Good luck in pregnancy, the daughter of the prime minister's mansion has a soft waist

Shen Muxue smiled slightly and gently threw a Hehuan Pill into the incense burner. Suddenly, a faint fragrance filled the air.

"Then I'll trouble you, sister. Your Majesty, please wait a moment. I'll be back soon."

Although Prince Xuan expressed his loyalty to Shen Muxue yesterday, when he saw Shen Luoxi, he felt a little uncomfortable to directly reject Shen Luoxi's warm hospitality.

The two began to chat about family matters in a casual manner, and the atmosphere seemed a little awkward and subtle.

Shen Luoxi tried every possible means and used all kinds of tricks to try to make King Xuan interested in her, but she soon found that it was all in vain.

She abandoned those indirect strategies, took out a pill from her sleeve, and calmly put it into the tea prepared for King Xuan.

King Xuan did not doubt it. He took the teacup, took a sip gently, and his expression was calm.

At the same time, Shen Muxue came to the study of Duke Anguo and saw her father's surprised expression, but she was not surprised and did not say that it was Shen Luoxi who asked her to come.

Her tone was calm but firm: "Father, I have something to discuss with you."

Duke Anguo has always raised Shen Muxue as his treasure. During this period of time, he found that his daughter has grown up and is becoming more steady and reliable in her work. An indescribable feeling of relief surged in his heart.

"Okay, sit down and talk slowly."

He smiled and gestured for Shen Muxue to sit down, his eyes full of care and encouragement.

Shen Muxue followed his instructions and sat down in front of her father. She said seriously, "Father, I really don't want to marry Prince Xuan. In the past, I always considered the Queen Mother's opinion and didn't dare to raise any objections. But now Prince Xuan and I are a good match. Even if I don't marry him, it would be great for me to marry him. Therefore, I would like to ask you to help me cancel my engagement with Prince Xuan and let me marry him in my place."

Although Duke Anguo spent most of his time in the military camp, it did not mean that he knew nothing about what was happening at home.

Hearing Shen Muxue's words, his expression instantly became serious, "Could it be that your mother is giving you a hard time?"

"No, Father, you misunderstood. That's not what I meant. In fact, I didn't want this marriage from the beginning, but I didn't dare to speak up for fear of disappointing the elders. Now that my sister is also interested in marrying Prince Xuan, I feel I can withdraw without any worries. In this way, my sister's marriage to Prince Xuan will also benefit our family."

Shen Muxue spoke very sincerely, but Duke Anguo did not believe it at all. He was convinced that there must be some conspiracy of Mrs. Kang hidden in this.

"Call your mother and Luo Xi over here. Don't worry, your father will definitely make the decision for you."

Duke Anguo comforted him.

What worried her most was that this fervent fatherly heart would run wildly in the wrong direction.

Shen Muxue hurriedly explained, "Father, Mother is chanting sutras, and my sister is currently in my courtyard. Prince Xuan is also there. I believe he will agree to marry my sister. Why don't you go and ask him in person?"

Duke Anguo decided to go to the backyard with Shen Muxue. On the one hand, he had to see the prince in person. After all, he couldn't let the prince come to the study by himself, which would be impolite. On the other hand, he also wanted to take this opportunity to see the living conditions of his adopted daughter and confirm whether Madam Kang had treated her badly.

The Luoying Courtyard was bustling with people, and the fragrance of various flowers filled the air, which was fascinating.

Prince Xuan and Shen Luoxi sat in the middle of the courtyard, both of them sweating profusely, their eyes looking at each other more and more passionately.

After spending these few days together, their relationship seems to be gradually warming up.

"Your Highness~" A delicate voice reached Prince Xuan's ears. The voice was as sweet as a dewdrop just picked, which made people's hearts soften involuntarily.

The voice touched the softest part of Prince Xuan's heart. For a moment, he was distracted and his heartbeat accelerated. The two of them soon hugged each other tightly.

Duke Anguo had just taken his first step into the yard and had not yet fully adapted to the slightly cool atmosphere in the yard when he faintly heard some subtle and ambiguous sounds coming from a room.

This made Duke Anguo's expression instantly become extremely complicated.

First, it turned a little red due to embarrassment, and then it turned a dark blue due to anger.

He subconsciously wanted to rush over and break the door open, but considering that doing so would probably scare his adopted daughter, after all, he was deeply protective of this child whom he had treated as his own since childhood, so in the end he just gritted his teeth and forcibly suppressed the urge in his heart that wanted to explode immediately.

"Go get your mother over."

These words seemed to be squeezed out from the throat of Duke Anguo in a rough and low voice. It was obvious that he had used all his strength to keep himself calm.

After hearing this, Shen Muxue felt extremely upset, fearing that this series of events would affect her peaceful life and future destiny, so she immediately ran out, moving so fast that it seemed as if a group of hungry wolves were chasing her.

Kang had actually been mentally prepared for everything that was going to happen today, because she clearly remembered that she had secretly given a medicine to her own daughter, the girl named Shen Luoxi, not long ago.

Just last night, she saw her daughter come to her with tears in her eyes and tell her about her inner anxiety and uneasiness, saying that Prince Xuan had been deliberately avoiding her recently and no longer met her privately. This made the little girl who always longed to be valued and pampered feel very panicked and afraid of losing the last chance of contact.

Therefore, early this morning, when she learned that Prince Xuan was visiting the mansion in person, an idea immediately came to her mind: This might be the best time to help Shen Luoxi achieve her wish and seize the last opportunity!

Thinking of this, her hands trembled slightly, but she finally gained her conviction and took action to support her child.

So when she saw Shen Muxue coming to her in a panic for help, Kang knew in her heart that everything was going according to plan, but on the surface she deliberately appeared calm and composed, and walked slowly towards Luoyingyuan.

Before she actually walked into the yard, something suddenly flew towards her head and hit her forehead with a "bang".

Then a series of angry words rang out: "Look at what a good daughter you have taught!"

Faced with this sudden situation, Kang was caught off guard for a moment. However, she quickly regained her composure, turned her head and glanced at Shen Muxue, who was also standing outside the door at a loss, and then gently retreated to her position outside the door and stood still.

In this small courtyard, even if you stand far away, you can clearly hear all kinds of sounds coming from inside. There is no need to risk getting close to the core area that may cause more disputes. In particular, you must pay attention to protecting your clothes from accidental damage.
