"I'm in good health, why are you giving me medicine for no reason?" Xie Wanning frowned and refused, "If you don't tell me clearly what this is, I won't take it."
"…I can tell you, but you have to promise me that you will eat it after you know it."
After hearing this, Xie Wan Ning immediately showed a look of vigilance, "Forget it, I don't want to know."
He is addicted to pretending to be a romantic, but he is not a real romantic. Who knows where he got the drugs from, and he wants to plot against her again.
Wasn't it him who found something like the love wine and forced Pei Yuqing to drink it?
Lu Ziyan was so perceptive that he could guess her thoughts almost exactly by looking at her expression. He said helplessly, "I won't hurt you."
Xie Wan Ning laughed, "If you won't harm me, you shouldn't have brought me here!"
Lu Ziyan felt even more helpless. He withdrew his hand and looked at her in silence.
He became famous at a young age. He was aloof and taciturn, always showing a cold face. He was not good at debate and he rarely spoke at length even in front of the emperor.
Of course, even though he has lived to this age, few people dare to talk back to him. If anyone dares to make him unhappy, he will definitely not let that person have an easy time.
But this was Xie Wan Ning, he couldn't convince her, he couldn't bear to hit her, and he didn't even dare to be violent to her.
After a few moments of silence, he stuffed the pills back into the porcelain bottle and said, "If you don't want to eat it, forget it."
The fact that he gave up so easily made Xie Wan Ning curious.
But she didn't ask, just took a closer look at the porcelain bottle in his hand.
With just this one glance, Lu Ziyan took the initiative to say, "Wanwan, I can't accept you giving birth to another man's child."
"......!" Xie Wan Ning's pupils gradually dilated, and her eyes turned to the porcelain bottle again, "What kind of medicine is this...?"
Lu Ziyan didn't say anything, but his silence revealed everything.
Xie Wan Ning was really shocked. She pinched her palm hard and felt the pain before she was sure that this was not a dream.
It wasn’t a dream!
Lu Ziyan really prepared...
She was so shocked that it took her a long time to close her slightly open jaw.
Lu Ziyan felt even worse. His knuckles cracked as he held the porcelain bottle. He felt deeply that he was not a manly person by behaving like this.
"This medicine won't affect your body, but... you can't..."
"Stop!" His intermittent words were interrupted by Xie Wan Ning's words.
"You..." She raised her arm and pointed at her head, with a strange look on her face, "Do you want to go get treatment here?"
Who in their right mind would prepare this for someone else's wife...
Does he know what a marriage certificate means, what three matchmakers and six betrothal gifts mean, what worshiping heaven and earth means, and what it means to become husband and wife?
Being mocked for having a mental problem, Lu Ziyan was not angry at all. He just looked at her deeply and asked, "Have you reconciled with him?"
The sickly man had kept Xuanhua Courtyard as orderly as an iron barrel, and his spies could not get any information, so they had no idea whether the two men were living in the same bedroom or in separate rooms as before.
He also told himself that since he had released the person, he should not care about what they would do in this year. After a year, the person would return to his arms.
But every time it gets dark, he still can't help but wonder what they are doing under the same moonlight.
Xie Wan Ning had no intention of clearing up his confusion. Wasn't he trying so hard to sow discord between them just to make her feel resentful towards Pei Yuqing?
He succeeded, but even if she was really annoyed by Pei Yuqing's repeated plots, it didn't mean she was willing to make this man happy.
Lu Ziyan waited for a while, and when she didn't say anything, he handed her the porcelain bottle in his hand and asked, "Would you like to eat?"
Xie Wan Ning glanced down and said unhappily, "Keep it for yourself."
Lu Ziyan pursed his lips, and suddenly his finger bones closed. The porcelain bottle in his hand immediately turned into powder, along with the pill, and was blown away by the cold wind.
"Let's go. It's dark here. Watch your step." He moved aside to make room.
This was the first time since she recovered her memories of her past life that this person gave up forcing her without threats or inducements.
For some reason, her heart suddenly contracted. She froze for a few breaths before she lifted her legs and left.
Coming out from behind the dark rockery, I saw Er Qing looking around with a cloak in her hands.
Xie Wan Ning gathered her thoughts and walked over and said, "Why did you take so long? I'm going back now."
Er Qing smiled with shame: "It's because I'm not familiar with the road and couldn't find the room to change clothes. Fortunately, Madam Liu led the way."
Nanny Liu was the nanny that Concubine Shu had just assigned to serve.
Xie Wan Ning nodded slightly and didn't ask any more questions.
The master and servant returned to the hall.
"What took you so long?" As soon as she sat down, the man next to her shook her hand. "Where did you go? I went out to look for you just now, but you weren't there."
After being outside for so long, her hands were cold. Pei Yuqing frowned slightly and held them tighter.
"After I changed my clothes, I happened to see a row of corridors full of palace lanterns. I walked there and picked a few red plums." Xie Wan Ning pointed at the red plums in Er Qing's hand and asked him, "Where did you go to find me?"
"Just the opposite of you, I went to the other side of the Shuixie Lanfang," Pei Yuqing said, "Madame Liu said she saw you going that way, isn't that right?"
Hearing this, Xie Wan Ning's heart skipped a beat.
Subconsciously, he turned his head to look at his aunt who was sitting below the emperor with a graceful manner not far away.
Noticing her gaze, Concubine Shu also looked over and smiled at her gently.
There was a hint of anger in that smile.
It's as if to say, you had a secret meeting with someone without even considering the occasion, and now you want me, your aunt, to clean up after you.
...She knows!
