Chapter 149

At this moment, the mandarin ducks are immersed in love and have no idea that the man’s promise is like a fart and has no practical significance. They only know to enjoy the happiness and passion of the moment.

As long as life is a little bit unsatisfactory, forget the previous responsibilities and commitments. When the heat of love fades, everything will come down to zero. In order to preserve oneself, the first thing to be sacrificed is the so-called love...

Just as Du Lin and Yuan Yang were immersed in joy and whispering to each other, they were completely unaware that a pair of black eyes were staring at them closely not far away. Those eyes were hidden in the darkness, like a wild beast in the night, quietly observing their every move.

Those eyes watched them silently, and as time went by, the gaze of those eyes became sharper and sharper, as if to penetrate the souls of Du Lin and Yuanyang.

The sunlight shines through the window lattices onto the ground of the East Palace, forming patches of mottled light and shadows. But the snow had not melted yet and it was still bitterly cold. Sheng Yixuan had just finished a day of morning court. The palace maids carefully took off his solemn court clothes and changed him into light and comfortable casual clothes. Every movement seemed extremely delicate, as if afraid of wrinkling the gorgeous clothes. Sheng Yixuan quietly enjoyed the tranquility of the moment, temporarily freeing himself from the busy government affairs.

Then, he walked into the study with a little tiredness. He waved his hand to signal the palace maids and eunuchs to leave, but Boss Ye had been waiting there for a long time.

Sheng Yixuan drank a sip of hot tea and asked gloomily: "How is it? Any news?"

Boss Ye, dressed in black, knelt on one knee and reported: "Master, there is news. According to the spies..."

The more Sheng Yixuan listened, the angrier he became. He clenched his fists tightly, and the anger in his heart continued to rise. Finally, he couldn't bear it anymore and threw the memorial in his hand onto the desk. The memorial flew in the air and finally fell to the ground, making a crisp sound.

His eyes became extremely cold, full of anger and majesty. He gnashed his teeth and said, "These people are really ambitious! They actually dared to attack the royal family. This is simply treason!"

"Boss Ye, aren't they going to attack the princess? Then we should take advantage of their trick and catch them in the act. Send someone quickly to secretly protect Princess Anding. We will definitely make sure they succeed and protect the princess. Catch them when they attack.

And Nanny Li and Imperial Preceptor Xu Run, keep a close eye on them. When they are destroying the things and the bodies, you take action again. When the evidence is solid, sentence them to death..." Sheng Yixuan's eyes became more and more fierce, without any hesitation or mercy.

Kneeling on the ground, Boss Ye replied in fear and trepidation: "Yes, Master. I will do my best to get this done properly and will never let you down!" He pressed his forehead tightly against the ground, not daring to slack off in the slightest...

In the Prince Consort's mansion, Nanny Li, who had claimed to be unwell, now appeared in Yuanyang's bedroom in a swagger and looked refreshed.

Nanny Li smiled and lifted the curtain. She was holding a green porcelain jar in her hands. Before she saw the person, she heard her voice: "Yuanyang, look what delicious food I brought you? Freshly pickled sour plums. You are pregnant, this is the best."

Yuanyang supported her waist, stood up, and greeted her with a smile: "Madame Li, you are here. You are so good to me, I don't know how to treat you well. Over the years, you have been like a mother to me..."

As she was talking, Yuanyang was about to take the celadon jar, but Nanny Li put the celadon jar on the table, quickly helped Yuanyang sit on a stool, and told her: "You are pregnant, so you must be very careful."

Afterwards, Nanny Li looked at Yuanyang with a complicated and bitter expression and said, "I just happen to be in need of a daughter, why don't you let Yuanyang be my goddaughter!"

In order to hide her emotions, Li Ma quickly opened the celadon jar, took out a plum and placed it in Yuanyang's hand: "Hey! Forget it! Yuanyang, you are of noble status now, and you are pregnant with the first child of your husband. It is better not to be my goddaughter, so that I, an old woman, will not hold you back."

Yuanyang smiled and said, "Madame Li, I was just talking, why do you take it so seriously?"

Nanny Li felt empty inside. To hide her embarrassment, she quickly said, "I am sorry for being so rude. Please try some! These are the plums I pickled myself. They are delicious."

Yuanyang has been spoiled by Nanny Li for many years and didn't say much? I naturally picked up the plum and tasted it: "So sour..."

In fact, Yuanyang wants to eat spicy food more, especially the bright red chili peppers with oil, but Yuanyang doesn't dare to do so because so many people are staring at her stomach. The mandarin ducks could only pray in their hearts: "Give birth to a boy, give birth to a boy..."
