He had no reservations about Jiang Jiang, even revealing his physical condition after making her feel sorry for him. He hoped that he would have no secrets from her.
But...how could he tell her that she might be leaving soon?
Every time he thought of it, Lu Zheng seemed to be transported back to his previous life, but even if his heart were pierced by thousands of arrows, this news would not hurt him as much.
Jiang Jiang noticed that he was in a very bad state. Without caring about anything else, he pulled his hand down and said, "If you don't tell me, I will ask Ji Jin and the people you have been in contact with these days."
"No, don't."
Lu Zheng held her with trembling hands. Despite his extreme emotions, his expression became more gentle.
He told Jiang Jiang everything and waited for the final judgment.
But a light laugh was heard.
Jiang Jiang hugged him in his arms and touched his back as if he had heard a huge joke.
Lu Zheng was puzzled.
Jiang Jiang took his hand and touched her belly, and said with a smile: "What are you thinking about all day long? The imperial physician wanted to say that I was pregnant, but was afraid that it was too early and he couldn't feel my pulse accurately, so he told you this."
Who knew he could come up with so many ideas by himself?
Thinking of this, Jiang Jiang felt her heart was twisted into a ball again. She had been too sleepy these days and didn't realize that he had been struggling alone for so long.
Her voice lowered a little, and she leaned over and kissed the corner of Lu Zheng's lips: "Don't worry, I was a little weak when I was young, but Ruyou has almost recovered."
"The child and I will always be by your side. My Lord, my husband, you are going to be a father."
Lu Zheng slowly lowered his head to look at her flat belly, then looked up at her shy eyes. He felt like a person who had been rescued from drowning.
His eyes suddenly turned red and he kissed her belly lightly: "I love you, Jiang Jiang."
You may never know.
What did I think when I thought I was going to lose you?
Lu Zheng continued to absorb her warmth, and Jiang Jiang let him hold her.
After a while, Lu Zheng suddenly looked up and said, "I'll take you to a safe place. I'm afraid Prince An might do something bad to you."
Jiang Jiang: “…”
Jiang Jiang: "...Didn't you agree just now?"
Lu Zheng smiled. He had just thought that Jiang Jiang would die early. If he failed, he would die with Jiang Jiang.
But now it's different.
Jiang Jiang is in good health and will live a very long time, so no matter what the outcome is, he will have to keep a backup plan for her.
But now Jiang Jiang became the reluctant person.
"I have to stay here." She said with a serious expression, "I slept a little longer these past few days and you're like this. If you don't see me for a few months, I'll be worried about you too."
"good."
She said she would feel sorry for him.
Lu Zheng showed a rare peaceful smile.
He would protect her with his life.
--
Human aging may happen in an instant.
The emperor, who was strong and vigorous a few days ago, suddenly fell ill.
The Sixth Prince entered the palace under the pretext of taking care of the emperor, but he was accompanied by iron guards, and was suspected of plotting a rebellion.
Lu Zheng called on the imperial guards to detain him in the name of clearing the court.
However, the remnants of the Sixth Prince continued to seek justice for him, causing unrest in the court and a leaderless situation.
