The Prime Minister Seduced Me to have Babies!

The Empress spoke disdainfully: "You go ahead, I have my own words to say when I see His Majesty."

Princess Shoukang, losing face, stormed off with her palace maids.

The madams and young ladies exchanged glances.

They had come today to welcome and celebrate Princess Shoukang, but now the host had left. What was going on?

After Princess Shoukang departed, the Empress regained her dignified elegance and said with a smile: "The banquet is ready, please take your seats."

She personally took Yun Jiao’s hand and headed to the neighboring flower hall.

After lunch, the madams and young ladies began to take their leave.

Yun Jiao also excused herself and returned to the Prince Mansion.

She had barely settled in when Jiang Youzhi returned.

With a gloomy expression, he entered the backyard and saw Yun Jiao lying on the bed for a nap. He sat at the bedside, gently touched her face.

Yun Jiao was barely asleep and instantly opened her eyes, staring at him fixedly.

Jiang Youzhi leaned down and gave her a kiss, "I know everything that happened in the palace. Don’t worry, I’ll handle it well."

Yun Jiao looked at Jiang Youzhi, pursed her lips and said: "You’ve never asked me how things were at the Crown Prince’s residence. Do you have any thoughts in your heart?"

Jiang Youzhi suddenly became flustered, "Jiao Jiao, why are you saying this suddenly?"

"I felt there was no need to ask, so I didn’t ask."

"No matter what, as long as you can come back to me—"

"See, even you think this way, so how can we blame others," Yun Jiao said with a sad tone.

Jiang Youzhi climbed onto the bed, embracing Yun Jiao and explained incoherently, "It’s really not, I haven’t thought about anything."

"I thought, if you want to talk I’ll listen, if you don’t want to say anything, I won’t ask."

Although they had returned to Chu Country for three years, the couple never openly discussed this matter.

Yun Jiao felt she was innocent, so she didn’t bother to speak, moreover, even if the Crown Prince had done something to her, she didn’t feel it was her fault.

Under such circumstances, preserving her life and that of the child inside her was most important.

Chastity, compared to life, she felt life was still more important.

Those noble scholars shouting for women to maintain chastity were only thinking for themselves, after all, no one wants to be wearing a green hat.

If the world truly believed chastity was more important than life, then the imperial concubines and princesses of Great Chu would neither become concubines nor entertain guests.

Jiang Youzhi was afraid that bringing up those matters would sadden Yun Jiao.

Yun Jiao then calmly recounted the events at the Hui Ning Prince Mansion.

After finishing, she turned her head away, unwilling to indulge Jiang Youzhi anymore.

She felt that once a couple has to explain such matters, it represents distrust.

Jiang Youzhi had always cherished Yun Jiao above everything else; he could sense even the slightest displeasure from her and quickly responded.

Even though Yun Jiao appeared calm at this moment, it didn’t mean she wasn’t angry.

Jiang Youzhi held her tightly, "I don’t care what others think, I didn’t ask because I mind, I’m truly afraid you don’t want to recall those things."

"Whether you speak of these things or not makes no difference, you’re still my wife, and I’m still your husband."

He kissed Yun Jiao’s cheek repeatedly, "Don’t be angry, as for Princess Shoukang, I will take care of her."

Yun Jiao hummed softly, turning away in defiance.

Jiang Youzhi murmured, "Jiao Jiao, I was wrong, what do I need to do for you to forgive me?"

Just then, a voice suddenly sounded at the bedside, "Daddy, if you’re wrong you should be punished to kneel."
