Traveling through time and space to become a concubine: I just want to live a leisurely life

After Nanny Qin and everyone in the yard came over to express their congratulations, they all left tactfully.

They left the space to Shen Jingyi and King Xuan.

King Xuan sat beside the bed, looking at the child who had fallen asleep.

With a gentle smile on his face, he whispered, "The child looks a lot like you."

Shen Jingyi nodded. From the perspective of genetics, it would be normal for him to look like her.

Afterwards, King Xuan showed an expression of guilt and heartache again, and he gently stroked Shen Jingyi's face.

Her fingertips were as light as feathers, yet they carried an apology that could not be concealed.

"Sorry, I'm late!"

"I forgive you."

Shen Jingyi's voice is like a spring breeze, sweet and soothing.

She reached out and gently touched the stubble on his chin. The hard touch felt like prickles, and she couldn't help but frown slightly.

But she did not seem unhappy about it. Instead, she had a playful smile and a firm and sincere look in her eyes.

She didn't pretend to be generous and said, 'I know you have something important to do, I don't blame you.'

Instead, he took the initiative to say "I forgive you", and these words were particularly touching on this morning.

When King Xuan heard this, the guilt in his heart was slightly relieved.

He looked into her eyes, and through that gentle gaze, he felt deep understanding and tolerance.

"From now on, I will never let you suffer any injustice again."

King Xuan suddenly spoke seriously, with firm determination flashing in his eyes.

Shen Jingyi knew from the look on his face that this guy definitely didn't know anything yet.

Then, her eyes flashed and she showed a sly smile.

"You haven't met the butler yet."

"No! I'll come to your place as soon as I get back home. I'll have to go to the palace to see my father later.

So I don’t have time to see him.”

As King Xuan spoke, he thought of the question at the beginning.

He stared at her, concern flashing in his eyes, "Why did you give birth prematurely? I remember you were supposed to give birth in half a month."

"This is what I'm going to tell you next."

Shen Jingyi took a deep breath and tried to make herself look calm.

"We accidentally discovered that Aunt Zhao, who was beside the princess, was acting suspiciously.

Chun Liu was curious, so she followed them and found out that Aunt Zhao was going to hire a killer to kill me. They agreed to do it on the night of the Lantern Festival. "

These words were like a bolt from the blue, and King Xuan's face instantly turned gloomy.

His brows knitted tightly, and he gritted his teeth and asked, "What did you say? The princess wants to assassinate you?"

He was very angry, and obviously did not expect that Chu Mengyao would directly look for a killer now.

She used to hide behind others and instigate others, but I didn't expect that she would become even more aggressive now.

"Yes, she wants to kill me!"

Shen Jingyi felt the grievances in her heart surge up, and her tone was full of anger and helplessness.

"That's why I came to you to borrow some help."

After hearing this, King Xuan felt guilty again, and he said angrily, "You should have told me directly."

As a husband, he failed to protect him and he felt very guilty.

Shen Jingyi stroked his face and said comfortingly: "You are so busy, and I can handle it myself."

"Is that why you gave birth prematurely?" King Xuan asked doubtfully.

"Of course not, don't worry, there's more to come!"

Then, Shen Jingyi continued, "A midwife was also bribed.

I drank a cup of tea while I was hiding in the backyard, and maybe that cup of tea was the problem.

After that, not long after that, I was about to give birth.

Moreover, the midwife sat on my hands and feet during the birth.”

When Shen Jingyi said this, resentment and anger emerged in her eyes. She bit her lower lip and said aggrievedly: "You almost couldn't see me and the child."

Although her voice was not loud, it was like a sharp sword, piercing King Xuan's heart.

King Xuan looked at her and a strong anger burned in his heart.

He couldn't imagine that Yi'er was in such danger last night.

He held Shen Jingyi in his arms, gently stroked her back, and whispered, "I'm sorry for letting you go through such danger."

"I'm fine now. Fortunately, I found it early and the baby was born safely."

Shen Jingyi spoke softly, feeling his warm embrace, and the hatred in her heart gradually eased.

"Yier..." King Xuan pushed her away slightly and looked into her eyes seriously, "I will not let you and the child get hurt.

I will give you an explanation for this matter. I will not treat either the princess or Aunt Zhao lightly anymore."

Shen Jingyi looked into his eyes and nodded, with trust in her eyes: "Well, I believe you."

Then, Shen Jingyi took a deep breath and said, "There is one more thing I haven't said yet."

She paused for a moment before continuing, "Last night, the housekeeper came and said... a group of thieves broke into the main courtyard.

The princess was injured, and Zhao Ma, who was beside her, also died."

Shen Jingyi lowered her head when she said this, which effectively concealed the fleeting light in her eyes.

But King Xuan thought she was frightened.

"It's okay. They deserve it. I'll go check it out later."

There was a coldness in King Xuan's voice and the muscles on his face were slightly tense. It was obvious that he was very dissatisfied with the palace guards.

When did the patrols and security of the palace become so lax? How come anyone can come in?
