The once arrogant Queen Su has now become the target of public criticism. Those who once looked down on her now humiliate her, and these humiliations make her hate Xiao Zhan and Jiang Xue even more.

At this time, Fang Jing, who was brought by Mo Xue, became her tool for revenge. She handed over the map of the secret passage of the palace without hesitation, so that Fang Jing could avoid the guards and enter and exit the palace.

Chu Feimo heard this, touched his chin and thought for a moment, then asked to see the map. "With it, we can easily enter the palace and take Jiang Xue away." He said.

Fang Jing handed over the blueprint as ordered and reported everything to Chu Feimo, as well as his experience in the palace. Facing this prince, Fang Jing's heart was in turmoil.

He knew that if Prince Ming succeeded to the throne, it would be extremely disadvantageous to Miss Fang Lansu. Fang Lansu was like a goddess in his heart. He had been saved by her since childhood, and he would never allow anyone to hurt her.

Since Prince Ming cannot protect the young lady, let Chu Feimo do it instead.

Although Chu Feimo was not a simple character, he at least knew how to deal with current affairs better than Prince Ming. When the Fang family proposed to cooperate with him, the prince's reaction was much more positive than Prince Ming's.

He personally promised that he would make the eldest daughter the queen and ensure that the Fang family would prosper for a hundred years. For such a promise, Fang Jing would go through fire and water without hesitation.

"Fang Jing, since you can enter the palace once, it wouldn't hurt to go in again." Chu Feimo closed the map and turned his gaze to Fang Jing.

"If Your Highness has any order, I can enter the palace again immediately." At this time, Mo Xue had already treated Fang Jing's wound, and Fang Jing knelt on one knee and replied.

"Don't worry. You just caused a commotion, and Xiao Zhan must be more alert.

Besides, the plum blossom darts on you have attracted the attention of many Yulin cavalry. We can't stay here for long, we have to move to a safer place."

The smell of blood outside the door became stronger and stronger. Chu Feimo said without turning around: "Pack your things and leave here with me. I remember Jun Li has a yard in Beiling. Mo Xue, lead the way."

Anyway, the emperor has given him plenty of time to go on the mission to Beiling, and Xiyong is taken care of by the Fang family. Everything is under control and there is no need to rush.

Once he gets the support of Jiang Xue and Qian Kingdom's 300,000 Iron Cloud Army, he will naturally return to challenge Chu Jingming.

Time passed quickly, and several months passed in the blink of an eye. During this period, Jiang Xue's increasingly bulging belly became the focus of attention, although due to her special physique, her pregnant belly seemed smaller than that of other pregnant women.

Xiao Zhan asked Doctor Li to check Jiang Xue's pulse almost every day.

Seeing Doctor Li coming out, Xiao Zhan hurried forward and asked, "Doctor Li, how is Xiaoxue's condition?"

"The princess pays great attention to her health and takes good care of herself on weekdays. She is in good condition now. Your Majesty, please rest assured," Doctor Li replied gently.

It is rare to see Xiao Zhan with such an anxious expression since he ascended the throne.

"Then why is Xiaoxue's belly smaller than others?"

"Everyone's physique is different. The princess is naturally slender, and with her special physique, this situation is normal."

Doctor Li explained and handed the prescription to Fu Dong, asking her to go to the Imperial Hospital to get the medicine.

"Oh, by the way, the wounded soldier we rescued a few months ago has almost recovered. Does the emperor want to visit him?"

A few months ago, three seriously injured patrol soldiers were found in a remote alley in Yujing. They all had their throats cut by a sharp knife, with the technique being clean and neat.

Two of them died on the spot and only one survived, fortunately he was found and treated in time.

"What's his current situation?" Xiao Zhan asked.

A few months ago, Xiao Zhan sent the Yulin Army to track the scent of the Plum Blossom Dart with the intention of capturing Fang Jing.

But the operation failed and the Yulin Army suffered heavy losses. When Qingfeng arrived, he found that more than half of the troops had been killed.

They found a house where the Yulin Army was attacked. It was empty, with items neatly arranged and several bottles of medicine powder and bandages scattered on the ground. Obviously, Chu Feimo had left here earlier.

Xiao Zhan sealed off the four gates of the capital, but could not find any trace of Chu Feimo. He speculated that Chu Feimo was still hiding in Yujing, but his whereabouts were secretive.

Thinking of Fang Jing evading Qing Feng's patrol and sneaking into the palace to attack Xiao Xue, Xiao Zhan couldn't sleep or eat. Especially since Xiao Xue was pregnant, this gave Fang Jing an opportunity to take advantage of her.

However, several months passed and Fang Jing never took any action, which made Xiao Zhan feel more and more depressed. As Xiaoxue's due date approached, his worries deepened.

"Your Majesty, except for the injury to my throat which makes me unable to speak, my other injuries are not serious."

The soldier was the only eyewitness to the murder and the only witness against Xiyong, so he had to be questioned carefully.

Recently, Chu Jingming has been sending news that the Fang family intends to support Chu Feimo to take the throne and has frequent contacts with the princelings.

Chu Jingming sensed something was wrong and urgently asked Xiao Zhan to help track down Chu Feimo in order to quickly stop the conspiracy.

Once it is confirmed that Chu Feimo has committed a crime, even if he is the crown prince of Xiyong, he cannot escape the sanctions of Beiling Law, and even the Emperor of Xiyong himself cannot protect him.

"Bring him in later. I will interrogate him myself."

At this time, there was a slight sound coming from the inner room. Xiao Zhan turned around and saw Jiang Xue holding her waist and getting up. He immediately waved his hand to let Doctor Li leave, and he stepped forward and gently supported her to walk to the outer room.

"You're easily tired when you're pregnant, why don't you take a rest for a while?" When facing Jiang Xue, Xiao Zhan's eyes were full of tenderness.

"It's not comfortable to lie down for too long. It's good to get up and walk around." Jiang Xue smiled and gently stroked her abdomen with one hand.

"The baby is quite quiet today. If he were as active as usual, I would not have enough energy to handle it."

After several months of recuperation, Jiang Xue's body looks healthier and fuller than before.

Looking at her, Xiao Zhan's throat moved slightly, and a complex emotion flashed in his eyes: "Xiaoxue..."

His low and hoarse voice revealed his inner desire, and his palms on Jiang Xue's waist were so hot that they seemed to be burning.

"You... why are you like this?" Jiang Xue's cheeks flushed. She didn't expect him to have such an idea at this time. How rude!

She patted his forehead gently, but he caught her hand and gently brought it to his lips. This scoundrel! Although she thought so in her heart, her actions seemed a little indulgent.

Jiang Xue only felt her cheeks burning, as if they were on fire.

"Xiaoxue, it's been several months, and I haven't even dared to touch you for the sake of the baby." There was a hint of grievance in his voice, like a child who didn't get to eat candy.

He gently turned her to face him, lifted her chin, and gazed into those enchanting eyes. It was a gentle kiss at first, then gradually became passionate.

Considering her current condition, Xiao Zhan still exercised some restraint.

"You must compensate me after our little one is born." When he said this, there was a hint of childishness in his tone, which made Jiang Xue want to laugh but also feel helpless.
