It turns out that Hongying is already pregnant, maybe with a illegitimate child, and Dou Miaojin herself is unable to consummate the marriage, so there is no telling when the love poison will be cured.

On the wedding night, Jixiang consummated the marriage with Lu Changyuan on her behalf. No matter how Lu Changyuan explained that he mistook Jixiang for her, Dou Miaojin could not accept it. At that time, she heard that they were fighting fiercely.

She still remembered that in her previous life, she climbed onto Lu Changyuan's bed and he was just as forceful and lost control on her. His deep, charming voice still made her ears warm when she thought of it.

It's hard to imagine that he would have such a passionate relationship with another woman.

Or her dowry maid.

Dou Miaojin felt heartbroken. She vowed not to be a human being if she didn't kill Jixiang today.

"No, I want Jixiang to die today. If she lives, let me die!" Dou Miaojin became stubborn and didn't even care about her dignity. She looked at Lu Changyuan crying, "Lu Changyuan, don't force me!"

Lu Changyuan narrowed his eyes. In front of so many people, Dou Miaojin was so disrespectful. Wasn't she just a maid?

However, the temptation to ask Yanzhi Jian to treat the queen was too great for Lu Changyuan. The figure riding on the horse and galloping wildly seemed to appear before his eyes again. The heroic figure was the first thing he had seen in his life.

"Someone, drag this bitch away and beat her to death!" Lu Changyuan said coldly.

A woman rushed in again and tried to take Jixiang away.

Jixiang was so frightened that he trembled all over and knelt in front of Dou Jinzhao.

Dou Jinzhao rubbed her shoulders soothingly, and without even looking at Dou Miaojin, he asked softly, "Jixiang, tell me, am I mistaken? Is the black spot at the base of sister Miaojin's ear a birthmark? As far as I can remember, it didn't exist before."

Jixiang suddenly gained confidence and calmed down.

Dou Miaojin lost her composure. She rushed to Dou Jinzhao and asked, "What do you want to do?"

Dou Jinzhao smiled and said, "Sister Miaojin, please forgive others when you can! The Duke Dingguo Mansion is different from the Dou family. This is a military commander's mansion, and the inheritance of incense is more important. Without someone, who will go to the battlefield? Madam, don't you think so?"

The lady gave Dou Miaojin a cold look, then turned to Dou Jinzhao in a very kind way, "Jinzhao is still very reasonable. It's not appropriate to see blood on a day like today. Let Jixiang offer you a cup of tea here. From now on, you and Hongying will be my aunt and live in the East Courtyard!"

This is the harem, which is no different from the court. The art of balance and intrigue can be seen everywhere.

"Thank you, mother!" Dou Jinzhao accepted the tea from Hongying and the other two, and then took out two hairpins from his head to reward them. Then he stood up and helped the old lady out. "Please forgive me, mother. Sister Miaojin came home today and made such a joke. It's my daughter-in-law's fault for not managing the household well."

The lady's demeanor made Dou Miaojin dumbfounded and also made her angry and crazy.

On the first day of her marriage, she was completely suppressed by Dou Jinzhao.

The lady patted Dou Jinzhao's hand affectionately, "Miao Jin is young and hot-tempered, you should be more considerate. You two sisters now share the same husband, so don't make any more jokes."

Even if the lady disliked Dou Miaojin, she didn't dare to offend her easily. The whereabouts of the Rouge Sword was still in Dou Miaojin's hands. Dou Jinzhao knew it very well. As long as her goal was achieved, the intimacy between the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law was just a show. They both knew it.

Dou Miaojin had no idea. When Dou Jinzhao took Hongying and Jixiang away, she was hysterical again and yelled at Lu Changyuan, "You promised me that you only wanted me, but who are they? Hongying is pregnant with your child. Wuwuwu, Lu Changyuan, how could you do this to me? Do you still love me?"

Lu Changyuan had a headache and lost his patience. He glanced at Dou Miaojin and said, "Miaojin, you have already married into the family. You will be my wife from now on. If Jinzhao comes in the future... you will still be the wife of the Lu family. Do you plan to manage the household affairs and be the mistress of the Duke Dingguo's mansion?"

Dou Miaojin collapsed and screamed, "I don't want to be a clan wife, and I don't want to be in charge of household affairs. You know very well that all I want is you, you. I just want you to love me, love me alone!"

Generally speaking, love is beautiful, but love will eventually lead to marriage. It is not just about the daily necessities of life, but also about family interests, which are related to future generations.

Lu Changyuan subconsciously felt that he seemed to have taken the wrong path, but now that he had already walked this path, he had no choice but to continue on.

After patiently comforting Dou Miaojin for a while, he called someone to come in and re-make the bed. He went to the side room to take a shower. When he came back, Dou Miaojin was still sitting on the chair like a statue, tears in her eyes. It was unknown what she was thinking.

She was thinking about her previous life, when she and Lu Changyuan were not like this. Lu Changyuan was deeply in love with her, and they only had each other, with no concubines or maids. It was not like this now, where Hongying actually already had Lu Changyuan's child.

Dou Miaojin didn't know what she did wrong. She suddenly thought of Dou Jinzhao. Did she know about the love poison, or did Ruyi tell her something? Was Dou Jinzhao also responsible for Hongying's pregnancy?

Since she herself cannot become the Lu family's head wife, does that mean she can't live a happy life?

"It's getting late. We still have to meet our relatives tomorrow, so go to bed early!" Lu Changyuan couldn't help feeling upset when he saw Dou Miaojin's face covered with snot and tears.

Dou Miaojin sniffed, "Brother Changyuan, I was too impulsive just now. I was so sad. It's because I love you too much! Did we fall for Xie Jinzhao's trick? Was all this a trap she set up deliberately?"

Lu Changyuan frowned. How could Dou Jinzhao set a trap? Did she set a trap to make Dou Miaojin take a bath at that time and hold her in the bathtub? Did she set a trap to make Ruyi come to serve her and make her admit her mistake?

"Don't think too much, it's not a big deal." Lu Changyuan didn't think that sleeping with a maid was a big deal. If there was anything wrong, it was just that the timing was wrong.

Dou Miaojin is obviously responsible for this matter. How could she just keep taking a shower on her wedding night and leave the groom on the bed without doing anything?

He also drank too much.

"You actually think this is not a big deal!" Dou Miaojin screamed once again and collapsed again. She waited for a long time but there was no response. When she turned around, Lu Changyuan was already lying on the bed and sleeping.

The next day, they met their relatives at Xuancao Hall.

Dou Miaojin rolled her eyes with hot eggs for a long time in the morning, and her eyes were so swollen that she couldn't cover them with makeup. She changed into a bright red dress and followed Lu Changyuan to Xuancao Hall.

At the fork in the road, the two met Dou Jinzhao who came with Hongying and Jixiang. Dou Miaojin couldn't suppress her anger and glared at Dou Jinzhao. Just as she was about to provoke him, Dou Jinzhao smiled and said, "Sister, at today's family recognition banquet, you should thank your second sister-in-law. Your wedding was arranged by your second sister-in-law. No one else can be as capable as your second sister-in-law to arrange your wedding like this!"

Dou Miaojin was like a chicken with its feathers standing on end. "The lady you invited couldn't even sing the song for spreading the bed properly? If she hadn't been unable to sing the song for spreading the bed properly, maybe my wedding night wouldn't have gone as wrong as it did last night. How dare you say that this wedding was well organized?"
