He conspired against her in his previous life, and he flirted with her on their wedding night again

In the blink of an eye, more than half a month has passed.

During this half month, two battle reports were sent from the border.

One good and one bad.

The good news is that after a bloody battle, the soldiers of the Great Chu finally recaptured one of the two cities that were captured by the Western Liang.

The bad news is that half of the food and fodder recently sent to the border was burned.

The good news did not make people particularly satisfied. After all, the city of Da Chu should not have been taken away by Xiliang. But the bad news was really bad.

To put it bluntly, the war was a war of attrition. The grain stored in the Meizhou granary for the war was sold privately by the eldest prince. Now, only a short while after the battle, half of the grain sent to the border was burned. The soldiers at the border are starving. How can this war be fought?

Although Shen Wan did not understand military tactics, she knew that the route for transporting grain and fodder was a secret of the imperial court. The fact that half of it was burned so easily must have been a leak.

Shen Wan even suspected that King Cheng was secretly instigating the eldest prince and Duke Mao to privately sell the Meizhou granary.

King Cheng has been missing since then, and there has been no news of him. Xie Jingyin left the capital under the pretext of looking for the Crown Prince of Xiliang, and his whereabouts are also unknown.

Thinking of King Cheng provoking a war and putting the people of Da Chu and Xiliang in dire straits, while she herself was living a carefree life somewhere, Shen Wan became so angry that she vomited blood whenever she thought of this possibility.

It rained for two days in Kyoto. After the rain, the sky cleared up and was as clear as a blue sky.

After breakfast, Shen Wan took Yin Shuang out to visit Princess Huai'an at Prince An's Mansion.

Shen Du entrusted Princess Huai'an to the care of Prince An and Princess An. Shen Wan and Shen Du were relieved, but Princess Huai'an was married to Shen Du after all. She was the wife of the prince of Pingyang Marquis's mansion and was pregnant. Her father and brother were both at the border, so she should visit them more often.

Two days after Shen Du went to the border, Shen Wan went to Prince An's Mansion to visit Princess Huai'an. This was her second visit.

The carriage slowly stopped in front of the gate of Prince An's Mansion.

The gatekeeper recognized it as the carriage from Prince Ling's mansion, and hurried to report to Princess An, then went down the steps to help move the footstool.

The maid led Shen Wan to the inner courtyard. As soon as they entered the second gate, Princess An came hurriedly over. She bowed to Shen Wan with a smile on her face.

Shen Wan hurriedly helped her up, "Princess An, please stop being so polite. You and Prince An helped take care of my sister-in-law. We, the Pingyang Marquis' Mansion, have already let Prince An's Mansion down."

Princess An straightened up and said, "Princess Ling, you are too polite. My Lord and I were reluctant to let Huai'an get married. After she gets married, she can live in Prince An's mansion and be in our care. We are so happy that we can't wait."

For many women, after getting married, it is difficult for them to even go back to their parents' home, let alone spend the night there.

In other words, the Pingyang Marquis Mansion is not particular, and everything is put first by Huai'an and the fetus in her belly. Princess An is satisfied with such the Pingyang Marquis Mansion from the bottom of her heart.

Of course, if there is no war on the border, it would be best if Shen Du could stay in Kyoto with Princess Huai'an.

Unfortunately, whether there will be a war at the border is not up to them. They can only hope that the war at the border will end soon and Shen Du can come back soon.

Princess An took Shen Wan to meet Princess Huai'an.

It's only been half a month since they last met, but Princess Huai'an's belly has grown bigger. When Shen Wan entered the room, Princess Huai'an was looking at the small bellyband and tiger-head shoes that the embroidery room had made for the baby in her belly. Although the birth is still two months away, these have to be prepared early.

Seeing Princess Huai'an couldn't let go of the little bellyband, Shen Wan thought of herself at that time and was also filled with joy.

Seeing Shen Wan coming in, Princess Huai'an happily showed Shen Wan the tiger-head shoes, "Do they look good?"

Shen Wan smiled and said, "It looks good."

Princess Huai'an put down her tiger-head shoes and asked Shen Wan, "Is the candied haws okay?"

Princess An couldn't understand why a noble young prince had such a down-to-earth nickname.

When it comes to children, Shen Wan has endless things to say. As the children grow up, they become more and more interesting.

Princess Huai'an touched her belly, hoping that the baby would be born soon. She said to Shen Wan, "You have Tanghulu to take care of. Everything is fine in Prince An's Mansion. You don't have to come to see me often."

Shen Wan said, "It is my eldest brother's responsibility to take care of you. He went to the border and it was wrong to entrust my eldest sister-in-law to Prince An and Princess An. It would be unreasonable for me not to come and see you more often."

Princess Huai'an said, "My fourth aunt also came to see me yesterday, and my aunt from the Yun family also came two days ago."

Not only Shen Wan, the Fourth Madam and the Yun family also care a lot about Princess Huai'an and the baby in her belly.

It was okay that the Fourth Madam came and brought more supplements. But the Yun family and Shen Wan always brought a lot of things every time they came, not only for her, but also for Prince An's Mansion.

Princess An didn't dare to accept any expensive gifts.

As a mother, isn't it her duty to take care of her daughter and grandson?

In order not to disturb Shen Wan and Princess Huai'an from their private conversation, Princess An stayed for a while and then went on with her business.

Shen Wan sat with Princess Huai'an for half an hour before leaving. Princess Huai'an insisted on sending Shen Wan out of the house with her big belly. Shen Wan couldn't persuade her, so she agreed thinking that walking more would be good for childbirth.

Princess Huai'an sent Shen Wan to the outer courtyard, and saw Prince An coming over. Shen Wan had not seen Prince An very often, and she felt that his temperament had changed a lot.

Prince An bowed to Shen Wan and left. Shen Wan smiled and said, "The prince seems to be much calmer."

Princess Huaian covered her mouth and laughed.

Shen Wan was confused by the laughter, "What are you laughing at, sister-in-law?"

Princess Huai'an smiled and said, "Your elder brother taught me a lesson."

Shen Wan, "...???"

Her elder brother was taught a lesson, yet Princess Huai'an could still laugh?

Even if a Taoist priest had predicted it before, it wouldn't be possible, right?

Princess Huai'an said, "Isn't it that Tanghulu looks like your uncle, your eldest brother? Your eldest brother was afraid that the child in my belly would look like his uncle in the future, so he disliked my eldest brother. My eldest brother complained to father. When father asked what happened, your eldest brother told the truth. My eldest brother thought that he couldn't set a bad example for his nephew who was about to be born, so he calmed down a lot and stopped doing cockfighting and dog walking."

Shen Wan didn't know whether to laugh or cry when she heard this.

In his previous life, Princess Huai'an committed suicide with her, and Prince An changed his ways. Unexpectedly, in this life, the phrase "nephew is like uncle" would make him calm.

But this is good.

Princess Huai'an saw Shen Wan off from the mansion and watched her leave in a carriage.

As the carriage returned to Prince Ling's Mansion and passed by a busy street, Yin Shuang said, "It's still early, Princess, do you want to go for a walk?"

Shen Wan didn't have anything to buy and she just wanted to go back early to be with her children, so she didn't go shopping.

However, when the carriage reached the end of the street, it slowed down, and Chen Yu reported, "Princess, Young Master Yun is coming."

Shen Wan lifted the curtain of the carriage and saw Yun Qi riding towards her. Shen Wan thought it was just a coincidence and greeted him, but Yun Qi smiled and said, "I just had something to do at Prince Ling's Mansion. I didn't expect to run into my cousin on the street."

In this case, going to Prince Ling’s Mansion is not to find her.

Shen Wan didn't ask Yun Qi what he wanted to see Xie Jingyan about, but it must be something serious.

Since they met, Yun Qi just happened to escort Shen Wan back to Prince Ling's Mansion.
