Pampering the outside room alone? I entered the East Palace to pass on the sick and weak prince

Chapter 444 Pregnancy

"Princess, the Taoist priest is here."

Hongxiu walked to the courtyard behind the East Palace and saluted Shen Ruoxi.

Shen Ruoxi nodded.

"Please come here."

Not long after, I saw a palace man walking over quickly, followed by a Taoist priest with an immortal style. He was wearing a green Taoist robe and holding a snow-white whisk in his hand.

The steps are light and the expression is profound.

After stepping forward, he bowed slightly.

"Pindao has met the Crown Princess."

"I heard that the Taoist priest has profound teachings. I would like to ask the Taoist priest to give me a divination."

"Since the Crown Princess has made a request, I should obey her orders. However, the secret must not be leaked. Please also ask the Crown Princess to keep away the irrelevant people."

Shen Ruoxi nodded and then motioned for the others to leave.

Only the peach leaves were left.

After everyone left, Shen Ruoxi said.

"Is that okay now?"

Bai Luo glanced around calmly, making sure there were no outsiders, and then relaxed.

"Damn, I've been pretending every day, my nerves are so tight that I'm about to collapse!"

He sat down on the stool in front of him, looking unhappy.

"That fox Murong Heng, when he first told you, he asked me to come over and leave as soon as he finished his work. It's been so long now and he still doesn't let me leave. He's so dishonest."

"There's no guarantee that someone will do this hard work for a rich man. It's a good thing for me, now I can do it for nothing!"

Bai Luo was so angry that his fake beard started to blow.

Shen Ruoxi slowly knocked on the stone table in front of her.

"Okay, I have business with you today."

"Are you finally letting me out of this hellish place?"

"Take my pulse."

Shen Ruoxi put her hand on the stone table.

Bai Luo looked confused, then looked solemn: "What kind of incurable disease do you have?"

"What are you talking about! Our princess is in very good health!"

Taoye couldn't help but rolled her eyes at him.

Bai Luo reached out his hand with some doubts and touched Shen Ruoxi's pulse.

His expression changed instantly.

"What are you..."

Shen Ruoxi took out her hand, met his surprised eyes, and showed a knowing smile.

"Really pregnant?"

"……Yes."

Hearing this, a glimmer of light flashed in Shen Ruoxi's eyes.

Doctors do not heal themselves.

Although she found out that she was pregnant, it was better to make sure.

Worried that the news would be revealed, he did not seek help from the imperial physician, but thought of Bai Luo.

Taoye's face was also full of disbelief

"Princess, are you pregnant with Your Highness?!"

There was a gentle look on Shen Ruoxi's beautiful face.

She put her hand on her still flat belly and ordered.

"This should be kept secret in advance, especially A-Heng. We cannot let him know about it."

"My slave understands!"

Hearing this, Bai Luo looked at her with a complicated expression. After a long while, he approached Shen Ruoxi with a solemn expression.

"Look at the pulse, it's only been about a month...what are you going to do?"

"Of course, we need to take good care of the baby."

Hearing this, Bai Luo took a deep breath and showed an expression of admiration.

He couldn't help but speak.

"Who is the child's biological father...?"

Bai Luo really couldn't suppress his inner curiosity: "Shen Ruoxi, can't you tell, you are quite talented!"

Shen Ruoxi paused for a moment, then showed a trace of doubt.

"You don't think I have a child with someone else behind Ah Heng's back, do you?"

"if not?"

"..."

Shen Ruoxi raised her fingers at him: "Come here and I'll tell you who it is."

Bai Luo leaned over and saw that she took out a jade pendant from nowhere and slapped her cheek hard.

"Sigh~"

Bai Luo covered his face and stared at her angrily.

"what are you doing!?"

"Are you awake now?" Shen Ruoxi rolled her eyes at him, shook her head and said, "If it doesn't belong to Aheng, who else could it be? I think you are crazy."

"But isn't it said that Murong Heng is sterile?"

Bai Luo looked puzzled: "Who spread this rumor? How could such a ruthless person like Murong Heng not find out the rumor monger and execute him?"

A trace of thought flashed in Shen Ruoxi's eyes.

Maybe he passed it on himself?

Bai Luo covered his face: "Then why did you just say not to let Murong Heng know? Isn't this misleading?"

"The situation is tense now. I don't want Aheng to be distracted, so please keep your mouth shut."

Shen Ruoxi looked a little solemn.

If Murong Heng knew that she was pregnant, she would definitely be affected.

She couldn't take his mind away at this moment.

After confirming her pregnancy, Shen Ruoxi gestured towards Bai Luo.

"I have nothing to do here. You can go back first."

Bai Luo chuckled twice.

Row.

He is the link between them as a couple.

At this moment, Leng Shuang hurriedly walked over and lowered his head towards her with a solemn expression.

"Princess, something serious has happened."

"what happened?"

"His Royal Highness just sent someone to bring news that the emperor is seriously ill and is paralyzed in bed. He is afraid that he will not survive."

Hearing this, Shen Ruoxi's heart sank slightly.

So suddenly?

If this news spreads, it will definitely cause chaos in the already uneven court situation.

Bai Luo was also shocked.

"Your Majesty is dead, so why should I stay here?"

Leng Shuang said.

"Master said that some old ministers have requested that the warlocks who made elixirs for the emperor be killed. You really can't pretend to be a Taoist priest anymore."

Bai Luo looked happy.

"Can I leave?"

"You will hide your identity and stay with the Crown Princess for the time being, and be responsible for protecting the Crown Princess."

Bai Luo:......

It’s not over yet! ?

"Your Majesty, it has been found."

In Prince Rui's Mansion, Murong Yao was feeding Leng Ruqing medicine when he suddenly saw the housekeeper hurried in with a solemn look on his face.

Leng Ruqing turned her head, a little confused.

"What was found?"

"Back to the princess, the servants carefully checked your food and clothing expenses and found out the clues. I am afraid your miscarriage was not an accident... but a man-made one!"

Leng Ruqing looked shocked.

Murong Yao also lowered his eyes.

"Have you found out who it is?"

"It was a suspicious candidate...but the servants didn't dare to take action, so they came to ask the prince for instructions."

The housekeeper whispered: "Yes, Princess Lin from the West Courtyard."

"Is she really such a poisonous woman?!"

Murong Yao placed the medicine bowl heavily on the table.

Leng Ruqing also opened her eyes wide.

"Lin Xiuyi!?"

The butler sighed.

"My servant found out that someone used incense that can make people slip on items that the princess often uses..."

"Princess Lin has become obsessed with perfume recently, and she asked the servant in charge of purchasing items for the West Courtyard, saying that Princess Lin had indeed purchased musk recently."

Leng Ruqing frowned.

"Where exactly did you find the musk?"

"Back to Princess, it's the tiger head hat you embroider every day." The housekeeper looked hesitant, "I don't know when someone put musk on it. You keep it next to you every day, so..."

Leng Ruqing's face turned pale.

"Princess, please look."

The butler asked someone to bring over the tiger hat.

As soon as she saw the hat, Leng Ruqing immediately reached out and picked it up, then put it between her nose and smelled it carefully.

You can definitely smell some light fragrance.

She held the hat, her eyes gradually turning red.

Murong Yao said sharply.

"Go and bring Lin Xiuyi to me!"
