"Is Miss Qu Si sick?" Ji Youran asked with a cold face.
"Our young lady was originally ill. Ning Yin, the Taoist priest from Qingyun Temple, came over and talked to her for a while. She lost her energy and has not woken up since she fell asleep."
Yudong looked worried.
"Didn't you say that your hand was injured before?" After being rejected, Ji Youran's face would definitely not look good.
"My hand was injured and I'm not feeling well, so I came out of the city to recuperate." Yu Dong was very respectful.
"Tell your lady that I am here to tell her something important, which concerns Minister Qu's future." Ji Youran snorted coldly and said.
"Yes, I'll report to you as soon as the young lady wakes up!" Yu Dong said respectfully, but his feet did not move. He blocked the road, and it was obvious that he had no intention of letting Ji Youran's carriage in.
"I'll come again tomorrow morning." After saying this helplessly, Ji Youran turned the carriage around and left.
Qu Moying had indeed taken a nap, but now he had gotten up and was standing in front of the window, watching Ji Youran's carriage leave with a cold look in his eyes.
Every time she saw Ji Youran, she would think of the moment when she was thrown off the Linyuan Terrace, and those words...
There was a sound of door curtains, and Yu Dong lifted the curtains and came in: "Miss, the person has left!"
"What did you say?" Qu Moying turned around and sat down on the chair.
"He said he would come again tomorrow, and mentioned something important concerning the Second Master..." Yu Dong described Ji Youran's expression and behavior in detail.
"What do you think happened?" Qu Moying asked after a moment of silence.
"I think it's about the Second Master becoming the Shangshu. The young lady has already conveyed the message on behalf of the master, and the Second Master also went to the Prince of England's mansion that day. I think this is the answer." Yu Dong didn't think this matter was difficult to accomplish. Since the master had spoken, the Second Master would definitely pay the corresponding price, but he couldn't escape the position of Shangshu.
Whether your daughter is the daughter of a minister or a vice minister, it is still very important to the daughter in the eyes of outsiders.
"Concubine Ji came to tell me about my father's matter?" Qu Moying curled the corners of his lips sarcastically.
"Maybe he thought she was the first one to know, so he came here on purpose to make friends with the young lady." Yu Dong thought for a moment and said.
"But I don't want to!" Qu Moying's face turned cold, and he reiterated, "I don't want to be friends with her!"
The two people have a deep blood feud, and Qu Moying even wanted to drink Ji Youran's blood. After her rebirth, she planned every step, and the once tilted and almost impossible balance has gradually become stable.
It's time for her to take revenge...
"Miss, will you come here tomorrow using the same excuse as today?" Yu Dong asked.
"Yes! It's still the same reason!" Qu Moying said, "It's the same excuse!"
"Do you want to change the reason?" Yu Dong said.
"Since you've refused, there's no need to be polite. Just slap him in the face!" Qu Moying said coldly. You could call her willful or ignorant. She could tolerate many things, but she just couldn't tolerate sitting down and talking "intimately" with the enemy who killed her father and sister, and even had to pretend to have a close relationship with him.
She can't do it!
So at the beginning, she was extremely cold and indifferent to Ji Youran.
The blood of her family paved the way for Ji Youran's success. Now she also wants to gradually restore Ji Youran's success.
The cloud road is cut off.
From the beginning to the end, she would never have any "good intentions" towards Ji Youran, even if they were false. This was the only thing she insisted on after her rebirth.
She had already told Ji Youran the method and sent people to her. She wanted Ji Youran to feel the power within her reach, but in the end, she was still kicked down from the sky...
As for the present, she could expect that after she once again rejected Ji Youran's kindness, Ji Youran would not make trouble for herself and lose her face.
Ji Youran knew Pei Luoan's style of doing things, and he also knew it...
She came here this time to "drive" Ji Youran away. If something happened at the Liu Mansion in the capital, if Ji Youran was in the capital, he would definitely intervene...
Sure enough, the next day, Ji Youran came again, but was rejected with similar reasons. Ji Youran was so angry that she almost had someone beat her up, but in the end, she was persuaded by the people around her.
If Qu Moying was still the same Qu Moying, Ji Youran would have sent someone to attack and humiliate her this time. But the current Qu Moying is no longer the same Qu Moying as before, the future Princess of England. Just for this reason, Ji Youran dare not act rashly.
She originally wanted to make friends with Qu Moying by first revealing the news that Qu Zhizhen was going to be promoted, and then borrow the hot springs here from Qu Moying. The imperial physician in the palace also said that the hot springs here were more effective. Her body was slowly recovering and she needed the best hot springs. But the bitch Qu Moying didn't even see her, and she couldn't make such a request to a servant.
Where could she put her face
After returning to her own farm, Ji Youran was so angry that she smashed all the porcelain in the room. Finally, following the suggestion from her mother-in-law, she hugged her belly, slowly sat down and calmed down her anger.
She couldn't be angry. She had to take good care of herself and get pregnant with the prince's first child. As long as she was pregnant, she would have a way to gain the prince's approval.
She found out everything after consulting other doctors. The imperial physician of the Eastern Palace didn't say a word about her health. He just kept saying that she was in good health, nothing was wrong, and everything was fine.
If it weren't for Xie Feng, if she hadn't become suspicious, if she hadn't gone to the Ling Anbo Mansion to ask her mother to invite a few doctors over, she would still have been kept in the dark until now.
The reason she hadn't been able to conceive before was because she had taken contraceptive medicine, but not ordinary contraceptive soup, so she had been unaware of the situation. She thought the prince allowed her to have a baby, but her stomach was not fertile. In addition, she had had the "pregnancy incident" of Xie Feng before, so she had never considered that the prince didn't allow her to have children.
A small concubine can be enough, and she, a concubine, can certainly be even more so.
Besides, she has always believed that she is the apple of the prince's eye and the only woman who pleases the prince and is not the one he has to marry out of necessity!
But reality slapped her hard in the face.
She also took contraceptive medicine. Although she never used contraceptive soup, she would usually accompany the prince to have some midnight snacks. The contraceptive medicine was in these midnight snacks, which were among her favorite dishes in the past.
Several doctors said that contraceptive pills are more harmful to the body than contraceptive soups. During this period, she was particularly focused on regulating her body, avoiding the prince's gaze, and no longer taking food that contained contraceptive pills.
She wanted to get pregnant, she wanted to give birth to the prince's first child, she wanted to give this child to Ji Hanyue and become the legitimate
Yanshun’s eldest son.
When her son is enthroned, she will be the future empress dowager, a status more honorable than that of the empress who is the mother of a country. Even if the prince does not have her in his heart, even if the prince does not make her the queen, it does not matter. As long as her child is Ji Hanyue's child, she believes that the prince will definitely look upon her with respect.
For this reason, she went to the imperial physician and got the palace's secret prescription for having a child. Although the imperial physician said that the effect depends on the individual and the effect is not great, and even if she gets pregnant, the child will be weaker, but what does it matter, as long as it works, she just wants to give birth to a son, even if it's like the King of Wei, it doesn't matter!
It’s better to have it than nothing!
She needs a child now.
"My lady, don't be angry. Wait... everything will happen in the future. The fourth young lady of the Qu family will kneel before you and beg for mercy." A maid stepped forward and advised with a hint of meaning, and brought a cup of warm water to Ji Youran.
"I know that even Ji Hanyue wouldn't dare to be arrogant in front of me." Ji Youran took a sip of water, calmed down his anger, and said gloomily.
She would endure it. She had pulled down the once high and mighty Ji Hanyue, and now he was just a Qu Moying!
"It's the best that Your Majesty thinks this way. There's new news from the capital just now. Would you like to listen to it?" The old woman breathed a sigh of relief to see her like this. Everyone around Ji Youran was looking forward to some good news from Ji Youran's belly. Basically, all the methods they knew to have a child had been used.
Even some weird remedies.
This is the most important thing for Ji Youran at the moment, but even so, she still sent some people to keep a close eye on the Liu Mansion. A lot of things have happened in the Liu Mansion recently, and Ji Youran sensed some benefits from them, so she asked people to keep a close eye on the Liu Mansion.
"What's the matter?" Ji Youran reached out and touched her stomach, trying to calm down the anger caused by Qu Moying.
"Minister Liu has brought his mistress into the family as a concubine. I heard that it was County Lady Jingyu who agreed. Madam Liu is not feeling well and has difficulty moving, so it was County Lady Jingyu who handled this for Minister Liu." The old woman curled her lips.
"She is really good at seeking fame and reputation! She knew that Madam Liu might want to kill the concubine, but she actually took the initiative to take it for Madam Liu! How generous and decent! Is this for His Highness to see?" Ji Youran sneered, seeing through Liu Jingyu's intention at a glance, and slammed his hand on the table, "What does His Highness say?"
"I heard that His Highness sent a gift to County Lord Jingyu. I think he should agree with it!" The old woman whispered, reminding carefully, "My Queen, I think you should go back to the mansion now! Don't let them take advantage of you. Do you really believe that County Lord Jingyu will take the person in?"
If anything happens, the concubine will respond quickly in the mansion!
"Let's go back now. My stomach is upset..." Ji Youran said hesitantly.
"You already know how to deal with this contraceptive medicine. You won't let His Highness know. You are in good health. It shouldn't be that difficult to get pregnant at this time. Besides, there are people living there now. If His Highness knows, he will have to ask you to go over and make friends with them!" the old woman hinted.
The prince's intention has always been very clear. He wanted Ji Youran to befriend Qu Moying, but Qu Moying didn't give Ji Youran face. If she stayed here, it would mean being rejected again and again. Even if she could endure it, she couldn't afford to lose face...
