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.

Gucheng shook his head slightly, fell silent for a moment, and suddenly said, "Actually, we've met before."

"What?" Jiang Ning looked up at him, laughingly said, "Of course we've met before."

Gucheng slowly said, "Five years ago, I was wounded during a mission and fainted by the roadside. Seventh Miss sheltered me from the rain and even gave me a bun."

Jiang Ning was taken aback.

She had no memory of what happened five years ago.

Her original host had long been gone, leaving no memories for her.

Gucheng said, "Seventh Miss may not remember, but I do. I just didn't expect that you were the Seventh Miss the General and the Prime Minister have been desperately searching for."

He spoke slowly, every word crystal-clear, fluently without any hesitation.
