Pregnant Before the Royal Marriage

Chapter 1006: Chapter 1006: Blushing Embarrassments_1 Chapter 1006: Chapter 1006: Blushing Embarrassments_1 Ever since the Prince of Zhao fled after his unsuccessful usurpation, she fell ill, was taken by the Jiang Family and has been laying in the room ever since.

Even the Imperial Physician was called in, but he could not make a diagnosis, and in the end, it was only attributed to heart disease.

Could she feel good, when her own man turned into a criminal of dreadful crimes?

Jiang Ning glared at Li Hongyuan, “What could she possibly know? Do you really think Li You would tell her?”

“They are a married couple, why wouldn’t he share? I never keep any secrets from the Empress.”

“Are you sure?”

Jiang Ning countered, not waiting for him to reply, “I’m not sure about other couples, but Li You will certainly not tell her.”

“How can you be so sure?”

“He has never consummated his marriage with Sixth Sister.”

“Really?” Li Hongyuan heard of this for the first time.

Jiang Yan felt wronged during that time and returned home to cry, it was in the women’s quarters where Jiang Ning first learnt about this.

“Wasn’t it him who sought to marry your sister in the first place?”

“That’s true, but his intentions, even if unspoken, are known to you.”

“He probably did not anticipate that your father and brother, my good in-laws, have eyes only for their legal daughter, with no intention to assist him.”

“Don’t gloat about the benefits you receive.”

“Speaking of which, my Empress has more than half the merit in my ascension to the throne.” Li Hongyuan caressed Jiang Ning’s cheek, “But you have hurt yourself in the process, and it’s not worth it.”

“Even for your world, it is not worth it?”

“For you, your well-being is the most important.”

“Now that you have achieved the throne, it’s easy for you to make sweet-talk.” Jiang Ning murmured, “You were quite cold towards me a few days ago.”

“I feel, even if I overly assert myself like Emperor Father, I won’t win the affection of your mother or Concubine Jin. Instead… keeping a distance from you might make you regard me more highly.”

“Hehe.” Jiang Ning laughed a couple of times.

Beneath her cold exterior is a complex and pretentious heart.

Watching her smile, Li Hongyuan felt a little embarrassed and angry, “I have always confessed my feelings to you, but you always give me the cold shoulder. I’m not a shameless person to constantly throw myself at you…”

“Throw yourself at what?”

“You know it.”

“I don’t.”

“Then I will make you understand.” Saying so, Li Hongyuan turned her around and smacked her bottom a couple of times.

“Have you gone mad!” Jiang Ning blushed and became angry, pushing him away.

Li Hongyuan wrapped his arm around her and instantly the mood between them changed.

He leaned in, kissed her lips, and said softly, “Don’t obsess over Wenren Zong and He Tang, try to like me, will that not work?”

“I have always said that I liked you, but you never believed it.” Jiang Ning murmured.

“Those are just sweet words.”

“Then what should I do for you to believe me?”

“Give me another child.”

“No.” Jiang Ning firmly refused, “I became the Empress for the uncontrolled power, to enjoy wealth and luxury, not to be a tool for perpetuating your Li Royal Family. If you find yourself wanting for children, take another wife. I believe there are many women willing to bear children for you.”

She has never hidden her ambition and intent.

Did she struggle so hard for true love?

Obviously for supreme power!

From now on, she is the most powerful woman in Great Sheng.

In a few years, if the emperor dies, her son becomes the emperor and she would then be the most powerful person in the entire world!
