Qi Yuning frowned, "My new sister-in-law? How could she possibly use a sterilizing drug?"
Prince Jin said, "Whether it's used or not, we'll know after checking. This medicine was originally a secret recipe kept secret by the mistresses of those aristocratic families who had lived for thousands of years. When the families were marrying each other, the mistresses were afraid that having too many children would ruin the marriage, so after giving birth to two sons, they used this medicine to avoid having children. Naturally, it wouldn't do much harm to the body."
Qi Yuning said, "I only know that medicine is three parts poison. If you don't want to cherish Shuangjiang, I can take Shuangjiang back to the Qi family now. Shuangjiang is still young, and you can't let her be childless in her life. Princess Rong is your daughter, and you feel sorry for her, but have you ever thought that Shuangjiang also has parents, and her mother will also feel sorry for her?"
King Jin said, "What qualifications does Shuangjiang have to compare with Rong'er?"
Qi Yuning looked at Prince Jin and said, "You should also know that the late emperor almost handed over the country to the Qin family because of opium. Even now, he allowed you to bring opium into Shengjing, but it was only for Shuangjiang's sake. You bully my Shuangjiang, so don't blame me for banning opium from entering the capital."
King Jin glared at Qi Yuning, but Qi Yuning was not afraid at all.
"Prince Jin, you are my elder after all, and I respect you. But I told you from the beginning that Shuangjiang is not an ordinary maid. She is the daughter of my wet nurse and the one I have regarded as a sister since childhood. In my heart, she is much more precious than Princess Rong!"
"If Shuangjiang is bullied by you again, don't blame me for banning opium."
Qi Yuning walked out the door after she finished speaking. Unexpectedly, she saw the seven-year-old Princess Rong sitting in a wheelchair at the door. Although she was seven years old, she looked even younger than when she was six years old two years ago, and she also exuded a foul odor.
"Cousin's wife."
Qi Yuning looked at Zhao Rong's eyes, lowered his head and looked at Zhao Rong, without paying much attention, and left.
Zhao Rong looked at Qi Yuning's back, walked into the house and said to King Jin, "Daddy!"
Prince Jin took Zhao Rong down from the wheelchair and asked, "Are you okay today?"
Zhao Rong blinked and said, "Dad, was Princess Qi threatening you just now? I don't like Shuangjiang. Can you kick Shuangjiang out? I don't like her because she looks like my mother and she's trying to take everything from her!"
Prince Jin patted Zhao Rong's head and said, "Be good."
Zhao Rong sniffed and said, "Daddy, don't you love Arong the most? Don't you like Arong anymore?"
Prince Jin wiped Zhao Rong's tears and said, "Daddy definitely loves you the most, Arong, but Shuangjiang really looks a lot like your mother."
"But she's not my mother at all. How can she get everything that my mother has? Daddy, I hate her. I don't like her. Please get her out of the palace right away!"
When King Jin saw Zhao Rong crying, it was the first time since she was born that he did not agree with her wishes.
Zhou Jiayun's sedan chair arrived at the gate of Prince Jin's Mansion. She looked at the gate in front of her, feeling unwilling.
Zhou Jiayun was wearing a bright red wedding dress today. After all, this was her first marriage, and even if she was just a concubine, she was unwilling to compromise herself. She specially asked the Empress Dowager to ask the Shanggong Bureau to make a wedding dress for her.
However, after arriving at the gate of Prince Jin's Mansion for a long time, Prince Jin did not come out to greet them. After a long time, the steward of Prince Jin's Mansion came out and let the sedan chair enter through the side door.
"Concubine Zhou, the little princess is crying and Prince Jin is unable to leave. Please go into the palace gate by yourself."
Zhou Jiayun took a deep breath, but she was only thinking about the princess in her heart. If she could give birth to a prince first, she would naturally be favored by Prince Jin in the future.
As Zhou Jiayun's sedan chair entered the side door, she saw the doorman of Prince Jin's Mansion open the main gate that had been closed all year round. She opened the gauze curtain on the sedan chair and watched Qi Yuning being surrounded by servants from Prince Jin's Mansion and walking to the main gate.
Qi Yuning held Shuangjiang's hand and said, "If Prince Jin wants to give you medicine again, just say you don't want to take it. I don't believe that the medicine won't harm your body. You are a member of our Qi family. You don't need to suffer injustice in Prince Jin's mansion!"
Shuangjiang was very moved and said, "Thank you, Princess."
Qi Yuning heard some movement on the side, and unexpectedly, he met Zhou Jiayun entering the door. Qi Yuning glanced at Zhou Jiayun in the sedan chair, and walked out of the gate of Prince Jin's Mansion.
Zhou Jiayun looked back at the main gate from the sedan chair. She believed that one day she would be able to enter and exit through the main gate openly!
Qi Yuning did not return to the princess's mansion immediately, but asked Xiaoman to find out whether Chen Nian had bought the contraceptive medicine in Prince Jin's pharmacy.
After asking three pharmacies, I finally found out that this was such a cold medicine. The little medicine boy in the pharmacy still remembered it clearly.
Qi Yuning went to the little medicine boy in person and confirmed that it was the maid beside Shen Nian who came to grab a few doses of infertility medicine like the one used by Frost. She frowned.
Chen Nian originally entered the Lu family by relying on offspring. Now that the child has miscarried, she should value offspring more. Why would she buy contraceptive drugs?
Qi Yuning returned to the princess's mansion with doubts.
Lingling hadn't seen Qi Yuning for almost the entire day, so when she saw Qi Yuning, she nestled in Qi Yuning's arms, babbling and relying on him very much.
Qi Yuning hugged Lingling and smiled gently. He kissed Lingling on the cheek and said, "Good girl Lingling."
Lingling giggled when Qi Yuning kissed her.
When Lu Ze entered, he saw this scene. He smiled and walked up to Lingling to kiss her, but Lingling dodged and hid her head on Qi Yuning's shoulder.
Qi Yuning really enjoyed Lingling's attention to herself. She smiled and said to Lu Ze, "Who told you not to spend more time with Lingling?"
Lu Ze said, "I took her with me all afternoon this afternoon, even when I was handling state affairs. But I didn't see you at all today. I didn't expect Lingling to be so clingy to you the moment you came back."
Qi Yuning said, "I went to the Prince of Jin's mansion today to see the Frost Descent. I saw that Princess Rong looked like she didn't have many days left. Her legs seemed to have rotted away."
Lu Zeyan said, "Princess Rong has been addicted to drugs since her mother's womb. If it weren't for Princess Jin raising her, she might have been able to quit when she grew up. But Princess Jin refused to listen and insisted on saying that mother and daughter are connected and wanted to raise Cousin Rong herself."
Qi Yuning said: "Isn't this harming the child?"
Lu Ze said, "Well, Cousin Rong is so young and has a hard time breaking her drug addiction. I'm afraid she doesn't have many years left to live. When she passes away, she will surely be in great pain."
Qi Yuning sighed deeply and said to the maid, "All of you go down."
Ali, who was standing by, was very prudent and took Lingling away.
After the maid closed the door, Lu Ze saw that it was still dusk outside. He smiled faintly and said, "If we hurry, we'll still have time for dinner."
Qi Yuning asked in confusion: "Huh? What do you mean by hurry up? I have something important to tell you."
Lu Ze approached Qi Yuning, hugged her in his arms and chuckled, "The heir of the Lu family is of course a very important matter."
Qi Yuning looked at Lu Ze, very confused: "How did you know I was going to tell you about the important matter of the Lu family's heir?"
