Pregnant Before the Royal Marriage

“Until you don’t want to raise them anymore.”

“You’re really giving them to me?”

“Yes.”

Li Hongyuan leaves without looking back.

Chashan hurriedly follows out, seeing him mounting his horse, he quickly mounts his own and follows, “My lord, did you really give the young master and young mistress to the Jiang family?”

“The Jiang family is their maternal grandparents’ family. What’s so wrong with them being with their own mother? Do you think they would mistreat them?”

“No, no, that’s not what I meant. I just think… the young master has a noble identity, being your legitimate eldest son. Can we really have him raised outside the palace?”

“What do you expect? To let my legitimate eldest son be raised by one of Ms. Li’s concubines?”

“That… won’t work either.” Chashan speaks softly, “This servant only feels that it’s unfair to you, my lord.”

“I don’t want to make her sad.”

“Since you like the Princess Consort so much, why not ask Emperor Father to bring her back?”

“Once Emperor Father agrees to Madam Prime Minister Jiang’s request, he won’t go back on his word.” Li Hongyuan rides his horse, gazing forward, his expression cold, “And Prime Minister Jiang’s wife is wholeheartedly devoted to her daughter. In this matter, unless Jiang Ning agrees to it herself, nobody can force her.”

“Then you’re sending the young master and young mistress to the Jiang family, making it even more impossible for the Princess Consort to come back.”

“Even if the children are in the palace, she won’t come back.”

“Then, aren’t you losing both the…?” Chashan doesn’t dare to finish his sentence.

Li Hongyuan, however, remains calm: “By giving the children to her, I now have a reason to visit the Jiang family.”

Chashan is dumbfounded.

So that’s what his lordship was thinking.

Upon further thought, it was true.

By giving the children to the Princess Consort to raise, it would be good for the kids, and she would be grateful. Plus, it would give his lordship a reason to visit the children and get close to the Princess Consort.

A proverbial killing of three birds with one stone.

No, no, no, there’s an even more important point.

If the Princess Consort has to raise the kids, she won’t be able to go on blind dates and remarry!

Brilliant, simply brilliant!

Chashan couldn’t help but feel an endless admiration for his lordship.

Jiang Ning holds the child, watching as Li Hongyuan’s figure retreated into the distance, feeling as if she was dreaming.

He really just gave her the children so easily?

She lowers her head, and the baby in the swaddling cloth is sucking his thumb, blinking his bright black eyes at her.

Jiang Ning pulls his thumb out and kisses his cheek, “Little guy, is your little hand so delicious that you keep gnawing on it all the time?”

Unable to eat his hand, the little guy doesn’t get upset either, just humming a few times before giving up.

Jiang Ning thinks about Li Hongyuan’s words.

He said that Lingzi was already sent to the Jiang family by now.

“Huang Ying, push me back quickly.”

Xiaoman hurriedly comes to push the wheelchair.

Huang Ying exclaims excitedly, “Did the Prince of Yu really give the children back to us? What is he trying to do?”

“I don’t know what he wants to do, but since he sent the children back, I have no reason not to accept them.”

Huang Ying smiles, “The Prince of Yu looks cold-hearted, but he has a good heart. Knowing that you miss the two children, he couldn’t bear to see you sad and returned them to you.”

Jiang Ning says, “You really believe that? I think he just wants to use the children to tie me down, so I can’t continue going on blind dates and marrying.”

“Ah, that… makes sense too. But, what should we do?”

“What should we do? What do you think I’m trying to do by going on these blind dates? Do you really think I want to get married?”

Huang Ying is astonished, “You mean you agreed to go on blind dates just to show the Prince of Yu? Did you know all along that he would do this?”
