As she spoke, Shu Lingxi glanced down at the teacup.

Upon seeing this, Lan Qingtian quickly picked up the teacup and personally handed it to his wife, adding in agreement, "Exactly! What a coincidence! Neither of these two, grandfather and grandson, clearly had good intentions!"

Qin Kou'er nodded in surprise upon hearing this, "If that's the case, it is quite a coincidence! Moreover, based on my understanding of Lan Xiuyuan, he wouldn't be unaware of who the real master of the Jiang family is. His words were somewhat deliberate!"

Shu Lingxi nodded, looking at Qin Kou'er with admiration, "Kou'er is indeed clever. Lan Xiuyuan deliberately wanted me to say Jiang Meixin's name. However, I still can't figure out what his intentions are!"

Lan Qingtian immediately curled her lip and muttered under her breath, "Hmph! What good intentions could someone with such a cunning mind have? Just a few days ago I heard that he was deeply in love with Miss Qin and relentlessly pursued her, but I didn't expect him to fall for that Jiang family girl so quickly! Bah! My brother is devoted to my sister-in-law, and I am loyal to my wife, but I never expected that he would produce such a rotten romantic! It must be from his maternal family; none of them are good people!"

Lan Qingtian's casual remark surprised both Qin Kou'er and Shu Lingxi. They exchanged a glance, wondering if Lan Xiuyuan's purpose would ultimately revolve back to Qin Kou'er.

While the group was chatting, the head steward came in again and said that Jun Yannuo had been waiting for a while.

Upon hearing this, Shu Lingxi quickly and excitedly said, "Quick! Quickly, please invite Mr. Jun in!"

Lan Qingtian had never seen his wife show such a surprised and delighted expression towards any other man before, and he immediately looked at her warily: "Who is Mr. Jun? Why are you so happy?"

Seeing Lan Qingtian's unfriendly expression, Qin Kou'er quickly stood up and explained with a smile, "Your Highness, Mr. Jun is Jun Yannuo, the chief steward of my Qin Tian Pavilion. I sent him here to examine the Princess Consort!"

Upon hearing about seeing a doctor, Lan Qingtian immediately became anxious and quickly pulled Shu Lingxi to look through the medical records. "Wife, are you sick? What's wrong? I'll go find the imperial physician!"

Shu Lingxi glared at Lan Qingtian and said irritably, "I feel uncomfortable all over without a son!"

After saying that, he gave Lan Qingtian a warning look, "Let me tell you! When Mr. Jun examines me, you better not say a word! If you dare to say anything that offends Mr. Jun, you'll see how I deal with you!"

Lan Qingtian immediately frowned and glanced awkwardly at Qin Kou'er. Qin Kou'er quickly turned her head away, pretending that she hadn't seen anything.

"Wife, keep your voice down! Miss Qin is still here, give me some face! Fine, I won't say anything in a bit, okay?"

Qin Kou'er glanced at the window frame and sighed inwardly. This Seventh Prince really dotes on his wife.

Jun Yannuo followed the steward in and, upon seeing Lan Qingtian and his wife, quickly knelt and kowtowed, "Jun Yannuo greets Your Highness and Your Highness!"

"Quickly! Get up! Mr. Jun, there's no need for such a grand ceremony!"

Before Lan Qingtian could speak, Shu Lingxi had someone help Jun Yannuo up and offered him a seat next to Qin Kou'er.

Qin Kou'er turned to look at Jun Yannuo and asked softly, "Did you bring the medicine kit?"

Jun Yannuo nodded, "I brought them all! I don't know who they're for to treat!"

Qin Kou'er said with a smile, "Go and show this to the Princess. Let's see when our royal residence will have a little prince."

Qin Kou'er's words made Jun Yannuo understand what was going on.

When investigating this prince before, he paid special attention to the fact that he had no children. Now, hearing Qin Kou'er ask him to examine her, he immediately nodded, then stood up with a smile, looking gently at Shu Lingxi and saying softly, "I wonder if Your Highness is available now, so that Yan Nuo can take your pulse!"

Shu Lingxi was initially quite shy about this matter and didn't like others mentioning it, but seeing Jun Yannuo's radiant face and reassuring handsome features, she couldn't help but stand up shyly, walk over slowly, and say with a smile in a low voice, "Then I'll trouble you, sir!"

As soon as Qin Kou'er saw Shu Lingxi approaching, she quickly stood up and went over to support her, then helped her sit down on a stool. She also asked a servant to bring a soft cushion so she could gently place her arm on it.

Jun Yannuo didn't say much, but went to sit down next door and gently placed his long, slender, white fingers on Shu Lingxi's wrist.

Lan Qingtian had already given up hope on the matter, and to avoid upsetting Shu Lingxi, he hadn't even allowed anyone to mention it. Now, seeing Qin Kou'er, of all times, bring his head steward to handle it, he walked over with great displeasure, gently pushed Qin Kou'er aside, and stood behind Shu Lingxi like a tyrant.

Qin Kou'er was not annoyed by Lan Qingtian's rudeness. She smiled slightly and stood aside without saying a word.

Jun Yannuo took his pulse for a long time, but his face remained calm and expressionless.

But the more he acted this way, the more uncertain Shu Lingxi felt.

After a long while, seeing that Jun Yannuo still hadn't spoken, Shu Lingxi couldn't hold back any longer. Just as she was about to speak, Lan Qingtian behind her, who had already reached her limit, interrupted impatiently, saying, "Hey, you quack doctor, do you even have any skills? You've been looking for so long, can't you say something? If you can't figure it out, hurry up and say something so I can throw you out! Don't try to take advantage of my wife!"

Qin Kou'er couldn't believe that Lan Qingtian would say such a thing, and she couldn't help but burst out laughing.

Shu Lingxi was furious. She turned around and pinched Lan Qingtian hard with her other hand, making Lan Qingtian wince in exasperation.
