Yan Xuanye could roughly guess what she was thinking, but he didn't care.
He would order someone to prepare and deliver the pregnancy-maintaining medicine three times a day, and his daily diet would be prepared according to the highest standards.
As long as she is determined to forget Lu Huan and stay by his side as she promised just now, it will be fine.
In fact... as long as she didn't accuse him in her heart, as long as she could trust him a little bit, the child could be saved.
This was all he could do. Whether she believed it or not was up to her.
Whether this child can be saved depends on God's will.
…
Su Qingci slowly took a sip of the black chicken soup and didn't taste anything strange. She looked at Yan Xuanye suspiciously, and when she saw that he looked normal and nothing was wrong, she drank it with confidence.
Yan Xuanye ate his dinner leisurely, his mood had improved a little.
"After we finish eating, I'll take you to see something."
Su Qingci asked, "What?"
Yan Xuanye spoke mysteriously, but Su Qingci had a hunch that it was not a good thing.
He said, "You'll know when you get there."
…
After dinner, Yan Xuanye and Su Qingci slowly walked out of the tent and headed straight for an open space in the military camp.
When Su Qingci saw the scene clearly on the open space of the military camp, he couldn't help but gasp.
I saw four or five maids tied up tightly, kneeling there like lambs to be slaughtered.
Su Qingci looked closely and found that these were the maids she heard in the tent when she was diagnosed with pregnancy.
At this moment, all the maids had their hands and feet tied, kneeling pitifully in the open space of the military camp.
Behind each person stood a military man holding a machete and with a stern face.
The machete gleamed coldly in the moonlight, like the scythe of the god of death, ready to reap lives at any time.
Su Qingci couldn't help but plead, "Aye, can you let them go?"
"This matter has nothing to do with them. Besides, they are also Fengyuan people and your subjects." Her voice trembled a little, like fallen leaves in the wind.
Yan Xuanye did not give a direct answer, but took a roundabout way.
He just raised his hand slightly, and the men in the barracks put their sharp knives on the maids' slender necks without hesitation.
In an instant, the maids were like frightened birds, crying out in panic and at a loss.
The crying sounded like a cuckoo crying blood, each cry was shrill and echoed in the silent military camp, which was creepy.
"I don't care if the son is not a subject of the people."
Yan Xuanye stared at Su Qingci with a sharp gaze and asked, "Ah Ci, I'll only ask you once, do you want to save their lives?"
Su Qingci didn't understand the deep meaning of his words for a moment, but nodded subconsciously and said, "I want to."
Yan Xuanye snorted coldly, as if he had grasped her weakness, and said, "In that case, tell them to come back and serve. Just one thing... you have to know that if you try to escape in the future and I find you, their heads will still fall to the ground."
His voice was cold and ruthless, like ice that had not melted for a thousand years.
He was threatening the lives of these maids. Yan Xuanye knew very well that she would not give up so easily, and he also understood her inner reluctance, so he brought her here to see these maids.
What a good trick to kill the chicken to scare the monkey, using coercion and inducement.
He was truly a complete lunatic! The maids kneeling under the knife were all Fengyuan people, all his subjects, yet he didn't care about their lives or deaths.
For Yan Xuanye, those maids from Fengyuan Kingdom were nothing more than a means to blackmail her.
It was obvious that the child in her belly was her biggest weakness and the biggest bargaining chip he could use to threaten her, but he still threatened and frightened her.
How could she not blame?
She cursed in her heart, Yan Xuanye is such a heartless man, isn’t he afraid of being struck by lightning?
However, she had to agree no matter what. It was because of her that the maids were in such a state. If she didn't agree, she would be really heartless.
Moreover, she also wanted to accumulate blessings for the baby in her belly, hoping that the baby would be born safely.
So, she forced herself to smile, "Didn't I already promise you? I won't leave and will always stay by your side. Why are you still trying to scare me?"
Yan Xuanye looked at her quietly, as if he could see through her inner thoughts.
After a while, he smiled and said, "I can't bear to see Ah Ci make mistakes, so I can only remind Ah Ci a few more times."
After that, he gave the order to release the maids and let them go back to have a good rest and come back to serve tomorrow.
"Madam is begging for you, you must be grateful and serve her well."
"Yes, we know." Several maids responded in unison.
The ropes on their bodies were untied, and they all thanked Su Qingci for saving them.
Su Qingci couldn't describe how he felt, but it was definitely uncomfortable.
Seeing that she looked pale, Yan Xuanye didn't dare to let her stay outside in the cold wind for too long, so he took her back to the tent.
"The weather is getting colder, and it's not convenient for you to take care of your pregnancy here. I plan to take you back to Mobei tomorrow. What do you think?"
Su Qingci: "Is Mobei... cold?"
"Although the weather is cold, it is not cold in the palace. We have all the necessary charcoal fires and warm clothes. When you come to me, I will only give you the best."
Yan Xuanye frowned. "It's just that the journey back might be a little difficult. But don't worry, I will find a way to make your journey back as comfortable as possible."
