Pregnant Before the Royal Marriage

Chapter 546: Chapter 546: Mother Complains of a Leg Ache

Huang Ying frowned for a while, feeling a bit guilty: “I can’t remember where I saw this handwriting.”

“It’s okay. This is handwriting, not a person’s appearance. It’s already impressive that you find it familiar,” Jiang Ning consoled her, “Take your time. If you can’t remember, it’s not a big deal. I can always find out.”

“Master, perhaps I’ll remember after settling my mind.”

Huang Ying smiled, “Let me focus on my work, and my mind will settle. I’ll help you wash and change your clothes.”

“Alright.”

Jiang Ning hadn’t slept all night, hadn’t bathed, brushed her teeth, or changed her clothes.

Huang Ying worked methodically and attentively.

Jiang Ning didn’t dare disturb her, so she stayed quiet.

Not until Wenzan and Lingzi came running, did the quiet room suddenly fill with the children’s chattering and the sound of them running around.

“Mother,” Lingzi hugged Jiang Ning’s leg, “Mother, take me to see father.”

“Oh? What makes you think of your father?”

“Father said yesterday that he would take us fishing.”

“Really?” Jiang Ning let Lingzi sit on her lap and laughed, “Your father is so busy, how could he have time to take you fishing?”

“Father said he hasn’t been with us for a long time, so he wants to take us out of the Imperial Palace for fun!”

“Is that so? Wenzan?” Jiang Ning looked at her son.

The son was well-behaved and never lied.

Wenzan nodded, “Father said so.”

“Out of the palace, out of the palace, out of the palace!” Lingzi was extremely excited.

Jiang Ning laughed, “This huge Imperial Palace is not big enough for you two to play in? You’re so eager to go out.”

Wenzan also leaned against Jiang Ning and asked, “Will mother come with us to fish outside the palace?”

This question left Jiang Ning unsure how to answer.

Of course, she wanted to accompany her children, but with the double ban from the Emperor and the Crown Prince, her craftiness within the palace was already reaching its limit.

Leaving the palace was simply impossible.

Moreover, she felt leaving the palace was quite dangerous.

She wouldn’t be at ease until the real culprit was found.

But she couldn’t tell the children all this, so she smiled and said, “Mother’s legs have been hurting, and I haven’t been feeling well lately. You go with father first, and when I’m better, I’ll take you out.”

Children are easy to deceive, as long as you give them a convincing reason, they can easily accept it.

In their young hearts, their mother indeed had a weak body, sometimes even needing a wheelchair.

“Mother, rest well at home and take good care of yourself,” Lingzi tenderly advised her.

“Such a good girl.” Jiang Ning instructed Huang Ying, “Have someone prepare more breakfast, I’ll eat with the children.”

It didn’t take long for Huang Ying to set up a table.

Jiang Ning fed a piece of rice cake to Lingzi, and heard a palace maid outside the curtain, “Reporting to the Princess Consort, the Crown Prince is here.”

Li Hongyuan personally lifted the curtain and entered.

He was dressed in a bamboo-green robe, which added a touch of elegance to his handsome and gloomy temperament.

Every time Jiang Ning saw his youthful appearance, she found it hard to connect him with the father of two children.

“Father!”

Lingzi and Wenzan got up, their faces filled with surprise, “Father, have you come to take us out of the palace?”

“Yes, but you have to eat well first.” Li Hongyuan spoke tenderly to both children, especially Lingzi, his voice almost melting the ice of the cold December.

After speaking, he looked at Jiang Ning, “Will the Princess Consort be joining?”

Lingzi said, “Mother can’t go, she said her leg hurts.”

“Is that so?” Li Hongyuan’s gaze swept over her leg, revealing an ambiguous expression, “Li Xiu, tell Concubine Li to get ready to accompany me and the children out.”
