Chapter 93: No Love
"Didn't Doctor Lin say that Aunt Li is pregnant and has a miscarriage?" Shen Lingshu explained.
"You can't do it in front of the master, right?"
Zhu Xin was even more excited than Shen Lingshu, and said, "It must be Aunt Li who did this on purpose, to show off."
"She has never been to our yard, and she gets dizzy when she comes here. Maybe she wants to harm the master."
Zhu Xin became more and more angry as she spoke, and Shen Lingshu comforted her helplessly: "Zhu Xin, no one touched Aunt Li in the yard today, even if she blamed me, it would not work."
Li Susu in the script was able to give birth to a child safely because she was timid and cautious.
Qiutang Courtyard.
"What? Concubine Li was taken back to Fengdan Court by the prince? Or was she taken away from Youlan Court?"
Concubine Fang had just finished drinking her medicine and almost vomited when she heard the news.
"Did that bitch Shen Lingshu offend the prince?"
"Let her be arrogant. Is giving birth to two daughters a big deal?"
Concubine Fang's eyes narrowed with joy, and she immediately asked, "What did she do? Did the prince confine her? Or send her to the manor? What about her two daughters?"
Concubine Fang asked a series of questions, wishing she could see the scene with her own eyes. Didn't Shen Lingshu give birth to a daughter and be promoted to concubine?
The prince was carrying concubine Li away from Youlan Courtyard. If she saw this scene, she would wake up laughing in her dreams at night.
"Concubine." Nanny Gui hesitated to speak.
"Hurry up and tell me, stop dawdling." Concubine Fang urged.
Nanny Gui gritted her teeth and lowered her head: "Concubine Shen is fine, Concubine Li is pregnant."
The room was quiet. Aunt Gui lowered her head and looked at her embroidered shoes. She thought she would embroider a winter jasmine next time.
The next moment, Nanny Gui's embroidered shoes were soaked, having been scratched by the fragments of the teacup. She knelt down and said, "Concubine, I went to check today and found out that the flowerpot in Aunt Li's room was broken. I replaced it with a similar one."
“Damn it!”
Concubine Fang's back teeth were almost broken. "Such an important thing, why did you only find out now? Are the people in Fengdanyuan dead?"
Concubine Fang's face was distorted with anger. That bitch Li hasn't gotten pregnant in so many years, and I don't know how long it has been since this flowerpot was changed!
"Concubine, calm down."
Nanny Gui knelt forward, her knees bleeding from the broken pieces of the teacup, but she didn't care. She said, "Concubine, this is good news."
Concubine Fang glanced at him coldly, and her eyes seemed to want to gouge the person alive!
"If Concubine Shen becomes pregnant and gives birth to a child, and Concubine Li continues to be unable to conceive, will people suspect that someone has tampered with her?"
Nanny Gui explained, "As for Madam Qi and Madam Cheng, it's normal for them to be late. Nanny Hua went to Fengdan Courtyard. If she saw anything and implicated the concubine..."
Concubine Fang's eyes darkened. Hai Jiaren died on the farm, and she is not pregnant yet. If she is really implicated, even if she is a concubine, I am afraid that the prince will not be merciful.
"Besides, Shen's two pregnancies were both daughters, and Li is not lucky enough to give birth to the eldest son of Prince Lin's mansion."
Aunt Gui said comfortingly.
"Mammy is right."
Concubine Fang helped her stand up and looked at the blood on her knee. She said, "Madam, you are too careless. I have some good ointment. Madam, take it back and apply it on yourself. You can rest well for a few days."
"Thank you, Concubine." Nanny Gui said gratefully.
Fontainebleau Courtyard.
When Aunt Li was brought in, everyone was stunned. Then, a series of rewards were sent to Fengdanyuan. The news of Aunt Li's pregnancy also spread throughout the Prince Lin's Mansion.
"Concubine Shen didn't give birth to a son. Who knows, maybe Concubine Li is pregnant with a son."
"The prince personally carried Concubine Li back to Fengdan Courtyard, and many people saw it."
"If she gives birth to a son, won't she also be promoted to concubine?"
"have no idea."
“…”
There were many similar words. When Qi Qing heard them, she was filled with jealousy. She said, "Pick some flowers. Tomorrow, we will go to Qixia Lake to pick lotus flowers."
"ah?"
Zhehua looked confused. How could this be considered picking lotus flowers?
When Cheng Lanshu heard the news, she was just surprised and her eyes fell on her abdomen. Could she be pregnant?
In Meixiangyuan, Lin Baozhu asked, "Xiuhua, was Concubine Li really taken back by the prince?"
"Yes, many people saw it with their own eyes." Xiu Hua nodded affirmatively and asked worriedly, "Master, we don't know when the prince will come."
Lin Baozhu was a little dazed. For so many years, she pretended to be sick to avoid favor, and was even unwilling to serve the prince. She had been staying in her own small courtyard. Although her life was a little tight, she was also comfortable.
However, today she discovered that the days she thought were comfortable and at ease were actually... not good at all.
She wanted to go visit her uncle who had given her money for medical treatment several times, but Concubine Fang refused to let her leave the house.
If, if she was like Concubine Shen, and won the prince's favor? If she gave birth to two daughters, she would definitely be able to leave the palace.
If she got pregnant like Aunt Li, could she also go out?
The night is getting darker.
Shen Lingshu coaxed the children to sleep. Lying on the bed, looking at the sleeping faces of the two sisters, her heart softened.
Under the flickering candlelight, Zhuxin sat on the edge of the bed, nodding sleepily, like a chick pecking at rice.
Shen Lingshu took a pillow, worried that Zhuxin would hit the bed.
She looked at the flickering candlelight, and the scene of the prince holding Li Susu and leaving today emerged in her mind, as well as the past times they spent together.
At Qixia Lake, after she jumped into the lake, Chu Cong jumped into the water and picked her up. In the hazy moonlight, Chu Cong's handsome face looked like a banished immortal.
In the reed marshes of Nanyuan, with the starry sky behind him, his gentle and delicate kiss...
When she was giving birth, Chu Cong stood guard at the door and told her, he was there!!
During the confinement period, Chu Cong and I looked at our two lovely daughters through the screen.
Those scenes flashed through her mind like a movie, and the affection and tenderness in her eyes gradually faded away, slowly becoming firm and cold.
She knew very early on that the prince's love was given to the deceased Princess Lin, Gu Qiurong.
I spoil her only because she deliberately imitated Gu Qiurong.
Then, she became pregnant with the prince's first child.
Love is the most undesirable thing. If she only cares about love in the palace, not to mention herself, even the two daughters she gave birth to with great effort will be implicated.
Only by cutting off all emotions and love can you survive in this blood-sucking backyard.
The next evening, when Shen Lingshu saw Chu Cong, there was a moment of surprise in her eyes, and then she was surprised and happy. She stood up like a light butterfly and floated to Chu Cong's side: "Prince."
Her eyes were shining and full of joy, and she was not angry at all about what happened yesterday.
"Yesterday..."
As soon as Chu Cong opened his mouth, Shen Lingshu said very sensibly: "It's a good thing that Aunt Li is pregnant. She can't be upset. It's only right for the prince to take her back. How can I be so petty and angry?"
