Pregnant Before the Royal Marriage

Chapter 830: Chapter 830: How Did He Leave So Soon_1@@novelbin@@

This kind of casualness, like a fresh novelty.

Such a destiny is destined to be sad.

The Great Sheng Royal Family will never truly accept her, nor would they allow her to bear a child of royal bloodline.

Now that she has severed her chances of conceiving, she can nevertheless fight for a semblance of trust and tolerance for herself.

At least, she could make her life in the palace a lot easier.

Jin Man, who had taken the medicine, slowly settled down from the abdominal pain.

She lay quietly in bed, enjoying the relief and fatigue after the pain has subsided.

Jiang Ning came to her bedside and said softly, “Jin Liangyuan, things are as they are, just take a good rest. In fact…”

She thought for a moment, then said no more.

In fact, as long as others didn’t find her trouble, she wouldn’t take the initiative to make things difficult for the women in the harem. Why bother.

They were all pitiful women. There was no point in fighting with them.

She could live peacefully with Li Yuanyuan, and she certainly wouldn’t make things difficult for Jin Man.

But Jin Man seemed to attribute the reason for her lack of favor in the Crown Prince’s eyes to her, the Princess Consort, and she took medicine in front of her to prove her harmlessness.

For Jiang Ning, she had to admire Jin Liangyuan’s imagination.

After all the fuss, the night had grown deep.

Jiang Ning, forcing back her sleepiness, comforted Jin Man and planned to go back to sleep.

But Li Hongyuan hadn’t left yet, and as his subordinate, it wasn’t good for her to leave first. So she looked at him and said, “Your Highness, if you plan to stay here, I’ll arrange for someone to make preparations.”

Li Yuanyuan looked up.

On the bed, Jin Man revealed a hint of joy.

Concubine Ya successfully retained the Emperor’s heart by playing the piteous. Her plight was much worse, and if the Crown Prince had any trace of sympathy, he should be more compassionate toward her.

That was human nature.

Who knew that upon hearing the Princess Consort’s words, the Crown Prince put on a face immediately and his tone turned cold, “As the Princess Consort, you should be managing the affairs of the East Palace. You did not fulfill your duties and dare to throw the mess to me? I’d say, you should stay and take care of Jin Liangyuan.”

Jiang Ning: “??”

Li Yuanyuan quickly laughed and said to ease the tense atmosphere, “The Princess Consort is weak and has little princes and princesses at home to take care of. How can she stay here? The Imperial Physician said Jin Liangyuan needs to rest for half a month, so she is not suitable to serve the Crown Prince. My Yellow Flower Pavilion is nearby, I can take care of anything that might happen. Juxiang, you take care of Jin Liangyuan, if there is anything, come find me.”

Juxiang, the mistress of the Plum Blossom Cottage, hurriedly agreed.

Li Yuanyuan then said, “It’s getting late, your highness should go back and rest early.”

“Concubine Li did well, rewarded.”

After complimenting Li Yuanyuan, Li Hongyuan left the scene.

Li Yuanyuan gave an embarrassed smile, “Look at this mess, it turns out I got the benefit.”

Jiang Ning said, “Concubine Li, no need to be modest. You’ve been running around busily today, you deserve the reward. I’ll be busy in the upcoming days, you need to take care of Jin Liangyuan.”

“Don’t worry, Princess Consort, I will remember everything.”

“I will return now.”

Jiang Ning left with her people.

The room emptied out as everyone hurried out.

Jin Man looked at the empty room, her face was confused.

She didn’t understand why the Crown Prince came and left again so quickly. She knew that in her current condition, she couldn’t serve in bed, but… the Crown Prince did not need to rush off like that. Even if he spoke some gentle words to her, she would feel better.
