Chapter 498 Finale (7)
Chapter 498 Finale (7)
Ji Wuyuan's handsome face was gloomy enough to drip water, his aura was terrifying, and every word he said was cold and stern: "Go check it out!"
"Go there yourself!"
"I want to know everything she has been through in the shortest possible time, no matter how big or small."
His voice was deeper than the night, and his large hands were clenched into fists.
"Yes!"
Feiyu's face was serious. He didn't dare to delay and left immediately.
However, Ji Wuyuan stayed outside the courtyard and did not leave, as if he was afraid that Jiang Wantang was unwell.
Fortunately, in the second half of the night, the small courtyard was quiet and there was nothing unusual.
Ji Wuyuan stood under the old locust tree at the entrance of the alley, his deep eyes lowered, wondering what he was thinking.
The shadow was stretched extremely long by the moonlight, covering him.
The night had not yet faded, but a faint light had already appeared on the horizon, like a drop of water dripping into ink, gradually spreading out...
Fei Yu's figure suddenly appeared at the entrance of the alley like a ghost, with dew still on his black clothes, and he walked towards them in a hurry.
"His Majesty!"
Feiyu knelt on one knee, his eyes and tone full of urgency: "I have found out something important and need to report it to you immediately!"
"Speak!" Ji Wuyuan didn't even raise his eyelids, and his words were as cold as ever.
Fei Yu's Adam's apple rolled as he said hurriedly, "The Queen...she is pregnant."
As soon as the words came out, Fei Yu clearly saw that Ji Wuyuan's tall figure froze.
He turned around suddenly, his clenched fists trembled slightly, and he looked at Feiyu in disbelief.
A pair of narrow phoenix eyes, with a hint of red gradually appearing at the corners, and a hoarse voice: "What did you say?!"
Feiyu was also shocked when he found out about this.
He bowed his head and answered truthfully, "Your Majesty, the Queen is three months pregnant."
"The vomiting sounds you heard in the courtyard tonight were probably symptoms of morning sickness in pregnant women."
"How is this possible?" Ji Wuyuan subconsciously took a few steps back, his pupils constricted and trembling slightly.
When she was forced to take fertility drugs, she clearly said that she didn't want a child, let alone his child.
So, after returning to the palace that time, when the two of them were making love, he did not...
Because I know that even if she gets pregnant, she won't be willing to give birth to the baby.
Faced with his strange question, Feiyu had no answer.
Ji Wuyuan looked up at the small courtyard, shocked and excited, with a complicated mood in his heart.
"Three months..." He murmured these words softly with his thin lips, and then the redness at the corners of his eyes gradually deepened and became heavier.
Ji Wuyuan suddenly remembered three months ago, on his birthday, when his emotions were so intense that he could hardly control himself...
child......
He has a child?!
It's his and Tang'er's child.
Thinking of this, Ji Wuyuan's heart felt sour, soft, and bitter...
Afterwards, as if he thought of something, his heart suddenly tightened.
Ji Wuyuan spoke again, his voice hoarse, his expression restrained yet intense: "So she... chose to keep the child?"
Feiyu said, "Your Majesty drinks pregnancy-protecting medicine every day. She must want this child."
Upon hearing this, Ji Wuyuan's deep eyes instantly turned an unusually deep red.
In the dim morning light, Fei Yu quietly raised his eyes. From his perspective, he could clearly see that there was an imperceptible dark blue color under Ji Wuyuan's eyes.
He had rushed all the way here and had hardly closed his eyes, let alone fallen asleep.
Last night, the Queen just vomited, and he was so nervous and worried.
Now that His Majesty knows that the Empress is pregnant with the Emperor's heir, he will definitely not allow the mother and son to wander around outside.
So, Feiyu asked tentatively, "Your Majesty, do you need me to start making arrangements to welcome the Queen back to the palace?"
Ji Wuyuan did not respond, his gaze still fixed on the quiet courtyard, his eyes dark and difficult to discern.
After a long while, he said in a hoarse voice, "No."
"Since she doesn't want to go back to the palace, I'll stay here with her."
"At least, wait until she gives birth to the baby safely."
"I will write to the Imperial Master to instruct him on matters in the capital."
Fei Yu lowered his eyes and said yes.
The night fades, the east gradually brightens...
The first golden ray of sunlight in the morning shines on the quiet courtyard, and occasional bird calls can be heard.
From the courtyard came the sounds of women drawing water in the morning...
Ji Wuyuan and Feiyu hid their figures and left.
After the teahouse opened, the two men, who had changed their appearance after disguising themselves, joined the crowd in.
Ji Wuyuan chose an inconspicuous private room on the second floor, but the location happened to allow him to see the small platform where Jiang Wantang stood yesterday.
As soon as the two sat down, a girl came forward to greet them.
Ji Wuyuan sat aside drinking tea. Although he had changed into an ordinary appearance and wore a half-face mask, his every move was elegant and noble, and his demeanor could not be concealed.
The girl had never seen such a noble and dignified man in this small town, and she couldn't help but look at him a few more times.
However, Ji Wuyuan drank his tea without even raising his eyes, with a cold attitude that said, "Keep No One Near Me."
Seeing this, Feiyu, who was standing by, quickly turned the girl's attention back and ordered a lot of tea and snacks in one breath.
After the girl left, Ji Wuyuan glanced at Feiyu and said coldly, "Are you sure she won't be able to recognize your disguise skills?"
Fei Yu patted his chest and said confidently, "Don't worry, Master. I have masked your face, breath, and voice. Even if the Queen herself were sitting in front of you, she would not be able to recognize you."
Ji Wuyuan continued to drink tea without saying anything.
Fei Yu asked curiously, "Master, do you really not intend to...let the Empress know that you have come to Jiangnan?"
Ji Wuyuan said calmly, "Hmm," and said, "If she knew I was here, it would only disrupt her peaceful and comfortable life."
Besides, he didn't know whether Jiang Wantang would want to see him now.
What if she knew I was coming and wanted to escape?
Now that she is pregnant, she cannot stand the hardship, and he dare not gamble.
As long as she lives a comfortable and happy life and her child is born safely, that's enough.
However, the two of them sat in the teahouse for a long time but Jiang Wantang did not show up.
Ji Wuyuan frowned and gave Feiyu a look, and Feiyu immediately understood and left the private room.
Soon, Feiyu lifted the curtain and walked in.
He lowered his voice and said, "Master, the queen vomited twice when she woke up this morning. She just drank some medicine, so it will take time for her to recover."
"This won't do..." Ji Wuyuan put down the teacup and frowned, "I have to find a way to give me the opportunity to be by her side and take care of her personally."
"Also, have the doctor you found arrange for someone to be sent over as soon as possible."
Feiyu nodded in agreement, and when he looked up, he saw a woman kneeling on the street downstairs, with a plaque next to her that read: Selling Myself to Save My Father
However, not long after the woman knelt down, the female manager of the teahouse came over to inquire about her.
When Feiyu saw this, an idea flashed in his mind and he said excitedly, "Master!"
"I have a way to get you closer to the Empress..."
