Su Qian was stunned. We?

"We are... not doing well now, are we?"

"I'm already here with you."

Yan Xuanye seemed dissatisfied with this answer. The expectation in his eyes disappeared instantly, and he said in a cold voice, "I hope so."

After saying that, he threw back the quilt, stood up, dressed, tidied himself up without saying a word, and then left the tent.

Su Qian looked at his departing back, feeling lost in thought.

……

With the arrival of spring, the sound of melting ice and snow continued all night long. In Danxia City, Lu Huan did not sleep all night.

The sky finally brightened. Lu Huan got up and walked to the desk. She took out the seal that Su Qian had given her from the drawer and rubbed it carefully in her palm.

Zhong Guang knocked on the door, "Master."

Lu Huan put down the seal and said, "Come in."

Ever since Lu Huan became the king, he appointed Zhong Cang and Zhong Wei as third-rank generals of the Cloud Banner. The two of them have become increasingly busy. Now, Zhong Guang has taken over the position of secret guard for Lu Huan.

"how?"

Zhong Guang told what he had found out one by one, "There is no news in the Fengyuan army. Yan Xuanye has blocked the news. The soldiers under them don't know that the goddess has returned to Yan Xuanye."

Lu Huan was not surprised at all. "I know. Did you find out anything else?"

Zhong Guang: "There is one more."

Lu Huan: "What?"

"I have asked people to keep a close eye on the entry and exit of foreigners in their army, and found that Yan Xuanye had consulted a doctor."

Lu Huan raised his eyes, "Doctor?"

"Who are you treating?"

Zhong Guang: "It's not a cure. Yan Xuanye just told him to prescribe a prescription for a pregnancy-aiding medicine. It doesn't matter the price or the ingredients, as long as it works."

A hint of hostility flashed in Lu Huan's eyes, and the book in his hand fell onto the desk with a "click".

"Pregnancy medication?"

Zhong Guang nodded: "Yes."

The last bit of hope in Lu Huan's heart suddenly shattered.

He had thought about this problem before letting Su Qian return to Yan Xuanye, and at that time he felt that he didn't care.

That's because he knew that Su Qian didn't want to have Yan Xuanye's child.

He knew that Su Qian had used birth control pills before. With Su Qian's intelligence, he would not be able to stop her from going back even if Yan Xuanye forced her to have sex with him.

He also believed that Su Qian must have a way to avoid pregnancy.

As long as there is no child, as long as Su Qian doesn't love Yan Xuanye, he doesn't care about anything else!

But Yan Xuanye actually forced her to drink pregnancy medicine!

It seems that Yan Xuanye is determined to use the child to force her to stay.

Lu Huan suppressed his panic, thought quickly for two seconds, and then said, "Send a letter to Su Zhao for me."

Zhong Guang: "Yes, I will definitely do it."

……

Su Qian rested for a few days and felt better. During these days, Yan Xuanye came over every night, but he didn't do anything else but just slept on the same bed with her.

As long as he doesn't bother her, Su Qian doesn't care. She just thinks of it as having someone warming her bed.

There is just one thing. Although Yan Xuanye has been much gentler towards her these days, he has not yet removed the anklets that restrict her, nor does he allow her to go out.

Su Qian leaned against the window, feeling a complex mix of emotions in her heart.

Now that she is trapped here and the weather is getting warmer, if the two countries start a rebellion, what should she do to make Yan Xuanye withdraw his troops?

While thinking this, a white dove flew in to the window. Su Qian just took a glance at it and subconsciously tried to catch it. The white dove was very well-behaved and did not move while she gently held it in her hands and brought it into the tent.

Su Qian quickly closed the window, thinking that no one should notice her actions.

There was a piece of paper tied to the white dove's leg. Su Qian took it off and opened it. There was no words on it, only a red font under a seal - Zhao.

This was the seal she gave to Lu Huan. At that time, Su Qian told her that she should use this seal when writing to her in the future so that it would not be easy for others to find out it was him.

The look of disdain on his face at that time is still vivid in my mind, but now he is using it again.

Su Qian could roughly understand what Lu Huan meant. He was asking if she was well and how she was doing now.

Thinking of this, Su Qian picked up the pen and wrote: Everything is fine, don't worry.

Then he stuffed it into the small bamboo hole on the pigeon's leg, opened the window coffin, and released the pigeon when no one was around.

White pigeons can only deliver messages in one direction, but Su Qian knew that even though there was only one white pigeon, the letter would definitely reach Lu Huan.

Since he did this, he must have been sure of it.

Yan Xuanye now has great distrust of her and feels insecure, but Lu Huan may contact her at any time. Su Qian can only reassure him through this message.

In particular, it would be best not to contact her in the short term, so as to avoid being discovered by Yan Xuanye. He would become jealous and angry, and then all her efforts in pretending to be good and pleasing would be ruined.

……

After receiving the letter, Lu Huan's face did not show any lively expression.

"Everything is fine, don't think about it."

Is this your answer? Su Zhao.

He had clearly sent someone to inquire about the news that Yan Xuanye had sent someone to prepare a pregnancy-preserving medicine for her to take. He didn't believe that Su Qian didn't know that it was a pregnancy-preserving medicine. If she knew, why didn't she tell him?

As long as she showed the slightest reluctance, he could take her away at any time, but Su Qian told him that everything was fine and not to worry.

The heart that had been cold and silent for many years was now beating violently because of panic.

He angrily crumpled the note in his hand, "Su Zhao, you wouldn't really fall in love with Yan Xuanye and not want to come back, would you?"

Lu Huan felt somewhat annoyed with his original decision. Why should he respect her opinion and let her go back to Yan Xuanye, just for the invisible and intangible love she mentioned?

Love is such an illusory thing. Even if it is love, it may disappear again. Only what you hold in your hands is solid and reliable.

Moreover, when she was around, he felt at ease. Now that she was not around, he always felt uneasy.

……

"goddess."

Su Qian's eyes lingered on the medical book in front of him, "What's the matter?"

Bai Ying: "His Royal Highness the Prince of Yan said that he will come to dine with the goddess tonight."

Su Qian was slightly stunned. Why was he suddenly willing to have a meal and talk with her?

Before, she sent someone to tell him that she wanted to see him, but he refused to come. Later, although he was willing to come, he only came after nightfall.

After a long while, Su Qian slowly spoke, "I want to cook a few dishes for King Yan. Please ask King Yan if you can let me go to the kitchen."

Bai Ying: "Yes, I'll go right away."

……

"She wants to cook?"

"Yes, the goddess said she wanted to cook for him personally and make a few dishes that His Royal Highness the Prince of Yan would like to eat."

Yan Xuanye lowered his head and remained silent, lost in thought.

She said she wanted to cook for him personally, but she was probably trying to test him and get him to take off the chains on her feet.

He naturally hoped that her thoughts would be on him, but her actions now only made him feel that she had an ulterior motive, not out of sincerity, but just to please him.

"Forget it. Go tell the goddess that she doesn't need to do it herself. The food will be delivered by the kitchen staff. Tell her to have a good rest and just take care of her body."

He thought about it and decided that no matter what her purpose was, he didn't want to give her another chance to leave him.
