Chapter 261 The Secret of the Prime Minister's Residence
Shen Jingxuan saw through her thoughts and the corners of her lips gradually curled up.
She also thought that Ling Qiong and Ling Huan had good self-control and were not affected by Chun Tao.
Unexpectedly, without realizing it, the two of them were assimilated by Chuntao.
Seeing Ling Huan's expectant look, Shen Jingxuan had no choice but to ask, "Do you know what it's about?"
Ling Huan raised the corners of his lips for a rare moment: "Lu Jinxuan is pregnant."
Shen Jingxuan stood up suddenly, and seeing Ling Huan's half-smile, she slowly sat back in her chair.
It has been more than a month since the last palace banquet, so it is not surprising that Lu Jinxuan is pregnant.
But she and Xie Zihan only had sex that one time...
Thinking of Xie Lingxiao talking about Lu Zhenyu sneaking out of the house with Lu Jinxuan, Shen Jingxuan realized that she seemed to have overlooked something.
Lu Zhenyu and Lu Jinxuan had been secretly in contact with each other for a long time.
Lu Jinxuan is pregnant now, so it may not be Xie Zihan's child, but it could also be Lu Zhenyu's?
The Prime Minister's Mansion looks so glamorous on the surface, but I didn't expect such things to happen behind the scenes.
Shen Jingxuan couldn't help but praise the Prime Minister's Mansion for its good luck.
On one side are cousins, and on the other side are biological siblings. No matter whose child Lu Jinxuan is pregnant with, when she marries into the prince's mansion, she will be the emperor's eldest grandson.
The emperor's eldest grandson is of great significance. Even if the emperor no longer likes Xie Zihan, he will be lenient with his past actions because of the emperor's eldest grandson.
If the emperor keeps him by his side and educates him carefully, if Xie Zihan loses his chance to become emperor in the future, the emperor will still have his eldest grandson personally trained to inherit the throne.
No matter what the final outcome of the matter is, Beiling Guoxing Lu seems to be a sure thing.
Shen Jingxuan had to admire Lu Zhong and the Queen's careful planning.
They seemed to have planned everything and were just waiting for the day when the emperor passed away.
"Ah Xiao, what do you think?"
Now that this has happened, the Prime Minister's Office will certainly keep everything under wraps until Lu Jinxuan is pregnant.
only... ...
I wonder if Lu Jinxuan is as lucky as Lu Zhong and the Queen to give birth to a healthy child.
Xie Lingxiao said: "Now that Lu Jinxuan is about to marry into the Prince's Mansion, Lu Zhenyu only wants to take her away."
"If he knew that Lu Jinxuan was pregnant, he would be the happiest person, right?"
Ling Huan said: "Your Majesty is right. Ling Qiong and I were able to learn about this thanks to Lu Zhenyu."
After Lu Zhenyu and Lu Jinxuan were captured and brought back to the Prime Minister's Mansion, he became emotional and had a big quarrel with Lu Zhong in the yard.
Lu Jinxuan stood there with a pale face, as if everything happening before her had nothing to do with her.
The two people's voices became louder and louder, and Lu Jinxuan felt her head buzzing and her vision went dark.
After a while, she fainted.
If Lu Zhenyu hadn't held her hand and refused to let go, Lu Jinxuan would have fallen to the ground.
Lu Jinxuan's fainting made Lu Zhenyu and Lu Zhong panic.
Lu Zhong then trapped all the doctors in the city in his mansion to diagnose Lu Jinxuan's pulse.
Lu Zhenyu was originally pacing in the yard in a panic, just waiting for the doctors in the yard to take turns to feel Lu Jinxuan's pulse so that he could know her condition first.
It was not until the doctors in the room came out one by one that he finally stopped one and asked him.
After hearing the news, he was so surprised that he forgot that this was a secret of the Prime Minister's Mansion.
Lu Zhenyu jumped up high and shouted that he was going to be a father.
Ling Qiong, Ling Huan, and all the doctors in the yard were stunned.
After being stunned for a moment, the doctor lowered his head even more, as if he had not heard it.
When Lu Zhong heard Lu Zhenyu's loud cry, he hurriedly ordered his men to close the mansion door and lock up all the doctors inside.
This matter is of great importance and must not be leaked. If the news gets out, the Prime Minister's Mansion will be in danger!
Shen Jingxuan asked: "In this case, are those doctors still alive?"
Since they know the secrets of the Prime Minister's Mansion, Lu Zhong will not let them go easily.
After all, living people have the most variables, and only the dead can keep secrets.
Lu Zhong has been the prime minister for many years and understands this simple truth better than anyone else.
He would never let so many people take the evidence of the Prime Minister's Mansion out alive.
"It's useless even if Lu Zhong doesn't want to think about it anymore. He will eventually give them a warning and let them leave the house." Xie Lingxiao said.
At this moment in the Prime Minister's Mansion, just as Xie Lingxiao said, Lu Zhong could only let the person go.
He looked at the vermilion lacquered door in front of him that was constantly being knocked, and veins bulged on his forehead.
He knew without thinking too much that the people outside the mansion must be the doctors' families.
When they saw that their family members had not returned for a long time, they went to their homes to look for them.
In order to avoid making the matter worse, Lu Zhong had to ask the accountant to prepare a large amount of silver to silence the people.
After all the doctors received the money and made repeated guarantees, Lu Zhong ordered his men to open the door and let them go home.
Human life is of paramount importance. Shen Jingxuan only hopes that Lu Zhong will not be so conscienceless as to take so many lives.
"Ling Huan, was Lu Jinxuan awake when you came back?" Shen Jingxuan was most concerned about Lu Jinxuan.
I wonder how she will feel when she wakes up and finds out she is pregnant.
"Miss, she hadn't woken up when I left."
Whether Lu Jinxuan is awake or not is not that important to her.
She was just worried that Shen Jingxuan was anxiously waiting for news, so she hurried back home to tell her.
Shen Jingxuan said: "You and Ling Qiong continue to keep an eye on the Prime Minister's Mansion and report any news in time."
The news of Lu Zhenyu and Lu Jinxuan's escape was known to everyone in the city, and Xie Zihan must have known about it by now.
Not only is Lu Zhong busy dealing with matters at the mansion, he also has to communicate with the Queen and ask her to persuade Xie Zihan, right?
After all, Xie Zihan had no intention of marrying her in the first place, but now he has a reason to refuse.
And with Xie Zihan's temper, he would definitely not miss such a good opportunity.
Xie Lingxiao said: "I think Xie Zihan is already in the palace."
"Do you have any solution? Will you cancel the engagement?" Shen Jingxuan asked.
Xie Zihan wants to cancel the engagement, but Lu Zhong will definitely not agree. The Queen...
If it was for the Prime Minister's Mansion, the Queen and Lu Zhong would definitely agree.
But if it’s for Xie Zihan, I think the Queen will stand on Xie Zihan’s side, right?
"No, Xie Zihan and Lu Jinxuan will be married in three days."
Even if the Queen was moved by Xie Zihan's pleading and told the Emperor about this, the Emperor would certainly not agree.
If it were something else, Xie Zihan might be satisfied, but this was absolutely impossible.
The emperor has been on the throne for many years, and besides being suspicious, he values his own face the most.
How could Xie Zihan and the Queen persuade and fulfill his wish with just a few words after speaking in front of all the civil and military officials in the court?
Shen Jingxuan said: "Even if Lu Jinxuan successfully marries into the Crown Prince's Mansion, she will only be the second Shen Jinghuan."
The two were discussing matters concerning the Prime Minister's Mansion and the Crown Prince's Mansion. Before they finished their discussion, Ling Huan returned to the room once again.
"Why did you come back so soon?" Shen Jingxuan asked puzzled.
Ling Huan said, "Miss, Lu Jinxuan has woken up and is making a scene in the mansion right now."
Shen Jingxuan asked, "You will be married into the Crown Prince's Mansion in three days, why are you making such a fuss now?"
When Lu Jinxuan woke up, she must have known that she was pregnant, but she wouldn't make a scene in the house.
When Ling Huan heard Shen Jingxuan's question, his eyebrows instantly curved, and he looked like he was gloating.
