Chapter 148 I can touch your abdominal muscles
Xiangying was sleeping soundly and had no idea that the world outside the tent was turned upside down.
Xiang Qianqian told Concubine Shu the news she had learned from Military Supervisor Ke.
Shufei then told Defei and the others about this, and soon rumors spread among the exile group that Xiangying had fallen seriously ill and would not live long.
Even Concubine Shu instigated Concubine De to take a group of female relatives to negotiate with Tao Xue.
"If the princess is really dying, you can give us some of the food and clothes she left behind. We will also take care of you on the way."
Tao Xue's eyes were red as she stopped them outside the tent: "Don't be so presumptuous! The princess is just feeling unwell, nothing will happen to her."
Concubine De sighed, "General Ke saw it with his own eyes, how could it be false? Besides, didn't you see that the deputy general has been in the tent for such a long time and hasn't come out? He must be incurable."
Qi Fengyi was chopping wood nearby, each piece of wood getting heavier than the last.
She tried her best to control her impulse. Xiangying had taught her that if she couldn't control it, she should vent it in other ways.
But now she really wanted to chop Defei on the head with an axe.
Finally, when Concubine De asked Taoxue to share supplies with them for the last time, Qi Fengyi kicked away the chopped firewood and rushed over with an axe in hand.
"Shut up and get out!" she shouted, with a sharp axe in her hand, scaring Concubine De and the others so much that they took a step back.
When Concubine Shu, who was hiding nearby, saw this, she felt something was wrong and frowned.
I was glad that it wasn't her who went.
Concubine De frowned: "Young lady from the Qi family, what do you mean by this?"
"What I mean is, whoever spreads the rumor that my sister is about to die of illness, I will send him to see the King of Hell first!" A cold voice came from behind.
Defei looked back and saw Lin Lingxiang holding an umbrella and walking towards her, supporting Xiangli.
The prince's majesty was still there, and the women around Concubine De couldn't help but make way for him.
Xiangli came over, and I felt a sense of reassurance.
Concubine De softened her tone and said, "Your Highness, the Crown Prince, the eldest princess is your sister. If anything happens to her, you should have considered us earlier."
Xiangli's eyes were dark and cold, filled with ink that was darker than the dark clouds in the sky.
"Now I am not the crown prince, but Xiangying's brother. You only need to remember one thing. If my sister really dies, I will not let her go alone."
When he said this, his eyes were filled with murderous intent.
The prince, who has always been gentle and elegant, rarely shows this side of him.
When he was in the capital, he always treated the palace ladies with a pleasant face.
Defei was frightened, and Zhao Bingyang, who came from behind, pulled her back.
"The Concubine Shu asked you to go back first, saying that if the princess is a lucky person, she will be blessed by heaven."
The three little ones were originally wiping away their tears, but when they heard Zhao Bingyang's sarcastic words, Xiang Yuanxiao was the first one to hold back his tears.
He rushed over with a brisk step: "You bad guys, you want to take advantage of your bad mother's illness to steal our things."
"I will never allow you to do this! You will definitely feel the same pain as my mother. You, you, and you will all feel uncomfortable!"
Xiang Yuanxiao's little finger pointed in a series.
Concubine De, Concubine Shu who was peeping from a distance, Zhao Bingyang who was nearby, and Military Supervisor Ke who just passed by.
He didn't let any of them go.
The little guy was so angry that his heart was beating fast and blood was flowing from both nostrils.
Defei was afraid that Xiang Yuanxiao had fallen ill and that Xiangli would blame her for the loss of Xiangying.
She said "It's none of my business" and ran away in a hurry with her people.
Tao Xue felt so distressed that she pulled Xiang Yuanxiao into the tent and wet a towel to wipe the blood off his face.
"Don't be angry, young prince. The princess is blessed with good fortune and will be fine."
The little ones huddled together and sobbed.
Xiang Xiuxiu choked up: "I want to go see my mother."
When Xiangli walked in, the three little ones threw themselves into his arms and hugged his legs.
Xiang Yuanxiao looked up, his watery eyes were red, but he refused to admit that he was crying.
"Uncle, will she be okay?"
"No," Xiangli said in a soft and gentle voice. Even though there was worry in his eyes, he did not show it to the children. "I believe in Aying, and you should believe in her too."
Xiang Xiuxiu wiped her tears with her little hands and said, "That's right, mother is so powerful, she will definitely turn danger into safety."
Just now Taoxue took them to visit, but they couldn't see Xiangying at all.
I heard from the skinny monkey who was guarding outside that Xiangying was still unconscious, but since Jie Chen was guarding him, there was no need to worry.
While everyone was not paying attention, Xiang Yuanlang ran out of the tent with a stern face.
He trotted all the way and found the tent where Xiangying was resting. He went around it, lifted up a corner and went in.
However, before he stood up, he saw a pair of black boots parked in front of him.
Looking up, Xie Chen's cold and stern face was right in front of me.
Xiang Yuanlang was caught, but he was not afraid at all. After being pulled up by Jie Chen, the little guy said directly: "I want to see my mother!"
He has never called Xiang Ying "Niang". Even though Xiang Yuanxiao has gradually let down his guard towards Xiang Ying along the way, Xiang Yuanlang still maintains a cold distance.
He was probably anxious this time, although the little guy couldn't see it on his face.
Xie Chen did not blame him for sneaking in, but put his big hand on his shoulder.
"Yuen Long, you are the second oldest, but I can see that you are calmer than your eldest brother."
"I don't know what disease your mother has, but I hope you can do me a favor."
"Keep an eye on your brother and sister for me, and wait patiently. I won't let anything happen to your mother. This is the promise I can make to you."
Xiang Yuanlang looked him up and down with dark and cold eyes.
"My mother said that you can't trust everything a man says, especially a handsome man."
Xie Chen was stunned and laughed: "But you can believe what I said."
Xiang Yuanlang tilted his head slightly: "Why, what's so special about you?"
Xie Chen pursed his thin lips, turned around, and glanced at the sleeping Xiangying out of the corner of his eye.
He couldn't help but lower his voice.
"My only difference is that I can take on the responsibility of taking care of you in the future, like a father."
Xiang Yuanlang was surprised: "I treat you as an enemy, but you treat me as a son?"
Xie Chen's face darkened.
Why does this sound like something Xiangying taught me?
He reached out and rubbed Xiang Yuanlang's little head.
"I'm telling you not to worry too much. If your mother doesn't get better, I'll take her down the mountain to find a good doctor at night."
Xiang Yuanlang thought silently for a moment, his cold little look was exactly the same as Jie Chen's usual self.
Finally, he said, "If you want to take her away, you have to take us with you, otherwise, you won't have the chance to be our father in the future!"
Xie Chenqi laughed.
He wanted to keep the child, so why did he let him go and even made promises?
After thinking for a while, Xie Chen nodded: "Okay, it's a deal."
Xiang Yuanlang stretched out his small black hand that had been through the mud and said, "Hook."
After Jie Chen made a pinky promise with him, the little guy tried to get out from behind the tent again. Jie Chen called out to him, and he obediently lifted the curtain and walked out from the main door.
It is unknown what Xiang Yuanlang said when he returned this time. Jie Chen then arranged for Skinny Monkey to go there and ask, and learned that Tao Xue and the others were unusually calm.
It was almost evening when Xiangying finally woke up.
She opened her eyes dazedly, and the first thing she asked was Jie Chen: "Can I touch my abdominal muscles? I want to see if I'm still alive."
Xie Chen’s handsome face turned cold.
He was worried about Xiangying and never left the tent. He thought she really had some serious illness, but when he heard her say this, he knew she should be getting better soon.
However, Jie Chen still held her wrist: "Okay, you can touch it."
Xiangying's eyes widened instantly, and the sleepiness in his eyes dissipated.
Did she hear it right?
However, Xie Chen just held her wrist tightly, his eyes deep as he said, "But before that, you have to answer a question for me."
Xiangying felt a little more comfortable and sat up. Her long black hair fell on her shoulders, adding to her feminine charm.
She took two sips of hot tea: "What's the problem?"
Xie Chen paused and said in a low voice: "When was your last menstrual period?"
