1. Zheng Dan is pregnant

When the news of Xiangbao's miscarriage reached Fan Li's ears, it was already three months later.

"We wasted so much effort, and we couldn't make Fucha and Wu Zixu completely turn against each other, it seems that we have to use her." Gou Jian said lightly.

"This winter, it's cold." Fan Li looked out the window, suddenly spoke, and said something incorrect.

This winter, it's really cold.

Xiangbao's robe was done, but there was no way to wear it, and her needlework was never flattering.

Since that night, the husband has stayed in the Drunken Moon Pavilion every night, but he never touches her, only sleeps with her. Xiangbao didn't understand what he was thinking.

Until that day......

"What do you say? Zheng Dan is pregnant? Xiangbao's eyes widened, and he said in disbelief.

Hua Mei nodded, worried.

She ...... It's been a little different lately. Xiangbao carefully considered the sentence, "Do you know why?" Why did Slenn show up in her garden with the Assassin that night? Who are they targeting? ”

Hua Mei hid the panic that flashed in her eyes: "What's the difference, she obviously forgot her identity, and she was fascinated by the glory and wealth in front of her." ”

She said...... She just wanted to live. Xiangbao spoke slowly, paying attention to Hua Mei's expression.

Hua Mei frowned: "You believe that she is talking nonsense, it is clearly an excuse." ”

So Xiangbao didn't say anything more. After sending Hua Mei away, Xiangbao slowly returned to the couch and sat down, stunned. After sitting in a daze for an afternoon, she didn't have a clue.

"It's cold, be careful of freezing." Ziruo closed the window and took a blanket to cover her lap.

Xiangbao nodded, leaned on the couch, and accidentally fell asleep.

There was a pair of disturbing hands gently scraping her face, Xiangbao wrinkled her nose, and opened her eyes in displeasure.

"What are you doing here?" Xiangbao rubbed her eyes and sat up with a grunt.

"Watch you sleep."

Stop, Xiangbao has a bunch of black lines in front of his forehead, what is there to see when sleeping.

"What did Hua Mei tell you today?"

"Oh, she said Zheng Dan was pregnant." Xiangbao got up and found that it was dark, and she had slept all afternoon, which was really a pig.

Fucha frowned slightly.

"What are you doing with this expression? Aren't you happy? Xiangbao turned around, surprised, and then smiled and waved his hand, "Don't worry, I'm not jealous." ”

The husband looked at her lightly: "What is there to be happy about, I don't know if I can give birth or not." ”

Xiangbao was stunned for a moment, what does this mean?

"Are you hungry?" With a change of tone, he said suddenly.

Knowing that he would do this every time he changed the topic, Xiangbao always nodded immediately without arguing, and she was not interested in this topic anyway.

It was dark, Zheng Dan sat in the room, caressing his slightly protruding abdomen. The husband did not come, and he had not come for more than three months since he met the woman pretending to be Shih Tzu in the garden that day.

The palm is warm, there, there is a small life, Zheng Dan smiled unconsciously. It turns out that being a mother can be so happy.

"Madame, Madame, the king is here." The maid hurried over and said.

Zheng Dan was a little surprised, but she was extremely happy in her heart, she hurriedly stood up and tidied up her sideburns: "Hurry up and prepare dinner." ”

Standing at the tuyere to greet him, because he was pregnant, Zheng Dan put on a fur coat to keep out the cold. In the distance, the husband came over, only one person, without an entourage. The slender body has the style of dominating the world, and that man is the father of the child in her womb. Thinking like this, Zheng Dan's eyes had a different look.

"Ma'am." He walked up to her with a smile on the corner of his lips, "It's so cold, how can you stand in the wind?" ”

"The concubine is waiting for the king here." Zheng Dan tilted his head and said with a smile.

Madame smiled, even this cold winter is about to melt. The husband reached out and tightened the strap on her neckline.

Zheng Dan lowered his eyes, with shyness on his face, and didn't notice that the smile on the corner of his husband's lips did not reach his eyes.

"Let's go inside."

"Hmm."

The husband carried Zheng Dan into the house, and the bronze stove in the house was burning with charcoal, which was very warm.

"Has the king had dinner?" Zheng Dan asked lightly.

The husband glanced at the table: "Not yet." ”

"Then the concubine will wait for the king's meal." Zheng Dan said with a smile.

The husband sat down at the table and looked around: "Let's all stand down." ”

Everyone retreated according to the words, and Zheng Dan was surprised, "Don't you keep them waiting?" ”

"It's enough to have a lady." The husband raised his lips.

Hearing this, Zheng Dan immediately blushed.

The husband raised his hand, raised the glass and took a sip: "It's so dull, isn't there any wine?" ”

"The king will wait a moment, and the concubine will go and fetch it." Zheng Dan hurriedly stood up and went to get the wine.

The husband looked at her back as she left in a hurry: "Madame, slow down, be careful of your step." ”

Zheng Dan's heart warmed, and the smile on his lips deepened a little. Fucha's eyes were cold little by little, and he kept looking at the charcoal fire burning in the copper furnace until Zheng Dan walked out of the room, then he took out a packet of medicine from his sleeve, got up calmly, and put it into Zheng Dan's cup.

As soon as Zheng Dan came out of the house, he suddenly remembered that he didn't ask him what kind of wine he wanted to drink, so he hurriedly turned back, and before he stepped through the door, he saw that his husband had gotten up and put something in her cup.

The heart fell to the bottom in an instant. Holding on to the wall to stabilize his crumbling body, Zheng Dan staggered out the door, his face as pale as snow.

"Someone." After waiting for a while, the husband became a little impatient.

"Yes."

"Let's see Madame, why has it been so long." He commanded lightly.

"The King." Zheng Dan's voice sounded at the right time, she looked as usual, and held a pot of wine in her hand, "This is the wine brewed by the concubine, specially reserved for the king." ”

Fucha got up with a smile and took it, opened the stopper and sniffed lightly: "It's really good wine." ”

After pouring a full cup, the husband handed it to the guard who stood behind him at some point, and the guard took it and drank it all in one gulp. Zheng Dan knew that it was a test of poison. It is clear that he has a ghost in his heart, but he came to try her?

The guard was unharmed, and the husband changed the cup, poured another glass, and sipped lightly.

Zheng Dan smiled and asked, "How is this wine?" ”

"Good wine."

"The concubines are also hungry." As she spoke, she changed her glass and wanted to pour the wine.

"Madame is pregnant, it is not appropriate to drink, drink tea." The husband took her cup and fed it to her lips.

Zheng Dan froze, her pale lips touched the slightly cold tea, she shivered, and subconsciously pursed her lips.

"Madame has always been extremely intelligent." The husband whispered in her ear, "But why, did you do something stupid?" "It's obviously a very close posture, but the words that come out of your mouth are as cold as ice.

"Concubine...... The concubine did not understand what the king was talking about. ”

"The widow should have instructed the doctor to prepare a decoction for you to take." The husband looked at her lightly, his eyes were cold, "Has Madame drunk?" ”

Zheng Dan's eyes were full of horror, and he trembled in his arms: "Why? ”

"If you have a thought that you shouldn't have, you must have the awareness to suffer the consequences." He pinched her mouth and forcibly poured cold water into her mouth.

The cold water was cold to the heart.

"Why ......" Zheng Dan was unwilling.

He let go of his hand and let Zheng Dan sit heavily on the ground: "It's cold, Madame, rest early." ”

"There is one more problem with the concubine." Bowing her head, she tightened her skirt.

The husband looked down at the woman who was sitting on the ground.

"Mrs. Xi Shi's miscarriage, is it also because of the king?" She looked up slowly, looking at her husband, her eyes a little frighteningly bright, with some kind of hidden sarcasm.

The husband slowly crouched down and met her eyes.

"Being too smart isn't necessarily a good thing." He looked at her and spoke lightly.

The corners of Zheng Dan's mouth hooked a smile: "You are so pitiful." ”

His slender hand squeezed her slender neck, and she felt like she was about to lose her breath.

"You're afraid, you're afraid she knows...... You killed your children...... Yun Ji, it's just an excuse......" With a dumb voice, Zheng Dan said intermittently.

Yes, Yun Ji is an excuse, but for her, he doesn't even bother to use excuses.

"Do you want to die?" His eyes narrowed slightly, and his voice was extremely cold.

Zheng Dan tugged at the corners of his lips: "I...... If I die...... Shih Tzu must have doubted ......"

With his hand slightly loose, he looked at her lightly.

Zheng Dan coughed lightly.

"Tonight's events, if she hears half of the sentence, the widow will let you die without a place to bury." With that, he shook his sleeves and strode away.

Suddenly lost his clamps, and the cold air poured into his throat, Zheng Dan choked, coughed embarrassedly, and coughed up tears.

Because he was afraid that Xiangbao would be suspicious, he spared her from death.

Walking out of the Moon Pavilion, the moon is hanging in the sky.

"The king, Wu Xiang said that there are important matters to discuss with the king." On the side, there are guards.

"It's so late, let him go back."

"But ......"

The husband glanced at the guard faintly, and he immediately fell silent, not daring to speak again.

"That guy, I'm afraid I'm having nightmares again." Glancing up at the moon in the sky, he strode towards the Drunken Moon Pavilion.

Ziruo was keeping vigil, and when she saw that her husband was on a mission, she was not surprised, but she just lifted the curtain and let him in. After three months in a row, she had long been used to it.

Xiangbao was curled up on the couch, muttering and not knowing what to say, his eyebrows were furrowed tightly, and he was really having nightmares again. Taking off his robe and lying down beside her, he wiped the cold sweat from her forehead with a handkerchief, and reached out to encircle her in his arms.

She snuggled up to him obediently, gradually quieted down, with a sweet smile on the corner of her mouth, and slept peacefully. The husband couldn't help but bow his head and kiss her rosy lips. She rubbed unconsciously, his breathing suddenly became heavy, and he finally suppressed the desire to eat her alive, and he smiled bitterly: "You are really a disaster." ”

Honestly hugged him, and he didn't touch her again.

There was not a single maid in the Moon Appreciation Pavilion, and Zheng Dan was curled up on the cold ground alone: "Come on, come on, come on, ......" The voice was weak and weak, but no one answered her.

Little by little, the charcoal fire in the copper furnace was extinguished, and the dishes on the table had cooled. She gritted her teeth, climbed onto the couch by herself, and wrapped herself in the quilt, but she still couldn't suppress the chill that welled up from the bottom of her heart.

Suddenly she began to cramp in her abdomen, as if she was about to strip her soul out of her body, it hurt, it hurt...... Her face was stained with a layer of dead ash, she knew that no one would come to save her, and she knew that if she couldn't get through it, she would die. But even if she died, no one would shed a tear for her. So, she can't die. If she died, wouldn't it grant many people's wishes? She wants to live, she wants to live to see what happens to these people!

At dawn the door finally opened, and a maid entered. Zheng Dan was lying on the bed, his sideburns were scattered, and his eyes were closed and motionless.

"Husband...... Madam? The maid's face became frightened.

Zheng Dan did not respond. The maid stepped forward boldly and reached out to probe her snort, but she suddenly opened her eyes. The maid was startled, took a step back, and fell to the ground.

"I'm not dead yet." She tugged at her lips and said in a hoarse voice, "Prepare the hot water, I'm going to bathe." ”

Taking off her blood-stained robe, she stepped into the hot water. The curling water vapor came to her face, and she sat down slowly, and the red blood slowly floated to the surface of the water, spreading little by little.

She closed her eyes, her face as dead as ashes.

"Zheng Dan had a miscarriage?" Xiangbao listened to Ziruo's nagging while having breakfast.

"yes, I heard it was last night." Ziruo nodded.

"How so?"

"Probably because of my weak body, I don't have that blessing." Ziruo said, suddenly remembering that Xiangbao had also lost a child, and was busy talking.

Xiangbao just nodded and didn't ask anything more.

"Mother, mother......" Si Xiang ran in from outside the door all the way, probably running in a hurry, and her face was still red.

"Slow down." Xiangbao looked up with a smile, "Have you had breakfast?" ”

"Hmm." Si Xiang rubbed over to Xiangbao and sat down, looking at Xiangbao.

Xiangbao was stared at by him: "What are you looking at?" ”

"What method did you use to coax your father not to be angry?" Si Xiang tilted her head, looking very curious.

"Why do you ask?"

"Hey, hey, my father hasn't looked for another woman recently!" Si Xiang smiled hesitantly, "It's like having dinner at Mrs. Zheng Dan's yesterday, but in the end I still came to find my mother, I heard that Wu Xiangguo waited outside the palace for a night, and he was so angry that he blew his beard and stared." ”

The smile froze on his lips, and Xiangbao looked sideways at Ziruo: "The king came last night?" ”

"yes." Ziruo smiled, "I left early in the morning, and I was told not to wake up Madame." ”

Xiangbao bowed his head and was silent. Seeing that Xiangbao ignored him, Si Xiang couldn't sit still and ran out to play. Xiangbao sat alone all day, without eating anything, Ziruo persuaded her a few times, as if she hadn't heard.

"What are you thinking, ma'am? It's getting dark. Pushed Xiangbao, Ziruo said.

Xiangbao Muran looked up, then got up and went back to the room.

The husband dealt with the matter at hand, and went directly to the Drunken Moon Pavilion.

"Madame is asleep?"

"Hmm." Ziruo thought for a while, and then said, "Today's lady is weird. ”

"Huh?" The husband's footsteps paused slightly.

"In the morning, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince came down, and then the lady sat in a daze for a day, and she ignored anything."

"What did the prince say?"

Ziruo told Si Xiang about the process of coming one by one, and the husband frowned slightly, nodded and entered the room.

There was no light in the room, and Xiangbao could be faintly seen lying on the couch, shrunk into a small ball. He took off his robe and lay down, reaching out and taking her into his arms.

She lay in his arms, not moving.

After being annoyed by Wu Zixu for a day, he was extremely tired, and he also closed his eyes and fell asleep. Just as he was about to fall asleep, a small cold hand silently slipped into his clothes and pressed against his chest, and the other little hand crept up his neck and hooked it.

In the darkness, he opened his eyes, his gaze burning.

The woman in her arms apparently didn't notice, she shuddered and untied his belt, pulled open the thin single coat, her soft lips touched his chest, and his breath became slightly rapid.

"Are you seducing the widow?" A low voice sounded in the dark night, with a certain restrained hoarseness.

He lifted his hand to touch her face, and felt her face burn incredibly, and he could almost imagine her blushing face.

Pushing his hand away, Xiangbao retracted into the quilt and covered it tightly.

He chuckled, but he soon stopped laughing......

When Xiangbao dragged the quilt into his arms again, he touched the creamy skin, like a newborn baby. As if she was afraid that her fire would not be lit enough, she moved slightly.

He smiled bitterly, in fact, she didn't have to be like this, he had endured it very hard for three months.

It's just that she...... It's an anomaly today.

Seeing that he didn't move, she gritted her teeth, her slender hand slid all the way, he gasped and glared at her in disbelief, but unfortunately in the dark, he couldn't see anything clearly.

"What are you doing?" Wheezing slightly, his voice was dangerous.

She doesn't squeak. He gritted his teeth and picked her up.

"Don't you want me?" In the darkness, she suddenly whispered.

He frowned.

"Why?" She looked up, as if looking at him.

He couldn't see her expression clearly, only felt her cool hair brushing against the back of his hand.

"Afraid of me...... Pregnant with your child? She spoke quietly.

He froze.

"What do you want to say?" His voice was tense.

"Zheng Dan's miscarriage is because of you, right?"

He did not deny it.

"What about me? Is it really because of Yun Ji? She added.

He still didn't deny it, he couldn't deny it.

"Do you want children that much?" After a while, he suddenly said.

Xiangbao was stunned, she didn't think about this problem, she was just simply angry, angry at his deception, as for the child......

"Ahh Before she could think about it, he pierced her hard, and she couldn't help but exclaim, "You ......"

He hugged her tightly and buried his head in her neck: "You shouldn't tease my ......" he whispered in her ear, his breath burning and his voice hoarse.

Xiangbao wants to cry without tears, this is the legendary self-inflicted sin......

When Ziruo came in early the next morning, she saw Xiangbao lying on the couch alone, looking at the roof in a daze.

"Ziruo ......" Xiangbao suddenly spoke, and turned his face blankly.

"Yes." Ziruo hurriedly answered.

"I'm so uncomfortable." She opened her mouth and said.

Seeing her expression, Ziruo was a little unbearable, and she didn't know how to answer for a while. Fortunately, Xiangbao didn't say anything more, just lay quietly.

For two months, the husband never came again.
