The day her husband welcomed the time-traveling girl into the house, she woke up

"Miss, the Grand Princess has sent someone to say she'll be free tomorrow. It just so happens that the first act of the Villain will be re-performed at the Peacock Terrace tomorrow morning. She's already sent someone to reserve a private room."

When Cuiwei went to Li Shu's bedside to report this, Li Shu had just recovered from a high fever. She was covered in sweat and too weak to answer. She just nodded slightly in response.

Therefore, Nanny Gui, who was carefully wiping her sweat, immediately said to her, "Young lady, you are in such a state now. You may not be well tomorrow! How about you send a message to the Grand Princess and postpone it to the day after tomorrow?"

Li Shu shook her head gently again.

If her illness was really caused by loss of luck as she thought.

So if tomorrow is not good, the day after tomorrow may not be good either.

Aunt Gui frowned, but didn't say anything else. She turned around and went to make soup for Li Shu.

After she left, Li Shu paused for a moment, sent Cuiwei and the others away, and then asked Lin Yuan, "Is there any medicine that can put a person into a coma for a long time without harming the body?"

"Yes, I wonder who you want to use it on, Miss?"

"Queen."

"Although the Queen isn't as evil as Lin Qi, Fengyi Palace is the most heavily guarded place in the entire harem these days. If Miss wants to drug the Queen, I'll need to personally take action to succeed."

"..."

Li Shu hesitated for a moment because Lin Yuan used the word "maybe" before continuing, "You should sneak into the palace tonight and do this. If you encounter any danger, you must retreat immediately if you fail. I will wait for you to come back."

Waiting for him to come back...

Lin Yuan's heart skipped a beat, and after a while he finally said, "Yes, I'll take my leave now. I have to go back to the building to prepare the medicine."

Li Shu nodded, and waited until he climbed out the window skillfully before slowly curling up the corners of her mouth.

His ears are red again!

So cute!

Ning Jin's ears had turned red because of holding her hand and kissing her...

Just as I was thinking about it, Cuiwei knocked on the door again and came in and said, "Sixth Miss is here. Do you want to see her?"

"Did she say why she came?"

"She didn't say anything, but her eyes were very red, as if she had just cried."

"..."

Could it be that I have encountered a situation where I can't control myself again?

Thinking of that, Li Shu immediately sat up and said, "Let her in."

"Yes."

After Cuiwei responded, she stuffed two pillows behind Li Shu before leaving.

Ning Keyi then entered the room alone and saw Li Shu leaning against the bed with a particularly bad look on her face. She was slightly stunned and asked, "Is sister-in-law sick?"

"Well, I caught a cold when I went out today."

"Is it serious?"

"It's nothing serious, just a little fever."

"Then... I won't bother you to rest. I'll come back another day..."

As she spoke, Ning Keyi wanted to turn around and leave.

Li Shu frowned slightly and interrupted her, "Aren't you here because of what happened between you and your daughter?"

Ning Keyi was stunned and shook her head.

"Then you came here in this state... could it be related to Li Jin?"

"..."

Ning Keyi opened her eyes slightly in disbelief, walked quickly to the bed and said, "Sister-in-law, you are so amazing. You can even guess this?"

Then, she frowned again and asked, "Or does sister-in-law already know?"

Li Shu shook her head. "I've been feeling very sick since I came back from the East Palace today, and I haven't heard anything yet. Now that you're here, tell me about it."

"But sister-in-law, are you okay?"

"It's okay. I haven't started to feel cold yet, and I shouldn't have a fever again in the near future."

"Sister-in-law, have you asked the court doctor to see you? If not, I can recommend a doctor in Beijing with excellent medical skills. Whenever my grandfather and his family have a cold, they always go to see that doctor, and he can cure it with just one dose of medicine!"

"..."

Li Shu smiled and shook her head, pointing to the edge of the bed for Ning Ke to sit down, and then said, "The maids around me all know some medical skills. I have already taken the medicine, so there is no need to call the palace doctor or find a doctor."

Ning Keyi then sat down on the edge of the bed, twisting her handkerchief and saying, "Before, when we were in the hunting grounds, Princess Feiyun was always by my sister-in-law's side, so I didn't have the chance to tell her. On the day that mother and General Li both rushed to the hunting grounds because of Xie Yu's pregnancy, they had actually already finalized my marriage with Li Jin and had also arranged that they would come to propose marriage in the next few days. But this morning, mother called me in and said that General Li was dissatisfied with her for having someone force Xie Yu to drink abortion drugs, which caused Xie Yu to have a heart attack and she is still in danger. So he canceled my marriage with Li Jin..."

Having said this, Ning Keyi choked up and stopped talking, wiping the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief.

Li Shu frowned slightly.

I wondered if Ning Keyi had fallen in love with Li Jin.

Then she heard Ning Keyi continue, "Xie Yu got pregnant with my eldest brother's child without any proper status, which is already despicable. She even maliciously wanted to accuse my eldest sister-in-law of murdering my eldest brother's bloodline. It's only natural that my mother couldn't tolerate the child in Xie Yu's belly.

Although General Li has adopted Xie Yu as his goddaughter, he can't completely ignore the fact that she is still the daughter-in-law of the Ning family just because of Xie Yu! So I couldn't accept it, so I ran to their general's mansion to find Li Jin, wanting to ask him what he thought. Who would have thought that he neither agreed with General Li's quarrel with his mother for Xie Yu, nor opposed General Li canceling my marriage with him.

Even though I knew very well that he had no interest in me at all, and that I was blinded by the thought of becoming his legal wife and had fallen in love with him, I was still very angry and aggrieved. If he had no interest in me, why did he agree to the marriage? And why should my marriage be completely decided by my mother?

After she finished speaking, Ning Keyi covered her face and sobbed.

Li Shu didn't speak to comfort her immediately.

She was a little surprised that Ning Keyi's inability to accept was partly because of her.

And she could probably guess that Ning Keyi was crying so sadly at this moment. Besides being angry and wronged, she was also worried about who Xu Daijun would point her to in the future.

Therefore, she waited until Ning Keyi had cried enough and gradually calmed down before asking, "Hasn't your aunt been looking for someone for you before?"

Ning Keyi nodded, "At that time, my aunt hadn't chosen anyone yet, and my mother came to me to tell me that Li Jin wanted to marry me, so I hadn't found anyone yet."

"Then let her continue to look for you. With your maternal family as your backing, they will always be able to choose a more suitable husband for you."

"Well, sister-in-law, are you saying that Li Jin is not a good match for me?"

After Ning Keyi finished asking, without waiting for Li Shu to answer, she nodded and said, "I actually know this, but I just had some delusional thoughts..."

After a pause, Ning Keyi continued, "I'm sorry, sister-in-law, I disturbed your rest. I just returned to the mansion, and for some reason I couldn't control my emotions. I didn't want to go back and let my aunt see me and make them worry, so I came to you, sister-in-law..."

Li Shu smiled and shook her head, and asked Cuiwei to get a towel to apply to Ning Keyi's eyes.

After that, he asked Cuiwei to get some ointment to reduce redness and swelling for Ning Keyi to apply.

After Ning Keyi stayed in her room until her eyes, which were red and swollen from crying, had almost recovered, she began to feel cold again.

Then, as Ning Keyi was leaving, she asked, "Li Yunzhi only said that Xie Yu had a heart attack and was still in critical condition, but he didn't say that she had a miscarriage, right?"
