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

If she gives in again this time, what will her so-called status as queen mean?

Retribution will come, this is the true satisfaction of revenge.

Due to the empty state treasury, the palace could not even afford a decent lunch, so the guests took their leave one after another.

Although everyone's stomach was growling with hunger, they were all in high spirits, as if they had gained great happiness.

By the afternoon of that day, even the beggars on the street were talking about the explosive news that Shen Luoxi was able to marry Prince Xuan - because she had had sex with Prince Xuan first.

Those who had been talking about it a few days ago, thinking that Shen Muxue was not the true blood of the Duke's Mansion and that her status was too low to be worthy of Prince Xuan, and therefore tried their best to make Prince Xuan marry Shen Luoxi, now felt slapped in the face and ashamed.

In addition, some people speculated that Shen Muxue was suddenly crowned queen because the empress dowager knew the truth behind the matter and out of sympathy hoped that the emperor could make up for the grievances she suffered.

However, what no one expected was that this incident actually aroused the public's new curiosity and attention to the old relationship between the emperor and Shen Muxue, which had an unexpected positive impact.

As night fell, in a peaceful and harmonious atmosphere, the emperor gently pinched the tip of Shen Muxue's delicate and upright nose and said in a joking tone: "I really didn't expect that you would be so naughty."

Shen Muxue said dissatisfiedly, "I am doing this to protect the emperor's reputation. Otherwise, I am afraid that many people would have been talking behind your back, spreading all kinds of rumors, saying that the emperor made me the empress because he had some plans for me. Oh, if such a scandal really came out, I am afraid that the people of the world would be furious. It would be extremely damaging to your image and the stability of the court."

After she finished speaking, she smiled, tilted her head and looked up at the emperor gently, her eyes full of teasing.

"When did you first become interested in me?"

Shen Muxue pretended to be confused and said with an aggrieved look, "Could it be that Your Majesty took advantage of me while I was drugged? And now you are accusing me of being indecent. This really makes me feel heartbroken."

The emperor jokingly said, "Since I have been accused of taking advantage of you, I cannot let it fall on me in vain. I must have an explanation."

While Shen Muxue was busy trying to please others in the palace, Shen Luoxi knelt on the ground of Prince Xuan's mansion and begged for mercy.

King Xuan worked hard all day and only learned what had happened that day in the evening.

He was almost furious because this incident not only ruined his reputation, but also because he married his fiancée's sister, who was pregnant.

In the end, he had to change his mind and marry her.

Even those important officials in the court who had supported him before were now avoiding him.

He had originally expected that marrying Shen Luoxi would bring huge benefits, but he did not expect that his future would be completely ruined because of it.

His eyes were bloodshot as he stared at Shen Luoxi in front of him with hatred, his eyes filled with anger and resentment.

Such a cold and ruthless look made Shen Luoxi feel frightened.

In her memory, Prince Xuan was always so elegant and affectionate. When did he become such a cold and heartless person?

Even the maidservant beside her was so frightened that her legs were shaking and she could hardly stand. She cried and begged for forgiveness, "My queen, you are still pregnant with your offspring. Please calm down and don't hurt the mother. If the Duke knew about this, he would be furious. I'm afraid no one would be able to protect us."

Hearing this, the anger in King Xuan's heart had reached its peak.

Even if Duke Anguo used his daughter to tie him up, it did not mean that he was completely controlled by others and unable to make his own decisions.

Now even an ordinary maid dares to make fun of Duke Anguo and threaten him?

It's simply unbearable.

"I am very curious about how Duke Anguo cherishes your eldest daughter."

King Xuan said this coldly.

After she returned to her ancestral home, except for appearing on the day of her coming-of-age ceremony, Prince Xuan did not hear many words of care from the people sent by the Prince Zhen's Mansion when they visited her.

Especially after accidentally spending the night in the same room with Shen Luoxi that night, her father not only did not show any dissatisfaction, but instead kept asking her to be sent to the family temple to practice meditation. Perhaps in his mind, the only person who was truly valued and cherished was his adopted daughter Shen Muxue?

Thinking of this, King Xuan couldn't help but take a breath.

If this is really a misunderstanding, what should we do if we have really strayed into the wrong path?

As for Shen Luoxi on the other side, she was also thinking silently in her heart. Even though her father did not have a very close attitude towards her, but no matter what, she was her own flesh and blood after all, and blood was thicker than water. She would not give her up easily no matter what.

On the way back home, Mrs. Kang kept comforting Shen Luoxi, persuading her not to take the matter too seriously, and emphasized that as long as she focused on giving birth, all problems would eventually be properly resolved.

That's true. No matter how many rumors there are in the outside world, as long as I stay calm, King Xuan should not really hurt me.

Thinking of this, Shen Luoxi seemed to have found courage and confidence again. She held her head high and said, "After all, my father is my only direct relative in this world. Although he can't give me the same loving care as a mother, at least he will stand in front of me and protect me from the wind and rain when necessary."

However, Prince Xuan just smiled coldly and drove them away, thinking that such arguments would not solve the problem, and he must find a way to find out what the Duke of Anguo's attitude was towards this daughter.

Prince Xuan's heart was actually filled with confusion and anxiety. After all, Duke Anguo's power was unmatched in the court, and his attitude was directly related to Prince Xuan's future power layout.

Rather than offend this important ally directly, he decided to take a more covert approach and investigate the issue from the side.

Shen Luoxi returned to her residence full of confidence, but suddenly received a message: "The prince is worried that the princess is upset, so he recommends that you go to the Buddhist temple to practice and recuperate in the next few days. Don't interfere with family affairs for the time being."

This sudden message was like a bucket of cold water, completely extinguishing the enthusiasm in Shen Luoxi's heart.

She had thought that today's events would make her position more secure, but she had never expected that King Xuan would so easily exclude her from the core of family decision-making.

"how so?!"

Shen Luoxi burst into tears. She couldn't believe that the little progress she had just made was ruthlessly taken away.

Her voice was filled with confusion and anger.
