Jiang Jingyue collapsed to the ground, her eyes lifeless, as if she had lost all hope of living.
After waiting for a while, she seemed to have thought of something, and her previously dull eyes suddenly lit up.
“Mother, let’s go find Jiang Jingyue. She will definitely help us. If she doesn’t help, I’ll beat her until she does.”
Madam Jiang shook her head, because she knew that it was too late to do anything now.
"It's no use. Jiang Jingyue definitely won't help us. Don't even dream about it."
During this exile journey, the Jiang family adhered to a principle, as instructed by Su Changde.
Eat less, do more, and as long as they don't starve, that's fine. The Jiang family members, who had never done hard labor before, all lost more than ten kilograms in an instant. Everyone was trembling, and this was exactly the result Mo Yuhan wanted.
What happens to them is no longer Jiang Jingyue's concern. Her most important task now is to take good care of the baby in her belly.
These past few days, Jiang Jingyue suddenly discovered that the baby in her belly was moving, which made her extremely happy.
Jiang Jingyue touched her belly and felt it vibrating repeatedly, which she found quite amazing.
"Babies, are you coming out? Are you saying hello to your mother?"
As soon as Jiang Jingyue finished speaking, the baby in her belly started moving faster again.
Jiang Jingyue couldn't help but giggle, her laughter sweet. Mo Yuhan, who had just walked in, felt a little better when he heard Jiang Jingyue laughing like that.
He walked in from outside and looked at Jiang Jingyue, asking her a question.
"Yueyue, what's making you so happy? You're laughing so happily."
Upon seeing Mo Yuhan enter, Jiang Jingyue's eyes lit up, and she immediately waved to him.
"Your Majesty, come here quickly, please look at my belly."
Hearing Jiang Jingyue say that, Mo Yuhan was startled, thinking that something had happened to Jiang Jingyue's stomach, and immediately ran back to Jiang Jingyue's side.
As soon as he arrived at Jiang Jingyue's side, he looked at her with a face full of anxiety.
"What's wrong with Yueyue? Is her stomach upset? I'll have the imperial physician come immediately."
Mo Yuhan turned around abruptly, intending to walk outside, but Jiang Jingyue immediately grabbed him.
"Your Majesty, it's not like that. Don't worry, come and look at my belly. The baby inside me is moving."
As soon as Jiang Jingyue said those words, Mo Yuhan was stunned. He slowly turned around and looked at Jiang Jingyue in disbelief.
"Yueyue, you... what did you say? The baby in my belly is moving! Is it true? Can I touch it and see?"
Mo Yuhan was so excited that he stammered and almost couldn't express himself clearly.
"Of course, Your Majesty. Quickly feel it. The baby is still moving. Can you tell? My belly is moving all the time."
Mo Yuhan nodded blankly, reached out, but hesitated to touch it, so he just kept his hand there.
Seeing him like this, Jiang Jingyue was both amused and exasperated. She immediately pulled his hand and placed it on her stomach.
"Your Majesty, can you feel it? Can you feel the baby moving inside your belly?"
Mo Yuhan nodded, still somewhat dazed. Seeing his expression, Jiang Jingyue simply ignored him.
She immediately brushed Mo Yuhan's hand away and slowly stood up. Thanks to the system's help, Jiang Jingyue didn't feel any discomfort throughout her pregnancy, except for the feeling that her belly was in the way.
Seeing that Jiang Jingyue stood up and was about to walk outside, Mo Yuhan immediately followed her, carefully trailing behind her.
Seeing that Jiang Jingyue was walking rather fast, he couldn't help but speak up with some concern.
"Yueyue, slow down, don't be in such a hurry, take your time."
Jiang Jingyue glanced at him, said nothing, and continued walking.
With her belly so big now, even though the system will help her when she gives birth, Jiang Jingyue still thinks it's better to exercise appropriately.
"Your Majesty, don't worry. I know what I'm doing and won't get tired. You can rest assured."
After saying this, Jiang Jingyue turned to look at Mo Yuhan and asked him a question.
"Your Majesty, is there something you need from me?"
Mo Yuhan nodded with a serious expression. He hesitated for a moment before looking at Jiang Jingyue and speaking slowly.
"Yueyue, I've found the person who drugged you. It turns out to be Consort Xian. I never expected this. I've already sent someone to bring her here. Let's see what she has to say in a moment."
Jiang Jingyue guessed correctly. The evidence they released only made Mo Yuhan think that the drugging was done by Consort Xian, but they couldn't find out who the mastermind was.
At this moment, Jiang Jingyue appropriately revealed a surprised expression, looking at Mo Yuhan with disbelief.
"Your Majesty, why is Consort Xian treating me like this? I have not done anything to wrong her, so why is she treating me like this!"
Mo Yuhan's eyes were icy, and his tone was cold.
"When she gets here, we'll find out. After what she did today, there's no place for her in the harem anymore."
Jiang Jingyue subconsciously shrank back, immediately nestled into Mo Yuhan's arms, her voice trembling slightly.
"Your Majesty, I am terrified. Why do these people keep treating me like this? I have done nothing to them, but they just won't let me go. I almost lost the child in my womb."
Hearing Jiang Jingyue mention the child in her belly, Mo Yuhan's expression darkened even further.
"Yueyue, don't worry! I will definitely give you a satisfactory explanation. After I find out whether she was the mastermind behind it, I will banish her to the cold palace. That way, she will never be able to hurt you again."
Upon hearing Mo Yuhan's words, Jiang Jingyue snuggled closer to him, seemingly quite pleased with his response.
"Your Majesty, the person has been brought here."
Su Changde's voice rang out first, but no one was seen yet. After a while, Jiang Jingyue finally saw Su Changde leading his men in.
Consort Xian was by his side. She had been smiling all along, but when she saw Jiang Jingyue in Mo Yuhan's arms, her expression changed instantly.
Perhaps because she was too happy, she suddenly couldn't bring herself to back down, which made her expression look somewhat ferocious.
