Chapter 267: Check if She Is Pregnant

Leng Yan intentionally raised her face with tears and looked at Shi Junhe, calling pitifully, “My Lord.”

Shi Junhe was completely indifferent and didn’t even give Leng Yan a glance.

“If you are tired, have a rest on the couch. Don’t lie on the bed.” After Shi Junhe said that casually, he picked up the book he had brought and read it.

No matter how Leng Yan acted seductively in front of Shi Junhe, it was useless.

Leng Yan made all kinds of poses to pretend to be pitiful and lure Shi Junhe, but she couldn’t arouse him at all, which made her furious.

She could hardly keep the faint smile on her face.

Fortunately, Shi Junhe concentrated on reading the book and didn’t pay attention to her.

Leng Yan sat on the bed for quite a while and finally felt reluctant as she would waste a night.

Later, she got up from the bed and walked slowly to Shi Junhe. Then she picked up the wine pot on the table and poured a cup of wine, giving it to him.

Shi Junhe ignored her.

Leng Yan bowed to Shi Junhe and pretended to be pitiful again. “My Lord, I know that you love nobody except Hui, so I don’t hope that you would love me.

“But anyway, I am your concubine that the princess royal gave to you as a reward. Even if you don’t care for me, please have a drink with me for the sake of the princess royal. It is to give my only wedding all my life an end.

“Please do me a favor, My Lord.”

Tears fell from Leng Yan’s eyes and hit the back of her hand.

Her voice was pitiful and sincere. It seemed that she was forced and had no choice but to beg for mercy shamelessly.

Even though Shi Junhe didn’t like Leng Yan, seeing that a weak woman was full of tears in front of him, he couldn’t be heartless.

He gazed at Leng Yan for a long while and finally sighed, receiving the wine cup from her.

“Only this cup of wine,” Shi Junhe expressed indifferently and told Leng Yan that he wouldn’t do more.

Leng Yan nodded in a hurry and promised that she wouldn’t have too much extravagant hope.

Shi Junhe lowered his head and pondered for a moment, gently stroking the edge of the wine cup with his fingers, as if lost in thought. He didn’t notice that Leng Yan’s eyes rolled as his fingers moved and the expression on her face changed unpredictably.

She was complacent for a while and then nervous…

After a while, Shi Junhe seemed to wake up suddenly and picked up the wine cup without looking at Leng Yan.

When the wine cup was almost close to Shi Junhe’s lips, the room door was pushed open.

“Father, don’t drink it!”

Shi Qingxue’s voice was heard before she arrived.

It made Shi Junhe and Leng Yan look at the door at the same time.

They saw that Shi Qingxue pushed the room door and ran in hurriedly. She grabbed the wine cup from Shi Junhe and glared at Leng Yan coldly, roaring, “Father, you can’t drink this wine.”

Leng Yan was scared by Shi Qingxue’s sharp eyes and moved a big step backward. She shrank her neck with guilt and then thought that there was no evidence against her, so she instantly raised her head.

She looked at Shi Qingxue and questioned first, “Lady Qingxue, I know that you dislike me all the time, but this is the bridal chamber of His Lordship and me, and it is our wedding night. No matter how unreasonable you are, you shouldn’t make trouble here, right?”

Shi Qingxue snorted. “If you are not guilty, why would you be scared when I show up?”

“Lady Qingxue, what are you talking about? I am well-behaved and have never done anything evil. Now that I have married into the East House, I and your father will be of one mind in the future. How would I be like what you said?”

“Yes? How would you explain this wine?” Shi Qingxue put the wine cup in her hand in front of them.

When Leng Yan subconsciously reached out her hand and wanted to grab it, Shi Qingxue took it back.

She was not an idiot and wouldn’t impulsively help Leng Yan destroy the evidence at the crucial moment.

Shi Junhe still didn’t realize what on earth was going on. He looked at Shi Qingxue in doubt and asked, “Qingxue, what’s wrong with this wine?”

Before Shi Qingxue answered, Leng Yan interrupted in a hurry, “Nothing. It’s just the common tonic wine.”

“Tonic wine?” Shi Qingxue smiled meaningfully and slowly asked in reply, “What kind of tonic wine can make the drinker unconscious and have no idea what he is doing?”

Hearing that, Shi Junhe suddenly glanced at Leng Yan with his cold eyes.

He did that with great momentum.

Leng Yan explained in haste, “My Lord, please listen to my explanation. I just wanted to win your love, so I sent somebody to an alley and get the medicine to serve noblemen. It won’t harm your health but will only make you happy and seem to walk on clouds almost like a fairy.”

After saying that, she was afraid that Shi Junhe wouldn’t believe her, so she specially stressed, “If you still suspect me, you can ask Doctor Qin or even Doctor Shen Lady Qingxue is familiar with to check it. Then you will know if what I said is the truth.”

Leng Yan didn’t say it rashly, and she spoke by the card, as if it was true.

Even though Shi Junhe fully trusted his daughter, he felt doubtful involuntarily. He didn’t suspect that Shi Qingxue told a lie, but he was worried if she was cheated by somebody else.

However, Shi Qingxue was even calmer than Leng Yan who thought that she had won. Hearing Leng Yan’s words, Shi Qingxue didn’t retort but nodded with a smile. “I have this plan, too.”

Afterward, she turned around and spoke to Shi Baojing. “Baojing, please send somebody to call for Doctor Qin.”

After pondering for a moment, she was still worried and put a jade pendant in Shi Baojing’s hand, saying secretly, “Find a reliable servant to send this to King Rui’s mansion and ask Doctor Shen to come, too.”

Shi Baojing answered seriously and left quickly.

There were only three people with different expressions left in the room. Shi Junhe was still confused and then asked Shi Qingxue, “Qingxue, you came here in a rush not just for a cup of wine, right?”

In fact, it was needless to check it, and Shi Junhe believed that Leng Yan wouldn’t poison him.

After all, on this occasion, Leng Yan would do that only if she was crazy. Otherwise, after she took actions, she couldn’t escape.

So Shi Junhe believed that Leng Yan said she had merely added philter to the wine, and he didn’t think that it was necessary to ask a doctor to check it.

Shi Qingxue nodded at Shi Junhe and admitted it. “Father, you observed carefully. Since I arrived in such a hurry, of course, I came not just for a cup of wine.”

While speaking, she suddenly gazed at Leng Yan sharply and stated straightforwardly, “I suspect that your concubine Leng Yan is pregnant now.”

“What?”

“No!”

Shi Junhe and Leng Yan shouted almost at the same time.

One of them looked confused and surprised, and the other was in panic.

It happened that Shi Junhe paid attention to Shi Qingxue’s words and didn’t look at Leng Yan. Otherwise, Leng Yan disguised clumsily and everything would be revealed.

Shi Qingxue was satisfied with the two people’s reactions and enjoyed the scene for a while in a great mood. Then she explained unhurriedly, “I know that what I said is unbelievable, so I planned to ask both Doctor Qin and Doctor Shen to come. They are wise doctors and won’t misjudge.

“Am I right, Leng Yan?”

It was the first time for Shi Qingxue to call Leng Yan’s name so officially with no disdain, but it made the maid’s heart sink.

Leng Yan felt that she was like a frog which was targeted by a poisonous snake, and the other party could bite her to death at any time.

But Leng Yan finally reached this point with difficulty and could soon live a good life as a master, so how would she be willing to give it up?

She took a deep breath, and the panic on her face was concealed soon.

She looked calm and courageous with sufficient reasons.

Then she stared at Shi Qingxue and stated calmly, “Lady Qingxue, please speak with caution. I don’t have an honorable identity like you, but I am a maid of the princess royal anyway, and the marriage was granted by her. If I can say something boldly, I represent her face.

“Lady Qingxue, you said that you would check my body with no evidence. Although I am well-behaved and don’t fear it, you can’t bully me willfully.”

Leng Yan said that with certainty and reasons. Even though Shi Qingxue had known that the maid wouldn’t surrender easily, she was left speechless with wonder because Leng Yan was so shameless.

Leng Yan had the face to mention Mo Shujun unexpectedly.

But did she really think that Mo Shujun could do everything?

Since she knew Mo Shujun and Shi Juncai’s dirty plans, Shi Qingxue got the worst impression of her grandma, and she wouldn’t care whether she would harm the princess royal’s dignity after she did that.

“Humph! Do you think that you can escape from the disaster after you say that?” Shi Qingxue snorted and didn’t plan to listen to Leng Yan talking endlessly. She would check as soon as Shen Luo and the others came.

They would know if she was pregnant after checking.

Seeing that Shi Qingxue’s eyes were resolute, Leng Yan felt scared again.

She had never known that Shi Qingxue was so bold that she didn’t even take Mo Shujun seriously.

Leng Yan had to look at Shi Junhe for help who kept silent all the time. “My Lord, Lady Qingxue doesn’t care about the princess royal’s dignity, and don’t you care, either?

“If the news spreads, the outsiders may merely say that you suspect that I am immoral, but if they make it worse, they would comment on the princess royal’s family disciplines. Can you bear to see that?”

“Family disciplines?” Shi Qingxue coldly interrupted Leng Yan and pointed out with no mercy, “Are you family of my grandma? How can you mention the family disciplines? If we really find something, she just raises an ungrateful dog at most.

“Moreover, you have married into the East House now, so you have nothing to do with the Shou’an Hall. Even if outsiders gossip, they would comment on my father at most, and how would they blame my grandma?

“Stop confusing the public.”

Step by step, Shi Qingxue broke Leng Yan’s dream about taking Mo Shujun as a shield, and she was determined to expose this maid’s ugly face.

Leng Yan understood Shi Qingxue’s determination almost in an instant, so she felt desperate and sat on the floor in frustration.

However, Shi Junhe expressed in a deep voice at the moment, “Qingxue, you can’t do that.”

“What?”

The two girls looked at Shi Junhe at the same time.

Shi Qingxue looked puzzled, while Leng Yan’s eyes lit up.

Shi Junhe’s face fell and he shook his head at Qingxue, saying solemnly, “You can’t check her body now.”

“Why…”

Noticing Leng Yan’s face with the light of hope, Shi Qingxue shouted angrily at once.

Nevertheless, before she finished her words, she understood something while reading Shi Junhe’s gloomy face.

Even though she didn’t care about Mo Shujun, Shi Junhe wouldn’t totally ignore his mother as he didn’t know the truth.

What should she do?

Should she tell the truth directly or give it up?
