Chapter 4 Everything is still too late

It was dark at night, and the back garden was silent, except for the occasional chirping of insects.

Lan Ying led Lu Wan all the way there, and when they arrived at a rockery pile of rocks, the three of them slowed down and approached slowly.

In order to deceive others, Li Rui asked Yu An to stay outside the guest room where guests rested, making it appear that he was resting in the guest room due to drunkenness.

Who would have thought that King Rui, who was a noble man and had been scolding King Yi for his indiscretion during the day, was now having an affair with Shen Yuan in a narrow and dank rockery cave.

The two of them were making a lot of noise. Li Rui took advantage of the wine and knew that everyone was at the banquet in the front hall and no one was here, so he indulged himself very much.

As for Shen Yuan, since Li Rui entered into an engagement with Lu Wan, whom she despised the most, she has been driven crazy by jealousy. In addition, due to the last dispute, she was fined and grounded. She vowed to take revenge on Lu Wan, so she worked hard. He tried to please Li Rui, his voice getting louder and louder.

The two little maids Lan Cao and Lan Ying were already blushing, ashamed and hateful, but Lu Wan was very calm, with no trace of emotion on her face.

She heard Shen Yuan asking Li Rui with a trembling voice: "Your Highness, when will you marry me? My body has been given to you a long time ago..."

Li Rui: "Didn't I agree that I will ask my cousin for you once the betrothal gift is received?"

After that, he added: "You should stay at ease during this period and don't provoke her."

Shen Yuan suddenly felt aggrieved.

The last time Lu Wan fell, she obviously fell down the steps by herself and had nothing to do with her.

But at that time, she was the only one on the porch. Lu Wan pointed at her and said that she was the one who pushed him. She couldn't explain anything and was fined with a month's grounding for no reason. Because of this, she couldn't see Li Rui for a long time.

She was afraid that Li Rui's novelty period for her would be over and he would forget about her, so she took the risk to ask him to come to the garden for a tryst tonight.

Shen Yuan was very smart and did not want to complain about Li Rui's injustice at this time. She only regretted: "My cousin, although she is said to be from the Zhenguo Duke's palace, she... is really not worthy of His Highness. Let her be Princess Rui. I have truly wronged Your Highness."

Shen Yuan's words reminded Li Rui of everyone's laughter at Lu Wan. How could he not hear Shen Yuan's thoughts?

His face darkened, and he said coldly: "As long as she comes from the Zhenguo Palace, even if she is blind and lame, I will marry her! I only blame you for not having a good family background and not being a girl from the Zhenguo Palace."

Shen Yuan's peach-colored cheeks instantly turned white.

"But don't worry, I will definitely welcome you in. When I succeed to the throne, I will find a way to depose her. At that time, I will welcome you as the master of the central palace..."

With these words, Shen Yuan was filled with strength, completely lowered her body, and lay down in front of him to serve him...

On the way back, the two maids were so angry that they became mute. Lu Wan smiled and said, "Why, were you scared?"

Lancao was timid and couldn't speak for a long time with trembling lips. She only looked at Lu Wan worriedly, fearing that she wouldn't be able to bear such betrayal and blow.

Lan Ying was so angry that she almost vomited blood: "Just now we should have caught the rapist on the spot and called everyone in the house to see the shamelessness of these two bitches. Miss, how can you hold back?"

From the beginning to the end, no matter how passionate the two people were or how they plotted against her, Lu Wan remained calm and terrifyingly calm.

She laughed sarcastically: "Shen Yuan wishes that everyone in the world would know that she is Prince Rui's wife, so that he can force Li Rui to marry her. And Li Ruigui is the prince, do you think that just for a cousin, your father and grandmother will do it for you?" Am I going to take the lead?"

As long as Li Rui is willing to recognize Shen Yuan, her father and grandmother will not stand up for her, but will only rush to send Shen Yuan to Prince Rui's bed.

In her previous life, after learning that Shen Yuan was pregnant with Li Rui's child, she also went to her father and grandmother and begged them to seek justice for her.

But what happened in the end?

She was just a pawn to bind the interests of Prince Rui and the Zhenguo Palace, but Shen Yuan and the child in her belly tied the relationship between the Zhenguo Palace and Prince Rui even more firmly, and both parties were happy Seeing the success, she was the only one who was turned into an outcast...

The night wind blew against his face, and Lu Wan narrowed his eyes slightly——

According to previous calculations, at this time, Shen Yuan was already pregnant with Li Rui's child.

But from the conversation between the two just now, we know that Shen Yuan didn't know that she was pregnant at this time.
