Xu Zhiyi was startled and wanted to open his eyes but was covered by a pair of rough hands.
The familiar touch instantly made her relax.
"Why are you here now?"
She pulled her calloused hands down.
Lu Yan looked at Xu Zhiyi who had just taken a shower.
Her sweet cheeks, cherry lips, watery eyes and fair skin all turned pink, and I dared not look any further.
He closed his eyes, lowered his head and kissed her, his mouth full of alcohol and his lips pressed hard.
Xu Zhiyi tried to push him away, using force with his ten fingers.
"You're crazy. Qinglv will be here soon."
Lu Yan separated from her, rubbed her tender lips with his fingers and said:
"It's okay, Qinglu is my people, everyone in your courtyard is my people. Except for the two you took out, everyone else is drinking. There is a little drug in the wine, which can make people not notice when they wake up.
Don't worry, how could I dare to put you in danger? I'll go back to the house and wait for you."
"Your people?"
"Yes, my people."
Xu Zhiyi glared at him fiercely:
"Why don't you say she is your woman?"
Only then did Lu Yan realize what she was worried about:
"I usually say I'm jealous, but when you're jealous, you're just as jealous as I am."
Lu Yan also learned how to be jealous from Xu Zhiyi.
He slipped away after he finished speaking.
Xu Zhiyi called Qinglu to change her clothes.
When she returned to the house, she saw the man lying on her couch, as if he were at home.
She walked over and pinched his waist:
"The maid didn't go to serve you today, why are you coming to my place?"
"Today is New Year's Eve, I want to tell you in person."
"I wish my Zhiyi and the baby in my belly peace and happiness in the new year."
Then he took out a red envelope:
"This is your New Year's money."
"I'm already this old, why do I need lucky money?"
But he still took it happily and wanted to open it to see how much money was inside.
"Open it tomorrow. You should put the New Year's money under your pillow overnight."
In fact, he hadn't celebrated New Year's Eve for a long time. This custom was told to him by the grandmother who took care of him when he was a child.
Every New Year’s Eve is the happiest moment for him, and he hopes that his Zhiyi can be happy too.
"Why are you suddenly talking about palace maids?"
He wondered what was going on tonight, and it turned out that this person was jealous.
"Don't think I didn't see it. Did the maid splash it on you on purpose today?"
She had heard that eunuchs in the palace would look for palace maids as their consorts. After trying hard to recall, she realized that the young palace maid today was indeed quite good-looking, and it was considered that she had good taste in choosing Lu Yan.
Now that I'm pregnant, I don't know what the other person is thinking. I just started having sex, how can I hold back? I haven't gone back since then.
Who knows what he did behind his back, his cheeks puffed up with anger.
Lu Yan poked her bulging cheeks with his hand, then lowered his head to coax her:
"I don't know, but I avoided her later and I can't remember her face. If you mind, I'll make her disappear."
Is it because he has been in such a good mood recently that even the palace maids dare to find him?
Pregnant women are the most sensitive, and he doesn't want to provoke them.
Xu Zhiyi shuddered, thinking that it would be better to forget about killing one person.
She shook her head.
Lu Yan touched her forehead again:
"Does our Zhiyi want to be queen?"
If he wanted to, he would speed up and help her remove the obstacles.
Xu Zhiyi shook his head again:
"Being the Empress means more contact with the Emperor. I don't want that. It wouldn't be safe for you to come to me. I don't want to put on a show in front of him. As long as the children and I are safe, that's all that matters."
The emperor would stay in the empress's bedroom at the beginning and middle of every month. However, in recent years, the emperor had not followed this rule in order to have more children and the empress was getting older.
If it were her, she might have restored this tradition.
Lu Yan held her waist and thought to himself that his sweetheart was such a cutie. Sometimes, if you don't touch someone, they will come to understand you. Forget it, as long as he protects her.
"By the way, Xia Xiu'er lost her pregnancy and is still being cared for in the courtyard where she used to live. The doctor said that her condition was fundamentally damaged and it will be difficult for her to get pregnant in the future."
Lu Yan didn't want to mention Gu Jingyan's matter, but Xia Xiuer had bullied Xu Zhiyi behind her back, so maybe she would be happy to hear this news.
When Xu Zhiyi heard that Xia Xiuer had miscarried, it was something he had expected. After all, there was blood all over the floor and even gods couldn't save her.
Getting hurt was totally unexpected, but it was her atonement.
"Why isn't that jealous anymore? Why is she even talking about Xia Xiu'er?"
"I didn't care about my own feelings just to make you happy. It's a pity that some people don't understand and only think about Brother Jing Yan."
"Okay, you don't want me to call you husband again, do you?"
Lu Yan shook his head. Her belly was so big now, and he didn't want to listen to Xu Zhiyi getting angry and then running away. He always had to put out the anger himself.
"Why is this place being strangled like this? How does the Ministry of Internal Affairs work?"
Xu Zhiyi was wearing loose clothes, and accidentally revealed the marks left by being squeezed today.
"Don't blame them, I'm just growing too fast. Look, am I fat now?"
Lu Yan stared at it carefully for a while, his voice slightly hoarse:
"Not fat, good looking."
He leaned over and kissed Xu Zhiyi's belly carefully and tenderly.
Sit up again.
Xu Zhiyi seemed dissatisfied with this answer:
"Is it really pretty? You haven't even told me you like me, I don't know how anyone can be so stubborn!"
"It looks good, stop teasing me, don't you know whether I'm hard or not?"
Xu Zhiyi clearly sensed a change behind him and nudged him:
"Why don't you leave?"
"The Emperor will be at the Queen's place tonight. Don't worry. I want to greet the new year with you."
Xu Zhiyi usually likes to read sketchbooks, so he asked Qinglu to buy him a copy of the sketchbook that Xu Zhiyi had been reading for a long time.
Although he is usually very busy, he still takes time to read picture books.
Many times, I cannot understand why the language is so flowery and sticky.
But Xu Zhiyi loves to watch, so he is willing to learn more, so that he can please her more.
Xu Zhiyi felt sleepy easily during pregnancy, and she fell asleep not long after.
When the fireworks sounded in the palace, she opened her eyes in a daze.
Then she saw Lu Yan gently kiss her forehead.
Cheers came from far away outside the window.
Lu Yan patted her back again and again.
Time flies by so fast,
Under the protection of several groups of people, Xu Zhiyi's belly was already eight months full.
Lu Yan knew that twins were usually born early, so he had been feeling a little anxious these past few days.
