Su Jingyao didn't sleep for long. Her thick eyelashes blinked gently a few times, and then she slowly opened her eyes.
There was still some confusion in his eyes at this moment, as if he was still immersed in the chaos just now.
When she regained consciousness, what she saw was Jun Zechen's handsome and resolute face. She subconsciously shrank back in an instant, like a frightened rabbit.
Jun Zechen had seen a smile on her face when she woke up, but because of her retreat, it froze instantly.
He sighed softly, his voice low and gentle.
"I will not harm the Su family."
Su Jingyao placed her small hands on her chest, tightly gripping the quilt; her fingers turned slightly white due to the force.
"Can I trust Your Highness?"
Her voice trembled, with a hint of uncertainty and timidity.
Without saying a word, Jun Zechen reached into the quilt without hesitation, put his arms around her waist, and with a little force, pulled her into his arms.
"Jiaojiao is pregnant with my eldest son. How can I deal with the Su family?"
There was a hint of pride and doting in Jun Zechen's tone.
Su Jingyao's eyes widened instantly, her eyes full of surprise. She let go of the quilt with her little hands and carefully stroked her belly.
"I am pregnant?"
"Yes, I'm pregnant, so Jiaojiao falsely accused me of drugging you. Did that prove her innocence?"
Jun Zechen raised the corner of his mouth and looked at her with a teasing smile.
Su Jingyao was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly, as if her emotions had burst, she hugged Jun Zechen's neck tightly, as if she wanted to merge herself with him and embed her whole body in his arms.
"Your Highness, I was really scared when I saw those letters."
"I'm afraid that His Highness doesn't like me, that His Highness will harm the Su family, and that His Highness's favor is just an exploit."
She cried and sobbed.
Her crying was pitiful and cute, and her long eyelashes were instantly wet with tears, like a flower covered with morning dew.
"Be good, you're pregnant, crying too much is not good for your health. Naturally, I like you the most."
Jun Zechen gently stroked her back, his movements gentle and soothing, trying to comfort her.
It is a blessing for Su Hongyu, the old fox, to have a daughter like her. If Su Hongyu can't convince her, then he can only talk to Su Jingxuan again. Su Jingxuan's character and ambition are similar to his. Neither this son nor this daughter is like Su Hongyu.
When Su Jingyao thought about her pregnancy, she slowly stopped crying, but she would still sob from time to time, and her petite body trembled slightly in his arms.
Jun Zechen held her like this until he felt her breathing gradually become steady, her body stopped shaking, and her mind became completely calm, then he got up from the bed.
He stood beside the bed, his posture as straight as a pine tree.
Su Jingyao lay on her side, staring at him intently, her eyes reddened and her pupils as if soaked in clear spring water, revealing endless innocence and pity.
"Have you finished dinner?" Jun Zechen asked softly.
“I can’t eat.”
Su Jingyao's voice was still a little hoarse from crying, soft and sticky, without any strength at all.
"You can't eat because you're pregnant. I remember that you were very particular about food. But after you got pregnant, I asked Miaoyue and the food doctor in your palace to learn from you and make a more balanced diet for you. You can't avoid meat anymore."
Jun Zechen's face was slightly serious, and he gave instructions word by word with a serious look.
"You should still eat some at night. Eat as much as you can. Don't eat nothing at all."
After saying that, Jun Zechen bent down slightly and gently picked the person up.
Su Jingyao leaned obediently on his strong chest.
After pregnancy, the dependence seems to have become more serious.
But it's also nice to have an old man serving her. He just has to stretch out his hand for clothes and open his mouth for food. If she is in a bad mood and gets angry, he can only bear it.
At this time, the meals had been neatly arranged on the dining table outside. Miaoyue knew that Su Jingyao was pregnant, so some of the meals she made were suitable for pregnant women.
Jun Zechen didn't have dinner in the first place, and Su Jingyao was feeling listless at the moment, so he could only hold her in his arms and patiently feed her a little from time to time.
She chewed her food slowly and carefully. She just took a bite of the stewed chicken that Jun Zechen fed her, but she chewed it for a long time and couldn't swallow it, so she became a little impatient.
Her brows were furrowed, and her delicate little face was frozen, looking unhappy.
"What's wrong?" Jun Zechen asked with concern.
"I can't swallow it."
Her voice was muffled, with a hint of irritation and grievance.
"Bring me the spittoon."
Jun Zechen frowned slightly and gave the order in a deep voice.
As soon as she finished speaking, a palace maid beside her came over with light steps and brought the spittoon over. She held it steadily in both hands and handed it to Su Jingyao.
Su Jingyao leaned forward slightly, covered her mouth with a handkerchief, and spit into it.
The spittoons of these masters are carefully fumigated with precious spices, so no bad smell will be emitted.
After seeing her vomit, Jun Zechen picked up the tea of suitable temperature and fed it to her mouth. Su Jingyao took a sip, rinsed her mouth and spit it into the spittoon.
Then she leaned weakly on his shoulder, her voice sounding a bit lazy and coquettish.
"Is it because I'm pregnant? Your Highness has become so much gentler. I'm really blessed by the child in my belly."
Jun Zechen has always known that pregnant women tend to worry too much, and when he heard her sour words, he truly felt it.
Although she is the first woman to bear his child in this life, Jun Zechen had many children in his previous life. If he had no memory of his previous life, he might be ecstatic about the arrival of this child.
