Back to the day I married my second wife, I turned around and married my ex-husband's uncle

Chapter 232: Pregnancy Diagnosed in Public at the Palace Banquet

At that moment, Jiang Ningwan's head was buzzing. She looked at him in disbelief and kept doubting her ears.

Until Qin Beihuang continued: "I am willing to help you this time, as a repayment for your life-saving grace."

"This child is a bastard. You will surely die."

"But if this child is mine, then it is of royal blood. No matter what, you and the child will be able to keep your lives."

"If the King of Chu doesn't want you anymore, I will be responsible for you and the child."

"I do what I say!"

Saying this seriously, Qin Beihuang seemed to have made a solemn and huge decision.

He was willing to acknowledge a child that was not his.

What other man in the world can do this?

But when he saw Jiang Ningwan was stunned for a moment, her expression did not show the expected emotion, but her eyes became even colder.

Even more disgusted.

Jiang Ningwan raised her eyebrows and sneered, "Do you think you're great?"

"You accepted this bastard you called him. Do you think there is no better man in the world than you?"

"I'll be moved to tears, won't I?"

"The King of Chu doesn't want me anymore, are you responsible?" Jiang Ningwan couldn't help but sneer when she said this.

"You're responsible? You must have been kicked in the head by a donkey!"

Seeing her reaction, Qin Beihuang was shocked and surprised, thinking that Jiang Ningwan didn't believe him.

"I didn't lie to you! I can do what I promised you!"

He looked extremely determined.

Jiang Ningwan smiled contemptuously and her eyes fell on Lu Qingheng who was fighting with Xie Chenyuan in the square.

"You must have promised a lot of things, right? You promised me, you promised Lu Qingheng, ask yourself, what have you done?"

"Or are you and Lu Qingheng colluding to plot against me?"

She treated every word Qin Beihuang said now as bullshit.

After saying that, she turned around and was about to leave.

Qin Beihuang grabbed her arm and said in a heavy tone, "Back then... I was the one who let you down."

"I'm sincerely giving you advice on the matter of the child. I have no intention of harming you."

"Although I'm not the child's biological father, having a father of royal blood is better than having an ordinary one, right?"

This is obviously the best way.

Jiang Ningwan shook his hand away in disgust, looking impatient.

"That's enough! Who do you think you are to be the father of my child?"

What bad luck!

Jiang Ningwan quickly returned to the hall, and Qin Beihuang didn't dare to chase her.

Qin Beihuang, who was standing under the eaves, punched the wall hard, unable to figure out what he had said wrong!

Why is Jiang Ningwan so stubborn!

Once her pregnancy is exposed, you will know how serious the consequences will be!

Soon, Xie Chenyuan, Lu Qingheng and others returned to the hall.

The emperor asked doubtfully, "Who will win and who will lose?"

Lu Qingheng lowered his head, his expression gloomy, "I lost!"

"The Second Prince's skills are indeed extraordinary!"

Xie Chenyuan also felt a little embarrassed, "You two let me go!"

The emperor had a smile on his face, but he looked obviously unhappy.

If we lose two people in a row, wouldn't people laugh at Daning State for having no one?

"By the way, don't you want to spar with Jiang Ningwan? Why don't you go and have a fight?"

The emperor personally called out Jiang Ningwan, and Jiang Ningwan stiffened slightly.

"Your Majesty, I have been feeling unwell recently."

The emperor's face darkened. "Your injury hasn't healed after all this time? The Second Prince has come from afar, so just exchange some sparring with him. It won't be a problem if you don't stop."

Many people present heard the emperor's intention.

Jiang Ningwan must not lose the face of the Daning Kingdom, she must compete and must win!

But Jiang Ningwan still refused to agree.

"Your Majesty, please forgive me. I have indeed been feeling unwell recently, and I am afraid I will lose even if I compete with the Second Prince."

"Why not send someone else to spar with the Second Prince?"

Jiang Zhouye immediately stepped forward to help, "Your Majesty, I am willing to give it a try."

Xie Chenyuan also sensed something was amiss and quickly said, "I'm tired today too. There's no rush to spar right now. I can go spar with General Jiang another day."

But Jiang Ningwan refused twice in a row, and the emperor was already dissatisfied.

At this time, the Queen said again: "General Jiang is not feeling well, so don't force it, but don't be careless. What if the previous injury left a root cause? We should send a royal physician to take a look."

As he said this, he hinted at Qin Chengqian.

Qin Chengqian immediately went to summon the imperial physician.

The imperial physicians arrived soon after, and they were Doctor Xu and Doctor Zhang.

Jiang Ningwan frowned and looked nervous.

"General Jiang, please extend your right hand." The imperial physician waited respectfully on the side.

"No need to trouble the imperial physician, I'm fine." Jiang Ningwan lowered his head and refused to extend his hand.

Many people in the hall were watching this scene, wondering why Jiang Ningwan refused to take his pulse.

Lu Qingheng fanned the flames, "It's just a pulse check, why is General Jiang so frightened that he's sweating?"

"Is there something you can't tell the public?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the palace servants brought in new dishes, and Jiang Ningwan also had a portion.

When the lid was opened, a strong smell of sheep wafted in.

Jiang Ningwan couldn't help it at all, she felt nauseous and covered her face with her hands to retch.

At this moment, everyone in the hall was shocked.

I smelled the mutton in front of me, and it didn't have that strong smell. Why did Jiang Ningwan react so strongly?

Lu Qingheng exclaimed, "General Jiang, your symptoms could mean you're pregnant, right?"

As soon as these words were spoken, a low voice of discussion could be heard in the hall.

"Pregnant? Impossible."

"I remember Jiang Ningwan took the Ningjin Formula and became infertile."

"And the King of Chu isn't...they can't possibly have a child!"

Hearing these discussions, the emperor couldn't help but frown and look unhappy.

The Queen immediately rebuked her, "The Crown Princess, please be careful with your words! Pregnancy is a happy occasion, but if it happens to General Jiang, it's a capital crime!"

"The King of Chu has a leg disease, and the imperial physician once said that he could not have children! Jiang Ningwan can't possibly be pregnant!"

Lu Qingheng lowered his head and said, "I made a mistake."

"However, the imperial physician is right here. Why not take your pulse and clarify the matter, and silence the gossips?"

"Don't let my careless words spread and cause rumors that are unfavorable to the King of Chu."

The Queen nodded, "Indeed! Jiang Ningwan, please let the imperial physician take your pulse!"

"It will also prove your innocence."

Jiang Ningwan clutched her sleeves tightly, extremely nervous, with cold sweat oozing from her forehead.

He lowered his head and was reluctant to extend his hand.

Qin Beihuang stared at her expression and sighed helplessly. He could no longer hide it. Let's see what she will do!

Seeing that Jiang Ningwan hadn't moved, the emperor coldly ordered, "Jiang Ningwan! Let the imperial physician take your pulse!"

The emperor gave the order, and Jiang Ningwan could only extend his wrist.

The imperial physician immediately took her pulse.

The entire Taiming Palace was silent, and everyone stared at the imperial physician, waiting for the result.

In just a moment, the imperial physician's expression changed suddenly.

He quickly stood up and knelt before the emperor, his voice trembling with nervousness.

"General Jiang, you are indeed more than two months pregnant!"
