Pregnant Before the Royal Marriage - Chapter 511
Chapter 511: Chapter 511: Will I Really Listen to Him Obediently?
Who knows what that scheming woman, the Empress, would do to Lin Zizi.
Lin Zizi’s naivete and simplicity were worrying.
Huang Ying was very concerned, “What should we do? His Highness the Crown Prince refuses to let you leave. Madam is kind-hearted and vulnerable, what if she is bullied…”
Jiang Ning stood in the corridor, looking outside with a calm expression, “The Jiang Family has my uncle and my father. Who dares to blatantly bully my mother? But…”
But what? She didn’t say it.
Not far away in a small garden, the two children Wenzan and Lingzi were playing happily, laughing unconcerned, completely unaware of their mother’s predicament at this time.
Huang Ying lowered her voice, “At first, his Majesty refused to let you leave the East Palace, but the Crown Prince always stood by our side. Now, the Crown Prince openly forbids you to leave, isn’t this declaring to everyone that you indeed are suspected of poisoning the imperial concubine?”
Jiang Ning smiled, “Li Hongyuan is a very deep thinker, you don’t need to guess his thoughts. Right now, I need to see my mother first.”
“But what about the order to not leave the East Palace?”
“Do I need to listen to Li Hongyuan’s orders?” Jiang Ning raised her eyebrows, “If he wouldn’t let me do something, I would obediently comply. Would I be able to stand here today?”
If Jiang Ning had been obedient, she would have been secretly killed by the former Crown Prince and Princess Consort during Li Hongyuan’s punishment for guarding the tomb.
Showing weakness on the surface doesn’t mean she is really a rule-abiding and obedient person.
Huang Ying said, “I just asked Chunlai to check, and Li Xiu has stationed someone at the gate.”
“Li Hongyuan can be really ruthless.”
Jiang Ning thought for a moment and ordered Huang Ying, “You take the children back to the room.”
As Huang Ying was always obedient, she knew that Jiang Ning had already made up her mind. She would not ask if her master didn’t say, and immediately led the Nanny and wet nurse to take the two young masters back to their room.
Jiang Ning looked down at herself.
A light and comfortable undyed fine cotton skirt, a commonplace attire, wasn’t grand enough for an audience with the Emperor.
But she didn’t care.
From head to toe, except for her wrists, not a single piece of skin was exposed. There would be no problem meeting the Emperor or even the Jade Emperor like this.
After all, she and the Emperor knew each other when they were still humble, so there was no need to pretend to be a virtuous lady in front of him.
Jiang Ning stretched out her fingers to pinch a flower petal that had fallen on her skirt, and walked outside.
As soon as she stepped out of the back yard, a black shadow floated silently and landed in front of her, pushing a wheelchair before her.
“Sit.”
The young man, Gucheng, was as always, a man who cherished his words like gold.
Jiang Ning smiled, and for once didn’t refuse. She gracefully sat down.
Thus, a black-clad silent youth pushed an exquisite wheelchair, on which sat a breathtakingly beautiful girl with waterfall-like long hair.
The girl’s long legs were crossed under her skirt, her left hand rested on the armrest, propping up her chin, looking relaxed and carefree as if she was going on an outing.
Li Xiu’s imperial guards stationed at the second gate opened their eyes wide in surprise when they saw the youth in black pushing the wheelchair, and the stunning Princess Consort sitting on it.
Hadn’t the Princess Consort’s legs…already healed?
Why was she on a wheelchair again?
The two guards stepped forward to stop her, politely persuading, “In accordance with the orders of the Crown Prince, the Princess Consort must stay in the East Palace and not go outside. Please return, Your Highness.”
“Gucheng.” Jiang Ning gently uttered these two soft words with her pink lips.
As her words fell, Gucheng moved..
