Transmigrated As My Former Uncle's Sweetheart

Lu Liangwei shook her head. “Nothing happened.”

Lu Tingchen paused in the middle of taking food and said, “I heard that the Noble Consort got banished to the Cold Palace. What happened at that time?”

Lu Liangwei glanced at him. She knew that her brother was not a gossiping person. He was probably trying to find out what happened to her without being obvious.

“Inappropriate discussion of state affairs,” Lu Liangwei replied briefly.

Lu Tingchen was surprised. “No way.”

Recalling what had happened at that time, Lu Liangwei frowned and said, “Actually, the Noble Consort didn’t say much. She only commented that the Emperor had a lot of work to do running the kingdom, then His Majesty flew into a rage and banished her to the Cold Palace.” She omitted the fact that the Noble Consort had tried to kill her as she did not want her family worrying about it.

Lu Tingchen furrowed his brow, feeling that something was wrong.

Although the Noble Consort had spoken to the Emperor too presumptuously and could be accused of overruling him, the Emperor would not banish her to the Cold Palace right away for such a mistake.

However, not many knew about what exactly had happened, probably because the Emperor had ordered to cover up the news. He only knew that the Noble Consort had been banished to the Cold Palace.

Worried that he would overthink, Lu Liangwei hurriedly changed the subject. “Big Bro, Lu Yunshuang’s pregnant.”

Lu Tingchen was uninterested. “Oh.”

Lu Liangwei was already used to his indifference toward Lu Yunshuang, but at this moment, she had an interest in gossip. “It’s a pity that her body’s weak because of her depression. She might not be able to keep this child.”

Only then did Lu Tingchen glance up at her and warned, “She’s a cunning person. You’d better avoid getting close to her.”

Lu Liangwei nodded. “I know.”

Not long after, Zhu Yu came back with two cups of osmanthus tea.

Lu Tingchen’s mouth twitched, but he still picked his cup up, took a sip, and put it back down with a disgusted expression.

Seeing this, Lu Liangwei and Zhu Yu glanced at each other, then both of them laughed heartily.

In that instant, Lu Tingchen felt like beating them up.

The alcoholic in him had awakened, but he could only look at the wine on the table but not drink it. It was an extremely tormenting feeling.

After reluctantly finishing his cup of osmanthus tea, he quickly stood up. “I’ve finished my tea, so I’m going back to sleep now. You should rest earlier too, you still have to get up early tomorrow.”

Lu Liangwei replied with a smile, “I know, you as well.”

After walking him to the door, she said teasingly, “Big Bro, you’re now at a hot-blooded age, but you don’t even have a single woman beside you. I’m doing this for your own good. You’re full of inner heat, and floral tea is perfect for reducing your inner heat in case you lose your cool and do something irreparable.”

Lu Tingchen stumbled and almost fell off the steps.

Coming back to his senses, he turned his head and stared at Lu Liangwei in disbelief.

This girl was really shameless!

He growled through his teeth, “Lu Liangwei, you…”

Lu Liangwei pulled a face, and seeing that he was about to turn around and give her a good beating, she hurriedly slammed the door of her room shut.

Bam!

Lu Tingchen, “…”

The Eastern Palace.

It was already late at night when Long Chi came out of Lu Yunshuang’s room feeling tired.

Since coming back in the morning until now, Lu Yunshuang had been crying non-stop and saying that she did not believe the imperial physician’s diagnosis, so he had to summon another physician from outside to take her pulse.

However, the physician’s conclusion was the same as Imperial Physician Wu’s.

Lu Yunshuang was indeed pregnant, but because of her depression, her body was weak and showed signs of miscarriage.

He could tell that the physician had held back on his words, but the actual result might be worse.

It was an instant fall from cloud nine for him.
