My Dear Wife, Please Be Gentle!-Chapter 1225 - 1231: Giving you an Explanation

"Madams, are any of you injured?"

Chen Yiling supported Qiao Duo’er to sit down, took out a Fetus Protection Pill to feed her, and after observing for a good while, finally answered, "It’s nothing serious."

"Madam’s complexion doesn’t look good. You should still see a doctor. I will go and inform the Prince right away."

Duo’er waved her hand, "I’ll be fine after resting here for a bit. You all make sure to deliver this maid and the pastries to the Queen without causing too much of a commotion."

"But... that’s against the rules," the guard said, clearly troubled.

"Today is Prince Liang’s big day. Making a fuss will only lead to ridicule. Just do as I say," Qiao Duo’er said firmly.

She simply wanted to give the Queen a warning, not to convict Yun Piaopiao.

After pondering for a moment, the guard nodded, "Then Madam, please rest well. I will send someone over to protect you all immediately."

Once everyone had left, Chen Yiling patted her chest, still shaken by the recent events.

But she quickly became excited, "Duo’er, was I not very brave today?"

"I owe you my thanks," Qiao Duo’er nodded.

If it hadn’t been for Chen Yiling’s timely reaction, the outcome would have been difficult to predict.

A radiant smile spread across Chen Yiling’s face, "Haha, since meeting you, this is the one time I haven’t been a burden. Now I have something to boast about. Also, do you think Yun Piaopiao is foolish?"

Shouldn’t her current priority be to establish a firm footing in the Mansion of King Liang?

Yet she attacked Qiao Duo, wasn’t that just handing the leverage to someone else?

"Duo Meifang hasn’t released any new products recently, she’s anxious," Qiao Duo explained.

"You’re the smart one. With Prince Liang using her to acquire the formula, he certainly doesn’t care about her as much as before, but... can you handle it?" Chen Yiling also saw the crux of the matter.

But her worry deepened.

If it were before, ten Yun Piaopiaos wouldn’t matter, but now that Qiao Duo was pregnant, she was easily calculated against.

Qiao Duo’s fingers tapped on the stone table, "What do you think?"

She had never intended to show weakness from the beginning, nor had she ever planned on giving away Duo Meifang, the business she had painstakingly managed, to anyone.

Now, the only thing she had to wait for was the east wind, namely the Water Cloud Gang’s Fang Ying.

Tan Zhenghong was already in contact, and there should be a response in a few days.

Once the business deal was nearly settled, it would be the birthday of the Medicine God of Medicine King Valley, and the former Medicine King would also return to the Valley; it would be the perfect time to ask him to confirm the condition of the fetus.

With the protection of Medicine King Valley, no one could trouble her.

Chen Yiling narrowed her eyes slightly, "Just say the word if you need anything. My father has already made his political stance clear; he will definitely spare no effort in striking at the Empress’s Bloodline."

Qiao Duo nodded; she and both the Qin Family and Chen Family had long been on the same boat, and she had no intention of being reserved.

It wasn’t long before Queen Liang arrived with people.

"I’ve had the pastries examined, and they contain a large amount of cold-natured medicine, harmful to the fetus. I will have the Imperial Physician check your pulse right away."

Queen Liang looked anxious. If something happened to Duo’er, as the head of the household, she would not be off the hook either.

Qiao Duo nodded slightly, "Thank you, but I did not touch the pastries."

Still, to be on the safe side, the Imperial Physician gave her a thorough pulse diagnosis.

"Your Majesty, Mrs. Tan is just a bit shocked and is otherwise unharmed, but she still needs to rest for a few days."

"That’s good to hear. Thanks to Mrs. Tan’s alertness. Rest assured, I will give you a proper account for this matter."

A gleam flashed in Queen Liang’s eyes. Yun Piaopiao had only just entered the mansion and dared to place someone beside her, committing such a malicious act. She would use this opportunity to suppress her rigorously.

And preferably... make sure she never had the chance to turn the tables again.
