Chapter 468 Let nature take its course
Yu Xiuying came back to her senses from her memories and said, "Do you know what I mean?"
Lu Shian lowered his eyes: "I think I understand."
What my mother meant was that plans cannot keep up with changes, so we should just accept what has happened.
"Do you blame me for not letting you and Shen Cuo be together?"
Shen Cuo...
No mother would let her daughter associate with such a man. Although he is very capable, his instability is bound to be accompanied by danger, and he might be killed by someone at any time.
People like him never have a good ending on TV.
Lu Shian forced a smile: "I know mother is doing this for my own good."
I know it, but that doesn't stop me from keeping him deep in my heart.
"You are marrying the prince after all. At least you will have no worries about food and clothing. Love and affection will be worn away slowly as time goes by."
Thinking back to the beginning, she and Lu Jingxun had feelings for each other, otherwise she wouldn't have been willing to follow him and suffer so much. Who knew that he would suddenly become a prince, and their feelings for each other were no longer the same as before.
These past few days she had often thought that a prince really shouldn't have any feelings for a peasant woman.
Lu Shian smiled bitterly. If she told her mother, following the prince might be even worse.
It is not easy to sit on the dragon throne. There are countless people watching it openly and secretly. Not to mention that he is only the prince, even if he is the emperor, he may not be able to sit firmly.
Of course, Lu Shian didn’t say anything about this kind of treasonous behavior that would make Yu Xiuying worried.
Even if I told her, Yu Xiuying probably wouldn't believe it.
"You had other ideas before. I won't say whether they were right or wrong, but I think it's a good choice for you to stay. At least the prince cares about you. If this baby is a boy, your position will be unshakable."
Yu Xiuying’s biggest regret is that she was unable to give birth to a son.
If Shi'an and Xianchun both have sons, it would be a kind of comfort to her.
"Mom, you don't have to say anything. Boys and girls are all my children. I love them equally."
Yu Xiuying smiled: "Of course parents love their children, and mom is just saying that."
Yu Xiuying knew that Lu Shian hated the preference for boys over girls the most, so he would not say anything nonsense in front of her.
Although she wanted a boy, she did not treat her daughters badly.
Lu Shian chatted with Yu Xiuying for a while and felt much better. In fact, from the moment she found out she was pregnant, she already knew that it would be impossible for her to leave Anjing in this life.
The royal family would never allow the royal bloodline to be lost outside.
Yu Xiuying wanted to keep Lu Shian for dinner, but Lu Shian waved his hand and said, "No, I have something else to do in the mansion. I have to go back first."
Yu Xiuying didn't want to keep her, so she sent her to the door and asked someone to carefully help her into the carriage.
Seeing that Lu Shian was sitting steadily, Yu Xiuying did not forget to tell her what to eat and what not to eat.
Lu Shian couldn't help but frown after hearing this.
In the afternoon, Yongchang woke up as expected.
The first thing he said when he saw the prince was: "Prince, the Lu family and Prince Duan are in collusion."
"Lu family, Yongkang Marquis Mansion!"
Suddenly he thought of Lu Shian, who had just returned to the Marquis's Mansion. Li Hongting's eyes darkened, "Lu Shian, please don't let me down."
"Cheng An and I investigated the Lu family and found that it was not just the Lu family, but also Prince Duan and the Wu Kingdom. We knew that this matter involved a lot of people, so we sent pigeons to send letters and planned to investigate secretly. We didn't expect to be discovered by them. We fought with them for two days and one night, but we still couldn't escape. Cheng An almost died on the spot to save me."
Li Hongting said: "I did not receive the pigeon message. It seems that it was intercepted by someone. I just don't know whether it was intercepted in Huainan City or Anjing City..."
If it was in Anjing City, it means someone knows everything about the Prince's Mansion.
"I also found out one thing. After the third prince of Wu entered Dayuan, he secretly left the delegation. As for what he did, I was unable to find out."
"In order to intimidate them, the emperor ignored them and was reluctant to see them. Now that I think about it, maybe they also want to stay in the Great Abyss for a few more days."
So what are they going to do in Dayuan Kingdom?
There have been people secretly monitoring Huitong Hall, but no problems have been found so far.
This just shows the seriousness of the problem.
It's obvious that the third prince is not a simple person. If you say that he has been staying in Huitong Hall obediently and not coming out, Li Hongting will never believe it.
"Take good care of it."
After saying this, Li Hongting left the room.
"Has the concubine returned?"
"My Lord, he has returned, but he doesn't seem very happy."
Li Hongting had a cold face and strode towards the courtyard where Lu Shian lived.
Nanxing was explaining to the maids what Lu Shian needed to pay attention to in his daily diet.
Lu Shian sat on the chaise longue and ate walnuts.
Lu Shian doesn't like walnuts very much. After eating a few, he doesn't want to eat them anymore.
Nanxing disagreed: "Walnuts are good things. You should eat more, especially now that you are pregnant."
"Didn't you just eat?"
"I'm a doctor, you just eat what I tell you to."
"You are a doctor, but you can't force people to do things they don't like."
"I'm doing this for your own good, you know? People say that what you eat is what you need to replenish your body. Look at this walnut, what does it look like?"
Nanxing picked up a peeled walnut kernel and showed it to Lu Shian.
Lu Shian asked: "Like what?"
"It looks like a brain, like human brain matter. If you eat more of it, your child will be born smart."
Lu Shian chuckled, took the walnut from her hand and asked, "Hey, tell me, how do you know that the human brain is like this?"
"How do I know? I'm a doctor."
Lu Shian played with the walnut in his hand. The ancient people were really advanced. Some of their sayings seemed superstitious, but in fact they made sense.
Sure enough, the end of science is metaphysics.
When Li Hongting walked in, he saw two people talking about walnuts. The maids wanted to bow, but Li Hongting raised his hand to signal them to go down.
He slowly approached and listened to the conversation between the two.
"Hey, but I'm a good girl. My mother told me to be obedient. She told me to eat a lot of things, but she didn't let me eat walnuts. So I can't eat this walnut."
Nan Xing stood there jumping around with her fists clenched, pointing at her belly and saying, "Lu Shian, if it weren't for you and him, I really want to beat you up."
Lu Shian covered his mouth and chuckled, stuffing the walnut in his hand into his mouth: "Our Nanxing is the best, she is reluctant to hit me."
"Hmph, then remember to eat walnuts on time."
"Nanxing, can you tell now whether it is a boy or a girl?"
Nan Xing chuckled and said, "Maybe in a few days."
The implication is that it is possible.
Lu Shian suddenly became excited: "Can you really tell whether it's a boy or a girl by taking the pulse?"
