Chapter 168: Man is iron and rice is steel, if you don't eat, you will be hungry

The eldest prince heard this: "..."

The Crown Prince felt that the eldest prince was being a little hypocritical today. He couldn't help but ask bluntly, "Brother, is this necessary? You are a man, but you are deceiving yourself?"

"What do you know?" The eldest prince said, and then cursed: "I curse that all your future children will be sons. It would be best if they could form a Cuju team."

Prince: “Ahem.” How vicious!

Yu Wanyin: I curse my eldest brother to give birth to a bunch of sons, and none of them will listen to him.

The next day was the second day of the Chinese New Year.

The eldest prince took Xiao Jingwen back to her parents' home.

Along the way, the eldest prince took great care of Xiao Jingwen, without any of the roughness and lack of romance of a warrior.

Xiao Jingwen felt very happy.

After returning to her parents' home, her parents were also very happy.

The Xiao family's two elders have only one daughter, Xiao Jingwen. They have been looking forward to Xiao Jingwen getting pregnant, and now she is finally pregnant.

Soon, they will have grandchildren.

Moreover, the eldest prince is also good to their daughter.

They are very satisfied.

It was also thanks to their open-mindedness that the marriage between the eldest prince and Xiao Jingwen was possible. We have to thank Princess Yongle.

The two elders of the Xiao family prepared a New Year gift and sent someone to deliver it to Jiujiu.

Xiao Jingwen was very happy to hear this, but she started to feel unhappy when she left the Xiao Mansion.

As soon as she and the eldest prince walked out of the Xiao Mansion, they saw her scumbag ex-husband, Captain Li.

Captain Li came here only after hearing that Xiao Jingwen was pregnant.

He felt that his self-esteem as a man was being trampled underfoot, and he felt very uncomfortable, so he took advantage of the day when Xiao Jingwen returned to her parents' home to come and verify whether Xiao Jingwen was really pregnant.

I didn't expect it to be true.

He pointed at Xiao Jingwen's big belly and said in a trembling voice: "Xiao Jingwen, you are my woman, and you are pregnant with another man's child?"

"You're an unfaithful slut."

"I'm so pissed off."

Captain Li was so angry that he still thought Xiao Jingwen was the same Xiao Jingwen as before, and he scolded her without caring about anything.

The two elders of the Xiao family who followed him out were so angry that they asked, "Li Yong, what nonsense are you talking about?"

"Our Jingwen has nothing to do with you anymore."

"You are going too far by talking nonsense like this."

The eldest prince protected Xiao Jingwen behind him, looked at Captain Li dangerously, and said angrily: "Jingwen divorced you a long time ago, how can she be your woman? She is my woman."

The eldest prince is very possessive.

"Besides, why do you scold her? What qualifications do you have to scold her?"

"She is now the eldest prince's consort. Can you scold her?"

"Do you still think she is the Xiao Jingwen who can be ravaged by anyone?"

The eldest prince looked very fierce and not as easy to talk to as usual. He also spent the whole day hanging around Xiao Jingwen, acting like a low-key person.

Xiao Jingwen and the two elders of the Xiao family were all frightened by him.

Captain Li was no exception. He was so frightened that he lowered his arrogance a lot.

The eldest prince's words also made him suddenly realize that things are different now and he can no longer treat Xiao Jingwen like this.

Xiao Jingwen is already a member of the royal family.

He, he was really so angry that he cursed Xiao Jingwen in front of so many people.

He was so scared that he broke out in a cold sweat.

"Kneel down."

Said the eldest prince.

"…Captain Li knelt down reluctantly.

The eldest prince pointed at Xiao Jingwen beside him and said in a domineering tone: "Greet the eldest prince's wife?"

"What?"

Captain Li found it hard to accept.

This is murderous and heartbreaking!

He actually asked him to meet the woman who had been trampled under his feet and ravaged by him? This was humiliating him.

"Why, you don't want to?" The eldest prince said, pulling out the sword from his waist and putting it on Captain Li's neck.

"Killing you is easy."

"This prince has nothing to worry about right now."

"No, no, no..." Captain Li was so frightened that he dared not keep his composure any longer. He knelt down hastily and greeted the Crown Princess in a timid manner, "Your Majesty, your Majesty greets the Crown Princess. May your Majesty live a thousand years, a thousand thousand years."

"snort."

The eldest prince snorted disdainfully, but did not let Captain Li go.

He remembered everything Captain Li did to Xiao Jingwen, and had been looking for a chance to fight back. Now, the opportunity had come to him.

"Ask the heavens and the earth, this Captain Li committed treason and offended the Crown Prince's wife. He deserves death."

"I'm afraid I'm not up to the job of a lieutenant. Why don't you just demote me to a fireman in the barracks?"

"If you can't cook well or chop wood well, you will be beaten."

"By the way, since he can't spit out ivory from a dog's mouth, just pull out his tongue. You two go and supervise the matter!"

"Yes, Your Highness."

Wen Tian Wen Di took Captain Li away.

Captain Li cried, crying for his own stupidity. He was only concerned about his dignity as a man being trampled upon, but he forgot that he was just a captain now. How dare he cause trouble for the eldest prince and his wife?

He is seeking his own death!

He is stupid and wrong.

"I was wrong, Grand Prince. Please don't make me a fireman, okay?"

"And don't pull out my tongue."

"I admit my mistake."

He still has some prospects as a captain, but if he becomes a fireman, he will have no chance of success and his salary will drop sharply.

It's totally incomparable to before.

The eldest prince ignored him and escorted the eldest prince's wife back to the palace.

When Jiujiu came to see the Queen Mother that day, the Queen Mother had not taken the medicine and refused to eat. She lay on the bed, looking like she was waiting to die.

She knew her body couldn't hold out for much longer.

She didn't want to hold on any longer.

The sooner you die, the sooner you escape.

But Jiujiu refused.

Jiujiu brought some rice to the Queen's bedside and said sweetly, "Mother, Jiujiu invites you to dinner?"

"I have no appetite. Take it away?" The queen waved her hand weakly.

"Mother, man is made of iron and rice is made of steel. If you don't eat for a meal you will feel hungry. You must eat." Jiujiu advised.

The queen looked at Jiujiu and smiled. "Where did you learn this from? It sounds very interesting."

"But, Mother is really not hungry, please stop trying to persuade her."

"But Jiujiu has heard that the Queen Mother has not been eating well or sleeping well in recent years. She refused to take medicine when she was sick and was depressed, so she ended up like this."

"Mother, Brother Tianshu is really alive."

"In a few years, he will be back."

"You have to be alive so that you can wait for him to come back? You have to eat."

The Queen still didn't believe it, and didn't want Jiujiu to persuade her anymore, so she used the old method to drive people away: "Jiujiu, please go, your mother is a little tired and wants to sleep."

"No, Jiujiu won't leave." Jiujiu said, "If the Queen Mother doesn't eat, Jiujiu won't leave."

“…”

This child is actually cheating.

The queen looked at Jiujiu helplessly, not knowing what to do.

She really didn't want to eat.

But if she doesn't eat, the little guy won't leave...

what to do?

It’s better to just wait. The little guy will be hungry and will probably leave on his own without forcing her anymore.
