Shen Jingxuan thought about it and felt that leaving like this was not the best way, so she hurriedly grabbed Xie Lingxiao.

"Ah Xiao, is there no other way? Why don't you go and tell my grandparents? My mother will definitely be worried if she knows I'm leaving."

"Xuan'er, if you knew, would they still let you go out to play?"

will not.

She knew without thinking too much that this would be the result.

Xie Lingxiao smiled and shook his head, feeling that Shen Jingxuan was particularly likable at this moment.

His eyes flashed, and before Shen Jingxuan could come to her senses, he pulled her out of the house.

When Shen Jingxuan saw clearly the people standing next to the carriage, she shook off Xie Lingxiao's hand and turned to walk towards the mansion.

Xie Lingxiao raised the corners of his lips, and was stunned when Shen Jingxuan shook off his hand. He looked at Shen Jingxuan in surprise as she walked further and further away, puzzled for a moment.

He quickly caught up with Shen Jingxuan and stopped in front of her, "Why are you going back?"

"Ah Xiao, my grandparents and mother are already blocking me here. If I don't go back home, am I waiting for them to scold me?"

Scolding her in front of Xie Lingxiao and the maid, doesn't she have any shame?

Xie Lingxiao smiled and said, "Xuan'er, if they stop you today, you should give up your trip. They will not let you leave in the future either."

Shen Jingxuan was stunned when she heard this, her beautiful brows were tightly furrowed, as if she was thinking carefully about Xie Lingxiao's words.

Unless she goes on a long journey after giving birth to the child, her grandparents and her mother will always stay with her.

At that time, even if she wanted to leave, they would not allow her to leave.

Xie Lingxiao pulled Shen Jingxuan away without saying anything, and the two of them walked straight out of the house.

Shen Jingxuan saw the expressions of Mr. Shen and Mrs. Shen from afar, and she suddenly felt discouraged.

She tried to pull her hand free and return to Yuxuan Courtyard as quickly as possible.

But Xie Lingxiao seemed to have been prepared. No matter how hard she tried, her hand was still held tightly by Xie Lingxiao.

While they were pulling each other, they had already arrived in front of Old Madam Shen and Old Master Shen. Mrs. Hao stood aside and looked at Shen Jingxuan intently.

"Are you all ready?" Mr. Shen pursed his lips.

Thinking of what Xie Lingxiao said early this morning, Mr. Shen couldn't help but feel a little angry.

Shangjing City is so big, with so many mansions, but he has never seen a woman get pregnant and her husband still take her out for fun.

Xie Lingxiao is probably the only one in the capital.

"It's all ready. Xuan'er and I will leave the city now and come back when she is about to give birth."

Old Madam Shen looked worried, "Xiao'er, have you thought it through? Can Xuan'er's body handle this kind of exhausting journey?"

Shen Jingxuan lowered her head, but kept her ears perked up, listening to the conversation of several people.

Hearing what Old Madam Shen said, Shen Jingxuan raised her head and smiled, "Grandma, my body will be able to handle it."

How could she not hear at this moment that Mr. Shen and his companions already knew about this.

She turned her head to look at Xie Lingxiao and held his hand with a little force.

The arrow has to be fired when it is on the string.

Since Mr. Shen and Mrs. Shen have already known about this, shouldn't Xie Lingxiao try his best to fight for it?

He was fine, standing there with the corners of his lips curled, motionless.

Mrs. Hao stepped forward and persuaded, "Xuan'er, it's not even three months yet. How about letting Xiao'er take you out of the city when the pregnancy is stable?"

Xie Lingxiao only said in the morning that he wanted to take Shen Jingxuan out for a walk. Originally, they agreed and rejected his idea outright.

But Xie Lingxiao repeatedly assured that everything would be arranged properly and Shen Jingxuan would return safely.

Although he is the emperor and the son-in-law of the Duke of Zhenguo, there are some things that they cannot forcibly stop.

They could persuade him and tell him all the reasons why it was inappropriate, but he had already made up his mind and this was not something they could change.

Shen Jingxuan looked at Hao nervously, "Mother, I'm fine now."

Before she could continue, Xie Lingxiao interrupted her, "Mother, grandparents, don't worry, I have prepared the carriage, Xuan'er won't be troubled."

"Besides, we don't have any urgent matters to travel. If Xuan'er is tired, we can take a rest at any time and continue to play after she has rested enough."

Hao wanted to continue persuading him, but when she noticed Mr. Shen's gaze, she pursed her lips and said nothing.

Mr. Shen said with a sullen face: "Since you have made up your mind, it is inconvenient for us to continue to persuade you."

He turned to look at Shen Jingxuan and warned her, "Xuan'er, take care of your health first on the road. If you feel unwell, take good care of yourself and don't be stubborn."

"Okay." Shen Jingxuan responded.

Mr. Shen looked at her steadily for a moment, then silently withdrew his gaze.

How could he not know what was in his granddaughter's mind?

She has lived in the palace for so many years, and although she occasionally returns home, no matter how they ask, she always says that she is living well.

Only those close to her knew that she was not happy.

Seeing that the smile on her face became less and less, it was clear that she didn't want to live in the palace, and didn't want her wings to be trapped by the high walls.

Old Master Shen sighed softly, hesitated for a moment and looked at Xie Lingxiao, "Xiao'er, Xuan'er is now in your care. You must keep an eye on her to avoid any mistakes."

"She has been wild since she was young. It's inevitable that she would indulge in fun when she goes out and neglect her body. You must remind her many times and bring her back safely."

When Shen Jingxuan heard what Mr. Shen said, she felt a little sad and her eyes gradually turned red.

Xie Lingxiao's hand was held tightly by her, and a slight pain came. Xie Lingxiao squeezed her hand.

"Don't worry, grandpa and grandma. I will take good care of her and won't let anything happen to her."

After saying that, he nodded to Mr. Shen and the others, took Shen Jingxuan's hand, and led her to the carriage.

Mr. Shen, Mrs. Shen and the other two followed behind them.

The curtain of the carriage was lifted, revealing the inside.

The original sitting seats on both sides had been removed, and the entire carriage was wrapped in thick furs, with a thick fur blanket underneath.

On one side of the carriage, there are backrests, soft pillows, books, low tables... ...all the daily necessities.

Shen Jingxuan watched everything in shock. Only then did she know why Xie Lingxiao did not return last night.

It turned out that he had prepared everything and was just waiting to take her away today.

Mr. Shen and Mrs. Shen looked at each other and smiled. This made them feel much more relieved.

Hao pointed blankly at the carriage, her eyes moving back and forth between the carriage and Xie Lingxiao.

Old Madam Shen raised her hand, pressed her hand down, looked at her surprised expression and shook her head.

With Xie Lingxiao around, their worries seemed unnecessary.

Given his love for Shen Jingxuan, from the moment he decided to take Shen Jingxuan around for fun, he must have already thought of everything and made sufficient preparations.
