We arrived at the Marquis's residence.
Fu Junheng carried Mu Chenshuang down from the carriage.
"Go back and get some rest," Fu Junheng said with concern, his gaze still gentle as he looked at her.
Mu Chenshuang glanced at him indifferently, did not respond, and turned to go back to her residence. Fu Junheng was thus completely ignored.
Fu Junheng stood there, watching the indifferent figure's back, his eyes deepening with understanding.
Mu Chenshuang returned to the courtyard.
Qi Ye had been waiting for her. When she returned, he asked, "Miss, where have you been?"
"Nowhere!"
Qi Ye wanted to say something, but seeing that her expression was very strange, he didn't say anything.
Mu Chenshuang pushed open the door with both hands and strode into the room.
With a bang.
The door was closed.
Qi Ye stood on the pillar, startled.
"What happened? Did they eat gunpowder?"
Linglong strode over, glanced worriedly at the room, then turned back to glare at Qiye, "Did you upset Miss again?"
Qi Ye looked at a loss, "How could I dare to offend her?"
Mu Chenshuang leaned against the door, head tilted back, eyes closed, chest heaving heavily, her breathing becoming exceptionally labored.
But she herself couldn't explain what she was angry about.
For quite a while.
After calming herself down, Mu Chenshuang took a step forward when her lower abdomen suddenly tightened. Startled, she quickly raised her hand to her lower abdomen, took a deep breath, and channeled her energy. A warm current flowed from her palm into her lower abdomen, and her lower abdomen gradually calmed down.
It was probably because her emotions were too volatile, which affected the pregnancy.
Although the pregnancy bump is not obvious now, you can clearly feel the slight protrusion of the lower abdomen when you touch it carefully.
The image of that night at Wangyue Tower kept flashing through her mind, the man who had wantonly violated her body, his face seemed to become clearer and clearer.
Suddenly.
Mu Chenshuang's eyes suddenly turned cold.
In any case, she would never give the child she was going to have to anyone.
"Linglong, go and brew a bowl of medicine to help prevent miscarriage."
Linglong was waiting anxiously outside the door. Upon hearing her mistress's instructions, she quickly replied, "Yes!"
Linglong walked quickly toward the kitchen.
“Seven Nights,” Mu Chenshuang called out.
Qi Ye pushed open the door and entered the room, where he saw Mu Chenshuang sitting behind the desk.
"Have the medicines been sent?"
Qi Ye stepped forward and said, "It's been delivered. The other party wrote a letter to Miss."
As he spoke.
Qi Ye took out the envelope from his pocket and handed it to Mu Chenshuang.
Mu Chenshuang took the envelope, opened it, and heard Qi Ye continue, "The other party insisted on giving fifty taels of gold, which I put in your study, Miss. They said that as long as you can cure their daughter, they are willing to pay any amount of money. Judging from the house, it is not an ordinary wealthy family."
Mu Chenshuang looked at the letter in her hand; it was nothing more than a thank you and a request for her to save Xiao Jing.
She only sent over a few doses of medicine, and Zhu Yue immediately gave her fifty taels of gold, which showed that she trusted her and was worried about Xiao Jing's condition.
Since Zhu Yue had already paid, she had no reason not to accept it. She put the letter away and said, "I understand."
"I have something to do tonight. Go to Lu Wei's study and see if we can find the account books from the past two years."
Since Lu Wei has connections with the Chengtianjian, her purpose in the Marquis's mansion is definitely not simple. Therefore, she must find out what Lu Wei is doing in private. Lu Wei's continued presence in the Marquis's mansion is a great scourge. What she needs to do now is to take back the power of the Marquis's mansion and expel Lu Wei from the mansion with a reasonable excuse.
Qi Ye replied, "No problem."
Linglong brewed a pregnancy-stabilizing medicine and delivered it to Mu Chenshuang's room. After drinking it, Mu Chenshuang continued writing her medical book.
Linglong couldn't help but urge her mistress to get some rest.
Mu Chenshuang comforted her, "I'll try to finish the first volume today and hand it in to Doctor Li. Then I can write slowly from here on out. Don't worry, I'm fine."
Linglong muttered, "Alright then!"
Linglong stayed with Mu Chenshuang the whole time, grinding ink for her.
By 9 PM, Mu Chenshuang had finished writing the first volume and then lay down on the bed to rest.
The next day.
During breakfast.
Qi Ye sat down next to Mu Chen Shuang, stretched, picked up his chopsticks, took a steamed bun, and said, "Although I didn't get the account book, I discovered a secret."
"What secret?"
"Your aunt's bedroom has a secret room. She almost discovered it last night. I wonder what's in that secret room?"
Mu Chenshuang's eyes darkened. It seemed she would have to find an opportunity to see for herself what secrets Lu Wei was hiding.
"Eat quickly, then come with me to the Prince of Wei's residence."
