Congratulations on opening the coffin

Chapter 56 The Only Baby

After the prescription was written, the eldest prince snatched it before the ink was dry.

He blew it, then picked it up and looked up and down: "All of these medicines are of great value, and there are even many of them that even if you have money, you may not be able to buy them..."

He turned his eyes to Xiao Chen: "You little prince, can you do it, don't go bankrupt and kill her."

Xiao Chen seemed to have gotten used to his angry words from time to time, he put his hands behind his back and said calmly: "You don't need to worry about this, the prince, I have my own way."

The eldest prince scoffed: "I'm afraid you're just slapping your face to look fat, woman, this kind of man is the most untrustworthy, why don't you go back to the grassland with me!"

After all, it turns out that this is his real purpose, and regardless of Xiao Chen's dark face beside him, he still promotes himself: "I can find you any medicine, let alone this poisonous medicine. It’s still from the Western Regions, maybe we still have information left over there.”

"Besides, our Khitan men are the most loyal, unlike your Central Plains men, who have three wives and four concubines, and even doting on concubines and killing wives sometimes happens..."

Seeing that the eldest prince's words became more and more outrageous, Xiao Chen couldn't bear it anymore, and immediately interrupted: "Enough, Shen Ruo is my king's woman, and this king will naturally protect her, so there is no need for the eldest prince to worry."

The eldest prince didn't care about his words, his eyes were still staring at Shen Ruo: "Woman, I'm going back to Khitan soon, I just need a word from you, and I will take you with me..."

Before he finished speaking, there was a "噗——", the sword light flashed, and the cold murderous aura pervaded instantly: "Atamu, don't think that I can't touch you after the two countries have signed a contract!"

Seeing this, the envoy was so frightened that he quickly intervened to persuade him: "My lord! My lord! Calm down! Calm down! My eldest prince is just joking, he likes joking the most."

"I'm not joking!" The eldest prince looked very serious, and he didn't even pay attention to the sword on his neck at all. He looked at Shen Ruo seriously and intently, "Woman, this is the first time this prince has been tempted by someone, no matter You need to pay any price, as long as you say a word, I will take you away."

"Atamu, you..."

In front of him, with deep affection for his concubine, as if he was dead, but seeing a hand suddenly stopped him, Xiao Chen looked over in surprise: "You really want to go with him?"

Shen Ruo only looked at the eldest prince, with the expression on her face still flat, as if she was not the one who was confessed affectionately: "Sorry, I can't go with you."

The eldest prince was as handsome and rough as a wild lion, and for the first time a painful expression appeared on his face: "Why?"

However, Xiao Chen no longer wanted the two of them to stage sadomasochistic love in front of him again, he sneered coldly: "Since the envoy is helpless against the princess' illness, please leave."

As he said that, he embraced Shen Ruo's waist without hesitation, and led her away from the side door. The eldest prince wanted to chase him, but was stopped by Feng Xi, who was dressed in a guard uniform. He raised his hand respectfully but forcefully to signal: "Elder prince, The door is over there, so you can leave without seeing it."

……

Hearing the sound of fighting behind him, Shen Ruo pulled away the hands on his waist, and calmly asked the people beside him, "Aren't you afraid that he will tear down the palace?"

Xiao Chen raised his eyebrows, and said disapprovingly: "It just so happens that the king feels that the palace is a little dilapidated, and it would be better to tear it down and rebuild it."

He still cares about the Khitan prince's evaluation of the palace when he came in, Shen Ruo glanced at him, with a hidden smile in his eyes, seeing it clearly.

Seeing that Xiao Chen's expression suddenly sank again, he said: "Your illness... don't be afraid, even if it only lasts for half a year, this king will definitely help you find a cure."

Shen Ruo nodded: "Well, I'm not afraid."

However, her words did not seem to be perfunctory, but she was really not afraid.

Surprise flashed in Xiao Chen's heart, and he couldn't help asking: "Aren't you afraid of death?"

Shen Ruo glanced at him, but seemed a little puzzled by his question: "What's so scary about death? It's just a long sleep. I'm even more afraid of doing nothing and doing nothing when I'm alive."

"Death is just a long sleep!?" Xiao Chen repeated it thoughtfully, then laughed loudly, "Shen Ruo, you are really interesting. How many people have worked hard and searched up and down, but have never realized you Such a state of mind..."

He paused, then looked straight at Shen Ruo: "Who are you?"

A woman who has lived in a deep boudoir for a long time and has never stepped out of the house, no matter what, it is impossible for her to possess the miraculous medical skills, the strange knives she takes out from time to time, and even her indifferent and peaceful personality...

One by one, Xiao Chen couldn't help but doubt her identity.

However, Shen Ruo still didn't change the look on his face: "I'm just Shen Ruo. If I want to say it again, I'm just a person who can live for half a year at most. King Jing don't have to doubt me too much."

half a year!half a year!It was like a ticking countdown, clamoring that the woman in front of her was about to die soon.

All suspicions and doubts will be meaningless after half a year.

Xiao Chen was stunned, the oppressive air around him dissipated completely, but Shen Ruo didn't care at all, and turned back to the yard.

……

This time, the tit-for-tat confrontation between the two seemed to have never happened, and Xiao Chen returned to his usual appearance.

"Come on, drink the medicine."

He was holding the medicine bowl and wanted to feed the medicine, but Shen Ruo pushed him away with disgust: "I will do it myself, you don't need to do it."

The little maids who didn't know about it all lowered their heads and sniggered as they watched this scene as usual.

Hongyu chimed in: "Your Majesty, the lord has already given orders to the manor. You are weak now, so you have to be careful in serving you. You should obey the lord and drink the medicine."

Shen Ruo glared at Hongyu, dissatisfied: "I'm just sick, it's not that I lost my hand, and it's not my turn to be fed."

Nanny Qin on the side also laughed and said, "Your Majesty, you don't understand now, the prince loves his daughter-in-law, and he doesn't want you to do it."

"You must know that the prince was cold and cold before, and he didn't get close to strangers. I didn't expect that he would care about people so much now. I really put your mind at ease."

Shen Ruo listened, looked at Xiao Chen next to him, and felt suspicious, him?Is he cold?I can't see it.

At this time, the nanny sighed: "Your Majesty, you have to take good care of your body. While you are young now, you need a few more children so that the house can be lively."

Shen Ruo didn't expect that he would travel through a journey, escaped the marriage urge, but met the urge to give birth again, his face was a little embarrassed, and he wanted to refute immediately, but Xiao Chen chuckled and echoed: "Don't worry, ma'am, it will be soon!" of."

Lin'er, who was eating the pastries sent by the Xiangyang Hou Mansion, suddenly raised his head: "Mother, when you have a younger brother, will you stop loving Lin'er?"

On that white and tender little face, the little eyebrows frowned, as pitiful as they looked.

Shen Ruo immediately glared at Xiao Chen, stepped forward to hug Lin'er, and comforted her: "Don't worry, Mother will not have another child, you are Mother's only treasure."

Nanny Qin opened her mouth, as if she wanted to say something, but she saw Xiao Chen silently shaking her head at her side, so Nanny Qin had no choice but to close her mouth again.
