Chapter 289 A drop of kindness is repaid by a spring.
Xianxian did not refuse directly, but just stared at Liu Rong curiously and asked.
"You need my help? Are you having any trouble in the palace?"
Faced with Xianxian's question, Liu Rong began to hesitate again.
Thinking of the persecution that Xianxian had inflicted on me.
She didn't dare to tell the truth.
What if the other party tells others?
You must not let anyone else know that you are pregnant.
On the one hand, he wanted Xianxian to help him, but on the other hand, he was worried about her.
Seeing that Liu Rong didn't say anything, Xianxian showed some impatience.
"Since you don't want to trust me, then don't ask me for help."
Xianxian bowed slightly and was about to leave.
Liu Rong is now at a dead end.
The only way is to go all out.
"You and I are sisters, you will definitely help me, right?"
If even Xianxian doesn't help herself.
Then Liu Rong would really be completely helpless.
The Empress Dowager kept her eyes on her Shoukang Palace.
No matter how Liu Rong guards against any loss, he will still be exposed.
Pregnancy thing.
Only she and her personal maid knew.
But the problem now is that if we delay any further, it will be too late.
Others would also notice something strange about her.
This belly is not easy to hide.
Originally, Liu Rong was thinking that the month would be a little younger.
When the time comes, she will find an excuse to leave the palace and give birth to the child secretly.
But the problem was that she had just proposed to leave the palace to pray for the late emperor.
The Empress Dowager refused outright.
It was ironic that she had never seen her deep love for the late emperor before.
I have never seen her praying for blessings.
But now he proposed to leave the palace to pray for blessings.
It was obvious that the drunkard was not interested in drinking.
There is no way out of the palace.
Liu Rong could only lower her posture and look for Xianxian.
I hope that the other party will help me through the difficulties because of our past friendship.
Xianxian couldn't help but ask curiously, "Why do you think I will help you?"
It was obvious that he had ridiculed Liu Rong time and again.
But she still wanted to ask for her help.
It was as if he believed himself to be stupid and was willing to be her scapegoat.
The main reason is that the original body is too gentle.
Let Liu Rong taste the sweetness.
I always think that the two of them have been in a relationship for so many years.
The other party will definitely forgive you.
Liu Rong pleaded with tears in her eyes.
"Ningning, can you please think about the past? How did the two of us end up like this? We were clearly the best of sisters."
"Please, just help me this time!"
It's really pitiful.
Tears fell down.
Liu Rong no longer had the arrogance he once had.
No matter how much resentment I feel in my heart.
But Liu Rong looked very weak.
Xianxian really wanted to know what tricks the other party was playing.
So he pretended to be moved and sighed, then walked forward and gently held Liu Rong's arms.
"Forget it. I'm no longer angry. Just tell me what you want me to do for you."
What I want is for Liu Rong and Liu Yi to kill each other.
Of course, we need to provide good guidance.
I heard Xianxian say this.
A light flashed in Liu Rong's eyes.
She suddenly grabbed her slender hand.
"Come with me to Shoukang Palace, and I will explain everything to you in detail."
Xianxian didn't resist at all.
Just like that, I followed Liu Rong to Shoukang Palace.
As soon as he entered Shoukang Palace, Liu Rong pretended to kneel down.
I thought Xianxian would stop me.
Unexpectedly, Xianxian just took two steps back in surprise.
He just accepted Liu Rong's kneeling gesture.
Liu Rong's expression was a little stiff, but she still pretended to be calm and started acting.
"I'm really at my wit's end, please save me!"
Maybe he came to a place he thought was safe.
She simply refused to pretend anymore.
"Ningning, you haven't had a child in these years. I can give you a child now so that you and Liu Yi can reconcile."
In order to protect the baby in your belly, you also have to keep yourself alive and safe.
Then you need someone to help you.
"child?"
Liu Rong nodded vigorously, "Yes, child, I am pregnant, I can give the child to you."
This operation really surprised Xianxian.
I didn't expect that Liu Rong would set his sights on me.
He wanted to be the scapegoat.
There was just the right amount of shock on her slender face.
"Pregnant? How could you be pregnant?"
"Could it be the late emperor's posthumous child? That would be a great thing. If the Empress Dowager knew about this, she would definitely take extra care of you."
"Rong'er, this is a good thing."
Deliberately act ignorant.
Completely ignoring Liu Rong's embarrassed expression.
Xianxian started her performance on her own.
"It's not the late emperor's posthumous child."
Xianxian loosened her outstretched hand, and then covered her mouth with her hands and widened her eyes, her voice filled with disbelief and sharpness.
"What did you say? It's not your Majesty's child? Then whose child is it?"
"Could it be..."
"No!"
Liu Rong subconsciously denied, "It's not Liu Yi's child either, Ningning, it's the child in my belly."
"It's not the late emperor's child, and certainly not Liu Yi's child."
In order to make Xianxian willing to take over.
Liu Rong flatly denied that the child was Liu Yi's.
Because she knows what the other person cares about most.
If she said the baby in her belly was Liu Yi's.
Then the other party will not help you even more.
There was doubt in Xianxian's eyes, "Really? But how can I trust you?"
There was struggle in Liu Rong's eyes.
Finally, he took out a jade pendant from his arms.
"This is something that belongs to the child's father. You have been with Liu Yi all the time, so you must be able to recognize that this is not Liu Yi's."
The jade pendant looked a little ordinary.
It looks more like something that only palace guards would use.
It is definitely not Liu Yi’s thing.
Xianxian squatted down and said earnestly, "You are really confused. There were rumors about you and Liu Yi before, so why are you secretly pregnant with the guard now?"
"You are now the Queen Mother, and your status is extremely noble. Why would you indulge in lust and get pregnant?"
It was clearly a tone of earnest advice.
But Liu Rong just found it irritating.
Every word and sentence sounds more like sarcasm.
She suppressed her resentment.
"Ningning, you must help me."
Xianxian stared at Liu Rong and asked, "Did you want to force this child on Liu Yi from the beginning? Is that why you stopped me again and again?"
This question really stumped Liu Rong.
She only had sex with Liu Yi.
I know exactly whose child the baby in my belly is.
But in order to be able to use fiber.
She could only nod with a stiff expression.
"Forget it, Rong'er, I'll help you, but you have to promise me that when the baby is born, I will take it away to raise it."
But Liu Rong still hesitated.
There was reluctance on her face.
This is the fruit of her love with Liu Yi, so of course she is reluctant to give it up.
What's more, Yuan Ningning was allowed to take her away.
In her subconscious.
I always feel that Yuan Ningning stole my man away.
Taking away the marriage that belongs to you.
Now I have to hand over my and Liu Yi's child to her.
Doesn't that mean both the man and the child were robbed?
Liu Rong pulled the hem of her skirt with both hands.
There was reluctance in his eyes.
But I have no choice but to go this way.
She bit her lower lip and nodded vigorously, "Yes, as long as you treat him as your own child, he will be your child in the future."
This is just a stopgap measure.
Just wait for me to tell Liu Yi the truth.
He will never let Yuan Ningning take our child away.
A dark light flashed in Liu Rong's eyes.
How could Xianxian not know her little thoughts?
I just don't want to expose it.
"Okay, then I'll help you."
"By the way, I have one more thing to tell you."
Xianxian said with a bitter look on her face, "Liu Yi has a young and beautiful mistress outside."
"what?"
Liu Rong lost all his strength and knelt on the ground, with a look of disbelief on his face.
"He has a mistress outside?"
She was very cautious in the palace, fearing that she would be caught, and she also wanted to give birth to a child for him.
But he has a mistress outside?
"impossible!"
Liu Rong didn't believe it.
But Xianxian sighed, "I didn't believe it at first either, but after seeing Liu Yi hugging that woman with my own eyes, I had to believe it."
"The girl's name is Wanwan. She has been with Liu Yi for some time. She is about sixteen or seventeen years old and very beautiful."
"Liu Yi even bought a house outside and treats her like his beloved baby. My so-called Princess Li is just a decoration."
He was clearly lamenting about himself.
But every word and sentence touched Liu Rong's heart.
She felt her ears buzzing.
Does he really have another woman out there?
So many romantic entanglements, is it just my wishful thinking?
Seeing Liu Rong begin to daze, tears welled up in his eyes.
Xianxian continued, "When beauty fades and love fades, it's just like that. No matter how beautiful your looks and feelings are, you still can't keep his heart."
When beauty fades, love wanes.
It once again deeply hurt Liu Rong's heart.
There was only one thing in her mind: Liu Yi betrayed her.
There was hatred in Liu Rong's eyes, "How could he betray... you?"
"Why not? Aren't all men like this?"
"While he is talking about love, he is having affairs with other women."
Xianxian shook her handkerchief gently and shook her head.
"You are lucky. Qi'er is filial and is the queen mother of a country. The late emperor passed away early, so you won't have any troubles."
Good luck?
I don't care.
Liu Rong covered her chest with her hands and tears welled up in her eyes.
"Why are you crying?"
Faced with Xianxian's concern, Liu Rong wiped away her tears hard.
"I feel uncomfortable and worried during pregnancy. I'm a little tired. Ningning, you go back first."
"Then you should rest well."
I think of Liu Rong’s lost back.
Xianxian sat in the carriage and smiled coldly.
I want the baby in my belly to survive.
She also wanted to be the queen mother in peace and safety.
There is no such thing as a free lunch.
Xianxian directed outside, "Go to Prince Li's Mansion."
"Yes."
Unfortunately, Xianxian arrived at Prince Li's mansion at an inopportune time.
Liu Yi happened to be at Wanwan's place.
When Liu Yi came back in a hurry.
The rouge on his neck had not yet been wiped off.
He had been frowning since he entered the room.
"How did you come?"
Xianxian sat in the seat of honor with a cup of tea in her hand. Even though she saw Liu Yi's neck, she still acted as if she didn't see it.
"Today I went to the palace to pay my respects to the Empress Dowager, and Liu Rong happened to invite me to the Shoukang Palace to sit down."
I heard Xianxian mention Liu Rong.
The impatience on Liu Yi's face disappeared completely.
"Have you seen Rong'er? Is she okay these days? Is there something she wants to talk to you about?"
"She was having a hard time. She looked very haggard due to her pregnancy, and she told me a big secret."
Xianxian looked at Liu Yi mysteriously.
Liu Yi frowned slightly, "What secret?"
"Liu Rong said that her child's biological father is a palace guard, and she wanted me to help her keep the child and bring him back to raise as her own."
Xianxian said meaningfully, "As expected, if there is one, there will be another. Liu Rong can be so unclear with you, how can she be so clear with others?"
Unexpectedly, Liu Yi loudly refuted, "Impossible!"
"How can it be impossible? Liu Rong was in charge of everything in the palace back then."
"You are not in the palace all the time. If you really had an affair with the guard, you probably wouldn't know about it."
Some things just can't stand up to scrutiny, especially since Xianxian's words are well-founded.
"Liu Rong told me this personally, it can't be false."
Xianxian stood up and walked to Liu Yi. "If you still can't bear it, then I really look down on you. The baby in Liu Rong's belly may not be your child."
"But if this child is born, then the people of the world will only put the blame on you. You should think carefully about it."
"I won't allow you to slander Rong'er!"
Liu Yi looked at Xianxian with anger on his face.
It looked like he was going to tear Xianxian into pieces.
But Xianxian was not afraid at all.
She looked at him calmly and said, "Slander? Why would I slander her? Is it because you and her rekindled your old relationship?"
"Don't think too highly of yourself. I am not interested in you at all. Even if you have many women outside, I won't care at all."
"Liu Yi, you can check it carefully, you will always be able to find clues."
She said and left.
As Xianxian expected, the two people who were already suspicious of each other began to investigate each other silently.
Liu Yi found Liu Rong's jade pendant in Shoukang Palace.
Liu Rong found out that Liu Yi had a mistress outside the palace, and also learned that the other party was beautiful and young, not inferior to herself when she was young.
This good show is about to begin.
"Ma'am, someone is looking for you."
Xianxian was standing by the window reading a book. She turned around when she heard the maid's voice.
"who is it?"
"Li Ruanyu, Master Li."
I didn't expect that it was Li Ruanyu who was looking for me.
Xianxian immediately became interested.
"Go and bring him to me."
"Yes."
Lichun on the side spoke with some uneasiness.
"Madam, Mr. Li is a stranger after all. How can we let him come to the backyard so easily? This will affect your reputation."
"Clean reputation? What kind of clean reputation do I have? Because of Liu Rong and Liu Yi, I have long been a laughing stock."
Xianxian pinched the leaves of the potted plant in front of her with her hands, and a hint of sarcasm flashed across her eyes.
"It's the beginning of spring. Life is so hard. We should have some fun."
"My slave understands."
Li Ruanyu was still dressed like a scholar.
Whenever she sees Xianxian, her cheeks turn red.
He stood two meters away, and all he could see was the woman in front of him.
There is a big age difference between the two.
But the woman still has a slim figure, and her fair cheeks carry an indescribable elegance.
She just stood there quietly, but attracted all of Li Ruanyu's attention.
Li Ruanyu gently held the silk handkerchief in her sleeve.
"Thank you Madam for the money, which gave me the opportunity to come to the capital to take the exam. If I pass the exam in the future, I will definitely repay you with a spring of gratitude."
She looked back at him with a delicate smile.
"You promised it yourself, Master Li. I will repay you with a thousand times the gratitude you have shown me."
The sound was like the sound of flowing spring water, which made Li Ruanyu feel half of her body go limp.
He nodded nervously.
"Don't worry, madam."
