My husband, who abandoned his father and kept his son, actually wants me to be his concubine.

Chapter 149 Seeking to be Divorced
When the Prince and his wife learned that Lu Jinshi was coming, they rushed to the hall to see him as soon as they woke up, disregarding their disheveled appearance and improper hairstyle.

When Princess An saw Lu Jin, her face was covered in tears. She asked, "Miaomiao, what's wrong?"

Why did you leave the palace in the middle of the night?

Prince An looked at a piece of paper next to Lu Jinshi, picked it up and read it, saying, "A letter of divorce? His Highness the Crown Prince actually divorced you? How could he divorce you? Don't be afraid, your uncle will do anything to get justice for you, even if it means giving up the throne."

Nestled in Princess An's arms, Lu Jinshi sobbed softly, "No, it's not... it's not that His Highness the Crown Prince divorced me. His Highness took a knife for me this afternoon and has been unconscious and running a high fever ever since. The imperial physician says he's dying..."

"Ah!" Princess An covered her lips with her hand and exclaimed, "How could this be?"

Prince An was also startled, but he comforted Lu Jinshi, saying, "His Highness the Crown Prince will surely be blessed by Heaven and there will be no major problems."

"Then what's the deal with this letter of divorce?"

With tears welling in her eyes, Lu Jinshi looked at Prince An and Princess An and said, "I... I am cursed to bring misfortune to my husbands. My first fiancé died because of me. My second fiancé also fell seriously ill and was on the verge of death shortly after our engagement. And now Rong Yi is like this..."

Princess An stroked Lu Jinshi's head and said, "Poor Miaomiao, poor child..."

Prince An said, "This matter is just a coincidence. How can you blame your fate of bringing misfortune to your husband? You and His Highness have been married for so long. If you were truly destined to bring misfortune to your husband, you would have been cursed long ago."

Lu Jinshi said in a low voice, "Uncle, I want Rong Yi to live, so I am asking to be divorced. I don't want Rong Yi to die because of me."

Princess An sighed deeply and said, "My dear, go and rest with your aunt first. You are pregnant. Go and rest well in the courtyard where your mother used to live. I believe His Highness the Crown Prince will be blessed and survive this ordeal."

Lu Jinshi followed the Prince An's mansion to the courtyard. She was extremely tired, and the pain in her abdomen was also making her a little scared.

Lu Jinshi forced herself to rest. She could no longer bring Zhang'er out of the palace; she had to protect the child in her womb.

Lu Jinshi lay on the bed until dawn, his pillow soaked with tears.
-
In the East Palace.

Emperor Huiyuan and Empress Rong stayed by Rong Yi's side without leaving him for a moment.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, the military doctor has arrived."

Emperor Huiyuan said, "Quickly let them in."

The two who entered bowed to Emperor Huiyuan and Empress Rong and said, "Your subject Bai Lian greets Your Majesty."

"This humble woman, Bai Banxia, ​​greets Your Majesty and Your Majesty the Empress."

Emperor Huiyuan looked at the man and woman kneeling on the ground and said, "You are the military doctors who healed the mistress's knife wound? Why is there a woman with you?"

Bai Lian said in a trembling voice, "Your Majesty, this is my younger sister. She also learned medicine from my father since she was a child. She is better at treating external injuries than I am, so I dared to bring my sister to the palace."

Empress Rong said, "Whether it's a boy or a girl, you two quickly examine His Highness the Crown Prince. If you heal him, there will be a generous reward!"

Bai Banxia got up and went to the nanmu bed. When Banxia saw the face of the man lying there, she was surprised. The new crown prince of Dasheng was actually a peerless beauty.

After seeing Rong Yi's injuries, Bai Banxia, ​​without bothering to admire the Crown Prince's appearance, had wine brought and Rong Yi's clothes removed.

Bai Banxia took out a porcelain bottle from the medicine box she had brought and poured the red liquid inside onto Rong Yi's wound.

He poured the wine into a wooden basin and took a handkerchief to wipe Rong Yi's limbs.

Empress Rong looked at Bai Banxia with curiosity, but she didn't really trust Bai Banxia. However, she had no other choice but to try anything.

Lu Jinshi spent the night in the Prince An's mansion. Even as dawn broke outside, she remained lying on her bed. Recalling her past with Rong Yi, she now had only one thought: to keep Rong Yi alive.

"cousin."

Lu Jinshi saw that the door was opened a crack, and Lu Yiran's voice came from outside the door.

When Lu Yiran saw that Lu Jinshi was awake, she said, "Cousin, you're awake? Shall I have the maid bring some food over?"

“Okay,” Lu Jinshi replied.

Lu Jinshi reached out and touched her lower abdomen. Even though she had no appetite, she had to force herself to eat.

Lu Yiran let the maid come in to help Lu Jinshi wash up. After watching Lu Jinshi force herself to eat breakfast and go inside, she said, "Cousin, this morning my sister-in-law went to the East Palace to visit His Highness."

It is said that the military doctor who treated the Crown Prince's stepmother has also entered the Eastern Palace. Last night, under the care of the military doctor Banxia, ​​His Highness the Crown Prince, although still unconscious, no longer has a persistent high fever.

Lu Jinshi breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this, and said in a hoarse voice, "Then it seems that if I divorce him, I really won't bring him bad luck anymore..."

"Cousin, when did you start believing such things? How could you be a jinx? It's clearly the Third Prince who's the culprit; he's the murderer. What does that have to do with you being a jinx?"

Lu Jinshi said, "I didn't believe these things in the past, but this time I really have no choice but to believe them."

If it were the Lu Jinshi of the past, she would never have believed such absurd claims about being a jinx to her husband.

This time, however, she didn't want to owe Rong Yi her life. As long as she could save Rong Yi's life, she would try any method...

She believed the words of the man who had brought her misfortune.

"Seventh sister-in-law?"

Lu Jinshi heard Princess Yongjia's voice coming from outside the door.

Lu Jinshi then said, "Your Highness, I am no longer the wife of the Crown Prince. Please still call me Jinshi."

Princess Yongjia entered the room, her hand supporting her abdomen; her belly, nearly seven months along, was already quite noticeable.

Princess Yongjia sat down next to Lu Jinshi and said, "Alas, Jinshi, Father Emperor is just too concerned about Seventh Brother, so he temporarily believes in these superstitious and supernatural sayings. After Seventh Brother wakes up, you will still be able to become the Crown Princess again."

Lu Jinshi shook her head and said, "I will no longer be the Crown Princess after he wakes up."

Princess Yongjia grasped Lu Jinshi's hand and said, "How come you've started to believe this kind of thing? Don't worry, I went to the palace this morning, and the imperial physicians all said that as long as the fever goes down, there will be no more danger to his life. You can rest assured."

Lu Jinshi breathed a sigh of relief and said, "That's good. Princess, have you seen Zhang'er? How is Zhang'er?"

Princess Yongjia said, "Zhang'er is also very good, very well-behaved."

Lu Jinshi clenched her hands. As she left the East Palace, she was most reluctant to part with her Zhang'er.

Princess Yongjia and Lu Yiran exchanged a glance, unsure how to persuade Lu Jinshi. All they could do was stay by Lu Jinshi's side and talk to her.

After having breakfast, Lu Jinshi was so tired that he fell asleep while talking. Perhaps because he hadn't slept all night, he was exhausted.
