Phi-Fic Chapter 473: Sealing the Mansion
Chapter 473: Sealing the Mansion
At night, Wang Xuening ordered people to lock the yard, and she sat alone in front of a large table of food, drinking one cup after another.
She drank and laughed, and then she started crying as she laughed.
All the misfortunes in her life started when she met Lu Jinghui. If it weren't for her, she wouldn't have been bullied by the maid, nor would she have taken the initiative to climb into Lu Jingxun's bed and become a concubine.
"Ha ha……"
When she heard that Lu Jinghui had died today, the hatred in her heart not only did not disappear, but it made her feel even more empty.
Lu Jinghui shouldn't have died like this, he should have died in his own hands.
It's a pity that they are too far apart.
Too far apart...
She squinted her eyes and counted the days: "Prince Duan is indeed worthy of being Prince Duan."
In just a few short days, the two of them fulfilled their promise.
Wang Xuening poured herself another glass: "Did he fulfill his promise to me, or was he just a discarded pawn?"
But no matter what, Lu Jinghui is dead, so the agreement between her and Prince Duan is fulfilled.
"Prince Duan..."
"Your Majesty, why are you here?"
"Where's Aunt Xue?"
"inside."
When Wang Xue Ning heard the sound coming from outside the room, she collected her attention, but soon picked up the wine glass and started drinking casually.
Lu Jingxun pushed the door open and saw Wang Xuening drinking, and couldn't help but frowned.
"Why are you drinking here alone?"
"Sir..."
Wang Xuening looked at Lu Jingxun with drunken eyes.
"Xue Ning misses home. She misses her two brothers. They are fighting outside and we don't know whether they are dead or alive."
Seeing Wang Xuening's red eyes, Lawrence Lu's tone couldn't help but soften.
"Now that the two countries are willing to sit down and talk, it means the war is over. Believe me, they will be back soon."
"Prince, are you telling the truth?"
"Of course, how could I lie to you?"
Lu Jingxun stood there, Wang Xuening sat there, and Wang Xuening hugged Lu Jingxun's waist.
"Sir, how are things going today?"
Talking about today's events, Lawrence Lu grabbed Wang Xuening's hand and sat down beside her.
"I went to the Prince's Mansion, but Shi'an didn't want to see me."
He did not say that his father, the Marquis, went to ask for an audience with the emperor, and the emperor did not see him.
Marquis Yongkang knelt outside the hall for an hour and finally fainted. He was carried by the eunuchs to the imperial physician. After the imperial physician gave him acupuncture, Marquis Yongkang finally recovered.
Seeing him like this, the chief eunuch could not help but say a few words: "My Lord, His Majesty is very angry now, you'd better not come at this time, just go home and wait, Lord Wei will definitely investigate this matter thoroughly."
What else could Marquis Yongkang do? He could only return in disgrace.
After returning from the palace, Marquis Yongkang ordered that no one was allowed to leave the palace and that everyone must stay indoors and await the emperor's decision.
There was some righteousness in his words when he said this.
Less than an incense stick's time had passed since he finished speaking when the imperial edict from the palace arrived.
No one in the Marquis' Mansion is allowed to leave, not even the maids and servants. Everything has to wait until Lord Wei returns from Huainan City.
Then the mansion was surrounded.
Prince's Mansion.
At her request, not many people knew about Lu Shian's pregnancy.
No matter how busy the prince was, he would come to Ping'an Garden to see Lu Shi'an. Sometimes, even when Lu Shi'an fell asleep, he would come and watch her leave silently.
One night, Lu Shian was reading a book when the prince came. She heard some noise outside, but she didn't want to talk to him, so she closed her eyes and pretended to fall asleep.
Li Hongting sat by the bed for a while, then stood up and left without saying a word.
When he felt that the person had left, Lu Shian slowly opened his eyes and saw the prince sitting not far away.
Li Hongting seemed very tired these days: "Don't you want to see me?"
Lu Shian couldn't explain it either. She had seen Li Hongting's performance during this period.
He came back to see her every day, and even after they got married, he would often send her things, including food and toys, which allowed Lu Shian to see a lot.
But the strange thing is that she just doesn't feel attracted to Li Hongting.
Being caught by Li Hongting, Lu Shian didn't know how to respond.
She slowly sat up from the bed.
Then he lifted the quilt and found an oil paper bag inside.
There was a roast chicken in the oil paper bag.
Seeing that it was roast chicken, Li Hongting was stunned for a quarter of an hour. The Prince's Mansion couldn't be so poor that they couldn't even afford a chicken, and they wanted her to eat it like this.
Lu Shian pursed his lips, feeling a little guilty: "Nanxing told me to eat a light diet and eat less greasy food, so that the baby won't grow too big and be difficult to give birth to."
Lu Shian believed what Nanxing said. In the 21st century, living conditions were good and many pregnant women could not control their mouths during pregnancy. When it was time to give birth, the baby was too big and the mother had to choose a caesarean section.
But in this day and age, there are no conditions for caesarean sections, and if the baby is too big, it is easy to end up with two deaths.
"Since Nanxing said it, I think it can't be false."
When Li Hongting found out the reason, he couldn't stop laughing. He stood up, walked to the bedside and took the roast chicken from Lu Shian.
"Just eat a few bites to satisfy your craving. After the baby is born, I will satisfy you with whatever you want to eat."
Lu Shian wiped her mouth. The roast chicken tasted really good. She was indeed greedy. She had just eaten a chicken leg and felt it was greasy and didn’t want to eat it anymore. She didn’t expect that it would help her at the critical moment.
"it is good."
"Although I ask you to control yourself, you don't have to not eat a single bite. If you want to eat something, just ask the kitchen to make it. Eating a few bites to satisfy your craving won't be too hard."
Lu Shian nodded.
Alas, if it weren't for her obsession, Li Hongting would be a pretty good man. It's a pity that he is the prince, and she can only be one of his many women.
Seeing that Lu Shian was so well-behaved, Li Hongting couldn't help but hug her in his arms.
Lu Shian listened to his heartbeat, and Shen Cuo's face suddenly jumped out of his mind...
Shen Cuo...
Lu Shian subconsciously looked out the window, and sure enough, there was a person standing on the roof outside the window...
She actually couldn't see clearly, she could only vaguely tell that it was a person, but she was sure that this person was Shen Cuo!
She pushed Li Hongting away and sat up straight: "How is the situation in the Marquis' Mansion going now?"
"Still checking."
Li Hongting gets a headache when it comes to this. Everyone knows that Lu Jinghui is the scapegoat, but they just can't find out who is behind it.
"Could it be Li Hongyu?"
He had been stationed at the border for many years and was close to Huainan City. In addition, due to his status as a prince, he could get things done more smoothly than anyone else.
Li Hongting sighed: "Guessing is useless, we have to find evidence."
It seems that Li Hongting also suspected that it was Li Hongyu, but he had no evidence and could not make random accusations.
Li Hongting turned around and looked at Lu Shian: "Let's not talk about this anymore. Would you like me to stay with you today?"
amount.
Lu Shian subconsciously touched his stomach.
Seeing his action, Li Hongting suddenly smiled.
"You, what are you thinking about? I just want to accompany you."
