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

Xiaoyu shook her head nervously.

"I don't know. She keeps vomiting. Maybe she's not used to the local climate. I'll get her some hot water now."

"Go ahead, I'll go in and take a look."

After saying that, she came into the room and saw Rujing holding a spittoon and vomiting non-stop, while the maid Ye Zi was patting her back non-stop.

Seeing her come in, Ye Zi looked at her coldly.

"What are you doing here? Our princess doesn't want to see you."

"presumptuous!"

Bai Lan scolded,

"Our princess is the Protector of the Nation Princess appointed by the Emperor himself. You are just a little girl, you dare to speak like that, you are really courting death."

Ye Zi frowned and hesitated for a moment, then lowered her head and said nothing more.

Leng Rujing raised the handkerchief in her hand to wipe her mouth, then looked towards Luo Nianxi.

"Come and watch the fun?"

Luo Nianxi looked at her helplessly.

"Leng Rujing, you and I are both hostages of the Northern Chu State now. We are like grasshoppers on the same rope. You don't have to hate me so much."

"Ah!"

Leng Rujing snorted softly.

"I am a legitimate princess. You are just a name given to you by the emperor in order to get you to marry into the royal family. What do you have to compare with me? Don't put you and me together."

Looking at her pale face, Luo Nianxi didn't want to say more to her. She took two steps forward.

"Let me check your pulse..."

"No need, I've already asked the doctor."

She glanced at Bai Lan, and said to her with understanding:

"Everyone, stand down."

But Ye Zi stared at her unwillingly.

"I need to take care of the princess, you should step back."

She told Bai Lan without any hesitation:

"Take her away from here. I don't want to talk to her."

"Let me see who dares?"

Ye Zi wanted to break free, but her hands were already held by Bai Lan. Bai Lan dragged her out without saying a word.

Leng Rujing got up from the bed with some fear.

"Luo Nianxi, what are you going to do?"

Luo Nianxi took two steps forward regardless, took her hand, and placed four fingers on her pulse...

"Let me go!"

Leng Rujing pulled back her hand in anger, and then shouted angrily:

"Luo Nianxi, you dare to disrespect this princess, you are really courting death."

"I think you are looking for death."

Luo Nianxi suddenly looked at her coldly.

"Leng Rujing, you won't survive if you go to Northern Chu in your current state, do you know that?"

"Humph! Luo Nianxi, don't try to scare me. I am the princess of Pingyang State, and I have royal blood flowing in my veins. What can the people of Northern Chu State do to me?"

"If you marry to the Northern Chu Kingdom with integrity, you will naturally receive the preferential treatment that a princess deserves..."

"fart!"

Leng Rujing suddenly shouted,

"Luo Nianxi, what do you mean by this? Do you want to frame this princess?"

As soon as she finished speaking, Bai Lan's voice came from outside.

"Miss, the doctor is here."

Luo Nianxi's expression instantly became tense, and she ordered outside:

"Princess Rujing was just having some difficulty acclimatizing. She is fine now. Please go back, doctor!"

"Luo Nianxi, what are you going to do?"

Leng Rujing raised her finger and pointed at her angrily.

"You won't even let me see the doctor, do you want to watch me vomit to death?"

She turned her head and looked at her solemnly.

"Leng Rujing, if you don't want to die in a foreign country, just shut up."

"you……"

Although Leng Rujing didn't understand what she meant, she still shut her mouth under her intimidation.

After a burst of complaints from the doctor outside, everything returned to calm.

Luo Nianxi finally breathed a sigh of relief. At this moment, Leng Rujing vomited again...

It wasn't until she felt that there was nothing left in her stomach that she wiped the corner of her mouth and looked at Luo Nianxi.

"Why did you stop the doctor from seeing me? What exactly do you want to do?"

"Leng Rujing, you are pregnant now, don't you know it?"

"what?"

Leng Rujing's face turned pale in an instant. She took a few steps back in vain and leaned against the edge of the bed, shaking her head and denying.

"No, it's impossible, you are lying to me."

"Have you ever done that thing and not known it in your heart?"

Her words brought Leng Rujing's thoughts back to the night she and Guo Wei were together.

That night, Guo Wei had sex with her three times, and she didn't drink the contraceptive soup. Could it be that she was pregnant with Guo Wei's child?

After receiving the news, she suddenly covered her stomach, leaned against the edge of the bed, and her whole body slid helplessly to the ground, tears silently sliding down her cheeks.

Looking at Leng Rujing who was slumped on the ground, Luo Nianxi breathed a sigh of relief and reminded:

"If the Chu people knew about this, the consequences would be unimaginable, so you have to find a way to keep it secret."

Leng Rujing thought of the purse she had given Guo Wei before leaving, and suddenly she got up like crazy, muttering,

"No, I want to go back to Chang'an. I want to find him. I want to find him."

Luo Nianxi stepped forward and held her back, scolding her in a low voice: "Leng Rujing, calm down."

"How can I stay calm? How do you want me to stay calm? He's dying. If he dies, my child will be left without a father."

"Keep your voice down. If someone hears us, neither you nor I will survive."

"But he is going to die. I am going to kill him with my own hands. I can't let him die. I can't let him die."

"Leng Rujing..."

She suddenly shouted,

"Leng Rujing, we are already in Northern Chu and can't go back. You should think about what to do with the baby in your belly!"

When talking about children, Leng Rujing instantly became quiet.

She stared at Luo Nianxi blankly.

"I want to give birth to this child, I want to give birth to it..."

"But this is a child, not a small thing. Not only do you have to ensure that no one finds out during your nine-month pregnancy, but you also have to ensure that no one finds out when you give birth to him. How can you do that?"

"I……"

Leng Rujing stood there at a loss, she touched her belly and asked again,

"I really have a baby in my belly? You didn't lie to me?"

"No, it's been more than fifty days now. You can count the days, right?"

After she and Guo Wei had sex, Guo Wei went to Youzhou Pass to pick up the people from Northern Chu. The round trip took more than a month. Adding the twenty days it took them to get from Chang'an City to Jeju, it was exactly more than fifty days!

Thinking of this, her face turned pale again. She had not expected that after a night of secret love, she would get pregnant with Guo Wei's child.

What should she do? What can she do?

She suddenly looked up at Luo Nianxi.

"Please help me, you must have a way, please help me, please."

As she said this, she took two steps forward helplessly, pulling Luo Nianxi's sleeve, as if she was going to kneel down to her.

Luo Nianxi hurriedly helped her up.

"Don't worry. You won't be showing any signs of pregnancy right now. Apart from vomiting, you won't feel anything else. Once we get to Chu, we'll slowly think of a solution!"

"No matter what, I want to keep this child. You must keep it a secret for me. Please help me. I know you are kind-hearted. You won't mind what I did to you before. You will help me, right?"

Although Luo Nianxi didn't have much affection for her, there was fear in her eyes. Besides, the child was innocent and they were in a foreign land together, so it was only right to help her.

Thinking of this, she nodded solemnly.

"I can help you, but you have to control your mouth. You must not tell anyone about this matter, not even your girls. Otherwise, they might betray you one day to protect themselves. Do you understand?"

Leng Rujing nodded heavily.

"I promise that I won't tell anyone else about this except you and me."

"Well, after you came to Chu, you vomited occasionally due to the unfamiliar climate and water, and your mental state was not very good. Do you remember that?"

"Yeah, I remember."

"Fortunately, Chu Hanrui is young and will not marry you within a year. During this period, you should try to wear loose clothes and never let anyone see any clues."

"Okay, I understand, Luo Nianxi, thank you, I have one more thing I want to ask of you."
