The Royal Family's Orphan is on the Rise

Ji Chenyu looked at Shen Jiarou and said, "Rou'er, do you want to go to court with me today?"

Thinking of herself feeling weak and sore all over, and the marks on her body left by the love affair, Shen Jiarou refused and shook her head.

"No, my brother, go ahead. I will go tomorrow."

Ruan Qingling had been waiting quietly, watching the couple finally get along with each other. She was also happy for her masters and hoped that both masters were doing well.

Seeing that she had been tormented by him for several hours, she must be very tired. Ji Chenyu was reluctant to let Shen Jiarou go to court again. It was still a cold winter day, so he didn't want to let his Queen Rouer feel cold.

"Okay, then Rou'er, you should have a good rest in Fengyi Palace. You can go back to sleep later and get some rest. I will come to accompany you for lunch."

"it is good."

Because Shen Jiarou did not help Ji Chenyu wash, change clothes, and tie his hair, Ruan Qingling took the palace maids to help Ji Chenyu wash, change clothes, and tie his hair on her behalf.

Shen Jiarou lay on the bed and watched them busying around. She thought about the two intimate contacts she had already had with her husband. With her fertile physique, she was afraid that there was already a little life in her belly. Moreover, her brother was working so hard, so the possibility of pregnancy was very high.

Thinking about the current situation in the former dynasty and the harem, Shen Jiarou felt that she should make some preparations in advance.

After Ji Chenyu finished cleaning up, he looked at his wife who was lying quietly behind the bed curtain. He walked forward, lifted the curtain, leaned over and kissed her on the forehead.

"My Queen Rou'er, have a good rest. I will come to accompany you for lunch."

Shen Jiarou pursed her lips and nodded. Ji Chenyu smiled gently and turned to leave. When he walked to the screen, Shen Jiarou suddenly sat up and called him.

"Brother Royal."

Ji Chenyu turned around in confusion, only to see Shen Jiarou, in her underwear, getting out of bed and running towards him.

Looking at the man who was a head taller than her, Shen Jiarou stood on tiptoe and climbed onto his neck, and spoke to him close to his neck. Ji Chenyu thought she was going to kiss him and was happy for quite a while.

"Brother, the situation is unstable right now. I will make some medicine for you in a while, but please believe me, Rou'er. If nothing goes wrong, I will give birth to a big fat boy for you next year."

Although Ji Chenyu felt disappointed, he was still moved when he heard her sincere words.

Ji Chenyu held her slender waist with both hands and smiled gently and dotingly.

"Okay, listen to Rouer." He leaned over and kissed her on her red lips, but Shen Jiarou wanted to avoid him.

"No, I haven't washed yet."

"I don't dislike you."

After enjoying it for a while, he reluctantly left Shen Jiarou's soft red lips. Thinking of her bare feet, Ji Chenyu leaned over, picked her up, walked to the phoenix couch, and gently put her down.

"Don't go barefoot anymore. I'll feel bad. Sleep a little longer and get up. I'm leaving."

Shen Jiarou nodded slightly and watched his leaving back. Perhaps she was too tired and sleepy, she fell into a deep sleep as soon as she closed her eyes.

It was an hour later that Shen Jiarou woke up. She felt weak and sore all over. She sighed that men were lustful at any age. Fortunately, she was still good-looking and had a plump figure. They had a friendship from their youth, and her brother had feelings for her. Otherwise, she would have been able to only be a respectful couple with him.

Nan Qi came over with the egg custard, and seeing that she was awake, she quickly put it on the round table and walked over to help her get out of bed.

"My queen, after you rinse your mouth, eat some fu rong eggs to fill your stomach. After you change your clothes and put on your makeup, you can have some breakfast."

"Okay, it's up to you."

Nami brought her some water to help her wash up. Nan Qi brought the lotus egg she had put down to the front of the phoenix couch, scooped up a spoonful, blew on it, and passed it to the mouth of the seated Shen Jiarou.

"Come, madam, it should still be hot, so eat slowly."

The empress dowager was even more delighted when she learned that Shen Jiarou slept in the bedroom for an hour after Ji Chenyu went to court.

Nanny Luo was also happy for her: "Queen Dowager, maybe the Queen is pregnant with a prince."

"We have to keep a low profile. The situation in the imperial court and the imperial harem is tense right now. We can't let anyone harm us."

Bai Yuechu nodded solemnly: "The Queen Mother is right, but the Queen is so smart, I believe she will find a way to save the prince."

Although the Queen Mother knew that her daughter would not want to at first, if she really got pregnant, she would try her best to keep the child, whether for the stability of the court, the stability of the country, or herself. She believed that she would do the best thing for herself, so she didn't have to worry about this matter.

Ruan Qingling secretly brewed the medicine herself to fool the enemy's spies. She also brought it to the bedroom herself and asked Shen Jiarou to drink it. However, Shen Jiarou would not really drink it. Instead, she poured the medicine into a flowerpot indoors. Anyway, she decided to avoid danger first.

The medicine residue from the kitchen was wrapped in a handkerchief by a palace maid and taken away. The female secret guards watched this scene silently, exchanged glances and smiled mysteriously, thinking that their master was foresighted.

Ji Chenyu thought about having lunch with Shen Jiarou, so he processed the memorials at a speed as fast as a horse chasing after a horse.

Fengyi Palace

Ruan Qingling prepared the meal early and kept it warm in the pot, waiting for Ji Chenyu to arrive and serve the meal.

When Ji Chenyu came, Shen Jiarou was sitting on a phoenix chair reading a book.

"Queen."

Shen Jiarou was stunned and looked up: "The emperor is here, your concubine pays respect to the emperor."

"Stop bowing." Before she could kneel down and salute, Ji Chenyu grabbed her.

"The Queen is very hungry. I am waiting to have dinner in your palace."

"Qing Ling is ready and waiting for the Emperor to arrive."

"Well, serve the food."

Ruan Qingling quickly replied: "Yes, Your Majesty."

The two of them had their meal happily, with a warm feeling of peace and tranquility, which made Ruan Qingling, Nan Qi and others smile at each other and purse their lips.

Inside the bedroom, Ji Chenyu was lying on the phoenix couch, holding Shen Jiarou's soft body in his arms. Shen Jiarou told him everything that had happened today.

"The people in the dark discovered that a palace maid took a handkerchief and wrapped a bag of medicine residue and left."

Ji Chenyu frowned: "I didn't expect the person behind the scenes to take advantage of the situation so much. We really need to be extremely careful."

Thinking of this, Ji Chenyu lowered his head to look at Shen Jiarou who was lying on his chest.

"Rou'er, you have to believe in my heart and the friendship we have had since childhood. My brother will not harm you. If one day in the future, we have a misunderstanding because of something, if it is not our own fault, then there must be someone who is playing tricks on us and does not want us to have a good life."

"I understand. I hope that you will think twice before making any conclusions about what I do in the future."

Ji Chenyu held her hands tightly and rested his chin on her forehead.

"I will."

"Now, our relationship is even closer. With thousands of intimate exchanges like last night, our relationship is more solid than that of an average couple. In addition, I am sincere to Rou'er. We must not be separated by outsiders."

Shen Jiarou looked up, smiled at him gently and nodded. Ji Chenyu lowered his head and kissed her forehead again, and then the two of them fell asleep in each other's arms.
