Even King Zhao Tinghao of Yan felt that it was Liu Ruyue's trick to win favor after hearing Taohong's words.
However, when he thought of the soft and charming little woman in his arms under the dim candlelight last night, he suddenly felt itchy and stood up and followed Taohong towards Liu Ruyue's courtyard.
Seeing the prince stand up, Taohong was shocked: The prince is actually willing to see that woman?
Oh my god, is that woman really that different to the prince?
Fortunately, I came to invite the prince, otherwise when the prince went himself, and that woman complained, wouldn’t I end up in a miserable situation?
On the other side, after Taohong went to invite the prince, Liu Ruyue asked Liu Lu to go to the main kitchen to serve dinner.
Seeing Liu Ruyue's anxious look, Liu Lu cursed secretly in her heart: The princess is right, the baby born from my concubine's belly is lowly, and she has entered the gate of the palace, but she still uses some little tricks to win favor.
In her mind, Liu Ruyue had called her to serve the meal in order to invite the prince to dine with her, and then to invite the prince to stay overnight...
But she didn't know that Liu Ruyue just wanted to get her away.
In the room where she was alone, Liu Ruyue asked the system in her mind, "Brother Ya, do you have any medicine that's strong enough to prevent pregnancy?"
She just smelled it. Although the tonic soup contained medicine that could make women infertile, the dosage was small and needed to be taken for a month to be effective.
Having just been bullied by Liu Mengyao this morning, Liu Ruyue finally got the chance to retaliate, but she was not willing to let the other party go easily.
"Yes, 30 points per copy."
Yaya, who was observing the host doing the task in the sea of consciousness, heard Liu Ruyue's question and immediately answered it seriously.
"Give me one!"
After readily exchanging for a powerful infertility drug, Liu Ruyue deftly added it to the tonic soup. After hearing the voices of servants paying respects to the prince in the courtyard, she immediately began to gather her emotions.
The moment Zhao Tinghao walked in, Liu Ruyue stood up and threw herself into the man's arms.
For a moment, the man and Taohong were stunned: So impatient?
But the next moment, the little woman started crying tenderly: "My lord, please save me..."
The soft, boneless little hand climbed onto his chest. King Zhao Tinghao of Yan felt the little woman trembling in his arms, and a feeling of tenderness that only men could feel arose in his heart. He hugged the woman and asked, "What's wrong?"
After sobbing for a few times, Liu Ruyue looked at Taohong with red eyes, then at the tonic soup with some fear, and said tremblingly with fear: "Tonic soup, there is something in the tonic soup..."
When Liu Ruyue looked over just now, Taohong's heart was pounding, and she thought to herself: No way, no way, is this woman going to report me?
Taohong, who was nearly frightened to death, immediately said angrily after hearing Liu Ruyue's words, "Beautiful Yue, the princess was kind enough to give you a nourishing soup to nourish your body, and this is how you slander her?"
Even Zhao Tinghao looked at Liu Ruyue in his arms with some disapproval and said, "The princess is a good person. Don't let her kindness down and hurt her heart."
After hearing what the two said, Liu Ruyue understood in her heart: Liu Mengyao has already established a foothold in Prince Yan's Mansion, and it is not easy to shake her.
She pushed Zhao Tinghao away violently, looking at him with a hurt expression, and asked with a trembling voice, "Your Highness, don't you believe me? This soup clearly contains a potion that can prevent pregnancy. Why did you force me to drink it?"
The petite woman stared at the man in front of her with red eyes like a wounded rabbit. She showed no sign of backing down, which made Zhao Tinghao believe her words a little: "Are you saying that this soup contains medicine that can prevent women from getting pregnant?"
Liu Ruyue cried so hard that she couldn't utter a word and could only nod her head vigorously.
Seeing this, Zhao Tinghao's heart turned cold: This was a matter of offspring, which was a matter of his life. Someone actually gave his woman a drug that made her infertile. This was to kill him, Zhao Tinghao.
"Call the court doctor."
The man's masculine and handsome face suddenly turned gloomy, and he was shrouded in a layer of hostility.
As soon as the words came out, the servant who followed him ran to call the palace doctor.
The maids and servants outside the house who didn't know what was going on all thought that Liu Ruyue was indeed burned and needed treatment from the palace doctor because of what she had said before about the burns.
Even when the news reached the ears of Princess Liu Mengyao, she laughed at her, "She's such a vixen, so cheap! To seduce the prince into staying the night, she actually burned herself!"
"Doctor Guan, how is it?"
When Zhao Tinghao saw the court physician frowning at the tonic soup, he already knew what was going on and asked with a gloomy face.
"Your Majesty..."
The court doctor felt the pressure from the prince and said fearfully, "The soup does contain medicine that can make women infertile..."
"Good, very good!"
Hearing the words of the court doctor, Zhao Tinghao showed a sneer on his face: Everyone knows that he, Zhao Tinghao, has been married for seven years and has no children. His desire for offspring has almost reached a perverted level. Someone actually dared to put medicine in the tonic soup of the woman he favored. This is to destroy his possibility of becoming a father!
The person behind this is extremely despicable!
Everyone in the room was shocked by the fierce and violent aura emanating from Zhao Tinghao, only Liu Ruyue was still sobbing and wiping away tears.
After hearing what the court doctor said, she looked at Zhao Tinghao with red eyes and asked, "My Lord, the princess and you are deeply in love, and she would never do anything to kill your offspring. However, the princess is kind, and she might be exploited by treacherous people. I heard from Taohong that since the princess came into the house, the sisters in the mansion have been drinking this tonic soup. I am worried about the health of the sisters..."
After Liu Ruyue's reminder, Zhao Tinghao remembered that in addition to Princess Liu Mengyao, there were dozens of concubines in the mansion.
When Zhao Tinghao thought about the fact that he had slept with dozens of women but hadn't gotten any of them pregnant, and that someone might have tampered with them, his face darkened to the point of dripping water. He ordered the court doctor, "Go check them all!"
After saying this, he ignored Liu Ruyue and went to the courtyards of the other concubines with the servant and the doctor.
Those women who had been secretly paying attention to Liu Ruyue couldn't help but say happily in their hearts when they saw the prince leave with a cold face: Humph, you can seduce me, but the prince won't fall for it. Even if you get burned all over your body, the prince won't seem to feel sorry for you.
When she saw the prince walking into her yard, she was so happy that she hurriedly fixed her hair and makeup.
However, this happiness did not last long, as she was shocked by the court doctor's words that her body was damaged and she would never be able to get pregnant again.
"What? I can't have children? Isn't it the prince who can't have children?"
