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

Chapter 54: Does he have thoughts that he shouldn’t have?

"how do I say this?"

"My Lord, you forgot that last year, during an argument between Jin'er and Li Shu, he accidentally let slip that during those two years he spent on the battlefield, he had suffered a near-fatal injury. Afterwards, Li Shu begged the Empress, and soon after, the Empress sent several female doctors to teach her medicine!"

"That's true, but didn't those female doctors only stay in our mansion for less than a month before returning to the palace? Studying medicine is not an easy task. I'm afraid Li Shu won't even have a chance in less than a month..."

"Those female doctors did return to the palace in less than a month, but they left Li Shu quite a few medical books. And ever since then, every time Li Shu goes to the palace, she always brings back several medical books. She also always has a lot of medical books in her room, and she spends a lot of time reading them every day. With her intelligence, even if her medical skills are not yet good enough to prescribe medicine, she can definitely tell if she's pregnant! And a few days ago, after she caught a cold after falling into the water, she asked the court doctor to get her some medicine, but she didn't let him take her pulse at that time!"

"You suspect that she already knew she was pregnant, so she didn't let the court doctor take her pulse?"

Ning Shuyang asked with a frown, and after Xu Daijun nodded, he continued, "Pregnant women shouldn't use many medicines carelessly. If it's true, as you think, that she knew she was pregnant but asked the doctor to prescribe medicine without informing her, then she might have had a miscarriage when she fell into the water. After waking up, she took her own pulse and found out she was pregnant, but she also found out she couldn't keep the baby. So, why has her temperament changed so drastically recently?"

Xu Daijun shook his head. "My Lord, your reasoning is quite reasonable, but... I just don't feel that it's right..."

"Do you still suspect that Li Shu didn't have a miscarriage? When there was nothing wrong with the child, you guessed that you were going to punish Jin'er for being caught in a cold night, and you did something in advance to make her lose the child during the punishment?"

"Yes! That's right! I hadn't sorted out the myriad of chaotic intuitions in my mind, but after hearing what the Marquis said, everything became clear to me instantly! You truly are the Marquis!"

"..."

Ning Shuyang hesitated for a few moments before finally saying, "Even before Li Shu came into your life, you treated her like your own daughter. You know her like the back of your hand, even without her saying it. You must have known her all too well. Do you really think she would do something like abandoning her own flesh and blood in a fit of anger?"

Xu Daijun was suddenly silent after hearing his question.

To be honest, although she had many dissatisfactions and complaints about Li Shu because Jin'er could not take a concubine after marrying Li Shu, she still liked Li Shu's way of doing things.

So when she first learned that Li Shu treated Xie Yu well on the surface but made things difficult for her secretly, she didn't believe it at all. If it weren't for the fact that Jin'er valued Xie Yu so much, which made her think that Xie Yu might become Jin'er's concubine in the future and help Jin'er have children, how could she have turned a blind eye to it and let Jin'er quarrel with Li Shu because of Xie Yu!

Li Shu is also an extremely smart person. She has been trying her best to please her since she came into the family. She even tries her best to take care of those concubines whom she values. Li Shu knows very well that if Jin'er marries her, he will not be able to take a concubine, which will make her, the mother-in-law, unhappy.

In addition, Li Shu was influenced by her mother when she was young and did not believe in gods and Buddhas. But when Jin'er set his ambition to join the army to gain experience so that he could inherit his father's career in the future, she began to believe. During the two years when Jin'er followed his father to the war, no matter it was windy, rainy, or even snowy, she would insist on going to Nanshan Temple to pray for Jin'er, which shows how deeply she loves Jin'er.

It is impossible for Li Shu, who is like that, to not want her and Jin'er's child for no reason!

So Li Shu really changed her personality because she had a miscarriage that day due to sunset, which resulted in the loss of the baby, and she was also wrongly accused by Jin'er of pushing Xie Yu and kept forcing her to apologize to Xie Yu?

Why did she always feel that something was not right?

Xu Daijun frowned so hard, she was so upset and worried that she didn't even hear Ning Shuyang talking to her.

When she finally came to her senses and saw Ning Shuyang had left, she immediately asked Nanny, "Where is the Marquis?"

"He went to the concubine's place..." Nanny Xiang saw Xu Daijun's expression change before she finished speaking. She quickly added, "The Marquis told the princess about this before he left, but the princess didn't seem to hear it..."

"Humph! Even if I heard him, he still had to go to that bitch's place! He hasn't been back home for over half a month! And with such a big thing happening in the mansion today, he actually left me behind to go to that bitch's place!"

"Madam, calm down! Perhaps the Marquis just went over to take a look, and will come back later..."

"When has he ever come out after entering that bitch's house?"

"..."

Nanny Xiang didn't dare to speak.

Fortunately, Xu Daijun just slammed the table and asked her again, "Where's Jin'er?"

"It seems he's staying around the bamboo garden, but the Crown Prince's wife still refuses to let him in..."

"Tsk! That little bitch Li Shu is still making trouble for Qiao!"

At this time, Li Shu had just fallen asleep in the bamboo garden.

After Nanny Gui sent Qinghong Cuiwei out, she was just about to burn some calming incense when Lin Yuan appeared silently from behind her.

She was so scared that she almost screamed out loud.

So she covered her mouth and glared at Lin Yuan several times in annoyance.

But Lin Yuan ignored her and knelt down in front of the bed. He carefully moved Li Shu's hand out from under the quilt and concentrated on taking Li Shu's pulse.

The resentment in Aunt Gui's heart instantly dissipated. After burning some calming incense, she walked over and asked in a low voice, "How is it?"

Lin Yuan said seriously, "No problem, just take good care of her. I've prepared a recipe for the young lady and will give it to Madam later."

"Okay, you're interested."

Aunt Gui nodded in satisfaction, but she couldn't help but feel uneasy in her heart.

When Lin Yuan spoke to them, his tone was completely different from when he spoke to the young lady!

When facing them, Lin Yuan was like an expressionless wooden man, but in front of the young lady, not only was his facial expression very vivid, but even his eyes were brighter!

I wonder if he has any inappropriate thoughts about the young lady!

But he hasn't been with the lady for a few days!

And he is several years younger than the young lady!

That day, Li Shu slept until the next morning.

When I woke up, apart from feeling a little hungry, my complexion and spirits were quite good.

For this reason, Aunt Gui felt much more relieved.

Just as she finished her breakfast, Lin Yuan appeared in front of her like a ghost and reported, "My lady previously asked me to investigate whether those who saw you and Xie Yu fall into the water had any connection with Concubine Qi. I not only had people investigate before and after Concubine Qi hosted that banquet, but also before and after Concubine Qi entered the palace. I didn't find anyone who had close contact with Concubine Qi, but..."

Lin Yuan suddenly stopped talking in the middle of his words. Li Shu did not urge him, but just looked at him without blinking.

Then she inadvertently noticed from the corner of her eye that Lin Yuan's ears were very red.

Just as I was secretly wondering if it was particularly cold outside today, I heard him continue, "The people I sent out accidentally discovered that there is a secret behind Concubine Qi's life story."
