After the princess was reborn, she kissed the ruthless kidnapper

Chapter 188 "Because... the crown prince of Anguo said he could."

During the time when Jiang Ci'an had a high fever, Shen Changle took extra care of him.

Wipe the face, feed, clean the wound and change the dressing.

I do everything myself and never delegate to others.

Even when she went to bed at night, she would pat him and soothe him like a child, humming dog songs softly.

While Jiang Ci'an was enjoying himself, he also felt sorry for her having to work so hard while pregnant.

Sometimes, even for small things like taking medicine or eating, he said he would do it himself, but she wouldn't allow him to.

"Your injuries this time are serious. In two days, you will have to make another long journey back to Anguo to borrow troops... I want to take better care of you while I can be with you."

Hearing her say this, Jiang Ci'an felt even more uneasy.

He held her hand while feeding her medicine, his tone filled with panic.

"Changle, we agreed not to be impulsive. Wait for me to come back and we'll go rescue them together."

Shen Changle lowered his head and scooped the medicine from the bowl, his eyes flickering.

After a long while, he softly responded.

"……Um."

She was afraid that he would worry, so she didn't dare tell him:

In the past two days, the emperor's uncle received another threatening letter from Lu Mingchao.

Threatened...

If he doesn't give him clear information, he will break his brother's legs...

She knew better than anyone what kind of person Lu Mingchao was.

She can't take the risk!

The only option is to let the emperor's uncle negotiate the wedding date with him first and delay it for the time being.

Jiang Ci'an knew her too well.

Seeing her like this, I guessed that she must be worried about something.

He coaxed softly:

"Changle, look up at me...promise me that if anything happens, I'll face it with you, okay?"

Shen Changle raised her eyes, but didn't dare to look directly into the questioning look in his eyes.

Only vaguely covered:

"Alright, the Anguo envoy will arrive at the border town tomorrow. Drink the medicine quickly. We have to go to the provincial capital to prepare for tomorrow's event."

Jiang Ci'an knew her temper. She didn't want to talk, and he couldn't get the answer even if he forced her.

I can only take the medicine first and then go and ask Shen Tingyu later.

pity……

The wedding date is a matter of great importance, so Shen Tingyu didn't dare to tell him easily.

He was afraid that Jiang Ci'an would go back on his word and refuse to return to Anguo to borrow troops, thus delaying his plan.

It was not until the two of them entered the territory of Anguo that Shen Tingyu told him the truth.

Jiang Ci'an, upon hearing the news, became increasingly anxious...

Shen Changle was also in a state of panic.

Everyone in the military camp only knew that Shen Changle and Shen Tingyu took Jiang Ci'an out, apparently to meet someone.

However, out of the three people who went, only Shen Changle came back!

Moreover, not long after she returned, a terrifying news came out in the capital—

Lu Mingchao was named the Ming King of a different surname, and he will marry the eldest princess on the thirteenth of next month!

When the army heard the news, there was a huge uproar, and Shen Changle almost couldn't suppress it.

Even Zhao Dasheng and Hu Ya came in to question her:

"Second sister-in-law, didn't Lu Mingchao rebel? Why did your royal brother make him king and grant you a marriage? Where is my second brother? Where did he go?"

"Do I even need to ask? Brother Ci'an must have been murdered by her! I've long said that the child in her belly has an unknown origin and might not be Brother Ci'an's at all!"

Shen Changle was overwhelmed.

Fortunately, Zhu Jiuxing and Mo Qingfeng still firmly believed in her and protected her:

"This is impossible! Hu Ya, stop talking nonsense! Second sister-in-law can't possibly hurt Second Brother. Besides, the baby in Second Sister-in-law's belly must be Second Brother's!"

"How did you know?"

"How should I know? I watched my second sister-in-law get pregnant with this child! How could I not know?"

Zhu Jiujin blurted out in a hurry, making everyone in the tent blush and stunned.

After realizing that what he said was wrong, he spoke hurriedly.

"Ah, that's not what I meant! I meant... Second sister-in-law is pregnant in Yuanyang, Lao Mo and I both know it! Lao Mo, don't you agree?"

He kept poking Mo Qingfeng's lower back, trying to get him to say something.

"Yes, yes! Commander Jiang told me that when we wiped out the Niutou Gang, Her Royal Highness the Princess was already pregnant, that is, when we were in Yuanyang City."

Hu Ya was still angry.

"So what? Now that Brother Ci'an is missing, she turns around and wants to marry her enemy while pregnant! She didn't even bother to look for Brother Ci'an!

If this isn't an adulterer or an adulteress murdering her husband, what is it?"

Mo Qingfeng gave her a fierce look.

"Have you been reading too many picture books? Your brain must be damaged!

If His Highness had approved of this marriage, she wouldn't have gone to Juyang to look for General Jiang with her big belly a few days ago!

Isn't it redundant to take care of him wholeheartedly these days?"

"That's right! Lao Mo, well said!"

Zhu Jiuxing protected Shen Changle and gave Mo Qingfeng a thumbs up.

Zhao Dasheng sniffed and changed sides at the last minute.

"Actually... I also believe Second Sister-in-law. I'm just confused. Why didn't Second Sister-in-law reject this marriage? Why didn't she go and ask Second Brother...

"Second brother, where on earth has he been? How can he sit still like that?"

This made Hu Ya unhappy, and she elbowed Zhao Dasheng hard.

"That's not what you said just now! You said both good and bad things... You made me feel like a nobody!"

Shen Changle rubbed his throbbing temples and signaled Xuanque to guard outside the door.

Finally, he lowered his hand that was supporting his forehead.

“I am very pleased that everyone here has the courage to stand up and speak for Ci’an.

This means... you are all Ci'an's confidants, people worthy of his trust.

I won’t hide this from you.”

She sighed softly, feeling the fire in her heart rushing to her throat, making each word difficult to speak.

"Now, Qi is plagued by internal and external troubles, and the military is demoralized.

It is difficult for us to defeat Yue Jun and Lu Mingchao alone... This is obvious to everyone."

"So your brother wants to use you to curry favor with Lu Mingchao?"

Hu Ya spoke bluntly, causing Shen Changle to glare at her unhappily with a bad look on his face.

Mo Qingfeng saw this and hurriedly stopped him:

"Stop talking nonsense and wait until His Highness finishes speaking!"

It was as if she was afraid that if she was a second late, Shen Changle would punish her.

Shen Changle withdrew his gaze.

She wasn't really angry with Hu Ya.

She knew Hu Ya's temper.

However, when she thought about her brother being in dire straits and still being misunderstood like this, she felt a little uncomfortable...

After hesitating for a moment, she moved the cup in front of her.

"Have you ever heard of using the emperor to control the princes?"

Mo Qingfeng and Zhu Jiuxing reacted immediately after hearing this and were horrified.

"Your Highness is saying..."

"Ah."

Hu Ya and Zhao Dasheng still didn't quite understand.

"Why are you talking in riddles? Can you speak human language?"

Mo Qingfeng had no choice but to explain:

"That is to say... Your Highness's marriage to Lu Mingchao was not the Emperor's intention. It was... someone who threatened the Emperor and forced him to issue this order."

Mo Qingfeng was still tactful and took his brother's face into consideration.

Hu Ya nodded, not quite understanding, and then asked the key question.

"What does that have to do with Brother Ci'an's disappearance?"

Everyone looked at Shen Changle, and she answered after hesitation.

"Ci'an... and my uncle went to Anguo to borrow troops."

"Ah? Going to Anguo to borrow troops? Can Anguo lend them?"

"can."

Seeing Shen Changle so confident, Hu Ya became more and more confused.

"What?"

"Because... the crown prince of Anguo said he could."
