“Who is Yueyue talking to?”
The familiar arms wrapped around from behind, hugging her waist tightly, yet the palm gently pressed against her lower abdomen.
Qi Yue turned around, her lips brushing against Zhao Xiyan’s cheek.
In an instant, her face heated up.
“Zhao Xiyan, let go now, people come and go here, a lot of people, if someone sees…”
Zhao Xiyan instead pressed his entire face closer, enveloping her from behind.

“Let them see, I’m doting on my woman, who dares to criticize?”
“Still, you should be a little more discrete! You’re Zhao Xiyan…”
Qi Yue squirmed a bit, only to end up even closer to the man behind her.
The next second, she heard Zhao Xiyan’s voice, mournful like a weeping violin.
“Move again, and your husband might just carry you back to our room…”
“You, this…” Qi Yue bit her lip.
She simply had no way to handle this man.
“Just hold me for a little while,” the man’s husky voice rose again, “No one will come by now, they all know Yueyue has arrived…”
Everyone knows?!
So that’s why they are avoiding coming over here?
Qi Yue clenched her back teeth tightly, unable to relax them for a long time!
Oh well, everyone already knows what’s going on anyway.
Let’s just treat it as practice for soothing a child!
She reached out and touched Zhao Xiyan’s head, saying softly, “Weren’t you in a meeting? How did you come out?”
“How could I not come out when I felt Yueyue had arrived, and then left?”
The man’s hoarse voice sounded so ticklish it made Qi Yue’s heart irresistibly tender.
“You’re always coddling me, you must have had someone watching at the door.”
“No, how could Yueyue not trust me?”
Zhao Xiyan’s voice became even more childlike, with a tinge of petulance.
As an audiophile, Qi Yue couldn’t stand this and hurriedly coaxed him.
“I’m just teasing you, I trust you, why wouldn’t I? I trust you the most in the whole world.”
“That’s more like it.” The man laughed, finally lifting his face from her neck.
“Why has Yueyue come? If you have something, you could have someone call for me.”
Qi Yue smiled mischievously.
“I missed you, is it wrong to come and have a look?”
“Of course not, your husband is delighted.”
The two walked hand in hand to a pavilion nearby and sat down. Only then did Qi Yue mention the urgency of going to Gemidu City as soon as possible.
“I’ve been so bored these past few days. When will you let me leave?!”
Upon hearing this, Zhao Xiyan’s handsome brows and eyes turned cold by half.
“You really must go out? Now you’re carrying a child, I don’t even dare to touch you, and here you are thinking about going such a far distance!”
Qi Yue rubbed her hands together, somewhat embarrassed.
“…What you’re saying, I’m doing this for our matters, am I not worried? Haven’t the reports said the Nanyue Court is up to no good… what if something unexpected happens, what then?”
Talking and talking, Qi Yue herself started to get anxious.
“…Anyway, if something really happens later on, I’ll blame you, yes, I’ll blame you, and I’ll be mad! And about the Nanyue Court, I haven’t had enough fun there. If you don’t let me go and my plans are delayed, I’ll never let you off the hook, believe it or not!?”
Maybe she spoke too hastily and couldn’t catch her breath in time, as she suddenly began to cough.
Seeing her little face turn red with strain, Zhao Xiyan was beside himself with worry.
Forget about staying cold now.
He kept rubbing her back, telling her not to rush.
“Yueyue, don’t be upset anymore, I promise you, whatever you want to do, I’ll agree!”
Upon hearing this, Qi Yue instantly cheered up.
Her anger subsided, her complexion returned to normal, and she looked quite spirited.
“You really mean it, you must not go back on your word!”
“I won’t go back on it,” Zhao Xiyan said, pinching her nose with a look of helpless affection.
“But you’ll have to wait a day or two.”
“Why?” Qi Yue glared warily, “You’re not thinking of finding some excuse not to let…”
Facing the man’s deep, piercing eyes, Qi Yue wisely swallowed the words that were about to slip out.
“…then you must tell me why we have to wait one or two days.”
Zhao Xiyan’s handsome brows furrowed, and he sighed helplessly.
“What other reason could there be? You little fool, don’t you want your husband to accompany you?”
Qi Yue’s eyes lit up, and she instantly became delighted.
“You’re going to accompany me?”
“Of course.” Zhao Xiyan took a deep breath and wrapped his arms around her, hugging her close.
“I’m jealous of Qingzhu, jealous of Zhao Chong; these guys actually spend more time with you than I, as your husband, do! From now on, I want to be with you every day… and with our child, I want to watch him grow up.”
Qi Yue couldn’t help but laugh out loud.
“Right now he’s only as big as a grain of rice, what does he know!”
“I still want to be there,” he insisted.
As he spoke, Zhao Xiyan lowered his head, pressing it against her belly and listening, then smiled and said, “Our son is very happy too!”
“…”
Seeing the man’s crazed antics, Qi Yue could only laugh.
Consequently, the two of them set the date for their trip to Gemidu City for two days later.
During the following days, Zhao Xiyan entered a frenzy of work, dealing with affairs from all quarters.
As Qi Yue was by his side, she naturally learned quite a lot about the important matters of the world.
First and foremost was the situation in Donggao, where the short general leading the Qi Family army had already pushed the front lines to within twenty li of Yanjing.
However, due to the Emperor of Donggao being seriously ill, the matter was temporarily put aside.
Currently, Donggao had only one usable general, Song Qingshan.
If the two armies faced off, Song Qingshan would be caught between two deaths no matter what.
Zhao Xiyan’s intention was that he didn’t want Song Qingshan to die so senselessly.
That’s why he ordered the large army to press the border without attacking, aiming to wait for the internal conflict within the Donggao royal family to wear themselves out first.
After they had slaughtered each other sufficiently, then he planned to annihilate them in one fell swoop.
One reason was his regard for Song Qingshan’s initial intention to protect Qi Yue, having escorted her a thousand li and provided her with a passage permit.
The second reason was that Song Qingshan was a good general; once Donggao’s entire territory was reclaimed, he was needed to station at the Northern Border to defend against foreign tribes.
Apart from the ninth Prince’s fief, Yao City, and the Capital City, all of Beiyuan had fallen, coming under Zhao Xiyan’s control.
In the Capital City, Prime Minister Lin, using the Emperor’s name to command the officials, stubbornly held out.
Most importantly, Zhao Shuangyue and her husband’s family were taken hostage.
Shen Yu’s maternal family, which was also Zhao Xiyan’s extended family, had all been taken care of by Prime Minister Lin.
This made Zhao Xiyan hesitate to take action, having to wait until he was free to deal with it.
As for Yao City, Zhao Xiyan did not seem in a hurry to resolve the issue, even mentioning that he wanted to leave Yao City for last.
Upon learning of this, Qi Yue was quite puzzled.
After much thought, she decided to ask about it.
“My lord, I’ve heard that this ninth Prince is nothing special and not a good person, either. Reports say that he has been bullying and exploiting the people in his domain, taking many good women by force, and all the people hate him. Why don’t you just let someone get rid of him quickly and cleanly?”
Zhao Xiyan fell silent for a moment.
“Consider it repaying a debt!”
