The maid's words stunned Wen Fuchen for a moment. He suddenly turned and grabbed the maid.

"Is what you said true? Are you trying to frame me? "

All day long, he had been thinking about how to defeat Hu Xiao, but he was helpless. Now that Xue Mier was pregnant, the heavens were truly helping the two of them.

This child came at the right time, with this child, Qin Shuo would definitely love Xue Mier even more.

"Minister Wen, this is absolutely true. His Majesty already knows that he is currently accompanying the Empress in her carriage."

Seeing Wen Fuchen like that, the servant hurriedly said.

"Mm, I understand. Go serve your esteemed mistress."

Although he wanted to look for Xue Mier now, since Qin Shuo was still there, a few hours would be fine. In any case, since the child inside his stomach was already here, he wouldn't run around.

After the servant left, Wen Fuchen hid inside the horse carriage, and it was time to think carefully about how to protect the child in Xue Mier's stomach.

If Hu Xiao knew about this, then it would be even more difficult for Xue Mier's children, and who was currently thinking knew of this news.

"This is great!"

He looked very happy, without a trace of uneasiness in his expression.

After searching Hu Xiao's face for a long time and not finding a single flaw, Zhi Lan finally gave up.

"Empress, you're not worried?"

Zhi Lan asked after hesitating for a long time.

"Not worried?" You think I should be worrying about something? I'm happy but I don't have the time for it. Xue Mier's pregnancy is something that can cause one's East Court to expand and scatter.

Hu Xiao looked at Zhi Lan strangely, as if she did not know why Zhi Lan had asked this question.

Seeing that, Zhi Lan could only shake her head, but in her heart, she suddenly thought of something. That was true, the Empress and the Emperor did not have any feelings for each other, although the relationship between the two of them had improved a little, but at most, they were just friends, and in the name of friends, they should be happy.

Due to Xue Mier being pregnant, their journey was extremely busy, after all, she was carrying a dragon's seed, so it was impossible for him to make even the slightest of mistakes.

The journey was slow, so they arrived at the relay station shortly after dusk.

Escorting Xue Mier into the house all the way, she somewhat ignored the empress Hu Xiao.

Seeing that, Hu Xiao finally understood why Zhi Lan had such a strange expression on her face. Wasn't she supposed to be worried?

He was just a child, how could a concubine be bigger than a queen? Hu Xiao smiled and walked straight in, since she did not intend to be the Queen in the first place, if Qin Shuo could use this chance to divorce her, that would be for the better.

After being exhausted all day, other than Xue Mier who had been protected along the way, whose state of mind was still better, the rest of them were listless and went back to their rooms early to sleep.

Hu Xiao had slept all the way back on her horse, and was currently in high spirits. The moonlight was perfect, and just as she was walking around the inn, she saw a pavilion in the rear of the inn that was extremely elegant, and under the moonlight, the surroundings became extremely quiet and a good place to go.

At the same time, Xue Mier was also unable to fall asleep, but she was indeed disturbed by his body. The early stage of pregnancy was already very irritating, and when his body was uncomfortably tight, she was unable to fall asleep peacefully.

"Since you're here, sit down."

Hu Xiao had long heard the sound of footsteps behind him, and when she saw that the man did not come out even after a long time, she spoke up.

"Imperial Consort Xue? "Sit."

Looking at the one month old stomach, Hu Xiao's smile was a little unclear.

"Chenqie greets Empress."

Xue Mier had been afraid the whole way back, and she had wanted to return, but she didn't want to flee in such a desperate situation. She stood behind the fake mountain for a long time, and when she heard Hu Xiao's words, she couldn't help but step forward.

"Oh, I cannot afford the salute of Imperial Consort Xue, you are the one that everyone is afraid of, how could I dare to allow Imperial Consort Xue to bow? Quickly get up, if not, your majesty will feel sorry for me when you see it."

Although he said that, his actions did not show any signs of fear.

Although Xue Mier's heart was thumping, her body was not feeling well in the first place, so she naturally sat down.

"Empress knows that Chenqie is pregnant?"

Hu Xiao curled her lips slightly, Xue Mier was extremely high-profile today, and had been constantly protecting Xue Mier, even if she did not want to know, she had heard people mentioning him for a long time in front of her, whether intentionally or unintentionally.

"Heh, I naturally know. It's already late and I'm afraid that your imperial concubine will catch a cold. If the two of you send your imperial concubine back, His Majesty might not let you off if there's even the slightest mistake."

Hu Xiao said to the two people behind Xue Mier.

The two of them had been trying their best to stop Xue Mier from coming out at such a late hour, and upon receiving Hu Xiao's order, they quickly brought him out.

Seeing that, Xue Mier obediently followed the two people back. There was still a long way to go, and she, Xue Mier, did not believe that Hu Xiao could continue laughing so happily!

It could be said that they were at peace.

"Dear Consort, can your body still withstand it?"

Qin Shuo had originally wanted to keep Xue Mier at the inn to rest and wait for them to return, but who knew that Xue Mier had always been very obedient, and now that she insisted on following them, thinking of the child in her stomach, Qin Shuo felt a little helpless.

"Your Majesty, this is the child of your Majesty and your concubine. If you want to become a prince of East Court, you can't be so weak! Your Majesty, chenqie can hold on. Besides, the imperial physician is by your side. Nothing will happen to you. "

Xue Mier shook Qin Shuo's arm and said.

A talented woman like her was indeed beautiful, but when Hu Xiao looked at Qin Shuo's and his appearance, he only felt that they were a little dazzling, and even a little bored.

However, after seeing that the two of them had finally agreed to board the carriage, he slowly walked into his own.

They ridiculed, disdained, gloated, and were even a little worried. Hu Xiao felt that if she continued to be watched by these people, she would definitely be depressed, so she had shut herself up in the carriage.

"Empress."

Zhi Lan turned towards Hu Xiao and changed her usual smile. She was a little worried, so she decided to lie if she wasn't worried.

Zhi Lan, it's not like you don't know what I am thinking, it's just that I feel that those people's gazes are too annoying, and are still so exposed, so you don't have to mention those persuasive words anymore.

With that, Hu Xiao ignored Zhi Lan and went to sleep by the side.
