Chapter 983 Apology
Jiang Xue nodded in confirmation: "That's right."
"At that time, I hated Huangfu Shang to the core, and the dosage of poison I used was extremely large, so there was no way it could be a mistake."
Jiang Xiaoan explained: "Therefore, there are only three possibilities now: one is that Princess An Ning is not pregnant at all, and is just pretending; the other is that she is indeed pregnant, but the child is not Huangfu Shang's."
Xiao Zhan interrupted and asked, "What about the third situation?"
“Some pregnant women will have severe pregnancy reactions during pregnancy, and will vomit almost everything they eat;
This will cause the body to lose weight quickly and the fetus will appear very small, so although Princess An Ning's child is already eight months old, it looks like it is only five or six months old."
"As for which situation it is, it can only be determined by taking the pulse."
Jiang Xue said decisively: "Huangfu Shang will come to visit the princess's mansion tomorrow, and he should bring Jiang Yuyin with him. I will find a chance for you to take her pulse in person."
"OK."
"It's late at night, you should go back and rest first." Jiang Xue said, "Let Fudong take you there."
"No, don't bother her." Jiang Xiaoan quickly refused: "I can go back by myself."
Xiao Zhan smiled slightly: "Xiao An, are you sure?"
"Of course I am absolutely sure."
Xiao Zhan asked again: "Then how are you going to get back? Do you still need to knock on the door? How are you going to explain this to your parents?"
"Don't worry, third cousin. I have my own way."
Jiang Xue chuckled and said, "Since you have a solution, we don't have to worry too much. You should go back now. Yun Che and I should also go back to the mansion to rest."
As soon as Jiang Xiaoan got off the carriage, he saw Fu Dong looking at him with deep eyes, and he hurriedly slipped towards the back door.
Fu Dong shook his head slightly, then jumped on the horse and followed Jiang Xue and Xiao Zhan back to the mansion.
Originally, Jiang Xiaoan planned to climb over a lower wall at the back door to enter the mansion, but when he got there and tried several times, he found that he could not climb over it at all.
It seems that my only option tonight is to knock on the door of the Jiang Mansion.
However, if he did this, his parents and brothers at home would definitely think that he came home very late at night, and countless questions would probably be waiting for him.
Among these questions, the fact that he has reached the age of marriage but has not yet married will definitely be mentioned, and he will be nagged about it for at least an hour or two.
Therefore, he would rather spend the night in an inn outside the city than knock on his own door.
Just as he was helplessly preparing to look for an inn, someone suddenly grabbed his waist tightly.
He knew it was Fu Dong without looking back because he smelled her unique scent.
"How did you..."
"If you don't want to be called dumb, don't make any noise." Hearing this, Jiang Xiaoan immediately swallowed back what he wanted to say.
If someone else had treated him like this, he would have used poison powder to fight back long ago, but considering his relationship with Jiang Xue and Xiao Zhan, he couldn't bring himself to do it to Fu Dong.
This feeling of being unable to win and unable to avoid is really uncomfortable.
Who made him so unlucky to encounter such a situation? He could only accept his fate.
Fu Dong took Jiang Xiaoan and flew into the wall: "You can go back to your room and rest."
Jiang Xiaoan ran to his room immediately as if he had been granted amnesty.
Unexpectedly, before he had taken a few steps, Fu Dong called him: "Jiang Xiaoan!"
He turned around and said helplessly, "Commander Fu Dong, is there anything else?"
"I was inconsiderate about what happened tonight. I'm sorry."
Jiang Xiaoan looked at her carefully for a while, then asked, "Is your apology true?"
"Her Royal Highness the Princess requires me to apologize to you."
"I knew it."
Jiang Xiaoan said loudly: "You apologized not because you realized your mistake, but because you are absolutely obedient to Her Royal Highness the Princess. Commander Fu Dong, it is better not to apologize like this!"
After saying that, Jiang Xiaoan hurried away.
Seeing that she didn't catch up, he breathed a sigh of relief. Fu Dong felt helpless and didn't understand why Jiang Xiaoan was so angry tonight.
When I followed Jiang Xue at the border before, I often saw soldiers with bare upper bodies, and no one got angry about it.
Why couldn't he just let it go? Even if she had looked at him a few more times tonight, it wasn't intentional, so he wouldn't feel that he had suffered a big loss.
This man is so sensitive that it's unacceptable.
On the way back, Jiang Xue was already exhausted. Xiao Zhan gently held her in his arms: "Xiaoxue, take a rest first."
She snuggled in his arms, listening to his heartbeat, and couldn't help but laugh: "Yun Che's embrace is so comfortable, it would be great if it could always be like this."
"This embrace will always belong to you. You can stay here for as long as you want."
Xiao Zhan stroked her hair gently and changed the subject: "Are you worried about Jiang Yuyin's pregnancy?"
Jiang Xue sighed and said, "If she is faking her pregnancy, it may be something Huangfu Shang did on purpose; if the fetus is really eight months old but not showing, I am not worried.
I'm afraid that she is really pregnant, and the child is not Huangfu Shang's. If that happens, not only will she be in danger, but it will also give Tianshui an excuse to attack. "
"If the worst happens, what are you going to do?"
"To be honest, I haven't thought it through yet."
Jiang Xue whispered, "Let's find out the situation first."
Xiao Zhan knew her thoughts very well. Although she and Jiang Yuyin had an average relationship, she had promised the late emperor to take care of Jiang Yuyin, so she always wanted to help.
"If you want to keep Jiang Yuyin, there is actually a way."
Jiang Xue shook her head: "It's easy to keep people, but it's hard to keep people who don't want to stay. Yuyin may not be willing to stay."
The next morning, Jiang Xiaoan arrived at the princess's mansion early. When he saw Fu Dong, he unconsciously moved his feet away.
He thought she seemed to be a threat of some kind and decided to avoid her in the future.
Fu Dong noticed his actions and a hint of sadness flashed in his eyes, but he didn't care. After all, the two of them disliked each other, so it was better to keep their distance.
Jiang Xiaoan had almost finished half a pot of tea there before Jiang Xue and Xiao Zhan slowly arrived.
Jiang Xue smiled and said, "You came early. Have you had breakfast?"
"Her Royal Highness the Princess told me to come early last night, so I got up early in the morning."
Jiang Xiaoan replied: "I had some snacks in the morning, but now I'm hungry again."
"I asked you to come earlier, but not this early. I guess Huangfu Shang and Jiang Yuyin will have to wait a while before they arrive."
Jiang Xue said, "I'll have someone prepare some food for you."
"Don't let Fudong come to send you off."
Hearing this, Jiang Xue chuckled: "Fudong is my most capable assistant. It's usually not his turn to worry about these little things. You can rest assured."
It seems that Fu Dong has left an indelible bad impression in Jiang Xiaoan's heart, and he needs to try to avoid meeting them in the future.
As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Xue suddenly coughed a few times. Xiao Zhan frowned: "Why are you coughing suddenly? Did you catch a cold? Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere else?"
"I'm in good health. Even if I have a minor cold, it's no big deal. Don't worry."
