Children of Loulan

Chapter 405 Stone Table

At this moment, Dal at the side hurriedly explained: "That's because something happened suddenly in Prince Cheng's mansion, and it is said to be quite serious, so she became so cautious and careful. After all, you are about to give birth, and you can't afford any mistakes!"

When Hanguli heard this, she became nervous and asked quickly: "Something happened? What happened? Could it be that Princess Cheng's fetus..."

Dahl frowned tightly, his face solemn. He pursed his lips gently, then nodded slightly: "I just heard the news too. It is said that not only did the unborn baby in Princess Cheng's belly disappear, but also because she was already too old, this accident also seriously hurt her body. I'm afraid it will be difficult for her to get pregnant again from now on!"

Upon hearing this, Hanguli was shocked and her face turned pale instantly. She widened her eyes and asked in disbelief: "When did this happen? How could a child suddenly disappear? Could it be... someone did it on purpose?"

Dar sighed helplessly and said, "Just a few days ago, I heard that it was the pregnant concubine in the palace who did it. She was worried that her son would be born out of wedlock like her and would never be able to make a name for himself, so she made such a big mistake in a moment of confusion!"

Hanguli's face was filled with astonishment, and her voice unconsciously rose a few notes: "It turned out to be the pregnant concubine? She herself is pregnant, how could she have the heart to do such a cruel thing to someone who is also pregnant? It's simply terrible!"

"Hasn't she ever thought about this? Once this matter is exposed, she will definitely not be able to escape the blame. Moreover, what about the child she will give birth to in the future? The child's life may be ruined because of this!"

Dahl: "That's true! As the saying goes, if you harm others, you will eventually harm yourself. After King Cheng thoroughly investigated the whole story, he was furious and immediately ordered her to be kept under guard. Originally, King Cheng planned to wait until she gave birth to the child smoothly before taking any action. However, who could have expected that at this critical moment, she accidentally fell into the lake because of her absent-mindedness. The poor unborn child died just like that!" Dahl sighed, shaking his head in grief.

Hanguli couldn't help but feel compassion when she heard this. She slowly reached out her hand and gently stroked her bulging belly, feeling deeply moved: "Oh, the world is so unpredictable and unpredictable! Dal, go to the warehouse and pick out some good supplements for Princess Cheng. And comfort her and tell her to be more open-minded and not be too sad."

Dar nodded respectfully and said, "Okay, I'll go right away!" After Dar left, Hanguli gently held Bayer's hand again and said softly, "Come on, let's walk a few more laps, and then go back to the room to rest for a while."

Baier carefully supported Hanguli, his face full of joy and curiosity, and teased: "My Lady Crown Princess, in my opinion, the baby in your belly may be a lovely little princess!"

Hearing this, Hanguli couldn't help but smile softly, as beautiful as a flower blooming in spring. She shook her head and replied, "Oh, how can I know whether the fetus is a boy or a girl? I have to wait until the melon is ripe and born to find out!"

Bayer blinked and then asked, "Then, Madam, do you have any expectations in your heart? Do you hope that the child will be a boy or a girl?"

Hanguli thought for a moment, then replied with a smile: "Well... although I already have two sons, whether it is a son or a daughter, it is all very good to me."

However, Bayer did not seem to give up and continued to ask, "What does His Royal Highness think about this? Has he ever revealed whether he is more looking forward to the young master or the young princess?"

Hanguli couldn't help but burst out laughing when she heard this, and said with a hint of reproach: "Huh, him! He keeps talking about wanting a daughter all day long, and keeps saying that daughters are much more caring than sons!"

The two chatted and laughed all the way, as if all the troubles in the world were forgotten, and they didn't notice the subtle changes in the surrounding environment and the potential dangers approaching quietly. When they were about to return to the room, a palace maid suddenly appeared in front of them. She was seen holding a bowl of steaming hot soup steadily in both hands, and her steps were light but solemn.

When the maid saw the two, she immediately stopped, knelt slightly to salute, and then said respectfully: "Your Highness, this is the soup that Aunt Daer asked me to take care of just now. She said that it should be brought to you as soon as it is cooked!"

Hanguli looked carefully and found that the maid was someone she knew. She had been serving her for two years and had always been dedicated and conscientious, without making any mistakes. So, Hanguli smiled and responded softly: "Then put it on the stone table over there!"

After receiving the instruction, the palace maid followed the instruction and walked forward carefully, gently placing the chicken soup in her hand on the stone table. Then, she skillfully picked up the spoon beside her and began to slowly pour the soup into the bowl.

However, unlike Hanguli, although Bayer also recognized the maid, she did not relax her vigilance. She always held Hanguli's arm tightly, her eyes were as sharp as a sword, and she stared at the maid's every move to prevent any unexpected situation from happening.

However, what she never expected was that when the palace maid carefully served the soup and respectfully stepped aside, she reached out her hand to support Hanguli and slowly walked towards the exquisite stone table, a sudden change instantly broke the originally peaceful atmosphere.

The maid suddenly raised her foot without warning and kicked hard, and the stone table was turned over by her kick! The heavy stone table was like an out-of-control beast, rushing straight towards Hanguli with a fierce momentum.

In a flash, Bayer reacted almost instinctively. She protected Hanguli tightly behind her without hesitation, and then used all her strength to push away the rapidly falling stone table.

But just as she was concentrating on fighting the stone table, the insidious and cunning maid saw the opportunity, flashed, rushed towards Hanguli like a ghost, and hit her in the stomach. But at this time, Bayer was already too busy to take care of both sides. By the time she noticed the maid's actions, it was too late to stop the maid's evil deeds.

At the critical moment, Bayer showed amazing decisiveness and agility. She didn't have time to think, and rushed to the ground at lightning speed. Fortunately, her reaction speed was very fast and her movements were also swift enough. Just as she fell to the ground, Hanguli, who had lost her support, fell heavily on her body like a kite with a broken string.
