Chapter 251: Receive Twenty More Heavy Floggings

Mo Qinghuan let him put his arm around her and walk into the room. There was no expression on her face.

Mu Yanming knew that she was angry because he had kept things from her.

However, he had always only hoped that she could be happy and not think about so many unpleasant things.

But it seemed that he was wrong. She didn't like it like this.

Mu Yanming's eyes fell on the red mark on her neck, and his mind began to wander again. She noticed Mu Yanming beside her pause for a moment. She looked up at him in confusion.

She saw that his eyes were filled with stormy emotions as he looked at her. She swallowed hard and lowered her head uneasily.

Not long after Mu Yanming stayed in the room, Bai Ke came.

However, Bai Ke's strange look at Mo Qinghuan made her extremely uncomfortable.

She threw a provocative look at him and raised her delicate eyebrows slightly.

Mu Yanming saw Mo Qinghuan like this and shook his head indulgently.

Even with his head down, Bai Ke could feel Mu Yanming's joy. He couldn't help but sigh in his heart. When the prince was really angry, perhaps only their princess could coax him well. To be exact, she didn't even need to say a word. As long as she stood there with a smile in her eyes looking at the prince, it could make the prince happy.

Thinking of the gap, Bai Ke sighed. There was really no comparison. Where could those who served whole - heartedly go to reason?

Mu Yanming walked out of the hall. Bai Ke felt that Mo Qinghuan seemed to glare at him. He groaned inwardly. If it weren't for important matters, he wouldn't have come here to disturb their time alone.

Mu Yanming followed him out. Bai Ke reported the news sent back by the secret guards to Mu Yanming.

Mu Yanming sneered and then walked towards the study. The hem of his black robe with cloud patterns was a bit wet, but he didn't care. As he walked, he said, "I've long said that Mu Shengze would never be so quiet. Sure enough, after just a few days of quietness, he's come out to court death."

This was actually expected by him. Bai Ke looked at Mu Yanming, who didn't take Mu Shengze seriously at all, and said in a low voice, "It seems that the prince doesn't care about anything now."

Mu Yanming looked back at him. His eyes were as black as an overturned inkstone, making people feel nervous.

Bai Ke knew that he had spoken too quickly again.

At dinner time, the rain outside was still pattering and hadn't stopped. However, the cool weather made people feel comfortable.

Mu Yanming returned to the Yangyang Palace from the study. There was a thin layer of mist on his body. When he stepped over the threshold, he waved his hand to get rid of the mist on his body, for fear of bringing the cool air to Mo Qinghuan.

She frowned and looked up at Mu Yanming. Thinking of what happened during the day, she still couldn't smile.

However, it would be Concubine Li's birthday tomorrow. He should tell her what the birthday gift was by now.

"Your Highness, what's the birthday gift for Concubine Li tomorrow..."

Mu Yanming walked over and sat in front of her. Looking at the barely - touched rice in her bowl, he couldn't help but frown. He turned to look at Dan'er and asked, "Does the princess always eat so little?"

Dan'er didn't know what to say. She just lowered her head and bit her lips tightly without saying a word.

Since Mo Qinghuan got pregnant, she had indeed eaten very little and was always sleepy.

They had really put in a lot of effort, but the princess's appetite still didn't increase. She still only ate a few mouthfuls for each meal.

It seemed that if she ate a little more, she would vomit. So they didn't dare to force her.

Seeing that Dan'er didn't say a word, Mu Yanming put down the chopsticks he had just picked up heavily on the table. "Come here! Take all the maids in the Yangyang Palace down and give them twenty heavy floggings."

Mo Qinghuan staggered. She looked up at him in disbelief. He lowered his eyes and didn't look at Mo Qinghuan. He knew it was useless to persuade her to eat more, and he couldn't bear to do anything to her. So he used her maids to scare her, hoping that she would eat more because of this.

How could Mo Qinghuan not know what he meant? She raised her delicate fingers and pulled at his sleeve gently, saying, "Your Highness, I will eat well from now on. Please don't punish them. They have served me whole - heartedly."

Mu Yanming stretched out his long, well - defined fingers to lift her thin chin. His face immediately darkened. She was originally thin, and she had lost more weight from vomiting these days. He was afraid that one day a strong wind would blow her away.

Seeing his gloomy face, Mo Qinghuan thought he still hadn't agreed. She pulled at his sleeve and shook it twice again.

Just then, she felt a tickle in her throat. Unable to bear the churning in her stomach any longer, she bent over, holding the table, and retched.

This time, Mu Yanming was completely defeated. He raised his hand, looked coldly at the kneeling maids, and said, "Get out of here!"

The maids then got up and retreated.

He picked her up horizontally. Mo Qinghuan put her arms around his neck. Her body was close to his. Through the clothes, she could feel the burning temperature of Mu Yanming's body.

She buried her small face in his shoulder. Her breath landed on his neck, and there was also a faint fragrance of medicinal herbs on her body, which was intoxicating.

Especially the delicate body in his arms was so soft. He quickened his pace, returned to the room, and gently placed her on the bed. However, the arm that Mo Qinghuan had around his neck didn't loosen.

Mu Yanming was stunned. His obsidian - like eyes looked deeply into Mo Qinghuan's eyes, filled with tenderness. She blushed shyly and just hung on his neck without saying a word.

A thought suddenly popped into Mu Yanming's mind, and he said it out loud. "Be good. You've just been pregnant for a short time. Such actions will hurt the baby."

Mo Qinghuan's hand immediately loosened. Her fingertips slid across his neck, and a burning sensation instantly spread.

For a long time, the temperature of her fingertips didn't drop. She pulled the quilt over herself and covered herself up. At this moment, she wished she could find a hole to crawl into.

She originally wanted to ask who the person that Mu Yanming said should be killed without mercy during the day was. She didn't expect that before she could ask anything, she was misunderstood by Mu Yanming.

Mu Yanming sat up straight, looking at the lump under the quilt. He smiled with his eyebrows and shook his head indulgently.

Actually, he knew what she meant. But if she really asked, he would definitely not have the heart to refuse. So he deliberately used this trick.

He didn't expect to make the little girl so shy.

Mo Qinghuan stayed in the quilt for a long time and didn't hear any movement from Mu Yanming. She thought he had left. As a result, as soon as she came out of the quilt and showed half of her face, she saw Mu Yanming trying hard to suppress his desire.

Mu Yanming didn't expect her to come out suddenly. He quickly suppressed the emotions in his eyes. However, his body was very honest. He lifted the quilt and got in.

Mo Qinghuan moved inside, but Mu Yanming grabbed her back and hugged her in his arms. Their bodies immediately fit tightly together.
