Now she was amazed by the radiance of motherhood.

"The fetus' condition is very unstable. If we are not careful, it may lead to miscarriage..." Jiang Xue analyzed seriously.

Hearing the word "abortion", Qu Xin couldn't help but clench her knees. She said firmly: "So I came to you for help. Looking at the ten countries, only you can help me resist the power of the Yin Dragon and protect my child."

Qu Xin had never been afraid of anything, but this time was different. She was afraid that Yinglong's power would take away her child, and she was also worried about losing the last connection with her beloved.

Fear flashed in her eyes. Jiang Xue saw it all and realized that Qu Xin had changed.

Who made this little devil who always did what he wanted become like this? Jiang Xue was very curious. But now was not the time to explore.

"Don't worry, I will do my best to protect your child." Thinking of Minglang and Liuli, Jiang Xue agreed to Qu Xin's request and promised to help her resist the backlash of Yinglong's power and save the fetus.

"Then I'll leave it to you, senior sister." Qu Xin said with a blink.

"It's only now that you remember to call me senior sister. Have a good rest and stop saying nice things." Jiang Xue smiled and tapped Qu Xin's forehead.

"By the way, have you seen Qu Ruchen and the others? Since your power exploded, Master has brought people from the Five Poison Sect to look for you." Jiang Xue said as she covered Qu Xin with the quilt, only to find that she had fallen asleep. "What a sleepyhead."

At this time, Fu Dong came in with a basin of water and called softly, "Princess..." Seeing this, Jiang Xue signaled her to leave quietly.

The two of them carefully exited the room.

However, as soon as he went out, Qu Xin, who had been pretending to be asleep, opened his eyes with a complicated expression.

Later, in Xiao Zhan's study, Jiang Xue asked directly, "How is Qiu Qianhuan doing recently?"

"He just came back from completing a mission. Do you need his help?" Xiao Zhan asked.

"Some medicinal herbs need to be collected for Master." As she spoke, Jiang Xue handed Xiao Zhan two sketches and sat down next to him naturally.

"No problem, I'll arrange it right away." Xiao Zhan replied.

Qing Feng was summoned and went to Linglong Pavilion with the drawings, and also brought the order to Qiu Qianhuan.

At this time, the memorial in Xiao Zhan's hand caught Jiang Xue's attention, especially the two words "Xiyong" which made her frown slightly.

"Is there any movement in Xiyong?" she asked.

"Yes, on the third day of next month, Chu Feimo will come to visit in person." Xiao Zhan put down his pen and turned to her and said, "He is coming to arrange a marriage."

"So his target is me?" Jiang Xue asked with a raised eyebrow.

"That's what he planned, but I won't give him the chance." Xiao Zhan smiled, then took out a long box from the side and opened it to reveal a scroll, "The edict to confer the title of Queen is ready."

Seeing the jade seal and Xiao Zhan's handprint printed on the scroll, Jiang Xue was slightly surprised: "There are still many rumors about us now. Issuing the edict at this time may cause trouble."

"It is precisely because of these rumors that this edict is even more necessary." Xiao Zhan explained, "Rumors are spreading everywhere in the capital. I am not responding because I am waiting for the right time. This will prevent others from thinking about you and calm the gossip."

No matter how rampant the rumors are, they are ultimately just empty talk. Once the official edict is announced, everything will be settled.

Common people usually like to talk about the secrets of the palace, but this has limited impact on the royal family.

Xiao Zhan deliberately did not clarify, making the truth confusing and taking the initiative.

When this edict is made public, it will completely crush all the rumors. Those who spread the rumors will shut up out of fear, and when the source of the news is cut off, the aftermath will naturally dissipate.

Understanding Xiao Zhan's idea, Jiang Xue chuckled: "You have considered it very carefully. So, are you planning to announce it when Chu Feimo visits?"

"That's right. Since the Crown Prince of Xiyong has come from afar, we might as well welcome him with a festive event." Xiao Zhan gently held her hand, "Also, I heard that you brought Qu Xin out of the cold palace?"

"The conditions in the cold palace are terrible, and she is pregnant, so it is indeed not suitable for her to stay there." Jiang Xue nodded and replied.

"Pregnant?" Xiao Zhan asked in surprise, "Do you know who the father of the child is?"

It is said that the guardian of the Five Poison Sect is a terrifying little witch. Xiao Zhan really wants to meet the person who can make such a woman pregnant.

"She didn't say it, but I can see that she is truly in love with that man." If Qu Xin wasn't really in love, with her personality, how could she allow other men to get even a step closer to her?

"This is really interesting." Xiao Zhan's mouth curled up slightly. It seems that he has to send someone to investigate the identity of this mysterious man.

At this time, the maid came in and reported: "Your Majesty, Nanny Mo Yan is here."

The two exchanged glances and signaled the maid to bring someone in. Nanny Mo Yan was usually the empress dowager's messenger, and this visit obviously had something to convey to her.

"Your Majesty, Princess." Mo Yan bowed and said, "I am here to convey the Empress Dowager's wishes.

The Queen Mother said that since you ascended the throne, the concubines in the harem have rarely gathered together.

Therefore, she specially arranged a flower banquet, hoping that Princess Changle could also attend so that she could get to know and make friends with everyone. "

"Thank you for your concern, Madam Queen. Thank you for your help." Jiang Xue smiled and stood up, personally helping Mo Yan up. "Please tell the Queen Queen that I will be there on time."

"I will do as you say." Mo Yan nodded. "Also, the Queen Mother mentioned that we can bring along the guardian of the Five Poison Sect."

"I understand." Jiang Xue agreed, and then Mo Yan left.

When Mo Yan walked away, the smile on Jiang Xue's face disappeared and she became serious. "What do you think about this?"

Looking at Xiao Zhan who also had a solemn expression, she sat down beside him and leaned on his shoulder. The familiar ambergris made her feel a little calmer.

"It would be fine if he just invited you to the banquet, but he specifically mentioned Qu Xin, so I'm afraid he has other intentions," Xiao Zhan analyzed.

"It seems that the Queen Mother is wary of Qu Xin." Jiang Xue said thoughtfully.

It was indeed scary the last time Qu Xin lost control and injured many guards in an instant. It would have been difficult for me to stay calm if it were me.

"The Empress Dowager is not unreasonable. Let's explain the matter of Qu Xin to her carefully. Perhaps she will understand." Xiao Zhan believed that as long as the situation was explained clearly, the Empress Dowager would not make things too difficult for him.

"I'll give it a try." Jiang Xue nodded in agreement, feeling that the recent events had come one after another, giving her a headache.

Seeing that she frowned slightly, Xiao Zhan asked with concern, "What's wrong? Do you have a headache?" He pressed his warm big hand gently on her temple, trying to relieve her discomfort.

"I'm just a little tired. I just need to rest for a while." She replied softly.

With his massage, the pain in my temple was relieved.

When she opened her eyes, she met his gaze.

"Xiaoxue..." Her eyes were a little confused, but they touched his heartstrings.

The maids outside the study had already left, the doors and windows were closed, leaving only the moonlight quietly shining into the room.
