Gu Chaoyan nodded.

It was right to bring her here. If not for her being here, no one would have noticed what was wrong.

Since they were at The Princess Consort’s place, Gu Chaoyan was worried that someone was eavesdropping. She looked about and found that they were surrounded by trees, so she suggested that they should take another step forward.

There was a vacant area not far ahead. It was much safer to talk about secrets in an empty place, where there were no hidden spots for anyone to eavesdrop.

Hidden guards were watching out for them.

Gu Chaoyan said, “The child didn’t die because of dystocia [1.difficult birth, typically caused by a large or awkwardly positioned fetus, by smallness of the maternal pelvis, or by failure of the uterus and cervix to contract and expand normally.], but of poisoning.”

“…”

“The poison was inside the mother. The Princess Consort is fine because she is an adult, yet the child couldn’t withstand it any more. So even if the child was born, he was doomed to die.”

“…”

“I glanced at the Princess Consort before I walked out of the room. She was not sad at all when she was faced with the deceased baby. There is something wrong with the Princess Consort.”

“…”

“Also, the imperial doctor is very strange too. He should know clearly that the child died because of poison, but he kept telling Lord Yan that there is hope.”

“…”

“I am reminded of one person…”

“…”

“Xie Yan!”

“…”

“Remember the time when we saved Xie Yan? He was covered with wounds, he said that the Crown Prince did not kill him directly yet ordered to have him cut every single day, so that he could live on between hope and despair.”

“…”

“He was doing the same thing this time.”

“…”

“And the Princess Consort said nothing about it either.”

“…”

“So I believe that the Princess Consort must be working with Zhou Huailing,” Gu Chaoyan said with a serious look on her face. She did not think that it was a very simple matter. She told Huaijin about it, because she did not think that it was Huaijin’s fault.

Zhou Huaijin had gotten very serious too by this point.

He suddenly realized what was going on after hearing what Chaoyan said.

He had been misled by his Elder Brother, who said that the Princess Consort was the person he trusted the most. So he did not suspect Princess Consort. However, what he had not thought of was that the Princess Consort was given by the King, so she might be expected to work as a spy.

And the spy must have been working for Zhou Huailing directly.

He had not thought about this because he always believed that his Elder Brother, who was not spoiled or considered important, was at least their father’s son, and that he should at least have the right to live a peaceful life. However, he was wrong – the King never considered his Elder Brother.

His Elder Brother’s mother passed away as a lowly-titled woman. He had been living a very unsteady life at the border. Therefore he trusted and spoiled the Princess Consort when he married her.

This was beyond what he had expected.

Zhou Huaijin suddenly felt very hollow. For one moment, he had no idea what he should say or what he should do.

In the end…

After a long while… He sighed heavily.

“I got it.” Zhou Huaijin said calmly, “Chaoyan, it will be morning soon, how about going back to Xinlin Mansion for breakfast?”
