Zhou Yanze looked at Yanyan's belly, which had not yet bulged, and gently placed his hand on it, fearing that it would scare the baby in her belly. He spoke softly, "Whatever Yanyan says is what it is! As long as you are happy, Yanyan!"

Yanyan looked at his hopeless appearance and felt warm in her heart, "You don't have to be so nervous. He hasn't taken shape yet! He doesn't know anything! You don't have to be so cautious!"

Zhou Yanze put his hand on it, not daring to move, with sweat on his forehead. "This is our blood, so I'm naturally nervous. Do you think he'll get hurt if I touch him like this? I always feel like if I'm not careful, he'll die!!!"

Unable to hold back her laughter, Yanyan looked at his nervous expression, feeling a sense of security in her heart, "Yanze, don't be nervous, he's not that fragile, I will protect him! He's still very young now! In a few months you'll be able to feel him kicking you!"

Zhou Yanze hugged her waist and said with a slightly choked voice, "Yanyan, I will protect you and will never let anyone hurt you! You have to grow up quickly, son! Daddy and mommy are looking forward to your coming out!" The look in his eyes towards the palace was cold and murderous!

Yanyan didn't notice his abnormality, and nodded with a smile, "I believe you! But it's better not to tell anyone about the pregnancy. I feel scared just thinking about it. After all, none of the two babies in the backyard could be saved!"

Zhou Yanze couldn't help but kiss Yanyan on the forehead before letting her go. "Don't be afraid, Yanyan. I'm here. No one can touch you and the child. Just take care of yourself. I'll be back first!"

Seeing that he was leaving so soon, Yanyan was full of doubts. She endured the bitterness in her heart and waved at him! "Yanze~~~~~!"

Zhou Yanze was also reluctant to leave. He looked at her belly which had not yet bulged, and turned away!

Seeing him like this, Yanyan couldn't hold back her tears any longer, cursing in her heart, "How could you do this? How could you do this to me? You clearly said you would treat me well for the rest of my life, how could you do this to me? You've only been here for a short time, and you're leaving already?!!!!"

Looking at his back, I felt very conflicted. On the one hand, I persuaded myself to believe him, but on the other hand, I felt that he was a liar. Now, I was even unwilling to give him a perfunctory response! I felt so depressed!

I had originally stopped vomiting, but I couldn't help feeling nauseous again. I vomited all over the place, and tears came out of my eyes. "Zhou Yanze, you have such a cruel heart! You were so good! Now you treat me like this every time? It seems like I am really dispensable!!"

Yuzhu helped the princess to sit aside, took some clean water for her to rinse her mouth, and then said, "Princess, don't let your imagination run wild. I see that the prince has you in his heart, otherwise he wouldn't be so happy! The prince must have other things to do! Just rest assured and take care of your baby!"

Yanyan endured the pain in her heart, nodded slightly and said, "I know he must have something wrong, but I just can't stop thinking about it. I always feel wronged when he is not around!"

"Since I got pregnant, I always feel that I have become too hypocritical. When I can't see him, I start to have all kinds of thoughts. I always feel like he will abandon me, and I feel sad!"

Yuzhu raised her hand and stroked the princess' back carefully. "Princess, if you don't want this to get out, the prince can't stay in the main courtyard with you all the time! There are so many eyes watching in the backyard! If you stay in the main courtyard for too long, I'm afraid the people in the backyard will get jealous again!"

Yanyan raised her eyes, wiped away her tears, and smiled bitterly, "I know everything, I just feel wronged! I know I'm just feeling uncomfortable, just let me calm down!"

"Princess, you are pregnant, don't cry too much! Please wipe your tears! Please stop crying!"

"Okay, I know. You go away! I'll lie down and rest for a while! Just let me calm down!" After watching Yuzhu go away, he raised his hand and touched his belly!

Two voices were fighting in my heart, "Wake up! The prince doesn't care about you. The most important thing for you is to protect the baby in your belly! The baby is the most important. With the baby, the women in the backyard can no longer surpass you. You just need to protect the baby now!"

Another voice spoke up, "Think about it carefully. The prince must like you, otherwise he wouldn't be so happy. Just be happy! The prince and the girls in the backyard are just playing around. You are the most important person in the prince's heart! Besides, you have a baby in your belly, so the prince will always feel sorry for you!"

"If the prince likes you, why doesn't he stay with you? He can only say some polite words. It's not that he doesn't like you, he just says some nice things to coax you. Now is not the time for you to have wild thoughts. Protecting the child is the right thing to do!"

"Of course the prince likes you, but he has to put on a show just to hide his true colors..."

"The prince doesn't like you at all. Marrying you is just a temporary measure to get your father to side with him!"

"He likes your...,"

Yanyan covered her ears and shook her head violently to drive away the voices. Finally, she said coldly, "Whether the prince really loves me or not, I will protect my child. In the last life, the child was not born and I didn't even see him. This time, I will protect him well!"

Her hand gently stroked her belly. "Mom will protect you. Just grow up obediently!"

Thinking of this, I calmed down! I stood up and walked to the bed, wrapped myself tightly in the quilt, as if I felt safe in this way, and soon I fell asleep in a daze!

Late Night Garden

Several dim lanterns lit up in the yard. Concubine Li was wearing a goose yellow dress, a goose yellow silk flower on her head, a Dongzhu hairpin, and Dongzhu earrings on her ears. Under the light, she was as beautiful as a charming fairy!

The sound of the piano was as gurgling as running water, and she was dancing slowly under the lights. Every spin, jump, raise of her hand and glance back was heart-warming!

Zhou Yanze and his housekeeper passed by and couldn't help but stop and applaud, "Pa, pa, pa! I never thought that my beloved concubine has such skills! She dances like a mountain goblin!"

Concubine Li ignored the coldness on her body, blushed and knelt forward to salute, "I pay my respects to the prince! I was just thinking about the past, so I danced in the yard!"

Zhou Yanze looked at her shivering with cold, and then he said, "Since my beloved concubine has invited you, let's go to Liuyan Pavilion today!"

Concubine Li gave a coquettish look, pulled the prince's sleeve and walked into the yard! She glanced provocatively at the two people peeking at the wall!

Looking at the two people's annoyed expressions, I felt extremely happy!

Zhou Yanze took all this into consideration but did not react!

Seeing the prince looking straight at her, Concubine Li's face was filled with joy, and her eyes were full of determination. "Master, I miss you!"

"You are such a vixen, very seductive~"

Concubine Li said coquettishly, "Master, I am your concubine, how can I be a vixen! Master, I am afraid you are seeing things~~~~~~!"

Zhou Yanze obediently followed to Liuyan Pavilion with a smile on his face!
