Helen Burns was dying

  Xia Li Xun narrowed his eyes, looking like he couldn't take it anymore and was about to explode. But seeing his woman right in front of him, he suppressed the disgust in his heart, took a few steps forward, and quickly grabbed Liu Xue Lan into his arms while she was comforting Bai Xin Ran and didn't notice him.

  "Come back with me!" He said in a deep voice, with a commanding tone.

  Liu Xuelan wanted to shake off the hand grasping her wrist, but he was holding too tightly and she couldn't shake him off. Looking at the man in front of her with his hair standing on end, she gritted her teeth and restrained herself from fighting back, her voice icy as she said: "Let go!"

  "Come back with me!" The man said again.

  Liu Xue Lan now wants to get rid of him, so she doesn't care about being polite. Some words have been stuck in her heart and are uncomfortable, it's better to say them out loud, also good for letting this man roll far away.

  "Feng De Wang wants me to go back where? I have a home, if I want to go back, I will go back myself. As for your place, I am just a humble wild child, how can I go to such a noble place? I Liu Xue Lan haven't stooped low enough to go and see another woman's face."

  Next to him was a woman vomiting, and Xia Lixun felt like he was about to vomit too. Of course, he knew why this woman had run out - wasn't it those women?!

  He suddenly swept her up in his arms and strode out.

  "Listen, come back with me, don't make trouble for me. Once we're back, you can do whatever you want. I've already chased those women away and they won't appear again." He could only follow her thoughts to coax her back now.

  "Xia's surname! Don't be so shameless, okay? With your kind of place, I think it's dirty!" She was tied up and scolded loudly by Liu Xue Lan.

  Xia Li Xun ignored her, his face as dark as it could get, but he didn't dare continue making a scene with her.

  "I'll drive them out! Once I get back, I'll drive all of them out! Not a single one will be left!" He declared resolutely as he strode towards the main gate of Cheng Wang Fu.

  Liu Xuelan was really put in a difficult position by his shameless and thick-skinned behavior. Originally, she still had many things to say to Bai Xindian, but as a result of this man's meddling, they had just met for a short while before having to part ways again.

  "Let me go, Xia's surname!"

  Xia Lixun pretended not to hear it and took even bigger strides.

  Hearing the commotion outside, Gong Ya rushed out to take a look and saw Bai Xinzhen squatting on the ground, vomiting so much that she could hardly stand up. She quickly went over to help Bai Xinzhen catch her breath and also ordered a guard to go and summon Wang Ye back.

  "Your Highness, let me help you back to your room." Seeing that Bai Xincheng had calmed down a bit, Gong Yayi quickly helped her up and walked towards the bedroom.

  Bai Xin's face was pale, and she had just vomited too much. She didn't even have time to say anything to Xue Leng. Originally, there were many words of advice she wanted to offer, but none of them had the opportunity to be spoken. However, looking at Feng De Wang's expression, it seemed that he was quite concerned about the child, and surely he wouldn't let Xue Leng abort the baby.

  Now she can't go persuade Xuelan either, and can only hope that he will work harder.

  "Grandma Gong, I'm fine now. I just want to lie down and rest for a while." She kicked off her shoes and sat on the bed, Bai Xintian lay down very naturally.

  "Should I go and prepare some plain congee for the princess?" Gong YaYa covered her with a quilt, looking at her extremely pale face, and said with concern. Having served many concubines in the palace, she had never seen such a big reaction before. No wonder the emperor was anxious about this in the palace, it's not surprising, just looking at her made her heart tremble.

  Fortunately, Princess Wang has a strong willpower, if it were another woman, she would have cried and made a fuss long ago.

  Not long after Gong's departure, the door was opened again. Hearing the familiar footsteps, Bai Xintong turned his head to look over.

  "Weren't you supposed to come back later? Why so early?"

  Yan Mo sat beside her, holding the hand she had placed on the quilt in his palm, and found that her hand was a bit cold. He quickly used his warm palms to rub hers.

  He gazed at her with deep concern: "I was worried about you, so I came back early. How are you feeling? Are you in a lot of pain? Where's Dr. Zhang? Why didn't he come to take a look?"

  Looking at her pale and weak little face, he asked a string of questions.

  Bai Xin comforted him with a gentle smile: "I just got a bit stimulated and threw up for a while, it's nothing. I've been throwing up these days, so I'm used to it. I didn't feel anything uncomfortable, so I didn't let anyone call Zhang Yu physician over. It's you who shouldn't be so tense, haven't we said that this is a normal reaction? Maybe after this period of time, it will get better."

  She pulled her hand out of his palm and stroked his handsome face with distinct facial features, smoothing out the wrinkles between his eyebrows.

  Yan Mo let out a sigh. She herself thought this reaction was nothing, but he was nervous every day. Zhang Yu physician privately told him that her body was good at practicing martial arts since childhood, and her muscles and bones were well-trained, otherwise, it would be even more severe now.

  In order not to worry her, he naturally wouldn't tell her these things. Now he has no other thoughts, just hoping she can get through the first few months.

  Gong Ayi quickly brought over the cooked rice porridge, and Bai Xiner had just vomited, her stomach was empty, and the hot porridge went straight into her belly. She felt that she had more energy all over her body.

  When they were left alone in the house again, looking at the man who still had a worried face, she smiled and said: "Okay, I'm fine. Can't you be like this? If you have something to do, hurry up and go, I'll rest for a while."

  He wet his pen and pressed his lips together, but instead of leaving, he kicked off his boots and lay down beside her.

  "You're tired, go sleep first, I'll stay here with you." Now looking at her already makes him heartache, how could he still have the mind to do other things?

  Bai Xin smiled helplessly and said, "I'm not a three-year-old kid, do I need you to guard me while I sleep?" Please, if he remains this tense, before the child is even born, he'll get prenatal depression or something, it's laughable just thinking about it.

  He sat up and took off his outer robe, lying down beside her. He put one arm around her neck, pulling her close to him, and the other hand slipped under the quilt, covering her flat abdomen. Although he had never said a word of concern, his actions and expressions were telling her that he valued her and the child in her belly.

  The warmth in his palm was transmitted to her body through the fabric, which was his silent care, making her entire heart warm up instantly.

  Ever since she had a severe morning sickness, he stopped using incense to dye clothes, and was surrounded by his clean and refreshing scent. At this moment, Bai Xindye only felt that her nose was sour, with an urge to cry.

  In her two lifetimes, she had never experienced a shred of familial love or warmth, but this man gave her the warmth and emotions that she had never felt in both lifetimes.

  This feeling, seemingly simple, yet very deep, penetrated to the deepest part of her heart, filling up the emptiness of her two lifetimes.

  She reached out and touched his rugged face, and the more she touched him, the warmer her heart felt.

  He grasped her hand in his, gazing down at her suddenly bewildered eyes, unsure what she was thinking, but he liked the sparkling look in her eyes as they looked at him, tender and affectionate, a stark contrast to the indifference and nonchalance of their first meeting in Mashan Village.

  His mind wandering, he lowered his head and took her slightly parted lips, taking advantage of her momentary distraction to deepen the kiss.

  Bai Xin was startled by his sudden sneak attack. The unexpected kiss left her momentarily at a loss, and then she followed in his footsteps...

  The most lingering, breathing intertwined, in a narrow space, the atmosphere is warm and beautiful.

  Knowing he can't touch her, Yan Mo also didn't dare to go too far and just teased her with words.

  When they both calmed down a bit, Bai Xintong thought of finding a topic to talk about, otherwise things would really get out of hand and be hard to resolve.

  "Mo Yu, can you find two books for me?" She asked casually, playing with his long and slender fingers.

  "What book is this?"

  Bai Xin's ears suddenly felt a little hot, and her eyes drifted away, not daring to look at her. She wasn't sure if he had seen that kind of thing before, but ancient people needed to learn about 'the way of husband and wife', how could they do it without looking at those kinds of books?

  "Mustard Seed Garden Manual of Painting."

  Four words made him twitch the corner of his mouth, lowering his head to look at the guilty look on her face. Suddenly, the corners of his mouth hooked up, dyeing his cold and handsome face with a few evil charms.

  "What do you want to do? Don't tell me that you're tired of me being too clumsy and didn't let you..."

  Bai Xin hastily covered his mouth, and with a red face, he gave him a glance: "What were you thinking? I just wanted to ask for your help in getting a few books for me to give to Xue Ying."

  Upon hearing this, Yan Mo's forehead had a few black lines. “……”

  "You also know, Blood Shadow is just a block of ice sculpture, we don't have anything good to give her, and if we want to give her something suitable, I thought for a long time, decided to give her a few books, let her have the time to learn by herself." As soon as he said this, Bai Xindian couldn't help but burst out laughing.

  Of course, she wouldn't tell him that she was also very curious about what this ancient forbidden book was like.

  Is there anything exciting?

  From her smile, Yan Mo also saw her nervousness and curiosity, and with a bit of annoyance, pinched her nose and asked directly: "Do you dare say you don't want to see?"

  He saw through her, and Bai Xin's face turned red as she smiled, perhaps too excited, suddenly blurting out: "What can I do? In the past when we were in our place, I watched real performances."

  As she finished speaking, she suddenly saw the man's face gradually turning black.

  "Live performance?" Yan Mo Yu suddenly lifted her chin, her eyes gleaming with a hint of danger.

  "Cough, cough... that... uh..." Bai Xinzhi tried to play dumb, but seeing his increasingly ugly face and rapid movements, he quickly changed the subject, explaining with a mix of coaxing and deception, "The culture in our place is different from yours, after all, it's been separated by several hundred or thousand years. Here, you learn knowledge by reading books, while where we are, people learn knowledge by watching TV."

  He Yan closed his eyes and said: "Learn knowledge by watching TV? What is TV?"

  "The people from our place invented a high-tech product."

  "What's this about a live performance?" Some old man seemed to have great 'interest' in the matter, and instantly turned the topic back around.

  Bai Xin sighed inwardly, this man was not easy to fool at all.

  "Reality shows are where people specifically act as husbands and wives, then someone films it with a camera for those who need to watch and learn. She paused for a moment before adding another sentence, "You have to be at least 18 years old to watch."

  Although it's possible to be struck by lightning for telling lies, what she said isn't a lie. Isn't that how those Japanese adult videos are made? Don't all adults love watching them?

  His deep eyes sparkled as he stared at her small face the size of a palm, and suddenly asked: "How old were you there?"

  Pfft!

  Bai Xin almost spit it out.

  Luckily she wasn't a 40- or 50-year-old middle-aged woman when she crossed over, otherwise she would be totally embarrassed to death now!

  She wondered if she joked with him that she was already fifty years old, would this man immediately divorce her?

  However, she didn't dare say that. This kind of joke can't be said casually, in case he really believed it, and then she would have to cry.

  I am 26 years old.

  Upon hearing this, Yan Mo let out a breath that left no trace, and the deep, mysterious color at the bottom of his eyes faded slightly.

  Luckily...

  Bai Xin didn't want to discuss past events with him anymore, those things had already passed, let alone discussing them again was really meaningless, and she didn't want to go back to her old life either.

  "Are you going to help me get the book or not?"

  "This matter doesn't require your concern, I'll take care of it with Yin and Du." What is this woman thinking? Doesn't she know that he's aware of her intentions? It's clear that she also wants to see. This little seductress, even when pregnant, can't behave herself. If she were to think about it... how would they resolve the situation then?"

  "No way." Bai Xincheng shook his head in refusal, "This matter is not something Yin Du can handle. I'd better teach Blood Shadow myself, lest something unexpected happens when they get married."

  She spoke very seriously, extremely, and utterly seriously.

  She glared at her with a bad temper: "What's it to you that someone else is getting married?"

  Bai Xin said with a sly smile: "I'm doing this for their own good too."

  He bit his lip and clenched his fists at the corners of his mouth. “……”

  Bai Xin glanced at him secretly, and suddenly thought of something. She reached out to hold his face, forcing him to look into her eyes, and seriously looked at the expression on his face. Suddenly, she asked: "Be honest with me, have you ever read that kind of book?"

  "...". He moistened his lips with a faintly trembling gaze.

  "Don't tell me you're hiding and secretly watching those things?"

  “……” Yanmo's handsome face suddenly flushed with an abnormal red glow. He flipped her over and gently pressed her under his body, careful to avoid her stomach. Looking down at her with a hint of a smile in his eyes, "As your husband, I should be the one teaching you, not the other way around."

  Bai Xin playfully punched a small fist on his shoulder: "Pervert!"

  Originally men are all the same, whether in modern times or ancient times, there are always men who are depressed to the extreme.

  She really couldn't imagine the scene of him hiding and reading porn magazines.

  Yan Mo couldn't help but laugh, revealing her pearly whites, smiling brightly and charmingly: "If I don't flirt with you, how can I satisfy you?"

  "......?!?" Bai Xin's eyes rolled silently in exasperation.

  The two of them were chatting and laughing in the room, talking about the most intimate topics between husband and wife...

  Fengde Wangfu

  Liu Xuelan was taken back by Xia Lihuan.

  Xia Lixun's face was always gloomy. After putting the woman on the bed, he didn't say a word, but stared at her with a sinister and resentful gaze.

  This dead woman, what does he need to do to make her completely settle down?

  He will worry himself to death sooner or later with such a fright every day!

  Isn't he going to build a cage and lock her up?

  Liu Xuelan also ignored him, today she had a fight with someone, although she won, but her heart was still aching.

  Who knows how many more women will suddenly come out and scold her like today in the future.

  The thought of those women's scornful gazes made her feel so humiliated that she wanted to knock herself dead.

  She suddenly clutched her head and began to sway uncomfortably as if she had a severe headache.

  "Lan'er?" He was startled by her sudden movement, and Xia Lixun also forgot about his own sulking, hastily reaching out to grab both of her wrists. "Lan'er, what's wrong? Is something not feeling right? If you're uncomfortable anywhere just say so!"

  "I want to leave! I want to leave! I don't want to stay here!" As soon as she thought of the many women in his mansion, Liu Xue Lan couldn't help but get excited. Mainly because the words of these women were too humiliating for her. "Summer's surname, can you let me go? I'm begging you! I'm not a fox spirit, I'm not a cheap person! I didn't seduce anyone! The child in my belly is not a wild breed! Please spare me, I'm begging you, okay? Do you know what it feels like to be scolded and pointed at by others? I'd rather die!"

  Xia Lixuan's heart skipped a beat, he hadn't expected anyone would dare scold her like that!

  A sudden lump in his throat, he hastily hugged her out of control: "Lan'er! You listen to me, no one dares to scold you again! No one dares! I'll drive them all away, every single one of them! From now on, no one will ever dare speak nonsense in front of you!"

  He held her body tightly with one hand, not letting her get too excited and hurt herself, while the other hand gently patted her back, trying to calm down her agitated emotions.

  "This place is filthy, Xia's family, I'm disgusted by the filth here! Don't force me anymore, okay? Let me leave, okay?" Tears welled up in her eyes as Liu Xue Lan scolded and cried at the same time. She admitted that she still had feelings for him, but precisely because of those feelings, she was bothered by his past with other women. So every time she heard he went to Mei Ren Zhuang, she would go there to cause trouble, using any means necessary to sabotage, just so no other woman could touch him. But in this estate, with so many other women around, whenever she thought of him doing those things with them, her heart felt suffocated."

  After being entangled with her for many years, how could Xia Lixun not know what she was thinking. Knowing that she had been provoked by those women and misunderstood, he didn't care about losing face at this moment, and explained to her in a gentle voice beside her ear.

  "Lan'er listen to me, this place is not dirty, I swear, it's not dirty at all. Except for you, I haven't touched another woman, really, can you trust me just once?"

  "You're cheating on me!" Liu Xue Lan shouted without thinking. So many women were rushing in front of her, still using that tone to insult her, and now he was telling her that he had nothing to do with those women? How could this be?!

  "I, Xia Lixuan, swear that if I have ever touched a woman, let me die in the streets! He said to her ear, with an unprecedented seriousness. "If you don't believe me, you can find someone to examine them, I really haven't touched any of them!"

  Liu Xue Lan suddenly fell silent, looking up at him with tearful eyes, clearly not believing his words, but was shocked by his sudden oath.

  She stared at him suddenly, and Xia Lihuan only reacted to what he had said in a hurry. A hint of embarrassment flashed across the bottom of his eyes, and the base of his ears began to flush inexplicably for no reason. This woman was simply an idiot! Hadn't she noticed anything when he wanted her that time?

  "Have you really never been with a woman?" After a long time, Liu Xue asked this sentence.

  "Met one." Xia Lixun's mouth corners suddenly rose with a hint of a smile.

  Liu Xuelan's face instantly turned cold, and she was about to push him away with all her might. However, the man saw that things were not going well and hastily said, "I just touched you, what's the big deal?"

  “……?” Liu Xue Lan was stunned. Suddenly, her ears also turned bright red, and her pale face began to flush with a hint of redness. Lowering her head, it took her a while before she blurted out: "I don't believe it!"

  Xia Li Xun was about to vomit blood. A big man like him had already lost face by saying these things, and she still suspected him. What did this woman want?

  He was already embarrassed, and now being suspected by others, his temper suddenly flared up again.

  "Liu Xuelan, listen to me carefully, I'm telling you for the last time. I've never touched any other woman except you. If you dare to suspect me or think I'm dirty again, I'll definitely spank your butt!" What a petty-minded woman!

  At this moment, he was really glad that he had taken care of himself earlier, otherwise it would be troublesome now.

  This woman is driving him crazy!

  If it weren't for the fact that she was carrying his child, he would have really wanted to beat her up right now.

  Doesn't she know how embarrassing it would be if this gets out? He's a prince, for goodness' sake! Twenty-something years old and still a virgin? Who'd believe that? It's just laughable!

  Liu Xue Lan was forced to lean against his chest, listening to his almost gnashing words, and suddenly became quiet. After biting her lip several times, she lightly asked: "Is what you said true?"

  Xia Lixun's arm tightened, his face turned dark and gloomy, with a bulging vein on his forehead.

  "If you don't believe me, go check! Outside, you follow me day and night, do I still have the chance to sneak around? As soon as I return to the mansion, my mind is filled with your shrewish ways, do you think I still have the mood to touch others?" He swore that everything he said was true.

  Liu Xue Lan's tears suddenly flowed out again, this time she cried very quietly and also very depressingly: "You're about to get married, what's the use of telling me these things?"

  The collar of his shirt was wet with her tears, Xia Lixun took two deep breaths, lifted her head up, looked at her, and the cold arrogance in his eyes was replaced by an unprecedented seriousness and determination: "Yes, I am about to get married, but now I only want to marry you. Give me some time, let me handle those things well, okay? I said as long as you don't run away, as long as you obediently give birth to my child, whatever you say I will agree."

  Finally, he asked another question: "Lan'er, shall we start again?"

  Liu Xuelan didn't answer his question, but instead said in a low and mysterious tone: "Who knows if it's really the son? Are you only willing to tell me these things because of your son?"

  "......?!" Xia Lixun felt that he was almost wronged to death. If only his son, there were countless women willing to help him give birth.

  It wasn't until she turned a deaf ear and left the Tianlao that he realized, the person he had been thinking about the most in his mind and heart was this woman.

  He also knew that even if he brought those women back, he wouldn't touch them. To him, they were just a useful tool. But in these few months, he suddenly found out how dull and tasteless the days without her were, how annoying and unbearable they were.

  Just thinking about the torture of these few months, he still feels a lingering fear in his heart and really doesn't want to go through such days again! Especially when seeing her being affectionate with that pretty boy, almost becoming intimate, he even had thoughts of killing someone.

  Having said so much, she still doubted herself. Xia Lixuan gritted her teeth in hatred and suddenly turned stern, pressing her thin lips directly onto hers.

  This mouth made him hate and love her, he really hated to swallow her into his own belly, and see how she would dare to be stubborn with him in the future!

  The domineering kiss came suddenly, and Liu Xue Lan was momentarily at a loss, wanting to push him away, but her hands were suddenly caught by him, and he became even more presumptuous.

  Heavy breathing accompanied by the familiar scent of peppermint on his body quickly submerged her sober consciousness, and she passively lifted her head, awkwardly starting to respond.

  Just this little reaction made Xia Lixuan's heart suddenly excited beyond measure.

  He wrapped his arms around her body and quietly pressed her onto the bed, kissing her more and more passionately...

  Until a chill ran down to her chest, Liu Xue Lan suddenly woke up. She didn't know if it was lack of oxygen or what, but her cheeks were flushed red like cooked shrimp skin, and she even dared not believe that she had actually cooperated with him.

  Feeling her sudden resistance, Xia Lixuan reluctantly let go of her and buried his face in her neck, panting heavily.

  "Lan Er, I'm in so much pain..." His magnetic voice was filled with hoarseness and temptation by her ear.

  “……？！” Liu Xue Lan felt her heart beating very fast, almost jumping out of her chest, and her face turned even redder. She naturally noticed his changes, and because of this, she suddenly thought of what he had done to her before, the more she thought about it, the more embarrassed and ashamed she became.

  "Xia's surname, if you dare to touch me again, I will never forgive you in this life!" She suddenly warned with a vicious tone.

  Xia Li polished her back teeth. This dead woman, isn't she just worried that they haven't gotten married yet?

  Let's see how he'll deal with her after they get married!

  Although it's hard to bear, he is still rational. This dead woman would love to get rid of his son, and if he did what she wanted now, his son would probably not be spared either. He won't do as she wishes!

  He got up and sat on the edge of the bed, trying to keep a distance from her, making an effort to calm down the heat in his body.

  Seeing him finally respecting himself, Liu Xuelan secretly let out a sigh of relief. Although the two had already been husband and wife in reality, but not in name, she never wanted to have such intimate actions with him.

  In short, she just cares about that title!

  Whether she is said to be greedy for fame and wealth or said to be ignorant, in any case, without that reputation, she will not compromise at all!

  She turned over, quietly closing her eyes. Perhaps some of the knots in her heart had been untied, and she suddenly felt much lighter. As soon as she relaxed, she found herself overcome with drowsiness, and before she knew it, she had fallen asleep.

  In just a moment, he heard her gentle breathing coming over, Xia Lixun was stunned, and he didn't dare to believe it, leaning forward with his neck stretched out to take a look, and his mouth twitched uncontrollably.

  This woman actually fell asleep just like that?

  Looking at her peaceful sleeping face, her long and curled eyelashes were like a small fan quietly covering her eyes, her lovely sleeping face was like that of an infant, making him reluctant to wake her up.

  He lifted his hand and carefully placed it on her belly, gently rubbing back and forth a few times before reluctantly withdrawing his hand.

  I hope that after today, she can put down her prejudices and truly change her mind...

  He bowed his head and kissed her smooth white forehead with an irresistible light kiss.

  He really wanted to hold her and sleep, but he didn't dare. Heaven knows how much he wanted to touch her, his whole body aching inside and out...

  As for the situation of Prince Gong's mansion, Bai Xinzhu had someone go and investigate. After hearing that there were no casualties in Prince Gong's mansion, she finally put her mind at ease.

  Since becoming pregnant, the palace has been constantly sending congratulatory gifts to Cheng Wang Fu. At first, it was the emperor, who bestowed some precious medicinal materials. Then it was Empress Xiao, who sent many pieces of jewelry, followed by the various consorts from each palace, wave after wave of gifts being presented to her, leaving Bai Xincheng at a loss as to whether to accept or decline.

  Refusing would be impolite to the person and might be considered as looking down on them, which could easily offend people. Accepting it, she always felt uneasy in her heart, after all, many of the concubines she hadn't even seen before.

  Finally, with Yanmo Yu's support, she accepted all the gifts and let Zhou Bo, the housekeeper, put away all of them in the warehouse except for the medicinal herbs bestowed by the Emperor to nourish her body.

  It was almost noon when Xue Ying came to report that Madame Bai from Duke University's residence had come to request an audience with her.

  As for Zhang's family, Bai Xincheng didn't have any malicious intentions either. After tidying up and filling his stomach with food and medicine, he went to see Zhang's family under the accompaniment of Xue Ying and Gong Yiniang.

  Zhang was very humble, in Bai Xinzhen's view, Zhang had always been careful and meticulous towards everyone. After meeting her, she made a special effort to pay respects and ask about their well-being.

  "Madam Bai, don't be polite, please sit down." After saying this politely to Zhang Shi, she asked Xue Ying to serve tea.

  Mrs. Zhang sat down cautiously on the guest seat, took a glance at Bai Xincheng's belly, and smiled gently: "Suddenly coming to disturb the Crown Princess, please don't mind. The old master heard that you are pregnant, so he specially asked me to come over to congratulate the Crown Princess."

  Bai Xin smiled politely and said, "Lord Bai is indeed thoughtful."

  Anyone can hear that her words have a deeper meaning, and Zhang seems to have expected this attitude, his expression unchanged, still smiling and speaking, but the topic has shifted. "Our Hao's matter really owes thanks to Princess Wang's help, I came this time, first to congratulate Princess Wang, second to thank Princess Wang, thanking you for speaking beautifully of Hao in front of Prince Wang, only then could Hao have the opportunity to enter the Iron Cavalry."

  After finishing speaking, she stood up and bowed sincerely to Bai Xincheng.

  "Madam Bai was being polite." White Xinran smiled as if it didn't matter, "If we really talk about it, it's also Yu Hao's own fortune. I, the princess, don't deserve much credit for it either. He can stay in the Iron Cavalry Army, which means he has skills. If he didn't have this ability, even if I had worn out my tongue, he wouldn't be able to stay in the Iron Cavalry Army."

  "Your Highness, you're too modest. No matter what, you are the benefactor of our family's child. The several times you've helped our child, I, as a commoner's wife, have remembered them in my heart. For you, I only have deep gratitude." Zhang Shi said with a serious face.

  Bai Xin beckoned her to sit down with a lift of his hand.

  But Zhang Shi suggested leaving: "The princess is now pregnant, and the common woman dare not disturb her for long." After a pause, she beckoned to her attendants behind her and smiled at Bai Xincheng, "A humble gift, I hope the princess won't despise it."

  The attendants of the White Mansion placed a stack of gift boxes on the table beside Bai Xinzhu's body.

  Looking at the four or five red wooden chests stacked together, Bai Xintong blinked. She admitted that she had almost become numb to receiving gifts recently. It was just unknown what the White House had sent over.

  That white lord probably knew they wouldn't accept what he sent, so he deliberately let Zhangshi come alone.

  "Madam Gong, please accept the gift." In the end, Bai Xinzhi decided to give Zhang's family a bit of face. To say that she was also worthy of it, if not for her speaking up for Bai Yuhao in front of Mo Yu, would Mo Yu have agreed? This point she could confidently tell others, it was indeed her credit.

  As Gong Yinniang was about to leave after receiving the gift, Bai Xinzhu called out to her again: "Gong Yinniang, didn't Yunpin send some local specialties from the palace a couple of days ago? Go get some and let Madame Bai take them back to eat."

  Gong nodded: "Yes, Princess, I'll go get it now."

  Zhang was delighted and thanked Bai Xincheng repeatedly.

  After Old Lady Gong sent Zhang's wife away, only Bai Xinyan and Xueying were left.

  Looking at the unchanged Blood Shadow, Bai Xintong asked: "Blood Shadow, how is your development with Yin Du going?"

  His expression was still as calm and unruffled as ever, and he replied indifferently: "I'm not sure what Your Highness means."

  Bai Xin rubbed her forehead, which was aching from the dye. If it were someone else, they would definitely be shy and hesitant for a while, then blush and say to her with a racing heart, "Princess, you're so naughty!"

  Look at this one in front of you. Alas!

  So she decided that she couldn't beat around the bush anymore. For someone who didn't know what it meant to blush, it seemed like the only way was to be straightforward!

  "Have you held hands?"

  Xue Ying lowered his head, his expression unseen, his voice as calm and cold as ever: "Tell the princess, it's been pulled."

  "Have you kissed?"

  "Returning to the queen, I kissed her."

  Upon hearing this, Bai Xinzhen straightened his body and sat up straight, with a bright glint in the bottom of his eyes. Alas, things have developed to this point!

  "Did you sleep together?"

  "Back to the queen, slept."

  Pfft!

  Bai Xin's eyes widened in shock as she stared at her, her mouth agape. Wasn't this development a bit too fast?

  And besides, Du Yin is already almost married, yet he can't even wait for this short period of time.

  It seems that those albums she prepared for Blood Shadow have lost their effect. They all sleep together, how can nothing happen?

  Those deadbeat men don't look like good stuff at all, they're just normal guys, who would let them go uneaten?

  But she's really curious now, what exactly happened between those two...?

  She clenched her fist and pressed it to her lips, deliberately clearing her throat twice. Bai Xincheng looked at her with a serious expression and said solemnly, "Blood Shadow? It's not that I want to say you, but this woman should know how to be reserved and dignified, do you understand? You said the two of you can't wait any longer, so why can't you bear it? What if someone finds out, won't we become a laughing stock?"

  But who would have thought that after Blood Shadow heard this, he suddenly raised his head, and a hint of coldness flashed in the bottom of his eyes. "Princess, Yin Du said that you instructed him to do this."

  "......?!?" Bai Xin was shocked. Die Yin and Du Ni Ma, when did she ever tell them to sleep together?!

  Seeing the chill in Xue Ying's eyes suddenly surge up, Bai Xincheng's heart skipped a beat, he was done for!

  She coughed and then said very seriously, "Ah, I remember now. I think I did give instructions... to have him cover you with more blankets at night so you don't catch a chill."

  "...?!" The chill in Xueying's eyes dissipated, and a strange glow suddenly flashed across her face.

  Bai Xin's eyes narrowed slightly, and she couldn't quite grasp what was going on in her mind, but the unusual feeling indicated that something was amiss.

  "Didn't Yin Du give you a quilt?"

  Xue Ying lowered his head: "Returning to the princess, there is."

  "Do you guys wear clothes when you sleep?"

  "Returning to the queen, there is."

  Upon hearing this, Bai Xincheng let out a sigh of relief. It seems these two haven't succeeded yet?

  What is Yin Du doing? Is he really lulling people to sleep?

  "Cough, cough, cough..." She coughed again and suddenly pulled out a handmade booklet from her sleeve. It had a cover but no words on it. She stuffed the booklet into Blood Shadow's hand and raised an eyebrow. "I'm giving this to you, take good care of it, and remember to read two or three pages every night."

  "May I ask, Your Highness, what is the use of this book?" Looking at the black leather-bound book in his hand, a hint of puzzlement appeared in Blood Shadow's eyes.

  Bai Xin's face turned slightly pale, and after a quick glance around, she smiled and said, "This is the wedding gift I'm giving you. I heard that if husband and wife watch it together, they can cultivate their minds and bodies. This is a private treasure, except for Yin Du, don't show it to outsiders."

  "Xiao knows. Thank you, Princess Wang, for your gift." Xue Ying put the book into his sleeve and bowed to Bai Xing with a fist in hand.

  Bai Xin's lips curled up slightly as he said indifferently, "No need to thank me, as long as it can enhance your abilities, this little thing is nothing."

  Upon hearing this, Xue Ying suddenly asked a question: "If the princess bestows this treasure upon me, then won't you and the prince be unable to cultivate?"

  Hmph!

  Bai Xin almost couldn't hold back and spit it out.

  "Cough, cough... Don't mind it, I and Wang Ye have collected quite a few. If you think it's not enough, feel free to come here and take some anytime."

  "Little one thanks the princess, if little one's skills improve again, I will ask the princess for more." Xue Ying didn't stand on ceremony either. For people who practiced martial arts like them, having a secret manual of martial arts was definitely considered a treasure, and they wouldn't decline it out of politeness.

  "Alright, nothing's wrong, you can go down now. I'll head back to my room to rest. When the prince returns, come and notify me again." Not wanting to stay here any longer, afraid that she would burst out laughing uncontrollably, Bai Xincheng hastily stood up and walked towards the outer hall.

  ……

  That night, Bai Xinzhi couldn't sleep on the bed, constantly thinking about someone's appearance when looking at 'Martial Arts Secret Book', and even imagined many scenes in her mind.

  She didn't seem to want to sleep, and I was puzzled by it, but at the same time, she didn't look like she had any worries on her mind. Just as I was about to ask her what was wrong, Yin Du shouted from outside the door -

  "Your Highness, something terrible has happened!"

  Upon hearing this, Bai Xincheng sprang up from his somersault. Alas, Mother, could reading 'The Book of Small Men' really lead to loss of life?

  She moved a bit hastily, but Yan Mo didn't get scared by Yin Du, instead she got frightened by Bai Xincheng to the point of breaking out in cold sweat. Jun's face sank, and he couldn't help but hug her: "What are you doing? Do you want to ask for a beating? Don't you know that you can't move around randomly?"

  Bai Xin touched his own occipital bone. Damn it, she was too excited, wasn't she? Who let Yin Du scream in the middle of the night?!

  After training the woman, Yan Mo's handsome face sank into a cold expression as he turned towards the door and asked in a chilly tone: "What happened?"

  Yin Du's tense voice came from outside the door: "Your Highness, today Bai Furen came to the mansion to pay her respects to Wang Fei. Wang Fei gave Bai Furen some yam as a return gift. It is said that after Bai Furen took the yam back and had it cooked in the kitchen, Bai Gongye, Bai Furen, and Tai Furen all got poisoned. It is said that Bai Gongye and Bai Furen have been rescued, but Tai Furen is old and was poisoned more severely, now she is in a critical condition."

  What?!

  Bai Xin was shocked once again.

  Yan Mo frowned and asked Bai Xincheng, "Where did the mountain medicine come from?"

  He certainly didn't believe it was his own woman's doing. Although he knew she didn't like the Bai family, he knew her background and that she had no real relationship with the Bai family, so there was no hatred, how could she go to harm someone? Moreover, his own woman wasn't stupid enough to use this method to harm someone.

  Bai Xin's face was also filled with worry and confusion: "Those yams were sent by Palace Cloud, I heard that in her hometown, they consider yams to be a local treasure. Since she had relatives coming to the capital, she brought some along and when she heard I was pregnant, she sent them over to me. Didn't I tell you two days ago? Because the emperor's tonic medicine was too much for me to finish, I thought of using the yams as a gesture of goodwill and asked Madame Bai to bring them back. That's all."

  Although people in the capital consider mountain medicine to be a treasure, she has eaten quite a few artificially cultivated mountain medicines in modern times, so she doesn't have a fresh feeling about mountain medicine, which is why she gave it to Zhang Shi to take back.

  "Have you ever seen those wild yams?" Yan Mo's thick eyebrows furrowed even more.

  Bai Xin shook her head: "There are too many things from the palace, I haven't looked at them one by one, they're all handed over to Gong Yiniang and kept by Zhou Bobo."

  He tightly pursed his thin lips, his face somewhat pale. After a moment of silence, he let Bai Xincheng lie back on the bed and prepared to get up and dress: "You sleep first, I'll go see what's going on."

  Who is it that is secretly manipulating things and daring to so openly frame her?

  How can this be!

  "Moyu, let me go too?" Bai Xincheng crawled up from behind him.

  Sleep? How can she sleep at this time?

  She almost became a murderer.
