034

It was the first time in my life that I was scolded and beaten.

Although she used less force and her arm didn't hurt, she was definitely hit.

Lu Jingzhuo was stunned for a moment and grabbed Chu Yin's hand.

"Ayin," he asked, "are you awake?"

He didn't believe that his dignified Crown Princess would do such a thing for no reason.

The man's voice was low and a little cool, like late autumn raindrops falling in your ears.

Chu Yin's eyes widened, and she gradually took in the furnishings in the room.

"Did you have a nightmare?" He stared at her red eyes in the moonlight coming in from the window, "You just cried."

It turned out to be a dream.

Yes, of course I was dreaming!

How could Lu Jingzhuo take a concubine or even abandon her just because she couldn't get pregnant?

How could she have such a ridiculous dream? Regardless of whether Lu Jingzhuo liked her or not, even if he didn't like her, given his personality, he wouldn't abandon her at will.

Besides, he wouldn't dislike it.

So why...

Was it because she saw his disappointment at that moment that she began to care about the matter of "having a child"?

Chu Yin lowered her eyes: "I had a nightmare. I just offended Your Highness. Please forgive me."

There were still traces of tears on that little face, and I felt pity for her.

Of course Lu Jingzhuo didn't blame her, he was just curious about what kind of dream would make Chu Yin scold and beat him.

"What did I do to you in your dream?" He still held her, his slender fingers wrapped around her wrist.

Chu Yin was too embarrassed to say that.

It was shameful for a princess to dream of her husband taking a concubine and cry about it.

To be honest, if she didn't know that Lu Jingzhuo would like her, she wouldn't care how many concubines he took, dozens or hundreds, it was up to him as long as she could secure her position as the principal wife. The reason she cared now was that she had obtained it and was afraid of losing it.

But this was also in a dream.

Now looking at the man in front of her, she knew that he would never let her down.

After waiting for a while, there was only silence.

Lu Jingzhuo raised his eyebrows slightly: "Why, you can't tell me?"

"No, it's just that this dream is so messed up that I don't know where to start. I don't even remember it very well." She softened her voice and pulled his sleeve with her other hand. "Your Highness, it's late. Can you rest first?"

It seems like she's acting coquettishly, but not really. Maybe it's just a request to show weakness.

Lu Jingzhuo said calmly: "You hit me, but you don't tell me why?"

There's always something that doesn't make sense.

Chu Yin bit her lip.

It seems that he still cares about being beaten.

It was true that she shouldn't have done that, but she was not yet conscious at the time and was really angry at that face.

Another silence.

Her repeated avoidance made Lu Jingzhuo even more curious.

It's just a dream, why don't you tell him?

"I'll let you sleep after that."

But Chu Yin just didn't want to say it. Her eyelashes trembled, and she suddenly covered her lower abdomen and whispered: "Your Highness, I feel very uncomfortable and it hurts a little..."

I almost forgot she was having her period.

Lu Jingzhuo let go of his hand and said, "Do you want to ask Court Judge Liu to judge this case?"

"No, it's too late. I should feel better after a while of sleep," Chu Yin looked at him with wet eyes, "Your Highness, can I sleep now?"

He suddenly felt that Chu Yin was lying to him.

The weakness she displayed seemed like a means of action.

But he didn't ask any further questions in the end.

Chu Yin turned sideways and covered herself with the brocade quilt.

The figure rises and falls like a mountain.

Lu Jingzhuo stared at her, and the image of her crying appeared in his mind.

That was when they were having sex, he used a little force, and after a while she couldn't help crying.

Could it be that he was dreaming about her...

Is Chu Yin unwilling to talk about it because she had such a dream?

He didn't know, but he felt a little hot for some reason.

After a while of torment, Chu Yin actually felt a little pain in her lower abdomen. She didn't know if she was angry about the dream or because of his questioning just now. She snorted softly.

"Does it still hurt?" he asked.

"Um."

"Please ask Court Judge Liu to judge..."

Chu Yin said: "No, it's not that serious, and I really don't want to alarm others at this moment."

It was the middle of the night.

Lu Jingzhuo was silent for a while, then suddenly reached out and put his arms around her waist, holding her in his arms.

Her heart was beating fast and she was extremely surprised.

"Your Highness, why ..."

"If you don't want, I can not hug you."

Why wouldn't she want it when it came to her? Chu Yin hurriedly said, "I want to hug you!"

The voice was urgent and coquettish, causing Lu Jingzhuo's mouth to rise slightly.

The warm chest warmed her entire back, and the pain subsided. Chu Yin remembered that time when she had her period, he also hugged her. He looked serious and cold, but he was actually willing to do something for her that he would not normally do.

Of course, that was when she showed signs of discomfort.

If such a person really likes her, how will they love each other?

Chu Yin couldn't imagine it.

She turned around and buried her face in his arms, and her lower abdomen felt more warmth.

She gradually fell asleep in his arms.

But he couldn't sleep.

I don’t know why, but I stayed awake until dawn.

When I got up, I was afraid of waking her up, so I walked very lightly, and I have never been so careful before.

Lu Jingzhuo got dressed, washed his face with cold water, had breakfast and went to Chunhui Pavilion.

When they arrived at the door, he ordered Dong Ling to invite Liu Yuanpan to the East Palace to show Chu Yin, and specifically asked him to come to Chunhui Pavilion after the show.

Dong Ling responded.

When Chu Yin got up, she heard Lian Xu say that Judge Liu had been waiting for a long time.

Needless to say, it must have been Lu Jingzhuo who invited him.

After she finished washing up, she took the pulse of Dr. Liu first.

Judge Liu was surprised and said, "The Crown Princess is in much better health now than before."

Chu Yin was very happy: "Really? Can you see it?"

Her goal of living longer is now within reach.

"I heard that you have been practicing martial arts. If you have such perseverance, your body will reward you." Judge Liu paused, "But what is wrong with you today? I really can't figure it out."

"…I don't feel any discomfort, but I had some pain in my lower abdomen last night, but it's gone now."

Judge Liu smiled and said, "That's because His Royal Highness the Crown Prince cares about you. Since you have nothing to do, I will take my leave."

He came out of the East Palace and went straight to Chunhui Pavilion.

Lu Jingzhuo was attending a lecture and just saw him during the break.

"How is the Crown Princess?"

"Your Highness, the Crown Princess's symptoms of weakness have improved significantly."

It seems her efforts have paid off.

Lu Jingzhuo hesitated for a moment and said, "Since there is improvement, why can't you have a child?"

Not to mention the royal family, ordinary families all value having many children and good fortune. Judge Liu naturally understood this. He considered his words and said, "This depends on luck, not just good health... In addition, the time of sex and the day of the week also have an impact."

Is that so?

Lu Jingzhuo was quite surprised.

When he and Chu Yin were in Qingzhou, they just let things take their own course and didn't pay much attention to anything, but they soon had a pair of twins, a dragon and a phoenix.

No matter how hard he tried this time, Chu Yin couldn't get pregnant.

It seems that some measures must be taken.

He asked Judge Liu for details.

However, it is said that after Princess Baocheng was persuaded by her husband, she went to the palace on a sunny morning to ask for an audience with Emperor Jianxing.

Emperor Jianxing would never refuse this sister.

"Brother, I just heard that you found a capable person who can prevent the locust plague..."

Before he finished, Emperor Jianxing burst into laughter and said, "Shanhui, you are also forgetful. On the way back to Wenshu Temple, I mentioned that Jingzhuo should be the inspector. You were sitting next to me. Didn't you hear me?"

"..." Princess Baocheng was dumbfounded. "How could this happen? I must have fainted from the heat, and I was just fanning myself."

After all, she is a woman, and perhaps she doesn't care about state affairs.

Emperor Jianxing asked, "Since you didn't hear anything, why did you suddenly mention him?"

"I know what's on your mind, brother, and I want to share your worries! Now that you've found a capable person, the locust plague will be reduced by half. Brother, if you go up to the heights and pray for blessings on Double Ninth Festival, there will surely be a good harvest next year!"

"Climbing?"

"Yes, you should also know about Emperor Longyuan praying for blessings and eliminating disasters. This Tuer Mountain is a blessed place. If you go there, not only can you bring all the officials to have fun, but the people will also be grateful to you when they know about it. Don't you think so, brother?"

The locust plague must be prevented and controlled, he cannot let this fail.

Emperor Jianxing looked at his sister and said, "Shanhui, your words really appeal to me. Okay, I will go to Tuer Mountain to climb on Double Ninth Festival."

Princess Baocheng smiled and said, "Brother, I have something to say in advance. I have to bring my husband, Lin'er, Min'er, and Yuyuan with you."

"Your cousin is a little girl, I'm afraid it's not appropriate." He only planned to take his three sons with him to have fun with all the officials. It would not be appropriate for his daughter-in-law to follow them, not to mention that Jiang Yuyuan had not yet married.

"Please select some young and handsome men that day. I will let Yuyuan take a look. I will let her dress up as a man so that others will not notice."

"Didn't you say you don't care? Why are you still worrying about her life?"

"Alas, this is the last time!" Princess Baocheng swore, "If she still doesn't like me, I will really not care about her anymore. I will let her become an old maid and serve me filially."

"...Okay." Emperor Jianxing was speechless.

When Princess Baocheng saw that her brother agreed, she did not disturb him from reviewing the memorials and left happily.

The Double Ninth Festival is not far away, so preparations must be made early. Emperor Jianxing ordered He Zhong: "Let Qin Xiao go to Tuer Mountain in advance to clear the road and make arrangements."

He Zhong accepted the order.

As his health improved, Chu Yin practiced martial arts and riding skills even harder, without wasting a single day.

Lian Xuan and Ren Dong were both frightened.

"You really don't want to rest for two days?"

"Persistence is the key to success," Chu Yin thought. She originally wanted to live to 50, but now she wants to live to 70. She wants to have children and grandchildren all over the house. How can she be lazy? She wants to see her grandchildren, great-grandchildren, and great-great-granddaughters.

Lian Xuan, Honeysuckle: "..."

At this time, Lu Jingzhuo returned from Chunhui Pavilion.

Seeing that she had her hair in a simple bun, he knew that Chu Yin was going to practice horse riding again in the afternoon.

But if we calculate the time, today is what Judge Liu said is the easiest day to get pregnant.

After Lu Jingzhuo washed his hands, he said to Chu Yin, "Don't go to the racecourse this afternoon."

Chu Yin was stunned: "Why?"

Of course I was worried that she would be too tired and couldn't stand it at night.

But he didn't say it directly, just said: "You don't have to go every day, haste makes waste."

Chu Yin was surprised: "Even if it's not for practicing riding, it's good for the body."

Riding a horse also exercises your physical strength.

"Well," Lu Jingzhuo said, apparently she wouldn't understand unless he explained it clearly, "I asked Judge Liu about the child. Today is more appropriate."

Chu Yin: “…”

Chu Yin: He’s gone crazy.

Lu Jingzhuo: ???
