Chapter 56 Whose Child is It?
After a hearty meal, the two of them set off on their journey. However, Duotu felt something was wrong with his body. He stopped by holding onto a tree, panting, and looked at Sang Luo in front of him with a speechless look.
"...Luoluo, what were those things you gave me to eat?"
"Roasted venison. Didn't you catch that deer yourself? Oh, by the way, there's also cold jellyfish. I caught that in the sea. It tastes good, so I raised some and put them in the space. What? Do you want to eat more?" Sang Luo also stopped and looked back at him.
He walked forward quickly and said, "Take it out and let me see it."
Sang Luo took out a large basin of jellyfish from the space.
It was still alive, swimming around in the basin, its body tinged with a faint pink. It was beautiful.
Duotu's face turned redder, and his Adam's apple twitched violently. "I actually forgot that these days are the mating season for these sea beasts. They produce a large amount of aphrodisiacs in their bodies. Eating their meat may even affect orcs..."
"Ah?" Sang Luo's hands trembled in surprise, "But I'm fine."
"This aphrodisiac is only effective on males."
"Then, what should we do?"
"Untie her for me." He picked her up by the waist. There was a cave ahead. Sang Luo blushed and punched him lightly on the chest, scolding, "I don't want to be in the wild!"
The next second, a white light flashed, and the two returned to the palace with carved beams and painted buildings, and gorgeous and luxurious decoration, just like the Louvre Palace.
The servants were all sent away.
Duotu hurriedly carried her into the bedroom and placed her on the large bed with golden goose down bedding. He said in a low voice, "Are you ready?"
He supported himself in front of her with one hand and gently stroked her cheek, neck, and collarbone... These slender, hot hands were not as pampered as imagined, and were covered with a thin layer of calluses.
It falls on the skin, causing a shudder.
His ears were already red uncontrollably. Sang Luo lowered his head and glanced somewhere. The man was already aroused...
She stretched out her soft arms, gently clasped the man's neck, and gently kissed his rolling sexy Adam's apple. Her face flushed, and she said softly, "Then you have to be gentle, I'm afraid of pain~"
Duotu reached out and hooked her suspenders, then took off her clothes and bent down to kiss her.
She ate one beast crystal after another for free, just enough to barely endure the all-night pleasure with him.
Afterwards, Duotu hugged Sang Luo, who had almost become a puddle of mud, and kissed her again and again. His low, lazy voice was filled with unstoppable joy, "I really want your whole body to be stained with my scent..."
Sang Luo snuggled in his arms and soon fell into a deep sleep.
Duotu also held her and took a light nap for a while.
Someone outside the hall reported something. He looked at the beautiful woman in his arms, kissed her on the forehead, carefully covered her with the quilt, then got up, put on his clothes, and went out.
Helu, who was dressed in military uniform, had been waiting outside for a long time. He glanced at the man whose whole body and even his hair revealed joy, and just as he was about to take a sneak peek into the house, he was blocked by the man.
"I see you don't want this newly promoted rank anymore."
"Hehe, Your Highness is so generous!"
Knowing that Duotu was in a good mood and didn't bother to argue with him, Helu quickly handed over a file. "This is the list of nobles with whom Prince Brent has had secret dealings. Your Highness, please review it..."
…
After Sang Luo woke up, the servants prepared meals in advance. Duotu was not at home. He was always very busy and had left the palace long ago.
Ever since that incident, the burden of the entire Alans Empire has fallen on his shoulders. The overt and covert targeting by various forces has been exhausting. If it weren't for her unexpected departure last time, he might have held his coronation ceremony long ago, but because of her, it was repeatedly postponed. He even wasted the best opportunity to wipe out the old party, allowing those aristocratic old clique to become even more rampant.
Sang Luo only learned about these secrets when chatting with the servants.
Duotu sent a waiter to serve, his name was Ah Man, a round-headed and sly guinea pig orc, who was quick and efficient at his work.
"Your Highness has sent another box of treasures presented by other countries. How many times has this happened this month?" Ah Man smiled and came in from the door carrying a large box.
It is filled with various agates, jade gems, rare treasures, natural treasures, cloths woven with snow silk, gorgeous clothes woven with brocade satin, and various precious materials, handmade jewelry earrings and bracelets... It is dazzling, and any one of them can be sold at a sky-high price in the market.
The Alans Empire had just experienced a huge change in power, and many nearby small countries wanted to come and inquire about the news or offer their loyalty, so they sent a lot of rare treasures. Most of the pictures were basically sent to Sang Luo intact.
Sang Luo picked out a few pieces she liked to keep, and picked out some jewelry and treasures to give to the servants. She asked A Man to put the rest in the storage room, and half the room was almost full of them.
No matter how busy Duotu was during the day, he would still come to see her at night.
On the surface, he took Sang Luo to the temporary palace, but he did not arrange a palace for her elsewhere, and let her live directly in his bedroom.
The two of them have been having a pretty ridiculous night these days...
After this incident, Duotu's temperament has undergone a complete transformation. Compared to the cynical playboy he used to be, he has become much more mature and steady. Rather than a prince, he looks more like a future monarch.
After a night of pleasure, she was so tired that she didn't want to move at all. She secretly sighed that this man could handle official business during the day and could work non-stop all night. His energy was really terrifying.
After it was over, Duotu touched Sang Luo's slightly round waist and said with a silly smile, "Is your belly a little big?"
He heard from Ah Man recently that Sang Luo was eating more and more. The boxes of treasures and jewelry he sent to her were hardly touched, but most of the rare treasures were eaten up, and half of the box of animal crystals was also eaten up.
Duotu thought of a possibility and blushed with excitement. "Luoluo, are we going to have a baby? Are you in heat this month?"
"Not yet." Sang Luo put her hand on his big hand and touched her belly. Is it so fast?
Thinking of the man's terrifying energy in bed, she swallowed a few times in fear. It might be true.
He has been sowing seeds very hard these days!
I wish she could get pregnant on the first day!
Duotu was so excited that he couldn't sleep the whole night. Before dawn the next day, he carried her to the hospital and waited anxiously outside the room, pacing back and forth.
Soon, a tall and thin witch doctor came out to announce the good news.
"Congratulations, Your Highness. Your wife has been pregnant for over a month. You should exercise restraint during this period. I will prescribe some medicine..."
When Duotu heard the word "pregnant", her brows raised with joy, but when she heard the next "more than a month", her face darkened.
He and her had their first time only half a month ago. Orphan? The time didn't match.
Before Sang Luo received the diagnosis results, Duotu took her back to the palace.
Along the way, his face was as black as the bottom of a pot.
"You're not pregnant?" Sang Luo looked at him.
He said coldly, "She's pregnant!"
"Then why are you unhappy?"
“…You have to ask yourself!”
As soon as Duotu returned to the bedroom, he angrily bit her for a long time before he relaxed and asked angrily, "Whose child are you pregnant with?"
"ah?"
"She went out alone, just for a walk, and came back with a baby in her belly?"
"...I know you are very anxious, but calm down first." Sang Luo took the diagnosis report he handed over, held her forehead and relaxed for a long time before confirming that she was pregnant.
But this child doesn't look like the one in the picture, so it can only be Aze's, because the timing matches.
Sang Luo felt complicated...
This kid came at a really bad time.
She was about to let go of that chance encounter.
"Well, what if you're pregnant? If you don't want to keep the baby, then I can only..."
"I'll raise him!" Duotu quickly covered her mouth to stop her from saying those unlucky words.
"You're quite open-minded~" Sang Luo smiled sweetly, straddling his slender, strong thighs. She put her arms around his neck and kissed him on the lips. His breathing became heavy, as most of his energy was taken away by his kidneys.
After working so hard to sow the seeds for so long, the child finally becomes someone else's. Which man can bear this?
"Whose child is this?" Duotu put his arms around her waist, his charming green eyes fixed on Sang Luo, fearing that she would utter another lie from her little mouth.
"A deep-sea mermaid."
"You really did find another male!"
Seeing that he was about to explode, Sang Luo quickly shut up and patted his chest.
After thinking for a moment, he whispered, "He's dead."
Duotu's frown relaxed and he became happy again, "I will treat it as my own child!"
It doesn’t matter if her biological father is dead. As long as the child comes out of her belly, it is naturally his child.
"But after giving birth to this baby, when your body recovers, you must give me a pure-blooded offspring."
"The pure blood last time might have been a fluke. I may not always be able to give birth to pure-blooded offspring. If I give birth to one with inferior bloodline, would you abandon your wife and children?"
"As long as it's your child and mine, I don't care about bloodline."
A child with his bloodline will not be too bad, and will definitely be stronger than ordinary orcs. At worst, he can just spend more on rare treasures, because his father went through the same thing anyway.
Duotu took time out every day to accompany her. By the third month, Sang Luo's belly had grown noticeably bigger.
The last time she was pregnant, Caesar was worried about her health, so he aborted the baby early.
Sang Luo didn’t know how long this pregnancy would last. Her appetite recently even exceeded that of the previous pregnancy, which made her feel a little scared.
Duotu held her in his arms and laid her on the bed, touching her increasingly round belly and frowning. Could the offspring of a mermaid be so gifted?
He specially found two old female witch doctors from the Imperial Hospital to take personal care of Sang Luo. He also took out many rare treasures that had been stored in the national treasury for hundreds or even thousands of years and gave them all to Sang Luo to eat.
The biggest advantage of this pregnancy compared to the previous one is that there is no shortage of crystals.
As a member of the imperial royal family, Duotu has no shortage of crystals. Her family’s wealth is unknown, so she definitely doesn’t have to worry about her baby going hungry this time!
Sang Luo returned to her daily routine of eating and sleeping. She changed into comfortable, loose-fitting white cotton maternity clothes. Looking in the mirror, she thought of her firstborn children. Before she could even see what they looked like when they hatched... they had already perished in the flames along with their father...
Her heart ached again, and she quickly calmed herself down and touched her belly comfortingly.
This time, she will definitely take good care of them herself and will not let anything happen to the children again.
Just think of it as... leaving a descendant for Aze.
She opened the window to let in some fresh air and saw layers of guards outside the palace, making it impossible to get in or out.
Ah Man finished sweeping the floor and came over. "The Crown Princess hasn't left the palace much lately, so I'm afraid you don't know. Another female has disappeared in the city a while ago. His Highness suspects the Zerg are behind this, and he's worried about the Crown Princess's safety, so he's keeping her under close protection!"
Duotu had not yet officially held a marriage ceremony with her, but everyone in the palace knew that she was pregnant with the prince's child, and her private title had long been changed to the prince's consort.
"Boom——" An explosion suddenly came from a palace somewhere.
Many guards rushed over to check the situation.
Ah Man also went there.
Sang Luo did not go out, but also released his mental power. He saw that they walked to a palace. Not far away was the corpse of an orc. A wisp of black smoke soon emerged from the corpse, and it turned into a Zerg.
Ah Man came back soon.
"What's going on?" Sang Luo asked him.
Ah Man said, "Your Highness recently recruited a group of talented individuals who can extract the unique aura of Zerg, mark them, and set up formations... This method can penetrate their disguises and isolate most Zerg! The Zerg that just infiltrated the palace accidentally revealed its aura and was eliminated by the formation."
"It can't isolate all Zerg?"
"According to the information we've obtained so far, there are many different racial divisions within the Zerg. If we can obtain more Zerg aura specimens, the formation's coverage will be even greater. If we can stop all the Zerg in due time, we won't have to worry about females being captured anymore!"
This is a good idea, but collecting Zerg breath samples is a troublesome matter. Sang Luo sat on the armchair to rest, holding her belly, and an idea suddenly occurred to her. "A pregnant female means extremely high fertility. Moreover, I'm pregnant with the offspring of a natural king beast. Those Zerg should be very interested in me. Why not let me go out for a walk? Send some people to follow me."
"If you dare to run around again, I will be the first one to catch you!" Duotu came in with an unhappy look on his face.
"This Zerg is coming for me." She took a sip of milk.
"Yes." Duotu squeezed her hand. "I sent messengers to inform the city lords of the nearby sea areas that I'm selling them this formation as well. It's a favor and will also help strengthen trade relations with the sea tribe."
Sang Luo smiled, "You are quite smart~"
Duotu also smiled, peeled a grape and fed it to her.
He bit into the sweet and sour juice and leaned over to kiss it...
Ah Man and several other palace attendants quickly retreated.
Sang Luo pushed him away with a red face, "Stop it."
Duotu sat beside her and peeled a full fruit plate for her until someone called him from outside the hall. He then gave her a few more instructions before leaving.
Sang Luo had just picked up a piece of sour orange to eat when his hand paused.
She released her mental power.
Duotu left the palace and walked into a side hall. A tall, straight-limbed man in a black robe was waiting for him. He bowed and said, "Your Highness, long time no see."
