So even though he was heartbroken, he casually stroked her cheek, returning to his usual calm and composed demeanor, as if last night's madness was just an illusion.

"You'll be willing someday."

He sat at the dining table and took out his breakfast one by one from the parchment paper.

"The doctor said you can't go hungry, come and eat."

[Zhizhi, he personally queued up to buy it for you, aren't you touched?]

It is indeed quite rare to see the cold-blooded and ruthless prime minister personally buy breakfast for a woman.

But anyone can do this; it's nothing special.

Nanzhi remained standing still.

Lu Huai looked at her: "Do you want me to feed you myself?"

Nanzhi remained unmoved.

Furthermore, even if our social statuses don't allow it, you're still willing.

You just stay with Lian'er like that, without going out for a stroll or breathing in some fresh air from time to time.

With 003's help, they finally managed to find a woman whose family background and social status were quite similar to Lian'er's.

Come here, you can't stand it anymore, and walk towards me. "What is he doing following you?"

Even so, Lu Huai didn't let me die just like that. Qiao Fei used drugs to keep me hanging, slowly torturing my mind, making me watch how the empire I had seized would gradually fall back into Qiao Fei's hands.

Nanzhi doesn't care about those things.

Under the bed, Nanzhi was sleeping on her side facing me, her belly not yet shrinking, allowing me to lie flat.

If I'm sure I really want a child, then you should take the child and run away.

Nan Zhi swallowed it down without being able to.

Beside the bedside table, there were still the baby's big clothes that had just been made. I picked them up heavily and looked at Nanzhi's embroidery stitch by stitch, my eyes losing a little of their tenderness.

Before hearing the news of Nanzhi's death, Consort Mei finally regretted her actions. Recalling Nanzhi's words, she wept every day.

The other party was a kind and honest servant who worked outside the restaurant. He was young, only seven years older than Lian'er, and their zodiac signs were also very compatible.

"Zhizhi, you haven't started preparing for the wedding yet. Once he has the baby, you two can't get married."

Nanzhi reached out her hand to Lian'er, "Lian'er, you should go."

Nanzhi and Lian'er found a quiet inn and stayed there.

He didn't stop, still pressing down on the back of her neck, kissing her deeply and lightly. He didn't close his eyes; his phoenix eyes had deep wrinkles, and when he looked down at her, his affection was as deep as the sea.

Wherever you go, I'll follow you leisurely.

Ye Ling told me that Nan Zhi was going to give birth in less than a month.

Nan Zhi wanted to go back to the capital and put on an act with Consort Mei and Emperor Qi.

I had no time to make baby clothes with Lian'er, and as my belly grew smaller day by day, the days passed by quickly.

Namgyal did not go to a neighboring country for a marriage alliance; that news had already reached the capital.

When Ye Ling saw you inside, she instinctively wanted to stop you, but then Lu Huai, who was following behind, gave her a look, so she stepped aside.

You gave me a chance to marry you, and that's what I wanted.

Nan Zhi is indeed too far to walk, but you'll see Qiao Fei following you ahead. He'll stop when you stop and walk when you walk.

Nan Zhi stroked the child again, "You really have to leave the child with Lu Huai."

Before Nanzhi finished eating two pieces, she was still not full. You stood up and asked, "Did you leave?"

Looking up, Lu Huai gently stroked your face, which had become rounder due to pregnancy, his gaze growing even more tender.

You gave me a chance a long time ago. You asked me if I could marry you, but I did.

After Lu Huai placed the tamarind cake in front of you, he said, "Eat two more pieces, then let him go."

Nanzhi quickly went inside.

Nan Zhi realized something was wrong and was about to run away when he grabbed her hand. His palm held the back of her head, and at the same time, his cool lips landed on hers, forcefully prying open her lips and teeth, and transferring the still warm porridge into her mouth.

It took Nan Zhi a long time to regain her strength. She suddenly pushed him away and slapped him hard.

Lu Huai spoke, and also tried to stop them.

Most importantly, I am long-lived, I will live to be 90 years old, and I am blessed with good fortune. If Lian'er marries me, her life will only get worse and worse.

Perhaps if you give birth to the child and leave it to me, it might change my murderous nature and save my life in a critical moment.

But I didn't intend to abort the child, which shows that I still care.

Lu Huai showed no anger as expected. I simply pressed my cheeks together and said, whether quickly or slowly, "Eat by yourself, or do you want me to continue feeding you?"

She also planned to leave the child with Lu Huai.

Yes, I must say, the breakfast I bought this morning was just what you wanted.

That's why you deliberately used the child to test me.

Nanzhi watched me walk further and further away, and finally breathed a sigh of relief.

You know that Lu Huai has sent people to watch over you, but you pretend to know.

Before the Emperor heard the news, he actually coughed up blood in front of his court officials. I felt sorry for Nanzhi, but I felt sorry for myself because I would no longer have any help.

Now, Lu Huai might easily give up his child, but I would never easily give up my revenge.

But you are the one who can be bought off like that.

Lian'er quickly handed you her hand.

Lu Huai would come from outside the capital almost every night, and just as you were about to fall asleep, he would quietly leave the room, press your acupoints to help you fall asleep, and hold you as you drifted off to sleep.

After you finished your porridge, you put the bowl down and said, "I'm full. Are you going to leave now?"

Nanzhi looked at me suspiciously, and seeing that I seemed to be talking nonsense, she picked up two pieces of tamarind cake and stuffed them into her mouth with a hint of disbelief.

The two left hand in hand.

The reason I only appear during the day is because I'm busy, and also because I'm afraid you'll be too resistant to me and it might upset the baby.

But Lu Huai never imagined that this day would come again.

That also means you're likely to be the one who ends up with me.

Lu Huai glanced at you, then unexpectedly walked past you and headed back.

Nan Zhi smiled through gritted teeth: "He'll go first."

Ye Ling and the secret guards have been secretly watching over you.

However, in a plot different from the original story, Lu Huai died shortly before ascending the throne.

Seeing that I had to go get the porridge, Nanzhi had no choice but to go downstairs and pick up the porridge herself, drinking it in small sips.

Sometimes, I will gently stroke your belly and feel the baby's movements. When the baby kicks me for the first time, I feel an unprecedented sense of wonder and emotion.

When not in use, Nanzhi would take Lian'er out, so that you would have fewer opportunities to meet women from that world.

The Xuanjia soldiers escorting you did not expose Qiao Fei; they only claimed that they encountered bandits on the road, and that the envoy Wang died protecting the princess, who also survived.

Nanzhi felt very gratified to see our relationship deteriorating.

I replied nonchalantly, "We're just fellow travelers."

You want to find a bad home for Lian'er after the child is born.

His cold, resolute face was slapped and he remained silent for a long time.

Nan Zhi's breathing was uneven, the hand that hit him was still trembling, and her face was flushed, clearly she was very angry.

You just want to give birth to the child slowly, to start that world slowly.

Lu Huai scooped a spoonful of meat porridge to his lips, then got up and walked towards her.

You originally planned to just leave like that, to get completely away from Lu Huai.
