Chapter 145: The Thief's Will Never Die
"Absolutely true!" Liang Shanyu saw that his attitude was softening and quickly struck while the iron was hot. "I met a miracle doctor today. He gave me a priceless prescription and told me to use this blood ginseng to nourish my body and support my pregnancy."
"Blood ginseng is precious. As long as your husband personally delivers it to the Crown Prince's residence and the Crown Prince finds benefit from it, you will still be in his sight."
A glimmer of hope gradually shone in Huo Siyuan's eyes. "If this really works, I'll be able to rise to prominence this time!"
He turned and shouted outside, "Someone, come and get a fine brocade box!"
Liang Shanyu secretly breathed a sigh of relief and quickly took the opportunity to speak.
"Husband, this blood ginseng is precious. Why don't you let me cut off a few slices to keep for the pregnancy?"
She had originally asked for this thing for herself, but then she changed her mind and thought, if she gave this blood ginseng to the prince, and the prince valued Huo Siyuan, wouldn't it be helpful to her too?
She stroked her bulging belly, her face pale and almost bloodless.
Huo Siyuan frowned and was about to explode, but his expression calmed down when his eyes fell on her stomach.
"Okay, I'll give you a few slices."
After the maid finished cutting, she brought a gold-painted lacquer box.
Huo Siyuan personally put the blood ginseng into the box, and ordered someone to bring red silk to wrap it, muttering to himself.
"This is a life-saving treasure, please be careful!"
As soon as Huo Siyuan left, Liang Shanyu collapsed on the couch, holding her stomach, with fine beads of cold sweat oozing from her forehead.
The cramps in her abdomen almost made it difficult for her to breathe.
"Hurry, hurry up and cook the ginseng soup..." She tried to hold on, her voice so weak that it was almost inaudible, "Just follow Doctor Ye's instructions and soak it in fine salt first..."
The maid hurriedly took out the few slices of blood ginseng as thin as cicada wings and carefully processed them according to the recipe.
Liang Shanyu curled up in the brocade quilt, shaking with pain.
She stared at the darkening sky outside the window, thinking that Huo Siyuan should have arrived at the Prince's Mansion by now.
A few hours later, the maid came in with a bowl of medicinal soup as black as ink.
The soup gave off a strange fishy and bitter smell that made people nauseous just by smelling it.
"Madam, the medicine is ready." The maid handed over the medicine bowl tremblingly.
Liang Shanyu took a few deep breaths before getting up.
My hands were shaking when I took the bowl of medicine.
She stared at the dark medicine in the bowl, gritted her teeth, and drank it all in one gulp.
"Ugh—" As soon as the medicine soup entered my mouth, an indescribable fishy and bitter taste exploded in my mouth.
She almost vomited on the spot and quickly covered her mouth, choking on tears.
"Madam!" The maid quickly handed over the candied fruit, "Quickly press it."
Liang Shanyu pushed the candied fruit away and swallowed the medicine.
She covered her mouth and dry-heaved a few times, and suddenly felt a warm current flowing through her abdomen, and the pain was actually relieved a little.
“It really works!”
She wiped the corner of her mouth, and a hint of joy flashed in her eyes.
Just then, Huo Siyuan pushed the door open excitedly.
"The steward of the Prince's Mansion accepted the blood ginseng, and even the imperial physician said it was a rare treasure!" He excitedly hugged Liang Shanyu and kissed her on the cheek, "My dear wife, this time it's all thanks to you!"
Before Liang Shanyu could say anything, the fishy and bitter taste of medicine suddenly surged up from her stomach.
She pushed Huo Siyuan away suddenly, leaned over and vomited with a "wow". Although she moved quickly, some things still splashed out.
Huo Siyuan was caught off guard and was splashed with filth, and his face turned pale instantly.
When had he ever been so embarrassed?
The warmth he had finally managed to muster dissipated in an instant, and he looked down at the vomit stained on his fine clothes, stepping back in disgust.
Liang Shanyu covered her stomach in pain and retched again.
"Husband, I didn't mean it."
Huo Siyuan was eight feet away. "Then you should have a good rest. I still have things to do."
After saying that, he turned around and walked out.
Liang Shanyu covered her churning stomach and watched Huo Siyuan leave without any reluctance.
Tears of humiliation welled up in his eyes, but what surged even more violently was the poisonous hatred.
It’s all Liang Weiyuan’s fault!
If it weren't for that bitch who was obstructing her at every turn, why would she have ended up like this?
Why should I beg Lin Mo Niang so humbly and endure all kinds of unbearable things, only to be treated with such contempt and disgust in return?
His nails dug into the wood of the porch pillars, leaving deep scratches.
Zhu Shu quickly passed the news of the second house to Liang Weiyuan.
She vividly acted out to Liang Weiyuan the story of how Lin Mo Niang was caught trying to sneak into the study and how Liang Shanyu was behind it to frame the Li family.
The autumn sun outside the window was shining brightly, shining on her quiet face, but it could not melt the frost in her eyes.
Lin Mo Niang and Liang Shan Yu are really evil-minded people.
In the previous life, he framed his maternal grandfather's family, causing his mother to die of depression. Now he wants to repeat the same trick in this life?
