Chapter 147 Finding a New Father for the Child in Her Womb
Qin Wan's heart skipped a beat; it seemed she had never really understood him.
"Okay, I believe you, but you have to promise me that nothing will happen before we get married!"
"I promise you, for your sake, I will protect myself!"
Xiao Jingyan couldn't help himself and pulled Qin Wan into his arms. He was very happy that she was concerned about his safety.
Throughout his life, no one has ever worried about his future, not even his mother.
Qin Wan is the first person who wants him to be safe, and he will definitely keep his word.
Xiao Jingyan held Qin Wan very tightly, so tightly that she could hardly breathe.
She could feel his heartbeat through his clothes; it was a rapid, pounding beat, which made Qin Wan feel a little guilty.
She wanted him to be safe until the wedding, and she wanted to use this marriage to leave the Marquis's mansion, and even use it to leave him afterwards.
His enthusiasm was so overwhelming that Qin Wan couldn't handle it.
Qin Wan pushed away his embrace.
"Your Highness, I made you a belt a few days ago, why don't you try it on!" Qin Wan changed the subject, not wanting to continue the conversation.
Xiao Jingyan was still overjoyed, showing her his best side.
......
In the evening, inside a small clinic in a deep alley in the west of the city.
"Doctor, have you looked closely? My wife is really pregnant?"
"It's absolutely true, congratulations, Madam, you are indeed pregnant!"
Upon hearing the doctor's words, Su Yan'er, hidden beneath her veil, turned deathly pale; her worst fears had come true.
Wan Shuang looked delighted. "Congratulations, Madam! Congratulations, Madam! Young Master will be overjoyed when he finds out!"
As he spoke, he took out some loose silver from his sleeve and handed it to the doctor.
"The baby in your womb is not yet fully developed, so please keep this a secret and do not tell anyone who asks!"
The doctor knew this was related to the power struggles within the inner quarters, and having taken the money, he naturally wouldn't say anything.
"Yes, I understand!"
Upon leaving the clinic, Wan Shuang's cheerful demeanor vanished, and her expression instantly darkened.
I was just pretending earlier so as not to arouse suspicion.
She never expected that her mistress was actually pregnant.
Back to the west wing.
Su Yan'er dismissed all the servants, leaving only Cuizhu by her side.
This child came at the worst possible time. If others find out, it might ruin everything for her. She can't keep him.
"Cuizhu, go and inquire tomorrow if there's any way to abort this child!" Su Yan'er had made up her mind; she couldn't let the child be a burden to her.
Looking at Su Yan'er's worried face, Cuizhu was also very worried.
"Miss, this servant..."
Hearing Cuizhu's hesitant voice, Su Yan'er looked up at her and said, "Speak your mind!"
Cuizhu approached Su Yan'er and whispered, "Miss, I think this child has arrived at just the right time!"
Su Yan'er frowned, not understanding what Cui Zhu meant, and sat up straight to listen to her continue.
"Miss, you don't know, many ladies in Fengdu City are troubled by their inability to conceive. They have tried countless folk remedies and prayed to countless Buddhas, but nothing has worked. Miss, you have succeeded in conceiving. This is a blessing from heaven!"
“Miss is a virgin now. Miss knows that the child’s father is the second young master, but outsiders do not know this. Miss can choose another father for this child!”
Upon hearing this, Su Yan'er's eyes lit up, as if she understood something. The child was in her belly, but she was a virgin. No one would doubt that a woman who had never lost her virginity was pregnant.
If she chooses one person to consummate her marriage, then the child belongs to that person.
She didn't need to worry about being exposed, after all, the man knew what it felt like to deflower someone during sex, and he wouldn't doubt the child's identity.
She just needs to hurry.
"Cuizhu, is this method really feasible?" Su Yan'er's heart was pounding; she desperately needed someone's encouragement.
Cuizhu knew that she and Su Yan'er were now in the same boat; only if her mistress recovered could she recover.
“Miss, I think this method is feasible!” Cuizhu raised her lips, revealing a wicked smile.
"Moreover, I have already chosen someone for you, Miss!"
Su Yan'er swallowed hard. She already had someone in mind, but she still looked at Cui Zhu with wide eyes to hear her thoughts.
Cuizhu continued, "Although Miss's background is not as good as Fourth Miss's, she is no worse than Fourth Miss in other aspects. Fourth Miss was able to marry a prince, so why can't Miss?"
"Among the princes at present, only the Fourth Prince is most likely to take charge of the Eastern Palace. Moreover, Miss Shen is injured and cannot have children. If Miss can approach the Fourth Prince, then the child in Miss's belly will be the grandson of the emperor."
"Even if Miss Shen is hostile to Miss, with the imperial grandson in hand, no one would dare to make things difficult for Miss. Even if Miss is not the principal wife, Miss's child is the eldest son of the fourth prince."
"If the Fourth Prince ascends the throne, then this child will be the Crown Prince, and the future young lady may become the Empress Dowager, a position even higher than the Empress..."
Su Yan'er was also thinking about Xiao Jingyu, but she didn't think that far ahead.
Hearing what Cuizhu said, Su Yan'er was very tempted.
In that case, what will Fourth Sister have to compare with her? When Fourth Sister sees her, she will have to bow and greet her.
Just thinking about it made Su Yan'er burst out laughing.
To ensure this matter goes smoothly, we need to plan carefully and act quickly.
......
Wanyue Courtyard.
"What did you say? Su Yan'er is pregnant?" Qin Wan couldn't believe that Su Yan'er's hidden secret was this.
Nian Qi nodded and said, "I heard it with my own ears. They want to find a new father for this child. After discussing it for a long time, they chose the Fourth Prince!"
what?
Let Xiao Jingyu be the child's father?
Qin Wan was completely shocked; this explosive news was hard for her to accept.
She even admired Su Yan'er somewhat.
After she became pregnant while having an affair with Qin Lang, she had someone restore her virginity and then approached Xiao Jingyu, making him a father unexpectedly.
All of this is something that ordinary people could not have imagined.
In this way, she could guarantee that she would conceive a grandson of the emperor.
Seeing Qin Wan's surprised expression, Nian Qi also found it unbelievable when she first heard it.
"Miss, should we expose this?"
"Not urgent!"
Revealing this now would only please Han Shu, and for the sake of her grandson, she wouldn't blame Su Yan'er. To maximize the benefits of this matter, they would have to wait.
Only when everything proceeds according to Su Yan'er's plan, and when everyone believes that this child is the emperor's grandson, can she deliver a fatal blow to everyone.
"We don't need to worry about this anymore. Just proceed according to Su Yan'er's plan!"
Nianqi tilted her head, as if she understood, yet also as if she didn't.
"Yes!"
......
Two days later.
Today was the day Consort Yan invited Qin Wan to attend the flower viewing banquet, so Qin Wan got up very early and dressed up carefully.
But she wasn't the only one who got up early.
"Miss, Miss Yan'er has arrived!" a maid announced from outside the door.
This time, Qin Wan didn't send her back as she usually did, but instead invited her in.
"Sister Yan'er, what brings you here?" Qin Wan asked with a smile.
Su Yan'er twisted her handkerchief, finding it difficult to speak.
"Fourth Sister, I heard you are going to the palace today to attend the flower viewing banquet. Yan'er...would you like to go with me?"
"it is good!"
