This is why there has been no news from the couple for more than a year.
Seeing that he couldn't go back for a while, King Jin simply reclaimed all the vacant land in the backyard of the inn and planted tomatoes.
Prince Jin ate tomatoes every day. Finally one day, when Princess Jin woke up in the morning, she suddenly felt very nauseous. After that, she lost her appetite and felt tired and weak.
After seeing a doctor, I found out that I was pregnant.
However, in order to prevent Xia Miaoyuan from knowing that he could hear her inner thoughts, Prince Jin made up a story when he talked about eating tomatoes.

The Queen then suggested taking her back to sleep first. Princess Jin was pregnant and it was not advisable for her to sleep too late, so the Queen let Princess Jin sleep in the guest room of Kunning Palace.
Xia Zhengqi kept Prince Jin in the Qianqing Palace, and the two brothers talked by candlelight for almost the entire night, only taking a short nap in the second half of the night.
The next morning, Prince Jin followed Xia Zhengqi directly to court.
