Seven days later, at night, Zhao Chengyang waited anxiously outside the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice.After a long time, I saw two people coming out with a drooping head covered in blood. The original color of his clothes could no longer be seen.

Even though he was mentally prepared, Zhao Chengyang still took a deep breath, stepped forward in three steps in parallel, and picked up the semi-conscious person. Several of Lin Zhi's subordinates also came to help.

One of the people who helped Lin Zhi out rudely drove him away: "You are lucky, the people who were handed over to us before have no reason to be released again. Go, don't stay here."

Zhao Chengyang held Lin Zhi by his arm, with the bloody smell on his body, he hated and was angry with these people, but he didn't dare to make a mistake, gritted his teeth secretly, and smiled apologetically: "Don't worry, my lord, we'll leave now."

After the current Holy Majesty succeeded to the throne, it was rumored that he was often assassinated by the remnants of the abolished princelings, and all of those assassins were skinned and cramped, and their deaths were tragic.Who knew that Lin Zhi was so unlucky that he broke into that yard impartially during this sensitive period, and was arrested without any explanation.

What a disaster.

He was still on his way home, and when he heard the news, he immediately came back to deal with it, but although the Lin family was powerful, it was no match for the power of the emperor, and after so many days of strict investigation, they were released and tortured, but Zhao Chengyang didn't dare, and couldn't. Rebut them a word.

Because he knew that if Lin Zhi was not the young master of the Lin family, but just an ordinary person, if he strayed in by mistake, he would stray into it by mistake, and if he killed him, he would be killed, it would be bad luck for you, and no one would care.

He is lucky to be able to come out alive now.

Zhao Chengyang helped Lin Zhi to the carriage with great distress, and left this place of right and wrong without delay.

After a quick check by the doctor, Zhao Chengyang gave Lin Zhi a pill, but the pill was stuffed into his mouth but he couldn't swallow it.

Zhao Chengyang tried to wake him up: "Lin Zhi, Lin Zhi, wake up!"

no response.With a thought, he whispered in his ear again: "Chuting, Chuting, Jiang Chuting."

Sure enough, Lin Zhi's eyelids trembled, and there was a movement, his dry lips opened and closed with difficulty: "Chu...Chu, Ting..."

His voice was muffled, he rolled his throat, and swallowed the medicine.Zhao Chengyang breathed a sigh of relief, and gently wiped the blood on his face with his sleeve.

The doctor said just now that Lin Zhi's body was seriously injured, but fortunately they were not fatal, he just needed to rest for half a year.

Lin Zhi's eyes opened a gap, the eyeballs moved slowly, and said weakly: "Sword, mine, where is my sword..."

"...What are you talking about? A sword?" Zhao Chengyang frowned in distress, and said, "It's fine when I come back. What kind of sword do you need? I'll give you as much as you want."

Lin Zhi's breath trembled, he closed his eyes, tears rolled down from the corners of his eyes, and began to call vaguely again: "Chu Ting, Chu... Ting..."

Obviously still in a state of unconsciousness.Zhao Chengyang touched his hot forehead, sighed lightly, and urged the driver: "Hurry up."

After five days of treatment in Jincheng, Lin Zhi's condition gradually stabilized, and Zhao Chengyang took him back to Anyang.

Probably because of the imminent birth, Jiang Chuting has had frequent nightmares recently, dreaming that a deformed little monster was born, crying and crying, crying shrillly, and blood all over his face.

That night, his dream was slightly different, because Lin Zhi appeared. Seeing the child crying, Lin Zhi smiled and reached out to hug him. Unexpectedly, the child opened his mouth and bit his neck viciously. He watched Lin Zhi's head gurgling and rolling on the ground.

Jiang Chuting woke up suddenly, his heart was beating wildly, the feeling of hot blood spraying on his face was so real, he touched his face subconsciously, it was nothing.

But Jiang Chuting couldn't fall asleep at all, got out of bed and opened the door, there was a reclining chair in the yard, he slowly lay down on it, staring at the twinkling stars in the night sky with his black eyes.

He doesn't really like to be immersed in sentimentality and sadness, and he has been away from the Lin family for half a year in despair. He has already gotten used to the life without Lin Zhi, and will not make waves because of his news, and will not miss those people. and his past.

He felt that it was wise and correct for him to withdraw decisively and let go.Since then, each has its own life and will no longer be related.

But just because of that dream, a fake dream, my heart hurts so badly that I can't breathe.

It turned out that he hadn't really forgotten Lin Zhi.

His feelings for Lin Zhi are like a hibernating snake, seemingly silent and silent, if you are not careful, it will jump out unexpectedly and bite you.

You can lie to yourself, but you can't lie to your heart.

Jiang Chuting stayed in the yard in a daze that night until dawn before returning to his room.

He has no internal energy at all now, and his physique is worse than that of ordinary people. Although Zhou Bei covered him with a blanket, he still caught the cold from the night wind blowing for a long time.

When Jiang Xian came to look for him, he saw that he was coughing from time to time, and his complexion was also very bad, so he couldn't help worrying, and asked strangely: "The weather is getting colder and colder, why did you run out in the middle of the night?"

"The little guy is very fussy, I can't sleep, go out to get some air." Jiang Chuting spoke with a nasal voice, and his eyes were slightly red because of pantothenic acid. He leaned back in the chair and said forcefully, "I've eaten a little. Take some medicine, it's mild and doesn't bother you." He has been sick more times this year than before.

Jiang Xian said: "You, the older you get, the less you can take care of yourself." Looking at his big belly, he felt emotional: "Time flies so fast, I'm going to give birth next month."

Really fast.Jiang Chuting thought it was absurd and unreal at first, but it wasn't until the first fetal movement that he felt that there was something extra in his stomach.Now, we are about to meet it.

Regardless of whether it is complete or incomplete, he will never abandon it.

Jiang Xian muttered again: "The post-sealing ceremony will also be held next month, do you know?"

"Yes, I know." This was what Jiang Chuting expected and looked forward to.

In any case, after Pei Jing has a harem, part of her attention will be diverted.But when Pei Jing told him about it personally, he got a flat reaction, his face was very ugly.

During this period of time, Pei Jing was very busy and hadn't been out of the palace, but knowing about his illness once again restricted his travel.Now at night, Zhou Bei would not allow him to leave the room.

Wei Jia was released once in a while by Pei Jing, and now he is no stranger to Jiang Chuting's big belly, every time he puts his ear on his belly, talks to it, and expects the baby to come out soon.Jiang Xian came to accompany Jiang Chuting whenever he had nothing to do, chatting with him about the latest Jianghu rumors, telling him about his miserable experience of being scolded every day at home, in short, never let him be bored.

Before the Empress Seal Ceremony, Pei Jing came here once.Jiang Chuting was taking a nap, but was woken up by his kiss.

Jiang Chuting pushed him away, sat up with support, Pei Jing straightened up, and reached out to touch his face affectionately.

"Master, now that you don't have martial arts, why are you so easy to bully. I think back then, when I kissed you, you were going to kill me with your palm. I feel so wronged."

Jiang Chuting frowned, unable to figure out what he wanted to do, raised his hand to press the sore brows, and said in a low voice: "You know, you call me Master."

Pei Jing smiled, but her eyes were extremely gloomy: "It's almost time for the Empress Dowager Ceremony. These days, the more I think about it, the more I feel unwilling. Why didn't I marry you? Why did I keep you by my side for so long? Haven't got you? Don't eat the meat to the mouth, but still hold it in the palm of your hand, it really doesn't look like me."

Jiang Chuting's voice was slightly hoarse, and he looked at him with clear and calm black eyes and asked, "What exactly do you want to say?"

"I want to say..." Pei Jing's expression, which was still somewhat unpredictable, changed a little, becoming less cold, staring straight at Jiang Chuting's face, choked up and said: "I want to say, I seem to react suddenly Come here, I care about you more than I imagined, that's why I hate to bully you."

Jiang Chuting didn't expect him to say this, and after being slightly stunned, he said: "Xiao Jiu, you are really nice, but I can't give you what you want."

This topic has been discussed with him countless times, and it is completely a dead end.And every time it is mentioned, the atmosphere will be deadlocked.

But this time, Pei Jing's attitude was much softer, holding his hand, Xiaozhi moved him with emotion and reasoned: "Look at you, you are not too young now, and you will always need someone to take care of you for the rest of your life. If you don't fall in love with me, I will If you don’t want to come, why don’t you take me as a companion and warm the bed every three to five days, what’s wrong with that?”

The essence remains the same, just another way of saying it, Jiang Chuting shook his head, Pei Jing hugged his face with both hands, and said angrily: "Why shake your head, you are not allowed to shake your head? If you can't bear it for three or five days, change it to six or seven days. It can all be discussed on a case-by-case basis.”

"Xiao Jiu, I don't need anyone to take care of me, I can take care of myself."

"You lied. Aren't you sick these days? It's always like this when someone takes care of you. What if you are alone?"

"Every mortal body will get sick sometimes."

Pei Jing immediately said: "I'll send someone to Penglai Xiandao to get you a panacea. When you take it, you will not only stay young forever, stay healthy, but also live a long life."

Jiang Chuting said: "Xiao Jiu, your focus is wrong. Whether I am healthy or live a long life has nothing to do with this matter."

Pei Jing glared at him angrily: "...Jiang Chuting, I've given in enough, I don't want your heart anymore, you insist on fighting against me? Are you going to make me happy? I'm just talking about some things, Do you really think that if I like you, I won't do anything to you?!"

Jiang Chuting's lips moved, but before he could speak, Pei Jing moved closer and pressed his face against his arm.

Then, he took a hard bite.

Pei Jing closed her eyes and refused, "You're so annoying, shut up and stop talking."

Pei Jing didn't go back to the palace that night, nor went to sleep in her own room, so she had to share a bed with Jiang Chuting.

Jiang Chuting slept on his side inside, while Pei Jing slept outside.Sleeping until midnight, Jiang Chuting felt hot and even breath spraying on his back, and the corner of his clothes was also tightly held by one hand.

Compared with intimacy, this action is more like a kind of dependence.

Jiang Chuting raised his hand and hesitated for a moment, but in the end he didn't pull his hand away and let him go.When she woke up again, Pei Jing had already returned to the palace.

Soon came the day of the closing ceremony.Jiang Xian was assigned by his father to do something, so he couldn't come to Changning Pavilion, Jiang Chuting didn't feel bored by himself, and took a few sword manuals to study.

Zhou Bei came in suddenly and brought him a letter from Jiuchongtian. Jiang Chuting looked happy, put down the sword manual, and opened the letter to read.

Mostly they talked about Jiu Chongtian's recent situation, and then asked him if he was okay.

Jiang Chuting was at the desk, took out the letter paper and brush, and began to reply the letter. Unexpectedly, halfway through writing the letter, his hands suddenly stopped.

His stomach started to hurt.

Jiang Chuting took a light breath, lowered his eyes, and only later realized that his stomach had dropped a little.Although it was about ten days earlier than the doctor expected, it should be about to give birth.

Zhou Bei stood guard at the door. Jiang Chuting finished the unfinished letter, dried it, folded it, put it in an envelope, and called him in.

Zhou Bei stood in front of the desk and found nothing wrong. He said respectfully, "My lord, have you finished writing your reply letter?"

"Ah."

"Leave it to your subordinates, I'll send it out for you right away."

"No hurry, leave the letter here and you'll deliver it tomorrow." The pain is still tolerable, so Jiang Chuting's expression is no different from ordinary ones, and he sat firmly, calm, and said: "Now go and call me for a while." Doctor, I still need to make arrangements for a delivery."

Delivery? ?Zhou Bei's eyes widened in an instant, and he stammered a rare moment: "You, are you going to give birth?" Because Jiang Chuting was too calm, Zhou Bei became suspicious, whether he had misunderstood it?

Seeing Jiang Chuting nod his head, Zhou Bei, who had always been calm and steady, suddenly panicked: "Okay, okay, I'll make arrangements right away, and I'll find someone to report to His Majesty."

Turning around and running outside, before leaving the room, Jiang Chuting's eyes moved slightly, and he stopped him: "Wait."

Zhou Bei hurriedly stopped and turned around.

Jiang Chuting instructed: "You can find someone to deliver the baby, don't go to the palace. Today's conferment ceremony is of great importance. If you go and tell him, it will be easy to cause trouble."

"But, but His Majesty told you before that you must..."

"Special cases are treated specially." Jiang Chuting said firmly: "Listen to me, I know what's in my mind, let's go."
