inside the bundle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xique and Caiju had pasted it very carefully, much better than what Xingxing could do by herself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xingxing noticed that many of the parts she had glued were torn off and reattached, seemingly out of disdain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xingxing, \"....\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Jin was more concerned about Lady Chi’s illness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She stepped into the room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Inside, Lady Chi was leaning against a large pillow, her face covered with a veil, obscuring her appearance, but her weakness was palpable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Su Jin, Lady Chi propped herself up on the bed, but lacked the strength to do so completely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Jin quickly walked over and sat by the bedside, \"If you’re unwell, don’t move around.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lady Chi managed a faint smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Jin took her hand and began to feel her pulse.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xingxing and several maids stood by and watched.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Su Jin’s deeply furrowed brows, the hearts of the maids leaped into their throats.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The look on the Heir’s wife indicated that Lady Chi’s illness was severe.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With her exceptional medical skills, for her to show such expression meant Lady Chi’s condition was indeed difficult to treat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Could it be beyond cure?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xique felt a pang in her chest, tears welling up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Jin adjusted slightly and took Lady Chi’s pulse again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This time, the frown deepened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xingxing’s heart raced nervously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lady Chi was a good person.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She didn’t want Lady Chi to die.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even Lady Chi was startled, gazing at Su Jin, using her eyes to ask: Am I... very ill?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Jin looked at her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lady Chi’s eyes were beautiful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, those beautiful eyes were filled with fear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No one is unafraid of death.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Especially Lady Chi, who had survived despite scars and a ruined appearance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She must have cherished people and matters in her heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Jin wanted to see through Lady Chi’s heart through her eyes, but she couldn’t discern anything.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She furrowed her brows and said, \"It’s a pregnancy pulse.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Jin’s voice was a bit ethereal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The room fell silent for a moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then it erupted with joy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xique and Caiju were so delighted they danced with glee.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It’s a pregnancy pulse, Madam is pregnant!\" Lu Qiao exclaimed excitedly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Jin was a bit bewildered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lady Chi felt her abdomen through the quilt, tears glistening in her eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xingxing looked at Xique, \"Is Lady Chi carrying the Prince’s child?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If not the Prince’s, then whose else?\" Xique replied blankly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xingxing, \"....\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Jin, \"....\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But doesn’t the Prince never visit Qingqiu Garden?\" Xingxing asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After saying that, Xingxing felt her words weren’t precise enough.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Prince didn’t openly come.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the Prince had sneaked in.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He even left his purse on a tree in Qingqiu Garden.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She had climbed up to get it and returned it to the Prince.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Prince must have secretly watched Lady Chi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xique remembered she hadn’t told Xingxing about the Prince spending the night in Qingqiu Garden.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She intended to, but the day the Emperor rewarded the Heir’s wife with lychees, she was interrupted midway when Xingxing ran off.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although she’d met Xingxing later, she forgot to mention it because the Prince hadn’t returned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If she weren’t familiar with Xingxing, she might’ve fought with her over her implied suspicion that Lady Chi was unfaithful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xique hastily explained, \"That day, Lady Chi was playing the zither in the pavilion, and the Prince came in upon hearing the music, later gifting her an ancient zither.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Jin suddenly understood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She thought it strange for the Prince, who rarely visited Qingqiu Garden, to suddenly gift Lady Chi a zither.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So that’s why.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is my Madam alright?\" Xique asked worriedly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No major issues, just some disturbance to the fetus,\" Su Jin replied.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I’ll have Xingxing bring some fetus-preserving medicine later.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Caiju added, \"Should we tell the Prince this good news?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Heir’s wife’s medical skills had been advised to be kept secret.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Caiju didn’t dare report it carelessly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xingxing looked at her, \"This is a happy event, of course we should report it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lady Chi shook her head at Caiju, signaling not to speak.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xique said, \"I heard from the kitchen mama that in the first three months of pregnancy, it’s unstable and better not to announce it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No one comes to Qingqiu Garden anyway; we can wait until Madam’s condition stabilizes.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Jin looked at Lady Chi, \"Still can’t speak?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lady Chi didn’t answer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xique said, \"Madam can say a word or two now, but they’re not clear, and she never talks in front of others.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not even to Su Jin or Xique and the others, Lady Chi remained silent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only alone would she try practicing speech.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It’s good she can speak,\" Su Jin said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"She’ll be alright after some time.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Jin was relieved that Lady Chi’s toxins were cleared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Otherwise, even if pregnant, she couldn’t have kept the child.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lady Chi’s disturbance lasted two days and shouldn’t be delayed further; Su Jin needed to go back to prepare medicine, so she stood up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the study.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xie Jingchen was still reading.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Hidden Guard jumped in through the window.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xie Jingchen looked at him, \"Is Lady Chi very ill?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Lady Chi is pregnant with the Prince’s child,\" the Hidden Guard replied.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xie Jingchen, \"....\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xie Jingchen was still stunned by the revelation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sound of Su Jin’s footsteps approached.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Hidden Guard quickly disappeared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Jin pushed the door open and entered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xie Jingchen picked up the book from the table, expecting Su Jin to discuss Lady Chi’s pregnancy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Su Jin only glanced at him before heading to the backyard through the side door.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The matter of Lady Chi’s pregnancy could be discussed at any time; getting the medicine was priority.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xie Jingchen’s brows were knitted tightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a moment of silence, he put down the book and got up to leave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xie Jingchen went to the front yard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the study, the Prince was writing a memorial.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xie Jingchen pushed open the door and entered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Prince glanced at him, \"What brings you here?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xie Jingchen looked at the Prince with a complicated expression.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lady Chi’s facial condition, which Su Jin described in detail, was frightening even with some recovery.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His father...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What’s the matter that you can’t speak about?\" the Prince grumbled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Lady Chi had a disturbance to her pregnancy,\" Xie Jingchen responded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"....\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Prince had just dipped his brush in ink to sign his name.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing Xie Jingchen’s words, his hand paused, and ink dripped from the tip of the brush.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The document he had just written was ruined.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Prince’s brow furrowed tightly, \"Pregnant?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Father is so surprised; could the child not be yours?\" Xie Jingchen queried.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Prince’s tightly furrowed brow relaxed slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Prince Zhenbei Mansion was heavily guarded, and apart from the likes of Prince NanAn who regularly scaled the walls, it was nearly impossible for anyone else to get in.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lady Chi’s child was undoubtedly his.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He simply hadn’t expected that from just one encounter, she’d become pregnant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was careless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I know now; you may leave,\" the Prince said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xie Jingchen extended his hand towards the Prince, \"Shouldn’t you return my item, Father?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What item?\" the Prince frowned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The Jade Pendant,\" Xie Jingchen said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Prince looked at him, and Xie Jingchen explained, \"This time, on our way back to the Capital, someone intercepted me, claiming to have sent a Jade Pendant to the Prince Mansion for me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That Jade Pendant is related to my birth, and I asked the Hidden Guard, who said you took it, Father.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Aren’t you willing to tell me who my mother is, or allow me to investigate?\" Xie Jingchen asked.\u003C\u002Fp>",1293,"2026-06-06T02:20:04.016Z",1,"novelbin.me","de3b1f055aee78e515085399e40910c424712c2c3027cd4c1ff980b3adc3c0b3","after-transmigration-i-snag-a-stunning-bigwig-as-chapter-532","after-transmigration-i-snag-a-stunning-bigwig-as-chapter-530",1103,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fafter-transmigration-i-snag-a-stunning-bigwig-as-cover.jpg"]
