"Long Yan, you idiot, stand still!" In the long corridor of the fourth prince's residence, the young master's loud shouting of Long Yan attracted the attention of all the servants in the manor. Although everyone was already used to this situation and knew the development and ending of this story, they still felt that it was quite interesting, so they secretly watched from the sidelines.
In the face of such a roar from Gongzi Ying, Long Yan simply ignored it and continued to walk his own path. Today, he wanted to enter the palace to see Bu Jinghua. It had been a whole day since he last saw him, and he really missed him.
"Long Yan, stop. If you don't stop now, I'll … I'll …" Even though they were both pregnant, she still lost to Bu Jinghua. She thought that pregnancy was the main reason, and wanted to use it to snatch the man Bu Jinghua loved.
The man in front of her was not a fool. His inner force cultivation was so strong, and this had aroused Young Master Ying's desire to subdue him. He could even strike at Bu Jinghua. This was two birds with one stone for her, but it was not what she wanted.
"I just told muhou that you bullied me …" Young Master Ying pointed at Long Yan's back and shouted. Ye Zichen brought the empress out once again.
He clearly knew what he had done. That night, he had only used his sword to pry apart that woman's clothes. If she really was pregnant, then that was none of his business.
When he heard that the empress had already told Bu Jinghua about the pregnancy, he had to go in and explain it to her now. Even if he believed that she trusted him, he still wanted to see her and give her an explanation.
"You, you …" Seeing how Long Yan was unmoved by the fact that he even brought out the Queen, Young Master Ying had no other way. The man in front of him actually didn't want to pay her back at all. This made Young Master Ying even angrier, but he had no way to do anything about it.
"Aiya …" Suddenly, Gongzi Ying, who was standing behind Long Yan, let out a blood-curdling screech. Then, he saw that she was clutching her stomach with a face full of pain. Seeing that Long Yan was still ignoring her, her blood-curdling screech grew louder, "Aiya …" "Aiya …" Even her entire body had become twisted.
"Miss, Miss, what happened to you?" Long Yan ignored him, but Young Master Ying's actions frightened Little Violet, the personal maidservant behind her. Little Violet immediately followed, grabbing the one that was covering her stomach, yet couldn't even stand straight Young Master Ying, as she asked in alarm.
Ah!" "Ahhh!" Young Master Ying's expression looked very pained. "My stomach, my stomach …" "It hurts!" Even his voice sounded as if he was trying his best to resist the excruciating pain.
Stomach..." "AHH!" "It can't be. What's wrong with the child?" "Hearing that, Lil Violet's face turned blue from fright. She held onto Young Master Ying and shouted," Someone, come quickly. Find a doctor, quick!
Everyone immediately surrounded him and carefully supported their young master, afraid that something would happen to the child in her stomach. The empress had specifically instructed that they must take care of the concubine on the side of the fourth prince.
He originally wanted to leave just like that, but in the end, his footsteps stopped. He turned around and suspiciously looked at Gongzi Ying, only to see that she really had an extremely painful look on her face. She covered her own stomach with her hands, and kept yelling, "Your stomach hurts?"
Was this woman really pregnant? Even if he hadn't touched her, it was inevitable that there would be other affairs with a woman like her. Pregnancy was also a possibility. If she really was pregnant, even if the child wasn't his, it would still be an innocent life.
"Long Yan, Long Yan, save, save us …" "Child …" Seeing that Long Yan had finally stopped and was looking at her with a puzzled look, a trace of success flashed through Young Master Ying Ying's heart. However, on the surface, she still had a painful begging expression and extended her hand towards Long Yan for help.
Before, when Long Yan encountered this kind of situation, he definitely wouldn't show mercy, let alone stop his steps to save others. However, ever since he had Bu Jinghua and their child, he felt that he had changed. He became especially gentle and considerate towards others, especially towards his children.
Gongzi Ying's child was innocent!
Thinking like this, Long Yan only hesitated for a moment. Then, he stepped forward and picked up Gongzi Ying, sending her back to her room at an extremely fast and steady pace.
Nestling in Long Yan's embrace, the Young Master had a smile plastered on his face. However, his smile only lasted for a moment, and Long Yan, who had wholeheartedly wanted to save his child, had also missed it.
Not long after he was carried to the bed, the imperial physician rushed over. He carefully checked Young Master Ying Ying's pulse. His expression had always been quite grave. It seemed that the situation wasn't looking good.
"Doctor, my child, my child... Are you alright? " Gongzi Ying, who was lying on the bed and moaning in pain, didn't forget to gently cover his stomach as he looked worriedly at the imperial physician. "Wuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwu …"
"This …" The imperial physician's expression was still as heavy as ever, and he wanted to say something but hesitated.
"What's wrong? "Speak!" Long Yan, who was waiting at the side, also lost his patience. He couldn't stand the imperial physician's stammering.
"The situation isn't too good. There are signs of a low birth!" the doctor said hesitantly.
"A small child?" Hearing this, Young Master Ying looked very sorrowful, even a little excited. "Imperial Physician, I beg of you, please think of a way. Save the child, I beg of you!"
"Fourth prince's consort, don't get too excited. Don't get too excited. Otherwise, even the deities will not be able to save this child!" The imperial physician suppressed the agitated gongzi Ying and said bitterly.
"I... I... "Sob, sob, sob …" Hearing this, Gongzi Ying calmed down, but at the same time, he started to cry sorrowfully. Looking at her, her eyes were filled with tears. This woman really didn't seem like she was pretending.
"Don't be sad, this will also result in a small fortune!" The Imperial Physician looked helpless.
"I... But, I … "What I don't want to cry about is that I don't listen to my tears and keep on flowing …" Young Master Ying wailed on and off; he looked really pitiful.
"This... Fourth Prince, this … What should we do? " The imperial physician helplessly looked at Long Yan.
"Alright, stop crying. It's not good for the child if you cry too much!" If even the imperial physician said so, then perhaps she really was pregnant. As for who the child is, we'll talk about it when her body stabilizes. With his experience of taking care of Bu Jinghua, Long Yan also knew what was good for children and what wasn't good for children. Excited and sad was truly a bad mood.
"I... "Mhmm …" Seeing Long Yan open his mouth to speak, Young Master Ying was slightly stunned. He looked at Long Yan with tears in his eyes, and then unexpectedly nodded his head obediently. It seemed as if Long Yan's words were really an imperial edict.
"Alright, take a good rest. What you need right now is rest!" Long Yan turned around and was about to leave, but his desire to see Bu Jinghua did not stop for even a moment. If it wasn't for the sudden incident with Young Master Ying, he would most likely be in the palace by now.
"Where are you going? "Don't go!" Young Master Ying immediately called out to Long Yan.
"Where I go has nothing to do with you. You just need to rest. You all, take good care of her! " Long Yan instructed the maidservant beside him coldly.
"Yes, fourth prince!" The maidservants did not dare to slight the fourth prince, who had become more than a little more intelligent. They immediately saluted him with their hands folded in front.
After coldly looking at Gongzi Ying, Long Yan turned around and continued walking on his own path.
"Wherever you go, I'll go too!" "Aiya …" Young Master Ying panicked and immediately got off the bed. Unexpectedly, he stumbled and fell to the ground.
"The fourth prince's consort …" When the imperial physician and everyone else saw the situation unfold, they were so frightened that their faces turned green and their lips turned white. They immediately went over to support Young Master Ying.
"You …" As Long Yan saw this, his eyebrows unconsciously wrinkled together, "Don't take your child's life as a joke!"
"I don't care. If you don't accompany me, I'll … I'll …" I don't want this child anymore! " The young master stared at Long Yan with hatred, as if Long Yan had done something wrong.
"You …" Facing the unruly Young Master Ying, Long Yan frowned in disgust. He really thought that this woman's death nature had changed. Unexpectedly, it didn't.
"As you wish …" Since even the mother of the child didn't value her, there was no need for him to say anything more. He didn't like this woman from the start, so he didn't want to get involved with her any more. Long Yan coldly turned around and left.
"Long Yan, if you dare to take even a single step outside this door, I, I …" Facing such a cold man, Young Master Ying Ying felt humiliated. This man actually didn't care about her master at all. When had her master ever been treated so coldly? This man, hmph, her young master would definitely make him submit under her skirt and do his best to torture him until he regretted treating her like this today.
"If you want to die, there's nothing I can do!" After Long Yan coldly said this sentence, he stepped out of the room, making the Young Master Ying grind his teeth as he sat on the floor, hatefully staring at that cold back. His right fist punched the bed heavily, producing a loud sound.
Just at this moment, the door was suddenly blocked by a person who barged in, "What can't be done? How could you say such a thing? " A rather dignified female voice echoed in. Following the voice's gaze, it turned out that the graceful Queen rushed over and blocked the entrance of the room. She solemnly stared at Long Yan who was just about to step out as she spoke.
"Greetings, esteemed empress!" Upon seeing the newcomer, all the servants in the room knelt down to pay their respects.
Seeing the sudden arrival of the Queen, Long Yan was shocked for a moment before bowing slightly, "Greetings, Imperial Mother!"
"You should rise!" The empress's cold voice sounded, after giving Long Yan a sidelong glance, she looked at Young Master Ying Ying who was slumped on the ground, and immediately stepped forward in worry, "Ying'er, why did you sit on the ground? Quick, quickly, bring the fourth prince onto the bed! "
Upon hearing his order, everyone immediately moved Young Master Ying onto the bed.
"Muhou …" The Young Master looked woodenly at the empress. Suddenly, he opened his mouth and started crying as if he had been wronged.
"Why is this child crying? If you have any grievances, tell your mother, and your mother will make the decision for you! " The empress caressed Young Master Ying Ying's head as she consoled her.
"Muhou, I, I …" Young Master Ying looked at Long Yan with a wronged expression. He wanted to say something but hesitated. However, the meaning could not be more obvious.
Yan'er, are you bullying Ying'er? Hurry up and come over. "Now that Ying'er is pregnant, she can't fall down and she can't be in a bad mood. Is this how you act as a husband or a father?" "The queen glared at Longyan and scolded him harshly.
"Humph!" Hearing the Queen's reply, Long Yan coldly smiled, "She knows what she has done. She should be responsible for what she has done, not for me!" There was a hidden meaning within Long Yan's words. He coldly glanced at Gongzi Ying. This woman, she actually didn't know how to feel guilty. She was truly a shameless woman.
"You, what do you mean by that, I, I … "Muhou …" Gongzi Ying wasn't stupid. He immediately understood Long Yan's intentions when he heard her, and he looked at the empress for help with even more grievance as tears welled up in his eyes.
"Yan'er, you can't speak nonsense. Ying'er is your concubine, and everyone in Yan City knows what you've done to her. If you don't take responsibility, who else can?!" The queen's words were full of questions.
"I …" Long Yan was about to retort, but he didn't expect the Queen's dignified voice to interrupt him, "At that time, your mind wasn't very clear, and you didn't even remember what you had done. That is understandable, but to do it is to do it, it doesn't mean that you don't have to take responsibility! "Ying'er is your concubine! This is ironclad reality. The child in her womb is yours, and this is also ironclad reality. You cannot deny it!" The empress's words completely blocked Long Yan's possible explanation. Who knew that the empress would be so formidable, using the reason of him being a "fool" to block her, leaving him speechless.
"…" Long Yan looked at the empress in dissatisfaction. He knew that no matter how he explained himself, it would be useless, but he would definitely not compromise. The child in the young master's womb was not his.
Long Yan turned his head away, intending to directly ignore these people that he didn't like.
Seeing Long Yan's attitude, the empress's heart was immediately filled with rage. She already knew the depth of this child's shrewdness. From Long Yan's attitude towards her, it seemed that he had long treated her as his mother's enemy! Hmph, but this is good as well. It saves her from continuing to pretend to be a good person. It's actually quite tiring to pretend to be one as well.
The Queen gave a faint smile, stood up, and slowly walked towards Long Yan. She said in a voice that only two people could hear:
"Since the child belongs to you, then you have to take care of Ying'er yourself. As for that girl Bu Jinghua, hmph, do you think the child in her womb is yours? What does everyone know about her actions before?" However, regardless of whether she is your son or not, I will still take good care of her. You can stay here peacefully with Gongzi Ying and don't let anything go wrong with her. The Queen's voice was so sinister. She actually used Bu Jinghua to threaten Long Yan to take care of Gongzi Ying. What was this venomous woman's intention?
Staring deeply at the sinister Queen in front of him, Long Yan could only tightly clench his fists, but did not dare to retort in the slightest. He knew the viciousness of the Queen. She was a vicious woman that could be said or done.
There was only one reason why she was acting like this for her young master, and that was because she had something to do with Gongsheng. According to his guess, that person should be … The throne!
The empress was so ambitious, coveting for the throne all the time. Hehe, dragon shield, dragon shield. Actually, you're the pitiful one. You don't even have someone you trust?
"Take good care of Hua'er. Otherwise, I won't let you off!" Long Yan knew that he currently didn't have the strength to go head to head with the empress, but if she really dared to do something that would hurt Bu Jinghua, he definitely wouldn't sit still and wait for death.
"Haha, don't worry, I'll leave Ying'er to you. Remember, she is pregnant, you can't curse and you can't hit her. You must take good care of her, understand?" The empress's voice became gentler, but only Long Yan could clearly hear the orders in her words.
"Ying'er, if there's anything you want to eat, just tell Yan'er, do you understand? Women are the most pregnant, don't be embarrassed. If you're in a bad mood, you can even hit them and scold them! " Although the empress's words were light, Long Yan knew that they were said on purpose for him to hear. He still had to do whatever he wanted to get scolded. This was the empress's warning to him.
"Yes, your wife understands!" Young Master Ying nodded and looked at Long Yan with a smile, a trace of success appearing on the corner of her mouth.
