The first snowfall of the year had finally arrived and the mountains were capped with silvery white. Except for the occasional sound of the patrolling soldiers, the whole world was so quiet that only the sound of the rustling snow remained.
The light on the amassed snow reflected brightly into the tent. Waking up abruptly and defying against the blinding white light to look upon his side that was empty without the slightest bit of temperature, Chu Jinglan rolled over instantly to get up and felt bursts of stirring coldness in his chest, as if stabbed by the condensed icicle that was under the eaves.
Was it possible that yesterday was another of his hallucinations?
Despite the persistent coughing, he took no heed to drape his clothes but got out of bed and strode out the tent. The shadow guards guarding outside were all taken aback. Before they were able to say anything but glancing at each other, Chu Jinglan had already trampled on the blanket of snow looking frantically around, as if looking for something.
A graceful figure approached quietly from the rear side and seeing his thin clothes with snow-mud covering his legs, she couldnt help but call out softly, Wangye?
Stiffened, Chu Jinglan turned his head abruptly. After seeing that delicate face clearly, the coldness instantly melted from his eyes. He immediately rushed over to hug her in two or three steps with elaborate movement that caused all passing-by soldiers to halt and glance over this side with astonishment. Aware of the surroundings abnormal silence, Ye Huaiyang pushed him gently.
Wangye a lot of people are watching
He didnt make a sound nor did he let her go but just stood in the snow, as if wanting to hold her till the end of time.
Knowing that he had yet to calm down from the nightmare of loss, Ye Huaiyang did not force him but acutely changed the subject, I woke up early today and went to the military chef to see whats there to eat. Qingfeng told me that you have a bad cough recently, so I made some easily swallow porridge and a crock of chuanpei snow pear soup for you to drink after breakfast.
Hearing this, Chu Jinglan immediately drew back to inspect her whole person from top to bottom then cupping her belly and asked, What are you doing in that chaotic and messy place? Did you get burned or bumped by anyone?
Ye Huaiyang arched her eyebrows then joked hearing his worries and irate, Once they saw me, it was like seeing a ghost that they cant even run away in time. How would anyone dare to bump me?
No talking nonsense! The word ghost jabbed Chu Jinglans heart that his complexion spontaneously changed slightly.
Okay, okay, I was wrong. Ye Huaiyang astutely acted pragmatically then began to act coquettishly, Its so cold outside. Shall we go inside to eat? Although its still in the early trimester now, its really somewhat tiring standing for a long time
Chu Jinglan seemed to feel overwhelmed seeing her supporting her waist that he hurriedly gathered her to enter the tent while Yueya trailed behind with a tray. It was until the curtain was put down and securely covered that the scene inside was no longer visible did the onlooker-soldiers begin to move again except their expressions were utterly flabbergasted.
Have they ever seen such a Wangye in the six years in Northern Land? Who actually is that person who can make Wangye doted on her to the marrow of his bones?
These questions quietly spread amongst the troop while the two of them were oblivious as they enjoyed a rare meal together in the small tent.
How is it? Is it delicious?
It was Ye Huaiyangs first time cooking and she was eager to know if it was to Chu Jinglans liking. He nodded and gave an affirmative answer but a while later, he raised a question, You didnt know how to cook before. How come you suddenly cook so well?
I have been idle these few months, so I looked through some cookbooks. Ye Huaiyang mentioned it casually but Yueya interjected suddenly.
Wangye, Young Miss almost miscarriage when she fell off Zhuolutai that she had to be bedridden for three full months and could only leave the bed several days ago. These books were used to pass the time and had been browsed over numerous times when she was in good spirits.
Blabbermouth! Ye Huaiyang glared at her. When she looked back, Chu Jinglans complexion had changed.
Why didnt you tell me about such a serious matter? He held her body upright with hidden concern lurking in his eyes, Where else do you feel unwell? Ill have Lu Heng come to take a look at you.
Im fine. Just sleepy and easily tired than usual but these are all normal pregnancy symptoms, so dont worry.
With that said, how could Chu Jinglan not worry? He looked down at her slightly bulging belly with eyes getting darker and darker then couldnt help but wrap his arms around her while his breathing sprayed besides her ear and appeared particularly serious.
She had endured alone during the most difficult time and her pregnancy was halfway when she returned to his side. She would only report the good news and hold back the unpleasant ones. While he was immersing in the joy of losing and regaining, he actually forgot how much torment she had suffered at that time, getting tortured, jumping off the cliff, preventing a miscarriage and also those that he hadnt have time to ask, the thought of which made him unable to swallow another bite of food.
Its all this Husbands fault for not being able to protect you well.
Covering his lips, Ye Huaiyangs eyes were gleaming like the clear wave that fused into his pitch-dark eyes and dispersed the gloominess.
Who would reckon this kind of incident to happen so unexpectedly. You have protected me very well that even the baby knows that you are the sturdiest barrier in front of us. You see he moved so cheerfully yesterday, isnt it because he knows that he has nothing to fear on earth once he is back to Daddys side?
Chu Jinglan smoothened then knitted his eyebrows again and unbothered to reproach himself anymore as he asked urgently, Do you feel unwell when he moves?
Ye Huaiyang smiled gently, No, hes still little and his strength is very weak.
The father-to-be silently exhaled then turned to glance at the food on the table and exhorted sternly, Dont worry about these trivial things in the future and obediently improve your health, understand?
Seeing you, Im all well. Ye Huaiyang reached out to hook her hand around his neck then delivered a sweet quick kiss, King Uncle, I miss you so much.
Crushing her into his arms, Chu Jinglan sighed faintly, Husband misses you too.
He didnt know how he went through this period of time. Muddle-headed with disastrous longings which he only braced though so far by relying on those brief hallucinations. If the passings of the late Emperor and Imperial Consort Chen took away his emotions then Ye Huaiyangs death simply emptied out his whole person that his body deteriorated day by day, like a walking corpse that was losing whatever sensation.
The word affection is only perceived to smolder the heart and corrode the bones.
Chu Jinglan felt an unprecedented satisfaction while caressing her warm soft body but there were still matters at hand to deal with, so he had to release her and said softly, I still have to go to the troop tent to discuss matters with your Elder Brother and the others. You go back to take another nap and I will come back to eat with you at noon.
Ye Huaiyang nodded obediently.
The wind and snow were raging outside the tent while the charcoal flames were roaring inside the tent. Lying in bed with his smell, Ye Huaiyang slept particularly well without the least care of being in the frontline of the war because she knew she no longer needed to fight alone as Chu Jinglan would ward off all the storms for her.
Not knowing how long she slept when there was some sudden ruckus outside. Since she has been a light sleeper after pregnancy, she was woken up at once and thought it was Chu Jinglan coming back but after hearing distinctly the shrill voice of a female, her expression turned cold immediately.
I did not go look for you yet you scrambled and delivered yourself to the door. Thats fine, I will first settle the score with you today!
Propping her arms to sit up, she called out loudly, Ci Yuan, let her in.
As soon as her voice faltered, a light yellow figure rushed in suddenly yet the predicament of entangling with the guards just now had yet to dissipate. Seizure of terror appeared at once the moment she saw Ye Huaiyang that she retreated several steps and almost fell to the ground.
Demon you are a demon!
Ye Huaiyang got up and walked to the table to pour herself a cup of warm water, then spoke after swallowing it intermediately, After not seeing for several months, how could Miss Meng believe in these supernatural things?
Meng Chen had retreated to the tents periphery due to her movement. Her face was ghostly-like pale and the hand that was pointing at her kept shaking, How could you still be alive after jumping off such a high place? You must be a demon! Ill rip your skin off. Dont ever think you can hoodwink Wangye again!
As she said that, unknowing where she got the courage to stomp her feet and lunge forward. Yueya reacted very quickly. Stretching her arms out to stop her, her feet quickly swept across when only a thud sound was heard when Meng Chen landed face down on the ground and almost broke the bridge of her nose.
This was a very good move taught by Ci Yuan.
Yueya snorted and dragged her a little further away to keep her at a relatively safe distance.
Not only am I still alive but the child in my womb is safe and sound too. Meng Chen, are you very disappointed?
Ye Huaiyang deliberately stuck her belly out so that she could see the rounded arc. Just as expected, Meng Chen, who was still squealing in pain a second ago, was now completely stunned. She stared dazedly at her belly as if she had seen a ghost.
What do you think Wangye would do to you if he knew that you were responsible for all these and almost killed his child?
The chilling tone instantly made Meng Chen shiver. She looked up at Ye Huaiyang, only to see that pair of phoenix eyes sparkled with glistening frosty light which all the more set forth the icy snowy face, just like a terrifying jade-faced Rakshasa.
I will get back all the vengeance for Lord Yue, the entire direct descendant of the Xie family, as well as the eighteen Tianqi Houses guards from you. Meng Chen, your good days in this life will end here. Supporting her waist, Ye Huaiyang approached slowly with a sneer on her lips, But dont worry. I wont tell Wangye about this. After all, the Meng family is loyal and courageously righteous. Its pointless for Wangye to grudge them because of your rat shit. So from now on, only I, Ye Huaiyang, will make your life better dead than alive. Youve better remember that.
Meng Chen finally accepted the fact that Ye Huaiyang is really alive at this moment and she has even come back to take revenge on her. Suppressing her inner fear, she raised her lower jaw and spoke proudly, If you dare to touch me, you will be the enemy of the entire Meng family!
Ye Huaiyang curled up her lips and sneered, Just see if I dare to touch you.
Meng Chen choked but spoke again, You have no proof in your hand. I still gain the upper hand even if confronted openly. Cousin will not believe you.
Its really a black spot of my life being plotted against by someone so stupid like you Rubbing her forehead, Ye Huaiyang smiled even more indifferently and full of disdain, You havent even noticed after following the troop for three months? Wangye is so anxious to stage an armed rebellion not because he wants to seize the throne but to avenge me. He loves me to the point that he is so distressed with my sufferings, so how can he doubt what I say? You should be glad that I am not a narrow-minded person like you, otherwise the entire Meng family will be buried alive with you!
Impossible! Cousin is just using your death to build momentum and his aim is to seize the throne! Meng Chen retorted sharply.
Then why did he announce my return from tribulation to the three armed services? Wouldnt it be better to cover it up?
Thats because he wants to rope Ye Huaili in, lest the Guanzhong army turn against him!
Ye Huiayang curbed her smile as soon as she finished the sentence that Meng Chen thought she had hit home and was about to feel pleased when Ye Huaiyang cast a pitiful look at her.
Ive always thought that Wangye doesnt like you because of your hypocrisy but I only realized today that both of you are simply from two worlds. Wangye handles matters openly and forthrightly. How can an ingrate person like you be able to speculate?
Meng Chens eyes almost spouted fire at these words. The sharp nails were embedded deep in her palms, as if she would attack Ye Huaiyang in the next moment. Who would have thought that she waved her hand then turned swiftly to recline back in bed.
Im tired. Throw her out.
Two people grabbed Meng Chens arms firmly and carried her out like a chicken.
It was close to noon when Chu Jinglan returned shortly after Meng Chen was driven away. As it was snowing heavily, his cloak was covered with crystal-clear hexagonal snowflakes. As soon as he entered the tent, he took it off and handed it to Yueya. He then walked over to the heating stove intending to warm his body up before approaching Ye Huaiyang, but who knew she would move over silently to hug his waist and refused to let go.
Why are you more clingy after waking up? Chu Jinglan gathered her in his arms with a low laugh.
He hadnt relaxed since coming back for a day and a night but now, he was finally smiling. Ye Huaiyang was feeling happy and pestered him even more to ask boldly, Doesnt King Uncle like me like this?
Yes. Chu Jinglan leaned over slightly and dropped a hot kiss on the corner of her forehead, Husband likes however you are.
And Ye Huaiyang smiled in satisfaction.
