Chapter 137

Only then did Concubine Zhu realize that there was a stranger next to her.

Just now she saw Prince Wang, Seventh Aunt and others standing at the door. She instinctively thought that the guests had all left. Who was this person?

Prince Li's face flushed red, and he clasped his fists towards the Left Imperial Physician, "I'm sorry to have embarrassed you, Imperial Physician Zuo."

When Concubine Zhu heard the name "imperial physician", she was surprised to find that the imperial physician had come to the palace. Was it another distinguished guest?

Concubine Zhu hurriedly got up, straightened her clothes, and saluted the left imperial physician, "Excuse me, left imperial physician, I just lost my composure."

Doctor Zuo nodded awkwardly and was about to leave.

"You know you're losing your composure, so why don't you get out now!" Prince Li glared at her fiercely. In the past, Concubine Zhu was so good at pretending, and he really didn't realize that Concubine Zhu had such a disgusting side.

Concubine Zhu didn't know who else was inside, so she naturally didn't want to leave. But when she thought about the scene just now, she realized that she couldn't stay any longer, so she had to think about it carefully. So Concubine Zhu reluctantly bowed and left. Before leaving, she glanced at Seventh Aunt.

The Seventh Aunt was shocked. The look in Concubine Zhu's eyes seemed like she wanted to cut her into pieces.

Ye Mei stepped forward, held Seventh Aunt's arm, and reassured her.

If Seventh Aunt dares to cause trouble again in the future, I will punish her every time!

The Seventh Aunt nodded. The feud had already been formed. No matter how humble she was, Concubine Zhu would not let her go. So she had to work hard to become stronger.

Xia Xue woke up quickly, and Chu Zhenxuan hugged her, his body trembling slightly.

Xia Xue looked confused, "What's wrong with me?"

"You've been too tired lately, it's all my fault!" Chu Zhenxuan said affectionately.

Xia Xue smiled bitterly, "Is the snake poison acting up again? The emperor of the Southern Kingdom is a complete liar, and I haven't cured the poison yet, right?"

"No, no." Chu Zhenxuan propped himself up, his eyes a little moist, and he was speechless for a moment.

"Don't worry, just tell me. I can accept it." Xia Xue said calmly. She has lived a lifetime, and she has been feeling bad recently. She often has some weird feelings, so even if Chu Zhenxuan didn't say it, she would not feel good.

"No, no." Chu Zhenxuan shook his head, his eyes full of tenderness, "Congratulations, ma'am, you're going to be a mother." After saying that, Chu Zhenxuan hugged Xia Xue again and buried his head in Xia Xue's neck.

Xia Xue:......

No wonder she had those strange feelings, it turned out that everything in her dream was real.

[Bibi: If you have concerns about this world, you have violated the rules.]

The words are still in my ears.

But she also really wanted to have a child, a child with Chu Zhenxuan.

Two lines of tears flowed down her cheeks, but Chu Zhenxuan still held her in his arms. She felt a little wetness on her neck.

Even Chu Zhenxuan, a man with deep emotions, has this side to him.

After an unknown amount of time, Prince Li sent someone to ask whether he wanted to have dinner.

Xia Xue shook her head firmly. From now on, she would go home, back to the Prime Minister's Mansion, back to the place that belonged to her and Chu Zhenxuan. She would cherish every day, because this broken system might force her to leave one day.

Chu Zhenxuan agreed, and went to say goodbye to Prince Li and Seventh Aunt. The people who had just experienced Concubine Zhu's disturbance had serious expressions. Chu Zhenxuan did not ask much, but called Prince Li aside. On the one hand, he told him that he was going to leave, and on the other hand, they came for Qingping. If Seventh Aunt lived well, the Emperor would not ask too much about some small matters. The implication was that they should not think about the things that were counted today, treat Seventh Aunt well, and they would not report today's events to the Emperor.

Prince Li was a smart man. After hearing this, he repeatedly assured Chu Zhenxuan that he would promote the Seventh Aunt's status and that she would be the most honorable person in the mansion besides the princess. Chu Zhenxuan felt relieved after hearing this. Before leaving, Xia Xue gave the jade pendant that Qingping had given her to the Seventh Aunt.

The Seventh Aunt thanked her repeatedly and almost gave Xia Xue a big gift. Xia Xue patted her hands and said, "Becoming stronger yourself is the best reward for me."

Looking at the backs of Chu Zhenxuan and Xia Xue, Seventh Aunt prayed silently in her heart, hoping that God would bless this kind couple.

On the way back to the Prime Minister's Mansion, Xia Xue felt a little tired and leaned in Chu Zhenxuan's arms with her eyes closed.

Chu Zhenxuan had been immersed in the joy of knowing that Xia Xue was pregnant. He didn't notice anything at first, but now he vaguely felt that Xia Xue didn't seem particularly happy?

Chu Zhenxuan tightened his grip on Xia Xue and kissed her lightly on the forehead.

Xia Xue, who was somewhat uneasy, suddenly opened her eyes and met Chu Zhenxuan's deep eyes.

Xia Xue punched him in the chest. "It's disgusting. Looking at me like that."

Chu Zhenxuan raised the corner of his mouth, "I haven't seen Madam like this for a long time."

"What?" Xia Xue asked.

Chu Zhenxuan thought for a while, then held Xia Xue's hand tightly, "Madam, do you still not want a child? If so, then..."

Xia Xue raised her hand and covered Chu Zhenxuan's lips, "No one is looking forward to our child more than me."

Chu Zhenxuan's eyes flashed with surprise, but then he thought of Xia Xue who was worried after hearing the news, "But you..."

"I just got poisoned so badly that my body hasn't fully recovered yet. I'm pregnant now, so it's inevitable that I have a lot of worries." Xia Xueyuan said.

Chu Zhenxuan nodded, feeling somewhat puzzled in his heart. If only he could hear her inner voice at this moment, he would then know his true thoughts.

Although he was very much looking forward to having a child with Xia Xue, if Xia Xue had any unspeakable secrets or didn't want one now, he would respect her. But why couldn't he hear Xia Xue's voice recently?

Originally, Xia Xue didn't know that Chu Zhenxuan could hear her thoughts, but ever since she became pregnant, no one else could hear her thoughts. Of course, Xia Xue didn't know about this, and Chu Zhenxuan didn't know either.

If Chu Zhenxuan could have paid the money in advance, he would never have accepted the price Xia Xue paid for having a child. Of course, this is a story for later.

Afterwards, Xia Xue went into Chu Zhenxuan's arms again and began to close her eyes. She had to think about this matter carefully, and she also wanted to ask Bibi.

After returning home, Chu Zhenxuan asked the kitchen to stew some milk bird's nest for Xia Xue. After eating, Xia Xue fell asleep. The secret guard came to find Chu Zhenxuan, as if something happened, so Chu Zhenxuan went out for a while.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Xia Xue quickly called out Bibi.

【Xia Xue: Bibi, come out to me. 】

Bibi looked sleepy.

【Bibi: Master, it’s already very late.】

【Xia Xue: Do you still differentiate between day and night? 】

[Bibi: Of course. Even though it’s a system, it has feelings too.]

[Xia Xue: Can emotions make such a disgusting rule? ]

【Bibi: ......】

The master seems a little angry?

【Xia Xue: When did you know I was pregnant? 】

【Bibi: When I was in the South.】

【Xia Xue: What? 】

Before Xia Xue could ask more, Chu Zhenxuan came back.

Xia Xue:!!!

How come it's so fast?
