The husband who forced her to marry her couldn't keep her warm, and she didn't want him to

Mr. Wei stood a few steps away from the chief eunuch, with a respectful smile on his face, and he clasped his hands together and bowed to see him off.

Be neither humble nor arrogant, and know when to relax and work hard.

The young eunuch brought by Wang Xi took the tray from the servant with skillful movements and put away the brocade bag on it.

After carefully placing it in his arms, he followed Wang Xi in small steps, not daring to be negligent in the slightest.

The Jinyiwei in the courtyard and the imperial physicians from the Imperial Medical Bureau also slowly walked out of Zhulige.

As these people left, the whole yard suddenly became much quieter.

The cold moonlight fell on the ground, as if covering the yard with a layer of silver frost, adding a bit of tranquility.

Madam Jiang and Gu Jinchu supported each other and slowly walked towards the door of the study. Their figures were stretched out in the moonlight, and each step seemed particularly heavy.

In the study, the Duke and Mr. Jiang were sitting in chairs, their similar faces looking serious and solemn.

Doctor Wu sat beside the Duke and whispered, "...It looks dangerous, but fortunately Fifth Master is young and has a good foundation. He will not be in danger after he wakes up..."

The Duke sat in the chair with a majestic posture, as straight as a pine tree. There was no expression on his majestic face, but he gave people an inexplicable sense of security.

The Liang crown on Mr. Jiang's head was held in the hands of the servant behind him. He was wearing official uniform and obviously had not had time to return to Chenxiang Pavilion.

Gu Jinchu was just outside. When he heard Wang Xi say that the Fifth Master had not woken up yet, everything went dark before his eyes.

Now hearing what Doctor Wu said, he became even calmer and his eyes became determined.

When Mrs. Jiang saw her daughter-in-law's bulging belly, she couldn't help but think of her youngest son's injury, and her tears fell uncontrollably again.

Worried about affecting her daughter-in-law's mood, she turned her head and pressed the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief.

Mr. Jiang came over, supported Madam Jiang and comforted her softly, "Mother, the imperial physician of the Imperial Hospital and Mr. Wu both said that Xiaowu is fine... Don't be too sad. Xiaowu will blame himself when he wakes up."

Then he turned to Gu Jinchu and said, "Sister-in-law, don't hurt yourself."

Jiang Nanyi looked at his fifth brother's wife, who was not even as old as his eldest son. Seeing her bewildered look, he could not help but speak more gently:

"There is no underground dragon in Zhuli Pavilion. My sister-in-law and mother should go back first." There was worry in his eyes, as if he was coaxing a child.

One of them is old and the other is pregnant with twins, so they both cannot get emotionally excited or overworked.

Gu Jinchu took a deep breath. She wanted to see the Fifth Master.

She wanted to hear him tell her in person that he was fine.

It was he who told her that he would take care of everything, so that she could rest assured and rest assured to take care of her pregnancy at home.

This morning, she personally sent Master Wu away from Yuanyuan Hall. Now she learned that he was lying in Zhuli Pavilion, not only injured, but also unknown when he would wake up.

She couldn't accept this situation. She had to see with her own eyes that Fifth Master was safe and sound before she could feel at ease.

Thinking this in her heart, she directly expressed her thoughts.

There was persistence and determination in her eyes, and an eager tone in her voice, "I want to go see Master Wu, I want to see with my own eyes that he is okay!"

Old Madam Jiang was holding Gu Jinchu's hand. She could understand her daughter-in-law's feelings at the moment, but she was also worried that she wouldn't be able to handle it.

"Jinchu, your second brother is right. The temperature in Zhuli Pavilion is too low. It's not good for you and the children."

"Let's go back first... Wait until Xiaowu wakes up and his body is stable, and then have someone send him back to Yuanyuan Hall. You can come and take care of him, how about that?"

The Duke, who was sitting in the upper armchair, spoke up, "Xiao Wu's wife is here just in time. Let her go see Xiao Wu!"

His voice was steady and powerful, with unquestionable majesty.

Madam Jiang looked at the Duke, frowned slightly, and her face was full of disapproval.

Then his tone became stern, "Nonsense, Jin Chu is pregnant..."

After hearing this, Gu Jinchu smiled and said, "Mother, it's because my daughter-in-law is pregnant. Fifth Master knows that I came to see him, so he won't be able to bear to sleep too long."

The Duke of Guo, who was sitting at the head, nodded and raised his hand to instruct the servants, "Take Madam Wu over there, and prepare the brazier, hot water bottle, hand warmer...all the things to keep warm."

Then he said, "Everyone has not had dinner yet, please have someone bring it to Zhuli Pavilion."

The door to Master Jiang Wu's bedroom was pushed open. Tianqing, who was guarding inside, was stunned at first when he saw his wife come in, then he turned aside and bowed.

Tianqing's face was full of surprise, and then he looked at He You who was following behind his wife.

When the Fifth Master returned to Zhuli Pavilion, he was still somewhat conscious. He had said not to let his wife know, and even more so not to let her come.

He You shook his head at him and pulled him to guard the door together.

After Gu Jinchu stepped into the room, she saw a familiar figure lying on the bed. The voice talking behind her became distant until she blocked it out.

There was a faint smell of medicine in the room, and the flickering candlelight added a hazy atmosphere to the whole room.

Baizhi saw a brocade stool next to the table and moved it over and placed it next to the bed.

Gu Jinchu shook his head and slowly sat down on the edge of the bed.

After sitting down, I realized that my legs and my whole body felt very heavy.

She lowered her eyes and looked at Master Jiang Wu's sleeping face with his eyes closed. Usually, Master Jiang Wu would wake up before her.

Gu Jinchu rarely saw him lying there so quietly. But it was also the first time he saw him look pale and weak.

Jiang Fei said that the arrow was originally aimed at the Third Prince, but it was the Fifth Master who blocked him. The Third Prince was unharmed, but the Fifth Master was pierced through the chest and back by the arrow.

Fortunately, there were no vital injuries, but too much blood was lost during the fight.

Emperor Jianyuan is wary of the Jiang family. This is what the Fifth Master said. Does he have a way to solve it?

Gu Jinchu didn't dare to think about what would happen to her and the baby in her belly if the arrow in the assassin's hand was a little bit off.

She took Master Jiang Wu's hand, used the warmth of her palm to warm his slightly cold fingertips, and then gently placed it on her lower abdomen, "They were very well behaved today..."

The tears that had not been shed in front of Madam Jiang and the others finally couldn't be held back and fell.

Tears fell on the front of her shirt and on the pale big hand placed on her belly.

When Master Jiang Wu heard Jin Chu crying in his ear, his desire to open his eyes and wake up grew stronger, but he felt more pulling.

At the same time, he heard the words that Master Lianchi said to him before his death: "Follow your heart, do what you want... Donor, I hope you can get what you want in this life."

Master Jiang Wu only felt that his vision became bright, as if someone had opened his eyes, and he regained clarity in an instant.

But what he saw was not Jin Chu in the study, but herself sitting upright on the bed.

At this moment, her belly was much bigger than he remembered.
