Chapter 295 The Difficulty of Returning Home
"Silly?"
In the lotus room of Xiangguo Temple, Chu Mingzheng stared at his belly which had not yet bulged. Lu Mingyang couldn't help but smile, and his expression became tense.
"Want it?"
"Chu Mingzheng, what do you mean?"
I was waiting for him with great joy, but he actually doubted me. Lu Mingyang stood up angrily and pointed at the wooden board, "My child, my Lu family can afford to support you. We don't need you. Get out of here."
Chu Mingzheng excitedly hugged his beloved woman into his arms, "Yangyang, thank you for being willing to keep him."
Lu Mingyang was stunned. He put his arm around his shoulders and said angrily, "Am I that cruel?"
"No, no..." Chu Mingzheng was a little excited, "I just don't dare to hope that you are willing to believe in me for the rest of your life."
"Silly boy, who counts on you? It's not like I can't raise a child by myself."
Her voice was sweet, so sweet that it touched his heart. Chu Mingzheng almost choked up, "Mother said that if she doesn't have a grandson this year, she might be doomed. I sent someone to check, and Mother didn't ask for a fortune, but I still feel panic in my heart."
"Fool." Lu Mingyang cried. She had never thought that in this era, he would never complain about her ridiculous request and would take it seriously.
"Have you ever wavered?" she asked.
"I have done that before, but I won't do it again." Chu Mingzheng held Lu Mingyang's face in his hands and promised, "Don't worry, after Jin Yiluo leaves, I will send Qin Miao away."
He didn't allow any danger to exist around her.
Lu Mingyang pulled him to sit down, intending to discuss the issue of the child's father with him. Worried about him getting angry, she began by cautiously testing the waters.
"Your Highness, everyone outside now thinks the child is Song Wei's."
"Don't worry." Chu Mingzheng said, "I've sent someone to pass it on."
"Passing what?"
Lu Mingyang had a vague feeling that something was wrong, and sure enough, Chu Mingzheng spoke up, "Of course, the child is mine."
"Chu Mingzheng, why don't you discuss this with me?"
Lu Mingyang was anxious, and so was Chu Mingzheng. "What are we discussing? Do you really want to cheat on me?"
"What nonsense are you talking about? Don't you know I'm in the palace..." Lu Mingyang said awkwardly, "I offended the Queen Mother."
That day in the palace, she spoke like that to the Queen Mother. Although she was angry, what was more important was that she wanted everyone to think that she had broken down about the marriage to the point of talking nonsense. That way, when Jin Yiluo broke off the engagement in the future, the Emperor would not suspect Chu Mingzheng.
When he was scolding her, she thought she would not go back to the palace with him, so she scolded him. But now, what should she do when Chu Mingzheng fell out with the Queen Mother because of her?
"You haven't offended enough people!" Chu Mingzheng laughed.
"This time is different." Lu Mingyang wanted to cry: "All the important concubines in the harem are here, and I scolded them harshly. If you take me back, what will the Queen Mother think of you?"
Chu Mingzheng touched her belly and asked, "This is our first child. If his identity is in doubt, how will he live his life with integrity? I will never let anyone doubt his identity."
Lu Mingyang thought about it and felt that what he said made sense. It seemed that after having a child, parents would subconsciously consider the child first, and everything else would take a back seat.
"Then tell the Queen Mother that you took me back because of the child, and you won't give me a title."
"Lu Mingyang!" Chu Mingzheng warned sternly, "This child is my eldest son. This matter is non-negotiable."
Lu Mingyang was speechless: "Chu Mingzheng, could you please not be so impulsive? Are you going to let our whole family go to hell with you?"
Chu Mingzheng stopped talking.
Lu Mingyang looked distressed: "That's not what I meant. I believe in you, I always have. But when we do things, we always have to be fully prepared."
"I can't let you down, I can't." If that were the case, how could he have the right to ask her to come back to him? He would never forgive himself in his life.
"I'm not wronged!"
But he couldn't hear her at all.
"There's always a way," Chu Mingzheng's hands trembled slightly on his knees. "Let me think about it, let me think about it."
"Khan, Khan, our girl has gone to bed, you can't come in." Ruying's voice came from afar, followed by Jin Yiluo's hurried footsteps.
