Jie teaches the Immortal Sweeping Heaven’s Cultivation of All Heavens

"No."

Liu Shu comforted Zhao Shi, knowing that Zhao Shi would not leave with him.

In Zhao's heart, the capital is prosperous and the Liu family is her home, so she will not choose to leave.

What's more, she has a son.

Between a son and a daughter, Zhao would definitely choose the son.

Liu Shu changed the subject and chatted with Zhao for a long time.

After having lunch at the Liu family, Liu Shu left the Liu Mansion and returned to the Princess's Mansion.

Passing by the garden, I bumped into Li again.

Li spoke to Liu Shu in a sarcastic tone again.

Liu Shu felt sorry for the girl for marrying the wrong person, so he didn't bother with her too much.

Liu Shu's gaze fell on the woman next to Li.

Liu Shu knew this person. She was Princess Leping of Prince Duan's Mansion.

Princess Leping always presents herself as a dignified and graceful person to the outside world, and is very popular among the noble ladies. She is a good candidate for daughter-in-law in the noble ladies' eyes.

There are many families who want to marry Princess Leping, but Prince Duan's Mansion has not agreed to any of their proposals. It is said that Prince Duan's Mansion is optimistic about Wei Wenyuan from the Ningyuan Marquis Mansion.

This is just an external statement. In fact, it should be Princess Leping who likes Wei Wenyuan.

The Marquis' wife was very willing to marry into the Prince Duan's Mansion, but Wei Wenyuan only wanted to marry Liu Qing, which caused a conflict between him and the Marquis' wife.

The Marquis' wife was afraid that her son would do something that would make her regret, so she did not dare to propose marriage to Prince Duan's palace without permission.

Does Princess Leping know that Wei Wenyuan likes Liu Qing and wants to marry her?
If she knew, how would she treat Liu Shu, Liu Qing's sister?
Liu Shu greeted Princess Leping.

Princess Leping returned the greeting with a smile.

Liu Shu and Princess Leping looked into each other's eyes for a second, then looked away.

"I have to go back to help my husband take his medicine, so I won't entertain you, princess. Please forgive me."

Princess Leping: "You go by yourself."

Liu Shu bowed and left with Chunxi.

That one glance confirmed to him that Princess Leping was a woman who did not match her appearance.

This woman is not very kind-hearted. She has no good intentions towards Liu Qing's sister.

I have to be more careful about this person in the future.

She didn't care about Li.

This person is consistent inside and out. He shows any dissatisfaction he has and can be easily seen to want to do bad things.

But Princess Leping is not like that.

She may appear to be friendly with others on the surface, but she may stab them in the back.

Liu Shu returned to the courtyard with Sang Chuwen and entered his room.

On the second day after his wedding, Liu Shu asked Cuiwen and Chunxi to clean up an empty room for him and moved in.

When the princess and her husband found out, they said nothing.

The eldest princess just needs to make sure that Liu Shu and Sang Chuwen have had sex once and can conceive.

After this, it would be better for Liu Shu to sleep with Sang Chuwen, which would allow Sang Chuwen to take better care of his body and at least live longer.

Liu Shu did not go to see Sang Chuwen. The two of them were just partners, and it would be best if they did not interfere with each other.

But occasionally, Sang Chuwen would invite Liu Shu to chat with him.

The two of them had a lot of common topics.

Sang Chuwen discovered that Liu Shu had outstanding literary talent and extraordinary insights, and took him as a close friend.

Liu Shu discovered that Sang Chuwen was different from many men in this world. He was not too chauvinistic and recognized and respected talented women.

This respect made Liu Shu have a better impression of Sang Chuwen.

The two did not develop a romantic relationship, but they did develop a friendship of mutual appreciation.

In this way, a month passed.

The princess sent the imperial physician to check the pulses of Liu Shu and Sang Chuwen. Checking Sang Chuwen's pulse was just a side job, the main purpose was to check Liu Shu's pulse to see if she was pregnant.

The imperial physicians in ancient times were very capable. Not only could they diagnose how many months a woman was pregnant, but in the later stages they could also diagnose whether the pregnant woman was carrying a boy or a girl.

Liu Shu is now more than two months pregnant, and we can’t let the imperial physician diagnose it.

Fortunately, he already had a solution.

He used his innate energy to conceal his pulse, so that the imperial physician only diagnosed that she was one month pregnant.

Sang Chuwen also had a way to fool the imperial physician, making him think that he was still dying.

The imperial physician told the princess the result.

The eldest princess was very happy and sent people to deliver a lot of things to Liu Shu as a reward.

Liu Shu accepted all of them without hesitation.

However, after this day, Liu Shu found that there was something extra in his meals several times.

Liu Shu approached Sang Chuwen and said, "Tell me, who poisoned you?"

Sang Chuwen: "I can handle this person myself."

Liu Shu: "This is not a problem for you to solve by yourself. That person has already attacked me."

Sang Chuwen: “???”

Liu Shu: "I am pregnant."

Sang Chuwen still didn't understand, mainly because he didn't associate the child in Liu Shu's belly with himself.

Originally, this was not his child.

Liu Shu: "That person thought I was pregnant with your child."

Sang Chuwen understood now.

That man wanted to kill him for the title and property, so how could he leave "Sang Chuwen's son" behind and continue to fight with him? !

Sang Chuwen spoke up: "It's Sang Chuwu."

Liu Shu: "It is indeed him."

No wonder Sang Chuwen called Sang Chuwu by his name instead of “Big Brother”.

Liu Shu: "Aren't you brothers? How can you be more cruel than other half-brothers? And he is the eldest son, so he should inherit the title. You have no right of inheritance, so why would he kill you?"

Sang Chuwen sighed and said, "This involves the secrets of the Princess's Mansion."

Now that he had spoken, Sang Chuwen did not hide anything anymore.

"Neither Sang Chuwu nor I are the eldest princess's biological sons."

Liu Heng: "Huh?"

It turned out that the eldest princess was in poor health and could not have children.

So she let another woman give birth to a child for her husband, and then raised the child under her wing as her own son.

To outsiders, Sang Chuwu and Sang Chuwen were the eldest princess's legitimate sons, but in fact, their names were not recorded under the eldest princess's name in the family tree.

In fact, they are all bastards and have no right to inherit the princess's palace.

Unless they are recognized by the eldest princess and their names are recorded under the eldest princess' name in the family tree, they will be considered the eldest princess's sons and legitimate sons and can inherit the princess's mansion and title.

Of the two of them, the eldest princess prefers Sang Chuwen.

Sang Chuwu felt threatened and wanted to get rid of Sang Chuwen.

By that time, he will be the only one left and will naturally be able to inherit the Princess's Mansion.

Liu Heng: "..."

Liu Shu complained: "Isn't he afraid that the princess will find another woman and give her husband a son?"

Sang Chuwen: "This is the key. After Sang Chuwu and I were born, my mother gave my father a sterilization drug. My father can no longer make women give birth to children."

Liu Heng: "..."

Liu Shu gave the eldest princess a thumbs up.

Sang Chuwen: "Mother must have known that Sang Chuwu poisoned me. Just like Sang Chuwu thought, if I die, he will be my only son. Mother has no choice..." (End of this chapter)
