Xiao Tang was caught off guard, but the next moment the man adjusted her sitting posture and forcefully pinned her to his lap.
[This is terrible...]
[This state is very easy to misunderstand, huh?]
If this happened in modern times, I'd sue you for molesting a beautiful young woman like me in a heartbeat.
She cursed inwardly, but on the surface she still managed to put on a shy and bashful expression.
"Your Highness, this isn't right! The General is still here; we need to... be mindful of the consequences!"
"I need someone to test the poison." Finally, the man's deep voice boomed down from above her.
Xiao Tang's brow twitched, and she wanted to say that it wasn't poisonous...
The moment she opened her mouth, a spoonful of medicine suddenly fell into it.
It's so bitter I'm questioning the meaning of life!
[Ugh—what the heck!]
[There are such terrible medicines in this world! The bitterness seeps into my heart and my brain; I'm so bitter I feel like a bitter gourd.]
[So this is the medicine I concocted is this bitter, tsk tsk tsk. Looks like I have high hopes for the big villain. No pain, no gain.]
Fortunately, this is an antidote with no side effects; for most people, it will only cause a slight diuretic effect.
After listening to her chaotic thoughts, Di Jingling scoffed and then drank the medicine in one gulp.
The suffering is real.
But it was nowhere near as bitter as the bitter look on Xiao Tang's face at that moment.
After he finished drinking, he looked down at Xiao Tang's comical, bitter yet shy expression, a hint of mockery flashing in his eyes.
"How does the medicine taste, Your Highness?"
Xiao Tang: "...It tastes awful."
This time, she didn't want to act anymore.
[Damn, it really tastes awful. In the 31st century, you won't find this kind of traditional Chinese medicine. At most, you'll find ready-made powders, pills, or preparations.]
After further processing by the machine, it becomes colorless and odorless.
[It turns out that life was truly hard for people in ancient times. So hard it's made me numb...]
Di Jingling was very satisfied with her performance. He pinched her chin with his two well-defined fingers and lifted her face up: "If the poison is cured, what reward does the princess wish for?"
The moment the word "reward" was uttered, Xiao Tang's mind flashed back to the sachet of Gu worms from that day. Coupled with the lingering bitterness of the medicine on her lips and tongue, it suddenly made her feel nauseous.
"vomit--"
Without thinking, she covered her mouth, violently pushed the man away, and ran out, retching violently.
In that instant, Yang Defu, who had been staring blankly and frozen like a statue, suddenly shuddered and exclaimed as if he had just woken up: "Regent, she... is amazing! You got your queen pregnant so quickly?"
Di Jingling: ?
Xiao Tang, who is returning: ?
Yang Defu turned to look at Xiao Tang, scrutinizing her from head to toe, finally settling on her flat stomach without an ounce of fat.
He nodded repeatedly, quite excited.
He seemed quite satisfied with Xiao Tang no matter how he looked at him.
"Your Highness is amazing! Congratulations on the great news between Your Highness and the Regent! This is a sign of pregnancy!"
Xiao Tang's eyebrows and lips twitched as she listened.
This general... is mentioned in the book; he was the regent's good brother and capable assistant.
What was it called again?
It sounds like a certain chocolate brand...?
Oh right, Dove!
[Dude, your imagination is running wild! Don't you even use your brain? I've only been married into the royal family for a short time. If I were really pregnant, your regent would be facing a huge cuckoldry...]
Have some common sense, will you?
The air conditioning in the room suddenly filled the room.
Di Jingling's face was even more unpleasant than when she drank the medicine. At this moment, she seemed to have a truly cuckolded expression?
Xiao Tang was baffled. [What's wrong? The villain looks constipated. What happened? Did the antidote work?]
If you really need to use the restroom, then hurry up and go!
He got up; as expected, everyone has to go to the bathroom sometimes, even if you don't want to...
Silk...pain!
Xiao Tang watched helplessly as the villain walked towards her and pinched her cheek.
