The princess was fed contraceptive soup on the day of the marriage exchange, and she went crazy

Concubine Hua didn't seem to notice her hesitation and continued, "Is there anything missing from Prince Yi's Mansion?"

She seemed still very worried and thought for a moment: "How about I ask His Majesty for permission to come to Prince Yi's Mansion and stay there for a few months to take care of you?"

Sheng Nanzhi's heart trembled, and she quickly said, "Mother, this is against the rules."

How could a concubine live in the prince's palace while the emperor is still alive?

This is true.

Concubine Hua frowned and remained silent for a long time, then gave up. She gently touched Sheng Nanzhi's belly, her eyes curved, "Make sure you grow up safely and be born healthy."

After she finished muttering, she reluctantly withdrew her hand.

Sheng Nanzhi's eyelashes trembled, but she said nothing.

Concubine Hua then continued, "I have already informed my father and my brother of this matter. Tomorrow morning, they will send some highly skilled guards to protect the palace. Most importantly, they will protect you."

"Ever since Huaizhi's incident, the guards at Prince Yi's mansion seem to have slacked off, and they even let an assassin in. I will hold them accountable for this."

"I originally wanted His Majesty to send guards, but after much thought, I feel that my father and my brother's men are more trustworthy."

"Don't worry, I will never let anyone get the chance to touch you again."

Concubine Hua looked at Jin Xin and lowered her voice, saying, "And Jin Xin, you can trust her completely. Although Jin Xin is ostensibly Huai Zhi's concubine, she actually has no close relationship with Huai Zhi."

"Before Huaizhi opened his own mansion, I felt that it needed a trustworthy mistress to manage it, so I gave Jinxin to him. I originally thought that if Huaizhi was interested, he could take Jinxin into his room."

"But after Huaizhi knew my plan, he told me that I could manage the affairs of the mansion, but there was no need to bring her into the room."

"He has always had his own ideas. I can't change his mind, so I can only let him do what he wants."

Sheng Nanzhi's eyelashes trembled, and she felt a little surprised.

Jin Xin is only a concubine in name only, but not actually a concubine?

This was somewhat beyond her expectations.

But she also immediately realized, what does all this have to do with her?

"it is good."

Sheng Nanzhi agreed, and kept thinking in her mind when she should tell Concubine Hua that she did not want the child in her belly.

But she couldn't speak until Concubine Hua left.

Sheng Nanzhi pressed her forehead, probably because there were very few people who were kind to her in the past years, and she was a little unable to deal with other people's kindness.

Once someone treats her well, she becomes at a loss. If someone treats her well, she always wants to return the favor tenfold.

Forget it.

Sheng Nanzhi took a deep breath. Even if she didn't take the initiative to do anything, the child might not be able to stay.

As long as she makes her pregnancy public, there will always be someone who can't help but take action against the child in her belly.

If someone attacks her and causes her to lose the child, then... she can't be blamed, right?

Sheng Nanzhi thought about it and looked towards the dormitory.

She had a quarrel with Shi Huaizhi before, and now even though she knew that Shi Huaizhi must have taken the medicine and fell asleep again, she didn't want to sleep on the same bed with him at all.

Sheng Nanzhi's eyelashes trembled, and she wanted to call someone to come and clean up the yard.

Anyway, she is pregnant now, so she said she can't stand the smell of medicine in the house.

As soon as she went out, she saw Yuanbao walking quickly in from outside the yard.

"princess."

Yuan Bao stepped forward quickly and lowered his voice: "The master said that he had important matters to attend to tonight and left the house first. I would like to ask the princess to help cover it up."

Sheng Nanzhi sneered. Why did he hide the fact from her that she was pregnant, and then forcefully asked her to keep the child? After arguing with her, why did he still think that she would cooperate with him and cover up for him?

But she quickly came to her senses.

When Huai left the house?

Doesn't that mean she doesn't have to face him at least tonight?

That's great, she doesn't have to ask the servants to clean up the new yard for her now.

It was the middle of the night now, and it seemed a bit unkind to ask someone to get up and clean up her new yard.

"understood."

Sheng Nanzhi raised her eyelids and said, "Tell your master for me. I can cover up for him, but he owes me one, and I will ask for a reward."

"I'll discuss the details of the reward with him when he comes back tomorrow."

After Sheng Nanzhi finished speaking, she turned around and went back to the house. Sure enough, Shi Huaizhi was no longer on the bed. Sheng Nanzhi undressed, got into bed, and soon fell asleep.

In the yard, Yuanbao wiped the sweat from his forehead and quickly walked to a corner shaded by a tree: "Master."

Under the moonlight, who else could that person standing hidden in the shade of the tree be but Shi Huaizhi?

Yuan Bao raised his head and glanced at Shi Huaizhi's face. "Master, if you want the princess to go back to her room to rest, why not just say so? Why did you say you had something important to deal with and ask the princess to cover it up for you? The princess didn't know the truth and even said you owed her one, and she wanted to collect her reward."

Shi Huaizhi's eyes were gloomy: "If I didn't say this, she would never go back to sleep."

"Between owing me a favor and me owing her a favor, what do you think she will choose?"

"Just owe her what you owe her, as long as it makes her happy."

He felt that Sheng Nanzhi was not that unkind and did not really not want the child.

After all, with her personality, if she really made up her mind not to want it, she would have made it clear to his mother just now.

"Besides, I have something to deal with tonight."

Shi Huaizhi's eyes were dark, and there was an undisguised murderous intent in them: "Even if I am unconscious, my house is definitely not a place where assassins can come and go."

"I want to see who is so bold."

Sheng Nanzhi slept well this time. When she woke up, it was almost noon.

Shi Huaizhi lay back down beside her again. Sheng Nanzhi turned her head to look at him and pursed her lips.

When you close your eyes and fall asleep, you can still see this face.

But the words from this mouth are really not very pleasant to hear.

Or, should we just let him fall into a coma?

This wasn't difficult, but if he really fell unconscious, she would probably be in a lot of trouble.

Let her think about it again.

Sheng Nanzhi called someone in to help her change clothes. Shuanghan helped her change clothes while saying, "Empress Hua sent a lot of things here early this morning."

"Two cooks, a personal nurse, and a female doctor."

"There are also countless gold and silver jewelry and cloth."

"Your Majesty also sent over some rewards. I saw that besides gold, silver, and jade ornaments, there were even two farms and several shops."

Sheng Nanzhi was startled and turned to look at Shuanghan.

Shuanghan immediately understood and said quickly, "I was going to call the princess, but Concubine Hua and the people sent by His Majesty said that the princess was frightened last night and asked me not to disturb her and let her rest and sleep more."

Seeing that Sheng Nanzhi remained silent, Shuanghan lowered her voice again: "By the way, I heard that something happened in the city last night besides our palace."

"It's said that there was a fire in the eldest prince's mansion in the middle of the night."
