Chapter 151 Heroic Father.
After Her Majesty the Queen sent Lady Dayne and Victoria away, she sent them back, leaving Lu Xia and Lady Dana alone.
She asked the attendant to prepare lunch and asked the two to eat together.
At the table, Her Majesty the Queen mentioned Grace.
Lu Xia was a little surprised about this, as she thought Her Majesty the Queen would not take the initiative to tell her about Grace's disappearance.
Hearing this, Lu Xia showed her loneliness at the right time. Her Majesty the Queen looked apologetic: "I'm sorry that Grace is missing. I have asked Admiral Snoop to cooperate with the search. No matter what, I hope to find him. I'm ready to posthumously confer the title of Admiral on Grace."
Hearing this, Lu Xia forced a calm smile and thanked Her Majesty the Queen for the reward. If he couldn't get it when he was alive, what's the point of posthumously conferring it after he died? It's just for the living to see.
Her Majesty the Queen sighed softly, "I thought the rebels had lost their strength to resist, but I didn't expect them to come back and break the peace of the empire. Now the news can't be suppressed anymore. I don't know how the people will react after they know the news. Will they think that I am too incompetent as a queen and have lost face for the royal family?"
Lady Dana said at the right time, "Your Majesty, don't worry too much. This kind of thing is unpredictable. Besides, Admiral Snoop has already rushed to the front line. There will definitely be a good result. Don't worry too much and take care of yourself."
"I know, don't worry, how can I fall down if things are not settled?"
At this point, Her Majesty the Queen smiled faintly, as if she didn't want to talk about this topic anymore, and looked at Lu Xia: "How is the gene fusion preparation going?"
Suddenly hearing Her Majesty mention this topic, Lu Xia put down the tableware and said seriously: "I have failed Her Majesty's trust. There are some problems in the research, and the sale may have to be postponed."
Her Majesty the Queen nodded: "It is normal for research to have problems. Otherwise, the genetic research laboratory would not have been fruitless for so many years. It's good that you can do this step. Don't put too much pressure on yourself, take your time."
"Thank you for your comfort, Your Majesty the Queen, I know."
Lu Xia pretended to be very touched, but in his heart he thought, as expected, Her Majesty the Queen did not want the gene fusion preparation to be on the market, or fundamentally, Her Majesty the Queen did not want males to be too powerful. Maybe their weakness makes it easier for Her Majesty to control them.
He thought so in his heart, but did not show it on his face. After having dinner in Her Majesty's palace, Lu Xia left the palace with Lady Dana.
Coming out of the palace, Lady Dana said, "Are you surprised by the way Her Majesty punished her this time?"
Lu Xia looked over and said, "Her Majesty was particularly severe this time. Compared with the mild punishment last time, this time the punishment on Lady Daiyin and Victoria can be said to be very, very strict."
Lady Dana said sarcastically, "That's because the empire is in turmoil now. Our queen, who cares about her reputation, dare not cause the public's dissatisfaction with the royal family because of the exposure of Lady Daiyin and Victoria's affairs. After all, the affairs of the rebels have not been exposed yet."
Lu Xia was not surprised by Lady Dana's words. Based on her understanding of Her Majesty the Queen, this is indeed what she would do. She nodded and said, "Anyway, I am quite satisfied with this result. At least I won't have to face Lady Daiyin and Victoria for a long time in the future, and I don't have to be on guard against anyone."
Lady Dana smiled and said, "The Dafelno family, you didn't mention it this time."
Lu Xia smiled and said, "They have promised to give me 300 million in compensation. I think it's okay."
Lady Dana chuckled and said, "They are very generous."
"Yes, it just so happens that my research institute is a money-eater. With this money, I can really do a lot of things."
At this point, Mrs. Dana looked at Lu Xia: "Is there really a problem with the gene fusion preparation?"
Lu Xia was silent for a moment and sighed: "You should have seen that Her Majesty the Queen does not want the gene fusion preparation to be on the market, so there must be problems."
Mrs. Dana heard this and looked relieved: "I thought you would not see it."
Lu Xia smiled: "How could it be, Her Majesty the Queen's mind is actually quite easy to understand."
Mrs. Dana also smiled, without saying much, talking to a smart person, just to the point.
The two separated in front of the palace gate, and Lu Xia went to the No. 2 Courtyard. The research on the ice spirit gene was particularly smooth because it was based on the fire spirit gene. It has entered the trial stage. It will not be long before it can be used on Smelian.
When he arrived at the No. 2 Courtyard, Lu Xia felt a little dizzy as soon as he got off the car. He had been a little tired in the past two days. He thought that after finishing this matter, he would go back and have a good rest.
When the people in the institute saw her coming in, they all greeted her. The assistant even poured her a cup of coffee. When Lu Xia just took it and was about to take a sip, she suddenly felt nauseous, which scared the assistant beside her: "Your Excellency the Duke, are you okay?"
Lu Xia pressed her chest and nodded, "I'm fine, you go down first."
After the assistant left, Lu Xia sat down on the sofa, looking at the coffee in front of her, and she had a bad premonition in her heart.
Could she be pregnant?
The first time, because there was a terminal prompt, she knew that she was pregnant, but this time she had already turned off the terminal prompt, so the terminal did not respond, but these symptoms really look like...
Thinking of this, Lu Xia contacted Dr. Eugene.
She confirmed a time with Dr. Eugene and met at home in the evening.
Dr. Eugene was excited when he knew it. If Lu Xia's first pregnancy was a small probability coincidence, then the second natural conception was inevitable, which means that Duke Lu Xia really has a natural physique.
When Smelian got home in the evening, he found Dr. Eugene there. His heart was lifted unconsciously, and he asked subconsciously: "What's wrong with Xia Xia? What's wrong with her?"
Dr. Eugene looked at him with a smile in his eyes: "I just did a test for Duke Lu Xia and confirmed that Duke Lu Xia has conceived naturally. This family is about to welcome another little life, and this time the male father is you, Smelian."
Thinking that the males in these families are so lucky, Dr. Eugene couldn't help but feel envious.
He looked at the nervous Smelian, walked over, and patted him on the shoulder: "Congratulations, Smelian."
Faced with such congratulations, Smelian looked puzzled and asked in confusion: "What are you congratulating me for?"
"Congratulations on becoming a male father."
This sentence made Smelian's golden pupils shrink suddenly, and he didn't even have time to react. The surprise on his face was obvious, and even a little shocked. After a while, he seemed to have found his voice again: "What do you mean, you mean... Xia Xia..."
He hesitated, as if he was surprised and unfamiliar with the answer, and it was even more difficult to say it out.
Doctor Eugene nodded, looked at him with a smile, and helped him complete the rest of the sentence: "Yes, that's right, Duke Lu Xia has successfully conceived naturally again, so congratulations, you are going to become a father."
