The Self-cultivation of a Salted Fish Concubine

Chapter 144 Concubine Lian is pregnant

Despite the turmoil in the government and the country, Xie Run stayed in Chunshan Courtyard and raised his children peacefully.

Because of Prince Su's rebellion, everyone in the backyard of Prince Jing's mansion felt insecure.

Everyone was worried that the emperor would vent his anger on Prince Jing, and Prince Jing's mansion would also suffer.

Everyone in Prince Jing's mansion was also looking forward to Prince Jing's early return.

Xie Run knew the plot, and he also knew that King Jing was a male protagonist with an aura of luck, so he was not worried at all.

But she still wrote a few letters to say hello as usual.

At least let King Jing know that she is also thinking about him.

Xie Run thought he could take a break from his busy schedule and not get involved in anything.

Unexpectedly, Concubine Lu came to visit her and brought her some news that was neither big nor small.

"Concubine Lian seems to be pregnant."

Xie Run had just received the tiger-head hat embroidered by Concubine Lu for Taotao. He thought it was very delicate and cute, and was admiring it when he heard these words unexpectedly.

She paused, "This is a good thing, why didn't she mention it?"

Then he looked at Concubine Lu and said, "No news has come out from the mansion yet. How did you know?"

During this period, Concubine Lu occasionally visited the house, and the two of them became much more familiar with each other.

There's not so much beating around the bush when speaking.

Concubine Lu smiled and said, "The maids and concubines in the mansion all have their own channels of information."

"This servant heard this from Concubine Fang."

"This matter is a bit complicated."

When Xie Run heard this, he knew there was something to behold.

Although the daily life of raising children in the palace is peaceful, it is too dull.

She suddenly heard a different piece of news and felt fresh and curious.

"Then take your time. We have plenty of time anyway. You can have lunch at Chunshan Courtyard before leaving."

Concubine Lu smiled and said, "A piece of news in exchange for Sister Xie's lunch, that's a great profit for me."

After teasing for a bit, she asked, "Sister, do you know what Concubine Fang has been doing recently?"

Xie Run nodded: "How come you don't know?"

"She..." Xie Run was a little speechless for a moment.

Fang Yuaner has been tampering with Wan Linlang's food recently.

Of course, it’s not like Concubine Jiang stealing other people’s food.

She also doesn't like to do stupid things that can easily lead to gossip.

She just asked her maid to tamper with Wan Linlang's meal before she went to get it.

It's just a simple act of manipulation.

Touch it, take a look or something.

At first, Wan Linlang was worried that Fang Yuaner had poisoned the food. Even though the silver needles did not detect the poison, Wan Linlang still did not dare to eat it.

After being hungry for a few days, she couldn't stand it anymore and wanted to go to Xiachiyuan to find Fang Yuaner to argue.

Fang Yuaner casually said, "Poison? Do you think I'm a fool?"

"You think you're worthy enough to let my people poison you openly?!"

"It's more interesting to spit some saliva and throw some feces."

Wan Linlang was so frightened that her face changed color and she almost vomited.

Turn around and go find the princess, what can the princess do?

Those who called Fang Yuaner, please don’t hang around Wan Linlang’s dishes if you have nothing to do?

Then you should first produce evidence to prove that Concubine Fang has tampered with your food.

Wan Linlang was disgusted, but she couldn't say anything about her bitterness.

This kind of life lasted for a while, and Wan Linlang finally overcame her psychological barriers.

Suddenly they started throwing food away.

If you miss out on soup today and vegetables tomorrow, you won’t be able to have a good meal.

It was lost in the main kitchen, so there is no way to blame the main kitchen.

Wan Linlang couldn't stand it any longer and personally led people to deliver the meal.

I thought everything was finally going well, but I fell halfway, all the food was knocked over, and I almost fell into the lake.

Wan Linlang has now become a laughing stock in the backyard.

After all this, Wan Linlang lost more than ten pounds in just one month.

During this period, Xie Run relied entirely on Fang Yuaner and Wan Linlang to provide him with entertainment.

Concubine Lu: "The reason I brought this up is because Concubine Lian's pregnancy was first leaked from Concubine Wan's mouth."

"Recently, Concubine Lian was bullied by Concubine Jiang, and Concubine Wan was bullied by Concubine Fang. They probably felt sorry for each other and somehow ended up talking to each other."

When Xie Run heard this, he immediately tensed up.

Wan Linlang is like an indestructible cockroach.

Fang Yuaner has trampled her under her feet countless times, and she would be able to turn the tables if she was given just a chance.

However, looking at his actions in his previous life, he was very good at killing people with borrowed knives and using people as rafts so that he could sit back and make profits.

In her previous life, everyone who had been close to her eventually became a knife that she stabbed others or herself.

Wan Linlang never approaches useless people!

Xie Run took note of it in his mind, reminding himself to be more vigilant in the future.

Concubine Lu hesitated and said, "Concubine Wan is a gloomy and scheming person. Naturally, I dare not believe her words casually."

Although Concubine Lu may not be strong in other skills, she is quite good at judging people.

From the very beginning, she didn't dare to have any contact with Wan Linlang, and was always extremely wary of Wan Linlang.

Xie Run asked, "Could it be that Concubine Lian was unwell and Concubine Wan diagnosed her as pregnant?!"

Wan Linlang is a female doctor, which gives her many advantages.

Concubine Lu: "This is actually what I guessed."

But Xie Run was still puzzled: "If it was just a matter between Concubine Lian and Concubine Wan, then how did Concubine Fang know about it?"

Concubine Fang always bears traces of Concubine Yun.

Whenever people thought of her, they would think of Concubine Yun who died suddenly of illness, and they didn't like to associate with her.

Like Concubine Li, this woman lived a very lonely life.

Concubine Lu: "This is when I came to visit Concubine Fang and accidentally heard Concubine Fang's maid mention that Concubine Lian hasn't changed her clothes since she entered the mansion."

The speaker may not mean it, but the listener may take it seriously. When Concubine Lu paid attention, she heard other news.

"I later paid a special visit to Concubine Fang and learned that Concubine Wan had once visited Fangfei Pavilion under the pretext of visiting Princess Ruyi."

"I think Concubine Wan told Concubine Fang about Concubine Lian's pregnancy. But this is just my own guess, and it's not entirely accurate."

Concubine Lu is naturally thick-skinned and is not afraid of people like Concubine Fang who are lonely and widowed.

The first time she became suspicious, she ignored Concubine Fang's displeasure and shamelessly went a second time.

It is not known whether Concubine Yun had any last words before her death, or whether Prince Jing had other plans. Now, Princess Ruyi has been temporarily handed over to Concubine Fang to be raised, and she has been living in Fangfei Pavilion.

However, he did not mention the fact that it was registered under the name of Concubine Fang, and often asked the princess to take care of it.

Only then could Wan Linlang enter Concubine Fang's courtyard under the pretext of visiting Princess Ruyi.

Xie Run: "Concubine Fang and Concubine Lian live close to each other, so they can definitely detect any movement immediately."

Is it just Wan Linlang who is the concubine of Deng Fang?

Xie Run said: "Perhaps, it is really possible that Concubine Wan leaked it to Concubine Fang on purpose?"

Concubine Lu was stunned. "Although this is my guess, I can't understand why she told Concubine Fang this news?"

"The two have no kinship and have never interacted with each other. If Concubine Fang knew about this, would it be of any benefit to Concubine Wan?"

Concubine Lu could see that Concubine Fang was now only focused on raising Princess Ruyi and did not dare to interfere in any affairs of the mansion.

What kind of trouble could come from Concubine Wan looking for Concubine Fang?

Xie Run frowned, looking thoughtful. "Perhaps Wan Linlang is planning something, and Concubine Fang is part of it?"

Xie Run's intuition told him that Wan Linlang was going to start harming people again!
