Chapter 13 Lu Yuan's Pregnancy
"Am I cruel or are you so ungrateful and shameless? Lu Yuan"
Lu Yuan saw her coming towards him.
"I'm talking to my sister-in-law now. Look how virtuous she is. She kneels on the ground and begs for mercy. Can you do that?"
Fu Danjun angrily retorted: "If you want to kneel, then kneel, but just don't affect other people's business."
As he spoke, he walked up to Lu Yuan, reached out and pulled off her earrings, holding them up to show her.
"This is my dowry, have you forgotten?"
Lu Yuan's ear was scratched and half of her head was buzzing with pain.
Fu Danjun ripped off the hairpin from her head and shook it gently for her to see: "This is also my dowry. You forgot, right?"
Lu Yuan's hair fell down and she was about to fight back.
Pei crawled over and knelt in the middle, holding Fu Danjun's thigh tightly.
"Please, don't embarrass my sister-in-law. She's still a child."
Fu Danjun laughed out loud: "She is not a child, but she is pregnant with a child."
Lu Yuan was so shocked that her eyes almost popped out.
How can you admit it in public?
"You are talking nonsense and slandering me!"
Fu Danjun looked at an earring and a hairpin in her hand, then turned around and threw them to Lan Fang.
"These are all our things, keep them well."
While saying this, he stared at Lu Yuan's head again: "There are still two hairpins. Do you want to return them to me yourself? Or should I do it for you?"
Lu Yuan was so angry that she grabbed it and threw it to the ground: "I'm giving it back to you. What kind of broken hairpin is it that I don't think it's fit to wear?"
Fu Danjun picked up the hairpin, wiped it with a handkerchief and handed it to Lan Fang: "Sell it for a few copper coins and buy a pot of wine for our servant."
Lan Fang smiled and agreed: "Even if you feed the dog a bone instead of meat, the dog will still wag its tail."
Lu Yuan was furious and wanted to hit Lan Fang.
Fu Danjun stood in front and said, "You'd better hit me first, make me bleed! Then go to the palace tomorrow and let the emperor see it."
Pei Xi was most afraid of offending the Emperor, so she tried to stop Lu Yuan: "Let's not cause any disaster."
In fact, he discovered that Fu Danjun was wealthy, and felt that it would be difficult to take action if he angered him, so it would be better to ease the conflict and slowly seize the wealth.
Fu Danjun took Lan Fang home and met the servant running towards them on the way.
"Miss, we have a distinguished guest. I am afraid you might be frightened, so I came here to tell you."
Fu Danjun frowned in confusion upon hearing this: "What kind of distinguished guest could possibly scare me? Could it be that the Lu family has come knocking on our door?"
Lan Fang shuddered and lamented, "There will be no peace for me this time."
If it was the Lu family who came to our house, wouldn't it be a big commotion?
The servant quickly waved his hand: "It's not Lu. The distinguished guest said he was from the palace and his last name is Xie."
The master and servant were dumbfounded again. Anyone with the surname Xie in the palace was either the emperor or the emperor's brothers or nephews, so they could indeed be considered distinguished guests.
Lan Fang covered her mouth with her hands and laughed happily: "Miss, your good luck has come."
Fu Danjun blushed suddenly, poked her forehead with his finger and complained: "You are such a chatterbox."
The carriage continued to move forward, and Fu Danjun's heart was pounding.
She couldn't tell whether she was happy or afraid. After all, Xie Changsheng was a famously tyrannical monarch, and not one for long-lasting love. Just because he was interested in her now didn't mean he would be in the future.
The words that Concubine Zhou said when I left the palace last time are still fresh in my mind.
It is said that the women Xie Changsheng favored were all because they looked like the women he fell in love with in his early years.
When Fu Danjun thought of this, all the romantic fantasies in his heart disappeared.
She made up her mind to meet Xie Changsheng to tell him about her grievances and misfortunes, and let Xie Changsheng be her backer. This was the most realistic and important thing.
There were two guards and two eunuchs in the house, all dressed in plain clothes.
The maids, servants and guards all avoided the area, and Lan Fang was stopped by the eunuchs when she was accompanying Fu Danjun inside.
Fu Danjun turned around and nodded to Lan Fang with a smile, indicating that she didn't need to worry.
As soon as I stepped through the door, I heard Xie Changsheng say quietly, "This house is nice, and it's quite comfortable to live in."
Before Fu Danjun could see where he was, he had already covered his eyes with his hand from behind.
"We're divorced now, and now we're comfortable. Shouldn't you thank me?"
Fu Danjun felt his strong and hot body pressing against his back, and a feeling of nervousness came over him.
"Your Majesty, please let me go first and let me pay my respects to you."
Xie Changsheng suddenly turned her around, his peach blossom eyes glittering with mischief: "Why have you become so reserved after the divorce?"
Two big hands pushed Fu Danjun backwards, and after he pressed against the wall, his lips pressed against her.
Xie Changsheng grabbed her and pushed her onto the bed again. He pulled out the hairpin from her head and played with it: "I hate hearing lies, do you know that?"
Fu Danjun's almond-shaped eyes flickered: "I know."
Xie Changsheng pressed a hairpin against her neck and said, "I've killed countless people. Do you know that?"
Fu Danjun's eyes welled up with tears: "I have lived enough. It is worth it to die at the hands of the emperor."
Xie Changsheng's expression was stern: "Why are you tired of living? Are the Lu family still trying to embarrass you?"
Fu Danjun covered her face and cried: "Although I divorced and left home, my parents are far away in Jiangnan, leaving me alone. The Lu family has withheld more than half of my dowry. I don't know how I will live in the future."
Xie Changsheng gently stroked her throat with the tip of his hairpin and smiled: "Even though your dowry was withheld, you don't seem to be short of money. You can buy such a big house just by saying so. I hate to hear lies. Say it again."
Fu Danjun's heart suddenly sank, realizing that Xie Changsheng was indeed an emperor and was not so easily fooled.
"I borrowed the money to buy this house from my father's friend who owns a jewelry store. Where can I get the money?"
Xie Changsheng was silent for a moment, then lay down and continued to play with his hairpin. "How much do you have for your dowry? If it's not much, the Lu family wouldn't withhold it. Is the Guanyang Marquisate so unsophisticated?"
Fu Danjun blinked twice and pretended to be nonchalant, saying, "It's not a lot, but each one is very valuable. For example, the glass kang screen is my grandfather's relic, and there is also a glass lamp, which was my grandmother's dowry. And there is another one..."
Xie Changsheng stopped her at this point: "That's enough, I don't care what it is, I just worry that you're lying."
Fu Danjun suddenly sat up and pulled his arm: "If the emperor doesn't believe me, I'll take you to the Marquis' Mansion to have a look. Let's go."
Xie Changsheng turned over and pushed her down, his sharp eyes piercing her face like nails.
"If you dare to lie, I will tear you to pieces, understand? Tear you into pieces, and then stand on the city wall and do a scattering of flowers."
