With one phrase "auspicious features for bearing sons," Shen Lingshu was bestowed to Prince Lin and became a lowly concubine.
Her legitimate elder sister Shen Lingyi, who married high...
Chapter 131 He is unwilling
Chu Cong stopped the boat and approached the shore. The moment he saw the green grass, his face suddenly darkened. "Have you asked for a doctor?"
"Yes, Doctor Lin is not in the mansion, and I am worried about the concubine..." Cao Lu looked panicked and about to cry.
"Qingwu, go get the doctor."
Chu Cong ordered Cao Lu to go back and take care of it.
"Your Highness, I will take Xinghe and go back first." Song Yuqing took the initiative to speak.
Shen Xinghe was reluctant to leave, as he hadn't been sitting there for long.
But he also stood up wisely.
"It's rare for Lingshu to get together with her family, so just treat her well." Chu Cong said while looking at Shen Lingshu.
"Your Highness, I'm worried about the concubine..." Shen Lingshu said worriedly.
"You are not a doctor, so just stay with your brother." Chu Cong patted her hand, turned around and left in big strides.
Shen Lingshu looked at Chu Cong who was leaving, her eyes flickered slightly, and she glanced at Zhu Xin who was standing beside her. Zhu Xin said, "Master, I will go back to the courtyard and get two sets of clothes for the two young masters."
"Go ahead."
Shen Lingshu waved her hand, and Liu Si led the two wet nurses to wait on the side. In the pavilion, Shen Xinghe stared at the two children without blinking, and said, "Sister, they look exactly the same!"
"If Mother saw them, she would be delighted."
"I want to take a closer look and tell my mother when I get back."
Shen Xinghe was muttering to himself, and Shen Lingshu's eyes fell on Song Yuqing: "Are your injuries all healed?"
Before, on Lingtai Mountain, when she and her child saw a wild boar charging towards them, it was Song Yuqing who crashed into the wild boar.
"alright."
Song Yuqing's expression was as cold as ever. He had no intention of speaking and was a little distance away from Shen Lingshu. He just looked at the child like Shen Xinghe did.
Soon, Zhuxin came back, bringing not only two sets of clothes for the child, but also some freshly made snacks from the kitchen.
"Ginger milk, try it."
Shen Lingshu introduced enthusiastically.
Shen Xinghe quickly finished her meal and said, "Sister, your snack is really delicious. When can we have it at Mi Fu Pavilion?"
The recipe for Mi Fu Ge was proposed by his sister, and Shen Xinghe knew it too.
"It's already fast, go slow, no one is competing with you, if it's not enough, there's more."
Shen Lingshu looked at Shen Xinghe, who was swallowing the food whole. The tall boy really could eat.
"Sister, I'm used to it."
Shen Xinghe grinned and asked, "Can I hug them? Just walk around here."
Shen Xinghe was eager to try. Just now, when the prince was here, he didn't feel comfortable bringing it up. But now that the prince was gone, Shen Xinghe felt at ease bringing it up.
"OK."
Shen Lingshu taught Shen Xinghe how to hold the baby, and then let the wet nurse let go. Shen Xinghe held the baby carefully, and even walked very slowly, as if he had just learned how to do it.
"The concubine was poisoned, are you okay?"
Song Yuqing glanced sideways at the now incredibly beautiful Shen Lingshu and asked, "Is this the life you want?"
"yes."
Shen Lingshu raised her eyes and looked directly at Song Yuqing: "Congratulations, cousin, on becoming the future prince consort. I wish you and the princess a sweet and happy marriage, a long and happy life together."
“…”
Song Yuqing tightened his grip, his cold eyes seemed even colder than usual. He said, "Concubine Shen, you..."
"Cousin, Her Royal Highness risked her life to save you. I hope you won't let Her Royal Highness down in the future."
Shen Lingshu interrupted him and said with a smile: "Her Royal Highness cares about you very much. For you, she asked me a lot about my cousin's preferences. Her Royal Highness is a good girl. I believe that after you get married, you will be happy and complete."
"Xinghe, aren't you right?"
Shen Lingshu glanced sideways at Shen Xinghe.
Shen Xinghe, who was absorbed in holding her niece, listened to this and nodded, saying, "Sister is right."
"I'm going to go see the concubine. You guys can go to the pavilion to rest and accompany An An and Bei Bei."
Shen Lingshu said, and stood up directly, walking towards the concubine's Qiutang Courtyard.
The faint scent of jasmine wafted by, and Song Yuqing's heart sank to the bottom. He had clearly found out that Ling Shu did not enter the palace voluntarily. It was the Shen family who used her aunt and Xinghe to force her into the palace!
A gentle breeze blew by, and Song Yuqing lowered his eyes. He just didn't want to give up, even though he had already passed the imperial examination.
"Cousin, the prince treats me very well. I will work hard to make merit in the army and support me in the future."
Shen Xinghe hugged his niece and suddenly said, "I don't want to burden my sister anymore."
drag……
Song Yuqing raised his eyes and looked directly at Shen Xinghe. The child who was just learning to speak back then seemed to have grown up now.
Qiutang Courtyard.
Concubine Fang was vomiting profusely. When Chu Cong arrived, Doctor Lin was treating her. He asked, "What medicine did Concubine Fang take?"
"No."
Concubine Fang shook her head and said, "Today is just like any other day. Doctor Lin, did someone poison me?"
It must be that bitch Shen Lingshu!
“That’s strange.”
Doctor Lin said this doubtfully.
"Doctor Lin, what's going on?"
Chu Cong walked in and asked, looking at Concubine Fang who was vomiting profusely in the room, "Did someone really poison her?"
"Probably... not."
Doctor Lin shook his head and said, "The concubine must have accidentally ingested Aconitum, which caused her to be poisoned. This medicine is often believed by the people to be a medicinal aid for pregnancy, but in fact, it is highly toxic. The mildest cause is vomiting, and the worst is death."
"But, the concubine said that she didn't take any medicine." Doctor Lin was puzzled.
Chu Cong's eyes darkened slightly, and he glanced at Aunt Gui with a cold gaze and asked, "Aunt Gui, did the concubine take any medicine?"
"Your Majesty."
When Nanny Gui heard the words 'severe cases can lead to death', she immediately knelt down in panic and said, "Your Highness, the concubine did take medicine, but it was definitely not poisonous."
"Whether you have it or not, just bring it to Doctor Lin for a look." Chu Cong said.
Soon, more than a dozen packets of medicine were brought over. Doctor Lin identified them one by one and said, "This is it. Aconitum. It's extremely poisonous. Fortunately, the amount is small, otherwise..."
Doctor Lin explained the effects of Aconitum in detail, which frightened Nanny Gui to death. Even Concubine Fang was frightened and hurriedly said, "Your Highness, I... I..."
"Pregnancy is not something that can be achieved overnight. Even if a concubine wants to take medicine, she must first consult a reliable doctor."
Chu Cong frowned and asked, "Doctor Lin, will this medicine harm your body?"
Knowing that she was trying to get pregnant, Chu Cong swallowed his words of blame.
"After stopping the medication, just take good care of yourself."
Doctor Lin spoke seriously. He said, "Forgive my frankness, but the concubine is in good health and can get pregnant without taking any medicine."
"Really?" Concubine Fang looked up in shock. If she could get pregnant without taking medicine, then why would she take those bitter medicines?
"nature."
Doctor Lin said with certainty: "All medicines are poisonous. The reason why folk remedies are folk remedies is that they will always cause some harm to the body."
"Concubine."
As soon as Chu Cong opened his mouth, Concubine Fang said repeatedly, "Your Majesty, I will never take these folk remedies again!"
God knows, she was planning to get a minor injury to lure the prince over, but who knew that after taking the medicine, she felt uncomfortable all over and vomited all over the place. She even suspected that Shen Lingshu had poisoned her.
