Pregnant Before the Royal Marriage

Chapter 708: Chapter 708: He’s Here

“No need.”

“I order you to go. Rest assured, I won’t leave the palace for these three days.”

“…Alright.”

Gucheng fell silent for a moment, holding the box as he disappeared.

Jiang Ning looked at the clear sky, raising her arm to stretch lazily.

Chunlai came running over with her skirt lifted, her face flushed: “Master, Master, Master!”

“Running so fast, I won’t care if you fall.” Jiang Ning plucked a plum blossom, smiling at her.

Chunlai ran to her, excitedly saying: “Master, I just heard that Chief Lin has entered the palace!”

“Chief Lin?”

“That one, that one… Lin Shimo!” Chunlai’s eyes sparkled, “Master, haven’t you heard of him?”

“A famous name indeed.”

“Yes, that very famous Chief Lin!” Chunlai clapped, “I just went to get the clothes and met a little eunuch from Crystal Frost Hall, he told me about it.”

Jiang Ning laughed: “So what if he has arrived? Why are you so excited?”

“When I was still at the Jiang Family, I heard that the most handsome man in Chang’an City was Prince of Yu… that is, our Crown Prince. If there was anyone else who could be compared with him, it was the young master of the Lin Family.”

“Have you seen him before?”

“No.”

“Rumors are just rumors, most of them are false.” Jiang Ning said, “Go play on the side, don’t meddle with Crystal Frost Hall’s affairs.”

Chunlai twisted her fingers in embarrassment: “Master, if you go to Crystal Frost Hall later, can you take me along? Lately, you’ve been going out with Sister Huang Ying or Xiachu, and you haven’t taken me out for a long time.”

Jiang Ning smiled and asked: “How do you know I’m going to Crystal Frost Hall?”

“Because I heard that Wenren Zong is also here.”

“So?”

“Master, don’t you like Wen…”n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

“Chunlai, shut up!” Huang Ying happened to hear their conversation and, startled, hastily stopped her, “What’s wrong with your mouth? Now do you know why the master doesn’t take you out? You dare to say anything!”

Chunlai also regretted her loose lips and quickly knelt down: “This servant knows her mistake, I will never say such a thing again.”

Jiang Ning said: “Get up.”

“Master, you can’t spoil her too much.” Huang Ying glared at Chunlai, “Remember, disasters come from the tongue. If this were to reach the Crown Prince, do you know the consequences? Do you think this is still the Prime Minister’s Mansion where you could say anything?”

Chunlai was terrified: “This servant knows her mistake and won’t dare to do it again.”

Jiang Ning smiled and asked Huang Ying: “Have you also heard of Lin Shimo’s great fame?”

Huang Ying shook her head, then nodded: “I’ve heard a little bit.”

“Then I’m really curious to meet him too.”

“Master, you can’t go.” Huang Ying immediately stopped her, “If Wenren Zong is there, it’s better for you not to go. You should avoid suspicion.”

Jiang Ning thought about it and decided to abandon the idea.

However, to her surprise, Li Hongyuan actually took the initiative to find her and invite her to meet the Emperor at Crystal Frost Hall.

On the way, Jiang Ning asked: “Is Your Highness purposely taking me to see the legendary Chief Lin?”

“You’re overthinking.”

Li Hongyuan looked straight ahead, “There’s another matter I need to discuss with you.”

“The Emperor has something to discuss with me?” Jiang Ning was puzzled, “What is it?”

“You’ll know when we get there.”

With confusion and doubt, Jiang Ning came to the Emperor’s presence with him.

The Emperor lay lazily on a couch, and the hall was still warm as ever.

Jiang Ning immediately saw Wenren Zong and then looked at the young man standing beside him.
