Chapter 492: Childless Soup

Chapter 492: Childless Soup

“Are you crazy?”

The Eldest Prince stared at him in shock.

Although the Crown Prince had lost his power and the Empress had restrained herself, the Empress’s maternal family was not easy to deal with.

If not for the officials standing behind him, he would not have been able to go against the Empress.

Moreover, in his impression, although his third brother liked to pretend to be crazy, he was actually not so bold.

Why did he suddenly suggest for his mother to be the Empress?

“Brother, don’t have such a big reaction. I was just joking.”

Lu Zhou smiled and patted his shoulder. “Let’s go. It’s time to take a seat.”

The Eldest Prince glanced at Shangguan Dian, who was sitting beside Lu Zhou, and could not help but frown.

He had never seen this person before. Could he be his third brother’s good friend in the pugilistic world?

“Let’s go and drink.”

Lu Zhou stood up and raised his chin at Shangguan Dian, the King of Hades, and Lu Ying.

The three of them nodded and walked out.

Chu Hongzhong looked at the King of Hades’ and Lu Ying’s backs and said to Mdm Chu, “Wife, entertain the Eldest Prince and the Prime Minister with Mother first. I’ll be back soon.”

“Yes!”

Mdm Chu looked suspiciously at him. She wanted to ask a few questions, but with Matriarch Chu still around, she could only nod obediently.

“Oh right, Prime Minister Fu. Who’s the couple sitting beside Third Brother just now? Why do they look similar to Lord Chu?”

When the Eldest Prince saw the King of Hades’ and Lu Ying’s faces, he was also puzzled.

Prime Minister Fu smiled faintly and said, “It should be a coincidence.”

Of course, he knew who those two people were to Chu Sihan, but he could not tell the Eldest Prince.

—————

On the other hand, Lu Sheng was led into the room by Chu Sihan. It was calm inside, as if there was no one there.

However, she could clearly feel that there was someone else in the room besides the two of them.

“Leave first.”

Chu Sihan looked at the two servants standing at the side and spoke faintly.

“Yes!”

The two servants bowed and retreated.

Sensing that there was no one else in the room, Lu Sheng took off the wedding handkerchief.

Chu Sihan, who was about to help her remove the wedding handkerchief, was slightly stunned. Then, he chuckled.

He bent down and looked into her eyes. He raised his eyebrows and smiled. “Why are you in such a hurry to see me?”

Looking at his handsome face, Lu Sheng blushed. Thankfully, the blush on her face was heavy enough to cover up her embarrassment.

“I just feel that it’s too hot. The clothes are thick and heavy. This head accessory is so heavy that I’m going to have spinal problems.”

She touched the accessory on her head and complained helplessly.

After Chu Sihan chuckled, he hurriedly asked, “Why don’t I help you remove it?”

Lu Sheng nodded. “That would be great!”

“Call me Husband. After that, I’ll remove it for you.”

Other than gentleness, his gaze was also teasing.

“Husband.”

A low and gentle voice escaped her mouth, and Chu Sihan’s heart trembled.

He did not expect Lu Sheng to be so obedient.

“Can you remove it now?”

Seeing him stare at her blankly without saying anything, Lu Sheng raised an eyebrow at him.

Knock, knock.

At this moment, someone knocked on the door.

Qi Dongjing teased, “Brother Chu, it’s still dawn. There’s no hurry to consummate the marriage, right?”

“Yes!” Shi Yi smiled and said, “Brother Chu, the Third Prince and the Eldest Prince are still waiting for you to come out and give them a toast.”

“You guys go back first. I’ll be there soon.”

Chu Sihan shouted outside before reaching out to remove Lu Sheng’s phoenix crown.

Lu Sheng suddenly heaved a sigh of relief. She rubbed her scalp and looked sideways at him. “Hurry up and greet the guests. I’ll rest for a while.”

“Are you unwell?”

Seeing her expression, Chu Sihan hurriedly held her face and asked worriedly.

“No, maybe because I woke up too early today and didn’t sleep enough.”

“Then, you rest first. I’ll go out for a while and I’ll be back soon.”

Chu Sihan kissed her forehead before leaving.

Lu Sheng stared at his back, her vision blurry.

After the door closed, she hugged her head and moaned.

She did not know what had happened recently. She kept feeling dizzy, but only for a while.

Creak—

At this moment, the door was pushed open and a servant walked in with a bowl of soup.

“Young Madam, are you alright?”

Seeing Lu Sheng rubbing her temples, the servant hurriedly placed the soup on the table and asked.

“I’m fine!”

Lu Sheng looked up and forced a smile at the servant.

“It’s good that you’re fine!”

The servant heaved a sigh of relief. She picked up the soup on the table and passed it to Lu Sheng. “Lord asked me to bring you chicken soup so that you can fill your stomach first.”

Lu Sheng did not think too much at first. However, after receiving it, she realized that there was something wrong with the servant’s expression.

“You said that the Lord asked you to bring this to me? When did he ask you to do so?”

“Ah… just now. No, it was… this morning!”

The servant looked a bit anxious.

“Really?”

She smiled faintly and passed the chicken soup to the servant. “I won’t be drinking this soup. I’ll reward you with it.”

“No… No need. Lord made this for you. I… I don’t dare to drink it!”

Lu Sheng raised an eyebrow. “If the Lord asks, tell him that I rewarded you. Drink quickly.”

“Well… Thank you, Young Madam!”

The servant took the chicken soup and walked out.

“Wait,” Lu Sheng said lightly. “There’s no need to go out. You can drink here.”

The servant stopped in her tracks. Her hand that was holding the chicken soup kept trembling.

She suddenly turned around and knelt on the ground.

“Young Madam, please spare me!”

When the two servants outside heard the commotion, they ran in.

“What… What’s going on?”

The two of them looked at Lu Sheng and realized that her expression was indifferent. Her face was almost expressionless.

The duo looked at Xiao Cai on the ground and did not know what had happened.

“Spare you?”

Lu Sheng raised an eyebrow. “I only rewarded you with a bowl of soup. I didn’t want your life. Why did you ask for mercy?”

“This soup… Lord didn’t ask me to bring this soup over. It’s… it’s…”

Xiao Cai’s tears flowed uncontrollably and her body trembled.

“You’re one of Mdm’s men, right?” Lu Sheng asked faintly.

Xiao Cai lowered her head and did not speak.

Lu Sheng smiled faintly. “Shangguan Linger asked you to send this soup over?”

Xiao Cai suddenly looked up and stared at Lu Sheng in shock. She did not expect her to guess the mastermind.

Lu Sheng sneered. “It seems like I’ve guessed correctly. It seems like she hasn’t given up yet.”

This Shangguan Linger was really infatuated. She still did not give up at this point.

She stared at the bowl of soup and raised her eyebrows. “What… is in this soup?”

“It’s… it’s childless soup.”

When Su Wen and Su Shi heard that, they looked at Xiao Cai in shock. They did not expect her to do such a thing for Shangguan Linger.

When Lu Sheng heard that, she had an ‘as expected’ expression.

Su Wen glanced at Su Shi. Su Shi understood and retreated secretly.

Xiao Cai kept her head lowered. Her face was pale and she did not dare to speak.

Lu Sheng did not intend to let her up.

From the corner of her eye, she realized that Su Shi had gone out, but she did not say anything.

Su Wen did not dare to speak or leave.

The room fell silent.

After a while, Su Wen brought Mdm Chu, Matriarch Chu, and the rest over.

Mdm Chu let her nanny and Su Shi guard the door. She helped Matriarch Chu in.

When she saw the scene in front of her, Mdm Chu frowned unhappily.

Su Shi only said that something happened here, but did not say what it was.

Hence, when she saw Xiao Cai kneeling on the ground with a terrified expression, she thought that Lu Sheng was trying to put her in her place.

Hence, as soon as she entered, she said sarcastically, “You’ve just entered and you’re already so bad-tempered. What will happen in the future?”

Lu Sheng shifted her gaze from Xiao Cai to Mdm Chu. She looked at her mockingly and did not speak.

Mdm Chu was about to flare up when Matriarch Chu stopped her with a look. She snorted coldly and did not speak further.

Matriarch Chu did not even look at Xiao Cai. She smiled at Lu Sheng and said, “Lu Sheng, what happened?”

Lu Sheng smiled at her before looking at Xiao Cai and saying, “Explain yourself.”

Xiao Cai did not move, but her face had already turned from white to gray. She must have predicted her consequences.

Su Wen whispered into Matriarch Chu’s ear, causing her expression to change drastically.

She said to Nanny Kong, “Go and bring me Shangguan Linger.”

“Yes!”

Although Nanny Kong did not know what had happened, she knew that it was not a small matter seeing that the Matriarch so angry.

After Nanny Kong left, Matriarch Chu glanced coldly at Xiao Cai and said lightly, “You dare to harm my Chu family. You have quite the guts.”

Xiao Cai was so scared that she shuddered. The bowl in her hand fell to the ground and chicken soup scattered all over the ground.

She laid on the ground and crawled forward. She pulled Mdm Chu’s sleeve and said, “Mdm, save me. I… I really didn’t mean it!”

“What?”

Mdm Chu kicked her away, feeling puzzled.

She did not hear what Su Wen said just now, and did not know what Matriarch Chu was angry about.

“Hah—”

Matriarch Chu glanced at Mdm Chu and snorted coldly.

Mdm Chu frowned slightly, but did not dare to ask further.

After a while, Shangguan Linger came over with Nanny Kong.

Nanny Kong only said that the Matriarch was looking for her, but did not say why.

However, when she entered and saw the scene in front of her, her expression changed.

“Miss Shangguan, you asked me to bring this chicken soup over. I did as you asked. You have to save me!”

When Xiao Cai saw Shangguan Linger, she seemed to have seen her savior and crawled over quickly.

“What nonsense are you saying?”

Shangguan Linger took a few steps back and frowned at her. “I didn’t ask you to do such a thing.”

How could she admit it now? If she did, she would be finished.

Not to mention that she could not harm Lu Sheng, but she would not even have the chance to marry Chu Silin.

The current Shangguan family was no longer the same as before. She had to curry favor with the Chu Mansion.

“What… What happened?”

Ever since the previous incident, Mdm Chu’s attitude towards Shangguan Linger had changed.

Matriarch Chu said coldly, “She got Xiao Cai to bring childless soup to my granddaughter-in-law. What do you think happened?”

“What? Childless soup?” Mdm Chu was shocked.

Although she was not satisfied with Lu Sheng, it was not to the extent of drugging her.

Why did she not realize in the past that Shangguan Linger was so vicious?

“Auntie, I really didn’t do anything!”

Shangguan Linger glared at Xiao Cai and said innocently, “Xiao Cai, I have no feud with you. Why did you frame me?”

As she spoke, she stared coldly at Xiao Cai, her eyes filled with threat.

When she thought of how her family’s lives were still in Shangguan Linger’s hands, Xiao Cai’s expression changed slightly.

She bit her lip and smiled bitterly. “It’s me… I had feelings for the Lord, so I drugged Young Madam. It indeed has nothing to do with Miss Shangguan!”

Lu Sheng looked at Shangguan Linger coldly and did not speak.

Shangguan Linger’s expression softened and she said to Matriarch Chu and Mdm Chu, “Matriarch, Auntie, you have also heard it. This girl is slandering me.”

“She didn’t slander you. You did order her.”

The sudden voice made everyone in the room look out the door.

She saw Chu Silin standing outside the door and speaking expressionlessly.

Ever since Chu Silin was brought back last time, Lu Sheng had not seen him again.

It was unknown what Chu Hongqing did to him, but he looked much more mature than before.

He stood outside the door and did not intend to enter.

“Chu Silin, what do you mean?” When Shangguan Linger saw that it was Chu Silin, she was first surprised, then angry.

Chu Silin said lightly, “I’ve already found Xiao Cai’s family and released them.”

After returning from Lin Jiang Mansion, he thought a lot.

On careful thought, his father was right.

Without Chu Sihan, this family would not have today’s glory.

“Chu Silin, I’m your fiancée!”

Shangguan Linger relied on the fact that Chu Silin liked her and that he and Chu Sihan did not get along. Hence, she usually would not go behind his back when doing these things.

She did not expect Chu Silin to expose her.

“Not in the future.”

Chu Silin glanced at her indifferently and bowed to Matriarch Chu before leaving.

When Xiao Cai heard that her family had been released, she could not help but be elated.

However, after the joy, there was guilt. She kowtowed to Lu Sheng and sobbed. “I’m sorry, Young Madam. I did this because I had no choice. Please spare me this time!”

As she spoke, she even flicked out a banknote from her sleeve and handed it to Miss Shangguan. “This is the banknote Miss Shangguan gave me. I’ll return it to you now!”

Shangguan Linger stumbled back a few steps and shook her head. She mumbled, “No, it wasn’t me. I didn’t do it. I didn’t do it!”

“I didn’t expect a girl like you to be so vicious.”

Matriarch Chu looked at Nanny Kong and said, “Throw her out. Don’t let her enter my Chu Mansion again.”

“Wait!”

Lu Sheng stood up and said lightly, “Since Miss Shangguan likes to give others childless soup so much, I’ll give you a taste of it.”

She lowered her eyes and looked at Xiao Cai. “Is there any left in the kitchen?”

“Yes… Yes!” Xiao Cai nodded blankly.

“What do you want to do?”

Shangguan Linger’s eyes widened. She hugged her stomach and took a few steps back.

Lu Sheng ignored her and looked at Xiao Cai. “Go and get her a bowl. When she finishes drinking, I’ll spare you.”
