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. When her belly grew larger, they laughed at her for overeating.  When Jiang Ning wanted a doctor's confirmation, all eighteen doctors she consulted had the same opinion: "You're just eating too much!" The fifth prince, Prince Yu, was a dashing and handsome young man. He exuded an air of sophistication and regal beauty. This was how the common people of Chang'an City typically described him.  But the real Prince Yu was cold and ruthless, using women without any emotional attachment.  He knew that the second madam of the Jiang family was the Emperor's secret love, and he also knew that the daughter recently brought back by the Jiang family looked exactly like the second madam in her youth.  So, even though the girl had a limp, he still tossed the embroidered flower in his hand into her lap.

Chapter 943: I've got the He Family covered _1

Before an incense burned out, the child He Li stood in front of Jiang Ning.

The child was about ten years old, with fair skin and gentle demeanor, similar to He Tang. At that moment, his clothes were torn and his hair was disheveled, shivering from fear.

He was greatly scared.

Obvious traces of rope burns could still be seen on his wrists.

Jiang Ning gave Gufeng a look.

Gufeng immediately grabbed a servant, stripped off his clothes, and put them on He Li.

The servant did not dare to resist.

Only then did He Li start to wipe away his tears, and timidly called Jiang Ning, "Sister Ning'er."

A few years ago, when Jiang Ning was still living in the alley, He Li was only six or seven years old and often followed He Tang to play with her.

They had a good relationship.

Although it was inappropriate for him to call her that way now, Jiang Ning actually liked to hear it, and Gufeng, naturally, would not correct him.

"He Li, come here."
