Chapter 79 The Child is Mine
Huo Zheng held Chunzhi quietly in his arms, preventing her from being exposed to any wind or snow.
"Chunzhi!" Song Anlan wanted to catch up, but was stopped by the Dongzhou soldiers who filled the courtyard.
"Sister-in-law——" Song Wan'er was almost crying in anxiety.
Chunzhi raised her head with difficulty in Huo Zheng's arms and looked at the Song brothers and sisters, wanting them not to worry, but was pressed into Huo Zheng's arms again.
Chunzhi was taken out of the Song residence before she could say anything.
The Dongzhou soldiers came quickly and left quickly. The bride was snatched away by a noble who showed up halfway, leaving the groom alone.
The guests in the garden looked at each other, not knowing what was going on. But when they saw that Song Anlan had just addressed the other party as the King of Chang'an, they knew that this uninvited guest was indeed of great importance.
It was impossible to drink at the wedding banquet today. No one dared to stay in the Song residence, and everyone said goodbye.
Song Anlan also knew what they were thinking. He said "I'm sorry for not taking good care of you" and sent everyone out.
All the guests in the garden scattered in an instant.
The red gauze under the corridor was blown to the ground by the wind and snow, and the joy was gone.
Song Wan'er wiped away her tears sadly. It was a great day, and Chunzhi was about to become her sister-in-law, but she was suddenly snatched away by a nobleman...
Song Anlan wiped her sister's tears and said softly, "Okay, stop crying."
"I, I can't help it." Song Wan'er cried half for herself and half for her brother. She said, "This person didn't come earlier or later, but just when my brother and sister-in-law were getting married. He didn't even see my sister-in-law's face that day at Wanhua Temple. How could he know that the person my brother was going to marry was the one he was looking for?"
Song Wan'er couldn't understand.
Song Anlan also felt that this matter was very strange.
Just then, several uncles from the Song family arrived.
Second Uncle Song looked at the Song residence hung with red silk and said with a sigh, "An Lan, I'm not saying you should marry anyone else. You had to marry the person that was dear to the nobleman's heart. Now you've caused such a big commotion. If the nobleman blames us, our entire Song family will suffer."
"That's right." Uncle Song agreed, "Luckily, your second uncle is a clear-headed person. After seeing that person in the main house that day, he had some impression of her. After learning that the noble was looking for her, he immediately reported the matter to the noble, and his merits were used to atone for his sins..."
"So it was you who betrayed my sister-in-law!"
Song Wan'er was so angry that she didn't even have time to cry.
The servants and maids in the Song residence are all loyal people, and Song Anlan had instructed them early on not to reveal the news that Chunzhi was here.
Everyone in the Song residence kept silent about this.
But when a few uncles and aunts came, they actually told others that Chunzhi was here.
Several uncles of the Song family were still saying that for the good of the Song family, the nobleman had searched the whole world for Chunzhi with her portrait, but couldn't find her after searching for so long. It was all thanks to their good memory that they recognized her after only seeing her once.
The Song residence is still safe and sound now, all thanks to them for using their merits in front of the nobles to offset the crime of Song Anlan secretly keeping Chunzhi.
Before Song Anlan could say anything, Song Wan'er got angry first. She cried and asked the servants to drive these uncles out.
The uncles and aunts of the Song family left cursing.
Song Wan'er cried until several handkerchiefs were wet. She asked Song Anlan, "Brother, I just heard you calling that man the King of Chang'an. Did you know that the person you were looking for, my sister-in-law, was a big shot?"
Song Anlan handed her sister a new handkerchief and said softly, "Yes."
Song Wan'er, who had spent a long time in seclusion, had also heard about Prince Chang'an's inspection of Nanzhou and the bloodbath at Prince Ning's mansion. She couldn't help but worry more about Chunzhi. "Will my sister-in-law be okay after he took her away? She just said in front of everyone that the child she's unborn is yours. Will he, will he... kill my sister-in-law in a rage?"
Song Anlan said: "Probably not."
Prince Chang'an led his troops to surround the Song residence today, but no one was killed.
Huo Zheng drew his sword and pointed it at him, but when Chunzhi stepped forward, he immediately retracted it for fear of hurting Chunzhi.
Song Anlan could see these subtle movements clearly.
He knew that Prince Chang'an had been searching for Chunzhi for the past six months, even going so far as to disobey the imperial edict. He also knew that after he came to Dongzhou, he had been searching for Chunzhi day and night.
When Song Anlan proposed marriage to Chunzhi, he also had selfish motives.
He wanted someone who could be truly kind to Song Wan'er and take care of her for the rest of her life.
Now that Huo Zheng has taken the person away, Song Anlan also wants to see whether Chunzhi wants to stay in the Song residence, or will change her mind and reconcile with Huo Zheng.
If Chunzhi really wanted to stay in the Song residence, he would go to the capital to file a complaint to the emperor just to make Chunzhi stay.
"That's good." Song Wan'er recalled the day when they came down the mountain from Wanhua Temple. Huo Zheng didn't know who was sitting in the carriage, but he still tried to rescue him. She thought he shouldn't be a bad guy.
I hope he can let go of his obsession sooner and let Haruji go.
At this time, on the carriage passing through the long street.
Huo Zheng still held Chunzhi in his arms and stared at her.
"Let me go..."
Chunzhi pushed him.
After leaving the Song residence, she no longer had to worry about Huo Zheng attacking Song Anlan, was no longer threatened by Huo Zheng, and didn't want to be so close to him anymore.
Huo Zheng held her on his lap, not allowing her to leave his arms. He asked Chunzhi, unwilling to give up, "How many months has the baby been in your belly?"
"Five months."
Chunzhi lied with a guilty conscience.
Huo Zheng raised his hand and gently stroked Chunzhi's abdomen, whispering, "Five months..."
It has been almost seven months since she jumped into the river and left him.
If the baby is only five months old, it is not his.
"I don't believe it."
As Huo Zheng spoke, he looked into Chunzhi's eyes with his eyes as dark as ink.
He slept with Chunzhi every night in Linshui Town. Chunzhi was pregnant, so the child should be his.
Chunzhi didn't dare to look at Huo Zheng.
Afraid that he would see through my lie.
"Believe it or not."
She turned her head and watched the curtains of the car being blown up and down by the wind.
The cold wind blew into the carriage, and only Huo Zheng's arms were warm.
Huo Zheng asked, "If the child in your belly is really Song Anlan's, why did he marry you only now?"
Those greedy people from the Song family came to ask for a meeting today, saying that Song Anlan had hidden a pregnant beauty in the Song house, who looked extremely similar to the person he was looking for.
These people wanted to swallow up the Song family's wealth, and they hoped that Song Anlan's marriage would fail, so they told him the whole story of why Song Anlan wanted to get married.
Chunzhi couldn't think of the most appropriate reason for a moment, and said coldly: "What does this have to do with you?"
"Of course it matters." Huo Zheng said, "The child in your belly should be mine."
Chunzhi almost couldn't sit still and asked in surprise, "What are you dreaming about?"
"If the child in your belly is Song Anlan's, then you and he just met..." Huo Zheng paused and said seriously: "You are not such a frivolous person."
"Why wouldn't I?" Chunzhi was angry and deliberately challenged him, "Didn't you and I sleep together just a few days after we met? What's more, An Lan saved my life, and I should repay him with my life..."
Before Chunzhi finished her words, Huo Zheng lowered his head and kissed her, swallowing the rest of her words.
