Zi'an slept for about half an hour, and then the nanny asked her to get up and eat.
After eating, she strolled in the yard for a while to digest the food, then took a bath and washed up. She waited for Lao Qi for a while, but he still hadn't come back. She started to feel sleepy again, so she thought about taking a nap and having a midnight snack when he came back.
She didn't know how long she slept when she felt someone caressing her face. She opened her eyes and looked around sleepily, and saw a pair of black eyes looking at her quietly.
She smiled and put her face into his palm, "Are you back?"
"I'm sorry, I had a few drinks with my second brother and was delayed for a while." Murong Jie said softly.
"It's okay," Zi'an sat up, hugged the quilt, and asked, "How is he?"
Murong Jie sat down and sighed, "It can be considered as a temporary appeasement, but the longer this matter is delayed, the more dangerous it will be. Not to mention whether my second brother can control himself, my mother-in-law is also afraid that there will be danger."
"I will go to the palace tomorrow and think of a way to give the prepared medicine to Concubine Mei." Zi'an said.
"Yes, but Mei Fei needs to choose the right time to act. The emperor is now... If he finds out
Mei Fei's small actions will remind people of Yi Guifei's affairs, which is very dangerous. "Murong Jie reminded.
Zi An thought so too, and after thinking for a while, she said, "How about I help my mother get rid of the poison when I go to Xiwei Palace."
The emperor calmed down the matter of the vixen and vindicated her, simply to make use of her medical skills to treat him. From now on, she will spend more time in and out of Xiwei Palace.
But Prince An needs to be patient.
"You really have to keep a close eye on your second brother recently and don't let him fall into any trap." Zi'an warned again.
"In fact, he himself knows that this is a trap, but when it comes to emotions, reason doesn't work."
His hand stroked down from her cheek, fire burning in his eyes. After being apart for so many days, what he wanted most was to hold her under him.
He kissed her, and Zian hesitated for a moment before saying, "No, let's just be patient for a while."
"Are you tired? I'll be gentler." The road was bumpy all the way back from Baoan Temple, and she must be tired, but he missed her very much.
He said something, but it only made him more angry. Zi'an knew that he had been holding back for a long time, so he said softly, "Okay, but be gentle."
Murong Jie sealed her feelings with a kiss and gently placed her under him, feeling infinite pity for her.
Zi'an didn't get to have his midnight snack, but Murong Jie did.
Zi'an was so tired that her back and waist ached. She warned herself not to indulge herself in the future.
Because she was tired, she slept soundly.
It was not until she heard the nanny's deafening roar that she slowly opened her eyes.
The nanny was not yelling at her, but at Murong Jie.
Murong Jie got up early, opened the door and asked someone to come in to serve him.
The old maid knew what happened last night at a glance. She was furious and didn't care about offending anyone. She yelled at Murong Jie, "Prince, how can you be so unrestrained? The princess is not in the same condition as before. You have to endure it even if you can't bear it anymore. What if you hurt the princess?"
Murong Jie's face suddenly darkened, and he said coldly: "Since when did the nanny have to intervene in the bed affairs between the prince and the princess?"
Seeing that Lao Qi was angry, Zi An quickly stood up to smooth things over and said to the nanny, "Mammy, it's okay. I'm a doctor and I know my limits."
Although the nanny was scolded by Murong Jie, she was not afraid at all. She looked at him and said, "In the past, I didn't care, but now it's different. The old prince An Ran has repeatedly warned us not to indulge in pleasure in the first three months. If the prince really loves the princess and the baby in her belly, he should be more self-controlled."
Murong Jie had just picked up a piece of clothing. When he heard this, he stared at the nanny with wide eyes, "What child are you talking about?"
Nanny thought he was going to get mad with his eyes wide open, and she was ready to respond. Suddenly she was startled by this question, then she turned back to look at Zi'an, and she understood a little, "Princess, didn't you tell the prince?"
Zi'an was also stunned, "The old prince said so."
"What are you talking about?" Murong Jie roared, scaring Zi'an so much that he trembled.
The nanny immediately said angrily: "Why is your Highness so fierce? The princess is pregnant, don't you know about this?"
"Who knew? Who told me?" Murong Jie was furious. From yesterday to today, no one had told him.
Zi'an was both amused and confused, "Didn't the old prince tell you yesterday?"
"No, where did he say that?" Murong Jie thought for a moment, "Ah? The happy event he mentioned, could it be that he was talking about your pregnancy?"
Zi'an smiled and said, "I thought he said it, so I didn't mention it again."
Murong Jie's wide-open eyes suddenly became very round, very round. All the hostility seemed to be restrained in an instant, and his face became pious. Slowly, he moved his gaze to Zi'an's lower abdomen. His eyes became rounder and rounder, so round that they almost bubbled.
It was so amazing that his child, his and Zi'an's child, was living in her belly.
He suddenly apologized to the maid in all seriousness, "Mammy, you are right. It is me who has no sense of propriety and self-control. You are right to scold me. You must continue to scold me in the future."
The nanny almost fell down laughing: "Who would have thought that the prince, as a father, didn't know."
Murong Jie walked over, bent down and supported Zi'an, "Don't get out of bed so quickly, continue to sleep, do you feel uncomfortable anywhere? Are you hungry? What do you want to eat?"
Zi'an said, "I have to get up now. I have to go to the palace today. Have you forgotten?"
"No, you are not allowed to go anywhere." Murong Jie refused outright. Also, he had to think carefully about who could not come. He must not meet reckless people like Liu Liu. Looking at her, she would jump around all the time and might easily bump into Zi'an.
Also, stay away from smart people, as they have a murderous aura and can have a bad influence on the fetus.
Ni Rong won’t work either. Ni Rong always likes to inflate. The child in the mother’s body always sees such an inflated bag, and will become an inflated bag in the future.
You must not associate with Qin Zhou. He is a cunning person and might covet children.
He counted on his fingers for the nanny to hear, and from now on, all these people would be chased away.
Zi'an said unhappily, "Ni Rong is here every day, why can't I see him? And how can he be puffy? His face is just swollen. And Liu Liu, she can't even jump around, she's pregnant. As for Ling Li, if she's not by my side, who will protect me? Can you make sure she stays by my side for twelve hours every day?"
Murong Jie felt a little deflated, while the nanny couldn't help laughing. She was very happy. Yesterday, when she saw the prince's cold attitude, she had imagined that the prince didn't value the princess. It turned out that he didn't know about it.
"Then when she comes, you have to keep a certain distance from her."
"But I have to enter the palace today," Zi'an said.
Murong Jie said in a tone that there was no room for negotiation, "No, you can't go anywhere. In the first three months, the middle three months, and the last three months, you can't go anywhere."
He had heard that the most important periods of pregnancy were the first three months, the middle three months, and the last three months, which meant that all nine months were relatively important.
