"Miss, what's wrong with you? Why are you asking me this question? If you have no children, even if you are not deposed, it is normal for His Highness to remarry. However, at that time, Miss would be like being banished to the cold palace, with nothing left."

Xiaoyin was at a loss whether to laugh or cry, but she still responded to Ling Xiyue's words.

"Nothing left? What does that mean?" Ling Xiyue was puzzled and continued to ask.

"It means that we have no status. Originally, the Ling family wanted to stabilize its status through marriage with His Highness. However, if the eldest lady is unable to give birth, then this marriage will be of no use." Xiaoyin explained.

"This marriage will not have any effect? ​​Then my brother, his relationship with His Highness will not be close anymore?" Ling Xiyue seemed to sense something and was a little worried.

"That's for sure, but it's different since you have a child, young lady. The future child will be the eldest young master's nephew. If something happens to the eldest young master, how can a nephew stand idly by?" Xiaoyin analyzed.

As soon as these words fell, Ling Xiyue was completely stunned.

She pondered in her mind: Xiaoyin reminded me, even if I am married to His Highness now and Ling Junqi is already working for His Highness, the relationship between His Highness and Ling Junqi is still very delicate. If I have no children, His Highness will not use Ling Junqi. If Ling Junqi gets into trouble, His Highness may not necessarily help Ling Junqi.

Thinking about this, Ling Xiyue couldn't help but let out a faint sigh.

After seeing this, Xiaoyin advised: "You should get pregnant quickly while His Highness likes the eldest lady. With a child, you will be protected."

"Let me think about it." Ling Xiyue was in a very confused mood at the moment and she didn't want to talk anymore.

Seeing this, Xiaoyin didn't say anything more, but she was still very worried about Ling Xiyue.

In the next few days, He Tingxi did not go to Ling Xiyue's room again, fulfilling his promise.

Ling Xiyue is still working on her own thoughts. Although the body belongs to the original owner, she still finds it a little hard to accept.

But, I don't want to accept it, and I can't complete the task, so I'm very conflicted.

in a few days

Ling Junqi went to the eldest prince's mansion. He first went to the study to meet He Tingxi.

Shi Hui was also there at that time.

After Ling Junqi bowed, he directly stated his purpose.

"Your Highness, tomorrow, the Second Prince will come over in person to propose marriage. He said he wants the First Prince's wife to come over to discuss the wedding arrangements. Do you agree?"

"Did he designate only the eldest prince's wife? Did he mention me?" He Tingxi was a little surprised.

"No, he only mentioned the Crown Prince's wife." Ling Junqi said truthfully.

He Tingxi had a bad feeling for a moment, but he didn't say it out loud.

"How about this? As it happens, I am free tomorrow, so I will go to Ling Mansion with Xiyue."

Ling Junqi was very pleased with what he heard, and he smiled and said, "Yes, thank you, Your Highness."

"You go and explain this matter to Xiyue in detail. I won't go." He Tingxi ordered.

"Yes."

Ling Junqi left the study and went directly to Ling Xiyue's yard.

Ling Xiyue was very happy to see Ling Junqi coming. The two of them sat in the room and chatted, with Xiaoyin alone to keep them company.

"Brother, why are you here? Is there something important?" Ling Xiyue asked.

"Yes, it's the Second Prince. He will come to the Ling Mansion in person tomorrow to propose marriage, and he invites you to go and discuss the wedding arrangements. I have just asked His Highness for instructions, and not only did His Highness agree, he also said he would go with you. Now, I am here to tell you."

Ling Junqi finished speaking in one breath.

Ling Xiyue was stunned for a moment, a little surprised, "Your Highness, you agree so soon? And you agree to go with me?"

"Well, I didn't expect His Highness to be so straightforward. It seems that His Highness loves you very much." Ling Junqi said with a smile.

Ling Xiyue felt a little guilty and smiled awkwardly: "It's okay."

"What do you mean it's okay? It's very good. You should cherish His Highness. He really is a rare perfect man in the world, except for his legs." Ling Junqi retorted.

Ling Xiyue was speechless for a moment. Seeing that Ling Junqi was deeply poisoned by He Tingxi, she didn't want to refute.

"Xiyue, you've been married for more than a month. Are you pregnant?" Ling Junqi looked at Ling Xiyue.

Ling Xiyue was stunned and smiled speechlessly, "Brother, how could you know so quickly? It's only been over a month."

"How can I not know? If the period is delayed, there is a high probability that you are pregnant. It's just a matter of confirmation." Ling Junqi responded excitedly.

"No, I'm not pregnant." Ling Xiyue didn't want to say more and denied it directly.

Ling Junqi was stunned, a look of disappointment appeared on his face, and he was very puzzled.

"It shouldn't be like this. His Highness dotes on you so much, why didn't you get pregnant?"

"I don't know either." Ling Xiyue pretended to be stupid.

Seeing this, Xiaoyin lowered her head and tried to hold back her laughter, but did not expose Ling Xiyue.

Ling Junqi sighed and advised: "Xiyue, you have to pay attention to your diet and don't eat things that are bad for your body. You have to get pregnant as soon as possible, that's the important thing, understand?"

"Okay, I understand." Ling Xiyue responded impatiently.

"Okay, I have to go back too. Just take care of yourself." Ling Junqi stood up.

"Okay, take care, bro."

After Ling Xiyue saw Ling Junqi walking away, she started to complain, "Brother, really, it's just over a month and you're already asking if I'm pregnant. Your Highness is not as anxious as him."

"Because the eldest master doesn't know, Your Highness has only been to the eldest lady's room twice. How could it be so easy for her to get pregnant?" Xiaoyin agreed.

Ling Xiyue glanced at Xiaoyin and fell silent.

I muttered to myself: Xiaoyin thought that His Highness and I only slept together twice, but in fact, His Highness and I didn't have sex even once. Oh, I'll keep silent.

next day

Ling Xiyue and He Tingxi took a carriage to the Ling Mansion together.

This time, after Shi Hui carried He Tingxi onto the carriage, he got out of the carriage without accompanying him.

Ling Xiyue was very surprised and asked curiously, "Your Highness, why is Shi Hui not with you this time?"

"It's okay as long as you are here." He Tingxi smiled faintly.

"Me? What can I do for you?" Ling Xiyue looked at He Tingxi with confusion.

He Tingxi smiled slightly and said, "Just sit next to me and support me."

"Support you?" Ling Xiyue was a little surprised.

"There will always be some bumps on the road. It will be safer if you hold on to me." He Tingxi said seriously.

Ling Xiyue thought about it and agreed.

"Ok."

She walked to He Tingxi, but did not sit next to him. Instead, she sat one person away from him. Then she grabbed He Tingxi's arms with both hands, but she used a little force for fear that she might not be able to hold on firmly.

He Tingxi glanced at Ling Xiyue's performance from the side and shook his head helplessly.

The carriage was moving forward normally, but suddenly, it braked suddenly. Ling Xiyue and He Tingxi both leaned forward out of habit, but Ling Xiyue exerted force with her feet and quickly sat firmly.

However, He Tingxi continued to lean forward. When Ling Xiyue saw this, she didn't have time to think about it and simply hugged He Tingxi's body tightly with both hands, thus stabilizing He Tingxi.
