The Dreamer in the Spring Boudoir

Chapter 85: She continues to harm me

If she could confer the title of a god that controlled the birth of heirs, Marquis Moyu would be a very suitable candidate. This person had a full harem, but whether a person got pregnant or not, whether a person would be able to successfully give birth or not, everything was under his control.

Although Mu Shuiqing's and Jinse's pregnancies had seemed like an accident, as well as Wen Wan's miscarriage, Ning Yuxuan hadn't lost anything with the comings and going of these pregnancies. When it was time for those pregnancies to occur, they had occurred. When it was time for them to go, they had gone. Wen Wan had even changed from someone that would show her petty temper from time to time to someone that would listen to everything he said.

While Ji Man didn't believe that Ning Yuxuan was directly responsible for the chain of events that led to all of those miscarriages, she believed that everything had happened under his acquiesce.

However, Ning Yuxuan had never wanted Nie Sangyu to have a child. She knew this just from what happened with this incense. When she had wanted to stop using it, he had said he liked this smell and told her to continue using it.

In the end, what was it made of? Musk and saffron. With Nie Sangyu's previously poor health, combined with the use of the incense, it would have been strange if she had been able to get pregnant.

However, Ning Yuxuan would have never expected that she would get pregnant. The incense had almost done the permanent damage of making Nie Sangyu infertile. He had tried so hard to not touch her during the Southern Trip. But in the end, he had favored her five times. Despite always personally pouring her a cup of contraceptive tea afterward, she had still gotten pregnant.

Was this the will of the Gods? Ji Man smiled. If she secretly gave birth to this baby, would Ning Yuxuan get so angry that he would try to strangle her to death?

However, the other women in the household would probably never think that Marquis Moyu wouldn't want his own child. So, who had tried to conceal her pregnancy from her? Fortunately, she had Nie Sangyu, this high-level teammate. Otherwise, someone would have harmed her without even knowing it.

After taking some pocket money while she was here, Ji Man left Shuiji Rogue Shop, strolled around the streets, and bought a few trinkets. Although this child's future was uncertain, since she had a hand in its conception, she naturally had to do her best in keeping it safe.

She didn't know who else in the household knew this information, or how Muxu and Doctor Li were planning on harming her. After walking around to drive away her worries temporarily, she had to go back to deal with these despicable people.

However, if she was too soft-hearted this time, then she would be wronging Nie Sangyu's title of the most vicious villainess.

After returning to Feiwan Courtyard, Ji Man saw Ning Yuxuan sitting at the table in her room. Muxu's face was slightly red.

Seeing that Nie Sangyu had returned, Muxu's expression changed slightly, and she instinctively took a step back.

Ji Man pretended that she didn't see anything. She smiled and said, "My lord, why did you come here?"

"I came here to see you for a bit. I didn't expect that you wouldn't here." Ning Yuxuan raised his head and looked her. While smiling, he pulled her over to sit down next to him. "The incense in this room is smelling better and better."

Ji Man felt a thud of fear in her heart. She pursed her lips, "The previous scent felt too oppressive, so I had the servants change it to a flowery scented incense. It's made with musk and vanilla. Does it smell better?"

Unlike modern people, who had seem many dramas, the average woman in ancient times didn't know about any side effects from flowers and herbs. They didn't know what musk was used for. Most women thought it was just an ingredient for perfume and incense.
