And if anything happens, she'll have someone to blame.

Therefore, Consort De agreed to what Consort Rou said without hesitation.

"Yes, as soon as I find out, I will tell you immediately. Just wait patiently. During this time, you must not make any rash moves."

Consort Rou was aware of the seriousness of the matter, so she did not refuse.

"Your Highness, please rest assured! I am aware of this matter."

On the other side, Jiang Jingyue felt a little embarrassed when she saw Jiugongting actually carrying water to help her wash her feet.

"Your Majesty, what I just said was just a joke. Please don't take it seriously."

Although Jiang Jingyue was just joking, Jiu Houting took it seriously.

"Yuebao, I love washing your feet. I'm very willing to do it for you. Stretch out your feet! I'm all ready. I promise I'll wash them properly."

Although Jiang Jingyue said those things, she still felt a little embarrassed when she saw that Jiugongting had actually prepared water to help her wash her feet.

"Your Majesty, but... please let me do it myself! I feel a little embarrassed that you are like this."

Seeing Jiang Jingyue's flushed face, Jiu Gongting couldn't help but laugh.

"Yuebao, we already have a child, what's there to be shy about now?"

Although that's what she said, Jiang Jingyue was still very embarrassed.

However, Jiugongting had already taken action, and Jiang Jingyue had no choice but to let him wash her.

From that day on, Jiu Gongting really did it, washing Jiang Jingyue's feet every night.

Jiang Jingyue went from being unaccustomed to it at first to gradually getting used to it later.

Now, when Jiugongting washes her feet, she remains calm, incredibly calm.

Sometimes she would even direct Jiu Gongting to do things for her, just like now, she said to Jiu Gongting with a smile.

"Your Majesty, please come quickly and help me adjust my clothes. These clothes are so difficult to put on!"

Normally, Jiang Jingyue would do many things herself without asking her servants for help. But now, she had no other choice but to ask Jiugongting for help.

Upon hearing Jiang Jingyue's request, Jiu Gongting immediately came to her side.

She reached out and helped Jiang Jingyue straighten her clothes, then smiled and touched her stomach.

"Baby Yue, have you noticed? Your belly seems to have gotten a little bigger lately."

Jiang Jingyue had already changed her mind, and she discovered that her belly was not just a little bigger.

Her belly was already slightly protruding at this point, and it would likely grow even larger in the future.

"Your Majesty, do I look terrible now? My belly will definitely get bigger in a while, and I'll look even worse then."

Jiang Jingyue looked at the Nine Palaces Court, her expression somewhat unpleasant.

It's clear that she was somewhat worried at that moment.

Before Jiu Houting could speak, Jiang Jingyue looked at her and said.

"Your Majesty, what if I am no longer pretty by then? Will Your Majesty no longer like me?"

When Jiu Gongting heard Jiang Jingyue ask this question, he was both amused and exasperated.

He looked at Jiang Jingyue with amusement, "Yuebao, the person I love most has always been you. No matter what you become, I will always love you."

So you don't need to worry, I won't like you.

Jiang Jingyue was deeply moved upon hearing this. She looked up at Jiugongting with teary eyes.

"Your Majesty, you are so good to me, I love you so much!"

I've been waiting for this sentence for a long time.

He had been with Jiang Jingyue for so long, but he couldn't feel her love for him. So sometimes, he was confused and didn't know if Jiang Jingyue liked him or not.

She only agreed to become his empress because of the child in her womb.

So when he heard Jiang Jingyue say that she liked him, Jiugongting was really excited.

"Yuebao, what did you just say? Can you say it again? I want to hear it."

Jiang Jingyue pretended not to understand what Jiu Gongting meant, and looked at Jiu Gongting with some doubt.

"Your Majesty, what are you saying? I didn't say anything!"

Seeing Jiang Jingyue like this, Jiu Gongting looked at her with some anxiety.

"Yuebao, is that the sentence you just said? Say it again, I want to hear it again."

Seeing how anxious Jiu Gongting was, Jiang Jingyue wanted to pretend she didn't know anything even more.

So she still stared blankly at the Nine Palaces, "Ah! Your Majesty, I really don't understand what you mean! Could Your Majesty please give me a hint?"

When Jiang Jingyue said this, she kept her head down and didn't look up at Jiugongting at all.

Her shoulders were still trembling, as if something had happened.

Seeing Jiang Jingyue like this, Jiugongting couldn't help but reach out and pull her up.

When Jiu Gongting saw Jiang Jingyue laughing so hard, he immediately understood that Jiang Jingyue was doing it on purpose.

"Yuebao, it seems you know what I mean. You just deliberately didn't say it, didn't you?"

Jiang Jingyue couldn't hold back any longer and burst out laughing in front of Jiu Gongting.

"Your Majesty, how can you be so silly? Can't you see that I was just joking with you?"

Looking at the mischievous little woman in front of him, Jiu Gongting couldn't help but laugh as well.

After laughing, he suddenly pulled Jiang Jingyue over.

Before Jiang Jingyue could react, she threw herself into his arms.

Jiugongting didn't stand on ceremony with Jiang Jingyue either. He lowered his head and kissed Jiang Jingyue's luscious red lips.

Before Jiang Jingyue could even react, she was almost pulled into Jiu Houting's arms.

When Jiugongting released her again, Jiang Jingyue felt as if a long time had passed.

At this moment, she was still a little dazed and hadn't quite reacted yet.

Looking at the little woman's flushed cheeks and slightly pursed red lips, Jiu Gongting almost lost control of himself again.

Fortunately, at this time, he still had Jiang Jingyue's pregnancy to consider.

He struggled to control himself and managed to keep himself from doing anything else to Jiang Jingyue.

"Yuebao, are you going to tell me or not? If you don't, I might..."

When Jiugongting said this, he also reached out and pinched Jiang Jingyue's waist.

Jiang Jingyue was startled by his sudden action.

"Your Majesty...Your Majesty, please don't do this. If you continue like this, I'll get angry." Hearing that Jiang Jingyue was about to get angry, Jiu Gongting didn't stop in time this time.
