Chapter 3 Chapter 003: Shameless, hurry up and serve the master
"What's the result?" Cheng Yurong looked slightly anxious.

Bai Zhiban nodded to her with a straight face: "At dawn, I took the bowl of chicken soup and went outside to find Dr. Zhou. After his examination, it was confirmed that the chicken soup was poisoned.

Once a woman takes it, she will no longer have the chance to get pregnant. If a woman takes it, her body will be exhausted and her lifespan will only be three to five years. "

Cheng Yurong took a deep breath, her heart aching terribly.

You must know that she has been extremely good to Shen Qingqin in the past six years. Two-thirds of the property of the Hou Mansion was used to support the second house of the concubine, and most of the emperor's rewards also went to the second house.

It was because Shen Tianci, a concubine, saved Shen Hong's life during the border battle six years ago.

Shen Hong directly inherited two-thirds of the property of the Hou Mansion after his grandfather died six years ago, skipping his father Shen Zhongsheng and becoming the third Marquis.

The remaining one-third of the Hou's property was inherited by his father Shen Zhongsheng and his younger brother Shen Tianci. This was the will of the old Hou, Shen Hong's grandfather.

At that time, Shen Zhong was in great turmoil. He had been the heir apparent of the Hou Mansion for more than forty years, and he was just waiting for the old Master Hou to raise his eyebrows, so that he could inherit the Hou Mansion and live a happy life of spending money and being extravagant.

As a result, the eldest son became the fourth marquis.

If his concubine's youngest son became the Marquis, he would be happy for a while, but he never wanted to see his eldest son.

There was something wrong with the chicken soup that Shen Qingqing brought. It was impossible for a child like her to get the poison. Naturally, it was the second concubine Yang and Xiao Yang who were behind it. Of course, Shen Zhongsheng might also be involved.

Cheng Yurong's eyes were red and filled with tears.

Bai Zhi looked at the little lady in Madam's arms, and when she thought of what happened yesterday, she felt scared again.

The second roommate turned out to be so cruel and daring.

"Madam, yesterday... I think all three of them ran away for a few days, leaving only the two children in the house. They were just waiting to abdicate their responsibilities after something happened. It seems that they have been plotting for a long time."

Three days ago, the second concubine, Mrs. Yang and Mrs. Yang, followed Shen Zhongsheng to a temple dozens of miles away to pray for his wife and the Marquis for peace charms. They knew that the wife was about to give birth soon, but they still went to the temple. At that time, she I felt like there was a problem.

Unexpectedly, my wife unexpectedly fell down yesterday and almost gave birth. However, Pan Wenpo, who had been living in the house for a few days, had a stomachache all day long and could not stand up.

Aunt Zhou and several maids and servants, and more than a dozen people guarding them, were all sick, either with stomachaches or body aches.

Only Bai Zhi was alert and escaped.

"Bai Zhi, the Marquis will arrive in the capital in two days. We may not be able to protect the young lady... You go to the Cheng Mansion to find my mother and several sisters-in-law..."

"Okay, I'll take care of it right away."

……

"Auntie, are you awake? I want to go in and see my little sister..." Shen Qingqing called outside the house again, coming three times in the morning.

Cheng Yurong frowned and said in a cold voice: "Qingqiong, the little sister is still sleeping... Come and see her later!"

She refused three times, but she knew that Shen Qiqin would not give up.

Bai Zhi had only been out for three-quarters of an hour, and Aunt Zhou and the others had not recovered yet. There were only a few third-class maids waiting for her outside the house.

Hearing the footsteps outside the house getting farther and farther, Cheng Yurong's brows relaxed a lot, and she looked at her little daughter's cute sleeping face. Her eyelids were drooped and she couldn't hold on anymore and fell asleep.

A quarter of an hour later...

A little girl pushed open the door and tiptoed into the inner room.

She walked to the side of the bed and stared at the sleeping baby.

"You shouldn't be alive...don't blame me for being cruel..." Shen Qingqi picked up a pillow and covered the baby's face. When it came into contact with the skin, she accidentally discovered that the baby's neck was wearing a jade pendant with a vivid phoenix pattern.

The whole body is crystal clear, and it is not ordinary at first glance.

She fell in love with this jade pendant with a phoenix pattern at first sight, and intuitively told herself that as long as she got the jade pendant, her life would be like a phoenix in the sky.

From now on, the owner of this jade pendant is her.

Shen Qingqiu stretched out his hand to pull the jade pendant with great strength.

"Whoa whoa-"

The pain from his neck made Ruan Ruan scream, and when he opened his eyes, he saw Shen Qingqing with a ferocious look on his face. 【Mother——Mother——save me——】

After calling several times without seeing any response from Cheng Yurong, Ruan Ruan panicked and her neck hurt so much that she couldn't breathe.

She raised a pair of small hands to grab Shen Qingqing, but the result was that he was angered and his skin was scratched by sharp nails, leaving several blood marks and blood beads oozing out.

[Mother...save me...mother...I'm about to die...]

Ruan Ruan could no longer hold on any longer, and looked at Cheng Yurong for the last time with eyes full of tears.

Perhaps it was because mother and daughter had a tacit understanding, but Cheng Yurong, who was extremely sleepy, still tried to hold up her eyelids, and a blurry scene appeared in front of her eyes.

Shen Qingqing's back...

Baby on the bed…

"Ruan Ruan... Ruan Ruan..."

As soon as she heard Cheng Yurong's voice, Shen Qingqiu yelled, let go of her hand, and looked back at her.

"Auntie, you're awake. I was playing with my sister just now... Since you're awake, I'm going back."

Before Cheng Yurong fully woke up, Shen Qingqin walked out of the bedroom quickly.

"Wow wow wow..." [It hurts... it hurts... Mom, that bad woman wants to kill me...]

Shen Ruanruan immediately complained when he got a chance to breathe, holding the phoenix pattern jade pendant around his neck with his small hands.

A few drops of blood flowed onto the jade pendant, and were absorbed instantly. The red light flashed for a second.

Cheng Yurong didn't notice that she hugged Ruan Ruan tightly in her arms. This movement used up all her strength, and her eyelids couldn't open as if they were glued shut.

"Ruan Ruan, don't be afraid...mother will protect you..." She knew she was sick, but she still refused to sleep.

There was movement outside the house:
"Boss, please come out quickly! This is unreasonable! If you dare to ignore me just because you have a baby girl, I will ask the boss to divorce you! Get out of here! Let me in."

"That's right, if you give birth to a loser, you can just lie down all day. It's shameless. Come out and serve the master."

"Master, you can't go in! This slave will never leave!"

"We won't leave here, please leave."

Aunt Zhou and Bai Su stood at the door and stopped Shen Zhongsheng and Yang who were getting angry just after returning home.

The two sides fought and fought, from quarreling to fighting.

Cheng Yurong held on, but she didn't even have the strength to speak.

Although Aunt Zhou and others had taken medicine, they were still very weak and could not defeat the second wife. She was worried that they would be injured.

At this moment, another familiar voice came:

"Stop! Uncle Shen, this is the inner courtyard, how can we allow you to cause trouble here!"

"Except for the people in the big house, all the rest will leave, otherwise the family will take care of them."

"The Marquis will return to Beijing in two days. Old man, you'd better take a rest. Yang, if you step into the big house again, don't blame the Marquis for sending you to a villa to retire."

Mom, you are finally here...

The corners of Cheng Yurong's mouth raised, and she fell asleep on the bed.

……

Ruan Ruan was forced to sleep. She only remembered that she fell asleep after the jade pendant glowed red, but when she opened her eyes, an antique-style system panel appeared in front of her.

There is also a red phoenix glowing with golden light. It is so small that it looks like a little milk baby that has just hatched out of its shell.
