Married To The Cruel Crown Prince Chapter 580 - Feeding

Chapter 580 - Feeding

Jian Guozhi and Rong Zemin saw the Crown Prince and the Fourth Prince. They both decided to go to them and walked to the Eastern Pavilion.
"Brother Nianzu, did you have a good sleep?" Rong Zemin asked.
"Yes, Brother Zemin," Nianzu replied with a tiny smile on his lips. Both Jian Guozhi and Rong Zemin sat on the other round stools around the table. "I heard about the Second Brother. I did not expect that he would not be able to let go of his jealousy and hatred," Nianzu said.
"What about Consort Ju and Princess Bai? How are they?" He asked.
"It will take time for them to recover from Yongzheng's loss. Princess Bai tried to take her life yesterday evening. Luckily, General Wang saved her," Jian Guozhi told him.
"She must be going through a tough phase. It has only been over a month since their marriage. Brother Yongzheng should have thought about his wife before doing all this," Nianzu said in a fit of rage.
"Prince Yongzheng used to abuse his wife," asserted Jian Guozhi. "Do you expect him to think about his wife?" He questioned him.
"It means the Second Brother has lost his entire conscience. Now, what will happen to Princess Bai Yaling? Consort Ju might tell her to follow the path of a virtuous widow and perform widow chastity," Nianzu concluded.
"She already said that today, in the greetings hall," Rong Zemin replied. "The Crown Princess raised the issue regarding that. So, the Emperor had granted some time to Princess Bai to come out of that loss," He proclaimed.
"Consort Ju might have gotten angry at the Crown Princess. Also, she might try to avenge her son's death. We all know how Consort Ju used to be when we were young. Half of the influence that Prince Yongzheng got was from her!" Nianzu remarked.
Jian Guozhi corrected him and said, "It was me, who taught him those things. It is my mistake too for not being able to perform the duty of the Elder Brother well." He looked at Sheng Li, who was silent throughout these conversations. Although earlier Sheng Li had promised him that he forgot the enmity between them, this incident had again triggered him. Getting back his trust was tough.
"Why are you all conversing without me? It is wrong that you forgot to involve your Sixth Brother in this conversation," Lei Wanxi said, bringing the attention of four Princes towards him. He closed the fan in his hand and came towards them.
"You all forgave Brother Nianzu so soon. He left us without having a word with us," Lei Wanxi complained and narrowly gazed at the Fourth Prince, who started to smile.
Nianzu went to him and put his arm around his shoulder. "Forgive me," he said.
"I will not," Lei Wanxi said and crossed his arms.
"Brother Nianzu, there is another piece of good news. Brother Wanxi and Princess Zhu Lin will marry soon," Rong Zemin stated. Nianzu was astonished and at the same time, was delighted to hear that.
"So, now did you understand the meaning of love?" Nianzu asked him.
"Of course. I am not a kid anymore," Lei Wanxi replied.
"They both created chaos in the Palace. Both of them fought like a cat and mouse," asserted Sheng Li and chuckled. "They even pulled each other's hair," Sheng Li told some of the incidents between Lei Wanxi and Zhu Lin.
Rong Zemin started to laugh. "Princess even threw a shoe at him. Brother Wanxi never fought with anyone but with Princess Zhu Lin, he was always ready to fight," He told Nianzu, who smiled upon hearing that.
"She is quite strong though and brave too. She, without thinking about her life, saved General Wang. Brother Yongzheng stabbed the arrow inside her belly. How could he do that? What if she had lost her life? He did not think for a second about this before harming her," Lei Wanxi turned sad and his eyes turned misty. "I was scared the night when the Royal Physician said that she had low chances to survive," he said in a low voice.
"Warriors do not die easily. Keep this in mind," Sheng Li gave him a piece of advice. "Also, I will not be able to train you. I need to be with Lili most of the time. Xiao Zhan will help you train," Sheng Li informed Lei Wanxi.
"Why do you want to train now?" Nianzu asked him.
"Because Zhu Lin can never carry her sword. I lied to her that she could after a year. The Royal Physician said that heavy work might cause internal bleeding in her navel region, which can be fatal for her. If I learn all that, then she will not feel that bad. I want to become strong for her… physically," Lei Wanxi reasoned.
"Hmm. That's great," Nianzu said and patted his shoulder. He took him towards the table and made him sit on the stool.
"When will you two marry?" Nianzu asked him.
"Our Fathers will decide with the Royal Astrologer. I think we will get married within a month," replied Lei Wanxi.
"That's great," Nianzu said.
"I shall leave. Brothers shall continue to chat," Sheng Li stood up and walked away.
"Brother Sheng has now a greater responsibility in front of him," Jian Guozhi stated and looked at his three brothers.
Sheng Li returned to Zhenzhu Residence. Chuntao stood up upon seeing him and bowed. "You returned early!" Ying Lili said and told Chuntao that she should sit.
"I shall go back. The Crown Princess shall take rest. Thank you for guiding me," Chuntao said and bowed before her.
"Xing-Fu, escort Princess Chuntao to her chamber," Sheng Li ordered. Chuntao left with Xing-Fu while closing the doors behind him.
"Court Lady Ki, did the Crown Princess drink something?" Sheng Li asked her.
"Yes, Your Highness. I have given her the soup which is good for her at this time," replied Court Lady Ki.
"Okay. Next time, wait for me before feeding such things to the Crown Princess," Sheng Li commanded her.. Ying Lili found out how much Sheng Li was cautious regarding her pregnancy.
