"What is Your Highness trying to do?"
"Since you have already acknowledged the child in my womb, then you are his father. Before you depart on your journey, say goodbye to your child."
As Zhao Zhi spoke, she choked up.
Shen Hanshan was surprised by her reaction. It was as if they were parting from a real married couple.
"Whoa!" The next moment, Shen Hanshan suddenly raised his hand, then carefully placed it back on the ground, and said excitedly, "So naughty, it even kicked me just now, it must be a boy."
"You like boys?" Zhao Zhi asked subconsciously.
"It doesn't matter if it's a boy or a girl. As long as it's a person I care about, I'll like them." Shen Hanshan replied without hesitation.
He then realized that it was inappropriate for him to say these things to the princess.
He immediately withdrew his hand awkwardly and instructed Lanru and the others to take good care of the princess.
"Respectfully seeing off the Prince Consort!"
After seeing Shen Hanshan off, the group helped the listless Zhao Zhi back to her room to lie down.
Yun Li only appeared after Lan Ru and the others had all left.
"Brother?" Zhao Zhi's face showed surprise and boundless joy.
She stood up and tried to take Yun Li's hand, but found that she had missed.
"Brother, you, you—" She couldn't hold back her tears and covered her face.
Only when a person dies will they cease to have a physical form.
"Zhizhi, don't cry. I'm not dead." Yun Li said, both amused and exasperated.
He patiently explained the secrets of the Thousand-Mile Soul-Tethering Technique to Zhao Zhi.
Zhao Zhi then stopped crying and laughed, "You scared me to death!" Then she complained, "Brother promised to take me away the day after our wedding, but look, it's been several days now and he still hasn't come!"
Yun Li was about to explain that he had sent people to pick her up a few days ago, but they were intercepted and killed en route. The same group that intercepted them then attacked Zhao Zhi.
Then he remembered that the Emperor of Yun Dynasty had secretly sent Shen Hanshan, a former general, to Chaoyang County. There must be a hidden reason behind it.
Fearing that Zhao Zhi would worry, he suppressed his doubts and lied, saying that he had been delayed by something and had come to apologize and explain to her.
"Brother, when can we finally take Zhizhi away?" Zhao Zhi asked in a low voice. "There are spies from my imperial brother in this palace..."
“I know you’re not having a good time, Zhizhi, wait for me a little longer. Once your brother has dealt with all the problems here, I’ll bring you over.”
"Okay," Zhao Zhi said dejectedly.
"Brother, please be careful." She waved goodbye to Yun Li.
Yun Li nodded. "You too, take good care of yourself and the child."
Yun Chao and Yun Li opened their eyes, took a deep breath, and tried to calm themselves down.
He looked up at the window; dusk was falling.
He knew he had no time to hesitate any longer.
He stood up, opened the door, and instructed Cui Jiu, who was guarding outside, "Cui Jiu, go and prepare immediately. We'll take action tonight."
