'Embroidery thanks the prince for his kindness … ' Embroidery does not need a dowry, all it wants is to take away the young lady's clothes … "I beg the king for his consent …" Su Jin Xiu sobbed as she respectfully placed the silver bills in front of Xiao Jin Feng before walking to the bed, hugging Chu Shi Rou's clothes tightly in her embrace.
"Embroidery..." Where are you going? " Xiao Jin Feng sensed Su Jin Xiu's peculiar expression and asked worriedly.
"Your Royal Highness, before the Embroidery leaves, please accept three kowtows of Embroidery. All these years, Your Royal Highness has protected the Embroidery well. If there is a next life, the Embroidery will still be willing to serve by your side and never speak of it again." Even though Xiao Jin Feng stopped her, Su Jin Xiu still insisted on kneeling down to him. After three kowtows, she slowly walked to the door. This was not the first time she had used this move, but this was the only time, so she had no chance of winning.
Just as Su Jin Xiu was about to open the door, the door was pushed open from the outside.
"Wangfei..." "Wuwuwu!" "Wuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwu "Embroidery kowtows to the secondary concubine …" Su Jin Xiu was secretly happy, but her words were filled with sorrow.
"Rise, so Your Highness is also here." Duan Moyan walked into the room and swept her gaze across the five thousand taels of silver on the table. She understood in her heart.
"Mu Yan... I... "I just …" Afraid that Duan Mu Yan would misunderstand, Xiao Jin Feng wanted to explain, but Duan Mu Yan beat him to it.
"Mu Yan understands that you are worried about your beautiful body, and so is Mu Yan. Doctor Zhao, come in …" After Duan Mu Yanyu finished her sentence, Zhao Yuxu walked in from outside.
"This lowly one pays his respects to Your Highness …" Zhao Yuxu respectfully saluted and didn't notice Su Jinzhu's intentionally cast a glance at him.
"Rise …" Xiao Jin Feng spoke indifferently, his gaze shifting to Duan Mu Yan.
"Doctor Zhao, may I trouble you to act as your embroidery meridian?" Doctor Zhao, may I trouble you to act as your embroidery meridian? Duan Mu Yan lightly moved to Su Jin's side and helped him return to his bed.
From the beginning to the end, Xiao Jingfeng only stood there in a daze, not knowing what to say. He did not dare to explain the reason why he came to Su Jin's room, but he did not want Duan Mu Yan to misunderstand him. In this kind of awkward situation, he could only remain silent.
Time passed second by second. Zhao Yuzhe slowly retreated from the bed, his gaze subconsciously shifting to Duan Mu Yan.
"Doctor Zhao, how is little sister?" If you are feeling unwell, please take care of yourself. " Her beautiful eyes flickered with an expression of heartache, she looked so real.
"This …" Zhao Xun Yu lowered his head in hesitation, not daring to speak.
"The wangfei is asking you!" At the side, Xiao Lingfeng saw that Zhao Xun was hesitating to speak, so he urged him coldly.
"That's right, there are no outsiders in this room. If there's anything you want to say, Doctor Zhao, just say it." Duan Mu Yan was also worried.
"Reporting to Your Highness, Princess … The pretty girl, she … She was pregnant … " Hearing his voice, Xiao Jin Feng staggered back a few steps, his hand striking the table. It was just a few simple words, but it caused a series of booms to ring in Xiao Jin Feng's ears.
"What?" This... "How is this possible …" Pretending to be shocked, Su Jinxiu stood up and knelt before Duan Muyan.
"This servant knows her wrongs …" Ask for forgiveness... Doctor Zhao … Please open a bowl of saffron for the brocade... "Please!" Su Jin Xiu half kneeled and rubbed in front of Zhao Yu Xun, her tears fell like rain. At this moment, Su Jin Xiu couldn't help but admire Duan Mu Yan. If she hadn't used such a technique, she might really have stepped out of Xiao Wang Manor. On this point, Su Jin Xiu was still grateful, but it was only secondary.
"Embroidery, what are you doing? Quickly get up! Even if you don't think for yourself, you must think for the fetus in your womb. Doing this will easily harm your body!" After a moment of calmness, Duan Mu Yan forcefully pulled Su Jin Xiu back onto the bed, holding back the tears in her eyes.
"Doctor Zhao, sorry for troubling you. Could I trouble you to prescribe a formula to calm the fetus? There's nothing else here. You can leave first." At the side, Xiao Jin Feng looked guiltily at Duan Mu Yan. At this moment, he was even more at a loss for words.
"Embroidery, take care of your fetus. As for other matters, Prince and I will arrange them properly for you. Remember, you are not alone now, and for the sake of your flesh and blood, you cannot let your imagination run wild. The Xiao manor will forever be your home." After Duan Mu Yan consoled Su Jin Xiu, she turned her gaze to Xiao Jin Feng.
"Your Highness, let's leave this place first and let the brocade rest up. Your consort also has something to discuss with Your Highness." Before Xiao Jin Feng could reply, she had already walked out of the room. Xiao Jin Feng was speechless, and could only dejectedly follow her out.
The very next moment after Duan Mu Yan and Xiao Jin Feng left, Su Jin Xiu stood up and left the room. She really wanted to know why Duan Mu Yan had come looking for Zhao Yu Xun!
Fortunately, before Zhao Yuzhe walked far away, Su Jinxiu had only taken a few steps when she saw her figure.
"Doctor Zhao!" Su Jin Xiu walked up quickly and stood in front of Zhao Yu Xun.
"Embroidery..." Why did you run out? " Zhao Yu Xun asked suspiciously.
"Doctor Zhao, why would Duan Mu Yan come and find you?" Didn't she blame you for testifying against her in court? " Su Jin Xiu questioned.
"It's not that the secondary concubine is looking for me, it's that she asked Housekeeper Zhou to look for a doctor. If she knew that it was for you, then Housekeeper Zhou would naturally look for me." Zhao Yuxu calmly said.
"What?" Didn't Duan Mu Yan intentionally make you claim that I am pregnant? " Su Jin Xiu looked at Zhao Yu Xun in confusion.
"How is this possible!?" Embroidery, you are really pregnant! It should be more than half a month. Furthermore, if it's not absolutely necessary, I do not wish to meet Duan Mu Yan. " Zhao Yuxu firmly said.
"I... Did I really have a child?! Doctor Zhao, you can't joke about this. You have to speak the truth! " Su Jin Xiu held Zhao Yu Xun's shoulders excitedly as she exclaimed.
"Embroidery, the relationship between you and me is not shallow, how could I possibly lie to you? You are really pregnant, it's just that your mood has been fluctuating for a while, which is not good for the baby, but don't worry, I've already given the formula for calming the child to Feng Xue, as long as you drink the medicine regularly every day, the baby will definitely be fine." Zhao Yuxu's every word was firm.
"Really …" I'm really pregnant with the prince's child... The heavens are on my side! The heavens are on my side … Thank you, Doctor Zhao! I will protect my child carefully! "Many thanks …" Su Jin Xiu was overjoyed as she turned around and returned to the Xiao manor. The moment Su Jin Mei turned around, Zhao Yu Xun couldn't help but look back as if he had thought of something.
Inside the room, Duan Mu Yan remained silent for a long time before she spoke.
"Prince, why did you come to the embroidery room just now?" Duan Muyan turned to face Xiao Lingfeng as she asked in an indifferent tone.
"I …" Xiao Jingfeng lowered his eyes in silence.
Five thousand taels of silver. Your highness, do you know that if Su Jinxiu took the five thousand taels of silver and left, she would fall into a situation of injustice, that Su Jinxiu harbored the son of the prince, but was chased out of the Xiao manor by Mu Yan, and that she was viewed as being heartless? She is the one who cares the most about the main wife, but Mu Yan could not bear her. Each of Duan Moyan's words were like pearls as her gaze turned ice-cold.
"It's not you. It's This King. This King told her to leave …"
"In the eyes of the people, the prince has more affection for his main wife than he does for Jin Jian. If we say that the prince would treat Su Jin Xiu like this, who would believe it?" Duan Mu Yan bitterly said.
"Mu Yan... Sorry... "I really didn't think that much. I only thought that if it wasn't for this incident, maybe we would have a good time …" Xiao Jin Feng clenched his fists in pain.
"But there are no 'ifs' in this world. My prince, Mu Yan has already decided that if you were to marry Su Jin Xiu as your main wife, it would definitely make my royal father furious, and this will not be a good thing for you and me. Thus, Mu Yan has decided to marry Su Jin Xiu as her prince's concubine. Although Duan Muyan's voice was as gentle as before, there wasn't the slightest hint of warmth in her voice.
"This... No... How can This King... " Xiao Jingfeng's sword-like eyebrows creased as he continuously shook his head.
"Why can't I? Your Highness, do you think that there is a better solution for the current situation? Su Jin Xiu already has your flesh and blood in her womb. Do you want her to have no father after she is born? You really have the heart to let your children live outside! " Duan Mu Yan's voice was hoarse, every word was like a sharp blade stabbing into Xiao Jin Feng's heart. He had to admit that he was at the end of his wits.
"Mu Yan... Believe me, this king doesn't have the slightest bit of love for Su Jinxiu... "I just …" Without waiting for Xiao Lingfeng's explanation, Duan Mu Yan had already spoken.
Your Highness, Mu Yan is also a woman. I'm sorry that Mu Yan was unable to force Mu Yan to smile and help you manage the matter of her concubine. I'll leave this matter to Housekeeper Zhou to deal with Mu Yan. In the main hall, Xiao Jin Feng stood there for a long time before silently leaving Duan Mu Yan's room. His concubine had already become a reality and he had no way of recovering it.
After Xiao Lingfeng left, Yao'er and Zi Min walked into the room.
"Mistress' foresight is indeed amazing. Su Jin Xiu had indeed gone to look for Zhao Yu Xun, and he had also followed Mistress' instructions to confirm Su Jin's pregnancy." Yao'er truthfully reported.
"Mistress, Zi Min doesn't understand. Why would she want Su Jinxiu to believe that she is pregnant? It doesn't seem necessary? " Zi Min was puzzled.
"I've said it before, I'll make her pay a hundredfold of the pain she felt when she added it to Qiu Yue's body …" Leng Ling's voice was filled with a chilling tone. Zi Min and Yao'er looked at each other, feeling touched from the bottom of their hearts.
"How is Yan Wuhen?" Duan Mu Yan looked towards Zi Min.
Reporting to Master, Big Brother Yan has already recruited twelve subordinates for the Pear Blossom Pavilion. According to Master, these twelve subordinates all submit to the concubine's laughter, and according to what Big Brother Yan has said, these twelve people are all extremely vicious murderers, criminals that are on the imperial court's list. As long as they can keep their lives, they will go through thick and thin for the Pear Blossom Pavilion! Zi Min said firmly.
"How can we guarantee their survival?" Duan Mu Yan frowned as he asked doubtfully.
"Rest assured, my lord. Brother Yan has found some gangsters with weak martial arts skills, and Zi Min has changed their appearances to those criminals, then lured the constables to kill them, then bought the coroner's office, and the whole thing will be flawless!" Zi Min said confidently.
"And if the constable wants to keep him alive?" Yao'er raised her brows in doubt.
"Why did Big Brother Yan let them leave him alive …" Up until now, those twelve men had all changed their faces! Moreover, Big Brother Yan had even given them new names, namely Zi Shu, Chou Niu, Yin Hu, and Wu Rabbit. Repeated practice and groping, Confucius Min's appearance changing technique has been comparable to the moonlight palace's colorful butterflies.
"This name is quite strange, but it's quite easy to remember." Duan Muyan's lips parted as she lightly smiled.
"Mistress, I see something strange on Zi Min's face. You didn't notice, but she mentioned Yan Wuhen with her radiant eyebrows …" It was just that she did not know what kind of position Yan Wuhen had in his master's heart. If it was a chess piece that could be abandoned at any time, Yao'er would not want Zi Min to fall too deep into it. She would take this opportunity to speak up, only wanting to know the attitude of Duan Mu Yan.
