Chapter 68 Pregnant?
Xie Yao was stunned.
I always feel that what Xiao Ji said is a bit strange.
Is she at ease?
What are you worried about?
She hesitated for a moment, but still said, "If Your Highness is at ease, I will be at ease."
Xiao Ji hadn't eaten for a day, but at Xie Yao's persuasion, he simply ate a meal.
At midnight, Sinan finally received the carrier pigeon, but the person who sent the pigeon... was not the person they had been waiting for.
"Your Highness." Si Nan glanced at Xie Yao and whispered, "It's Si Xi."
Xiao Ji took it, saw the contents on the paper clearly, and his brows relaxed a little.
"Si Xi sent a message that someone hired them to kill Pei Chen today."
Si Nan: “…”
Then Your Highness can still laugh?
Xie Yao said: "That proves that Zhenbei Hou is still safe today."
Xiao Ji nodded, "Let's wait for the news."
These days, the two of them rarely got a good night's sleep.
But as soon as she lay down, Xiao Ji's hand fell on Xie Yao's lower abdomen, and his warm big palm gently massaged it.
Very comfortable.
There seemed to be an endless flow of warmth flowing into her lower abdomen, but Xie Yao was a little confused, "Your Highness?"
"Does it still hurt?" Xiao Ji asked.
Xie Yao paused for a moment, and then she said...she had forgotten something.
Her life has always been regular, and today was the day she should have been living it.
But this month...it didn’t come!
Xie Yao's heartbeat accelerated, "Dear Lord..."
She turned to look at Xiao Ji, only to find that he had fallen asleep, with his big hand still on her lower abdomen, and a constant flow of heat came over her.
Xie Yao spoke in a hoarse voice, lowered her eyelids slightly, and slowly placed her hand on Xiao Ji's palm.
Your Highness...
Xie Yao slept very well, and when she woke up, Xiao Ji was gone.
There were many more blood-boosting foods on the breakfast table. Zhu Qing said with a smile, "Crown Princess, these were specially ordered by His Highness to be stewed for you to replenish your blood."
Xie Yao: “…”
She won’t have her period again.
"Where is your highness?"
Zhu Qing hurriedly replied, "His Highness is in the study. He told you to have breakfast before going to look for him."
Xie Yao used it briefly, then got up and went to the study.
On the way, she was thinking about how to tell His Highness.
Your Highness...you won't doubt her, right?
She couldn't handle a man like the prince, let alone the torture.
"Your Highness."
As soon as Xie Yao spoke, Xiao Ji stood up and came over, took her hand and squeezed it, as if to test the temperature.
"Come with me."
Xie Yao had no way to refuse, so she was led by Xiao Ji out of the mansion and into the carriage.
Soon, the carriage stopped.
Xiao Ji got off the carriage first, and then he stretched out his hand to Xie Yao, "Crown Princess, look, where is this?"
Xie Yao helped him get off the carriage, and was stunned when she saw the situation clearly.
It’s… the Zhao family.
Standing beside the carriage with an expectant look on their faces were her relatives.
Facing everyone's concerned looks, Xie Yao's eyes instantly turned red, and her voice choked with sobs, "Grandfather, Grandmother."
"Uncle, aunt." Her eyes finally fell on the elegant scholar, "Cousin Hao."
Everyone in the Zhao family was about to kneel down and salute, but Xie Yao and Xiao Ji quickly supported them.
Xiao Ji tried his best to put on a gentle expression, "We are all family, there is no need to be so polite."
Before Zhao Ying left Beijing, he had people renovate the Zhao residence, so it could be occupied immediately.
Everyone entered the main hall.
The two old men sat at the top, both looking at Xie Yao with tears in their eyes, "They look alike, so alike!"
Xie Yao stepped forward and knelt on the ground, "Unfilial granddaughter, kowtow to grandpa and grandma."
How could the two of them be willing to do that?
He hurriedly helped Xie Yao up.
The family reminisced about the past, and Mrs. Zhao almost fainted from tears of joy.
We are reminiscing about the past here.
The housekeeper suddenly came to report, "Old Master, Old Madam, Mr. Xie is here with the young master of the mansion."
The originally warm and lively room suddenly became cold.
If it was in the past, it would have been fine, but last year I found an old friend from the Xie family and learned that the cause of Xie Yao's biological mother's death was unusual.
They wanted to eat Xie's father's heart alive!
"No, get him out!" Old Mrs. Zhao slammed the table in anger.
The housekeeper looked embarrassed.
He wanted to, but he was an official appointed by the imperial court...
"Sinan." Xiao Ji gave an order, and Sinan immediately went to pass on the order.
Father Xie dared not disobey the Crown Prince's wishes.
Old Mrs. Zhao looked at this scene with a look of relief on her face. She clapped Xie Yao's hands and said it was a good idea.
Xie Yao and Xiao Ji had dinner at the Zhao family and left with three carriages full of gifts.
They were all prepared by the Zhao family for Xie Yao. Although not as much as what Zhao Ying brought last time, their value was just as good.
Xie Yao sat in the carriage with red eyes.
With a slightly hoarse voice, he looked at Xiao Ji and said, "Thank you, Your Highness. My grandmother has already told me that it was Your Highness who had them brought to the capital in advance."
That's true if you think about it.
Sister Zhao has shown up in Nanzhou, and there is no guarantee that Xiao Hong and the others will not get angry and attack the Zhao family.
Xiao Ji's hand fell on Xie Yao's cheek, and his fingertips with light calluses wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes.
But this made Xie Yao's originally fair skin turn light red, and her eyes, which were as red as a little rabbit, made her look even more fragile and pitiful.
Xiao Ji's throat rolled slightly.
After all, he still remembered that this day was unusual, and whispered: "Between you and me, there is no need to thank each other."
"If you really want to thank me..." Xiao Ji lowered his head and kissed the corner of her eyes, "You can thank me in other ways."
"Yaoyao knows."
Not only Xie Yao's eyes turned red, but her face and neck were also red. She bit her lower lip and glared at Xiao Ji.
"Don't tease me." Xiao Ji's hand fell on her lower abdomen and gently massaged it naturally. "I've put it all in the account."
Come back and get it back with interest.
"Your Highness."
Xie Yao grabbed Xiao Ji's big hand and looked up at the person beside her, "My period has not come yet."
Xiao Ji frowned.
Last month, when Xie Yao had menstrual pain, he asked Zhu Qing and the female doctor and learned that menstruation occurs once a month and Xie Yao's periods are particularly regular.
but……
The carriage stopped.
Without waiting for Xie Yao to say anything else, Xiao Ji, with a stern face, picked her up by the waist and quickly got off the carriage.
He gathered his cloak to cover her body, then walked quickly towards the mansion, "Call the mansion doctor..."
"Your Highness." Xie Yao hurriedly held his hand and said anxiously, "I'm not sick!"
Xiao Ji frowned and said very seriously, "This is not normal."
Xie Yao felt that there was a high probability that she was pregnant, but the doctor couldn't diagnose it now, and it would not be convincing to tell His Highness.
If she miscalculates, His Highness will be happy in vain.
It would be better to wait another ten days or half a month until the doctor can make a diagnosis and then inform Your Highness.
Xie Yao bit her lower lip lightly, "I'm fine, Your Highness, don't worry."
Xiao Ji was still worried.
He ordered the court doctor to check Xie Yao's pulse and make sure that there was nothing wrong before he felt relieved. He thought about it and was still thinking about it in his heart.
If a few days passed, Xie Yao's happy day still hadn't come.
Then he would call all the doctors that Si Bei had found to take a good look at the Crown Princess.
