Chapter 52 Miss, there is more good news!
"..." Fang Qianxue was stunned for a few breaths, and then she became even more angry and said, "This is someone else's sad story, why are you telling everyone about it?"
Although King Beining had a reputation for being cruel and tyrannical, he had made great military achievements for Dayong. Even if he had no merits, he had worked hard. As a citizen of Dayong, she truly sympathized with Xiao Mingzhe's situation. After all, he was still so young and there would be no one to inherit the throne in the future.
"Your Majesty and the Queen Mother for the sake of royal dignity, of course, do not allow the court officials to comment on this matter, but this is not a secret, everyone knows it." Lu Changqing leaned back in his chair comfortably, and felt relaxed when talking about the regrets of the King of Beining. "Over the years, the Western Regions have paid tribute to him with many beauties, and His Majesty has also rewarded several beauties to the Prince of Beining's palace, but I heard that they were not allowed to get close to him, saying that they were worried about female assassins, but in fact, he himself could not do it."
What normal man would refuse the company of a beautiful woman and remain chaste for many years? Unless he was a eunuch in the palace, the court officials all said that the King of Bac Ninh would probably not have any descendants in his lifetime.
"This has nothing to do with you." Fang Qianxue rolled her eyes at him, "When did it become your turn to worry about the affairs of the royal family?"
A sixth-rank official is really bored for worrying about the prince's offspring.
"I'm warning you not to have any improper thoughts about him."
Fang Qianxue looked at him as if he were a fool: "The eldest princess is my godmother, and the King of Beining is my uncle, what unreasonable thoughts do I have?"
The carriage was quiet for a while, with only the sound of wheels coming in.
Lu Changqing leaned forward and held Fang Qianxue's hand, and put on a gentle expression again: "Qianxue, if you agree to my taking Miaoyan as my concubine, you will still be the second wife of the Lu family in the future..."
"I don't agree." Fang Qianxue hastily pulled her hand back, feeling sick as if she had eaten a fly. "You promised my grandfather that you will never take a concubine in this lifetime."
If he had said this to her when he had just returned from Jiangning, perhaps she would have softened her heart and let Lu Changqing marry Xu Miaoyan, but by now the affection between them had long since worn out, and there was no need to compromise anymore.
"Aren't you... too unfair to me?" The man looked at her intently. "It was my fault before. Now I want to make amends. Can't you give me another chance?"
"You should first think about whether Xu Miaoyan would agree." Fang Qianxue remembered very clearly that in the original book, Xu Miaoyan was a person of strong character and would not marry without a formal marriage, and it was absolutely impossible for her to be someone's concubine.
It was this unique pride in her that attracted Lu Changqing, so it was impossible for Xu Miaoyan to agree to be his concubine.
When Lu Changqing heard this, his expression became serious: "When she wakes up, I will naturally explain this to her."
When the lights are turned on, the room is filled with warm light.
Xu Miaoyan woke up in the clinic and looked around in confusion: "Where am I?"
"Miss, are you awake?" Xiuqiu quickly put down the medicine bowl in her hand and walked over quickly. "This is Jisi Medical Clinic. You fainted in the palace, and Master Lu had someone send you here."
"Lu Lang, where is he?" Xu Miaoyan held onto the edge of the bed and struggled to half sit up.
Lu Changqing usually stays by her side all day long. Now that she is injured and unconscious, why is he not here?
"Mr. Lu has returned home and asked the doctors and servants in the clinic to take care of you," Xiuqiu said happily, "Miss, there is good news!"
"What good news?" Xu Miaoyan's head was still dizzy.
"You are pregnant! The doctor just told you that. We haven't told Mr. Lu the good news yet!" Xiuqiu said with great joy, picking up the medicine bowl on the table. "This is the medicine for preserving the pregnancy prescribed by the doctor. Miss, please take a sip."
The black medicine was brought to her lips, but Xu Miaoyan suddenly pushed it away: "I can't take it! What kind of medicine is this to preserve the pregnancy? The doctor must have been arranged by Fang. She wants to make me miscarry."
She thought over and over again about what happened in the palace during the day and felt that someone was trying to harm her. Perhaps the medicine powder was swapped, otherwise it would not have worked on Qilin, right?
She only remembered that Qilin lowered his head and tried a bite of the food dipped in medicine powder, and suddenly he went crazy and broke free from the chains. Then, somehow, the bloody mouth and nostrils of the beast appeared in front of her eyes.
It was an experience I cannot bear to look back on.
Xu Miaoyan put her hand on her forehead and closed her eyes.
"Ah?" Xiuqiu looked down at the medicine in the bowl, thought for a moment and said, "Miss, this clinic was arranged by Second Master Lu, and Second Madam doesn't know you're here, so I'm sure there won't be any problems with the medicine."
"Anyway, I don't want to drink!" Xu Miaoyan waved her hands irritably, "I'm really upset, you can leave first!"
Why? Why didn't Lu Changqing come to see her?
"Yes." Hydrangea retreated reluctantly.
As soon as she reached the door, the little maid rolled her eyes and called a servant from the Lu Mansion over: "Go back to the Lu family and tell them that our young lady has woken up."
