Hiding her pregnancy and divorce, she stopped licking and the general panicked

Lu Ziqian took Su Yujiao out of the prince's mansion, and the woman slapped him hard.

"Let me go, I'm not going anywhere."

The man sneered: "It's not up to you!"

He brought her to Jin Mudan's residence, still on the rooftop, where Su Yujiao saw a scene she would never forget.

I saw Jin Mudan dancing in the bellyband she designed...

Jin Mudan has loved dancing since she was a child. She doesn't think dancing is to please men, but rather she thinks graceful dancing is an art.

Although there was no word for art in that era, she felt that dancing was a sacred and beautiful thing.

But now, she is dressed like that, dancing in a coquettish and vulgar way!

Opposite her sat a well-dressed man, drinking and admiring her dance.

"come over."

He waved at her, and Jin Mudan stopped, sweating profusely and panting, and she didn't know how long she had been dancing.

She walked up to the man, knelt down naturally, and put her head on his legs, like a kitten, letting the man walk her and stroke her face.

Suddenly, he patted her and said that he had drunk too much and wanted to go to the bathroom.

Then, Su Yujiao saw a scene that she would never forget.

"Ugh..." She couldn't help but dry heave, and Lu Ziqian took her away.

She seemed to be terrified, with goose bumps all over her body, trembling and collapsing...

"Why is this happening?"

"How could she?"

"Who is that man?"

Lu Ziqian held her in his arms, gently stroked her back, and explained, "The financial backer behind Jin Mudan is the eldest son of the Prime Minister's family, Mo Lingchen!"

"Without his protection, Jin Mudan wouldn't be able to establish herself as a female household, nor would she be able to do business."

"Even if you redeem her, she will still be a prostitute again."

"So, she will do her best to please Mo Lingchen, so that... she only has to serve one man, instead of serving a group of men."

"She never told you these things, did she?"

"How carefree do you think she is?"

"A person who is free and carefree, without the control of parents-in-law and without having to please her husband?"

"Do you still want to be the Third Prince's concubine now?"

"Oh, do you want me to take you to see the consequences of being someone's concubine?"

"Let's not even talk about the high-ranking officials and nobles. Just look at the gentry and wealthy merchants. They all have groups of spittoon maids, foot-warming maids, and toilet maids in their homes..."

"I won't tell you what it does specifically, but you should understand it based on the literal meaning!"

"Do you still think it's your misfortune to marry me?"

"Do you still insist on getting a divorce?"

"Without my approval, you can't register as a daughter-in-law, and you can't continue your business with Zhang Wansan. And you can't take away any of the banknotes, jewelry, and all the money you earned in your husband's family with you."

"Your only place to stay is to return to your mother's home, where you will be despised by your parents and ostracized by your sister-in-law. In the end, they will personally send you to the Third Prince's bed as a plaything to save your eldest brother."

"Once the Third Prince tires of you, you'll be like Concubine Liu. You'll have to serve whoever he tells you to."

Lu Ziqian pinched her chin and said, "Su Yujiao, I protected you too well, which is why you are so naive."

"Xiao Tao is much more clear-headed than you. She knows that without my protection, you won't survive."

"I'll give you one day to think it over. Do you still want to continue to mess with me?!"

"My patience is limited. If you still can't understand your place and continue to be arrogant because of my favor, I will make you kneel down and serve others like Jin Mudan."

Lu Ziqian left Su Yujiao in a small courtyard in the east of the city and left alone.

That night, Su Yujiao had nightmares so much that she had a high fever all night.

"Don't...don't..."

"Mom...I miss you so much..."

"I want to go home. This place... is so scary..."

Lu Ziqian held her hand and listened to her talking in her sleep all night. There were many words that he found unfamiliar.

The man's eyes were full of guilt. He didn't expect that he would treat her like this!

Looking at her haggard little face, he felt distressed and helpless.

The imperial doctors came one after another, but Su Yujiao still had a high fever.

"Doctor Zhou, why can't you cure a minor cold or fever?"

Doctor Zhou sighed, "Heart disease needs to be treated with heart medicine. Young Madam is suffering from heart disease. She herself does not want to wake up. No matter how much medicine is used, it will be useless."

"General, please try to untie her knot, otherwise the young lady will be in danger!!"

Lu Ziqian's face was gloomy: "Is it really that serious?"

“How can I open her heart?”

Doctor Zhou thought for a moment and said, "Try to say something that the young lady would like to hear, or maybe wake her up."

"By the way, you can also try the method of rubbing the body with wine that Doctor Su used before."

"My medical skills are not very good. If Doctor Su were here, he would definitely be able to cure the young lady's illness."

Listening to what Doctor Zhou said, Lu Ziqian was more worried than ever before. He didn't expect the consequences to be so serious.

If he had known this, he would definitely not have scared her last night.

In fact, that is not a scare tactic, it is the fact that a woman has no way to survive if she leaves her husband's home.

Unexpectedly, she was so scared!

After Doctor Zhou left, Lu Ziqian took Su Yujiao's skinny hand and touched it gently. He didn't know that she had lost so much weight during this period of time?

"Jiaojiao, I was wrong last night. I shouldn't have taken you to see those things."

"As long as you wake up, you can hit me and scold me, I will never say those harsh words to you."

"Those were just angry words. I would never treat you like that."

"I'm just angry that you would rather marry the Third Prince as a concubine than live a good life with me."

"I lost my mind when I heard you were going to leave me..."

"I already knew about Prince Xiao's death. No wonder you lost control of your emotions last night."

"If this method doesn't work, there will be other ways..."

Lu Ziqian stayed by the bed for three days and three nights, and Su Yujiao finally woke up.

"Are you awake?" the man asked excitedly.

Meeting his surprised eyes, Su Yujiao seemed much colder.

She stared at him for a long time. He made her see the cruelty of reality and also made her realize how naive she was before.

From now on, she will have to scheme against him, only in this way can she survive!

Suddenly, the woman buried her face in his palms, and her hot tears seemed to brand his heart.

Seeing her like this, Lu Ziqian felt really distressed. He coaxed her softly, "Be good, don't cry."

"My eyes are swollen from crying."

Su Yujiao choked up and said, "Prince Xiao is dead, and we have failed again this time."

The man hugged her and comforted her softly: "God's will is to play tricks on us, but there will always be other ways."

"Brother is safe for now. I have sent people to secretly protect him. I am not afraid of the Third Prince doing anything bad."

"The Crown Prince also used a little trick to assign him the task of escorting the marriage team."

"He has been away from the capital for at least half a year."

"We still have time to think of other solutions."

Su Yujiao suddenly grabbed Lu Ziqian's hand: "Ziqian, I want to ask you for something!!"

"As long as you promise me, I will never make trouble with you again. Even if you want to marry Chen Yunniang as your co-wife, I will not object."

She looked at him pleadingly!
