Mo Wansheng has been pregnant for more than a month.
Knowing that Mo Wansheng was in good health, everyone in the mansion felt relieved and happy. It won't be long before they have another young master.
Lu Tingyu, who had always been in the court, became more and more perfunctory. He hurried home after listening to the morning court absent-mindedly every day. He even rejected Chu Nanchen's warm invitation.
The Blood Shadow Pavilion has found out most of the facts. The group that assassinated Lu Tingyu and Mo Wansheng that day was most likely led by Xiao Henian. In addition, the Blood Shadow Pavilion also found out that Xiao Henian had raised a group of forces outside Shengjing City. Chu Nanchen's elimination of dissidents was largely done by them.
Hearing this, Lu Tingyu still had something to understand. Chu Nanchen had begun to tolerate him.
In this case, there was no need for him to maintain the illusory brotherhood with Chu Nanchen.
Although Lu Tingyu was somewhat disappointed with this result, it was reasonable to think about it. Since ancient times, which emperor was not alone, because they, the ministers and subordinates, had no qualifications to be brothers with him.
However, although he found out that Xiao Henian was responsible, Lu Tingyu did not take any further action. Even the group of forces outside Shengjing City, Lu Tingyu did not touch them at all.
He still understood the principle that a little impatience will ruin a big plan. Now Chu Nanchen already suspected that he had different thoughts. If the Blood Shadow Pavilion was involved at this time, Chu Nanchen would not be able to eat or sleep well and would concentrate on getting rid of this scourge.
After all, how can someone snore beside the bed? Not to mention that he was the King of Jing'an, whose identity was already sensitive.
After thinking everything through, Lu Tingyu began to let the Blood Shadow Pavilion secretly expand its power in the martial arts world, and at the same time, the Thousand Poison Sect would continue to infiltrate the court officials.
Both the Blood Shadow Pavilion and the Thousand Poison Sect were established by Lu Heng. The purpose of the former was to get rid of those who stood in his way, while the latter hid in the homes of court officials as doctors or concubines, aiming to get rid of them in one fell swoop when necessary.
After Lu Heng's death, Lu Tingyu took over these two forces, but because of his friendship with Chu Nanchen, he had never used these two forces. Until today, Lu Tingyu finally made up his mind.
Since the royal family could not tolerate their Lu family, he had to find a way out for himself.
…
Perhaps because Mo Wansheng's body was not as delicate as that of an ordinary boudoir girl, everything was normal since she woke up from fainting that day. She did not have morning sickness, no restlessness, and ate and drank well as usual, and occasionally went to the nearby streets for a short walk.
In this regard, Lu Tingyu was very happy, thinking that the little guy in Mo Wansheng's belly was sensible and knew to feel sorry for his mother at such a young age.
Because he was afraid that Chu Nanchen would do something secretly, Lu Tingyu kept the news of Mo Wansheng's pregnancy a secret. When she was pregnant for four months, Lu Tingyu didn't even let her go out of the house. He asked the servants to buy her whatever she wanted, for fear that someone with ulterior motives would notice and harm her.
But even with such caution, something happened when Mo Wansheng was five months pregnant.
That day at noon, Mo Wansheng took a nap after lunch as usual, but she suddenly felt severe pain in her abdomen while sleeping. Lu Tingyu lifted the quilt on her body and saw that the blood under her body had dyed the quilt red.
Lu Tingyu was shocked and quickly asked someone to invite the palace doctor.
After three or four hours of tossing and turning, she finally managed to save the baby.
After a detailed investigation, Lu Tingyu found that a very small amount of blood-activating substances had been put into Mo Wansheng's diet, and it had been going on for some days.
Because the amount of the drug was not large, it did not attract anyone's attention at first. It was not until several days of accumulation that the clues appeared.
Lu Tingyu suppressed the matter for the time being, but he knew in his heart that the news of Mo Wansheng's pregnancy had spread. While asking his confidants to secretly investigate the spy in his belly, he was thinking about how to completely put an end to this matter.
Finally, Lu Tingyu took back Luohui from Tan Ji.
Although Luohui is a very poisonous thing that will continue to erode the body and mind of the poisoned person, Tan Ji said that as long as the detoxification is timely, it will not cause too much damage, and it will not hurt the fetus in the belly.
Unexpectedly, Mo Wansheng was poisoned and comatose not long after Lu Tingyu's Luohui poison was administered.
Logically speaking, the incubation period of Luohui is extremely long, and there is no pain feeling. Mo Wansheng should not be like this.
It was not until he questioned Jing Ma that Lu Tingyu knew that Mo Wansheng had the same idea as him. Fearing that Lu Tingyu would not agree, he secretly poisoned himself.
The poison Mo Wansheng gave herself was Fusangyin, which was the body fluid of Fusang Gu in her body. Although it looked serious, as long as she slightly moved her mind, the poison could be instantly removed.
It was not until this time that Lu Tingyu knew that his innocent and naive little princess was actually a long-lost Gu master in southern Xinjiang.
Mo Wansheng was in a critical condition and woke up after being treated by the imperial physician in the palace. As for the two poisons in her body, a balance was temporarily formed in Mo Wansheng's body.
However, although the person woke up, the imperial physician still had a solemn look on his face, because Fusangyin was extremely overbearing and it was very likely to be transmitted to the fetus in Mo Wansheng's belly, causing the child to be born with deficiency.
Lu Tingyu looked distressed, and Mo Wansheng also had tears in her eyes. The imperial physician sighed and turned away.
Although he had good medical skills, he was really powerless against the poisonous drugs in southern Xinjiang.
Unexpectedly, just after the imperial doctor left, the miserable couple in the room suddenly changed their appearance. There was no doubt that they had acted out what they had just done.
Lu Tingyu still has lingering fears, "Shengsheng, I'm sorry, it's my fault. I shouldn't have consulted you before doing anything."
If he and Mo Wangsheng had explained this in advance, today's scene would not have happened.
Mo Wansheng held his hand and shook her head weakly, "I know that my husband doesn't want me to be tainted by those conspiracies, so he acted secretly."
Mo Wansheng also had the same intention in putting the blame for poisoning on Nanjiang. She wanted to keep the child, but she also didn't want to worry Lu Tingyu.
Lu Tingyu covered her with a quilt, his eyes filled with thoughts, "Shengsheng, maybe today we can get a blessing in disguise..."
Lu Tingyu told Chu Nanchen everything he was thinking. After listening to this, Mo Wansheng's face was full of astonishment, "Husband, are you saying that the person who wanted to harm our child before... was your Majesty?"
"Although I have no evidence, I am sure in my heart that the royal family will not allow us to give birth to a healthy legitimate son." When he said this, a bloodthirsty look flashed through Lu Tingyu's eyes, and he was very worried. Obviously, Chu Nanchen has touched his reverse scale.
"Then...what should we do?" Mo Wansheng only wanted to rely on fuso to support the child until the child was born smoothly. As for what happened next, she had not thought about it in detail.
Lu Tingyu squeezed Mo Wansheng's hand tightly, "Shengsheng, the Fusangyin poison in your body should be detoxified when you give birth. And the Luoyi poison in your body will be detoxified by me at that time." medicine."
Mo Wansheng nodded in agreement, and then heard Lu Tingyu speak again: "These days, you can stay in the house with peace of mind. I will ask the imperial doctor to come and check your pulse every half month. As long as you are constantly poisoned, he should not There is a next step.”
Lu Tingyu felt that what Chu Nanchen wanted to harm was only the child in Mo Wansheng's belly. As for Mo Wansheng himself, he would probably not take action.
Because rather than completely breaking up with himself, Chu Nanchen should be more willing to tie up all his energy on the lives of his wife and children. After all, at that time, he naturally had no intention to do other things.
In order to make the incident more realistic, Lu Tingyu emptied most of the Prince Jing'an Palace in anger that day. Except for a dozen of his confidants, the rest were all sent to the village in the countryside by Lu Tingyu, along with the two Yonghe people. The emperor spent a lot of effort to put in the dark chess together.
At the same time, news spread that Mo Wansheng was pregnant for a long time and that she was assassinated and almost poisoned to death. For a while, the court and the public were speculating on the identity of the poisoner. As expected, No one guessed what happened to Lu Tingyu and Mo Wansheng.
After all, it is everyone's consensus that a tiger's poison cannot eat its seeds, not to mention that Lu Tingyu and Mo Wansheng's deep love as a couple is obvious to all.
And Lu Tingyu had another purpose for doing this, so that Chu Nanchen would not dare to attack Mo Wansheng again due to the pressure of rumors.
…
When the rumors spread to the palace, it was already evening, and Chu Nanchen was sitting at the table and concentrating on correcting the memorial.

Knowing that Mo Wansheng almost died at the same time as the fetus in her belly, Chu Nanchen couldn't hide the look of shock on his face.
"Princess Jing'an is pregnant? Why hasn't the news reached the palace?"
As soon as he finished speaking, he thought back to the rumors that someone secretly poisoned Mo Wansheng with blood-activating drugs. What else did Chu Nanchen not understand? This was done secretly without telling him!
"Ha! I knew that the slave I picked up on the way was unreliable, and he actually made his own decisions. Damn it!"
Seeing Chu Nanchen's expression condensed, Wang Huai quickly poured him a cup of hot tea and handed it to him, "Your Majesty, please calm down. They are also thinking about your Majesty, but they just used the wrong method."
According to Emperor Yonghe's temperament, Mo Wansheng had to find ways to get rid of her pregnancy, and those two people were originally the pawns of Emperor Yonghe, so it was not surprising that they would do such a thing.
After all, Lu Heng had put in a lot of effort when Lu Tingyu was born.
Chu Nanchen smiled coldly, "For me? They are clearly holding me back!"
He had never given an order to prevent Mo Wansheng from having children!
But things have reached this point, and he can only bear the consequences.
Chu Nanchen rubbed his eyebrows a little irritably, "Are those two people exposed?"
Wang Huai pondered for a moment and shook his head, "I don't know. I only know that King Jing'an sent most of the servants away in anger. By the way, there is also the matter of Princess Jing'an's poisoning. I just went to ask Qi. The doctor said that it was more serious than what was rumored, and he almost died. Does Your Majesty want to investigate this matter further? "
Chu Nanchen tapped his fingers on the table and kept thinking in his mind. He was poisoned by two kinds of poison at the same time. This was obviously for Mo Wansheng's life. But besides the royal family, who else would be eyeing the Prince Jing'an's palace?
Suddenly, a familiar face flashed in Chu Nanchen's mind. Could it be her?
"Tell Xiao Henian that people will keep an eye on Duke Jiang's mansion these days."
Yes, the candidate Chu Nanchen suspected was Jiang Lingyi. After all, according to the news from Qingdai, Jiang Lingyi was completely resistant to Mo Wansheng's appearance.
However, Jiang Lingyi was in the palace and had many inconveniences. The only person who could do anything for her was Jiang Guogong's Mansion.
Jiang Heng is not a person who can be underestimated.
Wang Huai was stunned, "Your Majesty suspects the Queen?"
Chu Nanchen responded lightly, obviously not wanting to say more, "Let Qingdai keep a close eye on the movements of Fengyi Palace recently."
"Yes, I'll remember it."
Wang Huai was about to go out when he heard Chu Nanchen's voice coming from behind him again, "And the two useless chess pieces, let Xiao Henian find an opportunity to get rid of them as soon as possible."
Chu Nanchen thought that the two hidden chess pieces were very likely to expose his identity, but he didn't know that his order was the opportunity for him to be exposed.
Long before, Lu Tingyu had found out the two people, but after torture, he didn't get anything, so he had to let them go again and sent them to the country farm with the servants.
Lu Tingyu thought very clearly that if someone would take action against the two people, it would most likely be the real person behind the scenes.
It can be said that Lu Tingyu was playing the long game to catch a big fish, and after Chu Nanchen thought about it, he still took the bait.
…
Late at night, Jing'an Palace.
Lu Tingyu stayed in the study room all night and couldn't sleep.
One reason was because of Mo Wansheng, and the other was that if nothing unexpected happened, all the truth would be revealed tonight.
Shortly after the gong sounded outside the palace, Lu Tingyu's confidant hurried back to the palace and went straight to Lu Tingyu's study.
"Master, those two are dead."
Expected result.
"Can you see who did it?"
"It was the group that assassinated you and the princess before. I have arranged people outside their station and saw everything clearly."
He had guessed this a long time ago, but when the matter was really revealed, Lu Tingyu couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart.
He closed his eyes weakly, and when he opened them again, the hesitation and indecision inside had all dissipated, leaving only indifference and determination.
He and Chu Nanchen, in the end, became the next Lu Heng and Yonghe Emperor.
In the following days, Lu Tingyu's contribution to the court was directly reduced to zero. He also took a short vacation every three days and a long vacation every five days from time to time. The reason was very simple. He was worried about Mo Wansheng's physical discomfort.
Seeing this situation, Chu Nanchen was both relieved and worried.
Even he himself didn't know whether he was more looking forward to Mo Wansheng giving birth to the child smoothly, or hoping that the child would have congenital problems and be unable to expand the Jing'an Prince's Mansion.
After the morning court, Chu Nanchen went to Fengyi Palace.
Speaking of which, since he found out Chu Lingxiu's true identity, he hasn't been to Fengyi Palace for a long time, and even rarely set foot in the harem.
Compared with the intrigues among the concubines, Chu Nanchen obviously prefers to read more memorials.
When Chu Nanchen came over, Jiang Lingyi was leisurely tending flowers and plants in the yard, just like the former Queen Yuan.
However, compared with Queen Yuan, Jiang Lingyi was obviously much more restless.
Seeing Chu Nanchen, Jiang Lingyi's eyes flashed with impatience, but she still smiled and went forward, "Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you."
Chu Nanchen helped her up, "I haven't been here for a while. How is the Queen these days?"
Jiang Lingyi smiled and nodded, "Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty, everything is fine. By the way, I just came back from visiting Sister Shufei. Judging from her belly, it won't be long before Your Majesty can have another prince."
The Shufei mentioned by Jiang Lingyi is the former prince's concubine, Gu Qingqing.
"There are quite few heirs in the palace, and there is only Xiu'er so far. It's time to have another one."
Jiang Lingyi nodded generously and mentioned other concubines again, "Your Majesty is right. Concubine Xie has been in the palace for some time. I know that Your Majesty is busy with government affairs, but I still want to ask Your Majesty to take time to visit her."
Concubine Xie is Xie Yun, the legitimate daughter of Wu Liehou Mansion. She was originally going to marry into the East Palace with Gu Qingqing as a concubine, but because of her physical illness during that period, this matter was delayed. However, after delaying for several years, she finally entered the palace.
Looking at Jiang Lingyi who first mentioned Shufei and then Concubine Xie, Chu Nanchen subconsciously pursed his lips. Every time he talked to her, she always brought the topic to other concubines. On the surface, she looked like a virtuous queen who advised Chu Nanchen to treat everyone equally, but Chu Nanchen knew exactly why. She just didn't love him, and didn't like getting along with him, so she pushed him to other women again and again.
In addition, Chu Lingxiu and Mo Wansheng's affairs were piled up in his mind. Chu Nanchen, who had been patient for many years, finally got angry. "I just want to spend some time with the queen. Is the queen so unwilling?"
