Chapter 657 I'm in love with that girl

Yu Chongen finally hardened his heart: "Shuangyan, I don't want to hurt you. But this is the best choice for us right now... If you still want to be with me, then abort the child. If you don't want to be with me, I respect your choice. But the child in your belly..."

Yu Chongen hesitated, "For the sake of the child's future, I don't suggest that you keep him."

Wei Shuangyan simply couldn't believe her ears!

She rushed forward and slapped Yu Chongen hard: "I see through you!"

Wei Shuangyan covered her face in despair and ran out.

Wei Zihang anxiously called out "Second Sister" and hurriedly chased after her.

Although Princess Jiping achieved her goal, her face was still full of hatred and disgust towards Chong'en.

She cursed angrily, "Scum!"

He then hurriedly signaled the guards he brought with him to catch up with Wei Shuangyan.

Only then did he leave in anger.

Yu Chongen sat in the chair dejectedly, wiping his face randomly.

Zhuzhu is right, he has already made a mistake and he can't make any more mistakes.

It's time to cut losses.

This way, it's good for everyone...

Yu Chongen had just been hit in the face by two ruthless punches from Wei Zihang, and it was burning with pain.

But he felt that the pain on his face was nothing compared to the pain in his heart.

Yu Chongen slid down from his chair, covered his chest, and curled up on the ground, feeling extremely painful.

After her pregnancy was confirmed, Mu Rujun resumed her habit of visiting the palace once every two weeks to pay her respects to Empress Nie.

Because she was confirmed to be pregnant with twins, Mu Rujun's belly was much bigger than before, but Mu Rujun was in good health and was still able to walk briskly even with a big belly.

Queen Nie valued Mu Rujun's baby very much. Even though she was recuperating from poisoning, Queen Nie still cared about Mu Rujun's baby. When Queen Nie's body had almost recovered, every time Mu Rujun came, Queen Nie would worry about everything inside and outside, and asked Mu Rujun to bring back a lot of things.

Mu Rujun even joked that she was not here to pay respects to her mother, but to purchase goods.

This time when Mu Rujun came to pay her respects, it happened that Nie Yuke was sitting below Queen Nie. She smiled and talked to Queen Nie about her eldest sister-in-law's newly born little daughter, Shu Jie'er.

"When Shujie'er is a hundred days old, I will bring her to your aunt to see. My mother said that she had never seen such a beautiful baby... Shujie'er has black hair and a fair face. My mother loves her so much that she holds her in her arms all day long and refuses to let go." Nie Yuke said softly to Queen Nie, "Grandmother also said that Shujie'er looks a lot like your aunt when she was a child!"

These words brought back some childhood memories for Queen Nie.

Her eyes were soft and she smiled: "Since mother said so, then it must be true. I gave birth to three boys, and I don't know what a girl like me would look like."

Mu Rujun happened to come in at this moment, and Nie Yuke said with a smile: "If the Crown Princess's cousin-in-law gives birth to a little princess, she can grow up with Shu Jie'er. Who knows, the two sisters may both look like their aunt."

Seeing that Mu Rujun didn't smile, Nie Yuke paused and apologized, "Look at me, my cousin's wife must have given birth to two little grandchildren."

Before Mu Rujun could say anything, Nie Yuke started to apologize to Queen Nie again: "Aunt, it was all Ake's fault. I was thinking about Shu Jie'er just now and said the wrong thing. My cousin's wife is pregnant. If she gets hurt because of my outspokenness, then it is really Ake's fault."

Queen Nie smiled and said, "You don't have to care so much. Rujun is not that kind of person."

Mu Rujun said calmly: "My cousin said so much before I even said anything. You are really thinking too much."

Nie Yuke forced a smile: "I'm glad my cousin's wife doesn't blame me."

Queen Nie waved for Mu Rujun to come forward: "Come, Rujun."

Mu Rujun walked forward with a smile. Queen Nie took Mu Rujun's hand and looked at her complexion carefully. She exclaimed: "You look better and better as the month goes by."

In the past, Mu Rujun was a heroic and beautiful woman. She was beautiful, but just standing there, she always reminded people of a sword hidden in its sheath.

Now that Mu Rujun is pregnant, her temperament has become gentler and her skin has become more moisturized, as if a soft mist is lingering on the sword.

Mu Rujun smiled and touched her belly: "Your Highness and I both think that these two children are very well-behaved."

Queen Nie nodded repeatedly.

After chatting with Queen Nie for a few sentences, Mu Rujun glanced at Nie Yuke calmly and said, "It would be good if these two children were both princesses. Flowers bloom first and fruits come later. No matter what, they are the children of His Highness and I, and we love them very much. Cousin, don't be nervous."

Nie Yuke smiled softly: "My cousin's wife is right, it is A Ke who is narrow-minded. It's just that my cousin's wife looked unhappy just now, so I thought too much."

Mu Rujun sneered.

She noticed that Nie Yuke looked unhappy just now, and it was not because of what Nie Yuke said.

But she really didn't like Nie Yuke very much.

Previously, the bow that Nie Luming was going to present was smeared with the forbidden drug Chunfeng Yulu from the previous dynasty. Nie Luming and Xingxing almost fell for it - it can even be said that if Xingxing had not been alert, I am afraid that it would have been a disaster.

It was hard to tell whether the spring breeze and jade dew were directed at Xingxing and Nie Luming, or at the Crown Princess.

Later, the prince happened to be inspecting Jiangnan on behalf of the emperor. The Nie family was the maternal family of Queen Nie and the prince. Queen Nie had just been poisoned a few days ago, so she had to rest for a while and could not be stimulated again.

Mu Rujun didn't want to make a fuss, so she could only let someone investigate it privately.

There were no clues at first, but there was a new development recently - a flower farmer in a remote courtyard of the Nie Mansion was found, and his ancestor was the adopted son of a eunuch in the imperial palace.

However, the day before the investigation, the flower farmer got drunk and fought with someone outside and was hacked to death.

The clue seemed to be broken again.

The man who later helped Mu Rujun to investigate secretly seemed to be hesitant to speak.

He only said that he had seen it once, and that a maid had brought food to the flower farmer.

That maid was from Nie Yuke's courtyard...

But no one can say that this matter is definitely related to Nie Yuke.

However, after Mu Rujun learned about this, she naturally became more scrutinetic towards Nie Yuke.

However, there was no evidence at this time, and it was not the time to break off relations with Nie Yuke. After all, Nie Yuke was still very much liked by Queen Nie.

For the sake of Queen Nie, Mu Rujun would not do anything to Nie Yuke.

Just wait for more clues and wait until Crown Prince Wei Shiqing comes back, then we'll talk about it.

Mu Rujun collected her thoughts and ignored Nie Yuke. She just smiled and mentioned Xingxing to Queen Nie: "...Have you seen Xingxing in the past few days, mother?"

Queen Nie's smile deepened.

Before Wei Shiqing left Beijing, he just received a letter from Wei Shiyan.

In the letter, Wei Shiyan mentioned in a pretentious way that he had recently received a sachet made by Xingxing, and even deliberately mentioned that the sachet was filled with herbs prepared by Xingxing herself: "…it has a very good insect repellent effect. Smelling it every day makes me feel refreshed."

The meaning of showing off is literally jumping onto paper.

But Wei Shiqing was so angry that he laughed.

But after getting over the anger, I felt deeply relieved.

His ill-fated second brother, although fate had been harsh on him, he still had a warm corner to iron out his silence.

After reading the family letter, Empress Nie became even more grateful to Xing Xing.

Emperor Jiazheng was a little worried. Because Xingxing had saved the empress, she had already been conferred the title of princess. What reward should she be given next?

Emperor Jiazheng even told Empress Nie in private that when Xingxing married their Ah Yan in the future, he would directly confer a title on their child.

Empress Nie rolled her eyes at Emperor Jiazheng and said, "Ayan hasn't come back yet, Xingxing is still young, and you dare to draw this cake."

However, ever since Empress Nie blocked a sword for Emperor Jiazheng, Emperor Jiazheng, who had always been very kind to Empress Nie, became even more obedient to her.

Although Empress Nie laughed at him and said it was a fantasy, Emperor Jiazheng was not annoyed at all. He took Empress Nie's hand and asked her what she thought.

Queen Nie only said four words at the time:

“Let it be.”

When Mu Rujun mentioned Xingxing, Empress Nie smiled: "...I was planning to summon Xingxing to the palace in two days. What's wrong?"

Mu Rujun smiled and said, "Nothing. I just got some very good silver fox furs a few days ago, which are just right for a girl of her age to make a cloak. I thought that when the queen summons Xingxing to the palace, I will come over to join in the fun, and I will just give the silver fox furs to Xingxing."

Queen Nie smiled and said, "It happens that Ayu's birthday is coming up in a few days. Call Xingxing over then."

"Yes." Mu Rujun replied with a smile.

Nie Yuke, who had been left out for a long time, felt resentful when he heard Wei Shiyu's name.

Fortunately, Queen Nie also remembered Nie Yuke and asked her with a smile: "Ake, are you free then? Come over and liven things up."

Nie Yuke smiled shyly and lowered her head in agreement.

Queen Nie couldn't help but look at Nie Yuke a little more.

When Mu Rujun came out of Zhaoyang Palace, Nie Yuke also quickly followed and called out "Cousin-in-law".

Mu Rujun paused and looked back at Nie Yuke.

Nie Yuke showed a proper shyness: "…The Third Prince often goes to the East Palace. A Ke wants to ask my cousin's wife if she knows what the Third Prince likes these days? A Ke can prepare a birthday present for him."

Mu Rujun looked at Nie Yuke for a while with a hint of amusement in his eyes, and then said: "...Ayu has always been playful. He likes anything interesting and fun."

Nie Yuke smiled and said, "Thank you for your advice, cousin."

Mu Rujun smiled slightly, said nothing more, got into the sedan and left.

Nie Yuke walked slowly out of the palace along the path in the Yu Garden, and happened to meet the Fourth Prince and the Fifth Prince who were returning from school.

The third prince, the fourth prince, and the fifth prince are all very close in age, but because the third prince was born to the Empress Dowager, they are more often together.

"Miss Nie," the fifth prince asked with a smile, "Did you just come out of your mother's palace?"

Nie Yuke returned the gift and exchanged a few casual pleasantries.

However, after separating from the two princes, the faint smile on Nie Yuke's face immediately disappeared, replaced by a hint of disdain.

The Fourth Prince and the Fifth Prince have their eyes glued to her. Do they really think she can't see that the Fourth Prince and the Fifth Prince are planning to take over the Nie family?

But she, Nie Yuke, would marry the third prince even if she couldn't marry the crown prince. How could these illegitimate princes even dream of that!

Nie Yuke walked away with a look of disdain on his face.

She didn't know that at this moment, the Fourth Prince and the Fifth Prince had already walked to a high pavilion, just in time to see Nie Yuke's face full of disdain.

The Fourth Prince and the Fifth Prince were silent.

"Fourth brother, she really doesn't take us two brothers seriously." The fifth prince even smiled when he said this.

The fourth prince shook his head and said nothing.

The fifth prince sighed and asked, "Has the fourth brother ever met Princess Fusui?"

The fourth prince asked, "Is it the little girl that has been favored by my father and mother recently? ... Didn't we meet once last time?"

The fifth prince suddenly grinned: "...Fourth brother, I like that little girl. I plan to get in touch with her more. If possible, I will ask for permission from mother."

The Fourth Prince patted the Fifth Prince on the shoulder and said, "Fifth brother, now that you have said so, how can an elder brother compete with you? ... But, don't blame Fourth Prince for not reminding you. You saw it last time. Third Prince was quite protective of Princess Fusui."

The fifth prince laughed and said, "So, fourth brother, just don't tell third brother."

The two smiled at each other, with calculations in their eyes.

At this time, Xingxing was leading the maids in the yard to sweep the fallen snow off the plum blossoms.

"I'll go back and bury myself under the plum tree with the plum blossoms," Xing Xing said with a smile, "next spring I'll ask my aunt to teach me how to make ice brew."

Zhaoying smiled and said, "When Master Bang and Master Mian ask you for help, there will be nothing left."

"So we have to bury more." Xingxing thought of the increasing number of younger brothers in the family, each one more naughty than the other, and felt a headache.

As they were talking and laughing, someone came in hurriedly to report that the Fourth Young Master had collapsed at the gate of the mansion, covered in blood, and had now been carried into the Fourth Young Master's yard.

Xingxing was startled and told Zhaoying to get the medicine box. She then held up her skirt and ran quickly to Guiger's yard.

When Xingxing passed by, Bai Xiaofeng also hurried over, his face was extremely pale, and when he saw Xingxing, he couldn't help cursing: "This stinky boy, he has been away from home all day, and this time he came back with wounds all over his body..."

He kept cursing until he was choked with sobs and could no longer speak.

She wiped her tears and quickly followed Xingxing into the house.

The whole house was filled with the smell of blood.

Bai Xiaofeng's legs went weak and she almost fell down.

The servant was carefully helping Gui Ge'er take off his bloodstained clothes.

Xing Xing took a look and saw that the wound on Guiger's chest was still oozing blood, and it looked very serious.

Her heart skipped a beat and she took her pulse, which was so weak that it was almost gone.

Xing Xing hurriedly took out a life-saving pill from the sachet she carried with her and stuffed it into Gui Ge'er's mouth.

This was the first time Bai Xiaofeng saw Xing Xing so flustered. She was so scared that her face turned pale and her mind went blank: "...Gui Ge'er, what happened to Gui Ge'er?"

Xing Xing couldn't hold back her tears. She wiped them away and said, "...Fourth brother, Fourth brother is seriously injured. I, I'm not sure either."

When Bai Xiaofeng saw this, his legs went limp and he fell to the ground.
