Not long after the four-day hunt ended, I became pregnant.
This happy event undoubtedly diluted the sadness that Pei Yuan's death brought to me.
"How could...how could..." It was so sudden that I felt a little at a loss.
Liu Chi smiled lightly and said, "Congratulations, princess."
I cried with joy and held my stomach. My dream finally came true, but how could this happen?
Liu Chi explained: "The birth of a new life is accompanied by the death of an old life. This is something that the Wu clan cannot change for thousands of years."
Everything is clear. Pei Yuan chose to die not only for Yan Qingqing, but also partly for me. He exchanged his own life for the life of a newborn.
When I learned the result, I cried bitterly. I was not so sad at the funeral.
Raindrops were falling from the sky, intertwined with my sobs.
"Why are you not sad at all?" I cried and looked at him.
Liu Chi smiled lightly. I really don't understand why he can smile so comfortably and calmly at this time.
"They are already dead. No matter how sad he is, he doesn't know that the princess is pregnant with an heir now. She should take care of herself. This is what Pei Yuan paid for with his life."
When he said this, I understood. Yes, I am sad and sad that Pei Yuan will not come back.
When Xia Yan returned to the palace from the imperial court, he saw my eyes were red and swollen, and he couldn't help but be startled: "What's wrong?"
Liu Chi stepped forward respectfully and said, "Your Majesty, congratulations, you are going to be a father."
Xia Yan was looking at me with a worried look on his face. Suddenly, when Liu Chi said this, the expression on his face froze in that spot.
His reaction was a few beats slow. He first looked at Liu Chi, then at me, and his lips trembled a few times: "Seriously?"
"If your Majesty doesn't believe it, you can ask Wang Bo to come over and take a look." Liu Chi said with a smile on his face.
Liu Chi's medical skills were already daunting. There was no one he couldn't save but he didn't want to save. Xia Yan should trust him, but Xia Yan still called Wang Bo.
It makes me a little funny that he is so cautious. What's the matter? Are you afraid that Liu Chi will lie to make him happy?
Wang Bo came in like a gust of wind, and was hurriedly summoned into the palace by Xia Yan, thinking that something serious had happened.
"Kowtow to the king."
"No gifts, come and see the queen."
After Wang Bo thanked him, Xiao Guozi quickly spread a soft cushion on the ground for him to kneel on. Wang Bo quickly took out a piece of gauze, spread it on my wrist, and then knelt in front of me with his back straight.
In fact, he is so old that he doesn't need to kneel, but Wang Bo insists on doing it, and there is nothing I can do about it.
Wang Bo first used his right hand, frowned and thought for a while, then changed to his left hand, and then to his right hand.
After going back and forth several times, Xia Yan, who was always known for his calmness, became a little helpless: "What happened?"
Wang Bo took a deep breath, turned 180 degrees, and kowtowed to Xia Yan: "Congratulations, Your Majesty, Congratulations, Your Majesty, Your Majesty, your Majesty is already more than a month pregnant."
These words were like a strong wind, blowing away all the doubts that had previously enveloped Xia Yan's face.
"Hahahaha... Okay, great, great." Xia Yan actually picked me up in front of Wang Bo and Liu Chi and spun me around the Panlong Palace.
I saw the carved dragons and painted phoenixes passing in front of me, as well as Xia Yan's face that couldn't conceal the joy.
I no longer have to worry about whether I will become a burden to Xia Yan. I can finally continue to have children for him.
