Chapter 622 has begun

Yun Qi's expression warmed slightly, and his eyes became gentler when he looked at Xie Zhaozhao, "So I already have such an important position in Zhaozhao's heart. You would rather take risks yourself than me? "

"Stop being so talkative."

Xie Zhaozhao rolled his eyes at him, "You are now my husband, and our child is about to be born. If you are not important, who is?"

Xie Zhaozhao sighed again, "Forget it, I won't ask. Anyway, you must be careful in everything. Remember, I will worry about you, you know?"

"understood."

Yun Qi smiled and took Xie Zhaozhao into his arms, kissing her forehead gently, "I won't make fun of myself. I may suffer a little this time, but it is absolutely foolproof."

Xie Zhaozhao felt relieved a little.

That night, Yun Qi fell asleep with Xie Zhaozhao in his arms, just like every night before.

From the moment Xie Zhaozhao's belly curled up, she turned her back to Yun Qi and fell asleep with her back pressed against Yun Qi's body. Unconsciously, she got used to having a warm support on her back.

Once you lean on it, you will fall asleep quickly.

And once Yun Qi got up, she would wake up in a daze without the warmth.

It was like this early the next morning.

Feeling that his back was getting cold, Xie Zhaozhao turned over and put it on his back. There was nothing behind him. Yun Qi had already stood up and left.

Xie Zhaozhao half-closed her eyes, and seemed to remember in a trance that not long ago, Yun Qi kissed her ear and said that she was going to the Ministry of Finance...

Xie Zhaozhao lay down for a while and asked softly: "What time is it?"

"It's just past midnight." Xiang Gui's voice came from outside, "Miss, please sleep a little longer. Your Highness has already had breakfast prepared. When it's ready, please ask Miss to get up."

Xie Zhaozhao lay silently for a while, then turned over and said, "I won't sleep anymore."

Xianggui quickly went over to help Xie Zhaozhao get up.

Nowadays, when Xie Zhaozhao is at home, he mostly wears light clothes, and his hair is simply combed into a bun, either a hanging bun or a comfortable cloud bun. He hardly uses any makeup and hairpins.

But even so, it's hard to describe the pretty color.

Xianggui helped Xie Zhaozhao tidy up the broken hair around her ears, looked at the beauty in the mirror and said with emotion: "Miss is so beautiful no matter what... They say that pregnant people will become ugly, but Miss has never changed much."

"On the contrary, my face is getting whiter and softer, as smooth as a peeled egg..."

"They are all born with beauty, and His Highness always pays attention to others to take care of them."

Xie Zhaozhao laughed and said, "Your mouth seems to be filled with honey."

"Where is it?"

Xianggui said with a smile: "My servant is telling the truth."

She helped Xie Zhaozhao stand up, and they had breakfast together. Xie Zhaozhao then asked about things outside.

During the time she slept last night, she felt a little sleepy after lunch and went back to her room to take a nap.

I usually sleep comfortably and deeply, but this time I don't know why, I kept tossing and turning and couldn't fall asleep. I finally fell asleep in a daze, but I dreamed that my ankle was entangled with something.

No matter where I wanted to go, I couldn't go, I was always being dragged.

She subconsciously stretched her arms and suddenly woke up. Her legs were numb and sleepy, sweat appeared on her forehead, and she gasped heavily.

Xianggui's face changed drastically, "Miss, what's wrong with you? This...it's not the day of delivery yet, right?"

"It's not a birth..." Xie Zhaozhao said with a pale face, "It's a cramp in the leg."

Xianggui quickly stepped forward to check.

After all, she was still a girl, and she didn't know how to make raw melon and eggs, so she quickly sent someone to find Nanny Li and called the woman who accompanied the childbirth.

Two women came quickly and knelt at the footrest to rub Xie Zhaozhao's calves.

It got a little better after a while.Xie Zhaozhao frowned and said, "Has His Highness sent anyone back at noon?"

"No..." Nanny Li replied in a low voice: "Maybe she is busy today, so she didn't bother to send someone. Maybe she will be back soon."

Since Yun Qi got busy with corruption again, he didn't come back at noon.

But he will send someone over, firstly to tell him where he is going, and secondly to ask about Xie Zhaozhao's situation.

If he came back soon in the afternoon, he wouldn't send anyone.

It has always been like this.

Xie Zhaozhao nodded and said "Oh", but his heart was not very peaceful.

She pulled her legs back and put them down. Xianggui quickly brought her shoes and put them on Xie Zhaozhao, then helped her stand up, "Miss, do you want to walk around in the yard?"

"I--"

Just as Xie Zhaozhao was about to speak, a series of hurried footsteps suddenly sounded in the courtyard.

Xie Zhaozhao immediately stopped talking and stared in the direction of the door.

In the blink of an eye, Hongxia strode over and stopped in front of Xie Zhaozhao, looking very anxious, "Something happened!"

Xie Zhaozhao took a deep breath, waved his hand for everyone to leave, and then asked, "What happened?"

"It's Your Highness."

Hongxia said solemnly: "His Royal Highness entered the palace in the morning to meet with His Majesty, and was then confined to the Anle Hall. This is the news that came from the palace. There is no news from other places outside."

Xie Zhaozhao's face turned pale, "Okay, I understand. Don't make a fuss. Just act like nothing happened and just do what you should do as usual."

Hongxia was a little surprised, "But -"

Everyone knows Emperor Xuanwu's dissatisfaction and fear of Yun Qi.

Now that Yun Qi is banned in the palace, there may be big trouble. Xie Zhaozhao makes people pretend that nothing happened?
Isn't it time to move around and think of a solution?
Xie Zhaozhao said coldly: "Follow my instructions, no one should act rashly, just wait!"

Hongxia was stunned and didn't dare to say anything: "I understand, I understand."

After she retreated, Xie Zhaozhao began to sweat on his back and muttered: "It's begun..."

There were times before that were more critical than this one, but this time she seemed to be more worried than every time before.

Xie Zhaozhao took a deep breath and held Xianggui's hand tightly. "Be strict with your mouth. Don't reveal even a word of information to the public."

Xianggui also turned pale with fright, nodded vigorously and did not dare to say anything more.

Xie Zhaozhao calmly sat down and took rest and dinner as usual.

Yun Qi didn't come back at night, nor on the second or third day. People in the Dingxi Palace began to realize that something was wrong, and at the same time, news came out from outside——

Emperor Xuanwu was bedridden. It was suspected that Yun Qi had treasonous intentions and was plotting to kill the emperor.

The news of the collapse of the sky spread all over the capital for some reason. From the princes and nobles to the traffickers and footmen, everyone described it vividly, as if they had seen it with their own eyes.

Chaos also began to arise in Prince Dingxi's mansion.

But Xie Zhaozhao was terrifyingly calm and ordered everyone to strictly adhere to their respective posts and not to act rashly.

In the evening, Xie Zhaozhao had just had dinner when Hongxia came to report: "The fifth young master is here."

"Then invite him in."

Xie Zhaozhao gave instructions, and soon Hongxia walked in with Xie Changyuan.

Xie Changyuan's face was solemn, and he frowned when he came in. "Something happened over there at Yunqi. Are you, are you okay here?"
