Chapter 543 Pregnancy
He Huan, moved by the Seventh Prince's urgency, quickly turned and ran out. He chased her to the second-floor railing and found that the woman had just walked into the first-floor hall, just as Guard Lan strode through the door. The hall was bustling with people coming and going.
He Huan suddenly threw himself over the railing and yelled at Guard Lan, "Catch that girl!"
The woman's legs weakened at the shouting, and she couldn't run. Guard Lan paused for a moment before recognizing He Huan's voice. Like a gust of wind, he grabbed the woman and pinned her to the ground.
But after a while, the woman returned to the private room on the third floor. This time, the seventh prince was dressed neatly and met the woman in the outer hall.
He Huan forced the woman to kneel down. The Seventh Prince looked at the extra maid who kept screaming and asked, "What's wrong with her?"
Guard Lan replied, "Master, this is the woman's maid. She said she saw her young lady being bullied by us on the second floor, so she rushed out!"
The maid was overwhelmed by the tense atmosphere at the moment, and her voice softened unconsciously: "Who... are you? Why are you treating my young lady like this?"
The Seventh Prince looked at the woman kneeling on the ground. This time he had no preconceived notions and just looked at her with a normal mind.
The woman's face was pale, and her whole body was trembling. "Why... did you arrest me again? Are you really going to kill me?"
The Seventh Prince's voice was calm and reasonable: "You said you went into the wrong room, and your maid was waiting for you on the second floor, but why did you separate?"
The woman happened to be separated from the maid and walked into the wrong room. The guard at the Seventh Prince's door was called away, and the eunuch He Huan accidentally fell asleep. However, she had no memory of what had just happened!
How could there be so many coincidences? If there were, they must have been carefully arranged by someone! This was the truth that Queen Mother Dundun admonished herself.
The woman's tears seemed to flow endlessly. She choked and said, "The maid went to buy my favorite cakes, and I went upstairs first... Who knew... I rarely set foot here, so I got the wrong way and went to the wrong room... That's why the maid was waiting for me in the room on the second floor!"
"Master, why have you captured me again? I... I've already said that we are strangers. Let's just pretend that what happened today didn't happen. Let's just say goodbye! Please let me go!"
Guard Lan, who was not aware of the situation, looked back and forth at the few people. If he did not know his master's character well, he would probably think that the Seventh Prince was a bully who took advantage of his strength and bullied women and children after hearing what the woman said.
The Seventh Prince was no longer moved by this. He directly ordered: "Blue Wind City, take my jade pendant and invite the shopkeeper of Spring Breeze Tower to come!"
Chunfeng Tower is a famous restaurant in the imperial city. It has a very special background. Emperor Shenwu regards this place as his eyes and ears in the imperial city. Naturally, the prince also leaves people here to deal with emergencies.
The owner of Chunfeng Tower came very quickly. He was obviously a smart man and knew who this noble young man was. When he arrived, he knelt down to pay his respects.
The Seventh Prince was also very straightforward: "This is my brother's token, I need manpower!"
The shopkeeper took the bronze token, examined it in his palm, and immediately said, "Please give your orders, sir!"
"Go and get two or three of the best doctors on this street, quickly! Then go and tell my brother I'm here!"
The shopkeeper clasped his fists and turned away!
When the woman heard the word "doctor", her body began to tremble violently. She didn't know where she got the strength from, but she almost knocked He Huan off!
Fortunately, He Huan reacted quickly and subdued the woman again.
The Seventh Prince observed the woman's reactions from beginning to end, and his suspicions grew even stronger.
The maid kowtowed and begged for mercy. The Seventh Prince ignored her and turned to Lan Fengcheng: "What's wrong with you?"
Lan Fengcheng said honestly, "I received a letter from a child saying that Young Master Zhao had an accident on the road. I thought the journey was short, so I went to check on him. I returned in a short while and left a message for He Huan."
The Seventh Prince then asked, "Did you find the person?"
Lan Fengcheng shook his head: "I followed the clues and went to two or three places but didn't see Mr. Zhao! That's why I wasted time!"
The Seventh Prince's face was as gloomy as water. Now he had to suspect his best friend as well.
He looked at the woman, whose expression was becoming increasingly nervous and uneasy. "Do you know who I am? Do you know my identity?"
The woman shook her head, her miserable and helpless look almost broke the hearts of kind-hearted people!
"I want to go! I want to go! I shouldn't have taken the wrong path, I deserve to be bullied! Sir, please let me live!"
The Seventh Prince endured the dizziness and said coldly, "It's not that serious. If I have wrongly accused you, I am willing to kowtow and apologize. I will personally accompany you back home to propose marriage. I will ensure that your parents will not blame you in the slightest! But if after investigation, there is another hidden truth, then the matter is beyond your control! Perhaps you can tell me the truth now!"
The woman's face was pale and she kept shaking her head.
The Seventh Prince had no more patience: "Then listen to my story first! I am the youngest son in my family. I have been in poor health since I was a child. My mother has strictly forbidden me from having any contact with women. But my family is powerful, and people often find excuses to get close to me!"
The woman's eyes widened: "I'm definitely not that kind of person!"
The Seventh Prince ignored her and continued, "That's why my mother is even more wary. I heard about a story about a young man who had sex with a strange woman in a restaurant. Like you, she turned away without hesitation. But the young man couldn't help but keep an eye on her. Over a month later, she was found to be pregnant! Naturally, the young man proposed marriage. Unfortunately, over a decade later, the young man accidentally discovered that the child wasn't his! The woman had schemed everything out just to find a ready-made father for her unborn child!"
The Seventh Prince's eyes were ice-cold, and the maid was shaking like a sieve, obviously extremely frightened.
The woman was stunned, and after a while she began to swear, "I absolutely did not do that! Absolutely not! Sir, this is just a story!"
The Seventh Prince nodded. "This may be a story! But if I let you go today, I don't know if I will have another child in the future for no reason! My mother didn't prepare any maids for me, but I feel the same as when I woke up today! There is absolutely no difference!"
"If you are innocent, several doctors will be here soon, and I will clear your name!"
After hearing this, Lan Fengcheng had already sorted out everything. He was so anxious that his face turned pale and red. "Master, this is all my fault! I let this kind of person take advantage of us!"
In his heart, his master was like a celestial being, pure and self-disciplined, never involved in affairs with women! Even if this woman really walked into the wrong room, the Seventh Prince would never touch her! How could there be any sexual relations between men and women!
The Seventh Prince waved his hand: "If someone is plotting against us, we can't defend ourselves!"
The woman lowered her head, her eyes filled with panic! What should she do? She thought the Seventh Prince was innocent and had never seen a woman before! But she also didn't know that, despite his noble status, he had grown up and still hadn't experienced anything between men and women! This aroused suspicion!
In the stagnant atmosphere, the shopkeeper of Chunfeng Tower led someone in. The woman's face was frozen, and she struggled more frantically than ever before, "No! Let me go... I don't have any! I don't want to see a doctor! You have no right to do this to me!"
The three doctors who arrived were still a little overwhelmed, secretly guessing what was going on in the room! The Seventh Prince had already signaled directly: "Take this girl's pulse!"
He Huan was already upset about his negligence. He used all his strength to make the woman unable to move! The woman no longer cared about her dignity and began to scream wildly!
The doctors took the woman's pulse one after another. The first one looked confused, and the second one gestured to He Huan to calm the woman down so that the pulse could be taken accurately!
The Seventh Prince saw the woman's frantic expression and knew what was going on. He said coldly, "If you continue to struggle, I will bring your entire family to justice!"
Seeing that the situation was beyond redemption, the woman finally collapsed. Her maid had already fallen to the side, having fainted from fright!
The three doctors then took the woman's pulse one by one. The first two doctors were still a little uncertain and said, "It seems she's pregnant, but it's still early. We'll be able to confirm it in ten days or so."
"If you're really pregnant, it might be harmful to the fetus!"
The third one was an experienced old doctor. He directly confirmed: "I have determined that this woman is a little over a month pregnant! I have been a doctor for decades and I can't make a mistake even with my eyes closed!"
The shopkeeper of Chunfeng Tower, who had been watching from the sidelines, frowned tightly. Since the incident happened in Chunfeng Tower, he couldn't remain unscathed! Suddenly, the Seventh Prince turned pale and vomited loudly, but nothing came out!
"master!"
He Huan was shocked. He no longer cared about the hateful woman and ran to the Seventh Prince's side, preparing tea and handkerchiefs...
The Seventh Prince waved his hand, "Send someone to watch over the master and servant! And send some people to check where Zhao Botong is! Shopkeeper..."
The shopkeeper of Chunfeng Tower quickly bowed and said, "Please change rooms, sir! The building is completely responsible for this matter. I've already sent someone to keep an eye on all the employees who worked today! We're just waiting to investigate! Your...brother will be here soon!"
The Seventh Prince nodded, unable to stay here any longer, and was helped out of the room by He Huan.
