Chapter 828, Princess Ma dies
Princess Ma is a member of the imperial harem, so her sense of smell regarding certain matters is quite sharp.
Although Luo Qiong tried her best to hide it these days, she could still see the panic in her daughter-in-law's eyes every time she went to Chenyuan.
As for what the maid said before, she was just skeptical and seeking confirmation. But after Luo Qiong returned to the Duke of Weiguo's Mansion and immediately went to the temple to burn incense and pray for blessings, her doubts grew.
Something must be wrong with Luo Qiong!
The more Princess Ma thought about it, the angrier she became. At the same time, she was also a little scared and worried, fearing that Luo Qiong had really done something to let her son down.
No, it won't.
Princess Ma shook her head to deny her guess. Luo Qiong was, after all, the legitimate daughter of the Duke's Mansion. It was impossible for her to do something unfaithful to her husband. This would not only bring shame to her son, but also bring discredit to the Duke's Mansion.
Although Princess Ma denied that Luo Qiong would do anything wrong to Xiao Yechen, she was increasingly anxious to find someone to find out the month of her pregnancy.
"Go tell Grandma that I'll go to the temple with her to burn incense later."
After instructing the maid, Princess Ma immediately called the housekeeper and said, "I remember there's a midwife in my sister-in-law's room who knows how to deliver babies and is a doctor. Go back to the Ma residence and bring her to the temple."
Originally, she wanted to ask the imperial physician to come to the house, but when she thought that Luo Qiong might have done something wrong to her son, she gave up the idea.
She had to consider her son's reputation. If Luo Qiong really did something unfaithful to her husband, the matter could only be resolved privately and not leaked at all.
Otherwise, my son will not be able to hold his head up in front of outsiders in the future.
When Luo Qiong learned that Princess Ma was going to the temple with her, she became very upset: "It's all Yan Yiyi's fault. If she hadn't said that my belly was big, my mother and husband wouldn't have paid so much attention to my belly."
Xueling and Xueqiao on the side lowered their heads and did not dare to respond.
Xue Qiao glanced at her daughter's bulging belly. If it were winter, there would be some way to cover it up a little, but now the weather is getting hotter and hotter, and people are already wearing thin clothes. As long as people pay a little attention, they can tell that the girl is not in the right month.
Originally, Pingxitang and Chenyuan had been at peace with each other, but after the girl became pregnant, she chose to provoke the Second Mistress. The Second Mistress was a powerful person, so it would be strange if she didn't confront the girl.
No matter how reluctant he was, in the end, Luo Qiong had to force a smile and get on the same carriage with Princess Ma.
As soon as they left, Xiao Yeyang personally led people to follow them.
The wife of Duke Weiguo, who had been sending people to keep an eye on Prince Ping's mansion, also learned at the first time that Princess Ma had taken her daughter to the temple to burn incense. She was worried that Princess Ma had secretly asked a doctor to check her daughter's pulse, so she immediately ordered someone to prepare a carriage and hurriedly followed.
After Luo Qiong followed Princess Ma to the temple, she stayed by her side quietly and did not look for an opportunity to leave alone.
Brother Chi only asked her to come to the temple to burn incense, but did not tell her how to meet him. So, she could only wait patiently for him to come to her.
Princess Ma secretly observed Luo Qiong's reaction. Seeing that she was calm and serious in burning incense, she couldn't help but feel relieved.
I kept convincing myself in my mind that although there are not many pregnant women who show their pregnancy in the first three months, there are some. Maybe my daughter-in-law has a special physique?
At this moment, Princess Ma actually felt like backing off and didn't want the Ma family's midwife to touch Luo Qiong's belly.
However, at this moment, the wife of Duke Weiguo appeared.
Seeing the wife of Duke Weiguo approaching with a smile on her face, Princess Ma frowned again, and the doubts that had just been put away surfaced again, even more intense than before.
In her opinion, coming to the temple to burn incense today was something that the mother and daughter had discussed in advance.
Luo Qiong looked at the wife of Duke Weiguo in surprise, not understanding why his mother was here.
However, because of the arrival of the wife of Duke Weiguo, Luo Qiong met Xiao Yechi not long after.
Xiao Yeyang was hiding among the branches of an ancient tree in the temple. When he saw Xiao Yechi hugging Luo Qiong in the side room with his own eyes, there was still some surprise on his face.
Unexpectedly, Xiao Yeti is not dead!
Unexpectedly, Xiao Yeti dared to return to Beijing!
What is even more surprising is that Xiao Ye Chi dared to have an affair with Luo Qiong under such circumstances and even made Luo Qiong pregnant with his child!
In the temple's side room, Luo Qiong responded to Xiao Yechi's kiss enthusiastically, trying to make up for all the longing she had felt during this period.
Finally, Xiao Yechi let go of Luo Qiong, lowered his body, and put his head on Luo Qiong's belly: "Our son didn't bother you, did he?"
Luo Qiong had a sweet smile on her face: "The child is very well behaved. Apart from some morning sickness in the beginning, he didn't bother me at all."
As he spoke, the smile on his face faded.
"My mother-in-law seems to be suspicious and wants to find a royal doctor to check my pulse again. Brother Chi, what do you think we should do?"
Xiao Yechi's eyes flashed with murderous intent: "Let her look for it. I will make arrangements with the Imperial Hospital. However, if she keeps chasing me, I might as well kill her directly."
Hearing this, Luo Qiong's heart tightened. She didn't like her mother-in-law, but she didn't want to kill her. "Let's wait and see. My belly is really hard to hide because of the thin clothes. If she still has doubts after the second doctor examines it, then I'll do as you say."
A smile appeared on Xiao Ye Chi's face, and he reached out to stroke Luo Qiong's face: "That's right. Being my woman, Xiao Ye Chi, it's not good to be too kind."
Luo Qiong said solemnly, "Don't worry, I will protect our child. I won't let anyone who dares to threaten him go."
Xiao Yechi's eyes softened. He reached out and held Luo Qiong in his arms, stroking her belly: "Qiong'er, this child is the continuation of our lives. He must be born safely and grow up smoothly."
Even though the Tatar princess had already given him two sons, deep down he still wanted to have another child with pure blood, only Daxia blood.
Luo Qiong nodded affirmatively: "Of course I will. I will raise him up and let him inherit the title of the royal palace."
Xiao Yechi lowered his head and took a deep breath of the sweet fragrance in Luo Qiong's hair: "My woman should be like you."
Just as Xiao Yeti was about to touch Luo Qiong's cheek and get intimate with her again, he suddenly saw the old tree outside the window shaking. He stood up suddenly and jumped out of the window without saying a word.
Luo Qiong was startled. Watching Xiao Ye Chi disappear from her sight with a few leaps, the corners of her mouth couldn't help but rise. She thought that the man she liked should be like this.
He is bold and courageous, resolute and decisive in doing things, and everything is under control. He is not like Xiao Yechen, a coward who can only talk and has to rely on flattery to seek status.
While I was thinking about this, the door of the compartment suddenly creaked open.
Luo Qiong turned around and saw Princess Ma walking in with a maid. She felt that the maid was looking at her with a strange look, so she immediately asked with a smile, "Mother, where is my mother?"
Princess Ma walked to the chair and sat down before she spoke: "Your mother has gone to pray for peace and happiness." Then she looked at the maid beside her and said, "Wife, please feel my daughter-in-law's belly and see if my grandson is okay."
Hearing this, Luo Qiong's expression suddenly changed. She clutched her stomach and stepped back repeatedly: "Mother, what are you going to do?"
Princess Ma looked at Luo Qiong's face, her eyes becoming increasingly gloomy. "What are you worried about? Old Lady Wang is the best at taking care of pregnant women. Let her take a look at you."
Luo Qiong retreated again and again to prevent Wang Po from getting close to him.
Mrs. Wang looked at Princess Ma and said, "Princess, there's no need to touch her. The baby in Grandma's belly is at least four months old."
Hearing this, Princess Ma slammed her hand on the table. Just as she was about to say something, she felt a warm liquid flowing down her neck. She reached out to touch it, and saw her hands covered in blood.
Princess Ma turned around in a daze and saw Xiao Yechi standing in the room, looking at her expressionlessly. Then he fell backwards with a "bang". When he took his last breath, there was still an expression of disbelief on his face.
She never thought that she would die so quietly at the hands of her adulterer Luo Qiong!
