Upon returning to the Qi residence, Yuqing immediately instructed her maid to prepare some medicine.
"Yuqing, are you sick? What medicine should I have the maid brew for you?"
"Madam, this is a secret aphrodisiac recipe that the Princess asked me to bring, hoping it will help the General and you consummate your marriage soon..." Yuqing glanced around to make sure no one was watching before continuing, "...to consummate your marriage!"
"Oh? Well, Yuqing, you decide what to do. I'm going to get ready; I'm tired after a long day."
As soon as Qi Jingxuan returned to the Qi residence, he went straight to his study.
"General, Miss Green Spirit requests your presence for a chat."
"General, Lady Liu invites you to come and enjoy the freshest seafood from Jiangnan."
"General, the lady invites you to have dinner with her."
Qi Jingxuan waited and waited, but still received no news from Ruan Yumu. "What time is it?"
"General, it's almost past 5 PM."
"It's already dark and you still haven't come." Xu Yunchuan couldn't help but laugh when he heard Qi Jingxuan's words. "If you want to go see Madam Ruan, then go ahead."
"I'm not going. I'm going to dine with Madam!"
Before long, Qi Jingxuan arrived at Jiang Mengyi's North Courtyard.
"Madam, the general is here. You'd better seize the opportunity." As Yuqing spoke, she casually pulled Jiang Mengyi's clothes down a little.
Jiang Meng awkwardly sat down at the dining table. "General, would you like me to heat this up for you?"
"No need, sorry to keep you waiting. There are just too many military affairs to handle."
Qi Jingxuan frowned as he looked at the table full of food. Turtle soup, pork kidneys, deer antler wine—all highly nutritious. Did he think there was something wrong with him because he hadn't done anything while staying here for three days?
Qi Jingxuan could only awkwardly pick at the side dishes in the food to eat, but in order to remove the fishy smell, these dishes were a bit spicy, and Qi Jingxuan kept swallowing his saliva.
"General, have some herbal tea!" Yuqing brought over a bowl of nourishing soup, and Qi Jingxuan drank it down without a second thought.
After finally finishing his meal, he suddenly felt unusually hot despite the cold winter weather. No, he couldn't stay here any longer; he wasn't ready yet. What was Jiang Meng doing?
"I'm going to the study," Qi Jingxuan said, and quickly ran off.
"Didn't you say that medicine takes effect very quickly? Why did he leave?"
"Is the general really that ill? I'll try a different prescription tomorrow, Madam, don't worry. It seems the general has no children because of this!" Yuqing began to suspect that there was something wrong with her prescription, and it was time to update it.
Qi Jingxuan walked out of the North Courtyard, but instead of returning to his study, he went back to the Yunxiang Tower next door.
"General, you've arrived. The concubine has already gone to sleep. I'll go and wake her up."
"No need, you may leave."
"Ruan Yumu, get up." Qi Jingxuan said, and began to undress.
Inside the red-roofed tent, only Ruan Yumu's screams could be heard.
"General, this body is yours too, shouldn't you take better care of it?"
"I won't feel any pain, Ruan Yumu, you better suffer."
Ruan Yumu tried to stop the man in front of her, but to no avail. Qi Jingxuan only cared about taking and riding her wantonly.
With a moment of blankness in her mind, she lost consciousness.
When I woke up again, it was already daylight; Zi Ling had woken me. Qi Jingxuan had already left.
"When did the general leave?"
"Replying to Madam, the General left at Hai Shi (9-11 PM) and went to Madam's room."
"When did he become so arrogant? How come I didn't know?"
Ruan Yumu said jokingly, seemingly mocking Qi Jingxuan for using his body to seduce women everywhere.
In fact, I went to more than just those two places last night; I also went to Liu Ruhua's place this morning at Chenshi (7-9 AM). It's just that Jiang Mengyi's medicine is too potent.
When Zi Ling heard her get up, she brought her the contraceptive soup as usual, but this time she didn't drink it.
"How can my Qi family, with its small population, do such a thing? Ziling, I won't make any more preparations from now on. Why did I ask you to make preparations in the first place?"
"Madam, have you forgotten? Your mother died in childbirth. Even if the old lady hadn't forced you to drink, you would have asked for it yourself. You're terrified of women giving birth." So that's how it is. How come I've never heard Ruan Yu Mu mention this before? "There's no need for that anymore."
"Yes, madam."
Ziling quickly brought water to help her wash up. She had to pay her respects to the madam at the morning banquet, and it wouldn't be good if she missed the appointed time.
Ruan Yumu felt extremely depressed thinking about how her beloved woman had been violated by Qi Jingxuan. After tidying herself up, she chose a new set of clothes and headed to the North Courtyard.
