Quickly wear a child: The heirless bosses love me like their life

Although it took some time, the morning court was held smoothly.

After some consideration, he finally named the year of his accession to the throne the first year of Zhenli, taking the "Li" in Pei Yanli's name and the homonym of "Zhen" in Ye Zhenzhen's name.

In order to distinguish the two emperors, Pei Yanli was respectfully called Emperor Li and Jiang Dai was respectfully called Empress.

Just when things were getting on track, the palace maid came into the palace to report.

"Empress, Princess Hua An is outside seeking an audience."

Jiang Dai was a little surprised. Because of her pregnancy and state affairs, she hadn't paid attention to Liu Mingjie and others for a long time.

If Princess Hua An hadn't come to visit her suddenly, she would have almost forgotten that she still had a strategy mission to complete.

"Let her in."

Jiang Dai said.

The palace maid nodded and left, then turned around and brought Princess Hua An in.

Two months have passed since the day Princess Hua An fainted.

Ever since informing Liu Mingjie to take the pregnant Princess Hua'an away, Jiang Dai has never seen him again. Princess Hua'an did not even attend Pei Chengwang's funeral and Pei Yanli's coronation ceremony. It was as if she had disappeared.

But according to the news that Jiang Dai heard by chance, Liu Mingjie did go to the Hanlin Academy to work every day, but he was very low-key every day, which made people doubt whether he was the same ambitious top scholar.

“…Meet the Empress.”

Seeing Jiang Dai, Princess Hua An reluctantly knelt down and saluted, then stood up again.

The once arrogant eyes were now visibly haggard, and the whole person's spirit was completely different from before, as if he had been reborn.

"Princess, what have you been busy with recently? I haven't seen you for a long time. Is the baby in your belly making trouble?"

Jiang Dai asked softly, like a kind and caring elder.

But in fact, from the moment Princess Hua An came in, Jiang Dai noticed Hua An's flat belly.

Hua An has been pregnant for a month longer than Jiang Dai. Logically, she should have been showing signs of pregnancy long ago. But now her calves are so flat. There is only one explanation: the baby is gone.

However, how the child died remains to be discussed.

Princess Hua'an subconsciously lowered her head, stroked her belly, then looked up with a complicated look.

"Thank you for your concern, Queen, but... the baby in my belly has died due to an accident."

"This child is unlucky. He came at the wrong time..."

Jiang Dai pretended to comfort her.

"Princess, don't be sad. The child is sensible. Maybe he has gone to accompany his uncle..."

But I was complaining in my heart that Pei Chengwang was still alive and didn't need anyone to accompany him.

But from Princess Hua An's words, Jiang Dai had already guessed that Hua An had given up the child on her own initiative.

No wonder she hasn’t appeared for a while. She must have had a miscarriage and is recuperating at home.

However, Princess Hua An definitely didn't come to see her at this time to chat.

Sure enough, after speaking a few more words, Princess Hua An finally revealed her true purpose.

"Empress... on the day of my wedding with Prince Consort, you said that you were Prince Consort's child bride. Is this true or false?"

Princess Hua'an stared at Jiang Dai, as if exploring something.

Jiang Dai nodded calmly.

"Of course it's true, but I also want to thank my husband. After all, if he hadn't kicked me out of the Liu family that day, how could I have achieved such success now?"

Everyone can hear the sarcasm in the words.

Princess Hua An of course heard it, but she gritted her teeth and still said:

"In that case, Hua An has an unwelcome request, and I hope the Empress can agree to it."

"Since that day, the Prince Consort has been losing his appetite. He said that you misunderstood him and hoped to find an opportunity to explain things to you in person."

"In a few days, it will be my birthday. I would like to use this birthday banquet to clear up the misunderstanding between the Empress and the Prince Consort."

"Then please ask the Empress to come to the Princess's residence!"

After saying this, she lowered her head and looked at her toes, waiting for Jiang Dai's answer.

interesting!

Jiang Dai curled his lips and smiled.

Hua An's attitude made it seem like he was unwilling to come, but had to come for some reason.

Besides, Liu Mingjie and Hua An invited me to the princess's residence, so they definitely didn't have any good tricks up their sleeves, but...

"Princess, you are so polite. Since you have invited me personally, I will definitely attend your birthday party on time. I also have something to do and want to... talk to the Prince Consort in person."

In Jiang Dai's last sentence, there was a hint of ambiguity in his tone.

But Princess Hua'an seemed not to notice. She hurriedly thanked him and said a few polite words before taking her leave and leaving the palace.

After Pei Yanli learned about Princess Hua'an's purpose and their conversation, he became jealous again.

"Giving her two small gifts for her birthday is enough. Why do you need to attend in person? Or are you looking forward to meeting Liu Mingjie in person?"

Pei Yanli emphasized the last four words "meet in person".

Jiang Dai was at a loss whether to laugh or cry, and only by kissing and coaxing did he finally appease the jealous person.

If the court officials knew that the emperor, who appeared dignified and aloof in public, was actually like this in private, who knows how much they would gossip.

"I think Liu Mingjie and Hua An are a little strange, so I plan to investigate it myself."

"Of course, I have prepared some small means of self-defense in advance, and I will definitely ensure my own safety. And you don't have to worry too much, because..."

Jiang Dai held Pei Yanli's hand.

"When the time comes, you will go with me, but... I may have to inconvenience you a bit."

When Pei Yanli heard that Jiang Dai was going to take him there, he immediately perked up, his words stopped being sour, and his attitude became positive.

That was a close call. I almost thought I was going to become a left-behind husband!

As for Jiang Dai's last words, that he should be wronged, Pei Yanli didn't take it to heart at all. It was just a small grievance. He had been a hostage and a blind man before, so he could endure it.

However, when the day of Princess Hua'an's birthday banquet arrived, Pei Yanli still backed out.

"Zhenzhen...why don't I go today? I'll let Jiang Si, He San, Hu Er and the others follow you..."

Looking at the large-sized palace maid clothes in front of him, Pei Yanli's face was full of rejection.

My wife never told me that this little grievance is because I am a man dressed as a woman!

Jiang Dai looked at Pei Yanli with tears in her eyes and a pitiful tone.

"Wuwuwu, husband, you don't love me anymore. You knew I might be in danger, but you were unwilling to accompany me..."

Pei Yanli was unable to resist the alternative way of acting like a spoiled child, and he immediately raised his hands in surrender.

An hour later, Jiang Dai's sedan stopped at the gate of Princess Hua'an's mansion.

Princess Hua'an and Liu Mingjie went out to greet them upon hearing the news, but... when they saw the tall palace maid helping Jiang Dai out of the carriage, they were slightly stunned.

"…How come this maid is so tall?"

Princess Huaan was surprised.

Jiang Dai raised the corners of his lips and explained in a good mood:

"This palace maid has practiced martial arts since she was young. Your uncle specially sent her to protect me. Maybe she ate a lot since she was young, so she is as tall as a man."

Princess Hua'an and Liu Mingjie suddenly realized that he was a martial artist, so that was no wonder.

only……

I wonder if the sudden appearance of such a palace maid will affect their plans?

But the arrow has been put on the string and has to be shot. I can only wait until I enter the mansion and then find a way to lure it away...
