"I'm not eating, I have no appetite." Lin Xihe folded the letter in her hand, without looking up.
Since he wasn't going to look at it, she would keep it herself and read it slowly when she missed Ji Zhuo.
"Then let's summon the imperial physician to examine her pulse again?" Mu Ruoyan put down his pen, sat down beside her, and unconsciously placed his hand on her lower abdomen.
In the past month or two, except when she was unable to make it, the two were intimate almost every night.
A few days ago, Lin Xihe frequently felt nauseous, and Mu Ruoyan once thought she was pregnant. However, after examining her pulse, the imperial physician said that she was not pregnant, but was just tired from traveling for days.
“Didn’t we just have a check-up yesterday? It’s not what you think. I’m just too tired from the bumpy journey.” Lin Xihe let his hand stroke her and casually said, “You’ve given me so many medicines before, maybe… I can’t get pregnant.”
She already has a baby named Tangbao and has no strong desire to have another child.
“That medicine will definitely not harm your body, that’s why I let you take it. However, it doesn’t matter if you can’t get pregnant. I’m just worried that if you do get pregnant, I’ll have to be more careful, won’t I?” Mu Ruoyan said, her hand moving restlessly upwards.
Lin Xihe slapped his hand away: "We're in a carriage!"
“Back in Nanzhao, we were also in a carriage… I still remember it vividly.” Mu Ruoyan’s hand not only didn’t withdraw, but became even more unrestrained, and finally he simply pulled her into his arms.
Lin Xihe blushed with embarrassment, wanting to struggle but not daring to make a sound.
With maids and guards accompanying her outside the carriage, she could only lower her voice, afraid that the people outside would notice. Fortunately, Mu Ruoyan only took advantage of her and did not go too far.
“Ayan…” she called softly.
"Um?"
"If you don't want to have any more children, will you find someone else to have them with?"
The two had never discussed this issue, but Lin Xihe still remembered the pain she experienced when giving birth to Tang Bao, and she felt resistant to it.
“I don’t particularly like children. I only like Tangbao because you gave birth to her. I’ve said it before, there will only be you in my harem. Don’t doubt me, I can keep my word.” Mu Ruo’s tone was serious, but her hands had already unbuttoned her collar.
Lin Xihe was initially touched, but his rude behavior angered her so much that she bit his hand.
Mu Ruoyan winced in pain and cried out softly, "Ouch, it hurts...it hurts..."
Lin Xihe released her mouth and glared at him.
"I can tolerate it through your clothes, but if you keep doing this, get off and ride a horse!"
Outside the carriage, Xu Qi and Ling Xue were closest. Hearing the commotion inside, they both blushed and quickly dispersed the surrounding procession to the side.
Almost every day, they could hear the two whispering intimately in the carriage, but even after a month, they still couldn't get used to it, and every time they heard it, they couldn't help but blush.
However, just as the convoy was about to reach the northern border, Lin Xihe's health suddenly deteriorated rapidly, and she became increasingly weak.
Just before entering the city, she suddenly fainted without warning.
