Chapter 7: Rebellious son, you want to die!
"Madam, what are you talking about? The Marquis just came over..."
Lu Yao speaks quickly.
He blurted out to defend the Marquis.
Then Shen Yan coughed twice, interrupting him: "Who told you to talk too much? Go and guard outside!"
Lu Yao immediately hung his head: "Yes, Lord."
No, did he say something wrong?
Seeing that Jiang Wanning was still looking at him warily, Shen Yan couldn't help but explain.
"No one ate much at dinner, and I'm a little hungry, so I asked the chef to make a few side dishes. Would you like to... sit down and eat with us?"
Jiang Wanning was still a little suspicious.
"So, you're just here to bring some midnight snacks? You're not staying overnight?"
Chen Yan's tone was slightly hesitant: "I will leave after eating... If you don't want to eat with me, then I will leave now..."
As he spoke, Shen Yan stood up.
Jiang Wanning then pulled him back.
"Hey, come sit down! I'm not chasing you away."
She was just wondering why the Marquis was suddenly so attentive to her, even though he had obviously disliked her before.
Could it be that he needs help from her?
Is he going to take a concubine? !
Just as I was wondering, Chen Yan had already ordered people to take out the food from the lunch boxes and place them on the table one by one.
Seeing the last plate of stinky tofu with amaranth stems, Nanny Lin's face changed and she hurriedly said.
"Take this dish away quickly! Madam can't stand the smell!"
"No, no," Jiang Wanning stopped the girl who was clearing the plates, "Doesn't this smell delicious? Put it down, I want to try it."
"Madam, you..."
Facing Nanny Lin's puzzled gaze, Jiang Wanning made up an excuse: "I wonder if it's because I'm getting older, but my tastes have changed recently."
Nanny Lin: “.”
Jiang Wanning looked around at the dishes on the table. They were all her favorites, and they were much more tempting than the dinner she had had.
She picked up the chopsticks and was about to pick up something, but suddenly stopped.
wrong.
How did Shen Yan know her taste?
The original owner had a light taste, and the dishes on the table for dinner were mostly light.
But Jiang Wanning has always had a strong taste, so even if Shen Yutang, the rebellious son, had not provoked her, she would not have been able to eat many bites of that meal.
Seeing that she didn't pick up any food, Shen Yan couldn't help but ask.
"Ma'am, why don't you eat?"
Jiang Wanning looked at him and couldn't help but ask, "Did you specifically order the kitchen to make these dishes?"
Chen Yan said, "After my long journey, my taste has changed a lot. Blame me for being careless... Could it be that Madam can't eat these?"
Jiang Wanning finally started eating with confidence: "Eat it! Eat it! Lord, you should eat more too!"
It seems she was overthinking it.
After all this time, it was just his own greed.
Halfway through the meal, Jiang Wanning seemed to remember something and asked thoughtfully.
"Oh, right, there's something I can't quite understand... I want to ask you, why would a man refuse to acknowledge his wife's unborn child?"
Hearing this.
The stir-fried pork kidney in Shen Yan's hand fell onto the table with a "plop".
His face darkened slightly.
"Madam, you..."
"Oh, it's not me! What were you thinking about!"
Shen Yan finally seemed to breathe a sigh of relief and began to seriously ponder this tricky question: "Perhaps...his wife was having an affair with someone, and he caught her in bed?"
Jiang Wanning shook his head.
"That doesn't mean the child is definitely not his."
"That's right," Shen Yan nodded slightly, and pondered for a while, "But what if the time when my wife becomes pregnant doesn't match the day we have sex?"
Hearing this.
Jiang Wanning's eyes flickered and he slammed the table.
"I see!"
…
The next day.
As soon as the door outside the bedroom of Qiyun Pavilion was opened, Shen Yutang couldn't wait to rush to the west wing.
Despite his mother's repeated warnings, he was not allowed to visit Yan'er.
But he was still worried.
then.
The person who was originally engaged to him was Yan'er.
So he decided since he was a child that the person he wanted to marry was Yan'er.
But on the eve of the wedding.
Murong Qing, under the pretext of Yan'er, asked him to meet privately, put drugs in his tea, and had physical contact with him.
He had no choice but to let Yan'er down and was forced to marry Murong Qing.
After all, he felt guilty towards Yan'er.
…
West wing.
Seeing Shen Yutang coming in, Chuntao immediately went to greet him with red eyes.
"My Lord, you are finally here! My lady has been feeling hot all night and has just woken up..."
Shen Yutang couldn't help but quicken his pace and walk inside, asking as he walked.
"Did you call the doctor?"
"I went to ask for him early in the morning. Doctor Zhang is taking the young lady's pulse inside!"
When he entered the room, Shen Yutang couldn't help but express his concern when he saw Doctor Zhang had just finished writing the prescription and handed it to Liu.
"How is Yan'er?"
Doctor Zhang said, "Don't worry, my lord. Miss Murong is fine now. She just needs to take the medicine according to the prescription every day."
Shen Yutang was relieved: "That's good."
"Oh, I remembered one more thing."
Before leaving.
Doctor Zhang suddenly stopped, as if he had thought of something.
Then he turned around and gave him a serious instruction.
"After checking the Crown Princess's pulse yesterday, I forgot to tell her... If you want to save the baby in her womb, you must not use the saffron I opened last month!"
Hearing this, Shen Yutang couldn't help but frown: "What saffron?"
Liu followed in surprise.
"Isn't that used for abortions?"
Murong Yan'er coughed twice while lying on the bed, as if she was a little worried: "Ahem... I'm fine, what does my sister want saffron for?"
Liu's expression changed slightly.
"Could it be that she wants an abortion? Could it be that... Qingqing was already pregnant last month?"
Hearing this, Shen Yutang's handsome face instantly darkened.
For more than half a year, he has been following his father in battles outside until the war in the western border was pacified. He only returned to the capital not long ago.
Counting by the days, he had been back in the mansion for less than two months.
If Murong Qing had been pregnant last month, the child could not have been his.
Shen Yutang looked unhappy.
Murong Yan'er seemed afraid that he would misunderstand, so she quickly defended Murong Qing.
"Mother, what nonsense are you talking about? How could I possibly do something that would let Brother Yutang down..."
Liu said.
"I don't want to think that way, but Yutang is away from home all year round, and I'm worried that Qingqing might become confused."
Shen Yutang's eyes grew colder.
He looked straight at Doctor Zhang.
He asked word by word.
"You mean, the Crown Princess was diagnosed with pregnancy last month?"
Doctor Zhang looked embarrassed and panicked, as if he just realized that he had let the cat out of the bag.
"This...didn't the Crown Prince's Consort tell you?"
Liu looked furious.
"This little bitch, how could she do such shameful things!"
Murong Yan'er quickly grabbed Shen Yutang's arm and tried to persuade him.
"Brother Yutang, please don't be angry. There might be some misunderstanding. I believe my sister wouldn't cheat on someone for no reason..."
Shen Yutang brushed her hand away.
He strode out with a cold face.
"What kind of misunderstanding could there be? She has always been such a shameless woman!"
…
Qiyun Pavilion.
Murong Qing sat in front of the window.
She was embroidering with her hand embroidery sling, planning to make a red bellyband for the baby in her belly.
Shen Yutang suddenly rushed in with a furious look on his face and shouted coldly at the maid in the room.
"Get out of here!"
It was rare to see the prince get so angry. The maids were frightened and ran out one after another.
Murong Qing didn't know why he was angry and was about to ask him questions.
Shen Yutang grabbed her neck.
He asked with red eyes.
"Tell me! Who is that wild man?!"
Murong Qing was caught off guard and was firmly gripped by his throat. She couldn't breathe for a moment and her cheeks turned red instantly.
"What wild man? I... I don't know what you are talking about..."
"You're still trying to hide this from me? If Doctor Zhang hadn't let it slip, I probably wouldn't have known you were such a slutty woman! Tell me honestly, who is the father of this child?!"
Shen Yutang's face was extremely gloomy.
Whenever he thought about Murong Qing betraying him and having a bastard with another man, he would be so angry that he wanted to go crazy!
How dare she!
"Ahem... I didn't, I didn't look for a random man..."
Murong Qing uttered a few words with difficulty.
My eyes turned red instantly.
"The child is yours, why don't you believe me?"
"Mine? Haha..."
Shen Yutang couldn't help but sneer.
"Doctor Zhang said you were pregnant last month, but I've only been home for a little over a month. How could the bastard in your belly be mine?!"
"Bang—"
Just when Murong Qing didn't know how to defend himself.
The door was suddenly slammed open!
Jiang Wanning rushed in and pulled Shen Yutang away from the head of the bed.
He raised his hand and gave him a big slap in the face!
"You rebellious son, you want to die!"
