Married To The Cruel Crown Prince

Chapter 629 - Carrying The Child Of My Son

Sheng Li knitted his brows and put the cup down. "Wang Hao, it will be forcing feelings on Huo Jin. Leave this idea," he opined. Xiao Zhan found the atmosphere was turning tense, so he decided to change the topic.

"I will meet the daughter of the Minister of Finance," Xiao Zhan stated. Thus, he grabbed the attention of Sheng Li and Wang Hao towards him.

"Why?" Wang Hao asked confusedly.

"My father wants me to marry the daughter of Minister Li. So, they have arranged a private meeting for us," Xiao Zhan said and ended up smiling.

"It seems you already like her," Sheng Li said.

"Yes, Your Majesty. I have seen her in the market a few times," Xiao Zhan asserted.

"That's good to hear," Sheng Li replied and looked at Wang Hao.

"Don't sulk, Wang Hao. Here drink more and focus on your life first. Let Yin Na enjoy her life. She is only 18. She has to see many things around her," Sheng Li cheered up his mood and handed him the cup. Wang Hao hummed and took it from Sheng Li.

"Do you know the name of the Prime Minister's daughter?" Sheng Li asked Wang Hao.

"No. I have heard it but I have forgotten about it," Wang Hao replied and looked into the wine.

"It's Ai Huian. I have heard that many marriage proposals are coming for Miss Ai but she has no interest in them," Xiao Zhan stated.

"You know many things, Xiao," Sheng Li praised him and then gazed back at Wang Hao. "She likes Wang Hao, that's why she is refusing the proposals," Sheng Li stated.

"The Emperor has told me earlier about it. Sadly, I had no idea about this," Wang Hao muttered and started to drink the wine. "Your Majesty, while coming here I saw Prince Shi Zhihao and Princess Bai Yaling in the Royal Garden. I think that they both will get together well," he asserted.

Sheng Li was amused to hear that. Wang Hao should have talked about Ai Huian, instead, he started to talk about Bai Yaling. It was strange of him.

"Prince Shi Zhihao has not confirmed whether he will marry Princess Bai or not. He wants to know her a little first and only then will he tell me what he wants," Sheng Li told them. "I also hope that Prince Shi agrees for this marriage," he added. He picked the jar and found it was empty.

Upon seeing that, Xiao Zhan called a maidservant inside and ordered her to bring the wine jar.

"Prince Shi shall agree for this marriage. Princess Bai is a nice woman," Wang Hao stated. Sheng Li hummed.

"Let's see. Prince Shi has no problem that Princess Bai was once married. I do not know why he asked for time. He did not ask me many questions," Sheng Li proclaimed. The maidservant came inside and brought the wine jar in a tray. She placed it on the table and took away the emptied one.

"Let me pour it, Your Majesty," Wang Hao offered. He almost picked the jar when another maidservant came inside.

"Your Majesty, Princess Bai fainted while conversing with Prince Shi. The Royal Physician wants to see His Majesty," she informed Sheng Li with a panicked expression.

"What?" Sheng Li was shocked to hear that. He stood up and so did the two Generals.

"Where is the Royal Physician?" Sheng Li asked her.

"In the chamber of Princess Bai, Your Majesty," the maidservant answered politely. They left drinking in the middle and left for Princess Bai's chamber. Sheng Li found Prince Shi Zhihao outside the chamber, who bowed upon seeing him. He walked in while the two Generals stayed behind.

The Royal Physician stood up from the stool upon seeing Sheng Li in the chamber.

"What happened? Why did you want to see me?" Sheng Li asked.

"Your Majesty, there is something that you must know," the Royal Physician informed Sheng Li, who skeptically looked at him. The expression on the Royal Physician was not pleasant.

"Speak," Sheng Li said sternly.

"Your Majesty, Princess Bai is one month pregnant," the Royal Physician said in a low voice and deeply lowered his head.

"What? Are you sure?" Sheng Li asked him.

"Yes, Your Majesty. I have examined Princess Bai carefully. She is one month pregnant," the Royal Physician confirmed to Sheng Li.

"Hmm. Give extra care to Princess Bai. Employ more servants in her service. Also, what was the reason that she fainted?" Sheng Li asked the Royal Physician.

"Your Majesty, the blood pressure dropped since Princess Bai was standing for a long time," he reasoned. Sheng Li nodded his head and commanded a maidservant to send a message to Consort Ju Fen that he wanted to meet her.

"Bring her here and don't tell anyone now," he said. The maidservant bowed and walked out of the chamber.

After ten minutes, Ju Fen entered the chamber. Sheng Li greeted her first. Ju Fen looked at unconscious Bai Yaling and asked about it.

"She is pregnant for a month," Sheng Li informed her. Ju Fen was delighted to hear that, but then she realized something and the smile disappeared from her lips.

"Your Majesty, but she is going to marry soon," Ju Fen said. "I don't think that any man would accept--" Ju Fen paused as she saw Sheng Li was glaring at her.

She lowered her eyes. "Forgive me, Your Majesty. I am only saying that Princess Bai will no longer be alone as she is carrying the child of my son," Ju Fen said with a smile and tears formed in her eyes.

"This is something I don't want to hear from you. Don't even try to say this. It will give her more stress," Sheng Li stated. Ju Fen did not like the way Sheng Li talked to her, but she did not say anything.

"Yes, Your Majesty," she said. However, in her head, Ju Fen had thought that she would not let marry Bai Yaling to Prince Shi Zhihao.
