Chapter 394 Pregnant

Looking at the betrothal gifts filling up the yard, Wei Shijun felt a little uneasy and asked Lin Lanting in a low voice, "Isn't this a fake marriage? Why are there so many betrothal gifts?"

Lin Lanting still said, "You have to do your best in acting."

"Can……"

But she had no dowry and had no plans to prepare one.

Lin Lanting knew what she was worried about almost at a glance, but he didn't dare to tell her. He had already ordered someone to rush to Wei to inform Madam Wei of their marriage.

If Madam Wei's dowry was not delivered in time, he would secretly prepare some dowry for her.

But he didn't dare tell Wei Shijun about this, fearing that she would notice something, and he backed off because of his emotional knot.

But he felt guilty, so he found other topics to divert Wei Shijun's attention. He despised himself in his heart, but at the same time comforted himself that he would wait for her to open her heart and compensate her in the future.

The premise for him to dare to do all this was that he realized that Wei Lao San was not opposed to him, and even had some affection for him.

Wei Shijun had no idea about this, and she had no idea that Wei Qingyan was already preparing her dowry.

But she finally realized the turmoil in her heart. Ever since she experienced those things at the age of twelve, she had never thought that she would get married one day.

Because she knew that there were almost no men in the world who did not care about a woman's chastity. Even the so-called free and easy knights she had met in the martial arts world before cared about it.

It's not that she doesn't have means of concealing things, but she doesn't want to get a marriage through deception. She wants to be favored and live her life openly.

It’s just that she hasn’t met that person yet, or perhaps such a person simply doesn’t exist.

But today, as she watched the betrothal gifts being carried into the courtyard and saw the hard-pressed smile on Lin Guozhang's haggard face, she actually felt a moment of longing for such happiness.

Wei Shijun curled the corners of her mouth and said, "Never mind, even if it's fake, she has been a bride once after all."

Thinking of this, she left Lin Lanting's courtyard and left the Prince's Mansion. After years of wandering around the world, she also had some connections of her own.

Since I want to be a bride again, I will do it more sincerely, which will fulfill the dream of a girl deep in my heart.

When Wei Qingyan learned that Wei Shijun had left the house to prepare her dowry, he just smiled faintly and handed a booklet to the head nanny brought from the Wei Imperial Palace.

"Send these to our newly purchased house and have them carefully guarded until Third Sister gets married."

If they were still in the Prince's Mansion at that time, or if not, then they would definitely be in the Imperial Palace, and they would not miss the third sister's marriage.

The housekeeper respectfully took the booklet and nodded.

She was assigned by His Majesty to the side of the Crown Princess and followed the Crown Princess to Fengzhao. Preparing dowry for Wei Shijun was the first and only task given to her by the Crown Princess, so she had to do it well.

However, "Your Highness, I see that you and your husband have lost weight. You and your husband must take care of yourselves, otherwise His Majesty and His Majesty will be distressed."

Wei Qingyan touched his face. After coming to Fengzhao, he seemed to have never stopped, with one thing after another. Now that the old patriarch has returned, Shi Yu’s recognition of his ancestors is scheduled to be in ten days.

Once he gets on the Royal Jade Butterfly, the matter of ascending the throne will be put on the agenda. The Queen will not dare to accept this and will definitely take action.

So, she knew very well that she couldn't just rest whenever she wanted to.

But she knew that the housekeeper had been communicating with the emperor to avoid worrying him and the others, so she smiled and said, "Okay."

As soon as he finished laughing, he covered his mouth and yawned.

The old nanny saw that she was being perfunctory, but she could only sigh inwardly with heartache and helplessness.

It's not that the princess and the others don't want to rest, but someone won't let them rest. All she can do is go to the kitchen and tell them to provide the masters with more nourishing food.

Looking at the old lady's back as she left, Shi Yu smiled and said, "My father-in-law must be angry with me."

If it weren't for him, Xiao Yan wouldn't have to work so hard.

Wei Qingyan glared at him.

Although the emperor was annoyed, he could understand in his heart. Moreover, the difficulties they encountered in coming to Fengzhao were within his expectations, otherwise why would he bring so many people with them?

Speaking of Dawei, she really missed her parents. "My mother is about to give birth, but unfortunately I can't make it back in time. I wonder how Abu is doing now."

Shi Yu pulled the person into his arms and said, "After things are settled, you go back first. After I stabilize Feng Zhao, I will go to Dawei to pick you up."

Wei Qingyan also knew that now was not the time to abandon all this, so he nodded, "I want to find an opportunity to go to the Mansion of the Loyal and Brave Marquis."

"Investigate the matter of the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery's son?" Shi Yu asked.

"Yes, we know that the Queen is behind many things, but we have no evidence. We don't know what tricks she will use against us in the future."

Shi Yu nodded and said, "Let Shi Yu tell the old lady of the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery, I will accompany you there."

Jingzhe's identity was exposed, and the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery's Mansion and the Prince's Mansion were linked together.

What's more, as soon as Jingzhe came back, the old steward of the Zhongyong Marquis' Mansion brought people to deliver a lot of things, and they obviously had no intention of avoiding suspicion.

"As for what tricks the Queen has, I don't know yet, but she will definitely break the evil spirit."

Shi Dehou is dead, and another life-saving formation was exposed through the mouth of the old marquis. Now Qingwu’s people are investigating, and they will eventually find the formation that is being activated.

The Queen knew that breaking evil could nourish the soul, and was worried that the life-saving formation that nourished the living dead would be destroyed, so she would definitely make preparations for both scenarios.

Unless she would abandon Xiao Pei, but based on Shi Yu's experience and understanding of the queen, he knew that a queen as paranoid as her would definitely keep Xiao Pei by her side.

Wei Qingyan rested his head on his shoulder and yawned again, "Then let Jingzhe prepare well and test the abilities of the secret guards of the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery's Mansion."

Shi Yu knew that Wei Qingyan was practicing Jingzhe to prepare for his future return to the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery's Mansion.

Jingzhe has a better future, and Shi Yu will not keep him by his side, but they still have to control the overall situation at the moment, so the couple talked about how to deal with the Queen's secret plan.

After discussing several possibilities, Wei Qingyan yawned again, his eyes sparkling with light.

She is sleepy.

Shi Yu saw her yawning a few times, looking extremely sleepy. He glanced at the azure sky outside, his eyes flickering slightly, "Go to sleep."

Wei Qingyan felt a little heavy in the head. He had been easily sleepy these days. Thinking that he had nothing to do at the moment, he nodded and was rolled onto the bed by Shi Yu.

Almost as soon as he touched the pillow, Wei Qingyan began to breathe evenly.

Shi Yu looked a little solemn. Qingyan had always been in good health. Although she had been busy recently, she had been living a hard life since she was a child and rarely felt sleepy during the day.

Thinking of a possibility, he hurriedly closed the door and went to Jingyang's yard.

"Do pregnant women tend to be sleepy?"

Since getting married, Shi Yu has asked Jing Yang for several books on women's health care.

Naturally, there were some contents about women being pregnant and giving birth, and what he asked about was what he had read in those books.

Jing Yang paused while preparing the medicine and looked at him, "The Crown Princess is pregnant?"

"Not sure." Shi Yu was a little annoyed, "But she's been sleepy lately."

He really wanted a child of their own, but ever since he knew his own background, he knew that Qingyan was not suitable for pregnancy for the time being.

Especially after arriving at Feng Zhao, this thought became even stronger. He had tried his best to restrain himself, but...

Hearing this, Jing Yang smiled and said, "You must have been too busy recently and tired. Didn't you use small intestine casings? It wouldn't be that easy to get pregnant then."

Shi Yu pursed his lips.

I used it, but it wasn't very easy to use and it would fall off from time to time.

Seeing his expression, Jing Yang knew what he was confused about. He just blamed the sausage casings he made for not being durable.

He asked tentatively, "How about I go check the Crown Princess's pulse?"
