Chapter 69 Pregnant!
Another two days passed.
After more than half a month of continuous rain, the weather in the capital finally cleared up, and the air after the rain was particularly fresh.
Xiao Ji finally received Pei Chen's letter.
Pei Chen encountered an assassination attempt, but it was nothing serious.
This was within Xiao Ji's expectations. After all, Xiao Hong's people asked Si Xi to take action, so it was impossible for his people to really attack Pei Chen.
"Send a message to Si Dong, tell him to protect Miss Zhao and Pei Chen. Si Xi's attack was not successful, and these people will not let it go."
Si Xi could only give Pei Chen a few days to catch his breath.
"Yes." Sinan agreed immediately.
Xiao Ji left the study, looked at the nice weather today, and walked towards the main courtyard.
Xie Yao's day was already three days late.
She was listening to Zhu Xin's report at the moment, "Crown Princess, Song Wenbo went to Princess Heyi's residence again under the cover of night yesterday, and did not return to the Song family until this morning."
"Is his leg healed?" Xie Yao was a little curious. Song Wenbo's leg was broken some time ago, and he has been recuperating in bed these days.
"He went there with a cane." Zhu Xin said hurriedly, "Mr. Song's injury was not serious, and his bones were not broken."
Otherwise, just resting for half a month is definitely not enough.
Xie Yao nodded, "Keep an eye on the Song family."
Zhu Xin turned around and went out, and she ran into Xiao Ji at the door. She was startled and hurriedly saluted, "Your Highness the Crown Prince."
Xiao Ji waved his hand, signaling Zhu Xin to leave.
"Your Highness." Xie Yao stood up hurriedly, not sure if Xiao Ji had heard anything he shouldn't have. But seeing that Xiao Ji's expression was normal, she felt relieved.
Xiao Ji stepped forward and helped Xie Yao sit down, "I have found a few other doctors..."
"Your Highness." Xie Yao now had an idea in her mind, "Your Highness, don't worry. Didn't the palace doctor check it out?"
"If Your Highness does not believe me, you can ask the court doctor to come and see me again now."
The court physician belongs to His Highness.
"Okay." Xiao Ji saw Xie Yao's rosy face and bright eyes, then he nodded in agreement.
Although the female doctor said last time that it was normal for this kind of thing to happen a few days earlier or later, Zhu Qing said that Xie Yao was always punctual.
The court doctor will arrive soon.
But this time, the court physician took an unusually long time to diagnose the patient's pulse.
His brows were slightly furrowed, and he looked uncertain, and from time to time he glanced at Xie Yao presumptuously.
Xie Yao's expression was calm, but Xiao Ji's expression became increasingly ugly. After such a long diagnosis... there shouldn't be any problem, right?
But he couldn't make any noise while the court physician was examining his pulse, so he had to wait.
As soon as the court doctor withdrew his hand, Xiao Ji asked anxiously, "How is it?"
"This..." The court doctor hesitated and said, "Your Highness, the Crown Princess is in good health, but... maybe you need to wait a few more days before I can be more prepared."
"What do you mean?" Xiao Ji frowned.
The court doctor lowered his head even more. Although it was not a very hot early summer day, beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.
How to say it?
Could it be a pregnancy pulse?
This was originally a good thing, but... he knew that the prince had no heirs, so it was impossible for him to have his own children!
Just looking at the pulse, it is still early and cannot be completely confirmed. He dare not speak without thinking, even if he wants to, he can't say it in front of the Crown Princess.
"My skills are not well-trained. I need to go back and read some medical books." The court doctor lowered his head even more.
Xiao Ji glanced at the court physician solemnly, then comforted Xie Yao, then turned around and led the court physician out.
After finding an empty spot, he said, "Speak!"
The palace doctor's knees weakened and he knelt down immediately, "Your Highness, please forgive me."
"The Crown Princess...she seems to be pregnant."
What?
Xiao Ji was confused.
He naturally knew what a happy pulse meant. He looked at the court doctor in disbelief, "Really?"
The court physician knelt on the ground and said in a timid voice, "It is still a short time ago, and I cannot be completely sure, but..." It's almost certain.
Xiao Ji was stunned for a long time before he said, "Back off."
The court doctor didn't dare to say anything about this matter.
Rather than being angry, Xiao Ji was more confused. Xie Yao always brought enough people with her when she went out. Since they had a mutual understanding, he even arranged for people to protect her secretly.
He was very sure that he was Xie Yao's first and only man.
He... had no children, but Xie Yao was pregnant.
"Your Highness."
When Xie Yao's voice came, Xiao Ji immediately came back to his senses, his eyes fell on her with a strange expression.
Xie Yao walked up to Xiao Ji and held his hand.
Xiao Ji's hands were very cold.
"Your Highness, I have something to tell you." Xie Yao took his hand and turned to go into the house.
After shielding everyone around him, Xie Yao said, "Your Highness, did the palace doctor tell you that I am pregnant?"
Xiao Ji's expression became even weirder.
So two days ago, Xie Yao told him that she was fine and he didn't need to worry.
It turned out that she had guessed it long ago.
"If Your Highness does not believe me..."
Before Xie Yao finished her words, Xiao Ji said, "I trust you."
Although he didn't know where the child came from, he believed that his Crown Princess had not betrayed him.
Xie Yaowei widened her eyes and looked at Xiao Ji with surprise in her eyes, "Your Highness, do you believe me?"
"Yeah." Xiao Ji held her hand and interlocked their fingers.
Xie Yao only felt that her heart was beating uncontrollably because of this action, and she suppressed this strange feeling.
"This is your highness's child." Xie Yao took Xiao Ji's hand and placed it on her lower abdomen.
Xie Yao's lower abdomen was still very flat, and even if you put your hands on it, you wouldn't feel anything.
But Xiao Ji still felt this feeling was strange for some reason.
His fingers curled slightly, and his voice was hoarse, "This is Gu and Yaoyao's child."
Xie Yao leaned softly in Xiao Ji's arms, "Your Highness, I heard that it's not good for the child to announce this before the third month."
"Can we not announce it for now?"
…
Bang!
In the Second Prince's Mansion, Xiao Hong angrily threw the letter in his hand to the ground.
The letter was light and flimsy, and I felt very unhappy.
He threw the vase aside with his backhand, "Waste! Waste! A bunch of waste!"
"It's been so long, how come Pei Chen is still alive?"
In addition to Minister Li, there were several other court officials sitting in the room, and none of them dared to speak at this moment.
"Now, can anyone tell me whether Pei Chen has collected any evidence?"
Minister Li hesitated for a moment and said, "The original evidence has been destroyed. Your Highness, please rest assured."
Xiao Hong calmed down a bit, but still said, "No matter what, Pei Chen cannot be allowed to return to Beijing safely."
"This concerns your lives, so please pay attention to it."
