However, Li Xiuzhu is still confident about his body.

"Your Highness can call the imperial physician next time. Although I know there is nothing wrong with my body, I must let you rest assured, big brother."

The prince nodded when he heard this. Li Xiuzhu had no say in this matter. The final say lay with the imperial physician whom he trusted.

"There is no rush for this matter. Let me talk about another matter first. I feel that the Crown Princess alone is not safe."

"So, brother-in-law, which girl do you think suits your taste? I plan to take in two concubines."

It seems like this is choosing a concubine for me? This brother-in-law is so nice.

"Is this appropriate?"

Upon hearing this, the prince glanced at Xiao Rongyu and said, "There's nothing inappropriate about it. If I can't ascend the throne, I think everyone knows what the result will be."

"This is not only for me, but also for you."

The prince's words made sense, especially for Xiao Rongyu.

If the prince died, she would basically not be able to survive. Not everyone is Li Er, and not everyone likes widows.

After thinking for a while, Xiao Rongyu raised her head and said, "Before I got married, I had a good friend who was quite famous."

"Oh, I wonder who it is?"

"The three beauties of Shangjing, Yu Xuanji."

The prince was startled when he heard this, and immediately asked curiously, "Who are the other two?"

"Well, this year's winners haven't been announced yet. Last time, they were Fu Yuehua, Su Chengcheng, and Yu Xuanji."

"Yu Xuanji and I hit it off right away at a poetry reading five years ago because both our names contain the character for fish."

The prince nodded and continued, "In that case, let's go with Yu Xuanji. Unfortunately, Cheng Cheng can't help you because of the teacher."

Li Xiuzhu rubbed his nose and said a little embarrassedly: "Cheng Cheng is at my place and will be here in two days."

The Crown Prince and the Crown Princess were stunned for a moment. Wow, this is such a ruthless move, they were all caught in one fell swoop.

"In that case, let me arrange it. Don't worry, she will definitely not look worse than the Crown Princess."

"You guys get ready to start. I'm leaving too."

Li Xiuzhu was startled and asked subconsciously: "Here?"

"What else?"

Li Xiuzhu's face darkened and he flatly refused: "Sorry, brother, I'm not used to sharing with others, and I don't have an exhibitionist fetish."

Li Xiuzhu paused, and asked with a cold look in his eyes, "Your Highness the Crown Prince has never touched my woman, right?"

Although women are like clothes, people cannot run naked. Anyone who dares to touch his clothes will be killed with two knives. They are all good friends.

"Well, no."

"And what are you thinking? Follow my maid out, and you will understand when she brings you back later."

As the prince spoke, he rang the bell and Cui Lian walked in.

"Your Highness, please give your orders."

"Take the Marquis to rest."

"Yes, sir, please follow me."

Although Li Xiuzhu didn't understand why, he still followed.

As soon as Li Xiuzhu left, the prince stood up, looked at Xiao Rongyu and said calmly: "Just wait here and cooperate with Xiuzhu to give birth to the baby."

"You must like him very much, so try harder. When you get pregnant, I won't take a concubine anymore."

"Otherwise, I would take in a concubine every two weeks. When it comes to having a child, I just want the result, not you."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Rongyu really nodded.

"Well, I'll be leaving first then."

After the prince finished speaking, he did not wait for Xiao Rongyu to speak, but walked to a lamppost against the wall and turned on the oil lamp on it.

The sound of the machine amplifier suddenly sounded, but it was not loud. Even though Xiao Rongyu was in the same room and not far away, he could not hear it clearly.

At the same time, Li Xiuzhu followed Cui Lian into a room, and Cui Lian also walked to the wall and turned on an oil lamp.

The next second, a dark tunnel appeared in front of Li Xiuzhu.

"Uncle, please follow me."

After saying this, Cui Lian picked up a lantern and walked down first, using her own safety as an example to indicate that there was no danger inside.

Of course, it may also be that you are simply afraid of getting lost.

I heard that the secret passages of ancient families were comparable to underground tunnels. There were not only passages leading to the daughter-in-law's room, but also to the concubine's room. Of course, there had to be a secret passage leading out of the city.

There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!

Li Xiuzhu already had extraordinary cultivation, so in his eyes this darkness was not much different from broad daylight. The only difference was that it had no color, only black and white.

As he expected, there was more than one road in the tunnel, but it seemed that because the destination was at the palace, they walked for about five minutes and stopped under a stone slab.

There is a brass shaft underneath. With a slight turn, the stone slab above opens under the operation of the mechanism.

When Li Xiuzhu went up, he saw that it was indeed the prince's bedroom.

But the prince was no longer there at this time.

"Well, my eldest brother is gone?"

Xiao Rongyu had a smile on his face at this moment, which was completely different from his previous serious look.

"He just left, and it looks like he won't be coming back."

He walked over, looked at the dark entrance, and said to Li Xiuzhu, "I never knew there was a secret passage in the prince's bedroom."

Li Xiuzhu smiled when he heard this.

"What's so strange about this? Rich men who are in high positions of power and afraid of death probably have tunnels in their homes."

"But most people can't use it, unless you know in advance that someone is going to deal with you. Otherwise, when someone gets close, there will be no chance to use it."

Xiao Rongyu nodded in agreement.

"Go wash up first. I've asked someone to boil some water and it's already been sent over."

At this time, except Cui Lian who had left the hall, no one was in the room. Li Xiuzhu no longer hid, lifted Xiao Rongyu's chin and asked, "Miss me?"

The delicate white skin and beautiful face shape are very attractive, especially Xiao Rongyu's eyes, which are as bright as stars and as attractive as a black hole.

Xiao Rongyu hummed softly before speaking: "Although I know I shouldn't do this, your appearance is indeed imprinted in my heart."

"Every night when I close my eyes, it's all your actions."

"I don't know when it started, but I miss you every time I open my eyes."

Li Xiuzhu blinked. To be honest, he felt it was a bit exaggerated. They had just slept together for two days, right? "Don't you believe it?" Xiao Rongyu sighed and said it directly, as if he had seen through Li Xiuzhu's thoughts.

"In fact, I wouldn't believe it if it hadn't happened to me. I never thought that one day I would believe in love at first sight."

Li Xiuzhu continued to blink. He didn't know what love at first sight was. He only believed in lust at first sight.

But there are people like Xiao Rongyu. Later generations have given such women a name: love-brained.

Apart from anything else, after digging wild vegetables for a person who didn't know how to live or die for his whole life, can you believe that her husband brought her a younger sister? And she happily accepted it.

Well, Wang Baochuan, stop looking around, I’m talking about you.
