Chapter 392: His Royal Highness's Baby
Chapter 392: His Royal Highness's Baby
"I said the wrong thing. Your Highness is the most popular person among the nobles in our imperial city. But I am tired and do not want to go to the Duke of Chen's mansion."
"Who said I wanted you to go to Duke Chen's mansion? I'm waiting for you because I want to show you something good."
What good thing could make His Royal Highness the Crown Prince so excited? Su Nuan was immediately curious.
As the two walked along, Mu Yunting changed from holding each other's wrists to holding hands.
Su Nuan didn't feel anything unusual because there was clothing on her wrists before. But now that they were holding hands, she realized that Mu Yunting's hands were cold. She was moved and couldn't help asking, "How long has your highness been standing outside?"
"Not long."
"How long has it been since your hands got this cold?"
Su Nuan gathered Mu Yunting's slender hands into a ball and wrapped them with her own hands.
Mu Yunting pressed the corners of his mouth hard, for fear of revealing the joy in his heart.
I must reward the old servant who guards the gate later. If it weren't for his words, I wouldn't have thought of freezing my hands.
When the old servant advised him to wait for someone in the house, he said: Concubine Xia would be sad if he got frozen outside.
He became concerned, gathered his inner strength, and endured the cold for a while. I wanted to see if that person would feel sorry for him.
Now my big hand is wrapped in that warm little hand, and it seems that everything is perfect.
Su Nuan warmed Mu Yunting's hands completely subconsciously, and by the time she realized that her behavior was too intimate, it was too late.
Thinking that Mu Yunting was standing outside waiting for her and that was why he froze her like this, Su Nuan felt an uncontrollable sweetness in her heart. She wanted to indulge in it, but her reason told her not to.
So she started talking, trying to divert attention.
"What good thing did Your Highness get?"
"I won't tell you yet. You'll know when you see it later."
The more Mu Yunting acted like this, the more curious Su Nuan became. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has seen everything, and he thinks everything is good. Then it must be some rare treasure!
I get excited just thinking about how I’ll be able to see a big baby soon.
The two of them walked through the huge courtyard of the villa and came to a main house deep in the yard.
This is the Crown Prince's bedroom in the other courtyard.
"Little sister, you're here at the right time. I have something to talk to you about."
Mu Yunting's hands were about to close the door when Xia Changze's voice suddenly rang out.
Who spoke so quickly that he brought this annoying guy here?
Su Nuan also felt that the third brother came at the wrong time. Couldn’t he wait until she had seen the rare treasures before coming to see her?
But the third brother must have something important to tell me. Anyway, the baby can't run away, and he will still be there when I look later.
Su Nuan looked up at Mu Yunting and said, "Your Highness, can I come back to see your baby later?"
Can Mu Yunting still say no? He has been standing outside waiting for others to "present treasures", so it would be hypocritical to say no now.
"Okay, you go."
That being said, he was unhappy in his heart and he didn't try to hide it, and his unhappiness showed clearly on his face.
Xia Changze naturally noticed the Crown Prince's displeasure, a kind of displeasure of having a good thing interrupted. He had seen this expression on his father's face. His father looked like this when he was called out from Aunt Xu's courtyard.
Thinking of what his younger sister had just said, Xia Changze's face suddenly turned red.
"Well, little sister, come with me."
After Xia Changze finished speaking, he slipped away without even saying a word to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.
Su Nuan was puzzled, but she followed him anyway, leaving Mu Yunting standing there alone sulking.
He also wanted to go and listen to what the two siblings were talking about, but before he could think of an excuse, he left.
What should I do? I kind of want to eavesdrop!
So Su Nuan followed Xia Changze to the guest room. As soon as she entered, she saw Liao Xinyi sitting in the room. If there hadn't been little Danggui beside her, she would have thought that the two were together.
As soon as the two entered, Xia Changze closed the door tightly.
Su Nuan saw that he looked serious and wondered what he was going to say to her next.
"Sit down."
Xia Changze pointed at the chair and said.
Su Nuan sat down obediently. Her butt felt soft because of a pillow.
"Dr. Liao, please take my pulse!"
Su Nuan was shocked. Did her third brother know that she was pregnant? That could only be Xinyi who told him! Su Nuan looked at Liao Xinyi.
The latter shook his head gently at her and said calmly, "Mr. Xia, don't worry. My senior brother has treated Concubine Xia. He didn't ask her to rest, which means that she is fine."
"I know that, but if she faints in front of me one day, I'll be worried. It's just right that you're here. You can take her pulse and see what's wrong."
Xia Changze's worry was not fake, and he looked very serious when he said this.
Liao Xinyi smiled faintly and said to Su Nuan in a gentle voice: "Give me your hand."
Su Nuan was a little nervous. It had been a few days since Imperial Physician Yao had examined her pulse, and she didn't know if he could tell that she was pregnant. If he did, Xinyi must not tell anyone!
Her slightly cool fingertips rested on Su Nuan's wrist. She wanted to wink at Liao Xinyi, but she failed to catch his eye after trying several times. She was getting anxious when she heard Liao Xinyi speak.
"Concubine Xia is fine, just be careful not to drink. The New Year is coming soon, and there will be various banquets. You must remember not to drink."
When Liao Xinyi said this, she looked at Su Nuan with a smile. Su Nuan thought that she should have asked about the pregnancy, but to be sure, she still asked, "Can you confirm what Doctor Yao said before?"
"I'm sure."
Su Nuan felt both happy and sad.
"decide what?"
Xia Changze asked.
Su Nuan quickly replied: "I'm sure I just caught a mild cold and I'm completely healed now."
Xia Changze frowned and looked at Liao Xinyi, and asked, "Is it true?"
Liao Xinyi could not lie, so in order to avoid letting the cat out of the bag, she just nodded slightly.
"Don't lie to me, Doctor Liao. If there's anything wrong with my little sister, don't hide it for her."
Liao Xinyi seemed to have thought of something, hesitated for a moment, and finally said nothing.
Su Nuan was thinking about Mu Yunting's rare treasure. When it was almost time for dinner, she was worried that Mu Yunting would go to the Chen Guogong Mansion for a banquet. Then she could only wait for him to come back to see the treasure.
My curiosity has been aroused and I really can't wait.
"Brother, are you okay? I'll leave first. His Highness is still waiting for me."
Xia Changze blushed again when he thought of what she had just said, but he still had to show his brother's authority in front of his sister and Dr. Liao, so he coughed lightly and said, "Go back, serve His Royal Highness the Crown Prince well, and try to get pregnant with the Emperor's eldest grandson as soon as possible."
Su Nuan rolled her eyes halfway when she heard Liao Xinyi hurriedly say, "No, you can't sleep with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince now."
Xia Changze asked in surprise: "Why?"
"Her body is not fit for pleasure right now."
"Didn't you say that she is fine? Why is it inappropriate..."
Xia Changze was embarrassed to say the word "Chenghuan".
Liao Xinyi replied: "Because of her"
"Third brother, do you also want to know about women's daily lives?"
"what?"
Xia Changze was completely embarrassed.
