The scumbag wiped out my entire family, I was reborn to marry the villain prince

Chapter 12 Cunning Tease

Concubine Chun was stunned, "Why?"

He Juncheng changed his position on the chair, his eyes flickering slightly, "Mother, I have just obtained Ayu's forgiveness. If I marry a concubine now, I am afraid that there will be trouble again."

Upon hearing this reason, Concubine Chun breathed a sigh of relief.

"You don't have to worry about this. Mother has just spoken to Lu Qingyu. She agrees that you can marry Xu Lingxuan as your concubine."

He Juncheng's pupils shrank slightly, and a complex emotion lingered in his heart.

Logically speaking, he should be happy. After all, the Yongning Marquisate is now at its peak and enjoying the emperor's favor.

Being able to marry Xu Lingxuan would definitely be of great benefit to his path to succession.

However, Lu Qingyu's attitude made him feel indescribably uncomfortable.

The girl whose eyes were full of him no longer seemed to care about him as much as before.

If it were in the past, she would definitely strongly oppose him marrying a concubine.

But since she was caught cheating yesterday, she seemed like a different person. There seemed to be a layer of faint mist covering her body, making it hazy and unclear to see clearly.

Seeing that He Juncheng remained silent for a long time, Concubine Chun also noticed something.

A wise child is better than his mother.

Although he is an adopted child, he has been raised since he was a baby and is no different from a biological child.

Concubine Chun's face turned cold. "Cheng'er, don't forget what you did to Lu Qingyu, and don't forget why you married her. You must not have any feelings for her."

He Juncheng's body trembled slightly, and the light in his eyes dimmed.

Lu Yiner had been observing He Juncheng's expression. She found the right moment and gently hugged He Juncheng's waist.

"Acheng, you said you would always love Yin'er." Lu Yin'er's voice was as soft as water, with a hint of bewitching charm.

There were flashes of lightning and thunder, the endless clear sky was washed by dark clouds, and heavy rain poured down.

In Fengxiang Palace, Ye Huai and Tian Xing entered the inner hall one after another.

Tianxing put the things down and walked out, but his bright eyes looked at King Li and Lu Qingyu twice.

There seems to be something going on between Prince Li and his young lady.

Ye Huai was also very puzzled. Princess Jing was too surprised by her master's sudden approach. What was even stranger was that his master actually acquiesced.

With a lot of questions in his mind and a burning curiosity, Ye Huai left the inner hall with a blank face.

Lu Qingyu opened the mahogany box on the table and handed the small porcelain bottle inside to He Junxuan.

"Your Highness, this medicine can relieve your pain when the poison attacks you, and it can also suppress the spread of the toxin. As for the medicine that completely detoxifies you, Your Highness, you have to give me some more time."

He Junxuan raised his eyebrows slightly, took the small porcelain bottle, opened it and smelled it.

A faint fragrance wafts into my nostrils, lifting my spirits.

This is somewhat different from the relief medicine given to him by Doctor Ming from Yaowang Valley. Doctor Ming's medicine is bitter.

Looking at the porcelain bottle in his hand, He Junxuan spoke calmly, his voice as clear as ice, "I wonder if Princess Jing can prove that there is no poison in it."

Lu Qingyu smiled, took the porcelain bottle directly from He Junxuan's hand, and poured a few drops of medicine into his mouth.

Looking at the porcelain bottle that was handed back to him, a faint light flashed across He Junxuan's dark eyes.

Just now, Lu Qingyu's lips had close contact with the mouth of the bottle.

He Junxuan raised his eyes, and met Lu Qingyu's slightly cunning eyes.

The girl smiled with her lips curved, her dimples shallow, pure and holy. She looked at him with her clear eyes without saying a word.

He Junxuan narrowed his eyes slightly, said nothing more, and drank the medicine in the porcelain bottle in one gulp.

"Thank you very much. Next, I would like to trouble Princess Jing to treat the Royal Grandmother."

Lu Qingyu opened the medical box and took out the medicine-decocting tools, as well as several bottles and jars.

On the table were four or five kinds of herbs that had just been sent from the Imperial Hospital. Lu Qingyu lit the fire and put the herbs one by one into the small frying pan to simmer.

The Queen Mother gradually woke up from her deep sleep. She slowly turned her head and saw Lu Qingyu decocting medicinal herbs.

The Queen Mother's pupils dilated slightly, and her eyes were fixed on the golden nanmu medical box.

In a moment, those slightly cloudy eyes became moist, and a tear slid down from the corner of the eye.

The Queen Mother looked quietly at Lu Qingyu's serious profile, and her best friend when she was waiting to be married gradually emerged in her mind.

She is bright and pretty, with a fluttering red dress, and has superb medical skills.

It's a pity that fate was against her and she was sent to the palace by her family, while her best friend married the old Duke Zhenguo.

Decades passed in a flash, and they could no longer see each other and could only communicate secretly through letters.

She even failed to attend her best friend's funeral.

Although she was the queen mother of a country, she felt like she was imprisoned.

The palace is really a cage that eats people without leaving any bones.

The Queen Mother slowly closed her eyes.

A'yun... I never thought that in the end, my life would be saved by your granddaughter.

Lu Qingyu didn't notice the Queen Mother's look, all her energy was focused on decocting the medicine.

The poison that the Queen Mother was poisoned with was not actually difficult to cure, but it would only be fatal if it accumulated over time. This shows that the person who drugged her was very cautious, or it can be said that the murderer did not have enough confidence.

After about an incense stick of time, Lu Qingyu completed the process of decocting the medicine, and a white jade porcelain bottle appeared on the table.

"Princess Jing, thank you for your hard work." The Queen Mother's voice sounded at the right time. Although she was still weak, she was much better than the dying state a few hours ago.

Lu Qingyu and He Junxuan immediately walked to the Queen Mother's bed and knelt on the cushions, one on the left and one on the right.

Lu Qingyu placed three fingers on the Queen Mother's wrist, "Grandmother, how do you feel——"

Suddenly, Nanny Yu's anxious voice came from outside the door.

"Empress Dowager, the Queen heard that you are getting better, and now she is waiting in the main hall with the ladies from other palaces."

Nanny Yu was very angry. The Queen Mother had just gotten better and these people came to disturb her. She had no idea what their intentions were.

She really wanted the queen and the concubines to go back to their own homes and find their own...

But she was just a nanny and didn't have that right.

The Queen Mother raised her eyelids slightly, a sharp light flashed in her eyes, and then turned into silence.

"Let them in." The Queen Mother's tone was gentle, but without a trace of warmth.

A strange light flashed across Lu Qingyu's eyes. It seemed that the relationship between the Queen Mother and the Empress and concubines was not very good.

Soon, the queen, dressed elegantly and luxuriously, led a group of concubines into the inner hall.

Lu Qingyu glanced around and didn't see Concubine Chun.

The Queen's sharp gaze briefly rested on Lu Qingyu, then moved to the Queen Mother.

"I am very happy to hear that mother's condition has improved, but I am also very worried. That is why I brought you sisters to visit mother." The queen said as she knelt down.

The concubines behind also knelt down.

"Everyone, get up. It's rare for the Queen to be so filial that she even comes here in person on this rainy day with thunder and lightning." The Queen Mother half leaned on the cushion, her expression gentle and her tone calm.

The Queen stood up and looked at Lu Qingyu with her bright eyes. "I heard that the Queen Mother's condition has improved this time. Is it the credit of Princess Jing?"

Lu Qingyu lowered his eyebrows and eyes, looking respectful and docile, and did not seem to be aggressive at all.

But she was thinking about one thing in her heart.
