After rebirth, the Prime Minister's wife always wanted to leave her father behind and keep her

Cui Yuanqing smiled softly, put his trembling hand on Cheng Songan's lower abdomen, and asked: "You... me, we..."

His eyes were full of anticipation, but he didn't dare to ask those words.

Cheng Songan had never known that Cui Yuanqing could have such a humble moment. Like a child praying for a reward, an indescribable feeling surged in her heart. In her previous life, she was the one who humbly prayed for him to look back at her.

She stopped crying, looked into his eyes, and said in the same indifferent way as he had in his previous life: "What do you mean by yours and mine? You don't think I'm pregnant, do you?"

Cui Yuanqing's eyes were a little dim, and he didn't say anything.

Cheng Songan asked back, "Even if there was, how could there be a reaction so quickly? I'm just having my period and my stomach is uncomfortable."

Cui Yuanqing forced a smile, but the disappointment was not well concealed. It was unclear whether he was talking to himself or to her: "It doesn't matter, it will come sooner or later."

Cheng Songan's face darkened. It was her own business that she wanted to have a child, but Cui Yuanqing also had the same idea, which made her a little angry. Once she had a common expectation with him, this matter would not be in line with her future plans.

"Go quickly." Cheng Songan said coldly, "Do you still want to wait for another group of people to come and hunt you down? Enough people have died today."

If he was caught, he would be charged with deceiving the emperor and assassinating the prince, and the entire Cheng family would be implicated.

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard sporadic footsteps coming towards this side.

Cheng Songan decisively picked up the sleeve arrow that Cui Yuanqing had pulled out and stabbed it towards his shoulder, but his hand, which had just been raised in the air, was suddenly caught by Cui Yuanqing.

His eyebrows were furrowed, his eyes were complicated and angry: "What are you going to do?"

Cheng Songan frowned and glared at him: "How can I deceive Prince Jin if I don't do this? How can I make people believe that I escaped from the hands of criminals?"

Cui Yuanqing laughed out of anger, looked at her deeply, suddenly grabbed her hand and pulled it towards him, held her face and kissed her. His mouth tasted bloody, and her mouth was not sweet either as she had just vomited.

Cheng Songan pushed him away and said angrily, "Cui Yuanqing, what are you crazy about? What time is it? Why don't you leave quickly?"

Cui Yuanqing stroked her hair and assured her like coaxing a child: "I will not die. You don't need to hurt yourself to save me at any time."

If it were in the previous life, Cheng Songan would probably be moved by him, but even if she didn't hurt herself in the previous life, wasn't there someone who hurt her? Wasn't he the culprit?

She pushed his hand away irritably and said calmly, "I was just trying to save myself."

Cui Yuanqing pulled his hand back, looked at the person coming over there and said, "You are covered in blood, and you fell down next to Princess Xiang and Duan Zhuyu. Who dares to come and check whether the injury of the wife of a third-rank court official is real or not?"

Cheng Songan was stunned. This was a good idea, but how could he be so stupid as to stab himself?

She turned away somewhat embarrassedly: "Then go quickly."

Cui Yuanqing did not move. After watching her throw away the sleeve arrow in her hand, he slowly stood up, jumped up, and landed on the low wall.

Afterwards, Ming Zhan appeared at the entrance of the alley with a group of people, followed by the extremely anxious Duan Zhuyu.

"Sister Cheng!" Duan Zhuyu didn't care about the dirt on the ground and ran over. "How are you?"

Cheng Songan leaned against the wall and cried to her, "Miss Yu, that villain killed so many people and almost killed me. Fortunately, you came..."

Duan Zhuyu was shocked: "Are you injured?"

As soon as she finished speaking, Ming Zhan took a step ahead of her, strode in front of her, squatted down and asked, "Is Madam Cui okay?"

Cheng Songan lowered his head in embarrassment. It was true that Ming Zhan was warm-hearted, but he was also a bit reckless. As a man, he should have avoided suspicion at this time. Why did he come up to check?

Fortunately, Duan Zhuyu rudely pushed him away and rushed over to say, "Uncle, you are a foreigner, just go and catch the assassin."

Cheng Songan then tremblingly helped Duan Zhuyu up and pointed in a random direction, saying, "The assassin heard you were coming and fled from there."

Ming Zhan waved his sleeves and said to the people who followed him: "Go!"

"Is Madam Cui in serious condition?" Prince Jin asked calmly while standing at the entrance of the alley. The people behind him had already surrounded the alley tightly.

Lu Qingshan was also among them.

Ming Zhan then stood further away, pointed in the direction Cheng Songan had just mentioned, bowed and said to King Jin: "Your Highness, when I came here, the assassin fled in that direction."

Prince Jin glanced at the corpses on the ground with a shrewd look, then looked at Cheng Songan who was covered in blood, and looked behind him calmly. Those people scattered in various directions to chase.

Cheng Songan looked at Ming Zhan gratefully. His words saved her reputation. Ming Zhan nodded lightly, which was considered as an agreement.

Duan Zhuyu supported Cheng Songan, looked behind Prince Jin, and said unhappily, "Where are my aunt and uncle Prince Xiang?"

"Prince Xiang is frightened. Your aunt has taken him back to the palace. I will send someone to follow you to send Madam Cui back." Prince Jin was also a little helpless. After all, he was a member of the royal family, and it would not be glorious for him to be so timid.

Duan Zhuyu muttered, "My uncle is too timid. Sister Cheng, hold me up. The maids will be here soon."

"Let me do it." Lu Qingshan stood silently behind Duan Zhuyu and said loudly to King Jin, "The Cheng family and the Lu family are old friends. I can call Miss Cheng my sister. In times of emergency, we should treat each other as real siblings."

Cheng Songan was thinking about what he meant when his body suddenly lightened and he was picked up by him.

Even though Duan Zhuyu had always been spoiled and domineering, she had never seen such a scene before. She stood there in a daze with her mouth open.

"Lu Qingshan, put me down!" Cheng Songan was anxious and angry, and scolded in a low voice, "This is not a childhood, do you and I still have our dignity?"

Lu Qingshan had a righteous look on his face. Even though he was hugging her, he didn't hold her too tightly. He stood tall and straight, with no frivolous air at all. He walked straight ahead and asked, "Where are you hurt?"

Cheng Songan's momentum weakened immediately, and he only said: "I'm not seriously injured. Put me down, I can walk by myself."

Lu Qingshan still didn't look at her. He strode to the alley entrance. When he saw Qiangwei and Duan Zhuyu's maid Xiao Lingdang coming towards him breathlessly, he put her down.

Seeing her young lady being carried out by Lu Qingshan, Qiangwei was so frightened that she even forgot to greet him. She quickly rushed over and helped her get on the carriage that followed.

Lu Qingshan knocked outside the curtain.

Cheng Songan lifted a corner and said, "Thank you, Minister Lu."

Lu Qingshan frowned and said, "If you don't want to call me Lu Jiu, you can call me Brother Shi, right? Why do you only call me Minister Lu?"

Cheng Songan hesitated for a moment and lifted the curtain again: "Lu Xiaojiu, your ambition is to take back the five towns in the northern border. Don't get involved in the fight between these people."
