If not abolished

Chapter 162 Destiny

"What? You said the Crown Princess had a miscarriage. When did it happen?" Hu Shanxiang, who had just heard the news, stood up and said in surprise.

"It was said that it happened in the middle of last night." Yan Nan replied.

"Is it an accident?" It's no wonder Hu Shanxiang thought so. Isn't that how it's played in TV dramas? Except for those who are really in poor health, most of them are harmed by others.

But Hu Shanxiang changed her mind and thought, the Crown Prince has no other women except the Crown Princess, so it is unlikely that she would be jealous of him.

"I'm not really sure about this. Anyway, the palace and the royal family are very sad. After all, His Majesty just issued an order for the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess to stay in the capital to give birth because of the Crown Prince's pregnancy. Now... Sigh."

"That's right? The imperial edict has been issued, and His Majesty can't take it back. But the most important thing now is not these, but the Crown Prince's Consort. How sad she must be." Compared to the imperial edict to stay in Beijing, Hu Shanxiang thought about the Crown Prince's Consort's mood. She saw with her own eyes how happy the Crown Prince's Consort was when she knew she was pregnant. It has only been a short time, and the child is gone...

Hu Shanxiang sat in the room for most of the day without saying a word.

"Sister Lingzhi, what happened to the queen?"

Lingzhi shook her head and said, "I don't know either. Maybe the Queen is grieving for the child that the Crown Prince's wife lost? Our Queen has always loved children. In the past, the youngest young lady was basically raised by the Queen herself."

"So that's how it is. But it's not a good idea for Your Majesty to just keep refusing to eat, drink or talk. How about we go and tell His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?"

"This is not a good idea..." Lingzhi heard the Crown Prince say before she finished her words.

They had no choice but to stop talking and go out to greet them. Hu Shanxiang also came back to her senses because of the noise.

"See Your Highness."

The two walked into the hall together

Zhu Zhanji keenly sensed that something was wrong with her, so he waved his hand and asked everyone to leave. Wu Cheng even considerately closed the door.

Everyone left at once, and Hu Shanxiang asked in confusion, "What's going on, Your Highness?"

"I was just about to ask you what's wrong with you? I feel like something's wrong with you. Did something happen?" Zhu Zhanji asked.

"I just heard about the Crown Prince's Consort. I feel a little sorry." Hu Shanxiang walked up to him, sat on his lap, leaned on his arms and said sullenly.

Zhu Zhanji was a little surprised. She was still a little surprised that Hu Shanxiang was so proactive. He hugged her and said, "This is true... But I don't want you to be sad because of this, understand?"

"I just remembered the last time I went to Zhanqi's wedding. Do you remember you asked me that time? In fact, that was when I knew that the Crown Princess was pregnant. She was so happy at that time. I didn't expect..." Hu Shanxiang suddenly said, "It is said that it is not good to tell it before three months. Do you think it was because the Crown Princess told me this too early, so it was unlucky..."

"How can this have anything to do with you? This has nothing to do with you, do you hear me?" Zhu Zhanji said as he lifted her head up and looked her into his eyes.

"I understand." Although he said this, once he thought about it, how could it disappear all of a sudden?

How could Zhu Zhanji not know her character? Now he felt that it was all his fault.

Zhu Zhanji had no choice but to add, "In the previous life, Zhanhe didn't leave any offspring. I was so surprised that the Crown Prince's wife suddenly got pregnant this time. I think it's fate. If it's destined, it will happen. If it's not destined, don't force it. It's something they didn't have in their destiny. Do you understand?"

Hu Shanxiang nodded.

Zhu Zhanji also knew that she had to figure this out on her own, and others could only give her some advice.

Originally, Hu Shanxiang had listened to what Zhu Zhanji said. This was her fate, and no matter how hard she tried, she could not change history.

But suddenly, Hu Shanxiang thought of another thing. If the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess could not fight against the arrangement of fate, what about her?

At first she was worried that she would be deposed, but under the current circumstances, unless Zhu Zhanji was possessed by another body, there would be no such possibility. So she had to consider another thing: the child.

If she remembered correctly, Queen Hu in history had only two children in her life, both daughters, and the younger one was born too early. It was not that she favored boys over girls, but in this feudal era where only men could inherit the throne, there was nothing she could do.

If Zhu Zhanji had no son to inherit the throne because of her, she would be committing a sin.

"Why are you looking at me like that?" Zhu Zhanji noticed that she was staring at him.

Hu Shanxiang was afraid that he might notice something, so she smiled and said, "Look at your Highness."

"I seem to have heard this sentence before!" Zhu Zhanji felt that this sentence sounded familiar.

"Ahem, maybe I've praised Your Highness like this before." Hu Shan said with a red face.

"Then next time Shanxiang, remember to change your words, maybe say something like, 'He is so handsome, so elegant, so handsome.'"

"Your Highness, do you still want to keep this dignity? How can you still let others praise you?" Hu Shanxiang even blushed for him.

"I didn't ask anyone else to say this. Don't be shy. I won't let anyone else hear it." Zhu Zhanji saw that she had come out of her previous emotions, and shamelessly wanted her to say a few words now.

Hu Shanxiang immediately broke free from his arms and said, "No, I don't want to. Are you hungry, Your Highness? Would you like to eat something?" In order to divert his attention, Hu Shanxiang picked up a piece of cake on the table and asked.

"I'm not hungry now, please stop talking nonsense."

But Zhu Zhanji was not hungry, but Hu Shanxiang's stomach was growling.

"Hululu"

Hu Shanxiang immediately felt embarrassed and wished a crack would appear on the ground so she could go in.

"You didn't eat?" Zhu Zhanji immediately stopped playing around and asked seriously.

"not yet……"

"Someone, come and serve the meal quickly. How did you serve the Empress? The Empress didn't even eat, and you didn't know how to advise her. If something like this happens again next time, you will all be beaten." Zhu Zhanji naturally would not say harsh words to Hu Shanxiang.

"It's the servants' fault."

"Your Highness, I didn't like being disturbed when I was thinking about something, so I forgot to eat." Hu Shanxiang didn't want her mistake to implicate others, even the palace maids.

"It's understandable that you forgot for a moment, but they were born as slaves, and they were derelict in their duty if they didn't remind them. And if you want them to avoid being punished next time, remember to remember to eat in the future. Sometimes I can't accompany you, so you have to take good care of yourself. If I find out that you don't take good care of yourself again, I will watch you eat every day in the future." Zhu Zhanji threatened.

"Okay, I get it. I won't dare to do it again next time." Hu Shanxiang promised.

"You haven't eaten so fast yet. Do you want to have some cakes first?" Zhu Zhanji said as he picked up the cakes that Hu Shanxiang had just given him.

Hu Shanxiang picked it up and ate two pieces.

Hu Shanxiang had new worries here.

Palace outside the Han Palace

“Crown Princess, no matter how sad you are, you must eat something. You can't be hard on your body, okay? Crown Princess…” The nanny was specially sent by the princess to serve the Crown Princess. After begging for a long time, there was no movement from the Crown Princess.

"Greetings, Prince." After a while, Zhu Zhanhe walked in. After a day and a night, he had accepted this fact, and now he had to comfort his wife.

He walked to the bed, held her hand and said, "Shu Ning, please talk to me. Please don't torture yourself like this."

When she saw that it was Zhu Zhanhe coming, the Crown Prince's Consort moved a little. She turned her head and raised her hand to wipe the tears from Zhu Zhanhe's cheek.

Zhu Zhanhe felt her movements, "Shu Ning..."

"Your Highness, I'm sorry, it's my fault that I failed to protect our child..." Seeing Zhu Zhanhe, the Crown Prince's Consort felt not only sad but also guilty. She didn't know how to face them. How disappointed the Princess must be.

"Don't think like that. It's not your fault. As long as you are fine, nothing else is more important than you. Take care of your body first. Mammy said you haven't eaten for a whole day. Can you eat something?"

"Your Highness, when you say that, I don't know what to do..."

"Don't think too much. It has already happened. We still have to live our lives. Your child is watching you in heaven. He should not treat you the same way you do."

"Won't he blame me?"

"No, how could that be?"

The Crown Princess finally started to eat something.

After they had almost finished eating, the Crown Prince's Consort suddenly took Zhu Zhanhe's hand and said, "Your Highness, I have an unreasonable request, but I don't know if I should say it or not."

"You say." At this moment, Zhu Zhanhe would agree to whatever she said.

The Crown Prince's Consort thought for a moment and said, "Your Highness, I don't want to stay in the capital anymore. How about we accompany my father and mother to their fiefdom?" Although there was no evidence, the Crown Prince's Consort still had a hunch that this was not an accident, and she didn't know who wanted to harm her, so leaving this place of trouble was the best solution she could think of.

After listening to this, Zhu Zhanhe did not agree immediately. This matter was really a bit difficult. After all, it was he who went to ask his mother to find a way to let them stay. Now... However, if Shu Ning stayed here, he would definitely always feel uncomfortable. Leaving this sad place was indeed a solution.

So after thinking for a while, he said, "Okay, I will go to the palace to ask Grandpa Huang in person, and we will accompany Father and the others to the fiefdom. But if you want to go to the fiefdom, you must take good care of your body, otherwise I will not be at ease with you traveling like this, so you must eat well and recover your body."

"Okay, I agree." The Crown Princess nodded.

偏院

"What are you still packing? The Crown Prince's wife has lost her child. Maybe we can stay in the capital instead of going to the fiefdom."

"What are you thinking, Concubine? The imperial decree has been issued, so there is no reason to take it back easily. You are not treating it as a joke. Regardless of whether the Crown Prince's wife has a child or not, the imperial decree for you to go to the fiefdom is already there."

"How could this happen? Then everything is in vain..."

"What did the Concubine say?"

"Nothing... nothing?" Sun Ruoji was startled.
