Chapter 536: Unmediated Adultery
As soon as these words were spoken, an eerie silence fell all around.
Many people turned their heads and looked at Feng Bochang, and even more people's eyes were wandering back and forth between Feng Bochang and Shen Jingzhen.
Xiao Mengxi obviously didn't expect such an episode and couldn't help but raise her eyebrows.
"What did you say?"
The guard let go of Shen Jingzhen's arm and stepped aside.
Shen Jingzhen's eyes flushed, her throat tightened, and she choked and said, "Your servant... Your servant is pregnant with Lord Feng's child..."
Feng Bochang clenched his fingers hanging by his side and wanted to say something, but things happened too suddenly and he didn't know what to do.
Xiao Mengxi smiled and said, "So, you and Deputy Commander Feng Du had an affair without a matchmaker and got pregnant?"
Shen Jingzhen was soaking wet. She said to Xiao Mengxi, "Princess, I really don't know what the prince is, and I have never thought of seducing him! I really don't know why I ended up here..."
Shen Jingzhen felt really wronged. She really didn't know who wanted to murder her like this.
At this moment, Xiao Rui slowly woke up.
Xiao Mengxi was not gentle with her own son. If the person had not been temporarily replaced by Shen Jingzhen from Shen Shuyi, she would have kept Xiao Rui awake.
But if it were a fool like Shen Jingzhen, she would be afraid of tarnishing her son's reputation.
"Mom! Hehe, there are so many people!"
After saying that, Xiao Rui's sight fell on Shen Jingzhen lying on the ground. He jumped around her and clapped his hands.
"A drowned rat! A drowned rat! Hahaha, a drowned rat is so fun!"
Xiao Mengxi looked at Xiao Rui and waved: "Rui'er, tell me, do you know this Miss Shen? Do you like her?"
Xiao Rui made an exaggerated expression and drooled.
"I don't like it! Ugly! Soaked to the skin!"
After saying that, Xiao Rui turned around and picked up an incense burner and poured all the ashes in it onto Shen Jingzhen.
Shen Jingzhen's body was already covered in water stains, and once the incense ash touched her, she immediately looked like she was covered in mud.
Shen Jingzhen's eyes were red and she bit her lips tightly.
Xiao Rui happily threw the incense burner out, almost hitting the spectators nearby.
"Beggar's chicken! Beggar's chicken! Hahahaha, I want to eat beggar's chicken!!!"
"Jinxiu! Jinxiu, quickly put my beggar chicken in the cage!"
Xiao Rui ran and shouted, knocking people away and then ran away.
Jinxiu and other servants who were guarding Xiao Rui immediately followed, lifting their skirts.
"Prince, wait for us!"
After Xiao Rui left, the room returned to silence.
Xiao Mengxi didn't think that Xiao Rui was embarrassed for her. After all, she had been used to it for so many years.
Her eyes fell on Shen Jingzhen again, and she sneered, "Rui'er seems to look down on Miss Shen."
Shen Jingzhen was stunned for a moment, then she reacted and quickly responded, "I am not worthy of the prince! Everything I said is true, I was indeed framed! Please give me justice, my lady!"
Xiao Mengxi pulled the corner of her lip and asked coldly: "Has Deputy Commander Feng Du come today?"
Feng Bochang was suddenly called by name, and he stepped forward: "I pay my respects to the princess."
"Miss Shen said she is pregnant with your child. Is this true?"
Feng Bochang's throat tightened and he stared at the gazes around him. He felt that he didn't know whether to acknowledge or not.
Under the watchful eyes of the public, he naturally didn't want to recognize a fickle woman like Shen Jingzhen.
But Shen Jingzhen had been with him for some time, and if he pushed her too far, he was afraid that she would bite him.
Xiao Mengxi sneered: "Why? Feng Bochang, is this question difficult to answer?"
Shen Jingzhen stared at Feng Bochang with tears in her eyes, full of hope: "Brother Feng, say something! Say something!"
Princess Guining has always been domineering. If she thought that I was trying to seduce Xiao Rui, she would probably really kill me!
"Feng Bochang! Do you have any conscience? I'm pregnant with your child, can you please speak like a man?" Shen Jingzhen was really anxious.
She had been suppressing her feelings for too long. Now that her reputation was ruined and Princess Guining was going to hate her, she might as well take this opportunity to make this matter public.
She was not stupid, and she could sense Feng Bochang's delay. She was already pregnant with Feng's child, so she might as well give it a try...
Feng Bochang pondered for a moment, then said, "When I was seriously injured, Miss Shen did save me..."
"It's just that I don't know about the baby in Miss Shen's belly."
This answer was not too bad, but it did not satisfy Shen Jingzhen at all.
"Feng Bochang! Do you have any conscience when you say this? You know I gave you everything I have!"
Shen Jingzhen was so angry that her eyes were filled with tears: "You knew that this child was yours, but what did you tell me at the beginning!"
Xiao Mengxi sneered and said, "Come here, ask the imperial physician to come and check Miss Shen's pulse."
As soon as Xiao Mengxi said this, the princess's mansion's regular imperial physician quickly rushed over.
Shen Jingzhen's face was full of nervousness, but no one knew what she was nervous about at this moment. It would be more accurate to say that she was afraid of the unknown rather than nervousness.
The imperial physician carefully examined her pulse for a while, and then said, "My lord, this girl is indeed pregnant, and has been pregnant for more than three months."
Xiao Mengxi pulled the corner of her lip, and said with a bit of teasing, "I didn't expect the Shen family to have such an open style. Commander Feng has a really good vision."
Hearing Xiao Mengxi's ridicule, Feng Bochang's face turned blue and red for a moment.
"Humble job..."
He seemed to want to say something else, but Xiao Mengxi didn't want to waste time talking to him. She just said, "Forget it. Since the man has feelings for me and I have feelings for him, it is this princess who has misunderstood."
Hearing this, Shen Jingzhen finally breathed a sigh of relief, her whole body went limp, and she fell to the ground.
At this moment, Qin Xuerong and Shen Meiru, who had been waiting outside the door to watch the excitement, saw Xiao Rui running out like a madman, and then the imperial physician was called in, and they were very anxious.
But now there are so many people, people of higher status than them, waiting in the yard. If they rush forward rashly, they will be too conspicuous.
So even though she was obviously extremely anxious, Qin Xuerong had no choice but to wait outside, moving forward a few steps calmly and chatting with the other ladies.
"Oh, this couldn't be a fatality, why did it get reported to the imperial physician?"
Another person whispered, "I heard that he seduced the prince's girl and got her pregnant."
"What? Pregnant with the prince's child?"
"No...it seems that she is pregnant with someone else's child, but she wants to put the blame on the prince."
Qin Xuerong couldn't help but interrupt: "What did you say? Pregnant?"
The man wanted to say something, but when he saw it was Qin Xuerong, he paused, changed the subject, and his eyes became more meaningful: "Yes, Madam Shen, I also heard the news that came from inside just now."
Qin Xuerong was stunned for a moment, then couldn't help but laugh.
How dare Shen Shuyi secretly get pregnant? She was actually pregnant?
Whose child is this?
Haha, this is really God’s help!
