058

Lu Jingzhuo reached out and picked her up, then turned around and Chu Yin lay on top of him.

They both have slender bodies, but compared to him, Chu Yin looks like a willow branch.

Lu Jingzhuo squeezed her waist and said, "You've been practicing martial arts and horse riding for so long, but it's all in vain."

She did it to keep fit, not to do this...

Besides, she couldn't match his physical strength even if she trained for a few more years. Chu Yin pouted and said, "I'm useless, so can Your Highness let me go?" She was really afraid that she wouldn't be able to get out of bed tomorrow.

This is not a negotiation, this is direct surrender.

A hint of smile flashed across Lu Jingzhuo's eyes: "You still have some self-awareness."

She has always been very self-aware, otherwise why would she exercise? Chu Yin didn't know why he said that.

"Then Your Highness, please put me down. Dinner will be served soon."

He still didn't let go.

My sweet and soft wife was in my arms. I wanted to let her go mentally, but my body couldn't.

"We can have dinner later."

Chu Yin's expression changed slightly: "I've already begged for mercy..."

"Then beg me later."

The next day, Chu Yin's voice was a little hoarse.

The reason is indescribable.

Lu Zhen was more careful than his brother. When he came to pay his respects in the morning, he quickly noticed that something was wrong with his mother: "Why did your voice change?" He put his two little hands around her neck and asked, "Is mom sick?"

Qinnan glanced at Chu Yin and didn't dare to help explain.

The child is four years old. It's easy to lie, but it's also difficult to lie. If he says he's sick, she'll ask if he's taking medicine. Chu Yin said, "It's not an illness. I just talk too much and my throat is tired. I need to rest."

"Ah, the throat can also be tired?" Lu Zhen asked curiously.

"Of course, any part of the human body will get tired if used too much, like the eyes. If you keep staring at something without taking a break, your eyes will get hurt and you won't be able to see clearly."

"Oh, so that's how it is," Lu Zhen nodded, "Then mother, take a rest, we won't talk about it anymore."

Chu Yin rubbed her head and said, "So good."

But Lu Zhen turned around and asked her father in the study for help: "Dad, Mom's throat is tired, what should I do!"

Lu Jingzhuo knew best how she got so tired.

His wife is not only frail, but also has a weak voice.

Fortunately, he had been restrained before, otherwise Chu Yin would have been squeezed dry long ago.

I don't know why she would have the idea of ​​keeping a lover?

"Father will make her get well soon," he comforted his daughter.

Lu Zhen nodded: "Okay."

After his daughter left, Lu Jingzhuo immediately invited Judge Liu to take over.

In fact, he had suggested calling the imperial physician in the morning, but Chu Yin refused, saying that she was only a little mute and would recover on her own after two days of rest. He saw that she was shy and didn't want the imperial physician to know how she became mute.

He didn't force it at the time, but now his daughter is worried, so he still asks her.

However, he did not let Liu Yuanpan go to see Chu Yin, firstly because it was not serious, and secondly because he was afraid that she would be shy. He only asked Dong Ling to ask Liu Yuanpan what to do if his voice became hoarse due to excessive use, and whether he had to take her pulse.

Court Judge Liu thought it was Lu Jingzhuo, and after understanding the situation, he quickly prescribed medicine.

Rendong spotted Liu Yuanpan leaving at the door and hurriedly reported it to Chu Yin.

Please go to the study room, that must be to feel Lu Jingzhuo's pulse, is he not feeling well? Chu Yin couldn't help but worry, in her impression, Lu Jingzhuo has never been sick in the past few years.

He has always been in good health.

Chu Yin hurried to the study.

When Lu Jingzhuo saw her, he put down the book in his hand.

"Your Highness, what's wrong with you?"

Her voice used to be clear and sweet, but now it was slightly hoarse, which actually had a different kind of charm. However, she actually thought that he invited Liu Yuanpan for her, which made Lu Jingzhuo laugh.

"Come here," he said.

Chu Yin walked over.

He easily lifted her onto his lap.

Chu Yin was used to it and didn't move, just waiting for his answer.

"No," he said.

"That is..."

He tapped her nose: "You."

Didn’t you say you didn’t want to invite him? Chu Yin bit her lip and said, “How did you tell him that?”

"To be honest," he lowered his head, breathing on her neck, "you were hoarse at night."

Even if he had heard Court Judge Liu talk about some postures, he couldn't tell Court Judge Liu everything, right?

Chu Yin wanted to bite him, and glared at Lu Jingzhuo and said, "You, you..." She was so angry that she didn't know what to say.

Her beautiful eyes are round, like sparkling beads.

He blocked her lips: "Stop talking."

He failed to scold someone and was kissed instead.

Chu Yin bit the tip of his tongue.

Of course she didn't bite it through. She bit his lip in a hurry that time. Even if she was angry now, she wouldn't bite her husband's mouth through. She just wanted to hurt him a little so that he wouldn't speak so directly next time.

Lu Jingzhuo paused, and then kissed even harder.

There was a knock on the door, and Dong Ling said, "The Imperial Hospital has sent medicine."

Lu Jingzhuo raised his head: "Go get it."

Not long after, Dong Ling came in with a white-glazed porcelain medicine bottle.

It is the size of a palm, in a delicate gourd shape, with a wooden cork in the bottle mouth.

"It is said that you should take one pill with each meal three times a day, and hold it in your mouth."

Lu Jingzhuo took out a handkerchief and poured out a pill from the bottle.

It is half the size of a fingernail, brown in color, and has a bitter smell.

"Eat it," he said.

Chu Yin shook her head: "I don't want to eat."

It was obvious that she was in a bad mood, but Lu Jingzhuo did not lose his patience: "I'll feed you, open your mouth."

Actually seduced her.

Chu Yin pursed her lips, her eyes slightly turning, weighing the options.

He added: "I didn't tell Court Judge Liu who it was, so Dong Ling asked and he thought it was me."

Chu Yin immediately smiled and opened her mouth.

He placed the pill between her lips.

She tasted it and glanced at him: "Your Highness is still a liar."

I just want to see her embarrassed look.

Lu Jingzhuo asked, "What does it taste like?"

"Slightly sweet and refreshing."

He watched her suck it for a while, then went over and kissed her.

Chu Yin was stunned: "There are still some left..."

He said nothing, but took the opportunity to put it into her mouth and taste the medicine with her.

The sweet taste mixed with the smell of medicine melted on the tips of their tongues. Chu Yin's face gradually turned red, and she became a little intoxicated. She couldn't help but wrap her arms around his waist.

After the Lantern Festival, it snowed again, like willow catkins, floating for a while and then stopping, leaving almost no trace.

Tang Feiyan stood at the window and looked out, wanting to go out but holding herself back.

The child was her long-awaited birth, and she would not allow herself to make any mistakes, such as falling down... She waved to the two maids to support her on both sides, and then she slowly walked to the couch and sat down.

There is a thick cushion under the buttocks, which is very comfortable, and there is also a pillow behind the back.

She turned sideways and took a piece of Golden Silk Mountain medicinal cake from the table and ate it.

Lu Jingchen walked in and glanced at her round face: "Which one is it today?"

"The third one, I'm counting it!" Tang Feiyan said, "Since the imperial physician also said that it's better to be thinner, I will naturally not eat more... Besides, this mountain medicine cake won't make you fat, it's not a meat cake."

After being reminded by Chu Yin that day, Lu Jingchen really took it seriously and went to consult the imperial physician. Tang Feiyan learned that it was not good for the child, so she immediately controlled her appetite, and her weight stopped increasing rapidly.

"Just pay attention," Lu Jingchen sat down beside her and reached out to touch his wife's belly. "No matter what, you've worked hard. When you give birth to the baby safely, I'll give you whatever you want."

Tang Feiyan thought to herself, what a boast! She wanted the position of Crown Princess, could he give it to her?

But now she knew their situation and how difficult it was for Lu Jingchen, so she could only endure this period of time.

If I give birth to a son and please my father-in-law, I may have another chance in the future.

Even though it's slim, it's still hope, and that's how people survive.

"How is aunt's matter going?" Tang Feiyan took his arm and asked, "Did she ask the emperor to arrange a marriage for her?"

"Aunt can't keep it to herself, she must have mentioned it during the New Year's greetings. Now there is no news, I'm afraid father doesn't want to..." Lu Jingchen touched his nose, "Duke Song is really arrogant, even more arrogant than aunt."

Tang Feiyan chuckled, feeling a bit saccharine: "Aunt is so noble, but she still got rejected. Duke Song is really bold. He dared to reject anyone. This time, no matter how much Aunt likes him, there is nothing she can do. She can only sigh in despair!"

Princess Baocheng suddenly became cold to them, and his wife was also very angry, so Lu Jingchen could understand her thoughts: "You can just talk about it at home, you can't..."

"I will never go out until I give birth to the baby. What are you afraid of?" Tang Feiyan snorted, "If you scold me again, I will hold the baby back!"

He knew it was impossible, but his pregnant wife was the boss, so Lu Jingchen quickly shut his mouth.

In early February, the grass in the yard was green and the peach blossoms were in full bloom.

Yu Sizhang was about to leave the palace. After Chu Yin learned horse riding from her for the last time, the two said goodbye reluctantly.

I wonder if Duke Song is still in the capital. If he is, then her original guess may be wrong. Yu Sizhang may have met Duke Song in the capital and then married into the Duke Song's mansion.

This way, things will go more smoothly and you won't have to worry about changes in your mind midway.

Chu Yin got off the car at the gate of the East Palace while thinking.

There was a burst of laughter from inside.

Listening carefully, it sounded like her son Lu Wei's voice, but there seemed to be someone else's voice as well.

The eunuch guarding the gate reported, "Crown Princess, it's the Third Prince who has come. He said he wants to bring origami to the young master."

Chu Yin raised her eyebrows slightly: "You let him in?"

The eunuch hurriedly said, "I dare not. I sent someone to Chunhui Pavilion to ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince for permission before I dared to release His Highness the Third Prince."

He still knows the rules, otherwise he cannot stay. Chu Yin walked in quickly.

When he saw his mother, Lu Wei showed her the horse he had folded out of paper, and said, "Uncle San is so amazing that he can actually fold a big horse! But there is no lion today, so Uncle San said he would fold one for me next time."

This time I changed to white paper, which was very delicate and I could even clearly fold out the horse's head and tail.

Chu Yin smiled slightly: "Third brother, it took you a long time, right?"

"Only a few days."

Chu Yin looked at her son: "Er, did you hear me? Third uncle spent several days, and now you have your father to take you riding a big horse, why bother Third uncle?" She didn't like her son getting close to Lu Jingrui, "Third brother, don't break that lion again."

Lu Jingrui thought she was just concerned about his hand and said with a smile, "It's okay. I'm free anyway, so I'll just kill time."

"You can do something else with your free time. Don't indulge him."

Lu Yu was unhappy: "Mom, I just want a lion, nothing else."

That's hard to say.

She remembered that Lu Jingrui had folded more than just these two for his son, he also folded an elephant, a unicorn, a turtle, and so on...

Chu Yin said sternly, "No more nonsense!"

Lu Wei did not continue, but pursed his lips.

"Sister-in-law, I'll fold a lion for Er'er. I promised him before, and I can't break my promise," Lu Jingrui spoke for his nephew, "Sister-in-law, please don't blame Er'er. We have an agreement."

Hearing this, Lu Wei's lips pouted even more intensely.

Since it was already an agreement, if she continued to criticize her son, it would only make him think that she was wrong as a mother and that he liked the gentle Third Uncle more. Chu Yin pondered, "Well, then, I'll bother Third Brother again."

Lu Wei started to laugh.

After Lu Jingrui said goodbye, he took the initiative to see his uncle out.

Seeing the two of them holding hands, Chu Yin wondered, does my son like origami so much?

So, why not she learn it too? Once she learns it, her son will watch her folding and become closer to her, and will no longer pester Lu Jingrui.

Chu Yin asked Rendong to get a stack of papers and sat by the window to study it carefully.

Seeing that the sun was shining brightly today, Lu Jingzhuo felt that he would not feel cold if he practiced archery in the afternoon, so before returning, he asked Dong Ling to have someone erect the target, and he put the ring on his thumb in the car.

Seeing the eunuchs busy at work, Honeysuckle took out the arm guards, hand guards and rings that she had collected earlier.

"His Highness is going to teach you archery again," she told Chu Yin, "He should be here soon."

Chu Yin's mind was on origami at the moment, so she just nodded.

The orange-red light filled the hall, covering the woman sitting in front of the window with a layer of gauze, with a bright glow floating around.

Lu Jingzhuo stood and watched for a while, then turned his ring and asked Rendong: "Have you really told her?"

If Chu Yin had known this earlier, wouldn't she have already put on the arm guard, hand guard, and ring and been waiting for him?

Honeysuckle was too frightened to speak.

Lu Jingzhuo sneered and walked to Chu Yin's side.

The footsteps were very heavy. Chu Yin raised her head and said with a smile, "Your Highness has arrived? I will shoot arrows with Your Highness in a while."

He looked at the origami on the table. "You've been working on this?"

"Um."

"What for?" He seemed to see his third brother picking flowers and giving them to the two children.

"I want to learn it and give it to my son after I learn it."

"But origami is surprisingly difficult. I spent an entire afternoon trying to fold a small boat." She showed it to Lu Jingzhuo.

In order to appease her son, she could spend half a day learning archery from him, but she was so passive!

Lu Jingzhuo didn't want to look at the boat at all. He said calmly, "If it's hard to fold, don't fold it. Do you really need to do this kind of thing yourself? What does Xiaodou do? Let him learn and fold it!" He ordered Dong Ling, "Go and tell Xiaodou now."

Chu Yin: “…”

Xiaodou shivered.
