Chapter 46
After hearing the ins and outs, although Mrs. Mu did not lose her composure like her daughter, she also became dissatisfied with Jun Moyi.

The precious daughter she raised carefully in the palm of her hand was already extremely wronged to enter the Qi Palace as a concubine, and the other party was so insulting that she simply didn't take the Mu family seriously.

After comforting her daughter to sleep, Mrs. Mu immediately went to find Mu Yuanlin to discuss the matter.

"Master, what do you mean by King Qi? Could it be that he really fell in love with Mu Ning, so he wants to wrong our Xi'er? If that's the case, I will never agree to this marriage."

Mu Yuanlin waved his hand, "No, no, if King Qi is such a person who is so lustful and insane, I won't let Xi'er have a secret relationship with him."

"But he asked Xi'er to withdraw the complaint against Mu Ning. Isn't this taking off the face of Xi'er and the Mu family and throwing them on the ground to be trampled on by others? Does this make Xi'er have any face in the future?"

Compared to Mrs. Mu's anger, Mu Yuanlin was much calmer.

After all, he is a veteran in the officialdom and has been in a high position for many years. His city and vision are much higher than those of a back-home woman like Mrs. Mu.

He guessed Jun Moyi's intention with just a little thought.

"Madam, you should go to Tingwei tomorrow and withdraw the lawsuit."

Mrs. Mu looked puzzled, "Master, why did you..."

"The emperor's heart has always been unfathomable, and His Majesty is in the prime of life, but in the past two years, the calls for a crown prince have become louder and louder, and King Qi has become more and more prosperous. At the last birthday banquet, the emperor deliberately used Mu Ning to beat us Mu Ning. Sister, if King Qi fails to satisfy the emperor in this case, I'm afraid..."

After Mu Yuanlin's analysis, Mrs. Mu finally figured it out.

"Master, that concubine will be born tomorrow..."

"Oh no!"

Before he could finish speaking, a panicked voice suddenly came from outside the door.

Mrs. Mu frowned in displeasure, came to the door of the study, and softly reprimanded the screaming maidservant: "You are so surprised that you have disturbed the master's work, my wife will not spare you."

The maid fell to her knees with a panic, "Ma'am, it's not good, Missy, she's bleeding a lot, go and have a look..."

Madam Mu's complexion changed, and she hurried to the Begonia Courtyard with her skirt in her hands, ignoring a word to Mu Yuanlin who was in the room.

"Ah, it hurts, it hurts so much, mother, I hurt..."

As soon as she stepped into her daughter's boudoir, the pungent and strong smell of blood rushed to her face, and Mrs. Mu's unwell face became even more frightened and angry.

When she rushed to the bed and saw her daughter clutching her stomach and writhing in pain on the bed, and the panties between her legs were soaked in blood, her eyes were tearing apart.

"Xi'er! Xi'er! What's going on, call the doctor, call the doctor! Hurry!!!"

Mrs. Mu yelled at the servants, and came to the bedside, holding her pale daughter in her arms with distress.

"Xi'er, bear with me, the doctor will be here soon..."

Mu Xi was crying with tears in her eyes, her lips turned gray due to pain and blood loss, and her voice was as thin as a gossamer.

"Mom, it hurts so much, am I dying..."

Seeing her daughter in such pain, Madam Mu immediately burst into tears.

She took out a handkerchief to wipe the cold sweat off her daughter's forehead, coaxing: "Xi'er, just bear with it, bear with it, you will be fine, you have your mother here..."

As she said that, Madam Mu thought of something, and hurriedly asked the maid to fetch the mahogany box from the drawer of the dressing table in her room.

The mahogany box was quickly brought, and Mrs. Mu took out a black pill from it, fed it into Mu Xi's mouth, and swallowed it with water.

The medicine took effect very quickly, and Mu Xi's complexion improved visibly with the naked eye, the blood under her body also stopped, and even her groans became much quieter, and she soon fell into a coma.

A stick of incense time passed, and the doctor came slowly.

After a careful diagnosis, the doctor shook his head at Madam Mu with regret.

"Ma'am, Ms. Mu took a miscarriage medicine with a ferocious nature, which caused a miscarriage and collapse. Fortunately, she took a good medicine to stop the bleeding beforehand, so that her life would not be in danger. But right now, Ms. Mu needs to stay in bed and recuperate. Prepare a few warm and nourishing prescriptions for Miss Mu, Madam finds someone to cook it for Miss Mu to take first."

When she learned of her daughter's miscarriage, Mrs. Mu was so furious that her fierce eyes almost killed the servants serving in Haitang Courtyard.

"Tell me, what's going on, how could Xi'er take the miscarriage medicine by mistake, if you can't find out the real culprit today, none of you will end up well!"

The servants of Haitang Courtyard were frightened and fell to their knees.

"Madam, please forgive me. The miscarriage medicine is for the eldest lady to drink. The slaves stopped her, but they couldn't stop..." Lu He replied weeping.

Mrs. Mu was so angry that she stepped forward and kicked him down, "What nonsense are you bastard, saying that Xi'er drank the abortion pill by herself, is she crazy?"

Lu He staggered up and knelt down, "Ma'am, what the servants said is true, if you don't believe me, ask Luomei and the others, it is really the eldest lady who wants to drink the abortion medicine herself, and don't let the servants go to you and the master, otherwise We will sell all the slaves and servants out of the house."

The others kowtowed and echoed, begging for mercy.

Seeing this, Madam Mu couldn't help but believe that the abortion medicine was really for her daughter to take.

But why?

She took two steps back in a daze, her face full of confusion and bewilderment.

She really wanted to find out her daughter's innocence, but her daughter was still in a coma, so she could only interrogate the servants in Haitang courtyard one by one.

But after a round of interrogation, nothing came out.

No one knew why Mu Xi did this.

"Xi'er, why are you so stupid..."

Looking at her daughter lying on the bed with a pale face and weak breath, Mrs. Mu's heart ached so much that she couldn't restrain herself.

Compared with Mrs. Mu's grief, after Mu Yuanlin learned of his daughter's miscarriage, his mood was relatively calm, and he was only silent for a while, and then ordered the housekeeper to take some expensive tonics from his own private treasury and send them to Haitang Yard.

The butler left in response, and Mu Yuanlin looked at the dark night outside the door, and said after a long time: "Misfortune is what blessings depend on, so that's good."

Originally, he didn't want to stand in line with King Qi so early, but his daughter's heart was completely tied to Jun Moyi, and she even had a secret relationship with Jun Moyi, which made him very passive.

Inside the Rejuvenation Pavilion.

Mu Ning was flipping through the account books of the past few months in the inner room when the shopkeeper Xu Niang knocked on the door and entered.

"Master, there is news from the Mu family."

Mu Ning didn't raise his head when he heard the sound, "Speak."

"Mu Xi had a miscarriage."

Only then did Mu Ning raise his head, and a little surprise flashed across his peach blossom eyes.

"Who did it?"

"It is said that she asked the maid to cook the medicine and drank it herself."

The surprise on Mu Ning's face deepened, and after thinking for a moment, she couldn't help but smile.

"She's a bit tougher than I thought."

Xu Niang looked puzzled, "Her reputation has been ruined now, and she has lost her status as the daughter of the prime minister's mansion. The child in her stomach can be said to be the only reliance to enter the Qi Palace, so she is willing to ruin it like this?"

"Fame is a thing, if you take it seriously, it is a constraint and a shackle, if you take it lightly, it is nothing."
