Chapter 43 Consort Jiang is Pregnant

However, Luo Chujiu frowned deeply.

She didn't understand why these people, who were clearly capable of having children, didn't want to.

She actually wanted a child of her own blood, but because of her innate mysterious constitution, she was unable to have children.

"Your Majesty, Cousin Kui Kui loves you very much. I hope you will not let her down."

After a long silence, Luo Chujiu only uttered this one sentence.

Xiao Jinglin felt guilty and nodded.

“I know, I have always known, so apart from Consort Jiang, I do not want any other woman to conceive my child.”

Upon hearing this, Luo Chujiu did not say anything more.

Nalan Qingyin roughly understood what was going on.

After Xiao Jinglin safely delivered Luo Chujiu to the Imperial Preceptor's residence, he quickly left. Now, it was Consort Jiang who needed him more, and he should spend more time with her.

After Xiao Jinglin left, Luo Chujiu became depressed and sat there in a daze.

Seeing this, Nalan Qingyin walked over with a tender heart and gently patted her head:
"What's wrong? You saved Consort Jiang, shouldn't you be happy?"

Xiao Jiu likes Consort Jiang so much, and now he has rescued her from the Empress Dowager's clutches. Logically, he should be happy, so why is he depressed?
"Fourth Senior Brother, His Majesty is clearly capable of having children, so why doesn't he want them? I want children, but I can't have them."

Luo Chujiu looked at her stomach and felt that fate was playing tricks on her.

Nalan Qingyin was taken aback upon hearing this, then comforted her:
"If you really like children, you can adopt one in the future. If you raise it well, it will be no different from your own child."

"Speaking of this, when Fourth Senior Brother and Xiao Beiming were discussing marriage, did they mention that I couldn't have children? These kinds of things should be made clear before marriage. I don't want Xiao Beiming to break up with me because I can't have children."

It's better to make things clear now. If he can't accept it, she won't marry him! She doesn't want to marry a jerk who only wants children!
"Don't worry about that. Senior brother has already talked to Xiao Beiming. He doesn't mind this matter and has sworn a blood oath that he will never despise you because of it."

If it weren't for Xiao Beiming's sincerity and willingness to swear a blood oath, Nalan Qingyin would still look down on him.

Upon hearing Nalan Qingyin's words, Luo Chujiu subconsciously raised the corners of her lips, unable to suppress it.

"Xiao Beiming is actually quite good. It seems like I wouldn't be at a disadvantage if I married him."

Looking at Luo Chujiu's upturned lips, Nalan Qingyin didn't know what to say.

“My junior sister is naturally worthy of the best man in the world. Only Xiao Beiming is not worthy of you. You don’t need to think about it.”

"I know, Fourth Senior Brother. It's almost noon, and I'm so hungry. Is there anything to eat?"

Luo Chujiu quickly snapped out of her sorrowful mood and turned to ask Nalan Qingyin for food.

Helpless, Nalan Qingyin had no choice but to have the palace servants prepare food.

"You've already stopped eating, so why are you still so greedy for food?"

All the fellow disciples in the Xuanmen sect had practiced abstaining from grains, so it didn't matter whether they ate or not. However, this junior sister, despite having already mastered the art of abstaining from grains, never had any craving for food.

Therefore, the fellow disciples would always try their best to find delicious food in order to please their junior sister.

"That's a different matter. There are so many delicious things in the world. It would be such a pity if I didn't try them all. Once I've tasted all the delicacies in the world, I will naturally be able to abstain from grains."

Luo Chujiu always had so many reasons that Nalan Qingyin was too lazy to expose her.

Luo Chujiu finished eating and prepared to meditate and rest, but was called away again by that person from Luo Heng Palace. Has her cousin Kui Kui gotten into trouble again?

Luo Chujiu didn't care about anything else and went straight to Luoheng Palace.

"Xiao Jiu, you're here! Come here—"

As soon as Consort Jiang saw Luo Chujiu, she beckoned to her, gesturing for her to sit down next to her.

At this moment, Consort Jiang was still leaning against the headboard, looking somewhat weak, but her eyes were bright and piercing when she saw Luo Chujiu.

"Cousin Kui Kui, what happened?" Luo Chu Jiu asked anxiously.

"His Majesty has already told me that if it weren't for your help, I would have been severely targeted by the Empress Dowager this time. Thank you, Xiao Jiu."

Consort Jiang held Luo Chujiu's hand tightly, expressing her heartfelt gratitude.

Luo Chujiu smiled faintly, terrified. She had thought that her cousin Kui Kui had run into trouble again.

"Cousin Kui Kui, it was nothing, I believe you are innocent."

Speaking of this, a trace of sadness appeared in Consort Jiang's eyes, "Actually, I knew that the Empress Dowager had never liked me, but I never expected that she would treat me like this."

Seeing Consort Jiang so upset, Luo Chujiu couldn't help but comfort her, "No one can be liked by everyone. It doesn't matter if the Empress Dowager doesn't like Cousin Kui Kui. I like Cousin Kui Kui, that's enough for me~~"

Upon hearing this, Consort Jiang couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"Actually, I have some good news to tell you. Although His Majesty forbids me from saying it now, I think you should know."

Upon hearing this, Luo Chujiu had a guess in her mind, but she still asked:
"what's up?"

Consort Jiang took Luo Chujiu's hand and placed it on her lower abdomen:
"There's a little thing here."

Luo Chujiu looked surprised, then her face lit up with delight. "Really?"

Consort Jiang nodded.

"That's great! Congratulations, Cousin Kui Kui! Don't worry, I won't tell anyone. I'm keeping my mouth shut!"

"Of course I trust you, otherwise I wouldn't have told you this good news. Just now, Physician Mo diagnosed that I am one month pregnant and the pregnancy is not very stable, so His Majesty wants me to stabilize the pregnancy and wait until after three months."

"Your Majesty has considered everything carefully; this is the right thing to do. I wonder if it's a little princess or a little prince? Does Cousin Kui Kui hope it's a boy or a girl?"

"As for me, I just hope that the child in my belly will be born safely. It doesn't matter whether it's a boy or a girl. His Majesty just said that I shouldn't think too much about it. It would be good if it were a prince, but if it were a princess, he would cherish her just the same."

Luo Chujiu could tell that Consort Jiang liked the child, and Xiao Jinglin hadn't lied to her; he had indeed gotten her cousin Kui Kui pregnant.

"My cousin will definitely get what she wants, and the baby in her belly will definitely grow up healthy."

"I've calculated the timeline, and the baby should be born after your wedding to the prince. Then you'll be the baby's aunt."

"That couldn't be better!"

Luo Chujiu couldn't help but grin and say, "If I can't have babies to play with, I can play with the babies my cousin has!"
Meanwhile, Xiao Jinglin immediately shared the good news of Consort Jiang's pregnancy with his good brother Xiao Beiming.

Xiao Beiming was taken aback at first, then a joyful smile appeared on his face:

"Congratulations, Your Majesty, on becoming a father soon."
