Yinzhen did suspect Fu Jin.

This is because she is one of the two suspects in the mansion, the other one is Mrs. Nian.

But Yinzhen knew that Concubine Nian's methods were all overt. If she wanted to torture people, she would really do it. She would not do anything behind the scenes, and she did not have the brains to do so.

What's more, anyone who could think of using food incompatibility and burying musk seeds to harm people must be someone who understands medical principles.

In the entire backyard, Fu Jin is the only one who understands medicine.

Yinzhen couldn't help but suspect her, but he didn't confront her because he couldn't find any evidence. But because of these suspicions in his heart, he didn't want to face Fu Jin for the time being.

On New Year's Eve, because the two masters of the mansion had to go to the palace, Fujin Nian, who was in charge of the mansion affairs, would host a banquet in Mixiuyuan to celebrate the New Year with everyone.

This is also true this year.

Those present included Nian Fu Jin, Li Fu Jin, Lü Ying Feng, Feng Ge Ge, Fei Ge Ge, and Fu Ge Ge. Cao Ge Ge was ill and did not come, and Qi Shu Fu Jin was not invited at all.

Mrs. Li seemed to be really ill. She lost a lot of weight and became timid. She didn't even dare to look at Lu Yingfeng for long.

Lu Yingfeng was too lazy to argue with this idiot and just ate and drank.

Now that Yinzhen and the divisive concubine are not around, the few of them can get along harmoniously.

At the table, the wife acted like a mistress, caring about this and that, rarely showing disdain to them. When she mentioned the wife, she couldn't help but taunt him, "Speaking of which, the prince didn't stay in the main courtyard last time on the 15th. I don't know if the wife can keep the prince here today, hehe~"

As a lackey of Nian Fu Jin, Fei Gege immediately agreed, "Fu Jin is old and not favored by the prince. The prince is unwilling to put himself in a difficult position. What can Fu Jin do? Speaking of favor, who in our palace can compare to you, Nian Fu Jin! Take the Huan Yi Xiang in this room for example. That is the fragrance that the prince personally selected for you. He also gave it such a good name. It is only for you to enjoy. Others don't have this blessing!"

After hearing this, Mrs. Nian was even happier. She was so happy that she gave Feigege a pair of white jade bracelets.

Lu Yingfeng looked at the pair of bracelets and remembered that Yinzhen once gave a pair of jade bracelets to his concubine, who was still a concubine. He also held her hand and said to her, "I wish I had such rings so that we can see each other day and night." However, people's hearts are fickle, and no matter how beautiful the promises were, they all became fleeting clouds.

Smelling the fragrance of Huanyi in the room, Lu Yingfeng felt that Mrs. Nian was pathetic and pitiful. She thought to herself that if Mrs. Nian did not target her in the future and did not do those things that hurt others, she would give her a pill to conceive a girl.

On the contrary, she felt that if Yinzhen did not stop Concubine Nian's rampant temper, the following things might happen. She would probably save the pill for conceiving a girl.

In the palace, after the palace banquet, Concubine De called Yinzhen and his wife to Yonghe Palace.

"Old Fourth, Mother heard that you have been neglecting your wife recently and have not even gone to the main courtyard?"

Although Defei's words were not a question, Yinzhen couldn't help feeling impatient.

After all, no one would feel comfortable if their mother were in charge of the backyard affairs.

However, due to filial piety, Yinzhen replied honestly: "Yes, I am busy with government affairs and have no time."

De Fei glanced at Fu Jin who was hanging her head, snorted coldly and said, "Then how can you have time to go to someone else's room?"

Yinzhen was silent.

Concubine De continued, "Fu Jin has been with you for many years, and has taken care of all the affairs in the palace for you. Even if she has no merit, she has worked hard. You are so disrespectful to her because of her momentary oversight. How can she have a dignified foothold in the backyard? And you are so neglectful of Fu Jin, isn't it just making her relatives sad and her enemies happy?"

"What does mother mean?" Yinzhen asked.

"When my mother heard about Concubine Lu's affair, she asked someone to investigate. It took several days to find out the result. It was undoubtedly done by the Eighth Elder. That woman was the distant cousin of the Eighth Elder's nanny. She came to the mansion to be a spy, but the Eighth Elder had few children and couldn't bear to see you surrounded by children, so she asked that woman to do it. It's a pity that the woman disappeared after entering the Eighth Elder's mansion. If you don't believe me, go and check it yourself."

Defei was confident that if she could clean up the mess herself, Yinzhen would not be able to find out.

At this time, Yinzhen was still just a prince, and no one from the Sticking Rod Office worked for him. In addition, he believed that although he was not the favorite son of Concubine De, Concubine De would not protect the murderer who hurt his child, so he really believed this statement.

But he didn't favor his wife, and he only respected her. So even though he knew she was innocent, he didn't favor her much, but just allowed her to stay overnight on the first and fifteenth days of the lunar month.

Fu Jin knew that she was old and had injured her body when giving birth to the eldest prince, so she had been unable to bear children for a long time. Therefore, she had no hope of Yinzhen's favor and just felt disappointed in her heart.

Yinzhen was busy with affairs before the New Year and rarely went to the backyard. Maybe he hadn't been to Yue Mingxuan for many days.

When Lu Yingfeng paid her respects recently, Fu Jin Nian mocked her, saying that it was useless even though she was pregnant and she couldn't keep Yinzhen, which made Lu Yingfeng very angry.

She was so angry that she decided to teach Mrs. Nian a lesson.

When Lu Yingfeng learned that Mrs. Nian had asked the small kitchen to prepare a table of dishes and sent someone to the front yard to invite Yinzhen, he quickly asked Xiao Xiangzi to go to the front yard to deliver snacks and intercepted Yinzhen that night.

"I pay my respects to you, Master~"

Lu Yingfeng wanted to seduce her, so he naturally had to soften his posture. He greeted her softly and pulled her towards the dining table.

"My Lord, I haven't eaten with you for several days. I missed you so much that I prepared a table of your favorite food. I hope you will enjoy it."

"Okay." Yinzhen tapped Lu Yingfeng's nose and replied with a smile, "Then I'll try it."

There were not so many rules when Lu Yingfeng and Yinzhen had meals. Of course, that was also because Yinzhen was not the emperor yet, so the rules were not so strict.

During the meal, Lu Yingfeng poured Yinzhen a few glasses of wine.

...It's the kind of warm sake that the Queen Mother prepared for Shen Meizhuang in the drama.

After finishing his meal, Yinzhen felt hot and thought it was because the charcoal basin in the room was too hot, so he suggested that he accompany Lu Yingfeng for a walk in the yard to help digest the food and cool down.

It’s a pity that the heat didn’t dissipate much, and Yinzhen still felt dry mouth.

After returning to the house and drinking a few cups of herbal tea, Yinzhen touched Lu Yingfeng's belly and asked, "It's been four months, right?"

Lu Yingfeng nodded in agreement, then took the initiative to put her arms around his neck.

Yinzhen knew that Lu Yingfeng was beautiful, but he felt that Lu Yingfeng was particularly beautiful tonight.

Yinzhen could no longer control himself, and picked up Lu Yingfeng and carefully placed her on the bed. Not wanting to press on her stomach, he laid her on her side and gently took her.

"How is your stomach? Are you feeling any discomfort? I shouldn't have--" Lu Yingfeng covered his mouth with her hands, wishing she could stick her whole body to him, and said softly: "Master, I am fine, my stomach is fine. You forgot what the palace doctor said, I am in very good health. Moreover, I feel very comfortable."

After a month, Lu Yingfeng finally experienced a wonderful nightlife again, but she was still a little unsatisfied. Without waiting for him to speak, she turned over and sat on him, seducing him to do it again.

Although Yinzhen was experienced, he had never been held down by a woman. If he had never experienced this, he would definitely feel humiliated.

But after experiencing it personally, he found it novel, exciting, and labor-saving!

Anyway, both of them were very satisfied with this night.

To be on the safe side, Yinzhen asked the court doctor to check Lu Yingfeng's pulse the next day. After learning that her pulse was as good as ever, he no longer hesitated and would stay overnight at Yuemingxuan from time to time.

The women in the backyard, especially Mrs. Nian, were so angry that their teeth were itching.

Lu Yingfeng was pregnant and favored, she was the talk of the town.
