Chapter 143: For You, Me, and Our Unborn Child
Yun Ji knew very well that fate could not be forced, and Nan Yingzhi said this just to cheer him up.
Not wanting to spoil her fun, he sniffed hard and suppressed his sadness: "Tell me."
“Isn’t the Imperial Master an expert in magic?” In an attempt to persuade him, Nan Yingzhi raised her index finger and said in a bewitching tone, “Among the tens of thousands of lovers in the world, there is always one pair who wishes to be together forever.
“I think, in order to achieve this goal, they will definitely study related techniques.
"Predecessors plant trees, and successors enjoy the shade. They have paved the way ahead, and all we have to do is to slowly search through the vast amount of information."
Although he had always had close contacts with the Imperial Master, Yun Ji only learned chess from him and talked with him occasionally, and had never learned anything about magic or the like.
"We," Yun Ji murmured, not daring to rely on his own luck that sometimes goes up and sometimes goes down for such a big thing, "will we really have such good luck?"
"God will not let down those who work hard," Nan Yingzhi spun his five fingers and clenched them into a fist, "Opportunities can always be seized."
Yun Ji was skeptical: "If it's true..."
"I've read some storybooks, in which people can be bound together through their souls for several lifetimes," Nan Yingzhi's thoughts ran wild, "Although it sounds incredible, maybe the national teacher really has a way.
"He seems to be able to communicate with spirits. If he can bind our souls together, then wouldn't we be able to stay together for the rest of our lives?"
Yun Ji's heart was beating wildly as he was tempted by her promise. He opened his mouth and uttered, "It sounds like a forbidden method."
Originally, Nan Yingzhi was just afraid that Yun Ji would lose the will to live if he stayed in the harem without her, so she said these words to leave him with some thoughts.
Now that her goal has been achieved, she decided to quit while she's ahead.
"Taboo is one thing, whether it can exist is another." Unlike the serious nonsense just now, Nan Yingzhi analyzed it seriously at this moment, "This matter is of no small importance. If the national teacher wants to do it, it is estimated that he will have to pay a considerable price.
"Anyway, we can't predict what will happen in our next life, so we might as well cherish the present.
"Just like you are going to spend quite a few days in the harem, and I cannot accompany you, you must take care of yourself even if I am not by your side.
"For yourself, for me, and for our future baby."
"Didn't you say," upon hearing the word "baby," the red cloud on Yun Ji's face, which had just subsided, slowly reappeared, "that there might not be one this time?"
"Not necessarily. It doesn't mean there is no chance. We work so hard, the probability of winning is still quite high."
Recalling the process briefly, Nan Yingzhi added a final sentence based on the actual situation: "After all, we didn't take any contraceptive measures."
"If there is, it's yours." As if to protect the fetus, Yun Ji moved his hand towards his abdomen again, "I don't want to drink the contraceptive soup."
"The contraceptive soup is harmful to your body. You have just taken this love potion, so it is inevitable that your body will be damaged. How can you bear it if you take another contraceptive soup?"
Gently shaking her head, Nan Yingzhi advised with reason and evidence: "You don't have to take the contraceptive soup, because if it happens today, it will take at least several months for your pulse to be diagnosed.
“These few months can be short or long, but I will start hunting in the latter part of this month.
“So, after that, whether you want to be a concubine in the imperial court or become the queen of the world.
"Or, you can use a completely new identity, such as the lost daughter of a noble family who was just found, and marry me in a formal ceremony. It's up to you.
“When dynasties change, people only care about their own little piece of land. As for what happens between you and me, they don’t care.
“Even if they noticed, they didn’t have the courage to speak out in front of us.
"Then we can be a perfect couple in the open and aboveboard."
"Yeah," Yun Ji felt much better after she said that. He nodded, "Xiao Zhizi, I believe you."
Passing by the side hall, Yun Ting had an idea.
Last time, he took Concubine Lian out of the palace, and as luck would have it, they happened to see the short-sighted prince of Beishuo, who blatantly abducted Yun Yan.
Gao Shu said that after that, Zhaoyi Lian was so frightened that she couldn't even leave the Yaohua Palace. It was not until this morning that she had the strength to pay her respects to the empress dowager.
Originally, Lian Zhaoyi was going to pay her respects to the Queen, but after paying her respects to the Empress Dowager, the Queen suddenly felt unwell. She sent her maid to inform all the concubines in the harem that the payment at Kunning Palace was cancelled.
Still seeming to be overwhelmed, Lian Zhaoyi did not stay outside to stroll around, but turned back to Yaohua Palace.
Feeling that the feng shui in the harem has been bad recently, and that they are falling ill one after another, Yun Ting thinks that he should really use his strong yang energy to bring them warmth.
It’s a pity that with Jin An around, this idea could never be implemented.
I can't do anything else, but at least I can watch. Comforting himself in this way, Yun Ting asked Gao Shu to stay at the entrance of Yaohua Palace, and tiptoed to the side hall.
Thinking of Lian Zhaoyi's pitiful and delicate look, who only wanted him, Yun Ting's desire to meet Lian Zhaoyi became stronger.
Lian Zhaoyi missed him so much, so if he suddenly appeared, she would definitely be extremely surprised.
Proud of his blatant preference for Concubine Lian, which made Concubine Lian fall in love with him, Yun Ting walked towards the side hall with light steps, like a thief.
Lan Fu was standing at the door watching. When she saw a man hunched over and looking around coming over here, she thought he was a bold thief.
When she saw clearly the dragon robe on the person coming, Lan Fu opened her mouth slightly and let out a shrill cry in her heart.
Why does His Majesty rarely come here on ordinary days, but he will definitely come when the prince is here?
