Time Travel: The Heroine Has Arrived!-Chapter 649: The Destiny Princess VS The Ambitious Younger Sister (32)

In March of the eleventh year of Fengyuan in the Heavenly Phoenix Dynasty, Crown Prince Huang Changge personally set out to seek marriage with His Royal Highness Prince Yong of Da Qin.

In August of the eleventh year of Fengyuan, the Crown Prince held a grand wedding in Qinghuang Palace.

Not only the Phoenix Emperor and Phoenix Monarch but also the common people of Heavenly Phoenix breathed a sigh of relief, the Crown Prince was no longer young, and he had finally married.

After the complex ceremonies were over, the couple, blessed by countless people, finally reached the bridal chamber.

The Palace Attendants had already tidied everything up and retired, leaving the two alone.

"Quexi," Gu Shengyin smiled with complete satisfaction, "you’re finally mine."

Qin Quexi raised his eyebrows, his exquisite features even more peerless against the backdrop of his red robe.

"You belong to me too, Changge."

The chamber gradually quieted down.

"Bi Xin," whispered another senior Palace Attendant, Lan Xin, who was keeping vigil with her, "tell me, which of our Highness and the Legal Spouse do you think..."

She subtly gestured upward with her hand.

It was not her fault, the curiosity was just too great.

Bi Xin glared at her without amusement, "Be careful or the Crown Prince might hear you, and see if he doesn’t punish you tomorrow."

But then she couldn’t help but laugh too, "I guess... it should be our Crown Prince, right?"

However, this question became a mystery in everyone’s mind.

The next morning, when Bi Xin and Lan Xin entered the chamber to serve the two Highnesses, both were calm and composed, showing no signs at all.

Gu Shengyin and Qin Quexi each paid a visit to the Phoenix Emperor and Phoenix Monarch.

Both were very satisfied with Qin Quexi, especially since the deep affection he showed when Changge was injured was genuinely touching. ƒree𝑤ebnσvel-com

As time passed, everyone said that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince’s Legal Spouse were a match made in heaven, their relationship was so close that it seemed to allow no one else in.

The only thing less than perfect was that almost half a year had passed since the grand wedding, and Zheng Jun’s belly showed no sign of life.

Even the Phoenix Monarch couldn’t help but glance twice at his stomach when Qin Quexi came to pay his respects.

In the Heavenly Phoenix Dynasty, women had no capacity for childbearing, while men, after marriage, would consume a fruit called "Pregnancy Spirit Fruit," which gave them the ability to conceive children.

But having the ability to conceive was all it provided; eating the fruit did not lead to immediate pregnancy, otherwise, the Harem of the Heavenly Phoenix Dynasty wouldn’t be full of Monarch’s Attendants without children.

No wonder the Phoenix Monarch was anxious, Gu Shengyin only had Qin Quexi as a Legal Spouse, and their mutual affection was evident to all; it was strange that there was no pregnancy yet.

At the Imperial Court, there were already ministers suggesting that a concubine should be taken for the Crown Prince, but Gu Shengyin dismissed the idea with firm opposition.

Only the close attendants, such as Bi Xin and Lan Xin, knew the truth: The Legal Spouse hadn’t consumed the Pregnancy Spirit Fruit at all.

It was Gu Shengyin who instructed them not to give the fruit to the Legal Spouse and not to speak of it to anyone.

Qin Quexi was unaware of these matters.

But no matter how much was kept from him, a day would come when Qin Quexi would find out.

That night, Qin Quexi sat quietly on the bed and looked at her, "Why won’t you allow me to take those fruits?"

Gu Shengyin stopped in his tracks.

"Marrying me has already wronged you," he said.

He was so proud, to forsake his noble status and leave behind his kin for her, to come to this Heavenly Phoenix where he knew no one.

How could she bear to ask him, a man of Da Qin, to endure such a thing?
