“The prince specially sent someone to the Lin residence to pick me up last night, saying that he was afraid the princess might not be used to not having familiar people to serve her in the prince's residence, so I came!”
"The prince went to the palace last night and asked the emperor for two nannies to take care of the princess's pregnant diet and a wet nurse to look after the young prince. The prince is already looking for one."
"Your Highness, the Prince is truly devoted to you!"
Xiaodie happily addressed each of the princesses.
The fact that the prince cares so much about the princess shows that she is doing very well, and even she, as a servant, is happy to see that.
Lin Yuxin felt a pang of anxiety upon hearing this. It seemed that Li Xiaochen knew he was leaving and had already arranged everything for her.
Lin Yuxin pursed her lips and didn't say anything. After having breakfast, she locked herself in her dormitory and told Lie Yan and the others not to bother her unless it was something important.
Then she went directly into the space and cleaned up all the poisons and smoke bombs she had made to see how many were left.
Finally, looking at the two boxes on the ground, he felt it wasn't enough, so he plunged into the laboratory for five whole days.
She drinks fairy dew when she's thirsty, and eats fruit from her space when she's hungry. Brother Tiger occasionally brings her meat, but she never has time to grill it.
On the fifth day, she finally stopped, looked at the ten boxes of things on the ground, and was satisfied.
Now Li Xiaochen should be able to come back safely, right?
She knew that swords and spears were indiscriminate on the battlefield, and that Li Xiaochen's body, after her treatment, would no longer suffer from wounds that were difficult to heal.
However, there's no guarantee that something unexpected won't happen. If she prepares more life-saving items, Li Xiaochen will have a better chance of winning.
When Lin Yuxin came out, she saw Li Xiaochen sitting anxiously in the room. Sensing the commotion, he looked towards Lin Yuxin and, seeing she was there, quickly got up, pulled her aside, and asked with concern:
"Are you hungry? Why have you been inside for so long? You're pregnant now, how can you stay inside alone without anyone taking care of you?"
He was genuinely worried. He was the only one who knew about that space, and he was about to leave. Xin Xin sometimes got so busy that she forgot the time. What if she got hungry?
Li Xiaochen felt he had never been so unable to let go of anyone before; he felt that he was completely under Lin Yuxin's thumb for the rest of his life.
"It's alright, I have the elixir, my body is in great shape, and the baby isn't fully formed yet, so I'm not worried about him going hungry. But I haven't eaten meat for three days, and I'm craving some."
Lin Yuxin touched her belly and comforted him with a smile.
Li Xiaochen had no choice but to drop the topic and reluctantly asked Lie Yan to get some food.
"You! How could I not feel at ease leaving you alone in the capital?"
Li Xiaochen really had no way to deal with Lin Yuxin.
"To be honest, if I weren't pregnant right now, I'd want to go to the battlefield with you. So don't worry, I'll be fine in the capital! Don't fret! Enough of this, let me show you something!"
Lin Yuxin patted Li Xiaochen's shoulder, looking very capable as she comforted him, suppressing her sadness at Li Xiaochen's departure. The next moment, she looked up at Li Xiaochen with a self-satisfied expression and said.
Then Lin Yuxin waved her hand, and ten large boxes appeared on the ground. She pulled Li Xiaochen forward and explained them to him one by one:
"I don't care how hard you fought on the battlefield before, but from now on you must always remember that I'm here at home, and our children are here too. For our sake, you have to keep your life, understand?"
"I've prepared everything for you. These two boxes are full of medicine, including antidotes, hemostatics, and anti-inflammatory drugs. I've written them all down on slips of paper. Have them distribute them to everyone, and make sure each person carries some, just in case."
"These two boxes contain smoke bombs. Take them with you; you'll need them in battle. If you run out, send me a message, and I'll get you some more."
"This box contains my newly developed hand grenades, which are twice as powerful as the previous explosive packs and are also smaller in size. They can be easily carried on one's person and no one will notice."
"However, there is very little material in this thing. It is made from the leftover materials from the previous explosive packs. Only one box was made, about thirty pieces. Use it sparingly."
"This is...!"
Li Xiaochen watched as Lin Yuxin explained the uses of these items to him one by one; these were all things she had prepared for him in her space over the past few days.
His heart felt warm; he realized how blissful it was to be cared for.
"Did you remember everything?"
Lin Yuxin's mouth was dry from talking, but when she turned around, she saw Li Xiaochen staring at her blankly. She immediately widened her eyes and questioned him.
"I've remembered everything Xin Xin said. Don't worry, I'll definitely be back before you give birth!"
Seeing Lin Yuxin's angry expression, Li Xiaochen reached out and hugged her, making a promise.
Lin Yuxin's eyes reddened when Li Xiaochen couldn't see her.
"Your Highness, your meal has been delivered...! I didn't see anything, I'll come back in a bit!"
As soon as Xiaodie brought in the dishes, she saw her two masters embracing. She was so frightened that her face turned red. She quickly said something incoherently and left.
"What's wrong?"
Lie Yan watched as Xiao Die returned with the food and asked in confusion.
"Uh! The masters are not available right now, let's deliver it later!"
Xiaodie, carrying the tray, blushed and mumbled something before walking to the side to wait.
Seeing her expression, Lie Yan understood. He glanced around the room and thought, "Isn't the Prince being far too unrestrained? The Princess is pregnant! How could he do this?"
The two people inside showed no shyness whatsoever. Li Xiaochen hugged her for a while longer before letting go, cupping Lin Yuxin's face, kissing her on the lips, and then saying:
"Let's go get something to eat, don't go hungry!"
"Okay!"
Lin Yuxin didn't continue the topic. She knew that his departure was a foregone conclusion, so no matter how reluctant she was, she couldn't stop it.
After finishing her breakfast, Lin Yuxin was surprised to find that she didn't vomit at all today, and she didn't even cry much.
It seems that her symptoms have eased after returning to Beijing, or perhaps it's because she knows her father is leaving and no longer bothers her as his mother?
Lin Yuxin couldn't help but touch her still-flat stomach. It seems she's a good child who loves her father!
Li Xiaochen then instructed Wang Yu to carry out the ten boxes of things Lin Yuxin had given him, so that they could be taken along when they set off.
Time flies, and before they knew it, it was time for Li Xiaochen and his older brother to set off.
Early in the morning, Lin Yuxin and her family stood at the city gate to see them off, and even the Zhao family came.
"Remember, you promised me you'd come back safe and sound! The children and I are waiting for you!"
With tears in her eyes, Lin Yuxin looked at Li Xiaochen, who was dressed in military uniform, and gave him some reluctant words of advice.
"Very well! I remember. After I'm gone, if you need anything, just send someone to the palace to find the Emperor. He will take care of it for you."
Li Xiaochen looked at Lin Yuxin with deep eyes, his reluctance almost overflowing!
"Okay! I understand!"
Lin Yuxin pursed her lips and spoke softly, barely managing to hold back her tears.
