nWenren Yunfei stood blankly watching the two leave, her whole body emitting a dark mist. She needed to go find crown prince gege right now. Only crown prince gege could be her most perfect lover. As for Nangong Muchen and Guan Shengqing, humph, they were just poor men with nothing to their name.

nIn reality, although Nangong Muchen had lost his title as richest merchant, his family background was still stellar. Guan Shengqing may have lost his future prospects, but he still had enough to support her. But Wenren Yunfei was too greedy and still craved the extravagent and luxurious life of before.

nXunMi and Zongzheng Mufeng came back to the prince estate right in time for lunch. Today her mother had personally cooked, causing XunMi to almost drool. Her mother’s skill was the best of the best. If you eat once, you’ll become addicted. Her chopsticks attacked the Drunken Duck Slices without hesitation. But just after she had placed it in her mouth, before she could even enjoy its flavor, XunMi felt a burst of nausea making her gag.

nShe quickly abandoned her chopsticks and ran outside to throw up.

n“Belle, what’s wrong, where does it hurt? Call for the imperial physician! An Yi! Go get the imperial physician!” Zongzheng Mufeng worriedly patted XunMi’s back, his face anxious.

nShangguan Yan thoughtfully leaned on her chin, “Mi’er, is this your first time or does this happen frequently?”

nXunMi felt her stomach calm down and drank the tea that Zongzheng Mufeng was offering. “Mother, this is the first time. What’s wrong?”

n“Nothing, let’s wait for the imperial physician to come take a look.” Shangguan Yan had an answer in her heart. As XunMi and Zongzheng Mufeng turned to look at each other in confusion, the imperial physician was carried over by An Yi.

n“This official greets Prince, Princess.” The chief imperial physician of the imperial hospital bowed to the two. On the inside, he was feeling depressed. He had just been preparing to return home to rest when someone came and snatched him.

n“Don’t waste time, quickly examine Belle. She had just taken a bite of duck meat when she threw up. What happened?” Zongzheng Mufeng used one hand to lift up the doctor that was kneeling on the floor and rushed him.

nThe imperial physician was feeling helpless. As expected, the guard takes after his master. Both enjoy lifting people up.

nHe quickly brought out his equipment and began taking XunMi’s pulse. Immediately, he kneeled back down and congratulated the two, “Congratulations Prince and Princ-. Wangfei is with child, it’s about a month along.” He had originally wanted to call out Princess but quickly corrected himself.

nZongzheng Mufeng was blank and didn’t react. XunMi was also frozen. She had just been discussing this topic in the morning and she was pregnant by the afternoon? She slowly rubbed her flat stomach. There was a small life in here? Based on the time, it would have been that first time with her husband.

nA slight smile formed as she gazed warmly at her stomach. The radiance of maternal love could be plainly seen emitting from her.

n“Imperial physician, please rise.” It was Shangguan Yan who finally acted and helped the old man up. She turned to the two people still in a daze, “Have you become dumb?”

n“Belle, Belle! Did you hear? We are having a baby! Belle is having my child!” Zongzheng Mufeng snapped out of his daze and turned to XunMi excitedly. XunMi was also very happy, so she allowed her man to have his crazy episode.

nShangguan Yan brought the imperial physician to side to sit, beginning to inquire about all kinds of things she needed to pay attention to. It seems like she wouldn’t be returning to the duke’s estate for a while.

nWhen the other two had finally calmed down, Zongzheng Mufeng completely transformed into the model husband. Serving tea and carrying water, personally testing foods, grabbing more clothes in cold weather, and fanning her in warm weather. If she wasn’t happy, then he’ll amuse her until she’s happy.

nEven the imperial physician was convinced, through his multiple threats and promises, to take up residence at the prince’s estate so that he could help take care of his Belle.

nIn less than a day, the news of XunMi’s pregnancy had already spread to all those that needed to know. The news that she was to marry the An wang was even more greatly spread throughout all the great streets and small alleys of the city.

nStanding in an empty room, Wenren Yunfei grinded her teeth. She had entered the crown prince estate to see her crown prince gege with great difficulty just yesterday. She thought that she was about to become the crown princess and live in the lap of luxury.

nInstead, the crown prince had left her win a side chamber room. At night, he didn’t come see her. Moreover, not even a servant was assigned to her. She had just gone out to find him herself when she overheard those servants talking. She stopped in her steps and found out that Wenren XunMi was about to marry An wang.

nHow could this be? She was the doted daughter of the heavens. She should be the one that everyone protected. How could Wenren XunMi compare to her? All she had was a pretty face.

nNo, she can’t just be resigned to this fate. She needed to regain everyone’s attention. The best way to do that was to ruin that face of Wenren XunMi’s. At that time, An wang wouldn’t like her. How could An wang match to such a lowly Wenren XunMi? It should be her. As long as there wasn’t a Wenren XunMi, An wang will become hers. Yes, it should be like that.

nShe might not be able to leave the crown prince estate right now, but she could still find Ling gege.

nWenren Yunfei seemed to have found her new objective. Immediately, she was no longer consumed with anger. She quickly tidied herself up before going to find the man she needed.

nThat night, after XunMi had fallen asleep, Zongzheng Mufeng suddenly opened his eyes. He unsheathed his sword and shielded XunMi behind him.

n“An wang, this subordinate does not have evil intent. I came to inform you of something.” A man walked out of the dark and spoke softly. Behind him was An Yi and An Er.

nZongzheng Mufeng relaxed slightly, tilting to see that his Belle was still sleeping sweetly.

n“Go, we’ll speak outside.” He spoke with a lowered voice and gestured. He lightly left the bed, tucked in the blankets for Belle and gave her a kiss on her forehead before putting on a cloak and walking outside.

n“Speak, what matter is it that required the crown prince’s secret guard to come to my estate at this hour.” He sat at the main seat and received the tea that An Yi handed over.

n“Prince, someone wants to act against the princess. Moreover, the crown prince has made his own movements lately.” Bai Ling didn’t beat around the bush and quickly responded.

nZongzheng Mufeng played with his teacup while staring down at the man below. “Oh, why would I believe anything you say? And why would you come to inform me of these things?”

n“A smart bird chooses a sturdy tree to perch on.” Bai Ling knelt down as a sign of respect. In the past few days, he had seen a lot at the crown prince estate. The crown prince was acting too radically, even daring to think about forcing the emperor to abidicate. No matter whether he succeeds or fails, there wouldn’t be any good results.

nAn wang was still sitting here in perfect health. Wanting to convince the court to seize the throne was practically impossible, unless An wang died.
