Chapter 33 She was right
As a doctor, Wu Chun felt her pulse and knew that she was pregnant. She
had not been pregnant for four years in her previous life, but she was pregnant in this life. Fate seemed to play a joke on her. When she wanted to escape from Shen Sui, she was pregnant with his child.
Wu Chun closed her eyes.
Jing Lian asked, "Do you want to tell the Third Prince?"
This girl is smart. She knows how to judge the situation and observe the master's eyes. She never acts on her own. When Wu Chun does something extraordinary, she rarely asks why and just does it.
"No need. What if he knows?"
Jinglian asked in a different way: "Your Highness, are you going to give birth to this child?"
Wuchun did not answer immediately, "Let me think about it."
Jinglian looked at Wuchun's calm and almost unperturbed expression, and felt inexplicably flustered.
...
Shen Heng would send something every few days. Last time it was a route map, and this time it was a secret letter, which contained the list of people he had arranged and where to wait.
It is undeniable that Shen Heng was very concerned about helping her. I don't know if it was because he was used to doing things in a thorough manner, or because the person asking for help was her.
Wuchun didn't have the leisure time to think about it for the time being.
Wu Chun weighed the options several times in her mind. If she gave birth to the child, it would take another eight or nine months. She would not stay in the palace for another nine months. In other words, she would most likely travel all the way from Daliang's capital to Southern Xinjiang while pregnant. The journey was long and the mountains were long, and she didn't know when she would arrive. The baby in her belly would be a burden to her.
Wu Chun could not give up her free life for the child.
Personally speaking, she did not want to have any more ties with Shen Sui. Why did she need to keep his bloodline? To take Shen Sui away with this child? It was simply a dream.
Therefore, it is inconvenient to sleep with Shen Sui for a period of time. If she uses menstruation as an excuse, she can only hide it for a few days at most. According to Shen Sui's usual nature of being rude to her, how could she just stop touching him?
What should she do?
Wu Chun looked at the palace. The gray sky seemed to dye the bright red palace walls with a layer of gloom.
"Jinglian, tell King Ze'an for me that I will leave the palace in a few days and look for Miss Cheng. Can you please invite her to a banquet?"
"Yes."
...
When Cheng Jingyi received the invitation from Cheng Tong, her heart was jumping like a fish on a chopping board.
Why did Shen Heng suddenly invite people from the general's mansion to a banquet? Even if he had something to discuss with his father, there was no need to invite her, a young lady from the mansion, to participate. Could it be that he had had the same prophetic dream as her? Why did he come to her now?
To avenge her for deceiving him until his death in the dream?
Her intuition told her that Shen Heng was not such a person.
Cheng Tong intended to bring Shen Heng and Cheng Jingyi together. After all, in the end, for the sake of the name of benevolence and righteousness, Shen Sui would spare a prince of the Shen family. Shen Heng's position in the court was usually neutral, and he would not offend anyone, like a good old man. Shen Sui would demote him to a remote place as expected. It was a bit far, but life would not be bad.
It was better than living a life of worry day and night by Shen Sui's side.
The imperial family was too difficult.

After Cheng Tong's repeated persuasion, Cheng Jingyi could not refuse, so she followed him to the winery. The third floor of the winery was reserved for distinguished guests. When she arrived, there were already people inside.
Cheng Jingyi carefully looked at Shen Heng, and saw that he did not seem to know anything, so she breathed a sigh of relief.
Cheng Tong and Shen Heng did not say a few words. In order to avoid her, they went outside to talk. As soon as they walked out, a woman came out from behind the screen.
Cheng Jingyi had seen this woman in her dreams and in Yinfeng Tower.

Cheng Jingyi was a little panicked. This princess of Southern Xinjiang looked kind and gentle, so why did she come to stop her husband from taking a concubine?
Wu Chun just sat down, his eyes were very light, and Cheng Jingyi thought she saw Shen Sui's eyes.
"I heard that you want to marry Shen Sui?" "
The Third Prince is a dragon among men and a gentleman. Since the first sight, I have admired the Third Prince and would like to stay with him forever. But if that is not possible, I also hope that the Third Prince can live in peace with the one he loves and grow old together."
These words can be said to be perfect.
Wu Chun was able to find faults. "From what you said, you love him, but you are willing to let him go. You are really broad-minded. If I were you, I would definitely not allow the person I love to have someone else around him."
Cheng Jingyi heard that her words implied that she had to marry Shen Sui, so she lowered her head and explained, "I don't mean to say anything bad about you. It's just that I am of humble origin, just a little illegitimate daughter, naturally not as noble as a princess, and I don't have the power to do many things. If you don't want to, I will stop pestering the Third Prince."
"Who said I don't want to?" Wu Chun finally moved her eyes away from her nails painted red.
Cheng Jingyi looked at her in surprise.
"I see that you really like him, and since General Cheng and Shen Sui are old friends, it's not bad to marry him. Do you want me to help you?"
Cheng Jingyi didn't dare to say yes or no, she just looked at Wu Chun, looking both well-behaved and terrified.
This princess of Southern Xinjiang is not a gentle and virtuous person who is easy to handle, especially when her eyes look at her, there seems to be a hint of indifference and resistance.
Maybe even Wu Chun herself didn't notice it.
After Wu Chun finished her instructions, she left the winery through the back door and returned to the palace. Suddenly, she felt tired and a faint sense of absurdity filled her heart.
In her previous life, she probably never thought that she would do such a thing one day.
...
Wuchun came to look for Shen Sui today. When she appeared outside the Dali Temple, not to mention others, even Shen Sui was a little surprised. It happened to be the time for the court to end, so she went to a tavern with Wuchun and chose a private room with no one around.
Shen Sui lifted her chin and stroked it gently, "What happened today? Did anyone in the palace bully you?"
Wuchun turned her head away, "No."
"Oh, then you missed me." Shen Sui buried his head in her neck and pecked her neck. She smelled good, like a light floral scent, and her skin was soft.
Wu Chun couldn't help shrinking her neck and pushed him with her hand, "Let's eat first."
Shen Sui chuckled.
The stars in the imperial capital tonight are particularly bright, and Shen Sui's eyes are also clear, as if they are filled with stars in half of the sky.
Wu Chun is pregnant and can't drink. The cups in her hands are full of tea. Shen Sui doesn't know what he thought of or whether he is suspicious. He immediately reached out and took the porcelain cup from her hand.
As long as he smells it, he can smell something strange. This book is exclusively compiled for you by the LK team.
Wu Chun's heart was beating wildly. When he turned his slender fingers and carefully examined the porcelain cup, he had already thought of what to say.
But after looking at it for a while, he returned the porcelain cup to her, "I didn't expect that this small restaurant uses such high-quality porcelain cups."
Wu Chun felt relieved.
At this moment, what Shen Sui was thinking, I'm afraid only he knew.
The night in the imperial capital was very quiet, but it was not the case in the room.
Shen Sui's ears were hot from drinking wine and his head was a little painful, so he pulled Wu Chun over and held her on his lap, resting his forehead on her cheek.
Wu Chun's cheeks were sunken, and she puffed up her breath and uttered, "Why are you so heavy?"
Shen Sui looked at her with heavy eyes and smiled lightly, "You didn't hurt me, did you? Ah Chun."
Wu Chun's heart suddenly trembled, "What are you talking about, I don't understand. Is your brain confused?"
"Is it you or me who is confused?" He seemed to be talking to himself, "But one of us must be confused to get along."
"Then you are confused and I am smart." Wu Chun looked playful and stuck out her tongue. Shen Sui just looked at her with a gentle smile in his eyes.
Wu Chun was a little dazed.
It was rare to see Shen Sui's eyebrows and eyes soften. He was always cold and frosty. Occasionally, he smiled at people, but he also gave people a sense of distance.
He lowered his head again, smelling the scent of Wu Chun, as if he wanted to brand it into his bones.
Gradually, he fell silent.
"Your Highness? Shen Sui? Shen Ci Ning?" She called several times in a row, and the only answer she got was the sound of his light breathing, and his body was getting hotter.
She carefully straightened his body, straightened out the wrinkles on his clothes, and confirmed that he had been drugged before leaving the room, calling someone, and then locking the door.
After doing all this, Wu Chun's hands began to tremble inexplicably.
She tried her best to persuade herself that since Cheng Jingyi was so willing, she was not harming anyone. Shen Sui was going to be the emperor in the future anyway. It didn't matter if there was one more Cheng Jingyi in the three palaces and six courtyards. She did nothing wrong.
She was right, she was right, she was right...
Before she escaped, she didn't want to have too much entanglement with this person. She
couldn't keep the baby in her belly.
She kept walking out, but the word "Ah Chun" seemed to be branded in her ears and could not be shaken off.
It was like an inescapable spell, and also like a bad fate.
