Li Hongyuan knew he had to change clothes, but—
He looked down.
His hand was still in Jiang Ning’s.
“The wound is treated. Shouldn’t you let go now? Can’t bear to part with this prince?”
“You’re overthinking.” Jiang Ning shook her hand. “It’s just stiff.”
Li Hongyuan said, “Since you can’t let go, let’s change like this. As your husband, I have nothing to hide from you. After all, I’ve seen you from every angle.”
“Do you think I’ll be so embarrassed by your words?” Jiang Ning lay nonchalantly. “You’ve seen what you’ve seen. I don’t care. Huang Ying, help me change my clothes.”
Huang Ying suppressed a smile and helped her sit up, starting to remove her clothes.
She took off the robe, then the upper garment.
As the upper garment was removed, her skin, white as jade, was revealed.
Huang Ying hesitated for a moment and asked, “Princess Consort, should I remove the skirt too?”
“Yes, take everything off. Can’t you see it’s stained with blood?”
“Yes.” Huang Ying reached for the belt around her waist.
Finally unable to hold back, Li Hongyuan slapped her hand away and said, “Shameless woman! To be so exposed before a man, you’re downright wanton!” “Weren’t you the one who said you had seen every part my body?” Jiang Ning smiled, “What, you’re not so daring now?”
“Do you have no sense of shame? I can’t believe I have to associate with a wanton woman like you!”
Li Hongyuan turned and walked away.
Jiang Ning waved her slightly stiff left wrist and said, “All bark and no bite.”
Huang Ying smiled, “Princess Consort, don’t bully His Highness like that.”
“With the words you use, people might think I’m flirting with him. Hmph.” Jiang Ning leaned on her bed to stand, making it easier for Huang Ying to help her change her skirt.
“When you were injured before, His Highness rushed over and saw you covered in blood. He was so scared that his face went pale. I saw it with my own eyes. It proves that he still cares about you.”
“You’re overthinking it.” Jiang Ning flipped something out of her purse and tossed a piece of candied fruit into her mouth. “He was just worried about the emperor’s eldest grandson.”
Upon reflection, Huang Ying realized that was indeed the case… At the time, the prince had first picked up the emperor’s eldest grandson.
Ah well.
After tidying up, Huang Ying called Xiaoman and carried Jiang Ning to the carriage.
Jiang Ning looked around and asked, “Where’s Xiaoqian?”
“The emperor’s eldest grandson is fine, just a little frightened. He’s already been sent back to the palace.”
“Alright, good.” Jiang Ning got into the carriage with relief, only to find Li Hongyuan already inside. “What are you doing in my carriage?”
“Get it straight, this is my carriage.”
“Where’s my carriage then?”
“It was ruined by the assassins.”
“…Where did the assassins come from? Were they targeting Xiaoqian?”
“No, they were after you.”
“Me? Is it as a revenge from Marquis of Yuandong’s residence?”
“You’re scared now?” Li Hongyuan scoffed. “I thought you were fearless and didn’t care about anything.”
“Is it really them?” Jiang Ning didn’t care about his sarcasm now.
“No, it isn’t.”
Jiang Ning glared at him.
He’s being ridiculous.
“Though it’s not Marquis of Yuandong this time, who knows about the future?” Li Hongyuan continued indifferently, “Though I haven’t found out the specifics yet, I suspect it’s either the King of Chen or Prince of Huai.”
Jiang Ning said, “So it’s all because of this little bunny in my belly. It almost got me killed.”
“What did you call him?”
“A bunny.”
“Say it again?”
“Bunny! Bunny!”
“…” Li Hongyuan looked away, calmly saying, “Don’t go out carelessly before giving birth..”
