【How am I supposed to explain to them that I wasn’t the one who kicked Duan Qingli? Ugh, the original body did too many bad things, and now they’re all being blamed on me. I’m really unlucky.】
【The Tenth Princess is a good person, but unfortunately, she’s too young to distinguish between good and bad people. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have been tricked by the Crown Prince and Shen Qingchen, deceived both physically and emotionally. Sigh, when it comes down to it, she’s just a pitiful character.】
Shen Qingchen?
Is the person Seventh Sister-in-law mentioned really Shen Qingchen?
She met Shen Qingchen at the Qilin Poetry Society. That day, he composed a short poem about “Spring,” which on the surface depicted the beautiful scenery of spring but was actually a philosophical poem. It earned the admiration of all the poets present and captured the hearts of many young ladies.
A scholar from a humble background with such remarkable talent—it was hard for her not to be moved.
Afterward, she even chatted with Shen Qingchen. He hated evil and spoke eloquently. How could he possibly be the kind of villain Seventh Sister-in-law described?
Seventh Sister-in-law’s delusional disorder is truly a bit frightening.
Chi Yanning and Chi Yanzhou exchanged glances.
Liang Chuying explained, “I really didn’t know she was pregnant. Besides, if I had kicked her hard, she would have had problems long ago. It couldn’t have dragged on until today. In my opinion, she just wants to extort some money. How about I send her some silver? I guarantee her belly will be fine.”
Chi Yanning lowered her voice and asked Chi Yanzhou, “Seventh Brother, has Seventh Sister-in-law developed a delusional disorder?”
Chi Yanzhou looked at Liang Chuying with a complicated expression, then called Su Zihuai over and whispered, “Quickly investigate Wei Qingran’s identity.”
“Yes.”
Su Zihuai withdrew.
Liang Chuying took the opportunity to give Chi Yanzhou a flirtatious glance, her voice soft and seductive: “Husband, what do you think of my suggestion?”
Chi Yanzhou glared at her: “In front of Tenth Sister, behave yourself. Don’t corrupt a child.”
“Oh.”
【Damn it, if it weren’t for the Heartbeat Value, do you think I’d want to flirt with you?】
【Dagua, quickly check how much the Heartbeat Value is now?】
【Boss, you’re supposed to cater to his preferences, but instead, you’re doing the opposite. Do you still expect the Heartbeat Value to rise?】
【This is so exhausting. What kind of nonsense Heartbeat Value is this? It’s even harder than cultivation! Wuwu, Dagua, please grant me some Spiritual Power so I can cultivate! I want to teach this damn man a lesson!】
【Boss, if you want Spiritual Power, you need to raise the Heartbeat Value first. For every ten points added, you can request a small reward.】
【Does going from negative to positive by ten points count?】
【No, it doesn’t.】
【Wuwu, this is too hard for me! Damn man, would it kill you to love me a little?】
Hearing her torrent of inner thoughts, Chi Yanning suddenly felt that Seventh Sister-in-law was quite amusing.
【Speaking of which, everyone has their hidden flaws. The Tenth Princess’s body odor makes her quite insecure.】
Upon hearing this, Chi Yanning’s face immediately flushed red.
She did have body odor. It was manageable in winter when she wore thick clothing, but in summer, with thin clothing, the smell became unbearable.
Even she couldn’t stand it herself, let alone others.
Because she was a princess, the servants didn’t dare say anything to her face, but she knew they must be gossiping behind her back.
Whenever she attended palace banquets, she had to change clothes at least five times, fearing that her body odor would give others a bad experience.
This was her deepest insecurity.
She never expected Seventh Sister-in-law to find out.
Chi Yanzhou quickly took a sip of tea to hide his embarrassment.
Tenth Sister’s body odor was indeed unbearable.
The imperial physicians had tried their best to treat it, but there was no improvement.
Even with the use of expensive fragrances, the smell on her body couldn’t be masked.
【Actually, body odor isn’t that big of a deal. Those imperial physicians in the palace are too useless. If I were to make two incisions on Tenth Princess to remove her apocrine glands, her body odor problem would be completely cured.】
Chi Yanning was overjoyed—her body odor could be cured?
She had already given up hope.
Now that Seventh Sister-in-law could cure her completely, she must cling tightly to Seventh Sister-in-law.
Chi Yanzhou knew his sister’s concerns. He set down his teacup: “Ning’er, let’s go to Rui Wang Fu first to see how things are.”
Chi Yanning nodded.
“Seventh Sister-in-law, let’s go to Rui Wang Fu together.”
Chi Yanning stepped forward and took Liang Chuying’s hand.
Liang Chuying felt a bit embarrassed: “I shouldn’t go, right? How about you take a bag of silver for me?”
Chi Yanzhou glared at her: “Clean up your own mess, or I won’t mind forcing you there with a broadsword!”
Liang Chuying was extremely frustrated. What kind of person is this?
So domineering!
Rui Wang Fu.
A female physician was taking Duan Qingli’s pulse.
“Wuwu, I’m bleeding. Your Highness, Li’er is bleeding heavily down there. Is Li’er going to die?”
Chi Yanbei held Duan Qingli’s hand, comforting her: “Li’er, you’ll be fine. I’ve already sent someone to fetch Imperial Physician Liu.”
Wuwu, I’m worried that once you bring Imperial Physician Liu, my trick will be exposed!
“Your Highness, it must be that Li’er’s fate is too weak to grow old with you.”
“Nonsense, Li’er. I forbid you from thinking such thoughts.”
“It doesn’t matter if Li’er dies, but failing to protect Your Highness’s child is Li’er’s fault.”
“Li’er will be fine. I swear, both you and the child will be safe.”
Duan Qingli cried pitifully: “Li’er’s greatest regret in this life is not being able to wear a wedding dress and marry Your Highness beautifully.”
“Li’er, as long as you recover, I will immediately seek His Majesty’s permission for you to marry into Rui Wang Fu.”
“Wuwu, Your Highness, you are too good to Li’er. I’m afraid Li’er’s fortune is too shallow.”
After saying this, Duan Qingli pretended to faint.
Chi Yanbei was shocked: “Physician, what’s going on?”
The female physician said urgently: “Your Highness Prince Rui, Miss Duan has lost too much blood. Please step outside for now.”
Chi Yanbei had no choice but to step out.
He anxiously waited outside the main gate for Imperial Physician Liu.
But instead of Imperial Physician Liu, he waited for Liang Chuying, the culprit!
In a fit of rage, Chi Yanbei drew his sword and thrust it directly at her!
Liang Chuying was so frightened that she immediately hid behind Chi Yanzhou.
“Husband, Second Brother has gone mad. He wants to kill me!”
【Damn! If this were my past life, Chi Yanzhou would have died eight hundred times already for treating me like this!】
【Bullying me because I’m weak and powerless in this life?】
【Serves you right for being deceived by that scumbag woman! Serves you right for having a short life!】
【Once I recover my Spiritual Power and resume Cultivation, you’ll be the first one I deal with!】
“Liang Chuying, I’m going to kill you!”
When the first thrust missed, Chi Yanbei thrust again.
Chi Yanzhou grabbed the sharp blade: “Second Brother, calm down.”
“Calm down? How can I calm down? My child is about to be lost! You don’t know—Li’er bled so much!”
【Hah, that’s not even your child! Why are you so worked up?】
【That blood is dog blood! Don’t you know Duan Qingli’s father is a butcher? He makes a living by slaughtering dogs for others. Duan Qingli brought several bags of dog blood today. Earlier at An Wangfu, it almost suffocated me.】
Chi Yanning also tried to persuade him: “Second Brother, calm down first. Seventh Brother’s hand is bleeding.”
Chi Yanbei finally lowered his sword.
Liang Chuying immediately snatched Chi Yanzhou’s injured hand with lightning speed and blew on it gently.
“Husband, you’ve bled for me!”
【What’s a little blood for a grown man? If it weren’t for the Heartbeat Value, I’d have wanted to add another cut.】
