Chapter 267: There Was

a Child Back Then Before Xu Muhua traveled into the book, she was single and only cared about making money, then retiring early to enjoy a good life. She didn’t understand love, but she also knew that love could make people live or die.

Such an example had happened to her before.

There was a childhood sweetheart who had a good relationship and was about to get married. But at this time, the bride-to-be had a car accident and died without saying a word.

As for the groom, he vomited blood after waking up and knowing the news of his lover’s death! He was ill after holding the funeral, and he followed his lover to pass away within a few months.

Both parents were left grief-stricken.

Both of them were her colleagues, and she attended both funerals. She had a particularly deep memory of the heart-wrenching cries at the funeral, and was frightened by such strong emotions.

She felt that the relationship between the princess and her husband might be like that between her colleagues.

In that sense, Ling Hongge's parents did a good thing. Regardless of their original purpose, the princess stood up for the facts.

The princess didn't know what Xu Muhua was thinking, but when she heard her praising her husband, she couldn't control the smile on her face, and her tone became proud.

"Yes, that's what I said back then."

Xu Muhua praised her husband a few more times. The princess probably rarely had the opportunity to mention her husband to others. Because the people close to her must have heard it countless times. Telling them again would no longer satisfy her desire to confide.

At this moment, Xu Muhua aroused her desire to confess, and he actually pulled her over and started to talk about the past of the prince consort.

Nanny Qi was standing aside and watching helplessly.

She felt that the prince's behavior was inappropriate, but she knew it was inappropriate and could not stop it. Because no one else knew better than her how important the prince consort was in the prince's heart.

Even though the prince consort had passed away for so many years, in the heart of the princess, he was still as vivid as he was back then.

Forget it, maybe the prince's mood will get better this way. The prince was very angry about Madam Ling's affairs these two days, and he couldn't sleep well at night. When

Miss Xu came over today, the prince's mood seemed to be better.

Xu Muhua patiently listened to the princess praising the prince consort in various ways. From the appearance of the prince consort to his talent, to his usual behavior, and even some of his little habits and hobbies, everything was revealed!

Fortunately, the prince consort is gone, otherwise if so many things were revealed, they might be taken advantage of.

However, Xu Muhua still accidentally learned one thing from what the eldest princess said, that is, the eldest princess was pregnant that year! But the child was not saved in the end!

Speaking of this, the eldest princess's brows, which had relaxed when she mentioned the prince consort, frowned again, and said self-reproachfully: "It's all my fault. If I hadn't been careless that year, the child would have been born healthy. I could have left a little bloodline for the prince consort."

Xu Muhua felt that she was actually not very good at comforting people, especially for this kind of thing.

She comforted him awkwardly, "I believe that no one is looking forward to the arrival of that child more than Your Highness. It may be that Your Highness and he are not destined to be together and are not destined to be mother and son in this life. This is all God's arrangement. Your Highness should not blame yourself. I believe that the prince consort thought so too."

The eldest princess smiled and said, "It's true. The prince consort said the same thing to me back then."

After a pause, the eldest princess continued, "For so many years, I'm fortunate to have Hong'er by my side, who has brought a lot of fun to my life."

It also brought a lot of hope.

Xu Muhua suddenly thought of something and asked tentatively: "Your Highness, from what you said, if the child had survived, would he be about the same age as Master Ling?"

"How can they be about the same age? They were born one after the other! That's why I think he is also destined to be with Hong'er."

She always felt that maybe it was her undestined child who pushed this matter, so that Hong'er came to her side and fulfilled his filial piety on his behalf.

Xu Muhua suddenly realized something after hearing this. No wonder the princess liked Ling Hongge so much.

The princess obviously didn't want to say anything more about this matter, and the topic quickly turned back to the prince consort.

Xu Muhua could only sigh silently in her heart.

I didn't expect that she would still have to eat dog food in this way.

On the other side, Pei Shaorong waited for Xu Muhua for a long time but she didn't see her. She was worried that the princess had made things difficult for her.

"Don't worry, aunt won't make things difficult for Miss Xu."

Pei Shaorong was startled by the sudden voice and she stood up reflexively.

As a result, she moved too quickly and too hastily. When she turned around, she didn't know which foot stepped on the hem of her skirt, causing her body to sprain uncontrollably!

She was sitting by the pool. If she sprained her body like this, she would definitely fall into the pool!

She widened her eyes in fear and let out a short scream. Her eyes closed involuntarily, ready to fall.

Zhao Chengye didn't expect that he had just seen her frowning slightly, as if she was worried, so he wanted to comfort her and tell her not to worry about Miss Xu. He didn't expect to scare her and make her fall into the pool. Without

thinking, he took a few steps forward, stretched out his hand, hooked her slender waist, and pulled her towards him!

Pei Shaorong felt that she had bumped into something, which hurt her nose, causing her to shed natural tears and open her eyes.

The first thing she saw when she opened her eyes was the enlarged python pattern, with two eyes staring at her.

She was stunned for a moment, and then she felt the strange heat coming from her lower back.

She finally realized what was going on, screamed, and reflexively pushed away the person who was hugging her, anxious and angry, "You, pervert!"

After scolding, she looked up and saw that the person being scolded was Zhao Chengye.

"Why is it you?"

Zhao Chengye saw that she had stood firm, and immediately stepped back a few steps, bowed and said: "I am wrong for offending Miss Pei. I saw Miss Pei was about to fall, so I was in a hurry... Please forgive me, Miss Pei."

Pei Shaorong certainly knew what happened just now, but, but his behavior was too...

She couldn't help blushing, and forced herself to calm down, and said generously and appropriately: "The Fifth Prince is in a serious condition. I should thank the Fifth Prince. Just now... Just now was an accident. You and I don't have to take it to heart. Just leave here and pretend nothing happened!"

"Of course!"

Logically speaking, Zhao Chengye should have left by now, and he knew that he should leave. But for some reason, his feet seemed to be out of his control, as if they were nailed to the ground.

Pei Shaorong wanted to leave, but Zhao Chengye stood there, blocking her way. If she insisted on going over, she would have to pass by him!

For a while, neither of them moved. Zhao Chengye looked at Pei Shaorong unconsciously with his eyes glued to her, staring at her intently without blinking. Pei Shaorong's face was

getting redder and redder, and she was anxious and shy. If
