After dawn, a ray of sunlight came in from the outside through the crack of the door and hit the cheek.

Cen Yan opened his eyes, a stabbing pain came from his abdomen, he snorted, and found himself sitting on the ground, leaning against the wall and sleeping all night.

Just then there were footsteps.

Thinking of Xiao Jing's possible return, Cen Yan hurriedly stood up, but fell back halfway.In the end, she could only slowly get up little by little. The door was opened, and Xiaoxiang ran in from the outside.

Cen Yan leaned against her and stood up. Seeing that no one came in, he grabbed Xiaoxiang tightly and asked anxiously, "Where have you been? How are you doing now? Where is Xiao Jing?"

Seeing the bloodstain on Xiaoxiang's neck, Cen Yan was startled, "He wants to kill you?!"

Xiao Xiang sniffed, shook her head reluctantly, and replied in a low voice, "Your Majesty said that the servants should serve the young master, and if there is another mistake, the servants will be killed."

"Oh." Cen Yan calmed down a little, and checked Xiaoxiang's neck, and saw that her neck injury was not serious.So he asked again, "Have you heard any news outside? Who did Xiao Jing catch last night? Are there those two people who climbed the wall to meet before, eh?"

Xiao Xiang thought for a while and replied, "I heard that several of them were arrested. But we didn't meet each other."

"Okay, let's go and have a look now!" Cen Yan couldn't wait, and walked outside.

Xiao Xiang stopped him and said anxiously, "My lord, you can't get out. This place is heavily guarded inside and out, so you can't get out. The prince even ordered people to block the outside of the wall, saying that he would lose you again. Just kill these guards."

Cen Yan paused hesitantly, his thoughts were chaotic, and there was a gurgling sound in his stomach.He hugged his stomach subconsciously, feeling that the stinging pain was a little lighter, but it still hurt a little.

"Young master, no matter what is the matter, it is better... to give birth to the child first. It is really not easy for you to conflict with the prince!" Xiaoxiang persuaded worriedly, "Your affairs, the servants have never told the prince. , but the brocade box you left here was discovered by the crown prince."

Cen Yan listened, and reached out his hand to feel inside the cuff. Fortunately, the jade pendant given to him by Brother Luo was still there.

"Why don't you serve the meal first, young master, please eat the meal first." Xiao Xiang asked.

After much deliberation, Cen Yan could only agree first.

His belly was empty, and the child was too hungry. He couldn't ignore the child.But I don't know what happened to Zhang Wei.Don't lose your temper in that big gun battle, you'd better be gentle, otherwise you will definitely be beaten.

After this time, Cen Yan was looking forward to it every day, but the number of guards inside and outside only increased.I heard from Xiaoxiang that Xiao Lingzai had already moved to his eldest son's residence, and the place is empty now.

It seemed that this place had really become his prison.

Cen Yan was looking forward to Xiao Jing's arrival, but every time he woke up at sunrise, sunset, dusk and midnight, there was no sign of that person.

He won't kill Zhang Wei, will he?

Cen Yan gradually felt hopeless, and called Xiaoxiang to him after dinner, "How is the situation outside now, is martial law still in the city?"

"Anyway, the gate of the city was closed very early. The prince said that spies from foreign enemies entered the city, and the prince thinks that the prince did the right thing. Now he has sent more people to patrol the city back and forth at night." The young master kept on talking, "Also, side concubine Liu is weak because of the death of her brother, and the child in her womb has been lost. The concubine is locked in a small courtyard. I heard that the fourth prince is coming to see her!"

"How do you know so much?" Cen Yan looked at the little girl in surprise. Her master was imprisoned. Why is this little girl so well-informed?

Xiaoxiang blinked her eyes, stretched out her hand and pointed outward, "The servant girl goes out every day, people outside are telling the news, and the servant girl naturally knows. The servant girl also knows that the crown prince made a mistake, and the maidservant's family came to tell the prince. , the prince is troubled by this matter!"

No wonder he didn't come these days, he was busy with this matter.

Hearing this, Cen Yan gradually lost his mind.Rubbing his belly: baby, your father is busy with other things, and he will definitely come to see you after he finishes his work.

"Young master..." Xiaoxiang hesitated to speak, and woke up Cen Yan from deep thinking, and said, "There is a saying, I don't know whether I should say it or not?"

'Whatever you want, just say it. '

Xiaoxiang bit her lip, looked at Cen Yan's big belly, and reached out to touch it lightly, then asked sadly, "Young master, the concubine already knows about this child. Do you think the concubine will: go to the mother to keep it?" son?"

"what?!"

Shocked, Cen Yan stood up abruptly, his face paler, and he looked at Xiao Xiang in shock, "What were you talking about just now! She wants my child?"

Xiaoxiang resentfully replied in a low voice, "People outside say that, because the concubine Shizi has never had any children, and many people think that she will let the servant girl around her be the concubine of the concubine of the son, and after giving birth to a son, she will go directly to the mother to keep the son. .Now, young master, you are about to give birth. If the concubine Shizi thinks this way, she will be sent to the knife!"

These words made Cen Yan feel uneasy.

He looked at Xiaoxiang, staring at her fixedly, "Xiaoxiang, who taught you these words?"

Xiaoxiang is not a girl who can say such things.

But seeing Xiaoxiang hang her head down, she didn't say a word.

"It turns out that even you are divorced from me, so you go. I won't let you follow me into trouble!" Cen Yan turned and entered the room.

"Master! Master!"

Xiaoxiang panicked and chased into the house.Seeing that Cen Yan's face was still cold, she wrung her hands, bit her lip and walked up to her, "Young Master, Master Xiao told this servant."

Xiao Ling again?

"He also said that the son's stomach can't be hidden for a few days. King Changxin will know soon, the court will know, and it will reach the ears of the emperor. If the son wants to die, stay; if you don't want to die, just Leave the child behind."

"Why did I ask you to pass on the message? Couldn't he come and tell me in person?" Cen Yan's face became even paler, and the center of his brows was frowned.

"Master Xiao wanted to come in, but... the guards wouldn't let him in." Xiaoxiang lowered her head in distress.

Cen Yan sat on the couch, lay down on his side, stared at the top of the couch with a blank expression, his heart was full of confusion.

No matter how Xiao Ling is Xiao Jing's person, these words he said are naturally considered from Xiao Jing's standpoint.

Cen Yan knew that even if Xiao Jing could still accommodate him now, it would be much worse than before.

Besides, the baby is about to be born.

This child is at least Xiao Jing's blood, so nothing will happen to him.But I just...

Cen Yan is not worried about himself, he is worried about the child.Give the child to Shi Zifei, can Xie Fanghua raise the child well?This child didn't crawl out of Xie Fanghua's stomach, why would she treat the child well?Furthermore, if it was a girl, Xiao Jing would not like it.

"Little son, what are you thinking." Xiaoxiang asked in a low voice.

"I didn't think about anything." Cen Yan shook his head slowly, and simply closed his eyes.

Now he can't protect himself, but he can no longer take Zhang Wei into consideration.

Cen Yan suddenly thought of the scene where he met Brother Luo Zhang Wei a few days ago.At that time, they were so strange to him, as if they were two people who should not have broken into his life.He even felt they were superfluous.And now, he felt he needed them.If only they were around, he would feel empowered.

Taking a deep breath, Cen Yan's eyes became hot, and tears flowed out after a while.He closed his eyes and turned sideways, pulled the brocade quilt face inward, buried his face in it, and finally burst into tears.

Boom... It's so hard to be a human.

Woooooo... It's even more difficult to be an ancient person.

With a big belly, she was locked in a cage, and in the end, the child died from the mother.

Cen Yan burst into tears, his whole life was just to give birth to Xiao Jing's children.

When the child comes out, he is useless, not even a tool to vent.

How good Xiao Jing was to him in the past, but now he is abandoned like a shoestring.

Is he going to die soon, but the second crystal is not found, and he has no chance to go back.

But taking the child away, he couldn't break through the heavy guards.

He is going to die here eventually.

After crying for a long time, Cen Yan wiped his nose, feeling his stomach was hard and his chest was congested, turned around and looked outside, Xiao Xiang was also secretly wiping tears beside him.

When Cen Yan called her, Xiao Xiang quickly put on a face and came over to answer, "Did I cry just now?"

"Huh?" Xiaoxiang was puzzled, but nodded loyally, "Young master is crying, crying so loudly that even the slaves can hear."

"I didn't cry!" Cen Yan got up, and Xiao Xiang stepped forward to help him.Instead, he grabbed his hand and repeated earnestly, "I didn't cry, I really didn't cry, really!"

"Oh. You said you didn't cry, so you didn't cry." Xiaoxiang nodded, and could only obey his words.

Cen Yan thought for a while, then asked, "Then when others asked, did you say I was crying?"

"Others?" Xiaoxiang thought for a while, then shook her head, and smiled at Cen Yan knowingly, "Young master didn't cry! Young master has never cried before! I have never seen you cry before!"

"Smart girl." Cen Yan praised her, stretched out his hand to gently stroke her hair, his eyes were gentle, "If I can give birth to a smart girl like you, I will be very happy in this life!"

"Why doesn't the young master want the young master? The prince likes it!" Xiaoxiang asked, looking at Cen Yan's swollen belly, with anticipation in his eyes.

"Hmph, if he likes his son, then I like his daughter. If he likes his daughter, I like his son, but it's different from him!" Cen Yan stood up, suddenly thinking about the past, his expression darkened again, and sighed, "Now It's nothing important, don't mention him."
