Second-hand wife: Wang Ye's cute pet

Chapter 69 Pregnancy
"Princess Concubine." Liu Xueyao handed a cup of stew to An Liuyan.

An Liuyan raised her head to look at Liu Xueyao's face, sighed alas, and said as if talking to herself: "Xueyao, how long has the Crown Prince been here?"

"It's been three days." Liu Xueyao looked at An Liuyan's face and said slowly.

"He's always been with the side concubine?" An Liuyan smiled bitterly, a clear light appeared in his eyes.

"Yes."

"Alas." An Liuyan handed the stew in Liu Xueyao's hands, slowly sat up from the imperial concubine chair, and said as if thinking of something: "You accompany me to the concubine's place to have a look .”

From a distance, before approaching the concubine's courtyard, a pleasant flute sound could already be heard.

Xuan Muqing was lying on the bed, and on the small table by the window, there was an exquisite incense burner, and a thick fragrance wafted from the room.

Shen Xinlan at the side was lying on the couch beside her and playing the flute.

The man on the bed closed his eyes lightly, with a gentle and satisfied smile on his face.

An Liuyan stood outside the window, that appreciative smile pierced her heart, and her palms gradually became cold.An Liuyan wanted to move her footsteps, but the vines around her feet entangled her so tightly that she couldn't move even a little bit.

It was as if a huge stone was pressing on her chest, making it hard for her to breathe.

She took a deep breath, trying to force herself into a forced smile.

An icy murderous aura came from behind An Liuyan, An Liuyan turned instinctively, and suddenly found a cold dagger stabbing into the window, her expression changed suddenly.

Is Xuan Muqing in danger? !
She dodged and turned her body, the knife landed on her shoulder, and cut a long wound on her shoulder on the spot, bleeding profusely.

Liu Xueyao stood stiffly beside An Liuyan, her mouth was wide open, but she couldn't make a sound, her round eyes were filled with tears, presumably someone had touched her acupuncture points.She could only watch helplessly as An Liuyan was cut by the knife.

"Come here." An Liuyan yelled in horror. The man in black was dressed in black, and there was a cold killing message coming from his gloomy eyes. Seeing An Liuyan yelling, he raised the knife in his hand and He wanted to stab An Liuyan's body.

Hearing An Liuyan's exclamation, Xuan Muqing saw the figure of the man in black outside the window. He picked up the sword hanging beside the bed, and took Mu Ning who was on the bed behind him to protect him. He swung the sword like a black man. The clothes man stabbed away.

An Liuyan stood on the spot, motionless like a stone, while An'er ran in from the outside and hugged Shen Xinlan who had been frightened, and the two cried together.

At the moment of life and death, this man really cared most about his Shen Xinlan.

Xuan Muqing fought with the man in black. After a few moves, the man in black was obviously at a disadvantage. The man in black wanted to catch An Liuyan, but Xuan Muqing took the first step and pulled An Liuyan to his side .

The sound of fighting caught the attention of others, and a large number of guards surrounded him from all directions.

In the end, the disorganized man in black put the dagger on Liu Xueyao's acupuncture points.

Looking at Liu Xueyao who was held to the throat with a dagger by the man in black, Xuan Muqing suddenly rejoiced that it was not An Liuyan who was being threatened at this moment.

"Liu Xueyao." An Liuyan exclaimed from behind Xuan Muqing, Xuan Muqing's hand covered An Liuyan's cold hand, signaling her to be calm.

"She's just a slave." Xuan Muqing said sharply, "You can't escape. Let her go!"

The man laughed out loud without hesitation, "I never thought of getting out alive when I came in this time. It can be seen that the Crown Princess cares about this maid, doesn't she?"

"Let Liu Xueyao go." An Liuyan shook off Xuan Muqing's hand and shouted hoarsely like a man in black, "There is no relationship between me and the prince. The prince just married me because of the emperor's order. I Please let Xueyao go!"

"Does the princess really think I'm a three-year-old child so easy to deceive?" The man in black was completely unmoved.

"What the princess said is true." After a long silence, Xuan Muqing suddenly opened his mouth to cater to An Liuyan's words, "The prince has no feelings for the princess." Xuan Muqing's eyes rested on An Liuyan's bruised shoulders , lingered for a long time, a fleeting sting flashed in my heart, so fast that people thought it was an illusion.

Slowing down his thoughts, the man in black quickly recovered from his shock, "Is this maid important to the princess?"

"It's just a maid." Xuan Muqing's hand tightly wrapped around An Liuyan's, "How important do you think a maid can be?"

"Haha..." The man in black laughed loudly, his laughter was full of arrogance, "Even if I die, I want to be buried with the maid of your prince's mansion."

The man took out a red pill from his arms and stuffed it into Liu Xueyao's mouth, then raised the dagger high and inserted it into his chest, and fell back straight, with a weird smile on his lips.Blood spattered out, leaving shocking blood stains on Liu Xueyao's pink jacket.

"Xueyao!?" An Liuyan staggered towards Liu Xueyao's side, her hand touched Liu Xueyao's warm face, and tears rolled down her cheeks.

She has always regarded Liu Xueyao as her biological sister, but she didn't expect to harm her today?

If she hadn't brought Xueyao into the Prince's Mansion as a dowry maid that day, would things have been different?
"Heh...heh..." The man lay in a pool of blood, laughing vaguely.

"What did you eat for Xueyao?" An Liuyan ignored the wound on her shoulder, raised her fist and let it hang on the man's body, her blood-stained face was mixed with tears, completely lacking the demeanor of a princess.

"Okay... something." The man spat out a mouthful of bright red blood, weakly uttered the last sentence, his eyes widened, and he died.

"An Liuyan." Xuan Muqing covered the wound on An Liuyan's shoulder with her hand, and gently placed her other hand on An Liuyan's, trying to lift her up from the ground.

Because of Liu Xueyao, all the emotions buried in her heart were released in an instant.

An Liuyan's body froze, his expression froze, a deep chill appeared on his face, An Liuyan pushed Xuan Muqing's body away, and ran out of the yard without looking back.Seeing this, all the servants did not dare to stop the Crown Princess, and spontaneously made way.

An Liuyan kept running forward, her body tensed like a tightly drawn bow, the cold wind blew across her cheeks like a knife cut, the wound on her shoulder was constantly leaking out with blood.

She seemed to be so numb that she couldn't breathe. At this moment, she just wanted to escape, far away from Xuan Muqing's side.

An Liuyan stumbled out of the yard and rushed forward aimlessly.Before she rushed into the garden, someone locked her wrist suddenly, "An Liuyan!" Seeing An Liuyan's out-of-focus eyes, Xuan Muqing's face was extremely ugly. A maid made such an unexpected move. "Don't make a joke." The wound on her shoulder was extremely deep, and the original white clothes were already soaked in blood. Without bandaging, her body might not be able to support it.

An Liuyan pushed Xuan Muqing away forcefully, and staggered back a few steps. For some reason, tears flowed down her bloody little face.

"What's going on here?" A joking voice came into An Liuyan's ears. "The dignified prince and concubine are quarreling in the prince's mansion covered in blood. If it gets out, how decent is it?"

An Liuyan raised her head slightly, staring at the sour-purple figure with blurred eyes.

"My lord? Why are you here?" Xuan Muqing yelled towards Xuan Muchen, but An Liuyan still stayed where she was, with only tears streaming down her face.

"Princess Concubine?" Under Xuan Muchen's gaze, the servant next to him called softly.

"Pfft." A big mouthful of blood suddenly spewed out from An Liuyan's mouth.

"My lord!" The servant beside him exclaimed in surprise, it turned out that the blood spit out by An Liuyan actually sprayed straight to Xuan Muchen's chest.

Xuan Muqing was shocked, and quickly hooked An Liuyan's limp body, only to see that her face was pale, her breath was messy, and her body was covered in blood.Xuan Muqing's heart ached uncontrollably.

An Liuyan's body twitched for a moment, his gaze became dizzy, and he lost his will.Xuan Muqing hugged An Liuyan's cold body due to excessive blood loss.

"Come here, tell the imperial physician." Seeing that Xuan Muqing was holding An Liuyan's body without moving, Xuan Muchen ordered to the servant beside him.

"An Liuyan..." Xuan Muqing murmured An Liuyan's name with a gloomy expression.

He shook his head, turned and left this place of right and wrong. "Pass down the order, today's princess's affairs must not be disclosed." He walked for a while and suddenly gave an order to the guards around him. No one noticed that he clenched his fists at this moment, as if he was trying to hold back something.

Shen Xinlan stood in the distance blankly watching Xuan Muqing's every move, tears rolled down from her eyes.

It turned out that Xuan Muqing's heart had already been occupied by other women.

"Side concubine." Xia Jingyan slowly walked over from a distance, putting a hand on Shen Xinlan's shoulder comfortingly.

Shen Xinlan raised her face full of tears, looked at Xia Jingyan with a look of pleading for help, and said with a choked voice, "What exactly do you mean by cooperation?"

Since Xuan Muqing has treated her unfairly, what else does she have to worry about now?

In the study, Xuan Muqing had already changed into clean clothes, but there was always a hint of worry on his handsome face.

"Is His Highness the Crown Prince worried about the Crown Princess?" Xuan Muchen looked at Xuan Muqing with a complex expression.

Xuan Muqing didn't answer, but raised her head and looked at Xuan Muchen with extremely complicated eyes and said, "Why did the prince come to the prince's mansion so well?"

Xuan Muchen looked at Xuan Muqing's face, and said as if joking: "I just came here to take a look when I was idle and bored. I didn't expect to encounter such a beating. Could it be that His Royal Highness thinks that this king sent someone to come?" Assassinated?"

Xuan Muqing shook her head lightly, her lips curled up, "It's just that the prince wants to come to the prince with a lot of contacts, so it shouldn't be difficult to find out who did it."

"Don't His Royal Highness think it's them?" Xuan Muchen poured a glass of water from the table, and looked at Xuan Muqing with a faint smile.

"They?" Xuan Muqing laughed coldly for a few times, then shook her head lightly, with a deep look in her eyes: "According to the number of martial arts skills of that person, it should be done by people in the Jianghu. " He paused, as if he had thought of something extremely interesting, "What's more, if they wanted to kill the prince, they would have done it long ago, so why wait until now?"
