Chapter 52 -52: They Have Not Consummated the Marriage
Nanny Hua’s expression immediately stiffened.
Chu Nanli mocked, “You can continue to be Lin Fuying’s lapdog, as long as you’re not afraid of dying.”
The last sentence made Nanny Hua shiver and, without any hesitation, she quickly said, “This old servant will write! This old servant will definitely write it well!”
“It’s just… just that Concubine Lin didn’t let this old servant handle many things, nor did she tell me everything, so I’m not clear on all matters.”
Chu Nanli indifferently said, “Just write down what you do know.”
About half an hour later, Nanny Hua had finished writing.
Chu Nanli went over to look and was impressed to find several pages filled with writing, confirming Lin Fuying’s many wicked deeds.
However, the incidents listed were not sufficient to be used as leverage against Lin Fuying.
According to Nanny Hua, Lin Fuying wasn’t favored in the Prime Minister Residence and acted very cautiously.
After arriving at the Prince Residence, Lin Fuying, not wanting to lose her hard-won good life, was also very cautious. She only indirectly caused harm to the original body, and most of the time, she seemed to behave decently on the surface.
Chu Nanli felt somewhat disappointed but still collected the pages.
Then, she turned to Nanny Hua and asked, “Was it Bai Wuheng’s idea to use my child for medicinal purposes?”

She believed that Lin Fuying was the one in control, as ultimately, the one who benefited most from the destruction of the original body’s child was Lin Fuying herself.
Nanny Hua didn’t dare to hide anything and hesitantly said, “It was… It was Concubine Lin who casually mentioned to Young Master Bai that some ancient prescriptions used fetuses as medicine, which led him… led him to think of the child in your womb. The next day, when Concubine Lin feigned a worsening of her health condition, Young Master Bai then prescribed that medicinal formula to the Prince.”
After hearing this, waves of rage surged in Chu Nanli’s heart.
Just as she thought!
Just as she thought, Lin Fuying was a black-hearted white lotus!
How could she, who always acted like a saint, have the heart to harm an innocent fetus?
Nanny Hua, seeing Chu Nanli’s simmering anger and trembling even more violently, hurriedly brought up another matter.
“This old servant knows of one more thing.”
Chu Nanli looked over, her anger still apparent.
Nanny Hua said, “Concubine Lin has not consummated her marriage with the Prince.”
What?
Chu Nanli was stunned, suspecting she had heard wrong.
“Lin Fuying and Ye Yunting don’t have as good a relationship as it appears on the surface? Or is it because of Lin Fuying’s health?”
Nanny Hua answered, “It should be due to Concubine Lin’s health, at least…”
She looked up at Chu Nanli, not daring to continue.
Chu Nanli sneered, “Speak your mind, I have no interest in Ye Yunting.”
Nanny Hua, startled and confused by this response, hurriedly answered truthfully, “Concubine Lin and the Prince grew up together. It was initially determined by the Prime Minister’s wife that Concubine Lin should marry a nobility’s son who had a lame leg for the sake of an alliance, but the Prince couldn’t bear it and brought her into the Prince Residence instead. After that, he has always taken great care of Concubine Lin.”
Chu Nanli listened without expression.
She was already aware of this fact, but the original body was foolish, thinking that Ye Yunting regarded Lin Fuying only as a sister, and she herself also took great pains to care for her, not knowing Ye Yunting saw Lin Fuying as a paramour.
“How did you come to know about the non-consummation?” If Lin Fuying kept a lot of things from Nanny Hua, her wet nurse, then it wouldn’t make sense for such an important matter to be known to Nanny Hua.
Nanny Hua, seeing Chu Nanli doubted her and fearing for her life, quickly explained, “Once, this old servant accompanied Concubine Lin back to the Prime Minister Residence and accidentally overheard Concubine Lin whispering with her maternal aunt about this matter. However, this was over a month ago, and this old servant does not know whether the two have consummated the marriage by now.”
Chu Nanli nodded, asking no further questions. She then went outside, took a steamed bun, threw it to her, and locked the door before leaving.
Though Nanny Hua was pliable yet resistant to pressure, she also had a rebellious streak. Therefore, until that rebellious streak was crushed, Chu Nanli couldn’t fully trust her to do tasks in the chamber.
