Married To The Cruel Crown Prince Chapter 576 - Love, Happiness And Warmth

Chapter 576 - Love, Happiness And Warmth

Court Lady Xu reached the Imperial Palace with Bai Yaling. They reached outside the chamber when a maidservant informed them about the pregnancy of the Crown Princess.

Court Lady Xu was extremely happy to hear the news. She joined her hands and thanked the Jade Emperor and Lord Buddha for listening to her prayers. Bai Yaling was also happy to hear the news.

"Court Lady Xu, we shall visit the chamber of the Crown Princess. We shall congratulate her for this," Bai Yaling said humbly.

"Yes, Princess Bai," Court Lady Xu replied. They both went towards Zhenzhu Residence and heard the voice of the Empress from inside.

"Court Lady Xu, the Empress has refused the entry for some time," a maidservant informed her. She nodded her head when Bai Yaling asked her if she could go in.

The maidservant did not know about that so replied, "I think that Princess Bai can go in." Bai Yaling smiled and walked in.

Stepping in, Bai Yaling greeted the Empress first and then the Crown Princess, who was seated on the bed while the Empress stopped instructing Court Lady Ki.

"Why is Princess Bai here?" Deng Hui asked.

"Your Majesty, I came to congratulate the Crown Princess," replied Bai Yaling and looked at Ying Lili. She wished her for this great news when Ying Lili asked her to sit beside her.

"Princess Bai shall return to her chamber. Since she has lost her husband, the negative energy around her can affect the Royal Heir," Deng Hui proclaimed.

Ying Lili gazed at the Empress and did not like her remark. Bai Yaling, on the other hand, felt low. She apologized for acting recklessly. She took her leave and walked out of the chamber.

"The Imperial Mother should not believe in such superst.i.tion. She is still in her low phase, and telling such things to her might affect her mentally. It is my humble request to Her Majesty not to restrict Princess Bai from coming to me," Ying Lili requested. Sheng Li came at that time and heard Ying Lili was making a request to the Empress.

He ordered the maidservants to put the trays on the table.

"What happened? Why are you requesting the Empress?" Sheng Li asked her and stood near her.

"Nothing, Crown Prince. Court Lady Ki, take special care of the Crown Princess. I shall take my leave," a.s.serted Deng Hui.

"I do not allow Court Lady Ki in the service of the Crown Princess," Sheng Li stated and frowned. "I do not need to explain the reason--"

"Court Lady Ki will serve me, Crown Prince," Ying Lili expressed her desire and glanced at Sheng Li, who looked at her in bewilderment. He did not want this. He had no trust left in Deng Hui after, he found out about her real face.

"I want the good of the Crown Princess. Lady Ki even helped us when we all got pregnant. She has experience in this. The first few months are crucial for the Crown Princess. I am truly happy with the news of the Crown Princess pregnancy," Deng Hui explained to Sheng Li.

"Your Majesty, forgive the Crown Prince. He does not understand all these things," Ying Lili said and lowered her head.

"If the Crown Princess wants this, then I have no problem," Sheng Li said and averted her gaze from the Empress, who was glad to hear that.

She could understand the frustration and agony of the Crown Prince towards her. She had left that path and wanted the best for the Crown Princess during this period. But her past mistakes had made her skeptical in the eyes of Sheng Li.

Deng Hui took her leave from the chamber. "Set the lunch table for the Crown Prince on the bed," Sheng Li told the maidservants, who were near the table. Court Lady Ki went towards the table and checked the food.

Sheng Li looked at Ying Lili, who pa.s.sed him a smile. He smiled back and caressed her head. Ying Lili brought her hand near her belly and smiled. She had heard that the feeling of motherhood was the most precious in the world. She felt it today when her pregnancy was confirmed by the Royal Physician.

A maidservant put the bed table on the mattress and placed the dishes over it. She stood straight with a lowered head and told the Crown Prince that the table was set.

"Leave," Sheng Li commanded all of them, who left the chamber.

He sat beside Ying Lili, who gazed into her eyes. "Sheng Li, isn't this great?" She asked him, who nodded his head. He cupped her face between his palms.

"Why did you let the person of the Empress serve you? I do not trust her," Sheng Li said with a worried expression.

"Sheng Li, she has repented on her mistakes. I have seen her many times coming to your chamber. But she did not climb those stairs because of the fear of what would you say. It is such a great occasion, so you shall forgive her," Ying Lili suggested to him.

"You also want love and fraternity among the Royal Family members. Also, the Emperor had not allowed her to appoint a special for me if he had no trust in her," Ying Lili made him understand.

"Father does not know about her true face," Sheng Li opined.

"The Emperor knows everything, Sheng Li. Just because he is sick, it does not mean that he does not know about Empress Hui. Also, Court Lady Ki had served your mother as well. Do you think she will do something wrong with me?" Ying Lili questioned him.

"Who knows she also--"

Ying Lili put her index finger on his lips, thus stopping him from speaking.

"It is not possible. Court Lady Ki took good care of your mother. Eunuch Xing-Fu told me all this. Don't doubt everyone around you. It is the time of happiness. I do not want our child to go with any kind of negativity. I want our child to feel love, happiness, and warmth during these nine months."

Sheng Li nodded his head and kissed the top of her head. He put his hands down and looked at the table. He picked the chopstick and checked every dish once again, to make sure nothing was mixed in that. He then allowed her to eat.. They both sat around the table on the mattress and started to eat.
