Lu Qingyan hesitated and whispered, "Now that I have married Your Highness, I am a member of this manor. No matter what happens, Your Highness and I will face it together. There is nothing I cannot tell Your Highness. It's just that there are some things that I myself dare not believe, so I dare not tell Your Highness."
Shangguan Ren looked at Lu Qingyan, waiting for her to continue.
Lu Qingyan recalled, "Yesterday was the same as usual, nothing much changed. It's just that I slept quite soundly last night and couldn't wake up for a while in the morning. I was finally woken up by the nanny. Also, you can't eat too much before getting into the bridal sedan chair, but you still have to eat something to fill your stomach. Mother cooked two bowls of white fungus soup, one for my sister and one for me. But I don't know why, even though the two bowls were exactly the same, my sister insisted on switching with me."
"Silver ear fungus soup?" Shangguan Ren suspected that something might have been added to it, but he didn't have any solid evidence. He was just speculating based on Lu Qingyan's few words, and no one would believe him if he told them.
“Yes,” Lu Qingyan said, looking like she knew nothing. “My sister’s favorite food is white fungus soup. If we have that, she doesn’t eat bird’s nest much.”
Speaking of the older sister whom the original owner, Fu Ziwu, trusted so much, Lu Qingyan smiled happily. Fu Zige was undoubtedly successful. Although she clearly didn't like this younger sister, she put on a great show in front of others, letting everyone know how much she valued this younger sister. When the scheme of exchanging brides was exposed and she became a suspect, she easily escaped unscathed.
As expected, the original owner of this body, Fu Ziwu, became the scheming person in everyone's eyes and took the blame for Fu Zige.
Shangguan Ren smiled and took a sip of porridge: "Nothing unexpected happened after that, right?"
"Yes, I felt a little dizzy when I got into the sedan chair, and it was my sister's maid who helped me. Otherwise, I would have bumped into the sedan chair." Lu Qingyan said embarrassedly, staring at Shangguan Ren with her big eyes. "Then I fainted at the wedding ceremony. If it weren't for my maid, Xique, explaining everything to me this morning, I wouldn't know what happened."
Shangguan Ren casually remarked, "It seems the person beside you is quite nice."
Very capable, just like Xiao Muzi.
Lu Qingyan accepted the compliment and replied, "Xique is indeed excellent; she has been by my side since she was a child."
After speaking, Lu Qingyan glanced at Shangguan Ren, blushing, and said, "It's all my fault, my health is too poor. I fainted on such an important day. Did those people outside say anything about Your Highness?"
If something happens to the woman on her wedding day, the man is easily labeled as someone who brings bad luck to his wife.
Shangguan Ren is now, after all, her boss, so Lu Qingyan still needs to care about what other people think of him.
After eating two bowls of porridge, Shangguan Ren put down his bowl and said with a stern face, "I don't know what those people outside are saying, I haven't had time to find out yet. But the Princess's fainting is not a simple matter. The imperial physician found something like a sleeping potion on the Princess. The imperial physician guesses that the Princess fainted because of that kind of drug, so it can't be blamed on the Princess's poor health."
Shangguan Ren patted Lu Qingyan on the shoulder and comforted her, "The princess is a legitimate daughter, pampered and spoiled at home. How could her health be poor? Don't think such nonsense."
