Xu Mian stammered, "No, no."
He suddenly kissed her tender lips. Xu Mian's mind went blank. She was thinking about him. She slowly closed her eyes, describing the love hidden in her heart.
After a long time, he let go of her and whispered in her ear, "Mian Mian, you kissed me back, and you said you didn't miss me?"
"No, that's not true."
Xu Mian covered up with a guilty conscience. He had lost a lot of weight, which made her want to caress him.
Her slender hands simulated caressing him from behind, but she didn't dare to really touch him.
Shi Jun could clearly feel her inability to restrain herself, and buried his head in her smooth neck, kissing her while mumbling:
"Mianmian, you can't fool me, stop fooling yourself, okay? You love me."
Xu Mian pushed him away, but only half-heartedly, until she felt pain.
He grabbed her soft and boneless hand, crossing her fingers tightly.
"Mianmian, say, you love me."
"No... um..."
"Mianmian, say, you miss me."
"..."
He stroked her round belly, "Mianmian must be very hard, right?"
Xu Mian moaned, "Jun, listen to the baby's voice."
A warm kiss fell on her belly. Although he didn't know it was his child, he felt it was wonderful because it was Xu Mian's.
Suddenly, a bulge appeared on the belly. Shi Jun was surprised and said, "It's a little hand. I can see it clearly."
Xu Mian tried to hold back her tears. Silly boy, this is your child. Naturally, you have a spiritual connection with him.
Shi Jun held her in his arms. Xu Mian greedily inhaled the unique smell on his body and clung to his neck.
Suddenly she came to her senses, "Go away and don't come again."
Shi Jun held her tightly, "Mianmian, wait a little longer, I will definitely take you to my side."
Xu Mian wondered why he returned to the palace. It must be King Huan who asked him to come. She said righteously, "Do you really want to usurp the throne?"
Shi Jun said nothing, only to hear her scolding, "I look down on you, go away."
Shi Jun pinched her shoulders and said sinisterly, "Mianmian, why are you on Shi Yan's side? Why do you have to make him the emperor? Why can't I?"
He was jealous and crazy. Why did she choose to stay with him and insist that he inherit the throne?
"The throne originally belonged to Ah Yan, what right do you have to snatch it?"
Shi Jun smiled bitterly and said, "What about you? Mian Mian, you and I are the ones who were betrothed to each other since childhood, you were originally mine, why did you choose to stay with him?"
Xu Mian pulled up the quilt to protect her snow-white chest, and said cruelly, "On Lingshan Mountain, I made it very clear that I love Ah Yan, not you."
Shi Jun pinched her chin and kissed her fiercely, almost biting her. Xu Mian did not resist and let him vent his anger.
He licked her devoutly until the smell of blood filled her mouth.
"Hurry up!" Xu Mian pushed and hit him, crying anxiously, "Look, I'm pregnant, do you want me to die?"
Shi Jun saw that she was pregnant and even crying was difficult, "Mian Mian, don't get excited, I'm leaving right away."
He kissed her forehead and reluctantly left the main hall. Xuelian turned around at the door and hid until she saw him climbing out of the side wall.
When he entered the main hall and heard her crying, he hurried forward to comfort her.
"Crown Princess, you must not cry. Be careful not to get a miscarriage."
Xuelian helped her put on her clothes. Xu Mian said with tears in her eyes, "Xuelian, do you think I committed murder and arson in my previous life? That's why I am bullied by these two enemies in this life?"
"Crown Princess is an angel. That's why she is loved by two such outstanding men."
Xu Mian stopped crying and asked, "No one saw him come in, right?"
"Don't worry, no one saw it. Your Highness won't know."
In Zhaoming Palace, Wei Xin reported, "Your Highness, our men are already lying in ambush outside the capital. Do you think we should move the plan to kill the king forward?"
Shi Jun had Xu Mian's pregnant look in his mind. He was afraid that Xu Mian would get a miscarriage out of anxiety. How dangerous that would be.
Shi Jun thought Xu Mian would give birth in three months and then have to rest for another month.
"Wait another four months."
"Your Highness, do you want to wait until the Crown Princess gives birth? That would probably give the Crown Prince time to make plans, which would be disadvantageous to us."
"No need to say, let's do it."
But unexpectedly, three months later, Xu Mian's stomach did not move.
Half a month later, in Zichen Hall, Shi Yan was discussing government affairs with several ministers.
A palace servant ran in and reported, "Your Highness, the Crown Princess is about to give birth!"
When Shi Yan heard this, he jumped over the table, ran out of Zichen Hall, and ran all the way to Penglai Hall.
Shi Jun saw him on the way and was suspicious. Could it be that Mian Mian was about to give birth?
Without saying a word, he hurried to Penglai Hall.
In the Penglai Palace, there was chaos. Xuelian had no experience and nervously assigned tasks to the palace maids.
Shi Yan ran into the Penglai Palace, "Has the nanny come?"
"She just came."
Shi Yan rushed into the main hall and saw that two nannies had already pulled back the yellow curtain, revealing Xu Mian's small head.
"Mian Mian?"
Xu Mian was in agony, "Ah Yan, it hurts, it hurts."
Shi Yan held her hand and kissed her forehead, "Mian Mian, I will be with you, bite me if you feel pain."
Outside the palace, Shi Jun wanted to come in, but was stopped by the guards. He kicked one away and rushed into the Penglai Palace.
As if Shi Yan didn't exist, he ran to the other side of Xu Mian, squatted on the ground, and called softly, "Mian Mian?"
Xu Mian suddenly opened her eyes and pushed him, "Why are you here, get out!"
Shi Jun stroked her sweaty hair, "Mian Mian, I'm with you, don't be afraid."
Shi Yan said sinisterly: "King Jin, do you really want me to drive you out? Get out now!"
"Why should I leave? I just want to accompany Mian Mian. If you don't like it, you can get out by yourself!"
Xu Mian shouted weakly, "Stop arguing, I'm dying! Do you want me to die? Wuwuwu..."
The two of them coaxed her in unison, "Mianmian, stop crying, be good."
Xu Mian was in excruciating pain, and couldn't turn around. She kept crying out in pain, and Shi Yan and Shi Jun didn't know what to do. Shi
Yan asked, "Why hasn't it been born yet? How long will it last?"
The old woman looked down and said, "Your Highness, the Crown Princess is already two fingers dilated. If you try harder, she will be born soon."
Shi Jun coaxed her, "Mianmian, try harder, and you won't feel pain after giving birth."
The Queen Mother asked the imperial physician to come over for a consultation and cooked ginseng soup to replenish her strength.
But Xu Mian woke up several times due to dizziness and pain, and after four or five hours, she still couldn't give birth.
Grandma Wen was horrified, "Oh no, the Crown Princess's fetus is in an abnormal position, and the two children are squeezed together! It's very dangerous..."
Xu Mianhu's body seemed to be soaked in water, and she cried, "Ayan... I'm dying..."
"Mianmian, no, you wait, I'll ask the imperial physician if there is any other way."
Shi Yan hurried out to find the imperial physician. Shi Jun wiped the sweat off Xu Mian's face, "Mianmian, it's okay."
Xu Mian held his hand tightly and warned, "Ajun, if anything happens to me... you must return to your fiefdom... don't fight for the throne with Ayan anymore... be a leisurely prince... Ayan will let you go, do you understand?" Shi Jun
shed tears. At the most critical moment, she was still giving him a way out.
Sobbing, "Mianmian, you will be fine."
Xu Mian's face turned pale, and he said weakly, "Ajun, I want you to promise me... Tell me quickly..."
