In the years of famine, I led a comfortable life with my husband

Although what many ministers said was true, the prince was still a prince of royal nobility after all. No matter what, the prince could not be discussed or belittled by the ministers in a few words. After all, this was related to the reputation of the royal family.

At this time, the ministers who had been arguing with their faces red and necks thick seemed to calm down and realized that their words and actions were a bit extreme. One by one, they suddenly shut their mouths silently and curled up to the side.

The Crown Prince snorted coldly upon seeing this scene, and waved his hand impatiently, saying, "Alright, let's end this morning's court session. Let's adjourn."

The morning court session ended here, but the affairs of the ministers who impeached the prince in the court did not end there.

The prince had no intention of letting these people go. After returning to his study, he became more and more angry. He simply ordered his confidants to execute those ministers who had refuted him and embarrassed him to prevent future troubles.

Shen Wenjun, who witnessed all this, appeared calm on the surface, but was actually very shocked in his heart, because the prince's methods now made him speechless. He was no longer the prince in his memory. The prince now had become even more vicious and violent.

After Xie Chengjin returned to the court this time, he immediately became a "knife" in the hands of the prince, clearing away many voices opposing him.

At the same time, Su Zhizhi also returned to her mansion in Shangjing to rest and take care of her pregnancy, and the affairs of the shop were handed over to Meng again for her to manage.

With Meng's management, the store lived up to everyone's expectations and returned to its former prosperity.

Su Peizhi returned to the capital again. After struggling for a long time, he still did not choose to go back to school. Instead, he decided to stay at home and concentrate on preparing for the imperial examination.

However, Meng's mother was busy running the shop, and Xie Chengjin was busy in the court every day. For a while, there were only Su Zhizhi and Su Peizhi in the mansion.

After all, Su Zhizhi is pregnant, and Xie Chengjin doesn't want Su Zhizhi to worry about other things all the time.

The brother and sister stayed in the mansion. Sometimes Su Zhizhi stayed in her own yard to drink tea and appreciate the flowers, and sometimes she would go to see how Su Peizhi was preparing for the exam. When she had nothing to do, she would cook some delicious cakes for Su Peizhi to taste and to satisfy her own appetite.

The days passed one by one, and there were no other major events in the capital. A long time passed in peace, and Su Zhizhi's period gradually got bigger.

Xu Miao, who became pregnant earlier than Su Zhizhi, is about to give birth.

Su Zhizhi mentioned many times that she wanted to go see Xu Miao, but was rejected by Xie Chengjin every time. Although there was nothing else happening in the capital at the moment, if Su Zhizhi and Xu Miao had an accident together, it would be hard to judge who was right and who was wrong.

Therefore, Su Zhizhi could only endure it, but not long after, Su Zhizhi received the news that Xu Miao had given birth.

"A Jin! How is Princess Changle?" When Su Zhizhi received the news, she was so anxious that she ran around in the mansion. Childbirth is a life-threatening matter for a woman. At this time, Su Zhizhi ignored the doctor's instructions and kept walking around in the house.

Xie Chengjin felt helpless upon seeing this, but he couldn't help but comfort her, "Zhizhi, don't worry. Princess Changle is being watched over by the imperial physicians in the palace, and Shen Wenjun is also with her. You don't have to worry too much."

"It's easy for you to say, but what if... No, I still have to go and take a look." Su Zhizhi said as she was about to pack up and go out.

Xie Chengjin quickly grabbed Su Zhizhi's arm and said, "Don't forget, you're pregnant now. If you get hurt, what will you let me do?"

Xie Chengjin was also extremely helpless towards Su Zhizhi, but he had no choice but to serve her carefully.

Just as the two were arguing, a person who looked like a maid ran in from outside the mansion gate. Su Zhizhi took a closer look and found that it was clearly the maid beside Xu Miao.

Su Zhizhi suddenly became very nervous, "Why are you here? How is your master?"

When the maid saw Su Zhizhi, she immediately smiled happily, "Don't worry, Madam, our princess is doing well, and both mother and child are safe!"

Su Zhizhi felt relieved, "Are you serious?"

"Of course. How dare I lie to you, Madam? The princess just gave birth, and she sent me here to inform you so that you wouldn't worry." The maid looked at Su Zhizhi's appearance and knew that she had come at the right time.

After the maid left, Xie Chengjin helped Su Zhizhi sit down. He looked at her with helplessness, anger and amusement, "Why, are you relieved now?"

Su Zhizhi suddenly felt a little embarrassed, but she still said stubbornly, "What's wrong? I was worried too. Now that Princess Changle has given birth safely, I can rest assured. Let's go to the princess's mansion to visit her in a couple of days. I haven't seen Princess Changle for a long time."

Xie Chengjin thought for a moment and finally agreed. "The princess is giving birth, so I should go and visit her. But you have to rest well for the next two days. Don't get too excited and disturb the fetus."

"Oh, I know my limits, so stop nagging me." Xie Chengjin kept repeating the same few words over and over again, and Su Zhizhi's ears were almost worn out from hearing them.

Two days passed in a flash. Su Zhizhi got up early, washed up, and set off for the princess's mansion with Xie Chengjin, carrying the gifts she had specially prepared.

In the carriage, Su Zhizhi looked outside through the window, a hint of longing in her eyes. Xie Chengjin saw Su Zhizhi's expression and recalled what had happened to Su Zhizhi since she became pregnant, and he couldn't help feeling a little guilty.

The two of them soon arrived at the princess's mansion, which was already bustling with people. Among these people, Su Zhizhi even saw people from the East Palace.

Considering Su Zhizhi's health, Xie Chengjin took Su Zhizhi to bypass the congested front door and come to the princess's mansion.

In the yard, Xie Chengjin chose to wait inside the yard, while Su Zhizhi, accompanied by a maid, entered Xu Miao's room.

The room was steaming hot, without a trace of coolness. Even though Su Zhizhi was not wearing any thick clothes, she began to sweat soon after entering.

Coming in front of Xu Miao, Su Zhizhi looked at Xu Miao's pale face, and couldn't help but show a look of pity on her face, "Are you okay?"

When Xu Miao heard the voice, he turned his head and looked at Su Zhizhi. His eyes lit up instantly, "Zhizhi, why are you here? Your belly is so big, why don't you go back home and have a good rest?" As Xu Miao spoke, he sat up with difficulty, leaned against the head of the bed, and smiled weakly at Su Zhizhi.
