"The princess is really broad-minded..." Huan'er couldn't help but praise her, showing awe to the princess.
Probably only someone like the princess is qualified to work side by side with the King of Luoyang to rule the country and bring peace to the world!
Wei Zijin smiled noncommittally, and was about to find the housekeeper to ask if Shen Rui had been persuaded, when he heard the servant coming to report that Miss Qiuyue was back.
When Xiao Jingyao went to war, Qiu Yue did not go with him, but she shouldered the important task of being a spy and was responsible for delivering news between the King of Luoyang and other kings. She was busy traveling almost every day.
When Qiu Yue came back, the old housekeeper of the palace and others gathered around her and asked about her current situation. After Qiu Yue drank a cup of tea, she took a breath and said to the old housekeeper: "Steward Chen, I'm going to see the princess first!"
When Qiuyue saw Wei Zijin and saw that the princess looked good, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief. She took out a copper coin wrapped with red thread from her arms and handed it to Wei Zijin respectfully.
"Princess, the prince asked his slave to give this to you, Princess. He said that when you see this copper coin, you will understand what he means..."
Under the puzzled looks of Qiao Xiang and Huan'er, Wei Zijin took the copper coin wrapped with red thread. He could imagine that even though Xiao Jingyao was fighting, he still missed him less, and he couldn't help but feel ups and downs in his heart.
Why didn't she miss him? If it weren't for their child in her belly, she would have been by his side and fighting alongside him at this time!
Seeing the princess silently holding the copper coin wrapped with red thread, Qiuyue was smart enough not to ask any more questions.
Wei Zijin was silent for a while, then slowly said: "Qiuyue, you have been helping the prince and the kings pass the news. In your opinion, how long will this battle last?"
Qiuyue thought for a moment, frowned and replied: "The prince has captured the most important states and counties, but the governor of Yongzhou is stubbornly resisting. It is now difficult to capture Yongzhou. With the large number of troops in the imperial court, it may take several months!"
Wei Zijin nodded, not surprised by Qiu Yue's words: "Although there are no strong generals in the court, there are many loyal and good people stationed in the prefectures and counties. It is not easy to capture them all... "
When Qiao Xiang heard this, she was a little worried for the princess: "The prince has been away at war, wouldn't it be that he can't come back in time to accompany the princess to give birth to an heir?"
Although there were always doctors in the palace checking the princess's pulse, Qiao Xiang felt that it would be too desolate when she thought that the princess would have to give birth to an heir alone while the prince was still fighting abroad!
Qiuyue glanced at Wei Zijin's lower abdomen, her brows furrowed with sadness.
It’s not that she doesn’t know that the princess is weak, and it’s precisely because of this that this first child is particularly important. If the princess has some shortcomings, then the prince may... Qiuyue doesn’t even dare to think about it!
"Princess, this servant will go and report to the prince. I believe that the prince will come back to the princess a few days before she gives birth to an heir no matter what!"
Qiuyue said with cupped hands, Qiaoxiang and Huan'er also nodded, agreeing with Qiuyue's statement.
Wei Zijin shook his head and stopped Qiu Yue's approach: "No, I can no longer fight with him, and I must not let him be distracted at this time! Qiu Yue, please bring my words to him. I will be fine and I will give birth safely. I and his heirs will allow him to fight with peace of mind, and he will never abandon his soldiers and rush back to me!"
"Princess—" Qiao Xiang and Huan'er didn't expect Wei Zijin to say that, so they both shouted anxiously.
