"Miss, rock sugar pear soup is ready," Dongxu said.

Wei Zhaoning steadied her breathing, stepped forward, took out a small porcelain bottle from her bosom, and poured the powder inside into it.

As soon as Lu Zhufeng entered, he saw the rock sugar pear on the table and his heart skipped a beat.

However, he did not forget about Wei Zhaoning's marriage to the Regent. He sat down and scrutinized Wei Zhaoning.

"What are you doing?"

Wei Zhaoning said calmly, "Didn't the Marquis say that he hasn't had my soup in a long time?"

Lu Zhufeng's anger subsided a little. He thought that power was a good thing. Wei Zhaoning used to look down on him, but now she was cooking soup for him and trying to please him because of power.

He enjoyed it quite a bit, picked up the rock sugar pear, and took a sip.

The taste is still the same as before, just like Wei Zhaoning. She never left; she is ultimately mine.

As he savored the sweet taste, for a moment, he felt as if he had returned to the past. He coughed, and Wei Zhaoning brought him rock sugar pear. He said that these things were too sweet and he did not want to drink them, but Wei Zhaoning forced him to drink them.

The taste is still so sweet and cloying.

He glanced at Wei Zhaoning, but there was no longer any worry or affection in her expression. She sat there like a cold statue, a forced smile on her lips, looking like she was being coerced.

He smashed the empty bowl to pieces and said sternly, "Did I force you to cook this soup? What's with that expression? Are you reluctant?"

Wei Zhaoning paused for a moment, then said, "No, you're overthinking it."

Lu Zhufeng, however, was unconvinced and suddenly grabbed Wei Zhaoning's wrist. "Or is it that you only have Pei Yi in your heart now?"

Wei Zhaoning took a breath. "Lu Zhufeng, I'm back."

Lu Zhufeng, still not satisfied, pushed Wei Zhaoning down, saying, "You think I care about you? How much do you care?"

"You're a piece of trash. Pei Yi has used you to death, hasn't he?"

Wei Zhaoning frowned, thinking that perhaps telling a few truths at this moment would bring him a little closer to Lu Zhufeng, dispel some of his doubts, and make it easier to get information out of him later.

"The Regent and I did not consummate our marriage."

Lu Zhufeng stopped abruptly. "What did you say?"

"You're lying to me, aren't you? Didn't you two already share a bed? Who are you trying to fool? You're still trying to lie to me now?!"

He grabbed Wei Zhaoning by the neck like a madman, choking her until her face turned blue and purple.

Wei Zhaoning squeezed out a few words, words she didn't want to say.

"If you don't believe me, then verify it yourself."

A surge of lust rose within Lu Zhufeng. The realization that Wei Zhaoning had not yet been touched by Pei Yi excited him and made him impatient.

It's like a vicious wolf eyeing a piece of juicy meat, only to have it snatched away by another wolf. When it finally finds the meat again, it's perfectly intact and still its own, allowing it to enjoy it to its heart's content.

A sense of superiority welled up within him, a sense of victory that he could outshine the Regent by consummating his marriage with Wei Zhaoning today. The Regent was nothing special after all.

He couldn't wait to tear off Wei Zhaoning's outer robe, hoping to swallow this piece of fat whole, so that it would become one with him and never be taken away by anyone else.

Only what becomes yours can be taken away by others.

To his surprise, Wei Zhaoning did not resist or struggle; she simply waited for him to taste her.

A thought suddenly occurred to him: Was Wei Zhaoning not having anything happen with the Regent because she wanted to remain faithful to him?

She was still being stubborn; all she did before was to make herself feel insecure and to make herself fall in love with her again.

She still loves him after all. How could she not? After so many years of feelings, even someone like him can't forget. How could Wei Zhaoning forget?

"Ningning, you won."

Wei Zhaoning: "?"

Lu Zhufeng didn't continue. What he wanted to say was that Wei Zhaoning had won by using this method to make him change his mind.

Suddenly, he felt his body go limp and kissed Wei Zhaoning's lips.

"Ningning, Ningning..."

Seeing that he was out of his mind, Wei Zhaoning pulled away, slowly put on her clothes, and looked at Lu Zhufeng with disgust.

The medicine took effect.

Lu Zhufeng was hugging a pillow, his eyes were unfocused, his face was flushed, and he was making some indecent gestures.

"Ningning, you still love me, don't you?"

"Your body is so soft. You really haven't been slept with by the Regent. You're still clean. After tonight, you belong to me completely."

"Call me louder, call me husband."

This drug can induce hallucinations, and at this moment, Lu Zhufeng could only see Wei Zhaoning, whose eyes were filled with spring water, and he fell into a sea of ​​desire with her.

Lu Zhufeng spewed out vulgar and obscene words one after another, making Wei Zhaoning feel extremely disgusted. She wanted to find a wad of cotton to plug her ears.

She closed the bed curtains, not wanting to see anything disgusting.

He then took out a handkerchief from his pocket, pricked his finger with a silver needle, and dripped blood onto the handkerchief.

A deafening roar came from outside. Wei Zhaoning recognized it as Wei Jiaruo's voice; she had given birth.

She gently opened the door, and Dongxu stood outside, shaking her head and saying, "She still has the energy to curse the princess, she keeps cursing, it's disgusting."

Wei Zhaoning overheard a few more words: "Wei Zhaoning, you shameless slut! You seduced my husband while I was giving birth! Shameless, despicable, rotten slut!"

"I won't let you get away with this!"

Then came Liu Xiang's voice, "Madam, stop talking! Save your energy! It's showing itself! Give it your all!"

"Why shouldn't I speak up! The young prince is about to be born! Let's see how she tries to fight me!"

"The Marquis treated me like this because of her! What have I done wrong! What's wrong with me loving the Marquis?!"

She smiled calmly. It was time for her to experience what it was like to have her home raided. How could she be allowed to have an easy time at such a crucial moment?

When we do things, we can always find a reasonable excuse, but we don't realize that we are hurting others. Today, let's change the situation and let her experience it for herself.

She came to her senses and said to Dongxu, "From now on, just call me Miss, as before. I am no longer the Regent's Consort."

Dongxu pursed her lips, hesitated, and finally agreed.

And at this moment, in the Regent's Palace.

Pei Yi made a point of finishing up his business today so he could go back early to be with Wei Zhaoning.

"Yun Ce, go to the restaurant and make a reservation. Tell them to make roast goose, and one of each of their other specialty dishes. Be quick about it."

Yun Ce laughed and said, "Your Highness acted so quickly today, it turns out it was for the sake of the Princess Consort."

"The princess will be very happy."

Pei Yi smiled. Just thinking about seeing Wei Zhaoning as soon as he got back made everything else unimportant, and he didn't feel tired at all.

He dismounted from the carriage, mounted his horse, and wanted to return to the palace as quickly as possible. He rode forward, his eyes filled with longing.
