Reborn as the crippled king's favorite

Chapter 34 Which one does I wear better today?

Murong Jiu suddenly approached, making Jun Yuyan freeze on the spot.

"My lord, the scar on your face is recovering well, but you still need to wear less mask and continue to apply medicine. I will send you a bottle of ointment tomorrow."

Perhaps it was because he applied medicine carefully every day that he had such a good recovery effect. Murong Jiu had a smile on her face, showing her white teeth. Looking at it like this, her lips were red and full, and her lips were very beautiful.

What is he looking at?
Jun Yuyan's heart skipped a beat and he looked away like a follower.

Murong Jiu didn't notice. She was satisfied and prepared to go back. Just as she was about to leave, her wrist was suddenly held by Jun Yuyan.

"My lord, what's wrong?"

Jun Yuyan realized that he was too eager, and let go of his hand, waving for Eunuch Shi and Chuntao to go out first.

Murong Jiu thought he had something important to say, so he straightened his expression and looked at him seriously.

Unexpectedly, he just asked: "Ajiu, how long have you been pregnant?"

Murong Jiu looked surprised, not knowing why he suddenly asked this, but she answered truthfully:

"It's been almost two months."

Jun Yuyan's heart seems to be turbulent. It's been almost two months, isn't it just right?

Was the woman that night really her?
But why does the fragrance on her body linger?
Thinking that he was worried that her pregnancy would embarrass him, Murong Jiu quickly said:
"But don't worry, Your Highness. I'm thin, and my belly won't show up until I'm pregnant at three to four months. I can wear loose clothes then, and no one will notice me soon."

"That was not what I meant."

Jun Yuyan looked at her flat belly and felt bitter in his heart because of her words. If the woman that night was her, then the child in her belly would be his own.

But because she was afraid of being discovered, she told herself that she would hide it.

He raised his eyes and asked her: "Do you know who the father of the child is?"

Murong Jiu pursed her lips. She didn't want to talk about this. She didn't want Jun Yuyan to think that she was a wanton woman who didn't even know who the father of the child was.

But she didn't want to lie either.

"I-I'm a little cold, Your Majesty, I'm going back to change clothes first."

After saying that, she lowered her head and walked out quickly. When she reached the door, she turned around and said, "Your Highness, please soak your legs quickly. Don't wait for the water to get cold."

After saying that, the person had disappeared through the door.

Jun Yuyan frowned.

That night, she didn't do it voluntarily, it was just two people tortured by drugs entangled with each other.

She should hate him. She was pregnant with a strange man's child and had to hide it for fear of being discovered. What woman wouldn't hate it?

At this moment, Jun Yuyan was almost certain that the person who was there that night was Murong Jiu.

Otherwise, why has he still not been able to find anyone after almost two months?Because the person is right in front of him.

"Come on."

The secret guard appeared, half kneeling on the ground.

"Let's check whether the second prince took the princess to the lantern festival that day."

The dark guard was startled.

He had also heard what the prince said to the princess just now, and he was still wondering why the prince was curious about whose child the princess had in her belly. What the prince meant now was that he suspected that the woman who went to Wushan with the prince that night was the princess?
"Yes, my subordinates will go now."

As it relates to the prince's heirs, this needs to be investigated clearly.

After the secret guard left, Jun Yuyan did not let Eunuch Shi come in. He took off his shoes and socks and soaked his injured leg.

An inexplicable emotion enveloped his heart like warm water at this moment.The next day, Murong Jiu did not go to the appointment with the second prince. She worked in the pharmacy for a whole day and finally prepared the ointment. Because she was afraid that Jun Yuyan would ask her about the father of her child, she asked Chuntao to deliver it to him. .

Pearl was extremely anxious, she was afraid that if she could not handle the affairs of the second prince, she would be disliked by him.

As soon as Chuntao left, she quickly advised Murong Jiu:
"Miss, I know that you are unhappy, but the matter of the substitute marriage is the fault of the Hou Mansion and has nothing to do with His Highness. The Second Highness wants to see you. If you keep him indifferent like this, the Second Highness will be sad. Please bear with me. ?"

Pearl felt that Murong Jiu was angry with the second prince. She might have thought that she was pregnant, so she could manipulate the second prince with her petty temper.

Little did he know that the second prince was just interested in her medical skills.

But Pearl didn't want to be ineffective in doing things. Seeing that Murong Jiu didn't speak, she persuaded:
"My slave, I heard that the queen is going to choose a wife for His Highness, aren't you worried? You are the one His Highness likes, and the child in your belly is the second prince's child. Only if you marry the second prince, will the child in your belly Only then can the name be justified, Miss, you have to think it over carefully!"

She saw Murong Jiu's long eyelashes blinking, thinking that what she said hit the mark, raised the corners of her mouth, and continued her words in a low voice:
"The child in your belly is the emperor's eldest grandson. If His Highness the Second Highness becomes the emperor in the future, your child will be the prince..."

Murong Jiu suddenly said in a deep voice: "Zhenzhu, you are so brave, you dare to say anything outside. Go out and kneel!"

Pearl noticed the faux pas and covered her mouth, "I know my mistake and I won't say it again. Don't punish me."

"Go kneel in the yard!"

Pearl's face turned pale, it was raining in the yard.

"You don't have to kneel, but I can't tolerate you here."

"Kneel down, slave! Kneel down, slave!"

Pearl rushed out and knelt down in the rain with a plop.

Murong Jiu's expression was unclear in the dim candlelight.

Jun Yuyan knew that Murong Jiu was making medicine for him today. He had not turned the pages of the book in his hand since dusk. Unexpectedly, he only waited for a spring peach.

After taking the ointment, Chuntao was about to leave, but Jun Yuyan stopped her by some strange mistake: "Has the princess eaten?"

Hearing this, Chuntao felt happy and quickly replied: "I used it, but the princess didn't have a good appetite, so she only ate a little."

Jun Yuyan knew that the woman was pregnant and had a bad appetite in the first three months.

"Does the Princess of Zuixianlou still like to eat pickles?"

Chuntao nodded: "We have finished eating the pickles, and the princess will have some with them every time she eats."

Jun Yuyan immediately called Eunuch Shi and asked him to go to Zuixian Tower in person.

The corners of Chuntao's mouth turned up, the prince was so kind to the young lady.

"That slave is going back first."

"Wait a minute, you, go back and tell the princess that I will go to bed tonight."

When Chuntao heard this, her eyes widened with joy, and she was filled with joy: "Yes! I'll go now, slave!"

Ever since it rained in the capital, the prince has not been to Qiyun Courtyard again. Some of the servants who were gossiping even said that the princess had been abandoned, which was very ugly. If the princess didn't want to pursue the case, she would have to tear those people's mouths apart. .

Chuntao went back happily.

Under Jun Yuyan's mask, the tips of his ears were slightly hot.

Today he was not just going through the motions like before, he was going to stay one night at Qiyun Yuan.

The child in Murong Jiu's belly was his, and he had to let the child be born more legitimately.

He opened the wardrobe and asked the secret guard: "Which one will look better on me today?"
