Chapter 822, Planning
"Today I found some dregs of the sterilizing medicine at Luo Qiong's place!"
After Xiao Yeyang came back from the yamen, Daohua changed his clothes and told him about the contraceptive drug residue she found in the flowerpot.
"I asked Pingji's wife to investigate. During this period, Xiao Yechen's concubines and maids did not drink the medicine."
"The dregs of the medicine were poured into the flowerpot that Luo Qiong usually admired. This means that this medicine was either prepared by Luo Qiong for herself or for someone else."
Xiao Yeyang was stunned and looked at Daohua in shock: "Are you saying that Luo Qiong gave Xiao Yechen a sterilizing drug?"
Daohua asked back: "What else? Would she do it to herself?" Not many people would have the courage to do something like making themselves extinct.
Xiao Yeyang looked at Daohua with disbelief on his face: "Why? Even if she and Xiao Yechen are not in love, there is no need to do this, right?" Once such a thing was discovered, even if Luo Qiong was the legitimate daughter of the Duke's Mansion, she would have no chance of survival.
Daohua continued, "While we were having dinner today, I observed Luo Qiong's complexion and felt that she might be pregnant."
Hearing this, Xiao Yeyang immediately remembered that Luo Qiong might be having an affair outside. His brows raised and his face was full of anger.
His anger was not for Xiao Yechen, but for Luo Qiong bringing discredit to Prince Ping's Mansion.
Xiao Yeyang sneered repeatedly: "I have really overestimated Xiao Yechen over the years. How could he be so stupid?" He didn't know that he was given a sterilizing drug, and he didn't know that his wife was pregnant with someone else's child!
Daohua: "It has nothing to do with being stupid or not, it's mainly because I can't think of it."
Husband and wife are one body. How could Xiao Yechen have imagined that Luo Qiong would give him a sterilizing drug? He has no children, and Luo Qiong will not get any benefit.
Xiao Yeyang said with a cold face: "So Luo Qiong wants to raise the bastard outside as the heir of the prince's mansion?" As he said this, he couldn't help but think of the dirty things in the Weiguo Mansion, and he felt sick all of a sudden.
"Luo Qiong truly deserves to be from the Duke of Wei's mansion. Her mother had an affair with her father-in-law and gave birth to Luo Hongyuan, disregarding human ethics. Now she's having an affair outside, even trying to pass her bastard offspring off as a descendant of the royal family. They truly share the same bloodline!"
Daohua poured a cup of tea and handed it to Xiao Yeyang: "Don't get so excited. If things are really as we speculated, now that you know everything, it's still up to you to decide what to do in the end."
Xiao Yeyang drank his tea and slowly calmed down: "I'm just angry. What does Luo Qiong think of my Prince Ping's Mansion? She allowed her to mix up the bloodline at will!"
Daohua: "Just wait, I think we should receive good news from Chenyuan soon."
Chenyuan.
Luo Qiong suppressed her nausea and pretended to be coquettish as she pushed away Xiao Yechen's face, looking up anxiously at the sky outside.
It was not dark yet and Xue Qiao could not come in, so Luo Qiong could only let Xiao Yechen hold her in his arms.
"What's wrong? You're not like this in bed at night." Xiao Yechen put his lips on Luo Qiong's ear and looked at her with a smile on his face.
His wife is a lady from a wealthy family, and she always acts pretentious, which makes him feel very bored.
I don’t know if it’s because I felt ignored a few days ago, but now I know I have to obey my husband.
Luo Qiong gritted his teeth secretly, hoping that it would get dark quickly.
Compared to Luo Qiong who was eager for the sky to get dark sooner, Xue Qiao outside the house was secretly praying that it would not get dark too quickly.
In order to avoid being discovered, the girl would ask her to light incense in the house at night.
Under the influence of spices.
Watching the sky gradually darken, Xue Qiao resigned herself to walking into the room, lighting the incense, then going into the purification room and changing into Luo Qiong.
As soon as Luo Qiong left the house, he leaned against the wall and vomited violently.
Ever since she met her lover, she could no longer tolerate any closeness from Xiao Yechen.
Looking at the upper room with the lights off, Luo Qiong's stomach turned over again and he bent over to vomit.
"No, we can't do this anymore!"
She had already passed the period of morning sickness, and now because of Xiao Yechen's proximity, she vomited out everything she had eaten, which was not good for the baby in her belly.
Luo Qiong looked at Xueling and said, "Go and invite the doctor to come to the house tomorrow."
She originally planned to announce her pregnancy after a while, but she really couldn't stand Xiao Yechen anymore.
Luo Qiong is pregnant!
On the tenth day of April, Xiao Yeyang happened to be on a day off. When he got up in the morning, he was sitting in front of the dressing table drawing Daohua's eyebrows when he heard Wang Maner come in and tell him the news.
Daohua and Xiao Yeyang looked at each other, and both raised their eyebrows at the same time.
Daohua: "So soon, I thought I would have to wait a few days." Seeing Xiao Yeyang's brows tightly furrowed, she couldn't help but reach out to smooth them down for him, "What are you thinking about?"
Xiao Yeyang: "Who is Luo Qiong's wild man?"
Daohua nodded. "I'm curious too. You say Luo Qiong gave Xiao Yechen the sterilizing drug because of that man? That man was her true love, so she killed her own husband?"
Xiao Yeyang: "I don't care whether Luo Qiong and that wild man are truly in love. I just want to know what role the Duke of Weiguo's Mansion played in this? The only unusual thing about Luo Qiong in the past few months is that she frequently returns to the Duke of Weiguo's Mansion. She could only be having an affair with that wild man in the Duke of Weiguo's Mansion."
If it was outside, the secret guards would not have been able to fail to notice anything.
Daohua also pondered: "The Duke of Wei's Mansion is really troublesome. They haven't resolved their dealings with the Hu people yet, and Luo Qiong is pregnant with another man's child."
The speaker may not mean it, but the listener may take it seriously.
Xiao Yeyang suddenly looked at Daohua: "Luo Qiong's behavior has been different. Did it start around the Chinese New Year?"
Rice Flower nodded.
Xiao Yeyang narrowed his eyes: "Sun Changze said that they were the ones who followed the people from the Weiguo Mansion and the Hu people back to the capital during the New Year."
Daohua glared: "Luo Qiong likes Hu people?"
Xiao Yeyang laughed: "Who knows? But didn't Sun Changze also say that some of the Hu people were disguised as Daxia people?"
Hu people, Daxia people
Something flashed through Xiao Yeyang's mind, but he couldn't catch it.
"Don't tell anyone that Luo Qiong is cheating on her. I have to think of a way to find the man behind her."
Luo Qiong was pregnant, and Princess Ma was extremely happy. Even Prince Ping was very pleased and sent a lot of good things to Chenyuan, saying that all the things in the palace should be given to her first.
The wife of the Duke of Wei came to see Luo Qiong and happened to meet Huai En and others who came to deliver gifts. Seeing her daughter's room filled with various gifts, she smiled and said, "Thank God, you are finally pregnant. I don't have to worry about you all the time."
Looking at her mother's happy expression, a hint of unnaturalness flashed across Luo Qiong's eyes. She was still with that man without telling her family.
The wife of the Duke of Wei looked at the contents of the box, took Luo Qiong's hand and said, "As women, we still need children to be strong. Look, you've only just gotten pregnant, and your parents-in-law are already treating you with much more respect than before."
Luo Qiong wasn't particularly interested in these gifts. What made her happy was that she could finally use her pregnancy as an excuse to stay away from Xiao Yechen. "Is there anything Mother likes? Feel free to take it if you like."
The wife of Duke Weiguo glanced at Luo Qiong and said, "Can I still want you?" Then she looked at the maid in the room.
Seeing this, Luo Qiong waved them away. After they left, she asked, "Is there something wrong, mother?"
The wife of the Duke of Wei touched Luo Qiong's belly and said: "Now that you are a mother, you must make plans for the child in your belly."
Luo Qiong paused.
The wife of the Duke of Wei looked at her daughter with a look of disappointment: "I know you don't think much of Xiao Yechen. After Xiao Yeyang came back, he didn't help them deal with Pingxitang."
"But now you already have a child. For the sake of the child, you should think more about the future. Do you really want to give up the title of prince to someone else?"
Luo Qiong touched her belly and was silent for a while: "What mother said is right, some things should be carefully planned."
