Qin Beihuang, who was following nearby, also witnessed this scene and was stunned.

Why do I dry heave?

Qin Shuangchi's eyes were full of worry, thinking that it was because he had been poisoned just now and the toxin had not been cleared yet.

"Hurry up and get in the carriage!"

Jiang Ningwan nodded and immediately got on the carriage.

Qin Shuangchi took out the medicine box, re-bandaged her arm, and checked it. "The wound hasn't turned black again, so the poison shouldn't be too deep."

"There are no antidote herbs here. You can prescribe the medicine and I will ask Xiao Lan to go to the nearby town to buy some."

Jiang Ningwan was a little absent-minded, touching his chest, his heart pounding.

"What's wrong with you?" Qin Shuangchi saw that she looked unwell and became more worried.

Jiang Ningwan came back to her senses and grabbed his hand, "I... I'm not poisoned, I might be pregnant."

When these words came out, Qin Shuangchi's pupils trembled, "Really?"

Jiang Ningwan thought about it and realized that their first marriage consummation was in Chunyu Tower, more than a month ago.

She is now clearly showing symptoms.

"Let's go back to Kyoto first."

Qin Shuangchi's eyes fell on her lower abdomen, and seeing her covered in blood, he was extremely anxious. If she was pregnant and had to fight a big battle, how could her body withstand it?

"Let's set off and return to Beijing!" Qin Shuangchi gave the order immediately, not wanting to delay any longer.

Fortunately, there was a carriage, and Qin Shuangchi spread all the cushions in the carriage for Jiang Ningwan so that she could lie down more comfortably.

"If you're tired, take a nap. I'll call you when we get to Kyoto."

Qin Shuangchi poured a glass of water and handed it to her.

Jiang Ningwan nodded.

He fell asleep in the carriage on the rest of the journey.

After arriving in Kyoto, they immediately returned to the Prince of Chu's Mansion. However, Jiang Ningwan was so tired that she could not open her eyes. After taking a bath, she lay down to rest.

Qin Shuangchi sent for Doctor Zhang on the pretext that Jiang Ningwan was injured.

Taking the pulse of Jiang Ningwan who was sleeping soundly.

Doctor Zhang's expression suddenly changed, "General Jiang...she's pregnant!"

At that moment, Qin Shuangchi almost stood up.

"She was poisoned in Qingfeng Mountain. Will it endanger her health and the child?"

Doctor Zhang smiled and said comfortingly, "Your Highness, rest assured. General Jiang is in much better health than an ordinary person. The poison is not serious. Although there are some effects, they are not significant."

"I'll prescribe an antidote. You'll be fine in two days."

Qin Shuangchi was still worried and asked, "If there's no effect, then why is she so sleepy? Is there really nothing wrong with her body?"

Doctor Zhang nodded. "It's the toxins that are causing the problem, but it's also because she's pregnant and fighting bandits, which has exacerbated her fatigue. Just let her get more rest."

"Everyone experiences different symptoms when they are pregnant. Your Highness, there is no need to worry."

Qin Shuangchi felt a little relieved.

Then he warned: "Don't let anyone know that she is pregnant."

"You only need to write a prescription, and I will have someone go to Huichun Hall to get the herbs."

Doctor Zhang nodded, "I understand! Don't worry, Your Highness!"

Many people knew that Jiang Ningwan had taken the Ningjin recipe when she was still in Prince Yi's Mansion.

It was impossible for her to have children.

What's more, the King of Chu is disabled in both legs. Under such circumstances, Jiang Ningwan is pregnant. If the news gets out, it will probably cause a big disaster.

He knew the seriousness of the matter and would never reveal any information.

After seeing off Doctor Zhang, Qin Shuangchi stayed by the bed, looking at the fallen leaves blown by the wind outside the window, feeling both happy and worried.

It may be possible to hide it for two or three months now, but it will be impossible to hide it once the pregnancy becomes apparent.

……

Jiang Ningwan slept for a whole day and night.

When I woke up, it was already noon the next day.

Qin Shuangchi was still standing by, warming up the medicine on the stove. "You're finally awake. Have you slept enough?"

He poured out the medicine and came to the bedside to feed her.

Jiang Ningwan looked solemn. After taking two sips of the medicine, she looked up at him and said, "I'm pregnant."

"Ah."

Jiang Ningwan felt it. She had never been so sleepy before.

I still feel groggy after sleeping for so long.

"But if the news of my pregnancy gets out, the fact that your leg has been healed won't be concealed anymore."

She could feel that the entire Chu Palace was guarding this news with great caution, which meant that this matter was not simple.

It doesn't just attract enemies.

Qin Shuangchi blew on the medicine and continued to feed her, "You take good care of yourself. Leave this matter to me, I'll find a solution."

Just then, Xiao Lan knocked on the door and said, "My Lord, Madam, the palace has sent a reward."

"The Emperor said that since Madam was injured, there was no need to report to the palace. She could just focus on recuperating. He even sent a lot of medicinal herbs."

"Not only that, I also transferred 30,000 elite soldiers to the Lingwei Army for training for Madam."

Seeing that the emperor values ​​her more and more, she is pregnant at this time. I hope it will not hinder her future.

"understood."

"What about Qin Beihuang? Did the emperor say anything?"

Qin Beihuang failed in his bandit suppression campaign this time, so the emperor should hold him accountable.

"The Emperor reprimanded him for rushing there without thoroughly investigating the situation at Qingfeng Mountain. He was nearly killed there. These 30,000 troops were transferred from Qin Beihuang."

Hearing this, Jiang Ningwan was finally satisfied, "That's good."

Coming back to his senses, Jiang Ningwan suddenly thought of the Boundless Holy Fruit and quickly asked, "Where's the Boundless Holy Fruit?"

Qin Shuangchi opened the box next to him and handed it to her, "Here it is."

"Once you enter the Chu Palace, you won't get lost."

Jiang Ningwan breathed a sigh of relief. "I still need to prepare some herbs! Once I have them, I can give them to you!"

Qin Shuangchi smiled faintly: "No rush."

"No! I'm in a hurry!" Jiang Ningwan finished drinking the medicine and immediately got up from the bed. "I'm going out for a while."

Qin Shuangchi saw that he couldn't stop her and thought it would be good to go out and get some fresh air after sleeping for two days, so he immediately ordered Xiao Lan to take people to follow him.

Jiang Ningwan took a carriage directly to Huichuntang and searched for medicinal herbs in the warehouse. Some of the herbs were missing.

But it's on the way, it will take some time to be delivered.

She left a list for Doctor Hong, "Please keep these herbs for me when they arrive."

"it is good."

As soon as he left Huichun Hall, he ran into Shen Lanyi who was shopping on the street.

Jiang Ningwan was surprised, "It's rare that you actually go out for a stroll."

Shen Lianyi smiled and stopped in front of a small stall to look at the jewelry. "Aren't you out for a stroll too?"

"Is everything going well at Qingfeng Mountain?"

The two of them started chatting together.

Jiang Ningwan recalled the man in black, "My things were robbed because I was short of money. Who else besides me knows that the Wuya Holy Fruit is in Qingfeng Mountain?"

Shen Lianyi did not hide it and said calmly, "Duke Jiang."

"He was asking about the Boundless Holy Fruit in the black market and bought the information from me."

Hearing this, Jiang Ningwan was shocked. "You sold the information to him? How much did you get?"

Shen Lianyi replied, "Ten thousand taels."

"I bought your Wuya Holy Fruit for thirty thousand taels. Just give me twenty thousand and I'll save you some money."

Jiang Ningwan was a little angry at first, but after hearing this, her anger disappeared, "Okay."

Shen Lianyi gave her a strange look and said, "I thought he was helping you find the Boundless Holy Fruit."

"Why are you surprised?"

Hearing this, Jiang Ningwan snorted coldly: "He has no idea that I'm looking for the Boundless Holy Fruit. He wants this thing for Jiang Xiru."

If Jiang Xiru wants to heal her leg, this Wuya Holy Fruit will also be effective.

While chatting with Shen Lanyi, a carriage suddenly stopped beside them.

Turning around, I saw that it was the carriage of the Duke's Mansion.

The curtain was lifted, and Jiang Bingde's serious face came into view.

"Ning Wan, come up for a moment."
