The Flirtatious Prince and His Savage Concubine

Lu Lingxi knew that Gu Yan'er was only about two months pregnant and was not yet stable. He could not let her get too excited, so he obediently went to the table and poured himself some water.

Gu Yan'er also got off the bed and sat at the table to chat with Lu Lingxi.

After Lu Lingxi drank the water from the teacup in one gulp, he asked with concern, "Sister-in-law, how do you feel during this period of pregnancy? Are you feeling unwell? Are there any areas where the servants have not taken good care of you? Do you need me to help you find some maids who specialize in serving pregnant ladies?"

Gu Yan'er shook her head: "No, no, I'm fine, I don't feel any discomfort, and the morning sickness is not too obvious, I'm not uncomfortable. Uncle Wei arranged a special nanny to take care of me the next day after he learned that I was pregnant. He also sent several more maids, and now everyone in the mansion is revolving around me. Uncle Wei also sent a letter to my father and Yu Gang to announce the good news. He may have received the letter a few days ago. Alas..."

Lu Lingxi was puzzled: "Sister-in-law, everything is fine, why are you still sighing? Are you bored in the mansion all day with no one to relieve your boredom, and you are still feeling a little depressed?"

Gu Yan'er was afraid that Lu Lingxi would worry, so she quickly denied it: "No, no, I don't feel depressed at all, I'm just worried about mother. After all, being pregnant at an advanced age, her body can't handle it. I heard that she had severe morning sickness and couldn't eat. She lost a lot of weight in the past month or two. I heard that she fainted a few days ago. Daddy is also very anxious, worrying all day whether mother can hold on until the day of delivery."

"What did the doctor say?"

Gu Yan'er: "The doctor said it's normal. Some pregnant women experience more severe morning sickness than the average person in the early stages of pregnancy. Now that I take pregnancy-maintaining medicine every day, the fetus is relatively stable. Perhaps after the first three months, the morning sickness will be alleviated."

Lu Lingxi didn't know much about childbirth, so she could only comfort him, "Since the doctor said it's okay, then there should be no problem. Don't worry too much about Aunt Qin, and take care of yourself."

It is definitely impossible to say that I am not worried at all, I can only relax a little.

In order to relieve Gu Yan'er's mood, Lu Lingxi changed the subject and said, "Sister-in-law, guess what good things I brought you this time?"

Without waiting for Gu Yan'er to answer, Lu Lingxi called the people guarding the door: "Chunhong, Liulv, ask them to bring the things I sent for my nephew."

Everything was placed on the table, all children's clothes, inner clothes, outer clothes, thick and thin, hats, shoes, socks, swaddles, collars, longevity locks, jade pendants, sachets... everything Lu Lingxi could think of that a child might need was prepared.

Gu Yan'er looked at the table full of things and laughed, "Lingxi, you've prepared too much, and too early. There's still more than half a year before the baby is born."

Speaking of children, Gu Yan'er couldn't help but touch her belly, which had not yet bulged, lovingly.

Lu Lingxi raised the corner of her mouth slightly, and teased with a smile: "Look, as a mother, her heart and eyes are full of her husband! At this moment, she is still busy sewing underwear for her husband. Alas, if I, as an aunt, don't worry more about the unborn baby and make more preparations, I am afraid that when the child is born, there will be no decent clothes! By then, the little guy will be frozen and blue all over, and his pitiful appearance is really heartbreaking!"

Gu Yan'er's cheeks instantly turned red like ripe apples, and she looked so beautiful. She glared at the other person coquettishly and complained in a tone that was neither angry nor angry: "Oh, that's enough! You are the only one who feels sorry for children. Since you like children so much, why don't you get pregnant with one yourself? Humph!" After that, she stomped her feet lightly, as if this could express the slight dissatisfaction and shyness in her heart.

The two of them were like a pair of happy enemies, teasing and joking with each other, and time passed unnoticed in their cheerful laughter. In this way, they kept joking and playing with each other for a long time.

Near noon, the sun shines on the exquisite courtyard of Zhenguohou Mansion, casting patches of mottled light and shadow. At this time, the sumptuous lunch is ready, and Lu Lingxi is warmly invited to stay and enjoy it. She happily agrees, and sits around the dining table with Gu Yan'er, enjoying the pleasant feeling brought by the delicious food and warm atmosphere.

After lunch, Lu Lingxi stood up and said goodbye to Gu Yan'er. With a heart full of joy and satisfaction, she slowly walked out of the gate of Zhenguo Marquis's Mansion and set out on the road back to the Prince's Mansion. Along the way, the breeze gently blew her hair, as if cheering for her happy day.

However, when Lu Lingxi returned to the Prince's Mansion, he saw from afar that Concubine Shang's personal maid Yunhong was standing at the door and pacing back and forth anxiously. Yunhong stretched her neck to look outside the door from time to time, her face full of worry. When she saw Lu Lingxi's figure, she rushed forward as if she had been pardoned, and even did not bother to greet him, and she hurriedly reported: "My Lady, something bad has happened! I don't know why there is trouble in this mansion again!"

Lu Lingxi was full of doubts, not understanding why such a mess suddenly occurred. Yunhong pulled her anxiously and hurriedly walked towards the main hall of the meeting room, and told her in detail what happened on the way.

It turned out that not long after Lu Lingxi left the palace, the two maids in her palace who were responsible for taking care of Chang Wei and Xiaohua took them for a walk in the courtyard as usual. Who would have thought that the two little guys would not obey orders and ran straight to the Xuanming Hall of the Crown Prince's concubine Zhu. As soon as they entered the hall, they began to run around, making the entire Xuanming Hall a mess.

As everyone was trying to catch the two troublemakers, they unexpectedly discovered a puppet used for witchcraft in the hall. Even more shocking was that the puppet was soaked in a basin of water, and the birth date engraved on it was exactly that of Miss Su Yun, who had left the mansion and returned home earlier!

At this moment, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, his concubine, Consort Wang, and other ladies in the palace have all gathered in the conference room, waiting for Crown Princess Lu Lingxi to arrive.

After listening to this, Lu Lingxi couldn't help but frown, feeling more and more confused. She thought to herself: Wasn't this drowning incident carefully planned by Nan Wangyu himself? Obviously, this matter has been settled and ended long ago! But why is the so-called witchcraft involved now? Not only that, it even implicated another concubine! What kind of intricate conspiracy and secrets are hidden in this? Lu Lingxi felt as if she was trapped in a bottomless mystery and it was difficult to sort out the clues.
