One hundred and six

  The maid was frightened by his sudden change and her legs went soft, hearing his last sharp and frightening word, she hastily retreated.

  Luo Ming had been following behind him, knowing that his master was in a bad mood and hadn't made a sound. Seeing his master suddenly get angry, he finally plucked up the courage to step forward and carefully said: "Master, perhaps it's because you didn't come back last night that Miss Liu is angry."

  Xia Li Xuan narrowed her eyes and gazed deeply at the door. Would she?

  She might have in the past, but now...

  "Your Highness, I've heard that pregnant women tend to have bad tempers. Why don't you calm down and coax Miss Liu instead? It's said that women need to be coaxed, if you continue to quarrel with Miss Liu, it will definitely not be good for the young master in her belly." Luo Ming spoke up, his words a bit insincere.

  He didn't want these two people to have any more problems either. For Miss Liu, he was the most tired in these few months.

  The king obviously cares about Miss Liu the most, but he just doesn't know how to be gentle with her.

  He really couldn't help but say a few words after losing his patience.

  Xia Liwen's thick eyebrows were tightly furrowed. He knew he couldn't quarrel with her, but that woman was more stubborn than a cow and fiercer than a tiger. If it weren't for the fact that she was pregnant, he would have pinned her to the bed and given her a good scolding long ago.

  "Luo Ming, what should this king do?" For this dead woman, he has almost lost all his face!

  Luo Ming was asked, first stunned, then suddenly laughed and said: "Your Highness, I told you not to get angry."

  "Speak." The man's face was full of impatience.

  "Your Highness, Miss Liu hasn't eaten yet, she must be waiting for you to feed her personally. If not, I'll go get some food and bring it over. Your Highness can take the opportunity to coax her, don't let our little young master go hungry."

  Upon hearing this, Xia Lixuan's face sank slightly. Who dares feed her?

  Let's not say he has never served a woman, even if he is willing to put down his dignity for the sake of his son and serve her, would she accept it?

  That time he gave her some dishes, she threw them all away...

  But the situation in front of him forced Xia Lixun to compromise, and after thinking for a moment, he raised his hand and waved: "Hurry up and do what Zhang Yuanyi said!"

  ……

  The door was pushed open by someone, and Liu Xuelan leaned against the headboard without even lifting an eyelid.

  Her stomach was growling with hunger, but she didn't want to talk to anyone.

  A pair of big black boots appeared in her eyes, she blinked her long eyelashes and turned her head.

  The woman leaning against the bedside was wearing a white undergarment, with black hair draped over her shoulders, a plain face and a pale complexion, clean yet filled with despair. Just looking at her made Xia Lixuan feel somewhat uncomfortable.

  These days, I don't know how she's been getting by. After that hug yesterday, he felt that she had lost more than just a little weight. Her originally plump body suddenly seemed to have its flesh carved away, leaving only skin and bones.

  His face is no longer round and smooth, his skin tone is no longer rosy, even his breath has changed, it's dull and heavy, every time he looks at him, he feels a sharp pain in his eyes, heart and whole body.

  He put the food tray in his hand on the bedside table, sat down beside Liu Xue Lan and stretched out his hand to touch her tentatively. Seeing that she didn't react, he suddenly picked her up and placed her on his lap. Perhaps afraid that she would struggle, he held her tightly at first. But seeing that she still had no reaction, he relaxed a bit.

  This was the first time the two had such an intimate hug.

  Everyone felt somewhat uneasy and afraid of quarreling, so no one had ever spoken a word.

  Liu Xue Lan only wanted to see what he was going to do, but unexpectedly he suddenly made this move, sitting on his leg, she felt that his leg was like it was covered in thorns, making her whole body feel uncomfortable.

  "Let me go!" she commanded sternly after a moment of silence.

  Xia Li Xuan's face turned cold, and the brief good mood she had just had was almost ruined by her icy words. Nowadays, she is like a porcupine, with thorns all over her body, easily pricking people, and the more she pricks, the more energetic she becomes.

  "I can let you go, but don't think about causing me any trouble, got it?" He said in a lowered tone, facing her cold expression.

  Liu Xuelan turned her head away, looking like she didn't want to talk to him.

  She had been hungry for a day and night, and she was already starving, how could she have the energy and mood to quarrel with him.

  Although reluctant, Xia Lixuan saw that she was much calmer than the day before, thought for a moment, and finally put her on the bed, putting a pillow behind her back.

  Then she picked up a delicate porcelain bowl from the dish beside her and scooped out a spoonful of the nutritious rice porridge specially made for her.

  His handsome face was tense, his eyes fixed tightly on her face, as if he feared she would again use her hands to overturn the bowl like yesterday, and there was a deep guard at the bottom of his eyes.

  He brought the spoon to her lips, he didn't say a word, knowing she would understand for sure.

  Liu Xue Lan was taken aback, but at the same time she was also startled by his actions. Looking at the spoon under her eyelids, she was momentarily stunned and couldn't react for a moment. She hadn't expected him to feed her with his own hands!

  Just now outside the door, she heard what he said to his subordinates, but didn't think that this man would really do as others said.

  She raised her hand and wanted to grab the bowl from his hands.

  Xia Li Xun had been deeply wary of her from the start, and he quickly dodged, his face growing even colder.

  "Hurry up and eat!" He brought the spoon back to her lips, with an expression that brooked no argument. Who knew if this woman would knock it over again? He kept telling himself not to get angry with her, she had his child in her belly.

  Liu Xue Lan was starving, truly starving. She was so hungry that she didn't even want to talk to him.

  She opened her mouth and swallowed the spoonful of porridge without hesitation, gulping it down in one swift motion. Since he wanted to feed her, she'd let him feed her till she was full! She had ended up like this today all because of his doing, so even if she tortured him to death, it would be what he deserved!

  Xia Li Xuan was stunned for a moment, seemingly not expecting her to be so cooperative, it was completely beyond his expectations. He thought to himself if he would have to quarrel with her again.

  He suddenly and stealthily curled up the corner of his lips, and quickly scooped another spoonful to her lips. Although his movements looked a bit clumsy, even inconsistent with his noble temperament. But he did it carefully, staring at her face for a moment, then staring at the porridge in the bowl.

  In no time, a bowl of porridge was downed. Liu Xue Lan just wanted to lift her hand to wipe her mouth.

  Suddenly a large hand gently touched her lips before she could react, and the warm fingertips grazed her lip corners.

  "Do you want to eat more?" He asked subconsciously.

  Liu Xue Lan turned her head away, shrinking back into the bed and refusing to give him a straight look. Actually, just now, she hadn't given him a straight look either.

  "...felt frustrated again, and the man's face turned cold. Was this woman going to use him and then turn her back on him?"

  He put the food tray on the table and walked back to the bed, sat down at the edge of the bed with a gloomy face, staring at her with a sinister gaze.

  "Get out!" Having sensed that he had no intention of leaving, Liu Xue Lan finally couldn't help but speak up and drive him away. She didn't want to be with him!

  "This is the king's room." He gritted his teeth in reminder.

  Her eyelashes fluttered, and Liu Xue Lan suddenly got out of bed.

  Just passing by his side, he was suddenly hugged around the waist and picked up.

  "Lan Er, shall we talk?"

  Wrapped in his almost tyrannical embrace, Liu Xue Lan coldly stared at him: "Don't call out like that, it's disgusting. Is 'Xue Lan' what you're calling?"

  "You!" Xia Lixun almost spat out a mouthful of blood. If that little white face can call him like that, why can't he?!

  "There's nothing good to talk about between us." Liu Xuelan added another sentence immediately.

  Xia Liwen gritted her teeth. Endure! For the sake of the child in her womb, he would first record this debt for her and wait until she gave birth to see how he would deal with her!

  Thinking of his son, he suddenly got up and walked straight out of the house door.

  Watching his sudden departure, Liu Xue Lan didn't know what he was going to do either. Her eyes were fixed on the door, and sure enough, a certain man quickly returned, even carrying a bowl in his hand.

  "Drink the medicine." He sat back down on the edge of the bed and handed her the bowl, but his eyes were wary as he looked at the woman.

  Liu Xuelan puffed out her cheeks and turned her head away. She knew exactly what this bowl of medicine was.

  "Listen, drink the medicine and I won't bother you." For the first time, the man made a concession, although with conditions, but at least he relaxed his tone.

  Liu Xue Lan still shook her head. She believed no one would believe him!

  "Listen, drink the medicine, or I'll feed it to you by mouth." He thought this method was still okay. If that dead woman dared to knock over his food again, he would use his mouth to feed her everything from now on. Let's see if she still dares to defy him.

  Upon hearing this, Liu Xue Lan furrowed her brow and glared at him with gritted teeth. She roughly snatched the bowl in front of her away from him.

  The medicine in the bowl was black and emitted a foul odor. She had originally intended to drink it down to get rid of the man, but smelling the foul-smelling medicine, she suddenly lost her courage. She had already been made like this by the man, why should she still help him have children?

  At the thought of herself not being able to hold her head up in the future, and even her child being a wild seed, her eyes suddenly turned red, and big teardrops fell directly into the bowl filled with medicinal liquid.

  Xia Li Xun's whole body was tense, highly strung as he stared at her.

  As he watched her, she suddenly burst into tears again, the kind of silent and soundless sobbing. Suddenly, his heart was fiercely pinched again, and at this time, the medicine bowl was suddenly stuffed back into his hands by the woman. He subconsciously quickly held it with both hands, like holding a treasure, afraid of spilling it.

  "Get out, I won't drink this medicine." With tears streaming down her face, Liu Xue Lan decided to confront him once again. Her red-rimmed eyes finally willing to meet his gaze, she saw the tension in his deep eyes and told herself it was all just an illusion. She began to speak coldly again.

  "Emperor De, I've said it before, the man I want will give me a life of monogamy. The child I want must also be legitimate. If not, I'd rather spend my whole life alone than have my child be called a bastard at birth!"

  "What's with the wild seed? Xia Lixuan placed the bowl heavily to one side, his face cold as he pulled her into his arms. Pinching her chin, he lifted her head up, his eyes blazing with intense anger, his voice low and menacing: "Even if you want him to be a wild seed, it's still up to me to agree or not! Liu Xuehan, listen well, as long as you give birth to my child, I'll agree to anything you want! Even if it's monogamy, I'll grant it to you! But if you try to escape from me again, I swear I won't let you off the hook! Did you hear that?!"

  "......?!?" Liu Xue Lan suddenly froze. The next second she stared at him with wide eyes, disbelieving, "Y-you said what?"

  He said he was willing to give her a monogamous life?

  What? How is this possible?

  If he were willing, he would have agreed long ago.

  She curled her lips and sneered with a smile, but the smile still carried a strong crying tone.

  "You, with the surname Xia, think carefully before speaking. You know who I, Liu Xue Lan, am and what will happen if you deceive me. Now, for the sake of the child in my belly, you can say anything, but please don't be so disgusting. Monogamy? Do you even know what monogamy is? If I'm not mistaken, Prince Feng De's harem will soon be filled with wives and concubines. Don't you feel ashamed and ridiculous saying 'monogamy'?"

  "Ah..." Xia Lixun took a deep breath, closing his eyes to cover up the hint of regret at the bottom of them. Did this count as lifting a rock only to drop it on one's own foot?

  Liu Boyu had once told him that she would not humiliate herself for the sake of a concubine position, and would rather become a nun than share a man with other women. He didn't take Liu Boyu's words to heart at all. He just thought it was Liu Boyu trying to secure a position for his own daughter, so in the past month or more, he had searched every corner of the capital city, but never went to the temple.

  If he hadn't spread so many pictures before, if she wasn't pregnant, maybe she would have spent her whole life in the temple. If these were placed in the past, he wouldn't believe that she could do this at all. In his heart, Liu Xue Lan was too careless and didn't seem like a woman, those vegetarian Buddhist things weren't something Liu Xue Lan could do.

  However, after learning about her in Qing Luan, he believed it!

  She believed Liu Boyu's previous warning and also believed the woman's determination. The hatred and desperation she showed were not pretentious, nor were they intended to elicit his sympathy; she was truly determined to cut ties with him, truly wanting to walk out of his life.

  All her performances were so resolute, so decisive and ruthless. He didn't dare to hesitate anymore, she had escaped twice, he didn't have the courage to go all in with her again to see who would give in first...

  He took in all the mockery on her face with his eyes, and his heart was so annoyed that it felt like he had eaten a lot of bitter medicine, and even his intestines felt unbearably bitter.

  "Whether you believe it or not, listen to me carefully. During this period of time, you are not allowed to go anywhere. Stay here obediently and quietly. One month later, I will let you marry into the Feng De Wang Fu with great fanfare! There won't be any other women, only you!" He spoke slowly, word by word, extremely solemnly, as if afraid she wouldn't hear him clearly.

  His sudden seriousness and determination made Liu Xue feel like it was an illusion. After being stunned for a moment, she shook off the hand that was holding her chin, turned her head to one side, and said lightly and indifferently: "Sorry, I never said I'd marry you."

  At these words, Xia Lixun almost vomited a pool of blood. His pupils dilated, and he let out a low roar: "If you don't marry me, who else can you marry? Are you still thinking of marrying that pretty boy? Liu Xuehan, you'd better be clear about this - I'm your man! I'm the father of the child in your belly! If you dare to sneak around with other men behind my back again, I'll definitely kill you!"

  As for the man in front of her, Liu Xue Lan knew him all too well. Even though this man was very violent and had a bad temper, he would never use such foul language to scold people. For him, swearing was something only rough men did, and as a noble prince, he would never behave like those coarse people.

  Is there anyone who can tell her what kind of madness this man is suffering from? He even scolded her for several sentences!

  The man's roar pierced her ears, she tried to push him away, and with a fierce gaze, she shouted: "Xia, do you still want to have any face? When I pursued you in the past, how did you treat me? I wanted to let go of you, but you actually turned around and entangled me. Are you not afraid that people all over the world will laugh at you for doing this? I, Liu Xue Lan, may be lowly, may be scolded as a wild child, a bastard, but I am also human, not a commodity, can't be wanted or humiliated at will!"

  "Liuxue Lan!" Xia Lixun couldn't help but roar again, noticing that the woman was also losing control as he did. He took a few deep breaths, trying to calm himself down. With one swift motion, he wrapped his arms around her and pulled her tightly against his chest. Suddenly, in a low, gentle voice, he whispered into her ear: "Lan'er, I'm sorry... forget about those past grievances? If you feel that those years were unfair, I'll make it up to you. You've been chasing me for so many years, I'll repay you double, triple... no, I'll give you ten times seven years!"

  He himself didn't know how he said those words, but after saying them, he found out that it was actually just that simple...

  "...such a person, was someone Liu Xue Lan had never met before. When did this man become so humble and flattering in his speech? He even said such corny words. At this moment, she was shocked in her heart, and also felt extremely surprised."

  Seventy years? He's good with his mouth. If he treats her well for seven days, she'll be satisfied.

  Tears fell out again without knowing it.

  "Lan Er?!" Having spoken for half a day, almost exhausting all the good words he had to say in this lifetime, yet the woman still showed no reaction. Xia Li Xun couldn't help but start getting impatient again.

  "Get out, I want to be alone for a while." Today's him was too strange, so strange that she didn't know what to do.

  "Alright, I'll leave." Xia Lixun didn't dare to pressure her anymore. He had already retreated so many steps, and taking another step back now meant nothing to him. As long as he could make this woman change her mind, he was willing to do anything. He had even given away the iron mine, what else did he have that he couldn't bear to part with?

  "But you have to drink the medicine first." He let her go, and then he picked up the bowl of medicine again and handed it to her lips. His other hand lifted to wipe away her tears.

  Closing her eyes, Liu Xue Lan took a few deep breaths and finally accepted the bowl of medicine, tilting her head back and drinking it all in one gulp.

  As he closed the door, Xia Lixun stood at the entrance with some reluctance. But he was clear in his mind that this woman wouldn't be swayed by gentle means, and he couldn't afford to confront her again now, or else she would become fierce once more.

  He thought of some things he hadn't done yet, hesitated for a moment, and finally left with big strides.

  Just as his tall figure disappeared from the gate, a bright and beautiful woman walked out from the corner of the corridor. The woman had a beautiful face, swaying her slender waist, step by step towards that tightly closed door.

  Heir of the Wang Clan

  Today is a fine day, Bai Xinzhen finally got half a day off and sunbathed in the yard after lunch.

  Four eunuchs from the palace, as she requested, left only one, with the surname Gong, around 50 years old. It is said that he entered the palace at the age of 12, and his time in the palace was even longer than the current emperor's reign, making him the most senior person in the palace.

  The nanny I personally selected, Bai Xin, is trustworthy. After a few days of observation, this nanny Gong still satisfies her, unlike those nannies on TV who only know how to gossip and speak ill of others behind their backs. On the contrary, Nanny Gong speaks very little, but when she does, she is very measured in her words, and what she says is very down-to-earth, without trying to curry favor or relying on her seniority to show off.

  Since Gong Yiyi arrived, Bai Xinyan arranged fewer tasks for Xueying. Moreover, she intentionally gave Xueying and Yin Du more time to cultivate their feelings, so in recent days, most of the time was spent with Gong Yiyi accompanying her.

  She is now lying on the chaise longue, sunbathing, while Old Lady Gong sits beside her on a soft cushion, embroidering clothes for the baby.

  Xue Ying was also by her side, guarding her as she ate melons and fruits.

  Not very familiar with Gong Nainai, Bai Xiner naturally chose to talk to Blood Shadow.

  "Blood Shadow, the prince let you handle your own wedding, how's the preparation going?" It wasn't that they were being petty as masters, but rather she intentionally didn't give them anything to prepare. Blood Shadow was originally apathetic towards sex, and she hoped that through these processes, she would come to realize that marriage is a big deal and it's best to take matters into one's own hands. If you don't even take it seriously yourself, how can it work?

  Upon hearing her question, Blood Shadow was momentarily stunned, then lowered his head and replied in a very calm tone: "Replying to the princess, I am not yet prepared."

  This answer is within Bai Xin's expectation.

  She turned her head, raised an eyebrow and looked over, taking the opportunity to size Blood Shadow up from head to toe: "Others are busy to death when they get married, do you plan on getting married like this?"

  "...?" The Blood Shadow lowered her head and stopped speaking. A moment later, she suddenly asked very calmly: "Princess, what should I prepare for?"

  "......" Bai Xin's face turned pale and her lips twitched slightly. It seemed that she didn't want to help but had no choice now...

  She lived in the White Mansion before her marriage, and all the dowry was prepared by Mrs. Zhang of the White Mansion. After all, she was still a useless person in the eyes of outsiders at that time, so it was impossible for her to prepare these things herself. It is said that other women have to embroider a decent embroidery for themselves when they get married, but because she is a "useless person", those handicrafts are also exempt.

  It's a bit too much to ask someone who can't move without cutting people's throats with a knife to embroider flowers.

  Just as she was thinking about how to get Blood Shadow to prepare the dowry, Gong Yiyi, who was quietly embroidering a small dress beside her, suddenly spoke up.

  "Your Highness, I suppose Miss Blood Shadow is also unfamiliar with these formalities. Why don't let me help her?"

  Upon hearing this, Bai Xin's eyes lit up and she turned her head: "Since Madam Gong is willing to help, then I'll thank her on behalf of Blood Shadow first."

  Gong hurriedly stood up and saluted her respectfully: "Your Highness is too kind, I am unworthy of such treatment."

  Bai Xincheng waved his hand at her. Turning back, she looked at Xuexue and asked, "The wedding dress has been made by Auntie Gong for you, what about the other things? How do you plan to prepare?"

  His face was as calm and cold as usual, but his eyes suddenly showed a hint of confusion.

  At the sight of her like that, Bai Xincheng couldn't help but want to scratch his head.

  A glimpse of light caught a person running from afar, and she suddenly smiled slightly.

  "Your Highness." Yin Du walked over and stood still, a hint of a flattering smile on his clean and handsome face.

  "You're just in time." Bai Xinzhi beckoned to him and then pointed at Blood Shadow: "Hurry up and take your future daughter-in-law away. You're about to get married, but you haven't even made any preparations. Hurry up and take her out onto the streets, ask her what she needs, and then buy it back."

  Yin Du raised her eyes and took a look at the woman with no expression on her face across from her, letting out a somewhat helpless sigh.

  "Your Highness, I'll take care of the dowry from now on. Blood Shadow doesn't understand these things, I'll make sure to prepare everything properly for her."

  Bai Xin nodded in satisfaction and raised an eyebrow at Xue Ying: "Look, look, your future husband is so good to you?"

  "......?!" A faint black line fell from Xue Ying's forehead.

  "Alright, there's nothing else for me to do here. Hurry up and follow Yin Du out, if you need anything just tell him and he'll buy it for you." She knew Yin Du had money, after all his monthly salary wasn't low, so the money for marrying a wife should be manageable too?

  "Yes." Xue Ying responded respectfully. His expression was as serious as if he were receiving an order, without a hint of joy or celebration for his own major life event.

  Yin Du followed her out, being careful to keep a small distance between them. The way they left, one in front of the other, made Bai Xindian shake his head and want to smile as he watched them go.

  I've never seen anyone date like this before.

  As she turned around, she was ready to continue basking in the sun. Suddenly, a figure leaped out from the high wall opposite her and flew quickly towards her.

  "Ah - come quickly! Catch the assassin!" Old Lady Gong's sharp eyes spotted the flying figure, and she hastily stood up, shouting loudly.

  "Xīn rǎn!" The newcomer landed and stood beside Bái Xīnrǎn with a wronged expression. Seeing the guards quickly gathering from afar, he hastily leaned in towards Bái Xīnrǎn.

  Bai Xin's face turned pale and she felt a lump in her throat. Aiya Ma, she almost scared her soul away.

  It wasn't the sudden appearance of this young girl that startled her, but rather being nearly frightened by Old Lady Gong's shrill cry. She hadn't expected that at her age, Old Lady Gong would still have such a strong voice.

  "Ah, Gong Niangniang, she's my friend, come to the mansion to see me." Calming down from the shock, she smiled at Gong Niangniang and said, "I have some words to exchange with this young lady, why don't you head back to your room first?"

  Xue Lian suddenly appeared, she knew there must be something going on. Although Gong Yaoyao was now living in the Cheng Wang Fu, after all, she still wasn't someone who could be trusted, and in her heart, she was somewhat guarded.

  "Your Highness, you're alone here..." Gongsao was clearly uneasy.

  "Bai Xin interrupted her by raising his hand: 'It's alright, there are guards everywhere, I won't be walking around casually.'"

  She raised her eyes and looked at the guards around her, raising her voice: "Miss Liu is an acquaintance, you all know her, go down."

  "Yes!" The guards responded in unison and immediately returned to their posts. Liu Xue Lan had stayed here for a period of time, so the guards were not unfamiliar with her, and she also felt at ease.

  Madam Gong saw the reaction of the guard, it was clear that Bai Xincheng had not deceived her. This suddenly appearing young lady seemed to be a frequent visitor here. So she didn't say anything else and just bowed and retreated.

  "Your Highness, I'll take my leave first. If you have any orders, don't hesitate to summon me."

  "Hmm." Bai Xincheng nodded at her.

  Seeing Gong Lao Lao leave, she waited until she saw her walking towards the back house before turning around. She then got up from the chaise longue with an excited face and gave Liu Xue Lan a big hug.

  "You're driving me crazy!"

  "Xīn rǎn." Liǔ Xuě Lán huí bào zhe tā, yī liǎn de qiàn yì, "duì bù qǐ, wǒ bù cí ér bié ràng nǐ dān xīn le."

  Translation:

  "Heart stained." Liu Xue Lan hugged her back, with a face full of apology, "Sorry, I left without saying goodbye and made you worry."

  Bai Xin shook her head: "You're fine, that's all I care about. What I was worried about was something happening to you outside. I had Wang Ye send people to look for you for a long time, but there wasn't any news at all. Honestly, it was infuriating."

  She pushed Liu Xue Lan away a bit, looking at the obviously thinner face in front of her, and reached out to touch it: "What's going on? You've lost so much weight and gotten darker too."

  Liu Xuelan stiffly smiled.

  Bai Xinzhen pulled her down to sit together, although there was only one chaise longue, but it could still accommodate two slender women like them.

  "Xin Ran, how...?" Liu Xue Lan looked at her with a serious face, "How come your complexion is so poor?"

  Bai Xin smiled and rubbed her belly, "It's all because of this little guy, every day I'm almost tortured to the point of being inhuman." After that, she looked at Liu Xue Shan from head to toe, finally fixing her gaze on her belly, and said with a hint of meaning, "Your complexion isn't very good either."

  Upon hearing this, Liu Xue Lan lowered her head and after a long while, softly said: "I have too."

  "I know." The sudden aura emanating from her body made Bai Xincheng hastily grasp both of her hands. Such a gloomy and despondent aura shouldn't belong to someone who's about to become a mother, and as a woman, she knew what Liu Xuelan was thinking in her heart.

  The arrival of this child must have given her quite a blow, right?

  "Right, weren't you at Prince Feng's residence? Did he let you out?" She quickly shifted her gaze and changed the subject.

  As soon as someone was mentioned, Liu Xue Lan indeed became 'excited'. Although it was just an excited atmosphere, it was still better than the dead silence from before.

  All she saw was her gritting her teeth and cursing: "That disgusting bastard! I never want to see him again!"

  After scolding her, she suddenly looked at Bai Xindye with a pleading expression: "Xindye, can I stay here for a few more days?"

  Bai Xin's eyes twitched at the corner of his mouth. Indeed, these two people together would never calm down. Neither of them was willing to give up until one of them died.

  But she was curious about what had happened to these two people.

  "Xue Lian, has that scoundrel bullied you again? You're pregnant now, don't get angry so easily, it's not good for the baby. If he dares to bully you during this time, I won't let him off either."

  Liu Xuelan shook her head, and her expression suddenly became ferocious: "That son of a bitch, I'll kill him sooner or later!"

  Seeing this, Bai Xinzhen became somewhat anxious and looked at her very seriously: "What exactly happened?"

  Xue Lan clenched her fists: "Xin Ran, you don't know, those women in his mansion are so disgusting! They took advantage of him not being around to come to my room and threaten me, even calling me a slut and a fox spirit!"

  “……”

  "The old lady was so angry that she beat up a woman on the spot."

  ...... Bai Xin's mouth twitched at the corner of her lips.

  "Those cheap people saw me fighting and actually joined forces to teach me a lesson. I was so angry that I took them all down at once!"

  "... Bai Xin had already become a black line, and she didn't know what to say anymore. She indeed admired Xue Lan's temperament, but she was pregnant now, wasn't she afraid that such violence would affect the fetus?"

  "Xue Leng, you... are you okay?" couldn't help but worry about her belly, Bai Xincheng pointed at her belly.

  "It's nothing!" Liu Xuelan shook her head stubbornly. "Anyway, I wasn't planning on keeping this child. If something really happens, I'd be more than happy to get rid of it!"

  Bai Xin's heart was shocked. She had never thought that Liu Xue Lan actually didn't want this child.

  Does she know how important this child is?

  Even a non-ancient person like her knows that here, only women with children can eat, if a woman doesn't give birth to children, she's considered defective and will be discriminated against. Moreover, the child in her belly, once born, won't have an ordinary status. How could she bear to abandon it?

  What about King Feng De? Doesn't he want children either?

  The current Fengde Wangfu

  Xia Li Xun's face was iron-green, and his aura filled the entire hall. Looking at the women kneeling in the hall, he gritted his teeth and almost bit someone on the spot.

  "Who gave you the guts to provoke her?!" A loud roar echoed through the spacious hall.

  On the ground, six beauties were crying and wailing, each with a bruised nose and swollen face, as pitiful as could be. Originally, they had wanted to find some men to complain to about their grievances, but instead, they ended up provoking the men into a fierce rage. In an instant, the several beauties were so frightened that they lost all color in their faces, and didn't even dare cry out loud anymore.

  "Who gave you the guts to provoke her?!" Xia Lixun roared again, his anger uncontrollable. He had just managed to bring that woman back with great difficulty, and he had only left for half an hour, yet something like this happened.

  Just thinking about that woman being pregnant and still physically violent, he now even has the heart to kill.

  These cheap people are so ignorant and dare to go in front of her to stir up trouble, it's really infuriating!

  The women were so frightened that they couldn't say a word. Each one was wronged and pitiful, yet trembling with fear, not daring to speak out.

  "Someone come!" Disdainfully sweeping a glance over the women on the ground, Xia Lixun directly shouted loudly towards the outside of the hall.

  "Your Highness." Several guards entered from outside.

  "Drag these cheap women out and throw them away! Don't let them set foot in the Fong De Wang Fu again, if anyone disobeys, cut off their legs for me directly!"

  "Yes!" The guard ordered, and was about to move forward to seize him.

  "Your Highness, spare my life!" Finally, the woman reacted to what the man had said and hastily cried out loudly, "Your Highness, spare my life, I was wrong! I will never dare again!"

  "Spare our lives, Your Majesty!" - one person took the lead and the others followed suit.

  "Spare my life, Your Majesty!"

  “……”

  The hall was filled with the sound of women's wailing. They cried to the heavens, tore their hearts out, and were terrified, making a spectacular scene.

  "Are you waiting for me to behead all of you too?! Why haven't you dragged them out yet?!" Seeing that the guards didn't move forward, Xia Lixun glared at several guards fiercely.

  He lifted his foot and walked out of the hall with a stern face, without any hesitation or lingering attachment.

  "Your Highness, someone saw Miss Liu heading towards the Cheng Wang Fu." Luo Ming followed behind him, knowing his thoughts, and hastily reported.

  "Go! To Cheng Wang Fu!" He walked quickly towards the main gate with a cold face.

  Heir of the Wang Clan

  Bai Xintian felt uncomfortable after listening to Liu Xuelan's account. On the one hand, she was worried about the young girl in front of her, and on the other hand, she thought that a certain man was really not a good thing. He actually allowed his little wife to bully people so recklessly.

  Before that, his family had arranged for him to have several concubines under the surname Qiu, but no matter how arrogant those concubines were, they didn't dare to be too presumptuous.

  Since King Fongde wants to take Xuelan to the Fongde Palace, doesn't he ever think about Xuelan's situation? She has no name or status, not even comparable to a lowly concubine, and is even threatened by everyone. If it were her, she wouldn't just hit people, she might even kill!

  "Xue Lian, don't worry, you can stay here as long as you want. I'll talk to Wang Ye about it later. The most important thing now is for you to take care of your body and not exert yourself too much, understand?"

  As soon as the child was mentioned, Liu Xuelan suddenly lowered her head again, remained silent for a long time, and then said in a low voice: "Xinran, I don't want this child. Can you help me get rid of it?"

  She had bought those two abortion pills but hadn't had time to take them before that man brought her back. Now she doesn't have a single copper coin on her, and it's impossible for her to buy the abortion pills anyway. Moreover, deep down, she is still a bit afraid and hopes someone can be by her side, just in case something unexpected happens and they can help out. And the only person she really trusts is Xinzhi...

  "Liu Xuelan! You have guts, say it again!"

  Bai Xin was about to speak when a loud angry shout cut him off.

  A man with a murderous aura walked towards this side, his face was iron-green, his eyes were crimson red, and there wasn't a single spot on him that didn't make people's hearts tremble with fear.

  Oh no! This is clearly a rhythm of devouring people...

  She came to her senses and stood up, blocking Liu Xue Lan behind her, taking the anger of a certain man for Liu Xue Lan.

  "What is King Fengde doing? We, the Wang Mansion, are not a place for fighting... Ugh..." As the murderous figure approached, Bai Xindai's words were cut off as she suddenly buried her head and vomited.

  The fruit I just ate was wasted in an instant...

  Watching the woman's movements, and the filthy things that kept coming out of her mouth, Xia Lixun immediately stopped in his tracks. His iron-green face instantly turned black, and the anger in his eyes suddenly turned into disgust.

  "Ugh......" Bai Xincheng couldn't stand the scent of peppermint on him, pinching his neck while raising his hand to stop him from getting closer, "You...you don't come over...ugh..."

  "Xīn rǎn, how are you?" Liu Xue Lan saw the situation and quickly got up to gently pat her back to help her catch her breath. She had a similar reaction too, it's just that hers wasn't very obvious. She didn't expect Xin Ran to have such a big reaction.
