The Lady's Code for Raising Her Husband

Chapter 45 There is something fishy everywhere

"Aunt, I don't want to have sex with my cousin." Bai Zhenzhen said in a low voice.

"What is fornication??" Concubine Bai was very angry when she heard her wording, "Why don't you want to?"

"Being hired as a wife and running as a concubine, with my status, if I mess with my cousin, I can only be his concubine." Bai Zhenzhen said, lowering his head. If she only wanted to be a concubine, she would have climbed into Ouyang Sheng's bed as early as when she was in Prince Qi's Mansion. Why bother now?

Concubine Bai just wanted to use her belly to give birth to a child, so she didn't care about that. But in order to stabilize Bai Zhenzhen, Concubine Bai still coaxed her: "With your aunt here, why don't you worry about not becoming Princess Qi?"

With Concubine Bai's words, Bai Zhenzhen felt reassured and finally nodded: "Aunt, I listen to you."

Concubine Bai smiled with satisfaction and handed a small pill through her sleeve: "Here, take this. Just swallow it without water." She spent a lot of money to buy this pill from a merchant in the Western Regions. The Shengzi Pill is said to have miraculous effects. Once taken, the baby is guaranteed to be born.

Bai Zhenzhen thought it was Hehuan Powder or something like that, so she took it and swallowed it, then asked in a low voice: "Aunt, have you given medicine to my cousin too?" This Hehuan Powder was useless to her alone.

Drugged? How could she use such low-level tactics? She had put in a lot of effort today. Concubine Bai nodded with a smile: "Don't worry, everything has been arranged. I will take you there now, your cousin is already waiting there. I will personally lead someone to guard the place outside, so that nothing will go wrong."

Doesn't that mean she can hear everything? Bai Zhenzhen's cheeks turned red, and she followed Concubine Bai shyly, heading inside.

It was still early, and almost all the guests who came to celebrate the birthday were in the garden, admiring the flowers and feeding the fish, making friends, getting close to each other, and it was very lively.

Xiaozhan accompanied Ye Yuxiao and introduced the situation to her "amnesia": "Look at those young ladies from aristocratic families who come into groups. They are not gathered together based on their likes and dislikes. They have to be friends with whom they can't be friends with." Whoever gets close to you has been told by the elders in the family..."

She understands this. The back house always reflects the changes in the situation between the DPRK and China. For example, the wives and daughters of political opponents will never become best friends. Ye Yuxiao observed carefully for a while and said to Xiao Zuan: "Go find King Qi. I have something important to tell him. It's about the expedition. Please ask him to find me in the room behind the flower wall."

The thing that has made Ouyang Sheng most anxious recently is to go on an expedition. As long as he uses this guise, he will definitely come.

Xiaozhan agreed, turned and left.

Ye Yuxiao walked around the rockery and was about to go back to the house, but was blocked by Su Sutong.

Su Sutong's eyes were red, as if she had just cried. She asked Ye Yuxiao sharply: "Did King Lu really ask you to cure your lameness?"

Ye Yuxiao looked up and saw Zhang Chengxuan standing on a rockery not far away with a cane under his arm. The two had obviously just met.

"Everything in the world is unpredictable, and everything is hard to say." For the sake of Crystal, Ye Yuxiao helped Zhang Chengxuan cover up this lie.

"You did it on purpose, didn't you? King Lu is lame, and your King Qi will have a chance." Su Sutong pinched the handkerchief with her long nails. If this was not Prince Pingnan's palace, she would use these nails to scratch On Ye Yuxiao's face, "Don't think I don't know, the emperor has already intended to let King Qi replace King Lu in the expedition!"

Ye Yuxiao was in a hurry to wait for Ouyang Sheng. He didn't have time to argue with her, so he simply pulled her arm: "Since you have a problem with me, let's argue in front of everyone."

The emperor's decree had not yet been issued, so how could this matter be brought up to the public? As expected, Su Sutong stopped pestering her, glared at her fiercely, and left.

Zhang Chengxuan walked off the rockery at some point and came to Ye Yuxiao, thanking him in a low voice.

He didn't seem to be in a very high mood, so Ye Yuxiao advised him: "Emotions cannot stand the test, and you will regret it."

Zhang Chengxuan didn't know whether he understood or not, so he left with a cane, his back looking quite forlorn.

Ye Yuxiao shook his head and walked along the winding garden path to the house behind the flower wall, waiting for Xiao Zuan to arrive with Ouyang Sheng.

After an unknown amount of time, the door to the room was suddenly knocked open, and a disheveled Ouyang Sheng barged in.

Why is he alone? Where is the editor who leads the way? Ye Yuxiao stood up, but found that something was wrong with Ouyang Sheng. The buttons on his collar were missing, the jade belt around his waist was loose and not fastened, and there was still a trace of woman's rouge on his cheeks.

"What's wrong with you?" Ye Yuxiao asked with a frown.

Only then did Ouyang Sheng realize that Ye Yuxiao was still in the room, and shouted sternly: "Stay away from me! No, get out of here!"

"Have you been drugged?" Ye Yuxiao looked at the rouge on his face and started to think about it. If we were in love with each other, he wouldn't have rushed here in a hurry.

"You are very proficient in this." Ouyang Sheng said sarcastically.

"I see that your eyes are clear. It doesn't look like you've been hit." Ye Yuxiao was busy with matters and was too lazy to argue with him. "Come here and I'll take your pulse."

Ouyang Sheng refused without thinking: "Don't take advantage of the opportunity to play tricks and get out of here!"

"Look, you haven't had any impulse towards me since you came in. It shows that you probably haven't been tricked." Ye Yuxiao said, taking out a small pillow and placing it on the table, gesturing for him to come sit down and check his pulse.

"That's because I get bored when I see you and have no interest even after taking medicine." Ouyang Sheng said this, but he still sat over and put his wrist on the small pillow. Because at this time, he himself also noticed something strange. He was clearly confused and unable to control himself just now, but now he was completely normal. If he had been drugged, the effects of the drug would not have dissipated so quickly.

Ye Yuxiao concentrated on checking the pulse and said: "Your pulse is normal and you have not been drugged."

Ouyang Sheng cried out: "This is impossible, I just clearly--"

"Obviously what? You obviously can't control yourself?" Ye Yuxiao pointed to the rouge on his face, "The prince saw the beauty, and he was distracted, but he thought he was drugged, right?"

When he sees Bai Zhenzhen, does he feel confused? ? Ouyang Sheng said angrily: "So what, don't say we are going to reconcile soon. Even if we don't reconcile, what can you do to me if I sleep with another woman?"

"Nothing." Ye Yuxiao picked up the teacup at hand and poured it over Ouyang Sheng.

"Ye Yuxiao, you-" Ouyang Sheng wiped the tea from his face, but before he finished shouting, he closed his eyes and fell down.

Damn it, I really thought she was jealous. She was just trying to pick a suitable moment to throw out the anesthetic. Otherwise, if he avoids it, all this effort will be in vain.

Without further ado, Ye Yuxiao quickly took out the syringe and took off Ouyang Sheng's clothes.

In the past few days, she used low-temperature distillation to make alcohol, which was just in time for Ouyang Sheng to use. The venom was slowly pumped into the syringe along the needle tube. Ye Yuxiao pulled the piston at a constant speed while observing the blood vessels of Ouyang Sheng's limbs to prevent the venom from flowing back.

The treatment went smoothly. Ye Yuxiao drained out the last drop of venom and put away the syringe. The needle hole left by the syringe was very small, and she used a sterile cotton ball to press it for a while to stop the bleeding.

Ouyang Sheng must not have thought that he is now a healthy person, right? Ye Yuxiao straightened up easily.

At this time, Bai Zhenzhen's call came from the other side of the flower wall: "Cousin! Cousin!"

Ouyang Sheng, who was unconscious on the bed, seemed to be inspired. His long eyelashes kept trembling, as if he was about to wake up.

How is this going? The dose of anesthetic is absolutely sufficient, and it is impossible to wake him up just by shouting a few times. Ye Yuxiao frowned and thought for a moment, then decisively opened the standing cabinet at the end of the bed and hid it inside. From Ouyang Sheng's disheveled appearance when he walked in, to how he thought he had been drugged even though he was fine, to how Bai Zhenzhen shouted twice before the anesthetic failed, there was something fishy everywhere. She wanted to see what was going on.
