Chapter 234 Not leaving
It took a long time for Shen Xuanxuan to finally react. She bowed to everyone and then followed Song Le'er out the door.
Bai Chuxiao returned to the courtyard, sat down, rubbed her brows tiredly, and suddenly said, "Lanxiang Qingzhu, do you think I am too cruel..."
"Miss, how can you think like that? She is asking for death. She actually dared to harm a child. If we hadn't discovered it this time, she would have succeeded..." Qingzhu said hurriedly.
"Yes, Miss, why think so much about such a person? It would not be a pity even if she died a thousand times. What you need to do now is to rest well and never disturb the fetus again..." Lanxiang also comforted her.
"Recently, except for the confidants in the palace and my grandmother's side, everyone else has disappeared, so as to avoid encountering so many troubles. The little kid can't stand the tossing..." Bai Chuxiao nodded and touched her belly.
"Miss, you should have thought so earlier..." Lanxiang said with a smile.
The military camp of Prince Yan's Mansion is located in the belly of a mountain on the south bank of the Huai River. Inside the main tent, everyone was a little surprised to see Cui Hao suddenly appear from Yongzhou.
Chu Tianze's eyes tightened, and he asked in a deep voice, "Did something happen to Xiaoxiao?"
Cui Hao glanced at Shen Tao who was standing beside him before saying, "Your Highness, Madam Shen tried to murder the young master but failed. She even spoke nonsense in the palace by relying on the merits of the Shen family... and finally cursed the princess and the young master. The princess specially ordered her subordinates to recall General Shen..."
Song Fei, who was always loud, was a little bit speechless after hearing this. Damn it, Mrs. Shen Tao must really think that the Shen family is living too well, so she is so eager to die...
"What, Xiaoxiao, is there anything wrong..." Chu Tianze quickly stood up and asked.
"My wife was in the mansion and found it in time. The princess is fine!"
Shen Tao, who was standing by, saw that it was his family's business, his face turned green and he was sweating coldly. He knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, it was my fault for not disciplining her properly. That shrew actually said nonsense behind my back. But the Shen family has no ulterior motives. Your Majesty, please understand. I will go back and apologize to the princess in person..."
"Okay, Shen Tao, I've given your Shen family too much face, and you've repeatedly displeased the princess. If anything happens between the princess and my daughter this time, you'll have to go to me and apologize in the underworld..." Chu Tianze said coldly, looking at Shen Tao lying on the ground.
Shen Tao quickly said, "Your Majesty, please calm down. I have always respected the princess. My wife's affairs were not my intention..."
Song Fei snorted coldly, "But what your man did was really dishonest. If the princess and the young master are hurt, can you bear the consequences? But my lord, Shen Tao and I admire the princess very much. I believe he has absolutely no other intentions..."
After all, the two have worked together for many years, and he knows Shen Tao's personality very well. He certainly has no complaints against Prince Yan's Mansion, but he is not at home all year round, so it is hard to say about other people in the Shen Mansion.
Chu Tianze said coldly, "Cui Hao, is the princess really okay?"
"Your Highness, the princess is fine for the time being, but Mrs. Shen's final curse was too vicious, and the princess is in a bad mood..." Cui Hao glanced at Shen Tao coldly and said in a cold voice.
"Cui Hao and Song Fei will stay here. Everything should proceed as planned. I have to go back. As for Shen Tao, since the princess asked you to go back, you should go back. If the Shen family does something weird again, you don't have to follow me anymore..."
After saying that, he told no one to speak or ask, then disappeared on his horse. It was obvious that he had no intention of taking Shen Tao with him.
Shen Tao stood up with a sullen face, looked at the two people in the tent and said, "Excuse me, both of you!"
"Stop talking and go home quickly. The princess returned to Yongzhou to recuperate, but your family has made her uneasy. If this matter is not handled properly, you know what will happen..." Song Fei sighed.
Cui Hao snorted coldly, "I have to remind you, General, that Madam Shen will not be able to survive for what she did and said. Miss Shen has already been executed. If General Shen wants to go back and plead for mercy, there is no need to do so. It would just make the princess angry for nothing."
Shen Tao bowed and sighed, "I know, thank you both, I'll go ahead!" Then he took a few trusted men, mounted their horses, and headed straight for Yongzhou.
When there were only two people left in the tent, Cui Hao bowed and said, "General Song, please tell me the current situation in detail. I will cooperate with you!"
Song Fei nodded, and the two began to discuss the war. Now that the Qinglong Camp was expanding and had those special weapons, Cui Hao had a lot of things to do in Yongzhou. However, Murong Xuan couldn't leave because of her upcoming child. Among the generals who stayed in Yongzhou, Bai Chuxiao had to first send the one Cui Hao sent...
At night, Bai Chuxiao sat in the yard, staring at the stars in the sky in a trance, and her bulging belly became more obvious under her thin green dress.
"Princess, the wind is blowing, why don't you go back..." Lanxiang whispered softly. These days, she always felt that the princess was not so happy.
"It's boring in the room, sit for a while..." Bai Chuxiao said softly, holding her chin.
She had always known that it was not easy for women to get pregnant, but she had never experienced it. Now that she had experienced it herself, she realized and understood better why so many women would be depressed during pregnancy and eventually die from dystocia. Only today did she truly understand the feelings of her mother, whom she had never met.
Even now she can't help but have random thoughts. Boredom, longing, and all kinds of nostalgia seem to come out inexplicably and she can't control it at all. Of course, it may also be because she is too idle.
Bai Chuxiao looked at the scenery in the yard. The night was as dark as water, but the yard was very bright. The slightly yellow lanterns gave people an unreal feeling. Suddenly, a dark figure appeared at the gate of the yard, standing in the wind, with his robe gently blown up.
Seeing the familiar figure under the lantern, Bai Chuxiao stood up, her nose slightly sour...
Under the eaves, Chu Tianze felt distressed for no reason when he saw her beautiful and thin face. He quickly stepped forward and gently hugged her in his arms, "Xiaoxiao, I'm back..."
"Yeah! I know." Bai Chuxiao leaned on his shoulder, feeling the familiar smell, she sniffed and felt a little more at ease.
"I'm not leaving. I will stay with you and wait for our little baby to be born safely." Chu Tianze felt the emotions of the woman in his arms, his eyes slightly red.
"Okay, then I'll be selfish for once. You are not allowed to go anywhere before Baozi is born..." Bai Chuxiao held him tightly with both hands and said softly.
When the little maids in the courtyard saw the two people snuggling together, they quickly retreated. Lanxiang and the others looked at each other and breathed a sigh of relief. It was good that the prince was back. The princess had looked calm these days, but the few of them who had been by her side knew that her mood was not right at all. The calmness was just an act for Madam and Madam Murong to see.
