Li Tangru was in a daze and hadn't come to her senses yet. Before she could say a word, Nangong Yue was eager to convict everyone.

His hands were so strong that it hurt Li Tangru. She opened her eyes and saw that it was the eldest prince. She couldn't help but shudder and subconsciously put her hand on her belly.

“Your Highness…”

I only said these two words and tears started flowing before I could speak.

Seeing her pretentious look, as if everything was self-explanatory, Nangong Yue turned around and glared at Li Tangyi and Nangong Jin with a frown.

"But you? I never thought that you would be so intolerant of her in the imperial palace. I will go to my father and ask for justice."

Nangong Jin's brows were tightly knitted together, and there was a hint of anger in his voice when he spoke.

"Since my eldest brother wants to seek justice from my father, then it is just right for me to go with you. Princess Xiao happened to be ambushed by a villain and nearly drowned in the lotus pond."

His words directly pushed the blame onto others. Both sides were victims, so naturally they had to ask His Majesty the Emperor to distinguish right from wrong.

A cold light flashed in Nangong Yue's eyes, and his arms around Li Tangru tightened unconsciously.

Li Tangru's heart trembled. She didn't even dare to look up at the eldest prince's eyes and buried her head in his chest.

"I think Princess Xiao is fine, but Ru Ru is pregnant, how can she bear it?"

He said this with great pride and confidence, as if the baby in his belly

It is the golden medal of immunity from death.

Unexpectedly, Nangong Jin raised his eyebrows with a smile and hugged the beauty in his arms tightly.

"What a coincidence! My princess was also found to be pregnant two days ago. I saw everything clearly on the Broken Bridge. It was clearly the eldest prince's wife who made the first move."

Li Tangyi, who had been held in his arms, twitched her lips.

What the hell was that man just saying?

What do you mean she is also pregnant? How come she doesn’t even know it?

The news of Li Tangyi's pregnancy came out of Nangong Jin's mouth so casually.

Everyone present had different expressions. Li Tangru even took a breath of cold air and her hands that were holding Nangong Yue's clothes suddenly tightened.

Of course, her strange behavior did not escape the eyes of the eldest prince.

He looked deep and thoughtful as he glared at Li Tangru as a warning.

If he messes up, he'll be in trouble!

"Congratulations, Third Brother. Having a new baby is a big deal. Why didn't you tell Father about it?"

The tentative meaning of these words was obvious, and Nangong Jin curled his lips.

"Before the baby was three months old, the doctor said that only by keeping the knowledge to a minimum can the baby's health and well-being be guaranteed."

When Li Tangru saw Nangong Jin's eyes, she felt a sharp pain in her heart. She could no longer bear such stimulation. Her eyes went dark and she fainted.

Nangong Yue narrowed his eyes, "Then I'll let Father make the decision later!"

He glared at Xiao angrily.

The Wang couple then ordered the palace servants to carry the dirty Li Tangru away in a hurry.

When they heard that Li Tangyi fell into the water, all parties naturally wanted to express their opinions. The first to arrive were Concubine Xian and the Seventh Princess.

The two men had eagerness and concern in their eyes as they surrounded Li Tangyi and asked about her well-being.

"How can you be so careless, kid? Fortunately, you are not seriously injured."

"Third sister-in-law, why did you fall into the lotus pond?"

There was a hint of coldness on the Seventh Princess's face. She wanted to know who was so impatient that he wanted to harm people in the imperial palace.

Just now when Li Tangyi was struggling with Li Tangru in the lotus pond, she accidentally scratched her leg. There was mud on the wound and it was painful.

Her face looked a little ugly, and before she could say anything, she heard Nangong Jin's cold voice beside her.

"My Lady Consort Xian, she may have been frightened just now. She needs to go back and change her clothes quickly to avoid catching a cold. I will personally seek justice for the whole story of this matter later."

After saying that, he picked up the dirty Li Tangyi and turned around.

His decisions were never in doubt.

Li Tangyi felt a little embarrassed being hugged in front of so many people. She could only bury her head in Nangong Jin's chest like an ostrich.

The two of them found a remote palace, but when they reached the door, His Royal Highness Prince Xiao suddenly turned around.

"How do you serve your master?

Go find a change of clothes for the princess."

Lingdang and Baicai had watched Li Tangyi fall into the water but failed to help, and had long been feeling guilty. Now, following the prince's instructions, they quickly went to prepare the items needed for bathing and changing clothes.

Nangong Jin carefully placed Li Tangyi on the couch.

Only then did they realize that there was not only mud but also blood on her skirt.

"Why didn't you tell me earlier that you were injured?"

There was a hint of anxiety in his voice, and he pulled Li Tangyi's legs and lifted her skirt without any hesitation.

There were porcelain fragments in the lotus pond just now, and the wound was quite deep. In addition, the skin and flesh were turned inside out after being soaked in water, making it look quite hideous.

Nangong Jin frowned, and the pain in his eyes did not seem fake.

The palace servant who was serving on the side had already brought the medicine box with great foresight, then turned around and left.

Nangong Jin cleaned Li Tangyi's wound and applied medicine. It was inevitable that their skin touched, just like a dragonfly touching the water. Wherever Nangong Jin touched, Li Tangyi felt a strange tingling sensation. She couldn't tell whether it was painful or what...

She felt a little nervous, and her hands unconsciously clenched into fists, grabbing the quilt beside her.

"Why, does it hurt?"

"No...it doesn't hurt."

Li Tangyi forced a smile. Seeing Nangong Jin's drooping eyebrows and serious face, she inexplicably felt a subtle feeling in her heart.

Is this dog man caring about her?

"It's just a scratch, there's no need to be so nervous..."

Li Tangyi's voice was dry. She felt a little uncomfortable being taken care of by Nangong Jin suddenly.

Nangong Jin pursed his lips and was about to speak.

At this time, Bai Cai and Ling Ling moved quickly, and with the help of Concubine Xian and the Seventh Princess, they quickly got some clean clothes.

"My lady, please change quickly to avoid catching a cold."

Two maids helped Li Tangyi change her clothes. She looked normal except that her face was a little pale.

"What just happened is of great importance. We cannot leave the palace in a hurry. Your Highness, go and check on the situation at Father's place."

Nangong Jin nodded slightly and turned around.

Just before leaving, he solemnly instructed, "Take good care of the king!"

After packing up, Li Tangyi and two maids followed her directly to the palace of Concubine Xian.

Seeing that she was fine, Concubine Xian and the Seventh Princess finally felt relieved.

"She is so bold. How dare she confront you directly in the palace?"

The virtuous concubine was still frightened when she thought about the scene of falling into the water just now.

I couldn't help but pull Li Tangyi with a hint of anger.

"My lady, they have come to bully me, I can't just sit there and wait for death."

A few people were talking in the inner hall when a little girl ran in in a panic.

"My Lady, the Sixth Prince has woken up..."
