Forcing me to become a concubine? Remarrying the Ninth Prince, she'll be pregnant all over the

The hibiscus-scented tent is warm, a beautiful spring night.

Afterwards, Lin Wantang, exhausted, wrapped herself in the blanket and shrank to the innermost part of the bed. She stopped looking at him and turned her back to him, almost burying her head in the blanket.

I felt a little embarrassed and a little annoyed.

He's too ruthless...

Several times she felt like she was about to die.

Wei Wujiu calmly got up, put on his outer robe, glanced at the back of her head with a smile, lifted the bed curtains, and called Jiang Fulu to bring hot water.

Once everything was prepared, he didn't let Jiang Fulu and the maids serve him. After they all left, he strolled back to the bedside and said, "Wash yourself, hmm?"

"Tomorrow, I'm too tired..." Lin Wantang's muffled voice was still very hoarse.

Wei Wujiu didn't say anything, but knelt down on the bed, reached out and pulled her into his arms. He turned to the side and brought her a bowl of ginseng and pear soup. He blew on a spoonful to cool it down and fed it to her: "Drink some to soothe your throat."

Lin Wantang simply accepted his service, but as she drank the refreshing and sweet ginseng and pear soup, she thought about how she would have to drink pear soup again tomorrow.

Although she didn't say those words, Wei Wujiu noticed her absent-minded gaze and said directly, "There's no need to drink that contraceptive soup anymore."

Lin Wantang was still drinking soup with a spoon in her mouth, not reacting for a moment. After a while, she suddenly froze, belatedly pushing away the soup bowl and sitting up: "How...how did you know?"

The two had been intimate before, and the next day she prepared a contraceptive soup for herself, specifically instructing Qiu Ying to secretly brew it. Even Jiang Fulu still doesn't know about this, so how did Wei Wujiu find out?

"Just a guess." Wei Wujiu raised an eyebrow, finished the remaining half bowl of soup in one gulp, then rubbed her hair as he stood up: "Listen to me, you don't need to drink anymore. If you get pregnant..."

He seemed to be thinking about something and didn't rush to continue.

Lin Wantang blinked in surprise: "You're pregnant...wouldn't that give us away? Or should I go out and hide for a while, give birth, and then bring the child back under the guise of adoption? But that would also easily arouse suspicion."

Wei Wujiu lowered his eyes and smiled: "What are you thinking about? But you guessed half right."

This is the last phase of his preparations for power struggles and revenge, barring any unforeseen circumstances... but in any case, he should seek a way out for her.

Thinking of this, he sat back down on the couch, put his arm around her shoulder and pulled her into his arms: "I'm not telling you to hide after you get pregnant, but that you shouldn't show your face in the near future."

Without arousing Lin Wantang's suspicion, he slowly and carefully explained: "Later I will have someone spread the word that we had another argument and quarrel, and I accidentally injured you because I was unhappy. So from now until New Year's Eve, you don't need to leave Chentingxuan. Just use the excuse of recuperating."

"Once New Year's Eve is over, on the third day of the Lunar New Year, all the princesses in the palace who have married will return to their parents' homes with their husbands. You can also take this opportunity to go back to the Grand Tutor's mansion and say that you are preparing for your wedding. It will be even more difficult to receive guests, so just stay at home."

"As for the wedding on the eighth day of the third month..."

Wei Wujiu didn't continue, as it was uncertain whether things would go smoothly until that day. However, he suppressed the thoughts in his eyes and only said, "The wedding will proceed as planned, but you will return to your parents' home three days after the wedding. After that, I will have someone send you to the estate in Huaizhou, which is also your mother's hometown. Later, I will also make arrangements for your younger siblings, as well as the master, to go and accompany you."

This series of arrangements was meticulous and rigorous.

It can be said that he put himself in Lin Wantang's shoes in every way, avoiding trouble and chaos for her, and also taking into account the Lin family.

But it's not hard to imagine that Wei Wujiu's deliberate attempt to get her away and then send her off was definitely part of a grand scheme.

Lin Wantang wanted to weather the storm with him, but she didn't know exactly what he wanted to do, and she didn't want to cause too much trouble, so she nodded subconsciously: "Okay, I'll do whatever my husband says."

"So obedient?" Wei Wujiu didn't expect her to agree so readily without asking any questions.

Lin Wantang smiled and said reproachfully, "Otherwise what? If I ask too many questions or talk back, you'll bully me again."

Wei Wujiu chuckled softly, "Who bullied you?" He said this, but kissed her again...

The next morning, during breakfast, Wei Wujiu, following the agreement he had made with her the night before, instructed Jiang Fulu: "Find a few people and let slip that last night Wan Tang and I had a quarrel, and that I hit her in anger. Then go and invite Physician Bai over. He'll know how to write the medical record. After that, let Wan Tang stay at Chentingxuan to 'recover her injuries'."

Jiang Fulu could tell at a glance that this was a fabrication, and nodded hesitantly.

Lin Wantang took a sip of porridge, swallowed the steamed bun in her mouth, and quickly added, "Don't say that the Governor hit me, just say that I hurt myself. I... cried, made a scene, and even threatened to hang myself. You guys can't stand me anymore."

Jiang Fulu struggled to suppress the upturned corners of his mouth, and said bitterly, "How can this be, Madam? You've already damaged your reputation by making up lies before, this..."

I don't care what others say.

Lin Wantang picked up a piece of braised beef, which was a bit tough and she couldn't chew it, so she put it into her porridge bowl and said, "The Governor never beats women, which is common knowledge in the court. If you're going to spread a lie, at least make it sound true, right?"

After she finished speaking, she looked down again and found that the piece of beef she had taken a bite out of in the bowl was gone.

Lin Wantang was slightly startled. Out of the corner of her eye, she saw Wei Wujiu had already swallowed the piece of meat. She said, "Jiang Fulu, how did the chef make this braised beef? It's too tough and chewy. Don't serve it like this again!"

Jiang Fulu bowed hurriedly: "Yes, this old servant will go and teach those cooks a lesson, and see if they dare to be disrespectful again."

Lin Wantang smiled, feeling warm and comforted. After finishing her meal and seeing Wei Wujiu off, she went to the study with nothing to do. She flipped through the ancient book fragments left by Li Jinzhi and also studied the rubbings copied from the Imperial Study.

Twin Dreams...

Could it be a type of symbiotic grass?

Lin Wantang vaguely remembered that when he was a child, his master was chatting casually and mentioned that there are many kinds of herbs in the world, and they can all be used to treat diseases. There are also many strange and unusual ones. Among them, the most interesting ones are companion plants.

As the name suggests, it does not grow from a single plant that is both poisonous and has an antidote, but rather from two plants connected by the same root. If one plant is pulled out, the other plant will wither and die, losing its ability to detoxify or become highly poisonous, even if it is not harvested.

If you want to use a symbiotic plant to detoxify and save a person, you must find two plants growing together in the same place, pick them at the same time, use the one that is more poisonous to prepare the medicine, and have the person being treated drink it. When the poison takes effect and is about to become fatal, you must seize the opportunity and drink the antidote very quickly, so that you can turn the danger into safety and be completely detoxified.

Lin Wantang pondered and recalled, then hurriedly picked up a pen to write a letter to Jiang Sijiu. He then went out to have someone deliver it quietly, but heard a noisy commotion.

"Come out! You dare to hit someone but you don't dare to come out?! Come out here, you princess!"
