The eldest daughter's scheming, the crown prince's exclusive favor to the venomous concubi

At this point, He Xinle clutched her stomach in sorrow, her brows furrowed with grief, and said, "My poor child, lost on such a long journey. My child, who didn't even get to see me one last time. Tell me, what more do you want from me?"

Chu Tianyi said, "We are husband and wife. I have a clear conscience about how I have treated you. You can think about it. I can touch you, but I still can't touch other women. That's how I feel about you. Don't involve others."

"Huh? I'm involving her? If you really consider her someone else, how could you look at her so affectionately in front of her husband? Chu Tianyi, don't you think you're being hypocritical? You clearly want to take her away and keep her by your side, yet you always consider her feelings."

He wanted to let go, but couldn't. He married a woman he didn't love as a shield. Tell me, since you gave me a child to compensate me, have we ever shared a bed?

He Xinle spoke loudly, attracting passersby to stop and watch. Chu Tianyi looked around, frowned and said unhappily, "We'll talk about these things when we get back. Don't embarrass yourself here. Don't forget, you're not only the little princess of our royal palace, but also the princess of the Uncrowned City. How can you behave like a vulgar shrew?"

As Chu Tian finished speaking, he turned and left. He Xinle angrily twisted his hands together, and the silk handkerchief in his palm broke into two pieces.

"Chu Tianyi, you bastard."

After that angry shout, He Xinle suddenly felt a sharp pain in her abdomen and immediately squatted down, convulsing. Chu Tianyi took a few steps and then heard passersby talking behind him. He frowned and turned around, his face immediately showing great alarm. He quickly ran over and helped her up, asking, "How are you?"

He Xinle felt a lump in her throat, her face ashen from the pain. Chu Tianyi's concern did not bring her any joy. She angrily tried to push Chu Tianyi away, but she had no strength. She couldn't help but curse, "Get out of my way! If you don't like me, why are you bothering to care about me?"

After saying that, she felt all her strength drain away and collapsed to one side, feeling weak all over. Chu Tianyi grabbed her, pulled her into his arms and picked her up, saying, "You're not a child anymore, why are you still so reckless? If you move again, be careful that you don't lose this child. At that time, it won't be a question of whether you want to have the child or not, but whether you can still have it."

Chu Tianyi's threat worked, and He Xinle stopped struggling. However, she still said defiantly, "Don't think that today is over. Once the child is safe and sound, I will move out of the palace, return to the City of the Uncrowned, and never come back."

Chu Tian paused, remained silent, and continued walking forward until he led the person to the nearest clinic. Only after the examination was completed did he feel relieved.

"Madam's health is not bad, but she has had a miscarriage before. Therefore, the slightest carelessness could lead to disaster. As a result, Madam has many taboos. As the saying goes, 'a single hair can affect the whole body.' In the future, you must not get angry, and you should try to walk steadily."

Hearing that the child was alright, He Xinle felt much relieved, but she still sneered, "How could I not be angry following an unreliable man? My poor child, having to suffer like this with me. Child, don't blame your mother when you are born."

She gently stroked her swollen belly, occasionally glancing at Chu Tianyi with a disdainful look. Chu Tianyi lowered his head, and after a moment, silently pulled He Xinle, who was still expressing her anger, into his arms and said to the doctor, "Thank you for informing us, doctor. We will definitely be more careful in the future. We'll be leaving now."

He Xinle was startled. Looking at Chu Tianyi's silent face, a warm feeling suddenly welled up in her heart. After a moment, she rested her head on Chu Tianyi's shoulder and murmured, "When will you treat me the same way you treat her? How much longer do I have to wait? I'm afraid I can't wait any longer, I'll get tired... Chu Tianyi, I love you so much..."

Chu Tianyi didn't stop walking. He glanced at He Xinle out of the corner of his eye and found that the man had fallen asleep, but his lips were still pouting, exuding a strong sense of dissatisfaction and grievance.

Chu Tian shook his head, and after a moment, he suddenly whispered, "If I didn't care about you, why would I have married you?"

Jian Yue stayed in the Northwest for three days, searching everywhere inside and outside the city but still couldn't find any trace of Qiu Lingyu. So she left with Bai Jianan. Jian Yue didn't plan to tell Chu Tianyi this news, but somehow he still appeared on the day they left, only this time without He Xinle following behind.

Jian Yue said, "You don't need to give me anything."

Chu Tian said, "It's alright, this will only happen once, and there won't be a next time."

After saying that, he looked at Bai Jianan and said, "This time, I admit defeat wholeheartedly. But since we are about to part ways, may I have a few words with her alone?"

Bai Jianan frowned slightly, his face displeased, but Jian Yue said, "Husband, you go pack your things first, I'll go downstairs with him to sit for a while."

Bai Jianan could only nod, gave Chu Tianyi a cold look, and turned to pack his things. Jian Yue nodded to Chu Tianyi and went downstairs first. Chu Tianyi followed. The two sat by the window, where they could see the street view.

Jian Yue sighed, "Time flies so fast. I never thought you and Xin Yue would get married. I really want to congratulate you."

Chu Tian nodded and said, "Yes, I never thought we would be together. She is a good person. It's my fault. I'm sorry to her."

Jian Yue raised an eyebrow and looked over. He said calmly, "My sword has made a breakthrough because of you. Do you remember when I said that I had feelings for you?"

Jian Yue remained silent, then continued, "But I know that this love came too late. When I realized I could never win the heart of the person in your heart, I tasted the excruciating pain again. It was at that moment that the Heartless Sword rang out once more."

"Miss Shangguan, I want to thank you for letting me know the sword intent of the Heartless Sword, and for helping me understand what I have been searching for all my life."

Jian Yue took a sip of tea, and after a moment said, "Is this why you married her?"

Chu Tian shook his head and said, "No, maybe you're right. Looking back will reveal something beautiful, but many people are unwilling to look back. However, I did look back and saw her, so I said I want to thank you. Right now, besides you and my mother, she is the only woman I can touch, and she is also the mother of my future child."

Jian Yue smiled and raised her glass to him. He returned the toast and said, "Miss Shangguan, this parting may be forever. After all, I have been devoted to you. As I said before, as long as you need anything, the 100,000 iron cavalry of the Great Northwest will serve you wholeheartedly. This is my promise to you, Chu Tianyi."

Jian Yue stood up and smiled, "Thank you, and I wish you and Xin Yue happiness and a large family. May the Great Northwest flourish under your leadership."

Chu Tian nodded, and Jian Yue drank the wine in her cup at the same time. Bai Jianan happened to come downstairs at this moment. Jian Yue glanced at him and said, "I'm leaving. Take care."

Chu Tian nodded: "Take care."

After the two left, Chu Tianyi watched their departing figures, shook his head helplessly, picked up a cup of tea, and said, "They're gone, aren't you coming over?"

Behind him, He Xinle, dressed in men's clothing, pouted and turned around, slowly sitting down in front of Chu Tianyi with a suppressed joy on her face. Chu Tianyi looked at her attire and suddenly laughed, "Are you trying to bury your head in the sand? This belly, is it something a man can have?"

He Xinle blushed and turned his head, saying, "Why can't I have one? I'm just naturally fat."

Chu Tian smiled, picked up his teacup, poured himself a drink, and He Xinle leaned closer to him, tentatively asking, "Have you really let go?"

Chu Tian raised an eyebrow, his face filled with helplessness once again. Heaven knows that he used to be expressionless and a ruthless killer, but now he was filled with helplessness and could never go back.

"If I can't let go, why did I marry you? You never remember what I said. I told you, Crescent Moon, you are not Jian Yue. I see that clearly, very clearly. Why do you always ignore my feelings for you and keep thinking about things from the past?"

He Xinle immediately smiled and pouted, saying, "Isn't it because you were too infatuated with her? Back then, when I saw you practicing your sword in the rain, my heart ached terribly. Chu Tianyi, I love you so much, how could you hurt yourself and your mind so much for another woman?"

From now on, you belong to me alone. I won't allow you to be fickle. You have to be responsible for me, responsible for me for the rest of your life.

"it is good."

A single word, "good," is worth a thousand words. He Xinle finally smiled happily and threw herself into Chu Tianyi's arms, refusing to let go. Chu Tianyi smiled slightly, his eyes filled with doting affection.

That's it, it's all over.

"No further investigation?"

"I'm not going to pursue it anymore. What's the point of pursuing it? She was just fighting for her love. Did she cause me any real harm?"

"But she did hurt you after all. Even if you let it go, I feel like I can't."

Bai Jianan and Jian Yue rode together, their horses swaying and wobbling slowly along the official road, while they chatted about He Xinyue.

Back then, Chu Tianyi was obsessed with Jian Yue, and He Xinle once hired an assassin to kill Jian Yue. Although the Qilin Pavilion no longer had an assassination squad, it still controlled all the information channels in the world. Therefore, it immediately learned that the person who hired the assassin was He Xinle.

When Jian Yue first learned about this, she wasn't surprised. From the time she was kidnapped by Hei Feng and forced to beg, she knew that her fate with He Xinle was over.

They hadn't known each other for long and didn't have much of a relationship, but being assassinated by hired assassins was not something they could just sit idly by. However, she was too busy with the armored soldiers to deal with the matter at the time, which delayed things until now.

She came to the Northwest, saw Chu Tianyi, and also saw He Xinle, and thus understood that Chu Tianyi had protected He Xinle. Therefore, this was the reason why Chu Tianyi insisted on having a private conversation with her and forcibly made a promise.

Let He Xinle go, and he can do whatever he wants in the Northwest.
