Episode 15 recap: Luo Qing Lian narrowly escaped harm.
The king also called the royal physician to come and check Luo Qing Lian's pulse. The physician stated that this pregnancy was very healthy, which made the king very happy. Dong Li dropped something, and He Lian Xin picked it up and showed it to the king. The king was surprised to find out that Luo Qing Lian actually wanted to take the child and leave. Luo Qing Lian explained that she had considered taking the child away before because she wanted the child to have a peaceful life. The king remained silent for a long time and eventually expressed his willingness to grant Luo Qing Lian's wish, which shocked He Lian Xin. Luo Qing Lian asked the king for some more time.
Yuan, the official, told the crown prince that the reason he became the crown prince was that he was the only bloodline of the former queen. But now that everyone knows Luo Qing Lian is a substitute for the former queen, if Luo Qing Lian's child is born successfully, how could the crown prince still remain the crown prince? After the king left, Luo Qing Lian looked at He Lian Xin and said she wanted to see how deep his love truly was.
He Lian Xin admitted that he did tell the king about the situation to prevent Luo Qing Lian from leaving. He admitted that he had previously felt fearless, but when Luo Qing Lian fainted, he was genuinely scared. He Lian Xin confessed that he had truly fallen into Luo Qing Lian's hands and had fallen in love with her. Nan Ru Zhen came to see the fourth wife and mentioned that there was strict surveillance in the mansion, making it difficult for her to come out. He Lian Xin sent various gifts to Luo Qing Lian, and the main wife happened to see it and was very unhappy.
This time, He Lian Xin sent a blood swallow to Luo Qing Lian. Initially, Luo Qing Lian intended to give it to the main wife, but since she didn't want it, Luo Qing Lian had it put away. Luo Qing Lian and the main wife went to visit Rou Fu Ren, but the maidservant there said that Rou Fu Ren had caught a cold and couldn't come to meet them. Luo Qing Lian and the main wife went back first, and the main wife felt that Rou Fu Ren had always been ruthless and advised Luo Qing Lian not to trust her too much. Luo Qing Lian thought that Rou Fu Ren's maidservant was indeed a bit strange, but she believed that Rou Fu Ren wouldn't harm anyone.
The main wife was also somewhat displeased to find out that Luo Qing Lian trusted Rou Fu Ren so much, as it seemed like her own petty mindset. Unbeknownst to them, Rou Fu Ren happened to be eavesdropping nearby. Rou Fu Ren approached Mo Fu Ren, who felt that Rou Fu Ren had never given her a second glance before and was surprised by her sudden compliance.
Rou Fu Ren stated that although she was currently under the control of Mo Fu Ren, it didn't mean she was afraid of her. He Lian Xin complained that he had given so many things to Luo Qing Lian, but she still seemed indifferent. Su Nan Chun believed that if He Lian Xin bestowed the title of secondary wife on Luo Qing Lian, she would definitely be happy.
He Lian Xin believed that even if Luo Qing Lian were to be named the legitimate wife, it would be acceptable. Unexpectedly, the legitimate wife overheard their conversation. Rou Fu Ren came over to deliver clothes to Luo Qing Lian, and the main wife saw it from outside but did not enter. A servant brought out a dog from this side, and Rou Fu Ren took Luo Qing Lian to the garden to see it. Rou Fu Ren wanted to pull Luo Qing Lian back, but the servant arrived in time.
Rou Fu Ren walked ahead, and Luo Qing Lian hurriedly followed, only to encounter a dog charging towards them. Fortunately, He Lian Xin and Lv Bei Yi arrived and prevented any harm to Luo Qing Lian. He Lian Xin interrogated the person, and the legitimate wife explained that her maidservant was originally supposed to go to the backyard to fetch something today. However, she found it strange that someone was near the old warehouse and went to investigate. She saw a dog inside and came to inform her.
The legitimate wife mentioned that Mo Fu Ren was in charge of the keys to the old warehouse, to which Mo Fu Ren hastily claimed innocence. He Lian Xin stated that plotting against the heir was a grave offense, and if the person revealed the mastermind behind it, he would only punish that individual and not involve their family members.
