Li Hongyuan knew he had to change clothes, butâ
He looked down.
His hand was still in Jiang Ningâs.
âThe wound is treated. Shouldnât you let go now? Canât bear to part with this prince?â
âYouâre overthinking.â Jiang Ning shook her hand. âItâs just stiff.â
Li Hongyuan said, âSince you canât let go, letâs change like this. As your husband, I have nothing to hide from you. After all, Iâve seen you from every angle.â
âDo you think Iâll be so embarrassed by your words?â Jiang Ning lay nonchalantly. âYouâve seen what youâve seen. I donât care. Huang Ying, help me change my clothes.â
Huang Ying suppressed a smile and helped her sit up, starting to remove her clothes.
She took off the robe, then the upper garment.
As the upper garment was removed, her skin, white as jade, was revealed.
Huang Ying hesitated for a moment and asked, âPrincess Consort, should I remove the skirt too?â
âYes, take everything off. Canât you see itâs stained with blood?â
âYes.â Huang Ying reached for the belt around her waist.
Finally unable to hold back, Li Hongyuan slapped her hand away and said, âShameless woman! To be so exposed before a man, youâre downright wanton!â âWerenât you the one who said you had seen every part my body?â Jiang Ning smiled, âWhat, youâre not so daring now?â
âDo you have no sense of shame? I canât believe I have to associate with a wanton woman like you!â
Li Hongyuan turned and walked away.
Jiang Ning waved her slightly stiff left wrist and said, âAll bark and no bite.â
Huang Ying smiled, âPrincess Consort, donât bully His Highness like that.â
âWith the words you use, people might think Iâm flirting with him. Hmph.â Jiang Ning leaned on her bed to stand, making it easier for Huang Ying to help her change her skirt.
âWhen you were injured before, His Highness rushed over and saw you covered in blood. He was so scared that his face went pale. I saw it with my own eyes. It proves that he still cares about you.â
âYouâre overthinking it.â Jiang Ning flipped something out of her purse and tossed a piece of candied fruit into her mouth. âHe was just worried about the emperorâs eldest grandson.â
Upon reflection, Huang Ying realized that was indeed the case⦠At the time, the prince had first picked up the emperorâs eldest grandson.
Ah well.
After tidying up, Huang Ying called Xiaoman and carried Jiang Ning to the carriage.
Jiang Ning looked around and asked, âWhereâs Xiaoqian?â
âThe emperorâs eldest grandson is fine, just a little frightened. Heâs already been sent back to the palace.â
âAlright, good.â Jiang Ning got into the carriage with relief, only to find Li Hongyuan already inside. âWhat are you doing in my carriage?â
âGet it straight, this is my carriage.â
âWhereâs my carriage then?â
âIt was ruined by the assassins.â
ââ¦Where did the assassins come from? Were they targeting Xiaoqian?â
âNo, they were after you.â
âMe? Is it as a revenge from Marquis of Yuandongâs residence?â
âYouâre scared now?â Li Hongyuan scoffed. âI thought you were fearless and didnât care about anything.â
âIs it really them?â Jiang Ning didnât care about his sarcasm now.
âNo, it isnât.â
Jiang Ning glared at him.
Heâs being ridiculous.
âThough itâs not Marquis of Yuandong this time, who knows about the future?â Li Hongyuan continued indifferently, âThough I havenât found out the specifics yet, I suspect itâs either the King of Chen or Prince of Huai.â
Jiang Ning said, âSo itâs all because of this little bunny in my belly. It almost got me killed.â
âWhat did you call him?â
âA bunny.â
âSay it again?â
âBunny! Bunny!â
ââ¦â Li Hongyuan looked away, calmly saying, âDonât go out carelessly before giving birth..â
