Shocked! The salty concubine was spoiled by the cold prince

Chapter 94 I Believe in the Prince

Pei Xu was urged by Gu Jiaorong to lie on the bed and rest.

Although he was tired, he was not sleepy at all, unlike Gu Jiaorong, who was resting with him and slept soundly in his arms.

Pei Xu looked at Gu Jiaorong's rosy little face and wanted to raise his hand to touch her cheek, but he was afraid of disturbing her, so he could only stare at her closely.

Now that the court is in turmoil, some people can no longer sit still, and there are fears that there will be more twists and turns in the future.

Although Pei Xu didn't want Gu Jiaorong to be involved, he was unable to stop it when the news of her pregnancy got out.

"What can I do to keep you from being disturbed?"

Pei Xu asked in a low voice, but the person in his arms was already asleep and could not answer his question.

It was unknown how long it had been before Gu Jiaorong slowly woke up and met Pei Xu's deep black eyes.

"My Lord, are you not asleep?"

Gu Jiaorong had a strong intuition. Seeing that the man still looked tired, she knew that he was probably looking at her like this all the time.

Pei Xu held her raised hand, placed it on his lips and kissed it gently.

"I can't sleep, I can only feel at ease when I see you."

When he is willing to say sweet words, he always seems so deep and gentle, like a pool of spring water, making people feel extremely comfortable.

If not for this, Shen Zhaohua would not have fallen for his beauty trap.

Gu Jiaorong pursed her lips and tried to pull her hand back.

"My Lord, are you making me feel guilty?"

She looked at Pei Xu with her watery eyes and lowered her voice.

"Whether it was poisoning or assassination, it has nothing to do with the prince, and I am fine now."

Pei Xu naturally knew it, but he still felt a little guilty.

"Rong'er, if I were with you..."

"Even if the prince is with me, what does it matter? Those assassins will still come, and those who want to harm me will still do so. I should also understand that if you want to protect my child, you should be more rational."

Gu Jiaorong didn't know whether he was truly in love or was just trying to seduce her, but she remained sober.

Pei Xu knew that what Gu Jiaorong said was right, and even he could not avoid these things.

Only by completely eliminating the hidden dangers can Gu Jiaorong and the child be truly safe.

"Rong'er, you're right."

Pei Xu gently stroked her tender hands, his voice dull.

He wanted to share the progress with Gu Jiaorong, but he quickly calmed down.

For some things, the less Gu Jiaorong knows, the safer she will be, and he cannot let his guard down easily.

Gu Jiaorong withdrew her hand, her face calm.

"Your Highness, I think you are too tired. You should get some sleep to stop talking nonsense."

Gu Jiaorong didn't want to attract more hatred because of Pei Xu's transformation.

Now the more Pei Xu cares about her, the more dangerous she is.

Pei Xu had no intention of letting her go, but instead held her in his arms.

"Rong'er, lie down with me for a while."

Gu Jiaorong ignored him and climbed up from him.

"Your Highness, please lie down by yourself. I'm going to eat."

Her life has been very regular recently, especially since she didn't vomit much today, so she naturally wanted to seize the opportunity to have a good meal.

Pei Xu did not stop her from getting up. He knew that Gu Jiaorong had not had an easy pregnancy and was only getting better now.

He lay on the bed, quietly watching Gu Jiaorong tidy up her clothes.

As soon as Gu Jiaorong came out of the bedroom, Shaoyao came to greet her.

"Auntie, are you hungry?"

Shaoyao looked at her face carefully and breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that she was in excellent condition.

It's not even three months yet, and the prince pulled his concubine into the bedroom as soon as he came back. She was so worried.

"I'm a little hungry. Please ask the kitchen to make some food. The prince is still resting. We can eat after he wakes up."

Gu Jiaorong nodded. She didn't move much and had a small appetite. She had no appetite recently, so the kitchen always had food prepared, for fear that she would have an appetite but not have time to cook it.

"The kitchen has already prepared it. I will bring it to you right away."

Shaoyao said with a smile, she was waiting for Gu Jiaorong to say this.

Gu Jiaorong sat on the recliner and swayed gently. She felt a lot more at ease when Pei Xu came back.

The Prince Su's Mansion is truly safe only with Pei Xu in it.

Even if this is just superficial peace, it is enough.

It was time for lunch when Pei Xu came out of his bedroom.

Gu Jiaorong was sitting under the eaves, directing Shaoyao and Yueyan to catch butterflies. Now she didn't dare to move easily, so the maid beside her had to do it for her.

When Pei Xu came out, Gu Jiaorong did not look back, so naturally she did not notice him. Instead, Shaoyao saw Pei Xu first.

When Gu Jiaorong saw that Shaoyao's movements were not so natural, she understood something and turned to look at Pei Xu.

"Your Highness has woken up and looks much more energetic."

As she spoke, she nodded, obviously very satisfied with Pei Xu's current condition.

Pei Xu saw that there were beads of sweat on her forehead, but her eyes were shining and she was obviously very happy, so he had no intention of asking her to go back to her room.

"Why didn't you tell me it was hot? I asked them to bring some more ice."

Pei Xu walked up to her, took out a handkerchief and wiped the sweat off her face, with some heartache in his tone.

"It's okay, I'm fine."

Although the weather was still hot, Gu Jiaorong was happy. She hadn't felt so relaxed for many days.

Even though Gu Jiaorong said this, Pei Xu still reached out and touched her cheek, which was much warmer than when they were in the room.

"If you can't bear it anymore, go back."

Pei Xu knew that she had been trapped in the palace for a long time. Now that she had a child and needed to recuperate, she must feel bored, so he did not force her on such a small matter.

They all tacitly agreed not to mention yesterday's assassination, but they were all thinking about it in their hearts.

The palace was not as safe as Pei Xu had thought. There were still too many outsiders, including Princess Xie Wanning and the three people sent from the palace.

Pei Xu's curled fingers moved, but finally hung down to the side.

Gu Jiaorong was unaware of his little trick and smiled with her eyes curved, "Your Highness, I'm not that fragile. Besides, it's cloudy today, so it's not that hot."

If there were no sun, she would never be able to sit here.

The thing Gu Jiaorong hates most in her life is suffering.

But soon, they no longer had to discuss whether to go back to the room.

Thunder suddenly sounded in the sky and dark clouds gathered.

"Auntie, it's going to rain soon, let's go back to the house."

Shaoyao and Yueyan came out from the flowers and wanted to help Gu Jiaorong, but then they remembered something and withdrew their hands.

Pei Xu directly picked up Gu Jiaorong, and when they stepped into the room, raindrops as big as beans fell.

"The rain is falling too fast."

Gu Jiaorong sighed, just as their peaceful life was suddenly broken.

Last night's assassin was just a precursor, like the thunder before a rainstorm.

Pei Xu understood the hidden meaning in her words and said, "No matter how fast or how hard the rain comes, I won't let you get wet."

This was his promise, and he never changed it, even though he had many difficulties.
