When Ye Nandie heard this, her face turned extremely horrified and she couldn't help but scream, "You can't do this."
"Why can't I do this? Who cares? I guess you gave the Ouyang family head a slow-acting poison because he found that his son didn't look like him or that concubine?"
Ye Nandie's eyes dodged, "No, it's not what you guessed. He died of illness."
Chen Jingxi looked at her coldly. Ye Nandie had married into the Ouyang family while pregnant. Before she was about to give birth, the head of the Ouyang family went out for something, so she drugged the concubine so that she would give birth to a child on the same day.
She then lied that her child had died prematurely and exchanged her own child with her concubine's.
In this way, she eliminated the possibility of her son being suspected. Both of them were born prematurely, so the difference between them could not be that big.
Ye Kang also had some deficiencies because of this. The concubine found out that there was something wrong with the child, but was killed by Ye Nandie.
After that, she basically silenced everyone who knew about this matter, except for a maid who served her.
It was a month later when the head of the Ouyang family returned to the Ouyang family. The child had grown up, and it was difficult to judge whether it was full-term. He did not think much about these things.
Ye Nandie turned and threw herself at Chu Jinghuai, begging, "Your Highness, you can't let her do this. I am Xu'er's mother, and I will not leave my son."
Chen Jingxi said: "Since you can't leave your son, then take him back with you."
Ye Nandie seemed to have heard something terrible and quickly waved her hands, "No, no. If they knew Xu'er wasn't from the Ouyang family, they would definitely kill him."
"Don't worry, the prince and I won't let the Ouyang family kill him. At most, he will lose his former glory and wealth."
"No, that won't work either. Xu'er is a nobody, how can he live a hard life? He was born to live a life of luxury."
Chen Jingxi sneered, "His life of wealth and splendor, with hordes of servants, was all stolen from others."
Ye Nandie seemed to be provoked and shouted: "No, no, he is the emperor's grandson, he is the emperor's grandson. Jing Huai, are you so cruel?"
Chu Jinghuai had no expression on his face and said coldly, "Is this the first day you've met me?"
Ye Nandie was already a little crazy at this time, crying, "I don't care, I don't care. You must take good care of us mother and son for Jingli. You promised him."
"So what if I agreed? From the beginning to the end, I have never owed Jingli anything, and you are worthy of dying a thousand times."
Seeing Ye Nandie almost going crazy for her son, Chen Jingxi, who was about to become a mother, did not feel any sympathy or pity.
To her, Ye Nandie was an enemy, and she originally wanted to kill her, but when she heard her talk about the Ouyang family's immense wealth, she suddenly had an idea.
She didn't mind using Ye Nandie to exchange for some benefits from the Ouyang family. Of course, Ye Nandie would not survive if she returned to the Ouyang family. She was just a way for the Ouyang family to vent their anger.
People from the Ouyang family arrived soon, and they did not pursue the matter of Ouyang Jian assassinating Chu Jinghuai.
But in exchange, they must take Ouyang Xu back and continue to raise him. As for how to raise him, the Ouyang family can decide for themselves.
Ouyang Family: Damn it, Prince Su, can't you afford to raise your own nephew? And you still ask them to raise him? They raised him for four years in vain, and it's not enough, they also have to raise him until he reaches adulthood.
So infuriating!!
Chen Jingxi: And my Su Wang Mansion will invite a teacher to teach these two children.
The Ouyang Family: I want to pound the table! Do they look like someone who can't afford a teacher? It's obvious that your Su Palace wants to control the future head of my Ouyang family.
Chen Jingxi: No, I just wanted to ensure the two children grew up safely and that Ouyang Kang could inherit the family business. Of course, I teach and answer questions. Once a teacher, always a father. These two children have been without a father since they were young. It's really pitiful.
Watching the Ouyang family leave as if they had eaten ten pounds of explosives, Chen Jingxi had a good sleep.
When Chen Jingxi woke up, the sun was already setting. She opened her eyes and looked over, but did not see Chu Jinghuai.
When the maid saw Chen Jingxi wake up, she hurriedly brought clothes to the bed and said, "Princess, the prince is practicing sword in the yard. He specifically asked the kitchen to prepare your favorite dishes, braised golden hook shark's fin and Longjing shrimp. The prince also said that you can eat them when you wake up."
Chen Jingxi nodded and changed her clothes with the help of her maid. Because of her large belly, she had trouble sleeping last night, so she skipped lunch and felt sleepy. This time, she slept for quite a while.
Walking out of the room, Chu Jinghuai was practicing sword in the yard in a single piece of clothing.
Chen Jingxi stood by and watched, his sword moving like a dragon, astonishing like a graceful swan. Every movement was so beautiful that it seemed as if it had been carefully choreographed.
Chen Jingxi was a little dazed.
Chu Jinghuai practiced sword skills, keeping his eyes and ears alert in all directions. Naturally, he knew that Chen Jingxi was watching him. He turned over and sheathed his sword.
When he walked forward, Chen Jingxi came back to her senses and handed him a handkerchief. "Your Highness, are you not going to practice anymore?"
Chu Jinghuai wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "I'm worried that you'll get bored after waiting for too long."
"Your Highness, this swordplay is beautiful. I like it."
"That's it. I'll show you how to do it someday."
Chen Jingxi nodded and said, "Okay."
After a while, the two of them went to the main hall to have dinner. There were indeed the two dishes that Chen Jingxi liked. Since she became pregnant, her taste had changed a lot.
She is also very picky. She can tell whether the ingredients are fresh, the seasonings are good, and whether the cooking time is right just by tasting them. If there is anything wrong in the slightest, she will not eat it.
Chen Jingxi even cried because of this. She was not like this before. Chu Jinghuai could only comfort her, saying that it was the brat in her belly that was causing trouble, and it was not her fault.
With someone to take the blame, Chen Jingxi had no burden to complain about the chef's cooking and would not eat anything he was not satisfied with.
