Chapter 474 Maybe We Will Be Friends
After hearing what Li Hongting said, Lu Shian felt a little embarrassed.
It was rare to see Lu Shian act like a girl in this way. Li Hongting felt even happier when he saw her like this.
Li Hongting climbed onto the bed and held Lu Shian in his arms: "You are wearing thin clothes, lie down quickly."
Two people were lying on the bed, covered with quilts, but neither of them could fall asleep.
"Shi'an, tell me your childhood story. I want to know."
Lu Shian moved her neck. She was not used to resting her head on Li Hongting's arm like this.
"Well, there's really nothing much to say about my childhood. Life was hard when I was a kid, and I was very timid back then. Fortunately, my elder sister protected me."
"So you're protecting your eldest sister too?"
"Well, my eldest sister has sacrificed a lot for this family."
"I feel that you have paid more."
Lu Shian laughed: "I didn't give anything. It was always my eldest sister who protected this family. She even ended up being sold. Fortunately, God has a good heart and allowed us mother and daughter to reunite."
Lu Shian didn't really want to talk about her childhood with Li Hongting. The reason was simple: her childhood was not hers. Although she had the memory, she was still a little wary of Li Hongting.
Lu Shian's body was stiff and he was beginning to feel a little tired.
She changed the subject and asked, "By the way, Prince, what were you like when you were little? What games did you play when you were little?"
"game?"
“Horse riding, archery, and kite flying.”
"Oh……"
Nothing special either.
"But my favorite is Cuju."
"Cuju?" Lu Shian became excited when talking about this. She was not that fond of football, but the people who played football were all too handsome. Every time during the World Cup, when others watched the game, the people in her dormitory would watch who was more handsome.
"Why? Shi'an likes it too?"
"No, just curious."
"Then I'll take you out to play some other day."
Lu Shian touched her belly. There was a ball in her belly. How could she play with it?
She herself didn't realize that although she didn't want to marry Li Hongting and although she was half-hearted, she had never thought of hurting the child.
Even looking forward to her arrival.
In another courtyard of the Prince's Mansion, Jing Youran learned that Li Hongting had gone to Lu Shian, and she was so angry that her teeth were about to break.
"Bitch, I really underestimated you."
Ye Lian'er walked in from outside with a stack of clothes in her hand. She entered the house, put the clothes into the closet, and then came to Jing Youran.
"Princess, I just heard a piece of news about Lu Shian."
"Oh? Tell me."
"Lu Shian is pregnant."
"What, how is this possible?"
"It's true."
Jing Youran suddenly realized: "No wonder the Queen Mother and the Imperial Concubine gave her so many gifts, and even the people in the palace treated her with special respect. It turns out that she is pregnant."
"How long has she been in the mansion? She already has it."
"It only shows that Lu Shian is very skilled."
Jing Youran said viciously: "Maybe she had slept with a man before she entered the house. It is still unknown whether this child is the prince's."
Ye Lian'er said, "Princess, you can't say such things unless we have evidence."
"I know." Jing Youran was not completely stupid. Now in the Prince's Mansion, she was isolated and helpless. The only person she could rely on was herself.
Ye Lian'er thought for a moment and said, "She is a concubine, and she got pregnant right after entering the palace. I'm sure some people must feel bad about it."
Jing Youran looked up at Ye Lian'er, and then she smiled.
"Then let's go sit with the Crown Princess tomorrow. Who knows, maybe she and I can have a chat."
Lu Shian slept until dawn. She stretched and called out, "Lu'er."
The maid waiting outside came in immediately: "Concubine An, Lu'er hasn't come back yet."
Lu Shi'an was stunned. She had been a little sleepy these days, and coupled with the matters at the Marquis' Mansion, she had forgotten about Lu'er. She secretly calculated and found that Lu'er had been gone for more than ten days.
"Have you been gone this long?"
It shouldn't take that long, but for some reason, Lu Shian immediately thought of Cheng'an and Yongchang.
The current situation in Dayuan Kingdom seems calm on the surface, but she always feels that something big is about to happen.
"No, I can't wait any longer."
Lu Shian got up and ran to the front yard without even bothering to eat.
The guards and followers cannot easily step into the backyard, so Shen Cuo will naturally not appear in the backyard.
At this time, Li Hongting had already entered the palace. She asked the housekeeper to find Shen Cuo.
Lu Shian briefly explained the situation: "I hope you can help me make a trip. I want to know if Lu'er is safe."
"Concubine An ordered, and I dare not disobey."
The butler was right next to them, and the two of them were like strangers.
Lu Shian said to him: "Then I'll trouble you."
Something happened in the Marquis' Mansion, but it did not affect Lu Shian's status in the Prince's Mansion. On the contrary, seeing that the Prince favored her so much, the servants were also cautious when treating Lu Shian.
Lu Shian has a carefree temper and will not punish his servants, but Li Hongting will.
Qin Jingzhi had just finished breakfast and picked up a book to read. When he was reading with great interest, Jing Youran came.
"Sister Crown Princess, you are in a good mood. You still have the heart to read a book here?"
Qin Jingzhi looked up from the book and saw Jing Youran standing in front of him, smiling at him.
She put away the book in her hand and asked, "How come Princess has time to come to my place?"
"Look at what you said, sister. Why can't I come? Besides, there are only three of us in this mansion. I don't get along with Lu Shian. I want to relax and talk to someone, so naturally I have to come to see you, sister."
Qin Jingzhi handed the book in his hand to Jin'er beside him: "Well, it seems to be like this."
Seeing that Qin Jingzhi followed his words, a smile suddenly broke out on his face.
Ye Lian'er moved a chair over from the side, and Jing Youran sat down next to Qin Jingzhi.
"My sister and she entered the mansion together, right?"
"I don't know what the prince is thinking. My sister is far better than Lu Shian in terms of appearance and family background, but the prince is so attentive to her."
Qin Jingzhi had already guessed the purpose of Jing Youran's visit. She listened with a smile but did not say a word.
"If you ask me, Lu Shian just doesn't know the rules. How can she get pregnant before the mistress of the house gives birth? This is simply showing her disregard for you."
"I heard what the servants said yesterday, and I was so angry."
Jing Youran said a lot, but when she found that Qin Jingzhi didn't say anything, she paused and made an angry expression.
"I am getting angrier the more I talk. No, I am going to go find her and ask her how this will affect your dignity, Crown Princess."
As she spoke, she stood up and walked out, and Qin Jingzhi leaned back slightly.
An expression that said, "Let me see how you act."
As expected, seeing that Qin Jingzhi didn't even pull him, Jing Youran could only stand there with a dry smile.
"Won't the Crown Princess stop me?"
"The princess is so righteous, how can I stop her?"
"So Sister Crown Princess also thinks Lu Shian deserves to die, right?"
The smile on Qin Jingzhi's face died a little bit. She looked up at Jing Youran and said, "The princess keeps calling you sister, so I can't just agree to it. Today, I would like to give you a piece of advice. It's better not to be so righteous since you are new here."
Lu Shian is the prince's favorite. The prince likes her, so she can rely on him. As long as the prince is willing, she can do whatever she wants.
There are still many days ahead, princess, why don't you be more open-minded and leave yourself a way out. "
Jing Youran didn't expect Qin Jingzhi to lecture her. She stood there and simply didn't want to believe her ears.
"I'm doing this for your own good. You're the Crown Princess. If she gives birth to a legitimate son, she will have to suppress you."
Qin Jingzhi sneered: "I think the princess cares more about it than I do."
"I just can't stand her bullying others."
"You need to have the ability to bully others by taking advantage of your power."
Seeing that Qin Jingzhi was not moved at all, Jing Youran could only stamp her feet in hatred and said, "Since the Crown Princess is willing to let others suppress her, then I will pretend that I have never been here."
After saying that, he turned around and walked away, twisting his waist.
After Jing Youran left, Qin Jingzhi called Jin'er over and said, "Go check on the maid next to her."
"Yes!"
She remembered that Lu Shian said that this maid was a cousin of the Ye family.
As for what happened between them that turned the two into strangers, Lu Shian never said anything, but it was definitely problematic for Ye Lian'er to enter the Prince's Mansion.
Qin Mansion.
Qin Qiubai and Lu Xianchun haven't spoken to each other since the incident.
Even if she accidentally touched him, Lu Xianchun would turn around and leave. In short, in her eyes, Qin Qiubai was a transparent person.
Qin Qiubai became even angrier when he saw Lu Xianchun like this. He went to Liu Rulan every day and spoiled her to death. Liu Rulan had a flamboyant personality to begin with, and now she was even more arrogant!
The food, clothing and other expenses are extremely extravagant. It’s not that the Qin family can’t afford it, but their Qin family has always been low-key and introverted. Now that Liu Rulan has appeared, it’s naturally abrupt!
Early in the morning, Lu Xianchun came to pay his respects to Mrs. Qin. Mrs. Qin liked Lu Xianchun very much!
After paying her respects to Madam Qin, Lu Xianchun did not dare to delay, for she was afraid that Zhinian would not see her when he woke up!
Who knew that they would meet Liu Rulan on a narrow road!
Seeing Lu Xianchun just coming out of Mrs. Qin's yard, she smiled contemptuously!
"You were born to serve others. Even if you become a concubine, you still have to serve others!"
After hearing this, You'er was so angry that she wanted to go up and argue with her, but Lu Xianchun stopped her!
"Let her say whatever she wants, let's go our way!"
Lu Xianchun wanted to leave, but Liu Rulan would not let her go easily. If Lu Xianchun went to the left, she would go to the left. If Lu Xianchun went to the right, she would go to the right. After going back and forth like this several times, Lu Xianchun knew that he could not escape this incident today!
"Liu Rulan, do you think this is interesting?"
Liu Rulan raised her chin and said, "Of course it's interesting. I think it's very interesting!"
Lu Xianchun sneered: "If you think it's interesting, that's your business. I have other things to do and I don't want to play this boring game with you!"
She raised her foot and walked to the right, and Liu Rulan moved to the right quickly!
"Don't be impatient, Lu Xianchun, weren't you quite arrogant? Why are you so honest now?"
"Ah, I remember now. The Marquis' Mansion is about to be finished! You will be finished too!"
Lu Xianchun glared at her fiercely!
When Liu Rulan saw that she was angry, she was in a very good mood!
"Are you angry? You can't stand this? Haha, do you know how serious a crime it is to mine gold illegally?"
"Let me tell you, Lu Xianchun, your mansion is almost finished, and so are you!"
Lu Xianchun made a mocking remark!
"Don't forget that the Yongkang Marquis's Mansion and the Duke's Mansion are very attentive. Do you think that if the Marquis's Mansion suffers, your Duke's Mansion can escape?"
"A daughter who is married off is like spilled water. She is no longer a member of our mansion!"
Lu Xianchun looked at her jokingly and spread his hands: "So you knew it!"
"You!" Liu Rulan was blocked in the mouth. She was so angry that she didn't know what to say!
Lu Xianchun rolled his eyes at her and said, "Think before you speak next time!"
All clans intermarry to make each other better. If one family is not doing well, the family it is marrying into will definitely be affected.
For example, this time when Lu Jinghui secretly mined gold, not only the Marquis' Mansion, but also the families that were related to the Marquis' Mansion were trembling in fear, fearing that they would be implicated.
When she first learned about what happened in the Marquis' Mansion, she rushed there in a hurry.
At that time, the Marquis' Mansion was heavily guarded, and she couldn't get in even if she wanted to.
Knowing that he would not be able to see his mother, Lu Xianchun turned around and went to look for Lu Shian.
Lu Shian is pregnant now, and she is really happy for her.
Lu Shian told her not to worry and just wait at home.
Lu Xianchun knew that Lu Shi'an might not care about the life and death of the Marquis's family, but he would definitely not ignore their mother, so he forced himself to suppress his annoyance.
In fact, she also wanted to do something, but after thinking about it again and again, she found that she could do nothing.
Yes, what can she, a woman living in the inner palace, do? It’s good enough even if she doesn’t cause any trouble.
Thinking about her current embarrassing position in the Qin Mansion, she smiled bitterly.
Looking back now, her reaction when she fell ill was a bit exaggerated.
It's no wonder that she was so exaggerated. Zi Yuan's previous experience really scared her, so when Zhinian encountered danger, she was particularly aggressive.
But now that things have come to this, she no longer has the courage to bow her head.
Anyway, let it be. She thinks this is enough to be able to stay with Zhinian and watch him grow up.
When Lu Xianchun returned to his yard, Zhinian had already woken up. Seeing his mother come back, he happily ran over and hugged Lu Xianchun's thighs.
"Mom, where have you been?"
"Mom has gone to grandma's place. Has Zhinian eaten yet?"
"Not yet. Zhinian and Daddy are waiting for Mom to come back and eat together."
Lu Xianchun was startled. She looked over and saw Qin Qiubai standing in the dining room.
"Mom, let's go. I'm almost starving."
Lu Xianchun was dragged away by Zhinian.
Qin Qiubai had a look of indifference on his face. When he saw Lu Xianchun coming, he even turned away with disgust.
"Dad, Mom is here, let's go eat."
When he was young, his two little hands were holding his father and mother respectively, and his mouth was almost grinning from ear to ear.
"Hehe, it's time to eat, it's time to eat..."
The two adults looked at each other at the same time, and when their eyes met, they quickly looked away.
Zhinian sat between the two of them, very happy: "Dad, please pick some food for me."
