The legitimate daughter returns to the capital and embarks on a splendid life, tearing apart the fak

Yun Jin immediately said to Chu Wanqing, "Sister, there are three things we need to do now. First, immediately send someone to fetch Physician Zhao. Tell him that you have been experiencing severe abdominal pain after taking the medicine to prevent miscarriage, and that your condition is critical. We must get him here no matter what."

Chunzhi, who was kneeling on the ground, immediately volunteered, "Master, Princess, please let me go!"

Yun Jin looked at her and earnestly instructed, "Chunzhi, how your mistress lives in the future depends entirely on your help in maintaining her. Remember, your mistress is the Crown Prince's principal wife, and you are her head maid. You must show the proper demeanor."

Chunzhi nodded vigorously in assurance, then got up and hurriedly ran outside.

Yun Jin continued, "Second, summon all the servants in your courtyard to the courtyard, not a single one is allowed to leave. No one is allowed to leave until the matter is clarified. Have my two maids keep an eye on them for you; anyone who dares to run away is guilty."

Shen Qingyun called out to the door, "Guixiang, go and call everyone in the courtyard to the porch! Not a single one is allowed to be missing! Anyone who doesn't come is guilty!"

Yun Jin waved to Dong Xue, signaling her to accompany Gui Xiang out to handle this matter.

Yun Jin concluded, "Third, send someone to invite the First Prince. Sister, lie down on the couch now. When the First Prince arrives, don't say anything, don't mention Zheng Yu, and don't mention the bowl of medicine. Just say that you have unbearable abdominal pain, are afraid, and want to see him."

The more wronged and upset you feel, the better. If His Highness wants to punish Zheng Yu, you should speak up for her, saying that she definitely didn't mean it. The more magnanimous you are, the more His Highness will pity you.

Shen Qingyun also understood somewhat; wasn't this just a trick Zheng Yu had used before?

She immediately had her maid remove her hairpins and lay down on the bed.

After arranging all this, she still felt uneasy. She looked at Hongling and said to her, "Find a way to contact the Prince and tell him that I was framed at the First Prince's residence."

Hongling replied "Yes" and immediately turned and left.

Seeing that everything was arranged, Yun Jin walked to Shen Qingyun's bedside, bent down and took her hand, and whispered, "Sister, please lie down and rest assured. If His Highness still wants to protect Zheng Yu today, I will ask the Prince to intervene and ensure that Zheng Yu will never have another chance to turn things around."

Shen Qingyun closed her eyes briefly and said softly, "Jin-meimei, I will remember this kindness you showed me today. If you ever need my help in the future, I, Shen Qingyun, will go through fire and water for you without uttering a single word of dissent."

Yun Jin smiled and said, "Alright, if I ever need your help, sister, you mustn't go back on your word."

At this moment, Guixiang knocked on the door and came in to reply, saying that she had gathered everyone in the courtyard.

Yun Jin nodded to Shen Qingyun and walked out.

The corridor was crowded with people, including maids, old women, and palace servants sweeping.

Yun Jin stood at the door and said loudly, "You must all know who I am. I am the sworn sister of your master, and I am also the Ninghai County Princess personally appointed by His Majesty."

She paused, noticing that everyone had their heads down and didn't dare to look up at her.

She continued, "The reason I summoned you here today is because your master's pregnancy-preserving medicine has been tampered with. We, the county magistrate, have already found out who is involved. We also know who in this household is dishonest and who has betrayed their master!"

As soon as she finished speaking, someone suddenly looked up at her and then immediately lowered their head again.

But in that instant, Yun Jin had already caught the other person's attention, and seeing the favorability rating above her head, she smiled.

"Now, Sister Shen is suffering from severe abdominal pain and is waiting for the imperial physician to come and treat her. She has entrusted this matter to me, the county magistrate. I hope that those involved in this matter will step forward. If I point them out, the consequences will be very serious."

You must understand that the Shen family contains a royal heir. I, the county magistrate, must remind you of the consequences of harming a royal heir—it's a matter of exterminating nine generations of your family. Don't let your momentary lapse in judgment implicate your family!

After he finished speaking, no one dared to step forward.

Yun Jin pointed at the crowd: "Fine, since you yourselves are unwilling to step forward, then this county princess will not give you the chance."

She pointed to a young maidservant huddled at the back of the crowd and said, "You, come out."

The maid was so frightened that her legs went weak, and she knelt on the ground, kowtowing frantically, crying and saying that she knew nothing.

Yun Jin ignored her and shifted her gaze to an old woman with an evasive expression. When the old woman saw Yun Jin looking over, she quickly lowered her head.

Yun Jin pointed at her and said to Dong Xue, "Pull her out."

She then pointed to a servant behind the old woman who was responsible for sweeping and cleaning the courtyard, "And him, the three of them."

She then turned to Guixiang, "Guixiang, you should know their house, right? Take some men and search it!"

Although Gui Xiang didn't know why Yun Jin had chosen these people, she still picked a few trustworthy ones from the remaining people and led the three of them to search the house.

The men shouted indignantly, "Why are you arresting me?", "I didn't do anything!", "I'm innocent!"...

Dongxue kicked him, saying, "If our young lady says you have a problem, then you definitely have a problem!"

Yun Jin's gaze swept across the faces of the remaining people, and she said coldly, "This county princess reminds you, your mistress doesn't pursue your slackness on ordinary days because she's kind; but from now on, if anyone dares to betray her mistress, this county princess will be the first to not forgive them!"

After saying that, she waved her hand to dismiss everyone and turned to walk into the house.

Just then, Physician Zhao arrived hurriedly, carrying his medicine box, following behind Chunzhi.

As soon as he entered, he saw that Shen Qingyun was pale, her brows were furrowed, and she was sweating profusely. He quickly stepped forward and bowed.

Before he could speak, Yun Jin placed the bowl of pregnancy-preserving medicine in front of him and said coldly, "Is this Physician Zhao? The pregnancy-preserving medicine that Sister Shen took today was laced with safflower. Did you prescribe this medicine?"

Physician Zhao's expression changed drastically. He took the medicine bowl, smelled it carefully, and tested it with a silver needle. He suddenly looked up and exclaimed, "This...this medicine does indeed contain safflower! But it is absolutely not in the prescription I wrote!"

Yun Jin coldly said, "Imperial Physician Zhao, His Highness invited you to the residence to help Sister Shen with her pregnancy, presumably on His Majesty's orders. If Sister Shen loses her pregnancy today, do you think you can escape responsibility? Putting everything else aside, can you bear the charge of dereliction of duty?"

Physician Zhao was terrified, breaking out in a cold sweat. While wiping his brow, he explained, "Your Highness, this is a special case. The Consort has requested that I examine the young prince's pulse, so..."

"Physician Zhao!" Yun Jin interrupted him, leaning closer to remind him, "Why did the medicine cause problems right after she invited you? Don't you think about the implications?"

Upon hearing this, Physician Zhao thought about it carefully and immediately understood that this was a scheme targeting Shen Qingyun's unborn child, as well as Yun Jin, but it had dragged him into it.

He was so angry his mustache stood on end, and he gritted his teeth, saying, "Princess, I am not a pedantic old man. Tell me, what do you want me to do?"
