I married the crippled queen and became the most favored queen in the capital

"Hehe, she is also Leng Yicheng's sister. One day, when Leng Yicheng and I confront each other, she will definitely stand on his side."

This was true. Leng Rujing didn't take him as her brother seriously, so it was better not to see him.

"Leng Yiyan, now that you see I'm safe, you can rest assured. Let's go, we'll see each other in five months. This prince's mansion is heavily guarded, and I don't want anything to happen to you."

Seeing that she was anxious for him to leave, Leng Yiyan once again held her tightly in his arms, holding her reluctantly.

"Nian Xi, promise me that you will protect yourself and wait for me..."

She nestled in his arms and nodded heavily.

"Yes, you must protect yourself and remember what I said. You must wait five months before coming back. Otherwise, I will not go back with you..."

She had to make sure to see Leng Rujing's child being born safely.

She originally wanted to tell him that he still owed her 12,000 taels of silver, but then she changed her mind and thought, if she said this in such an environment, wouldn't he be so angry that he would die?

At this time, Bai Lan's voice came from outside.

"Miss, His Highness is here again. He has brought you dinner and is waiting for you in the front hall. Do you want to go back?"

Bai Lan didn't know that Leng Yiyan had arrived. She thought that Chu Hanxiang came back again because he had discovered something, so her tone was a little hurried.

Hearing this, Luo Nianxi's brows tightened instantly, and Leng Yiyan's expression also became very ugly.

"What is he doing here so late?"

"You go ahead, I'll deal with it."

After leaving these words, she responded to Bai Lan,

"Tell His Highness to wait for me in the hall. I will come after I change my clothes."

Leng Yiyan held her shoulders tightly.

"I'm going to kill him. If he dares to touch you, I'll make sure he dies without a burial place."

She just grabbed his hand.

"Leng Yiyan, he didn't touch me and treated me with courtesy. You can rest assured. If you kill him now, do you think you can leave Northern Chu alive? Don't do anything stupid. Now that you have regained your status as the God of War General, don't make a fearless sacrifice and leave here quickly."

Leaving these words behind, she straightened her clothes and pushed the door open impatiently.

It turned out that Chu Hanxiang stayed in Qiuyuyuan for a while. Thinking that she had not eaten dinner, he went to the kitchen to cook porridge and brought it back to her.

Through the crack in the door, Leng Yiyan watched Chu Hanxiang diligently serve porridge to Luo Nianxi and peel eggs for her. He felt indescribable bitterness in his heart.

These things were originally done by him, but now this damn man is asked to do it.

Thinking of this, he clenched his fists tightly, but he also knew that it was not advisable to stay here for long, and he had to leave early.

After looking in the direction of Luo Nianxi again, he turned around reluctantly, jumped out of the window, and disappeared into the night.

Chu Hanxiang sat opposite Luo Nianxi, watching her drink the porridge in her bowl nonchalantly, and then he grinned.

"Xi girl, I've always thought that you can't not eat. It's easy to get hungry and hurt your body, so I went to the kitchen to make porridge for you. You should eat a little. If your stomach is not empty, your body will feel better."

She was eating the porridge in the bowl, but she was worried in her heart. She didn't know whether Leng Yiyan had left or not. She hoped he would not do anything stupid.

"Xi girl, did you hear me? What are you thinking about?"

Chu Hanxiang's words interrupted her thoughts. She looked up at him and nodded.

"Yeah, I heard it. This porridge tastes good."

"Really? Then eat more. I told you that you must like the porridge I made. Jiaoyue even said that it was in vain for me to make it."

When Hu Jiaoyue was mentioned, Luo Nianxi swallowed the porridge in her mouth and looked up to remind her,

"If you have some free time recently, please spend more time with her. It's not easy for her either."

She wanted to tell him that maybe she was pregnant with his child, but she couldn't guarantee that it would be accurate. When the words came to her lips, she swallowed them back.

Two months later

Today is New Year's Day. Chu Hanxiang, who rarely attends lunch today, has invited six concubines to attend.

Leng Rujing is now six months pregnant. In order to avoid being noticed, she wears a tight bra inside and keeps her outer clothes loose. No one would think that she is pregnant, so naturally no one would suspect her.

She is still the same as before, not very talkative. Since coming here, she has rarely spoken.

Most of the time, she likes to sit quietly, and no one knows what she is thinking about.

Chu Hanrui, who was sitting next to her, ate his food without caring about anything and didn't even want to look at her.

During the banquet, Chu Hanxiang raised his glass and said with a slightly red face:

"This year is New Year, and I am very happy because we have two princesses from foreign countries who have come from afar to celebrate the New Year with us. Come, let's raise our glasses and celebrate the New Year together."

As soon as he said this, everyone raised their glasses. Hu Jiaoyue, who was sitting next to him, suddenly raised her hand to cover her mouth, left her seat, ran to the spittoon bucket, and started vomiting.

This scene made Chu Hanxiang's face turn ugly. He frowned immediately.

"Someone, take the Crown Princess down to rest, don't disturb everyone's good mood."

Seeing this, Luo Nianxi stood up from her chair, came to her, patted her back, and said softly:

"what happened?"

After vomiting, Hu Jiaoyue raised her handkerchief to wipe her mouth and shook her head.

"I don't know. I've been feeling sick the last few days. Maybe it's the cold weather and my stomach problems are coming back."

Stomach trouble?

Luo Nianxi didn't think so. She simply pulled her wrist and began to take her pulse.

She suspected that she was pregnant.

Chu Hanxiang, who was waiting there, was already a little impatient. He walked over to Luo Nianxi and discussed quietly,

"Xi girl, this disgusting scene happened this New Year. I really owe you. Come here."

As soon as he finished speaking, Ah Chu and two maids came up quickly.

"Your Highness..."

"I ordered you to take the Crown Princess down to rest. Are you deaf? Can't you hear me? Do you have to let her stay here to disgust people?"

As soon as he said this, Hu Jiaoyue looked at him with a face full of grievance.

"Your Highness, I don't want to..."

Chu Hanxiang waved his hands impatiently.

"Why can't you just hold back if you don't want to? There are so many people at the table, and this is really a letdown."

Hu Jiaoyue timidly withdrew her hand, bit her lip tightly, and was about to turn around and leave when Luo Nianxi called her.

"It's a normal reaction for a woman to be pregnant. She feels worse than anyone else. Your Highness not only doesn't care about her, but blames her like this. This is really unbecoming of a husband..."

Hu Jiaoyue stared at her with wide eyes, stunned.

"You...what did you say?"

Chu Hanxiang also seemed not to understand.

"Xi girl, what did you say?"

Luo Nianxi looked at him coldly with displeasure.

"I say, the Crown Princess is pregnant, this is her normal pregnancy reaction, you should care more about her instead of scolding her like this."
