C178 (1/2)

Flowing water from the east, moving between the shadows of the trees.

When Jin Xiaolou woke up, it was already night.

Opening his eyes, he saw that the room was dim and the candlelight was shining, Gao Lang's face gradually revealed.

Her beautiful eyes were filled with anxiety and love.

Jin Xiaolou sat up straight and said: ”You want to marry Ji Lingyun?”

She was not an ancient woman. She could accept three wives and four concubines. Although in this era it was normal for three wives and four concubines to exist, she only wanted one pair for her entire life.

Love can only be two people's.

Gao Lang said as he smiled, ”Other than you, I won't marry anyone else.”

”Then …” Jin Xiaolou frowned.

Gao Lang moved forward and extended his arms to hug the person on the bed tightly.

”Idiot, today you have moved into a box in the Bi Wu Library, it's for you to wear the wedding dress.” Gao Lang lovingly caressed Jin Xiaolou's hair, ”In three days, the one I want to marry, will be you.”

All of this was originally part of Gao Lang's plan. Back then, when the Queen had threatened him in front of him, Gao Lang had known that if he resisted at first sight, the Empress would definitely bring his marriage to the Emperor.

If the emperor really did point out their marriage, then there would be no room for negotiation.

It would be better to play it by ear and pretend to agree to the empress's marriage. Once the dust settled, there was nothing the empress could do no more, no matter how angry she was.

The heavens had helped Gao Lang, but just at this time, the emperor was sick, and the empress did not have the time to care about this marriage, so the Ji Mansion did not dare to spread the news. Seventh Prince was getting married soon, and there were no movements in the entire capital at all.

A room filled with beautiful scenery.

Jin Xiaolou lowered her head, her chin resting on Gao Lang's shoulder, she was elated.

With a creak, the door opened, and Lv Yun walked in with a box.

He placed the box on the side of the table, and smiled at Jin Xiaolou: ”Innkeeper, you scared us, especially Seventh Prince, I have never seen him in such a rush!”

Jin Xiaolou pouted and looked at Gao Lang affectionately.

Lv Yun continued: ”shopkeeper, you're right. You're already pregnant, yet you're still so unconcerned …”

”Pregnant?” Jin Xiaolou straightened her body and left Gao Lang's embrace.

Lv Yun opened her eyes wide, and nodded: ”En, Seventh Prince. Didn't His Highness tell the shopkeeper? ”

Jin Xiaolou turned to look at Gao Lang again. ”Really?”

However, Gao Lang's expression was not that happy. The corners of his eyes still held gentleness: ”Yes, you have our child.”

Jin Xiaolou was startled, and subconsciously held onto her lower abdomen.

Children...

She and Gao Lang's child.

It was already enough for her to have the Lin'er. She didn't think that the heavens would actually give her another child.

That's good too … It was also good to have Lin'er as a companion.

Furthermore, she had never carried a child before. Lin'er had suddenly popped out from her stomach, allowing her to start from the beginning and become a mother.

Jin Xiaolou raised her head, smiled at Gao Lang, and said softly: ”I think she's a daughter, to be together with Lin'er is a good word.”

Unexpectedly, Gao Lang suddenly became serious, and said to Lv Yun with a tilted face: ”If there's nothing else, let's go down first.”

After Lv Yun left, Gao Lang placed the work table on the bed, and took the bowl that was filled with leg tendons, scooped up a spoonful of soup, blew on it and gave it to Jin Xiaolou.

As Jin Xiaolou was drinking the soup, she opened her mouth and said, ”My wife, there is something that I have never told you.”

”What?” Jin Xiaolou asked.

Gao Lang took a deep breath and said slowly: ”You know that Medicine King Zou Miaomiao has vowed not to treat others ever again after losing a bet 30 years ago.”

”Yes.” Jin Xiaolou nodded, ”I naturally know about this.”

”But the last time you were poisoned, I still got a pill from him.”

”Yes, I've always wanted to ask you.” Jin Xiaolou continued to arrive at the scene, ”How can you forget about this when you are busy? How could that old man break her oath and take out a pill to save you?”

”I promised him that if I had another son, I would send that child to Mount Jinjun and raise him.”

Just as Gao Lang finished speaking, Jin Xiaolou threw her chopsticks on the table in shock: What?!

”Because of an oath, Old mister Zou could never leave the cave. Naturally, he no longer has a wife and children. For this, he is willing to break half of his oath and not come out to save you personally. Instead, he is willing to take out a pill to exchange for our son. ”

Jin Xiaolou held tightly onto her lower abdomen, and seeing Gao Lang's serious expression, she spoke into her ear word by word, ”My wife, in order to save you, I am willing to do anything. ”I have promised old mister Zou that I will definitely do it. If this child in front of me is my son, when he is born, I will send him to Mount Jin.”

Jin Xiaolou blinked her eyes, and a tear instantly rolled down her cheek.

Three days later, Ji Lingyun, dressed in phoenix coronet and ceremonial robes, sat in her pavilion, waiting for the Seventh Prince to come forward and take her wife.
