Chapter 17: The Disgraced Minister's Wife and the Inhuman Emperor 16



Not surprisingly, this is his only bloodline.

He held the baby girl in his arms, crying and laughing. When Wu Yishu was about to despair, Zhong Jianmin carried her to the grass, fed her some cold water, and put his steamed bun in her hand.

"Eat." Only by eating can he have the strength to feed the baby. His only blood must survive.

Wu Yishu didn't know what he was thinking, and she was so moved that her eyes were filled with tears. The general really loved her. She held Zhong Jianmin's hand tremblingly, with deep affection.
