Yan Weichi shook her head slightly. "Looking at Princess Mingyang's expression, she must have prepared that soup herself. She tampered with it, intending to harm Zhu Cailing. My father simply used her own momentum against her, pushing the boat with the current. He knew full well that Zhu Cailing wasn't pregnant, which is why he was comfortable letting her drink the cassia twig and water chestnut soup. Then, he feigned ignorance, creating the illusion that he had accidentally injured Princess Mingyang."
Shangguan Xi understood. Because Princess Mingyang had once seen a prescription for fetal protection medicine drop from Yan Hanshan, she became obsessed with the idea that Zhu Cailing was pregnant, which led to her taking action today.
When it came down to it, she was the one who had harbored malicious intent first.
It was truly a case of "reaping what one sows."
