Chapter 46: The Royal Family is Extinct, Is There a Pregnancy?
She lowered her head unwillingly, her nails digging into the ground, drawing blood: "Sister-in-law..."
Su Luo deliberately slowed down her pace and raised the corners of her lips, just to hear Li Jiaojiao's mournful apology clearly. Even if Li Jiaojiao knelt down and repented, she still wanted to use this as an excuse to return to the Su Mansion. After all, she had stayed in this Marquis' Mansion long enough.
"Sister-in-law, please don't leave. What happened today... is really my fault!"
In order to keep Su Luo, Li Jiaojiao said all the shameless words: "Please, just forgive me for my young age and ignorance..."
Having given birth to two children, you still call yourself young?
Su Luo snorted in her heart and walked away.
Li Jiaojiao's mind echoed with Li Ziyan's threatening words. She immediately stood up and chased after her, grabbing Su Luo's sleeve and crying heartily, crying as pitifully as she could: "Sister-in-law, please, stay..."
She cried so touchingly that her tears
The tears rolled like grapes. If you didn't know her, you would think she was singing. Su Luo was not a man. Who was she crying for by looking like this?
Oh, she's crying like crazy, Zhou Yan is really distressed. He quickly caught up with her, first supporting the shaky Li Jiaojiao, and then pleading in embarrassment: "Luo'er, don't go...even if it's for me..."
For you? Who the hell are you? Su Luo cursed in her heart, frowning and shaking her head.
When Su Luo left, Zhou Yan subconsciously tried to pull her, and his hand was freed. Li Jiaojiao lost her balance and fell to the ground.
"Ah!" Li Jiaojiao screamed.
"Sorry, Jiaojiao. Su Luo, don't go." Zhou Yan stood between the two women, watching Su Luo walking further and further away, and felt inexplicably irritated!
At this time, Qingxue and Qingya had already driven the carriage outside.
Yun Ran helped Su Luo into the carriage.
Zhou Yan looked at Li Jiaojiao, who had fallen to the ground, and then at the carriage that was about to depart...
"Go after him!" Li Ziyan stomped her feet.
Zhou Yan hesitated for a moment, but still followed and shouted, "Su Luo, listen to my explanation, you stay here first—"
However, all that was left for Zhou Yan was the dust blowing in his face as the carriage set off!
"Su Luo must have been extremely heartbroken this time, that's why she left so decisively." Zhou Yan frowned, perhaps because he felt guilty, but regret was evident in his eyes. "I was too much..."
Su Luo liked him so much that perhaps even when she left, she would be extremely reluctant and painful.
"What does the prince plan to do then?" Hui'an sighed.
"When Su Luo calms down in a few days, I will go to her house to pick her up." Zhou Yan clenched his fists silently.
In the carriage, Su Luo was very happy. She put pieces of water chestnut and red date cake, lotus and white sugar cake, and bird's nest cake into her mouth one by one, enjoying the food very much. She had a smile on her face all the time.
"I've finally left that unlucky place, the Marquis' Mansion." The sweetness of the pastries spread across her tongue, and Su Luo's eyes gradually deepened, revealing a plan.
Didn’t Aunt Dan want to cooperate with her?
Then she would wait for good news.
Li Jiaojiao, you brought this upon yourself. If you want to take revenge on the Marquis of Jing'an's Mansion, start with Li Jiaojiao.
…
The Imperial Palace. It's night.
In the Qianqing Palace, the entire bedroom was shrouded in smoke.
In the four corners of east, south, west and north, there is a copper hollow furnace, in which special medicinal incense burns day and night.
The palace servants passing by held their breath, walked quietly with their heads down and shoulders shrugged, not even daring to breathe.
Queen Mother Yuanxi's little finger, which was wearing a golden peony armor, was slightly raised, and her index finger and thumb were pinching a string of light blue conch beads. She frowned and stared at the person on the sickbed, with deep worry in her eyes.
Her son, the current emperor Mo Yaoran, has been sickly since childhood.
She had only one son, and she schemed and spent all her efforts to push Yao Ran to the throne. He had been on the throne for five years, but his health was getting worse every year. At the beginning of the year, he fell in the snow and hit his head, which caused him to have a high fever and he has been in a coma ever since.
Empress Dowager Yuanxi used up countless rare medicinal herbs, sought medical treatment and prayed to gods, and tried all kinds of itinerant doctors, famous doctors, miracle doctors, and imperial doctors. She tried fumigation, ointments, massage, and rescue methods, but the patient still could not wake up.
The country cannot be without a king for a day, and it cannot be without someone to supervise the government, so Mo Jin took advantage of the opportunity and became the regent.
During his time as regent, his power grew stronger, and Yuan Xi felt that he could no longer control it...
Yuanxi sighed tiredly.
Since Mo Yaoran's generation, the royal family has almost been extinct. The late emperor only gave birth to Mo Yaoran and Mo Jin. Mo Yaoran married countless concubines, and Yuan Xi often urged him to have more children. In the end, not to mention a prince, he didn't even have a princess!
If this continues...
If anything happens to Mo Yaoran, the throne will probably be transferred to Mo Jin, and the younger brother will inherit the throne.
Of course, what makes Yuan Xi happy the most is that Mo Jin has not yet married and does not even have children.
Since the late emperor's lineage, it has been difficult to have offspring. If something happens to Yao Ran, the brother will die and the younger brother will take over. Mo Jin has no children either, and the country will have to fall into the hands of another family.
The imperial physician who was giving the emperor acupuncture nervously put the silver needle into his bag and knelt on the ground.
"How is it?" Empress Dowager Yuanxi glanced at the imperial physician.
"I, this old minister, am incompetent... It may take some time for Your Majesty to wake up..." The imperial physician kowtowed in fear and nervousness.
"Waste." Queen Dowager Yuanxi took a deep breath, "Get out."
The imperial physician was sweating profusely from nervousness, and was about to leave the bedroom in a hurry.
"Wait." Queen Mother Yuanxi called out to him, then said, "All of you get off."
Only the imperial physician and the empress dowager were left in the room.
Queen Dowager Yuanxi stared at the imperial physician closely.
This can't go on any longer.
There has to be a solution.
The imperial physician felt a chill on his neck when the empress dowager stared at him, and he became inexplicably frightened.
The Queen Mother lowered her voice and asked in a secretive tone, "Can we be humane when the Emperor is unconscious?"
The imperial physician wiped the sweat from his forehead with his sleeve and responded in a very low voice: "Your Majesty is a man. Although he is the emperor, he can..."
The empress dowager understood, flicked her sleeves, and signaled the imperial physician to leave.
When the room was empty except for her and Mo Yaoran, the Queen Mother sighed and called out, "Lianzhu."
"The servant is here."
"Call the four concubines and the queen, and the five others to sleep with her as usual."
Lianzhu was startled at first, his mouth slightly opened, then he quickly closed it and said, "Yes."
…
After Su Luo left the Marquis' Mansion.
Qingxue Qingya stopped the carriage near Huashang Shop and said, "Miss, the prince wants you to come over."
This Qingxue Qingya is indeed useful and a capable assistant, but it's a pity that she is Mo Jin's man. Without even saying hello, she dragged Su Luo to the vicinity of Huashangpu and didn't even give her room to refuse.
Su Luo's eyes darkened a little, and she reached out to grab some pastries to eat, but found that four or five plates were empty.
Yun Ran exclaimed in surprise, "Normally you don't crave these snacks, and at most you'd eat four or five yuan worth of pastries, but today you ate four plates of pastries, which cost a total of twenty or thirty yuan..."
"I still feel very hungry, like I can't eat enough." Su Luo touched her stomach and burped. Her mouth was drooling. She turned down Qingxue and Qingya, "Go tell the prince that I'm waiting for her at Tianxiang Tower. I'm hungry."
"This..." Qingxue Qingya hesitated for a moment, and finally jumped off the carriage.
After the two of them left, Su Luo suddenly felt nauseous and held onto the car wall. She made a "wow" sound and retched repeatedly, and tears came out of her eyes.
"Miss...you..." Yun Ran said in shock, "You are either sick or seriously ill. We can't delay any longer. Let's go to the clinic secretly first."
Yun Ran was busy rummaging through the carriage and put a black veil and hood on Su Luo's head. "I will drive the carriage right away."
As the wheels moved forward, Su Luo felt more and more nauseous.
When she first arrived at the door of the clinic, Yun Ran also wore a veil. After confirming that there were no familiar people around in the dark night, she walked into the clinic.
"Doctor, please help me take a look. I have a good appetite recently, but I feel nauseous all the time. What's going on?" A snow-white wrist as white as jade stretched out from the black gauze dress and placed on the table.
