Pregnant Before the Royal Marriage

Jiang Ning limped out of her quarters one day and entered the Jiang family's second courtyard, just as the Emperor was selecting a concubine for Prince Yu.  Noble ladies from high-ranking families put in their best efforts to participate in the selection, but the flower fell on Jiang Ning, who was merely there to watch the spectacle.  Jiang Ning was confused. She dared not let Prince Yu be a scapegoat, so she tried every possible way to tell everyone she was pregnant. However, no one believed her.  When she vomited after eating, they laughed at her for feigning illness. When she felt tired, they laughed at her for pretending to be delicate.

The fifth prince, Prince Yu, was a dashing and handsome young man. He exuded an air of sophistication and regal beauty.

Chapter 332: You Dare to Cuckold Me!

Hearing the voices getting closer, Li Jixian became anxious, forcefully pushed the woman away, and walked towards the door.

As soon as the door was opened, a bright light shone in, and someone shouted, "It's right here!"

"Break in and catch this adulterous couple!"

By the sound of it, there were more than a dozen people.

Li Jixian was irritated by the light and instinctively closed his eyes. By the time he reacted, people had already rushed in from outside.

There were both men and women.

Leading them was a fierce-looking woman in her thirties, holding a pair of scissors. Judging by her clothes, she wasn't an ordinary civilian, but likely from a minor official's family.

"Where are they? Where are they?"

She stormed in with the scissors.

The people crowding in behind her instantly brightened the room.
