Afterwards, when she returned to her room, Mitui and Niaoniao told her to be even more careful. Although the pregnancy was much more stable at six months, it was still necessary to be cautious.
Chided by her maids, Song Jinyu blushed. What could she do?
They were together every day and slept in each other's arms every night. How could they resist? However... he had truly done well.
He was so considerate in every aspect, afraid of making her unhappy. Now he had declined more social gatherings just to accompany her more.
Song Jinyu recalled the way he was when they first met. He was so infuriating, always being domineering and unreasonable,
often scaring her.
But... from that time on, she had fallen into the net he had woven. Without hesitation, bit by bit. After experiencing so many things, his original heart had never changed.
Caressing her belly, this child was really considerate. Niaoniao brought over a newly made crystal pork knuckle. "Princess, eat it while it's hot."
She quite liked meat. The pork skin was tender, and the meat was succulent. Just as Song Jinyu was about to eat, she heard the sound of a bead curtain.
"How's your appetite today?"
"Great! You have a bite..." Song Jinyu fed him the first mouthful. "It's fresh, fragrant, and sticky..."
"Right! I think this cook is really good."
Seeing her enjoying the food, Zhongli Mingye said, "Reward her!"
"The marriage of Princess Heyi has been set. Concubine Jia sent a lot of things." Zhongli Mingye waved his hand, and Xing Jian and the others filed in. "Do you like these things for children?"
Song Jinyu smiled. "Mother sent a lot the other day, and Duanya and Suoli also sent a lot. Now Concubine Jia has sent some too."
"It seems I don't need to prepare anything as a mother."
He put his arm around her. "It's because you've always been kind to them. So... this is also your preparation." He was really good at talking. She pinched him contentedly and sighed.
"I really wish I could give birth soon. I used to see my sister - in - law give birth quickly. But when it comes to me, the time seems to pass so slowly." Her red lips pouted slightly. She was getting heavier and couldn't do anything. Moreover, she had been a bit depressed recently because of Heyi's matter.
"You have to wait until the due date. Just stay at home and relax."
He coaxed her tenderly. Only then did the little pregnant woman calm down. "By the way, Wen Sirong will come to the mansion in a few days."
"What is Senior Brother Wen coming for?"
"To help you with your pregnancy." Zhongli Mingye said it as if it were the most ordinary thing. Senior Brother Wen coming to help with her pregnancy? She felt a bit uncomfortable for no reason.
The leader of Tianmen Mountain coming to help with her pregnancy?
"Tianmen Mountain is stable now. Anyway, this is your first child, and there can be no mistakes." Afraid that she had been standing for too long, Zhongli Mingye coaxed her to lie down with him.
He played with her delicate hand. "I'll be more at ease when he comes."
Alright. Song Jinyu saw that although his expression was the same as usual, he seemed even more nervous than she was. For her safety, he had even sent someone to invite Wen Sirong.
Although Heyi's "illness" had been cured, she had left with some "after - effects". Concubine Jia intended to avenge Heyi, so the emperor ordered the Ling family to wait until Princess Heyi's wedding and then set off for Beirong.
As soon as Heyi recovered, she went to Prince Yu's mansion. "Jinyu, thank you!" This thanks was sincere.
Since she met Song Jinyu, it was always because of her that Heyi could turn danger into safety. "Come on... why are you saying this?" She really liked Heyi.
It was just about Prime Minister Ling. At first, she guessed Zhongli Mingye's intention and then guided Heyi to have an "attack". Only when Heyi's life was in danger would the emperor severely punish Prime Minister Ling.
Otherwise, with Prime Minister Ling's scheming, this matter might have ended up without any result.
"Since Cheng Song has just been made a marquis, I'm afraid the betrothal gifts will be a bit meager." Song Jinyu was a bit worried. As soon as she took out some silver from her dowry, Zhongli Mingye noticed.
"Do you need to worry about this?"
He found Cheng Song and directly offered to give him three manors outside the capital, but Cheng Song refused them all. "I should do my best when I marry a wife!"
Heyi was touched. She leaned close to Song Jinyu. "Father has already bestowed a lot of dowry." Looking at Heyi, Song Jinyu suddenly thought of Lin Ziyu from Liuzhou City.
If she were still alive, she would be talking about marriage now.
Her heart throbbed slightly. She had never forgotten anyone from the past.
Since the Empress Dowager had been imprisoned in the palace, Ming Ruyi had not pleaded for her. It was good that she was locked up, so as not to be used by those with ulterior motives.
Zhongli Mingye was helpless. The Empress Dowager was indeed a bit shrewd and could read the situation. But as Song Jinyu had said, he would never give Ming Ruyi any chance to rebel.
The steady breathing of the little pregnant woman beside him affected him. Looking closely, her waist had become much rounder recently. Her belly was bigger and rounder than before.
That was their child.
That night, the deposed crown prince Zhongli Chengze was extremely furious. Because he saw with his own eyes Chen Mingzhu and Chen Feng having a tryst right under his nose.
The two, caught in the act, were not afraid. Chen Mingzhu glared at Zhongli Chengze. "I'm willing to be with A Feng."
"Slap!"
Zhongli Chengze slapped her so hard that her face was turned to one side. "How dare you betray me!"
Chen Mingzhu fell to the ground. "Ha... You can have affairs with the beauties in Father's palace, but why can't I be with A Feng?"
"What are you anyway? A deposed crown prince. Now this mansion depends on my dowry... How dare you hit me?"
Chen Mingzhu got up from the ground and stared at the deposed crown prince menacingly.
"You've ruined my life. You killed my first child. You deserve to die!" Chen Mingzhu pounced on Zhongli Chengze like a madwoman and they started to fight. Zhongli Chengze was stunned. He never thought that one day this woman would dare to resist him! He immediately kicked her away.
Seeing his beloved woman injured, Chen Feng was about to attack. "Ah!" But before he could move, a sword was thrust into his chest. Chen Mingzhu's eyes widened in horror, filled with great sorrow. She crawled desperately towards Chen Feng.
Jinyu pulled out the sword and looked at the blood on it with disgust. "Even a tiger is bullied by dogs when it's down, Your Highness. You must be feeling it now, right?"
Stepping on Chen Feng's body, her fox - like eyes became even more sinister. "The plan is almost complete... Just wait for the news!"
"I'll give you the world. I only want Song Jinyu!" The shrill and feminine voice was chilling.
The deposed crown prince Zhongli Chengze kicked Chen Mingzhu away. "If she weren't still useful, I would have killed her long ago!"
When he regained the crown prince's throne, he would surely torture those people to death!
Chen Mingzhu fainted. Jinyu looked at her coldly and signaled the people outside to watch over her.
To prevent her from ruining his grand plan.
Just wait a little longer, Song Jinyu. I'm coming...
The creepy cackle was terrifying in the dark night. The deposed crown prince Zhongli Chengze sneered inwardly. He was gradually figuring out Jinyu's identity.
He boldly guessed that this "woman" might be Ouyang Jinse, who had been missing for a long time. Jinyu, Jinyu. He was really infatuated.
Even after turning into a woman, he still missed Song Jinyu, who had become the Princess of Yu.
It was really spineless to be so obsessed with a woman! But it was fine. The deposed crown prince Zhongli Chengze didn't care why Jinyu was so obsessed with Song Jinyu.
He just wanted to be restored to his position!
