After marrying the heirless prince, I gave birth to three children

Xiao Hong nodded and said, "Arrange some people to secretly keep an eye on Pei Chen. If something really happens in Nanzhou or he discovers something..."

"kill!"

Xiao Hong's hand slid across his neck, and the murderous intent in his eyes was undisguised.

Pei Chen is not a fool. Since you cannot be used by him, you are an enemy and there is no need for you to stay alive.

The young man was Li Ze, the eldest son of Minister Li and Xiao Hong's cousin. He smiled broadly, "Your Highness is wise."

The corners of Xiao Hong's lips curled up, his expression unable to hide his pride and complacency.

Minister Li pondered for a moment and said, "Your Highness, the Wei family is about to enter the capital. The Wei family's young general has a legitimate sister who is the same age as Your Highness."

Xiao Hong frowned, "Uncle, you want me to marry her? She's Xiao Ji's cousin."

He likes women with big breasts lately and has no interest in marrying anyone else.

Minister Li said, "The Marquis of Zhenbei has returned to the capital, and the Zhenbei Army is now under the control of General Wei. Your Highness married her for the support of the Wei family, not because he has to treat her with respect."

"If you don't like her, just marry her and keep her. When Your Highness ascends the throne, you can favor whoever you want."

Xie Yao's face quickly flashed through Xiao Hong's mind.

By then, wouldn't he...

He was persuaded and said, "Just do as my uncle says."

……

Xie Yao asked Zhu Xin to find another doctor in the morning, and Xiao Ji brought the female doctor to her in the afternoon.

"Your Highness."

Xie Yao stood up, stunned.

Your Highness...are you going to have a confrontation?

Xiao Ji remained calm and said, "You said you were feeling unwell yesterday, so I asked a female doctor to come and take a look at you... I think you're injured."

Xie Yao heard the hidden meaning and blushed immediately, "No, no!"

She was sure.

Her back pain and leg weakness had long since subsided, not to mention whether she had any other injuries.

Your Highness really underestimates the Holy Body of Pregnancy.

Xie Yao was certain, but with a slight resistance, Xiao Ji was still worried, "It would be good to check if he's safe."

Xie Yao had no choice but to extend her hand.

The female doctor carefully felt the pulse and said after a while: "The Crown Princess is in good health."

"Really?" Xiao Ji asked again.

The female doctor said firmly, "It's absolutely true."

The Crown Princess is much healthier than ordinary women.

Xie Yao immediately smiled at Xiao Ji, "Your Highness, are you relieved?"

Xiao Ji nodded, with a hint of meaning in his eyes.

It was only at night that Xie Yao knew the purpose of Xiao Ji's special invitation to a female doctor.

He has excellent physical strength and is addicted to food.

Upon learning that Xie Yao was in good health, he began to pester her and indulged her every night.

Xie Yao had no choice but to have someone prepare some nourishing soup to prevent Xiao Ji from losing control and hurting his body.

She only has two years left to live, so we have to take good care of her and protect her and the child.

Xie Yao originally wanted to use this method to make Xiao Ji take care of his health, but she didn't expect that he would see it as encouragement and dissatisfaction.

Xiao Ji worked harder every night.

In the next few days, the capital was peaceful.

It's raining again.

Xie Yao leaned on the couch, as if boneless, reading a book, while Xiao Ji was reading the letter sent by Pei Chen from Nanzhou.

The letter seemed to only report the water situation in Nanzhou, the people, and the disaster relief situation, but Xiao Ji could see more information than just the surface.

They have their own set of encrypted information.

As he watched, Xiao Ji's face darkened and a chill ran through his body.

Xie Yao sat up straight, "Your Highness, is the situation not good?"

In the previous life, the destruction of the Nanzhou dam was concealed by Nanzhou officials for a full month.

A month later, when the news reached the capital, the disaster in Nanzhou had become extremely serious, with an epidemic raging and people starving everywhere.

The second prince Xiao Hong volunteered to provide disaster relief.

However, he ruthlessly trapped the people infected with the plague in the city and burned them alive. He also lied to the court about military intelligence and sought credit for his achievements.

Later, a traveling doctor developed an antidote and saved many people. Song Wenbo also had the recipe, so she wrote it down.

This is what was given to Zhao Ying before.

I hope that with Pei Chen here and her preparations, those people can be spared from unnecessary disaster!

"Yes." Xiao Ji nodded. "The Nanzhou River has risen sharply, and the dam has cracked."

"Pei Chen and Si Dong personally dived into the water to see that the embankment wasn't filled with river sand, but weeds."

"I think the dam will collapse in the next few days."

If we hadn't been prepared in advance, countless innocent people would have died if the dam had collapsed...

Xiao Ji clenched his fists, and a cold light suddenly appeared in his eyes.

This is Xiao Hong!

"What about the people in Nanzhou?" Although Xie Yao knew that Pei Chen would make sure they were properly resettled, she still couldn't help but show concern.

"Evacuation arrangements are underway. Residents living in low-lying areas are being relocated to higher ground, and the river downstream is being cleared."

Xiao Ji paused, then continued, "Even the granaries in Nanzhou...are mostly empty. Thanks to Yaoyao and the Zhao family for stockpiling food and medicinal herbs, they provided timely assistance."

The situation is so serious!

The Nanzhou incident has reached the capital, and when the matter is settled, no Nanzhou official involved will escape prosecution, and there's even the possibility of implicating the mastermind in the capital...

These people will definitely attack Pei Chen.

Xie Yao frowned, "Your Highness, the Marquis of Zhenbei is in danger."

"Yes." Xiao Ji nodded. "Crown Princess, don't worry. Pei Chen has been practicing martial arts since he was young and has great strength. Not many people can hurt him."

Born with great strength?

Xie Yao widened her eyes in surprise and forgot to explain the "worry" for a moment.

After thinking for a while, she said, "Your Highness, could you ask your people to help me protect Sister Ying? She..."

"Don't worry." Xiao Ji nodded, "She is your sister, I won't let anything happen to her."

A few days later.

Before Xiao Ji received the second letter from Pei Chen and Si Dong, an urgent message arrived in the capital over an distance of 800 miles.

The flood in Nanzhou destroyed the dike that was just built last year.

Fortunately, Pei Chen, the Marquis of Zhenbei, was far-sighted and evacuated the people in advance, so the collapse of the dam did not injure too many people.

But it still flooded the city of Nanzhou and destroyed the homes of countless people.

The news spread throughout the capital like the wind, and the entire city was shocked.

The emperor was furious and ordered Pei Chen to investigate the matter thoroughly. The Dali Temple immediately sent people to Nanzhou to assist in the investigation.

But within a day, there was a sense of panic in the capital.

The attention of countless people in the capital was focused on Nanzhou.

"Your Highness."

Si Nan walked into the house in the night with a heavy expression, "The carrier pigeon hasn't returned yet."

The agreed time for delivering the letter had passed, but the carrier pigeon had not returned.

Something must have happened!

Xiao Ji looked at the gloomy and rainy night with an equally unhappy expression.

"No news from Sidong either?" Xiao Ji asked.

Si Nan shook his head, "Your Highness, I'm afraid Si Dong is either tripped or exposed."

His Highness has four people in the east, south, west and north, and he is the only one who serves His Highness all year round, while the other three are hidden in the dark.

Xiao Ji pondered for a moment and said, "Wait one more day and don't act rashly."

If we act rashly, it may backfire.

"Your Highness." Xie Yao knew that Xiao Ji didn't like outsiders entering the study, so she took the food box from Zhu Xin and walked in.

Xiao Ji frowned slightly, walked quickly forward and touched Xie Yao's hand, and only felt relieved after confirming that it was warm.

Xie Yao said gently, "Your Highness hasn't eaten for a day. Please eat something first." Your Highness's small body must be taken good care of.

"Your Highness, rest assured. The Marquis of Zhenbei will be safe and sound and return safely."

Xiao Ji paused, then reached out and held Xie Yao in his arms without any lust.

When he smelled the scent of Xie Yao, he felt inexplicably calm.

Just ...

His Crown Princess really cares about Pei Chen.

But he still lowered his eyes and said, "Don't worry, Yaoyao, the Marquis of Zhenbei will be fine."
