Rumor Has It That I’m Pregnant with His Highness’ Child

  Chapter 601 Threats

  Yu Niao has been lying on the bed for three whole days, but her condition has not improved.

   At first, Shen Zhuo thought that the doctor's medical skills were not good enough, so he changed several doctors one after another, but to no avail.

  Almost every doctor said that she had a wind-cold in her body and it was not serious. As long as she took medicine on time and had a good rest, she would get better within three to five days.

   But the facts are contrary to what the doctors said.

  Yu Niao not only showed no signs of improvement, but became more and more ill.

   This made Shen Zhuo suspicious.

  He called Huaner over, and asked Niaoyou carefully about her words and deeds in the past three days.

  Huan'er told everything she knew.

  Shen Zhuo: "You mean, every time she takes the medicine, she will let you all go out?"

Huan'er nodded: "Yes, Miss Yu said that she didn't like people watching when she was drinking the medicine, so she let us all go down, and when the servant girl entered the room again, she had already finished drinking the medicine in the bowl. "

  Hearing this, Shen Zhuo had a bottom line in his heart.

  He ordered someone to boil a bowl of decoction, and then walked into the bedroom with the decoction himself.

  Yu Niaoyou was lying on the bed weakly, her small face was as white as paper, looking very thin.

  Shen Zhuo sat down beside the bed, and helped Yu Youyou up with one hand.

   "Come on, drink your medicine."

  Yu Niaoyou turned her head: "You put down the medicine, I can drink it myself."

  Shen Zhuo didn't force it, and followed her will to put the medicine bowl on the small table beside the bed.

  Yu Niao stretched out her hand to pick up the medicine bowl, but she didn't drink it, but said to Shen Zhuo.

"get out."

  Shen Zhuo said warmly: "Gu is here to accompany you, not going anywhere."

  Yu Niao put down the bowl: "You look like this, I can't drink it."

  Shen Zhuo smiled slightly, and picked up the bowl of medicine again.

   "Let Gu Lai feed you."

  Yu Youyou frowned: "What exactly do you want?"

  Shen Zhuo's demeanor is still so gentle, but his words are very strong.

   "Gu said, Gu wants you to drink medicine, you can only get better if you drink medicine."

  Yu Youyou pursed her lower lip: "You don't have to be hypocritical in front of me, I know what you want to do."

  Shen Zhuo pretended to be interested, and asked, "Oh? Then tell me, what does Gu want?"

  Yu Niaoyou: "You worked so hard to treat me for fear that I might die, because you want to know the whereabouts of that charred corpse from me, right?"

  Shen Zhuo: "What if Gu says no?"

   Yu Niao obviously didn't believe it.

   "How dare you swear that you don't want to know the whereabouts of the charred corpse from me? That charred corpse is related to your father's status. If you can't find that charred corpse, you and your father will not be at ease."

  Shen Zhuo let out a long sigh, showing helplessness.

   "Yes, I really want to know the whereabouts of the charred corpse, but I also sincerely hope that you can recover."

   Yu Niao twitched the corners of her mouth and sneered.

   "If I die of illness like this, you will never know where the charred corpse is hidden."

  Shen Zhuo frowned slightly: "It doesn't matter if you don't want to say it, I won't force you, you don't need to joke about your health."

  Yu Niaoyou: "Do you think I will still believe what you say?"

  Shen Zhuo felt powerless.

   "Gu lied to you before, but Gu never thought of hurting you, and Gu's heart for you has never changed, so can't you give Gu a little more trust?"

  Yu Niaoyou thought of the past years when she was a child, the affection of childhood sweethearts really existed.

   However, everything has changed.

  She said slowly: "In my heart, the former brother Jun Zhi has long since died, and now in front of me is Shen Zhuo, the crown prince of the Dayan Dynasty."

  Shen Zhuo's hand holding the medicine bowl trembled slightly.

  The decoction in the bowl also rippled in circles.

  His heart was bitter, and a deep sense of powerlessness entangled him tightly, making him wonder what to do with the woman in front of him.

  He closed his eyes and suppressed the chaotic emotions in his heart.

  When he opened his eyes again, his eyes were clear again.

  Shen Zhuo said word by word: "It was Gu who took the risk to save you. Your life now belongs to Gu. Without Gu's permission, you can't even die."

  Yu Niaoyou turned her head to look away, and ignored his words.

  Shen Zhuo: "You have only two choices now, either you drink the medicine obediently by yourself, or you click on your acupoints alone, and then feed you to drink mouth to mouth."

  Yu Niaoyou immediately turned her head back and stared at him fiercely.

   "Are you disgusting?!"

  Shen Zhuo was not angry when he was scolded, and was even somewhat happy.

  Compared to her unlovable appearance, she was a little more angry when she was angry, and she looked more vivid.

  Shen Zhuo handed over the medicine bowl and asked again.

   "Which one do you choose?"

  Yu Niaoyou: "From the moment I stepped into the palace, I was already ready to die. There is no need for you to save me."

  Shen Zhuo didn't like hearing her say such things very much.

  He frowned and said, "Don't you still want revenge? If you die, what about the enmity between your mother and stepfather? Are you going to give up just like that?"

  Yu Youyou said indifferently: "This is my business, it has nothing to do with you."

  Shen Zhuo handed the medicine bowl in front of her again.

   "If you don't want to be forced to feed the medicine by the lonely point, you can drink the medicine yourself."

  Yu Youyou took the medicine bowl: "You can let me drink the medicine, but you have to promise me one condition."

  Shen Zhuo: "Except for letting you go, you can put forward other conditions as you like."

  Yu Niaoyou: "If I remember correctly, the day after tomorrow is the Queen Mother's birthday, and there will be a grand birthday banquet in the palace, and I want to join in the fun."

  Shen Zhuo looked at her probingly.

   "What are you thinking about?"

Yu Lingyou looked innocent: "I've already been caught by you, what else can I do? Besides, there are so many imperial guards in the palace, and I, a weak woman who doesn't know martial arts at all, am no match for them at all. I just want to join in the fun, I promise, I won't do anything."

  Shen Zhuo didn't believe a word she said.

  Although this girl doesn't know martial arts, she can often come up with unexpected ideas in her head.

   On the day of the birthday banquet, not only civil and military officials will be present, but also foreign envoys. If something goes wrong at the birthday banquet, no one will be able to end it.

  Shen Zhuo flatly rejected Yu Niaoyou's request.

   "No, you just stay here honestly, you can't go anywhere."

  Yu Niaoyou made a gesture to pour out the soup in the bowl.

  Shen Zhuo quickly grabbed her wrist: "What are you doing?"

  Yu Niaoyou: "Since you don't agree to my conditions, then I won't take the medicine and let me die of illness."

  Shen Zhuo reprimanded in a low voice: "Don't mess around!"

  Yu Niaoyou: "Aren't you good at martial arts? You can touch my acupuncture points, but I can assure you that as long as you dare to touch my acupuncture points, I will kill myself immediately by biting my tongue. If you don't believe me, try it!"

  After she finished speaking, she deliberately bit her tongue with her teeth in a threatening posture.

  Shen Zhuo really has nothing to do with her now.

   "Father thinks you are dead, if Gu takes you to the palace for a banquet, if father finds out, the consequences will be very serious."

  Yu Niaoyou: "Then I don't care, anyway, I know you must have a way."

  Shen Zhuo sighed helplessly: "Okay, Gu promises you."
