Pregnant Before the Royal Marriage-Chapter 656 - : I Don’t Mind How Dirty You Are
Chapter 656: Chapter 656: I Don’t Mind How Dirty You Are
Jiang Ning was gently pushed by him, involuntarily lying on the bed.
“I haven’t bathed or cleaned up yet.” Jiang Ning raised her hand, pinching his dirty fingers.
She knew that people in the palace, most of them had some tendency towards cleanliness.
Li Hongyuan glanced at her, cavalierly saying, “It doesn’t matter. Even if you’re dirty, I don’t mind.”
“This sounds…odd.”
“Stop beating around the bush.” Li Hongyuan casually waved his hand, letting down the bed curtains.
Huang Ying, who was serving at the door, quickly dropped the curtains and led everyone out.
Inside the tent, Li Hongyuan had already stripped Jiang Ning of her clothes, dropping kisses on her body.
A young eunuch hurriedly ran in, only to be stopped by Huang Ying.
“Don’t you know the rules? Running in like this is uncouth!” Huang Ying frowned. “The master is resting inside. You disturb him, and you can think about the consequences!”
“Sister Huang Ying, it’s really important. Otherwise, even if I had three heads, I wouldn’t dare to disturb the master.”
“What is it?”
“News from the traveling palace, the princess from the Silla Kingdom is seriously ill.”
After hearing this, Huang Ying hurriedly said, “Wait here.”
She turned and went outside the curtain, whispering, “Master, there’s news from the traveling palace.”
Li Hongyuan’s movements paused, beads of sweat appeared at the tip of his nose.
Uncharacteristically, he showed a touch of irritability and asked, “What’s the matter?”
“News came from the traveling palace that Princess Zhenming is suddenly seriously ill.”
“I see! Dismissed!”
Li Hongyuan shifted his gaze back to the woman lying on the bed, the edges of his eyes also tinged with crimson.
He held down Jiang Ning’s shoulder and whispered, “If you weren’t always by my side, I would really suspect that you poisoned Princess Zhenming.”
Jiang Ning retorted, “I’m not that cruel, and I don’t hate you that much. I told you, since we are husband and wife, I will fulfill my duties. You don’t have to be suspicious.”
She pushed him away, “Get off.”
Li Hongyuan didn’t move.
“Don’t you know how to prioritize?” Jiang Ning looked at him in surprise. “If something happens to the envoy from Silla in the traveling palace, guess whose responsibility it will be? Whether it’s Silla or our Imperial Court, those who want to attack you will find a handle. Especially under the current circumstances of Li You’s return…”
“I know, you don’t need to nag.”
Li Hongyuan coldly finished speaking, sat up, reached for his clothes to put on, and got out of bed.
Huang Ying immediately brought the clothes in, serving Jiang Ning to change, while a young palace maid waited on Li Hongyuan to change his clothes.
After seeing her put on the jacket and cloak, Li Hongyuan asked, “Are you going too? It’s dark and cold outside. You sleep first, I’ll go check.”
“If it’s Prince Xinhai who’s sick, I definitely won’t go.” Jiang Ning picked up a damp cloth to wipe her face. “After all, Princess Zhenming is a maiden. It’s inconvenient for you as a man.”
Li Hongyuan thought for a moment and didn’t object, he reached out to hold her and they went to the sedan chair. They left the palace gate, changed to a carriage, and headed to the traveling palace.
Yesterday, Jiang Ning specifically sent two imperial physicians to stay in the traveling palace in case the two guests felt unwell so they could receive timely treatment.
By the time they arrived, the two physicians were indeed taking pulses.
Prince Xinhai was standing by the bed with a somewhat gloomy expression. When he saw Jiang Ning arrive, he showed a hint of joy.
Without Li Hongyuan by his side, he would probably forget about the presence of others and approach Jiang Ning directly for a chat.
“How is she?” Jiang Ning stepped forward to check on Princess Zhenming lying on the bed.
