Traveling through the Poisonous Concubine

Chapter 214 Mei Ji

In Kyoto, this New Year, Emperor Suwen was in an especially good mood and doted on Concubine Rong even more. He even often visited the Empress's palace, truly ensuring that everyone was treated equally.

In the basement of the Luo Mansion, the light is dim and the atmosphere is depressing, making people feel a heavy sense of oppression.

The third prince stood there, his face frosty and his gloomy eyes as chilling as a poisonous snake.

"Grandfather, wasn't it agreed that the Crown Prince of Northern Qi would arrive in Kyoto before the New Year? Why is there no movement until now? This prince had originally planned to get rid of the reputation of being an idiot on New Year's Eve, but now that the New Year has passed, it still has not been realized." The third prince said angrily, his tone full of disappointment and dissatisfaction.

Luo Lu hurriedly stopped him: "Minghao, how can you be so rude! Where is your sense of propriety and honor? Father has been busy with this matter. If it weren't for your mother's current favor and the emperor's slackening of surveillance on the Luo Mansion, do you think father and I would be idle all day?"

"Lu'er, shut up!" Luo's face darkened and he stopped Luo Lu from speaking. Then, he turned to look at the Third Prince and explained earnestly:

"Minghao, your uncle is not wrong. Grandfather understands your anxiety, but the fact is that the prince of Northern Qi was seriously injured by people sent by his brothers as soon as he left the palace. He has not recovered yet, so his journey was delayed. Here is a letter, take a look."

Prime Minister Luo handed a letter to the third prince, which described in detail the attack on the Crown Prince of Northern Qi and the subsequent developments.

After reading the letter, the third prince's face became even gloomier.

"Grandfather, uncle, I was too impatient," the third prince apologized hastily. He knew in his heart that if his grandfather had not planned for him over the years, he would not have achieved what he has today.

"Ming Hao, I have obtained fifty war horses from Northern Qi. The third prince of Northern Qi will secretly divide them among us in batches. You send people from the Netherworld to pick them up, and make sure no one discovers."

"Well, I'll follow Grandfather's arrangements. I'll go back first. Yue'er is still in the mansion. The baby in her belly is very important. We can't be careless. Grandfather will find a good doctor outside to send him here, and he will be ready for Yue'er at all times."

"Minghao, I will arrange this matter. You must not reveal your identity or be caught by others. The Crown Prince of Northern Qi will come to Dayan as soon as he recovers from his injury. If it's fast, it will be the Lantern Festival, and if it's slow, it will be the beginning of February." Prime Minister Luo looked at the third prince's departing back and said sternly.

Luo Lu couldn't help but feel a little worried when listening to his father's words. He knew that the success of this plan was related to the future of the entire family. And the third prince was also a force he had to rely on. However, he didn't know whether this plan could really be implemented smoothly.

Luo Lu watched his father leave and prayed in his heart: I hope everything will go well...

Luo Luo turned around and returned to his room, but he couldn't calm down. He knew that although the plan seemed perfect, there were still many risks and variables.

Moreover, he also has to face challenges and pressure from other forces.

However, he had no way out. If he failed, he would be doomed. Thinking of this, he gritted his teeth and made up his mind to get things done.

"Father, if you do this, I'm afraid Yue'er will feel uncomfortable," Luo Lu said cautiously.

"Don't worry, just do it. This is Yue'er's idea. She is pregnant now. Instead of letting Minghao favor someone else, it's better to stick to his own people. At least we can rest assured." Prime Minister Luo flicked his sleeves and left the basement.

Luo Lu looked at Luo Jingde's back with a gloomy look in his eyes, and then left the basement.

Luo Lu thought about what his father said, and a complex emotion surged in his heart. He knew that his father's decision might be out of consideration for the interests of the family, but for Qi Yue, it was undoubtedly a harm.

However, he was powerless to change anything.

Qi Yue was quite thin, and she showed no signs of being pregnant even though she was almost three months pregnant. In addition, her pregnancy reaction was quite severe, and she looked a little haggard.

“Yue’er, come here and let me see you,” the Third Prince in the bedroom looked at Qi Yue with a doting look on his face. His hand was even stroking the belly of the Third Prince’s wife Qi Yue, feeling the faint breath of life.

"Your Highness. The child is still young, but I felt the baby's movement yesterday." Qi Yue smiled, looking extremely happy.

"Yue'er, is this true?" So the third prince leaned over and put his ear against Qi Yue's belly, trying to feel something.

At this time, a servant came to report that Madam Qi had arrived. Qi Yue was very happy because it was her mother who came to see her.

"Yue'er, go and receive my mother-in-law. I'm going to the study to take care of some things. I'll be with you later."

The third prince returned to the study and called his subordinates. Soon a beautiful woman came and sat on the third prince's lap unscrupulously.

The woman was dressed in hot clothes, looked a bit evil, and said in a seductive voice:

"Oh, Your Highness, are you missing me? Aren't you afraid that your princess will be jealous? I miss you." As she spoke, her hands unconsciously touched the third prince's body.

The third prince suddenly felt his body getting hot, so he scolded: "Mei Ji, do you want to die? You actually gave me that kind of medicine."

Mei Ji smiled wickedly, "Your Highness, I will detoxify you right away." The Third Prince felt extremely hot. In his eyes, Mei Ji was as beautiful as a fairy, so he picked up Mei Ji regardless of everything and pressed her on the desk.

Qi Yue, with a happy face, personally carried the lotus seed soup to the study room, but just as she reached the door of the study room, she heard shameful noises from inside.

The guard guarding the door was so anxious that he was sweating profusely. He stopped Qi Yue and tried to prevent her from entering.

However, the guards could not afford to offend Qi Yue who was pregnant, so they could only watch Qi Yue push the door and walk out.

The Third Prince was still going crazy in front of her. The white bodies of the two people on the bed stung Qi Yue's eyes, and big tears rolled down.

Mei Ji had a satisfied expression on her face and pushed the Third Prince away, and the Third Prince finally regained his senses.

Looking at his naked self and Mei Ji still lying under him, he remembered something and became furious, slapping Mei Ji on the chest.

Mei Ji was caught off guard, spit out blood, and fainted.

The third prince looked up and saw Qi Yue standing at the door. He instantly woke up and put on his clothes. Qi Yue turned around and ran away.

The third prince chased after Qi Yue and tried to explain, but Qi Yue was not in a position to listen at that moment.

His feet slipped and he fell, then a stream of bright red blood flowed out from under his body and he fainted.

The third prince hurriedly picked up Qi Yue and shouted loudly, asking the guards to call a doctor.

Mei Ji woke up slowly, gave a wicked smile, then put on her clothes and left.

The doctor was carried by the guards to the bedroom of the Third Prince's wife.
