After being read, the abstinent prince bullies others with his wife every day

"No, no, I'm just worried about your sister-in-law and the fetus in her belly." Yun Sheng pressed his eyebrows and said with a slight smile.

"Don't worry, big brother. I'll check my sister-in-law when we get to the general's mansion," Lin Shuning consoled her. "Brother, have you found out who did this?"

Yun Sheng frowned and said, "I haven't found out yet, but the guards in the mansion have been strengthened recently. Your sister-in-law's meals are checked by my confidants every day. Things like the past will not happen again."

"That's good." Lin Shuning nodded thoughtfully.

The two men talked for a few more words and soon arrived at the place.

The carriage stopped steadily.

At the gate of the general's mansion stood a beautiful woman.

She was wearing a light white feather gauze crane cloak, and the goose yellow brocade skirt underneath made her look gentle and elegant. A transparent emerald green jade hairpin was inserted diagonally in her towering hair bun, making her look restrained yet dignified.

She gently stroked her belly and looked at the carriage with a gentle gaze. When she saw Lin Shuning jumping down from the carriage, her eyes lit up instantly and she quickly stepped forward and said, "Sister, why are you here?"

Lin Shuning smiled and held her hand. Seeing that her face was rosy, but she looked much thinner than the last time he saw her, he immediately felt her pulse without making a sound.

Steady and strong is a sign of health.

Lin Shuning felt relieved and smiled sweetly, her lips as if covered with honey: "Of course I missed my sister-in-law, so I came here."

"You are so sweet-talker." Wei Xi stretched out his hand and tapped her forehead coquettishly.

Yun Sheng walked over from behind Lin Shuning and explained with a smile: "On the way back home, I happened to meet you on the road. My sister heard that you have been suffering from severe morning sickness recently, so she came to visit you specially."

"This is just a normal phenomenon. Why do you bother your sister?" Wei Xi complained in dissatisfaction, but his face was full of joy.

"Sister-in-law, don't listen to what your brother says. I just missed you and came to check on you." Lin Shuning put her arm around Wei Xi and said coquettishly.

"Okay, okay," Wei Xi smiled from ear to ear, his eyes soft, "Come in quickly, I'll ask the kitchen to make you something you like to eat tonight."

"Sister-in-law is the best!" Lin Shuning cheered.

The two of them walked into the mansion arm in arm, completely ignoring Yun Sheng who was standing beside them. He shook his head, sighed, but a doting smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

After passing through the corridor, we came to the courtyard. Many flowers in the yard had withered, and the petals had fallen to the ground and turned it into mud color. Only the osmanthus flowers were blooming brilliantly. Even before we got close, we could smell the strong fragrance of the flowers.

Wei Xi peeled a grape for Lin Shuning and placed it on the porcelain plate in front of her: "I heard that you went to the palace to treat the emperor not long ago and offended Concubine An in public. Did she embarrass you?

She has the Duke's Mansion behind her to rely on, and she is usually very arrogant and looks down on everyone. I'm sure she won't give up easily."

"The Duke's Mansion?" Lin Shuning asked in surprise. He picked up a grape and put it in his mouth. "No wonder she is so bold. It's not like I offended her in public. The reason why the emperor is seriously ill is just a play directed and performed by Concubine An to frame Concubine Xi."

The palace really went to great lengths to keep this matter secret.

"What did you say?" Wei Xi covered his mouth and looked at Yun Sheng who was sitting next to him.

Yun Sheng was also very surprised: "Are you saying that the emperor's illness was caused by Concubine An?"

"That's right, she poisoned the emperor with the intention of murdering Concubine Xi." Lin Shuning said.

"Oh my God... This is a crime punishable by the execution of nine generations of the clan..." Wei Xi murmured in disbelief: "Why would the emperor still keep her?"

Yun Sheng's eyes gradually darkened. "Not only does this Concubine An have the support of the Duke's Mansion, but more importantly, she is the granddaughter of the late Empress Dowager Ci, and the Emperor was raised by the late Empress Dowager Ci. Perhaps it is because of this relationship that the Emperor showed some favor to her."

"So there is this connection. No wonder Concubine An is so bold. This time she has reaped the consequences of her own actions." Lin Shuning peeled another grape and put it in her mouth. The sweet and refreshing taste made her close her eyes in satisfaction.

But his hand was suddenly held by someone.

She opened her eyes in a daze, and saw Wei Xi looking at her with a worried look on his face: "In the future, you must not get involved in such things. If you are involved and something goes wrong, what will you do?"

"I agree with what your sister-in-law said," Yun Sheng also spoke in a rare serious tone, "If someone comes to trouble you in the future, don't be afraid. Remember that you have the support of the General's Mansion behind you. If you have any problems, just come to me."

Wei Xi nodded in agreement, the concern in his eyes seemed to overflow.

Looking at the two faces in front of her who were frowning because of worry about her, Lin Shuning was absent-minded for a moment. It had been a long time since anyone cared about her like this.

She has always been a person with few relatives.

She lost her parents soon after she was born and had to live with her grandfather. Her grandfather loved her but he died early, and she was sent to an orphan, where she had to depend on many other children with the same miserable fate as her.

After traveling through time and space in this body in place of the original owner, even though he still has a father and mother, it is worse than having them.

It can be said that she has never felt the love of her parents in both of her lives.

She had never thought that the family affection she longed for most would be found from two people who had only known each other for a few short months.

At this moment, she actually wanted to let down all her defenses and burst into tears, but her mind told her not to. She valued her own tenacity more than her emotions, and she would not allow herself to be weak.

Lin Shuning sniffed, suppressed his emotions, and said with a smile as if nothing had happened: "Brother, sister-in-law, don't worry, I will protect myself and won't let you worry."

"That's good," Wei Xi looked at her determined expression and breathed a sigh of relief, "Girl, don't be so formal with us. This general's mansion is your home."

After thinking about it, he seemed to feel that something was wrong and added: "Your second home."

Lin Shuning smiled faintly, but a sense of sadness welled up in his heart. Can a place like the Shangshu Mansion, a den of tigers and wolves, still be considered a home?

The sun gradually set. After Lin Shuning accompanied Wei Xi and Yun Sheng for dinner, he took a carriage back to the Shangshu Mansion, taking advantage of the last bit of sunlight before the sun completely set.

Lian'er had prepared a table of food early. When she saw Lin Shuning coming back, she couldn't help but ask, "Miss, why did you come back so late today? Did something happen?"

Lin Shuning shook her head and sat down at the table. She looked at the delicious food and burped. She waved her hand and said, "Lian'er, take these away and heat them up tomorrow morning. I've already had dinner at the General's Mansion."

"Yes, Miss." Lian'er saw that she was not in a good mood, so she didn't ask any more questions. After clearing away all the food, she went back to the next room to rest.

Lin Shuning took off his coat, lay on the couch, and sighed heavily.

Xiaobai floated out from the space: "Host, what's wrong with you? Why are you so depressed? Did you suffer a blow?"

Lin Shuning covered his eyes: "I just feel that I don't know what I should do or what I shouldn't do now. It seems that everything is being pushed away. I originally thought that I would leave Beijing when I saved enough money, but now..."

She couldn't bear to leave the clinic she had run with great effort, and she couldn't bear to leave Yun Sheng and his wife...

I can’t bear to part with those abdominal muscles that feel great to the touch.

"I don't know what else I can do after leaving the capital. Should I continue to run the clinic?"

"So that's what you're worrying about," Xiaobai floated in front of Lin Shuning, "The most important thing for you now is to work hard to save money, because there is a mysterious function hidden in this space."
