"disappear?"
Lin Chunhuan played with her hair, which had been slightly messed up by the wind, and looked at Xiao Jinan in front of her as if she was laughing at him. "I am Xiao Cen's legitimate wife, married in a formal ceremony and welcomed into the house in a sedan chair carried by eight people."
"Her name is on the royal jade record. She is the legitimate Princess Pingyang." Lin Chunhuan took a step forward with every word he spoke.
Xiao Jinan was forced to retreat step by step with an ugly expression, and then a mocking smile appeared on the corner of his lips, "You are just an adopted son of Xiao Cen, a thing that can't even be considered a blood relative."
"Why do you think you have the right to kick me out?"
Xiao Jinan's lips moved. Although he hadn't said anything yet, his red eyes were already filled with cruelty. "Lin Chunhuan! Don't be too complacent!"
"I'm nothing, but women are nothing to my father. You're just a toy. How can you be any better than me?"
Just as the two were talking, a figure flashed past in their peripheral vision.
Lin Chunhuan was so familiar with that figure that after retracting his gaze, he deliberately moved closer to Xiao Jinan and spoke slowly in a voice that only the two of them could hear.
"I'm nothing, but...if I have Xiao Cen's child..."
"Your Highness probably wouldn't have guessed it." Lin Chunhuan's lips curled up even more, and his tone was full of undisguised provocation. "I'm pregnant."
"Xiao Cen will soon have his own child. I wonder what your position as the Crown Prince is..."
“Nonsense!”
This time, before she could finish her words, Xiao Jinan grabbed Lin Chunhuan's wrist and said, "What nonsense are you talking about? How could you have a child?"
"Prince, what are you doing!" In just a short moment, Lin Chunhuan's face was filled with anxiety, and he struggled desperately to resist Xiao Jinan's shackles.
However, Xiao Jinan's mind was now full of what Lin Chunhuan had just said. It was buzzing so much that he even lost the ability to think for a short time, so that he didn't notice that the person in front of him had already changed his attitude.
The figure was getting closer and closer. Lin Chunhuan could even see Xiao Cen's anxiety as he approached quickly. He immediately used all his strength and broke free from Xiao Jinan's hands in an instant.
With another loud scream, he fell into the pond gracefully.
The icy cold water instantly submerged the petite figure. Lin Chunhuan only had time to spit out two bubbles and started falling without even struggling.
She couldn't swim, although she used the props in the treasure bag at the beginning to ensure that her life would not be in danger and that the baby in her belly would not be harmed.
But at the moment she fell into the water, the feeling of suffocation that came over her still made her unexpectedly uncomfortable.
Unfortunately, this time the props were not chosen well, so although she was able to survive, her life had no quality at all. She was almost always aware of the feeling of being on the verge of suffocation.
I struggled in the water for an unknown amount of time, and every second was extremely unbearable.
But when I looked up, I saw that tough and resolute face.
After a while, Lin Chunhuan, dripping with water all over his body, was half unconscious and was carried out of the pond by Xiao Cen. His face was so pale that there was not even a trace of blood on it.
"Ah Huan, Ah Huan, hold on!" Xiao Cen gasped for breath, looking extremely flustered.
He is Xiao Cen!
It was Xiao Cen who single-handedly rescued the current emperor from the rebels.
It was Xiao Cen who led an army of 900 and dared to confront 14,000 enemy troops head-on.
It was Xiao Cen who defied all odds and supported the current emperor's ascension to the throne with just one man and one sword!
He had lived for half his life, and he had seen all kinds of big scenes, but he had never lost his composure like this.
His face was pale, and his hands were almost unconsciously pressing on Lin Chunhuan's chest, his eyes fixed on her mouth and nose.
Although Xiao Cen didn't say a word, everyone around him could feel the panic that he couldn't suppress at all.
"Ah Huan, Ah Huan, open your eyes and look at me!"
Xiao Cen's voice was trembling, with a hint of begging, "I know you definitely don't remember me. I haven't been able to tell you about our past yet."
"Wake up, please! As long as you wake up, I will listen to you. I will listen to you in everything!"
However, no matter how Xiao Cen begged, Lin Chunhuan's breathing became weaker and weaker under his palm. Many soft-hearted female relatives turned their eyes away quietly when they saw this scene, unable to bear to watch it any longer.
It seemed as if everyone could foresee that this girl, who had only been a princess for a few months, might not survive.
Among all the people, only Xiao Jinan was confused.
Or rather, he had been so confused ever since Lin Chunhuan fell into the water, standing there completely at a loss.
Because no one knew better than him that he had never pushed that woman!
That woman jumped down by herself!
But, but... How could someone who jumped into the water actually die? This is illogical!
"Father...Father..."
Xiao Jinan wanted to say something, but before he could even begin, Xiao Cen's cold gaze fell on him. "If Ah Huan is alright today, that's all that matters."
"If she doesn't wake up, you will be buried with her."
The overwhelming murderous intent instantly swept over Xiao Jinan, so overwhelming that Xiao Jinan could not stand still.
There is nothing around me, but I can't breathe at all!
However, at this moment, a cough sounded in everyone's ears, which sounded extremely pleasant.
Streams of water choked out of Lin Chunhuan's nose and mouth. Generally speaking, as long as the water can be spit out, the person can survive.
“It hurts!”
Before Xiao Cen could be happy, Lin Chunhuan in front of him had already frowned and was holding his stomach with an uncomfortable expression.
The look he gave Xiao Cen was filled with fear and nervousness. "Xiao Lang, Xiao Lang! Save our child!"
"The prince, he wants to kill our child...Ah! My stomach, my stomach hurts so much! My child!"
Xiao Cen was completely confused.
Even though he heard every word of Lin Chunhuan very clearly, he couldn't understand them all when they were put together.
He was injured on the battlefield in his early years. Although he had no problems in that aspect, he really could not have his own children. So Xiao Cen could not understand what Lin Chunhuan said at all.
It wasn't until Xuanji County Lady, who arrived later, suddenly shouted, "Ah! The princess is bleeding so much!"
"Why is there so much blood?"
Xiao Cen followed his gaze and found that Lin Chunhuan's skirt, which was already soaked, was now stained red with a glaring blood color!
However, they were in the East Palace after all. Although it was not as good as the Imperial Palace, there were always imperial doctors stationed here. They immediately transferred Lin Chunhuan, who fell into a coma again, into the house.
So when she woke up, there was a priceless soft silk curtain in front of her, and ambergris worth one or two thousand gold coins around her. Her wet clothes had been changed, and she was dry and warm.
