Chapter 327 Seeing Your True Colors
"child?"
Jiang Li was shocked. Wu Weiwei was pregnant?
"Are you telling the truth?"
Despite the intense pain in her abdomen, Wu Weiwei nodded.
"Yes, I'm pregnant, but for some reason, I'm going to lose the baby... Please find a place to stop and get me a doctor!"
Looking at Wu Weiwei's almost bloodless face, Jiang Li looked up at Goldman Sachs in front of him.
"Please, I just want to save him!"
Seeing Jiang Li hesitate, Wu Weiwei spoke up again to ask for his help.
Jiang Li looked at her, and finally said to everyone, "Let's rest for half an hour at the stone pavilion ahead!"
Upon hearing Jiang Li's request, Goldman Sachs turned to look at him.
"Jiang Li, you were walking perfectly fine, why did you stop?"
Although Lu Hanting hasn't discovered them yet, he was the one who asked to leave just now, so why is he doing this again?
"Mrs. Wu isn't feeling well, let's rest for a while before we leave..."
Jiang Li did not tell him the reason, but He Yuyan in the sedan chair understood his meaning.
"Goldman Sachs, since Manager Jiang wants you to rest, then everyone should listen to him and take a break!"
After all, we've been traveling non-stop for an hour, and the soldiers behind us won't be able to catch up anytime soon..."
He Yuyan lifted the carriage curtain and slowly stepped down.
Goldman Sachs looked at her and thought about the pile of bottles and jars she had just been handling. Could there be something else going on with her?
"Why are you all looking at me? I wasn't the one who was just complaining of feeling unwell!"
Seeing everyone looking at her, He Yuyan adjusted the veil on her face and said sarcastically, "The person you kidnapped is about to die, why don't you go and check on her!"
Hearing He Yuyan's words, Jiang Li took a step and entered the horse stable.
Inside the carriage, Wu Weiwei was curled up, seemingly enduring immense pain.
"Jiang, Jiang Li..."
Jiang Li drew his sword, and just when Wu Weiwei thought he was going to kill her, she saw him use the sword to lift a low cabinet under the carriage.
Suddenly, a centipede-like insect with countless tiny legs sprang up and was about to grab Wu Weiwei.
At this critical moment, Jiang Li threw the sword in his hand upwards, and there was a "whoosh" sound.
The sword tip pierced its head precisely.
Upon seeing this, Wu Weiwei's tense body suddenly relaxed.
"Ow..."
Then, the strange insect let out its final, mournful cry before it died.
"What is this?"
Wu Weiwei touched her abdomen, seemingly feeling a little better.
"It's nothing but a bedbug!"
Jiang Li said with disgust.
"Just bedbugs?"
Wu Weiwei didn't believe it.
"It's a poisonous insect called 'abortion insect' raised by the local people of Nanzhao. If you stay within one meter of it for an hour, the fetus in your womb is very likely to slip out..."
"This……"
Wu Weiwei touched her lower abdomen.
The hour that Jiang Li mentioned, wasn't it from the time she got into the carriage?
Wu Weiwei looked at Jiang Li.
"Is there any hope for the baby in my womb?"
Wu Weiwei's voice trembled as she asked this question.
Jiang Li drew his sword, crushing the poisonous insects into dust along with it.
"I don't know, after all, I'm not a doctor!"
He Yuyan watched Jiang Li get off Wu Weiwei's carriage with great interest.
"Jiang Li, how is she?"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Li glanced at her.
"Miss He, this is the last time I'm warning you!"
Before you return to Chuzhou, I urge you to behave yourself, or don't blame me for being impolite then!
Although Wu Weiwei's pregnancy surprised him, He Yuyan already knew about it and had secretly taken action against her.
If he hadn't discovered it in time and blown the silkworm's head off, Wu Weiwei would probably be dead along with her unborn child by now!
"Hmph! What does this have to do with me? You know we're almost at the border of Nanzhao. Maybe she did something to provoke us..."
So what if I did it?
But what about Jiang Li?
Kill himself to avenge Wu Weiwei?
Ah……
He Yuyan looked at the people here, who were almost completely obedient to her because of Shen Bazhi.
Just look at all those bottles and jars in his hand, all collected by Xue Ping for him, so who does he think he is?
If it weren't for the fact that I haven't returned to Chulong Prefecture yet, killing Jiang Li would be as simple as giving a single word.
Seeing the disdain in He Yuyan's eyes.
Jiang Li raised an eyebrow.
She probably overestimated her importance in Shen Ba's heart.
Because of Jiang Li's words, the group stopped to rest.
Because of her inner turmoil, Wu Weiwei got off the carriage despite feeling unwell.
Seeing her frail appearance, He Yuyan smiled and walked over.
"Wu Weiwei, whose child are you carrying?"
Whose child do you want?
With a heart as venomous as He Yuyan's, do you think she would let me go after I revealed who the child's father is?
Ha ha!
That's just wishful thinking!
"It must be the Crown Prince!"
Wu Weiwei glanced at her sideways but did not answer.
"Hmph! So what if you're pregnant with the Crown Prince's child? Do you think he'll marry you and make you his Crown Princess?"
Wu Weiwei looked at her calmly.
"He Yuyan, isn't it you who's been scheming to become the heir apparent's wife?"
Since the Crown Prince brought her back from Tongzhou, He Yuyan has acted as if she doesn't compete or fight, but she has been trying to take what's hers away from her, both openly and secretly.
Was it jealousy, or was she truly unwilling to remain merely a concubine of the crown prince?
Although Wu Weiwei didn't know whether He Yuyan would eventually become the Crown Prince's wife, her actions had brought her great suffering.
Especially now that she has long since given up the desire to become the Crown Prince's wife, she still refuses to let herself go.
In order to get revenge on her, Shen Bazhi not only kidnapped her, but now he also wants to kill the baby in her womb.
Jiang Li frowned as he looked at the two people in the pavilion.
Gao Sheng said to him, "Manager Jiang, are you worried about Miss He? Don't worry! You just warned her, I believe she won't dare to harm Master Wu again!"
Jiang Li merely glanced at him before turning and heading to another spot.
Goldman Sachs found the place uninteresting and left as well.
"Wu Weiwei, you and Xue Ping have ruined me. Today it's either you or me, you choose!"
He Yuyan pulled a sharp weapon from her bosom.
He Yuyan raised an eyebrow as she looked at the sharp blade in her hand.
“He Yuyan, what happened that day was clearly your doing to harm me. I was just giving you a taste of your own medicine. You deserved it all…”
"Deserved punishment? You actually think I deserved it, hah..."
He Yuyan laughed loudly, and then walked towards Wu Weiwei with a ferocious expression.
Just then, they saw Lu Hanting leading his men rushing towards them aggressively from not far away.
Upon seeing this, He Yuyan suddenly stopped in her tracks.
"Wu Weiwei, I've changed my mind..."
She then pointed the dagger at her chest.
"Today I will make the Crown Prince see your true colors!"
