The Queen Doesn't Want to Die
63. News In The Capital
The next day news of Empress Rui's pregnancy spread throughout the capital and into the palace. This once again made the capital an uproar. Something related to the members of the royal family will always be an interesting thing to talk about.
Lately the news in the capital is still always related to Pei Zhang Xi and Lu Jing Yu starting from their scandal found in the same room at a banquet at the prime minister Lu's residence pei Zhang Xi married Lu Jing Yu by force.
Their early married life was also always interesting to talk about where everyone said that Lu Jing Yu had not gained Pei Zhang Xi's affection since their marriage.
But not long after, news only began to spread in the capital. Back then everyone knew that Pei Zhang Xi was going to the border to lead an army against the troops from the Eastern Chu kingdom who were trying to take control of so on their territory. It was then that another news appeared, that the rumored Lu Jing Yu also went outside the city.
Of course no one was talking about that Lu Jing Yu actually went to the border to catch up and help Pei Zhang Xi. Who would believe such news? At that time compared to believing the news that Lu Jing Yu went to the border to help Pei Zhang Xi, the news that a chicken laid a golden egg would be more reliable.
Lu Jing Yu's name that had been bad from the beginning got worse with the news from time to time. Moreover, Lu Jing Yu who used to roam the capital had never reappeared before the public. Increasingly made everyone convinced that Lu Jing Yu went outside the city to seek pleasure while Pei Zhang Xi was not at the residence.
Without knowing the truth, the idea of them getting divorced and having to get divorced starts to heat up.
Who would have thought the next plot would never have happened. When the news of Pei Zhang Xi's army's victory reached the capital, news of no less stirring soon spread. The news mentioned that the victory of their troops this time was none other than Lu Jing Yu's great help which had contributed directly or indirectly in the war. Lu Jing Yu helped the health workers help in taking care of the wounded soldiers and also gave an idea in planning the war strategy.
Not only that, but more exciting news is happening. The news of Lu Jing Yu's heroism in Luhao's village even reached the capital before they even saw Lu Jing Yu's face that had been missing for a month.
They certainly don't want to believe it. But as more and more people came from outside the area especially those close to the border who were talking about Lu Jing Yu's heroism, they started to falter a little in believing their previous beliefs.
Other news also broke. That is, Pei Zhang Xi's entourage came along with Eastern Chu's daughter who was the losing side of the war and had given their daughter to become a concubine as an apology. They all assumed that it was likely that princess Chu would enter the residence of King Rui. So that once again Lu Jing Yu became the aggrieved party.
It was time for Pei Zhang Xi's entourage to return to the capital with victory. They still thought that only Princess Eastern Chu came home with Pei Zhang Xi and not Lu Jing Yu. No one had ever expected that Pei Zhang Xi was inside the same carriage and even initiatively helped him down personally. More to everyone's surprise, that person was not the Eastern Chu princess they had thought of from the start but rather Lu Jing Yu. It was also revealed that Lu Jing Yu had indeed gone to the border.
The gifts brought from the border were also very numerous. There were about ten carriages lined up behind Pei Zhang Xi's carriage. But everyone was again shocked when five of the train troupe turned out to be separated and addressed the residence of King Rui because it was known that all the gifts came from the villagers of Luhao and the surrounding areas they gave to Lu Jing Yu as a gift.
Not yet gone everyone's discussion. The news that Pei Zhang Xi refused to make Eastern Chu's daughter part concubine on the grounds that Lu Jing Yu was pregnant.
Getting pregnant?
Everyone's heads nearly exploded in shock at the shocking news. Didn't the last word mention that the relationship between the two of them is not very good and Pei Zhang Xi who hates Lu Jing Yu. How can a plot develop into this?
The news from the residence of King Rui really spoiled all the gossip lovers. This time the news of Empress Rui's pregnancy was even more of the hottest talk of all time.
"really so. Either this is called luck or misfortune. The Eastern Chu princess was so obedient to her father that she refused to enter the other king's residence and was willing to wait. I believe in the previous life princess Chu Timur did so much darma that even today the gods are helping her."
"You know how else. Empress Rui was already basically useless. Maybe it was because of her stupidity that she ended up having problems with her pregnancy."
"really. It is possible that he has been forbidden to eat abstinence for pregnant people but still eat it. His stubbornness in the capital no one could match him."
No one said that the accident could have been created by someone.
Hearing all the gossip in the capital, the entire people in the residence of King Rui clenched their hands. If not for the order that they should be silent no matter what, they would have slapped all the mouths of those who spoke haphazardly. Lu Jing Yu was their current idol.
"How are you in the capital?" Lu Jing Yu casually asked Xiao Ben as she ate a piece of apple.
"The news outside is terrible Empress. You better not listen to it."
"All right." Lu Jing Yu simply responded with a smile. They've been working fast. So how would he let their hard work go to waste?
The news was part of Lu Jing Yu's plan. But it was not the residence of King Rui who spread it. Except Wei Qian's servant nian. By spreading the word about the problems that Lu Jing Yu's pregnancy was experiencing, he hoped that the people would immediately pressure Pei Zhang Xi to bring Wei Qian Nian into his residence.
If Wei Qian Nian found out that her plan was used by Lu Jing Yu to reveal it to the surface. What would he think?
