Hearing this, Jiang Xuanyan raised his eyelids.
"What time is it?"
"Your Highness, it's already three o'clock."
The man frowned, "Where's Chen Ningzhu?"
He thought she had grown up when he brought her food during the day, and that she would run to his study at night like last time, crying and asking to sleep with him.
At that time, considering her sincere repentance, he could let go of her.
Who knew that I have been waiting until now and the person still hasn't come.
"The young lady...she has already fallen asleep."
"Asleep? Where?"
"Return to your highness, in your chambers."
Jiang Xuanyan clenched his back teeth tightly. What a dead woman who took over someone else's nest. She really didn't treat him as an outsider.
"Your Highness, would you like to go over now?"
Seeing the man's face become very gloomy, Jiang Yishishi shook his consciousness and asked cautiously. As soon as he finished speaking, there was a burst of clanging in the room.
The fine tea set on the table was broken into pieces.
"Get out of here, everyone."
Why go? He had already lowered his posture so much, but she was still using Qiao, her little daughter's thoughts, which was really not acceptable. If that was the case, then he didn't need to indulge her.
For the next two days, Jiang Xuanyan did not return to the dormitory, but stayed in the study.
Chen Ningzhu thought he was busy with political affairs and didn't pay much attention to it, but at the same time, she felt relieved.
Ever since the Gou Prince got engaged, she really couldn't accept it at all. She couldn't even pretend to be close to him. It was good for them to be busy with their own things and not see each other.
In a blink of an eye, it was the day of departure.
Chen Ningzhu was just thinking about how to pretend to be sick when the people sent by the prince came to call her to set off.
Liu Zhiyi came forward and told the man, "Oh, what a coincidence! The young lady suddenly feels unwell. I was just about to go out and call a doctor. What do you think we should do?"
The man was stunned for a moment, then went back to report.
The two best friends made full preparations, pricked up their ears to listen to the noise outside the house, and planned to give the doctor an injection as soon as he came.
Who knew that the person who finally arrived was the maid who had just called them to set off.
"My... my lady, His Highness said that we will set off as long as we are not dead. There happens to be an imperial physician accompanying us along the way who can treat you."
The corners of Shen Ningzhu's mouth twitched.
"But I can't get up now..."
"His Highness also said that if you can't make it to the gate and take the carriage, you should have the servants and others carry you there."
The two best friends looked as if they had seen a ghost.
Is this dog prince still a human being? He won't let her go even if he dies, right? Shen Ningzhu was so angry that she was fuming. Liu Zhiyi ordered the maid to go down first, and then said solemnly,
"Zhuzhu, I have a very bad feeling. I suspect Jiang Xuanyan must have noticed something."
Shen Ningzhu panicked.
"What should we do then?"
The two men discussed it and decided to keep their troops in place and follow the Dog Prince to the south of the Yangtze River.
So, he took the luggage that he had prepared long ago and reluctantly came to the gate of the Prince's Mansion, just in time to see Jiang Qingyi coming to see Jiang Xuanyan off with a loving look in her eyes.
Shen Ningzhu rolled her eyes.
He pretended not to see her and walked forward.
Who knew that when she passed by her, she noticed that she suddenly stretched out her foot to trip her. Shen Ningzhu's lips curled up, not only did she not dodge, but she was tripped hard.
He half-lay on the ground, groaning.
Jiang Xuanyan gave her a cold look, ordered someone to send Jiang Qingyi back, and asked the imperial physician to take Shen Ningzhu's pulse. Unexpectedly, when he took the pulse, the imperial physician's eyes widened.
"How about it?"
Jiang Xuanyan asked coldly.
The imperial physician calmed himself down, exchanged his hands, and held them for a moment before kneeling down with a beaming smile. "Congratulations, Your Highness! Congratulations, Your Highness! The young lady is pregnant."
The two best friends looked shocked.
"How is that possible? Your Highness, believe me, I always take contraceptive pills."
There were a few times when she felt that the contraceptive medicine prepared by Jiang Xuanyan tasted too bitter and refused to drink it out of spite. He had to pinch her chin and force her to drink it!
Unexpectedly, the other party looked at her strangely and said nothing more.
"Well, I understand. Go down."
Even after having a child, the expression on this man's face was still dull. Not only was he not very happy, he even frowned. In the end, he did not agree to let her stay in the capital.
Chen Ningzhu had long known that he didn't want their child, and coincidentally, she didn't want one either.
But when I really reached this moment and saw his reaction, my heart felt like someone had suddenly grabbed it, and I felt so uncomfortable that I couldn't breathe.
I had no choice but to get on the carriage.
After leaving the capital and arriving at a nearby county town, the two men's carriage secretly left the team and came to a farm.
"My lord, please get out of the car."
The person driving the car turned out to be Jiang Yi.
The two then realized that their carriage was not following the team, and they got off in a daze.
Jiang Yi led them into the farm.
"This old couple will be the ones who will take care of you in the future. You should live peacefully in the manor and don't go anywhere. When His Highness returns from Jiangnan, he will personally take you back home."
Two honest and upright middle-aged men came forward, knelt in front of Shen Ningzhu and called her master.
The two best friends remained expressionless, but were ecstatic in their hearts.
It was true that after searching for a long time, one could finally find it without any effort. This way, not only could he stay in the capital, but it would also be easier for him to escape.
Shen Ningzhu was worried and tried again.
"Just these two people? Then who will be responsible for our safety?"
Jiang Yidao said, "Master has made countless enemies in the capital. More people will make you a bigger target and easier to target. This is a signal flare. If anything happens, just blow it up and people will come from all directions to rescue you."
Jiang Yi was in a hurry to get on with his journey and left without stopping.
The two best friends settled down at the farm on the surface, but in fact, they tried to contact Song Hanchuan as soon as it got dark.
Liu Zhiyi had just blew the bone whistle he had given him, and soon after, Song Hanchuan came in front of the two of them.
"When are you planning to leave?"
Shen Ningzhu's eyes sparkled as he said,
"Right away, immediately, the sooner the better."
Song Hanchuan paused, looked at Liu Zhiyi deeply, said okay, and arranged for people to set the fire. He personally watched them get on the carriage he had prepared.
As for the old couple, he took them back.
This time, Shen Ningzhu made a careful plan. She left dozens of cheesy love letters, relying on the couple to pass them on to Jiang Xuanyan from time to time!
So, three days later, when Chen Ningzhu and her best friend arrived in a small town in the north, Jiang Xuanyan received a letter from the manor.
[I watch the sky at dawn and the clouds at dusk. I miss you when I walk and when I sit. Your Highness, do you miss me?]
The signature is, Love you Zhuzhu.
Jiang Xuanyan threw it aside in disgust, muttered something about it being outrageous, and ignored it.
Another two days passed, and Jiang Xuanyan and his party rode at full speed, and were only halfway to their destination.
On this day, they encountered the fifth assassination attempt since leaving the capital. Everyone accompanying them was injured to varying degrees, and Jiang Xuanyan was no exception.
So, they had to stop and find an inn to stay, recuperate first, and then set off again.
