The Third Prince and Bu Tinghe knelt down hand in hand and thanked Baili Qingcang. The two of them stood together and smiled at each other. They looked like a perfect match.

Bu Jinglan held his wine cup and slightly pursed his lips. There was a gloomy look in his eyes. No one knew what he was thinking. Only when he occasionally looked at Shen Ninghua would the smile on his lips deepen.

Just as Bu Jinglan returned to his seat, he bumped into the maid who was serving tea behind him. The maid did not hold the teacup in her hand firmly and the cup fell to the ground with a bang. Tea splashed all over Bu Tinghe. “Ah…”

“Sorry, Princess Wenhe. Please forgive me.” The maid was so shocked that her face turned pale, and she hurriedly knelt down to beg for forgiveness.

Shen Ninghua frowned and looked at the maid who was kneeling on the ground. Because there were many guests at the full-month party, Baili Junyi temporarily borrowed a batch of maids from the Internal Affairs Department. The maid who knocked over the teacup was one of them.

The Third Prince looked embarrassed. “How dare you! Don’t you know the rules!” Bu Tinghe had just been admitted by Father Emperor to be his wife, and now she was splashed with tea all over. Was someone trying to embarrass him?

Baili Junyi chuckled. “Third Elder Brother, because we are short of hands today, we temporarily borrowed a few maids from the Internal Affairs Department. I thought that the maids trained by the nurses in the Palace should have no problem, but this still happened. Brother, don’t be angry. I will definitely punish her.”

“Get down!” Shen Ninghua scolded the maid coldly and then said to Bu Tinghe, “Princess Wenhe, I’m really sorry. We are about the same size. How about following me to my backyard and I will find a new dress for you?”

“Alright, sorry to trouble you, Princess Yi.” Bu Tinghe’s expression looked better. She got up and followed Shen Ninghua to the backyard.

The two of them left the front hall and walked side by side towards the backyard. Bu Tinghe looked at the surrounding scenery and exclaimed in admiration, “This courtyard is really unique. The scenery is so beautiful that it makes me linger and forget to leave. I really want to live here.”

Shen Ninghua looked at her coldly. “It’s a pity that you don’t have the chance to live here. After all, your identity as the Third Princess has just been confirmed by His Majesty.”

“Ah, I have to thank you for letting me become the Third Princess. Shen Ninghua, are you particularly happy now?” Bu Tinghe raised her eyebrows and sneered.

Shen Ninghua curled her lips into a smile. “I have an auspicious pair of boy-girl twins. My husband loves me and my mother-in-law gets along with me. Of course, I am very happy.”

Bu Tinghe sneered and gritted her teeth. “I hope you can maintain your pride.”

Shen Ninghua swiftly replied, “Thank you for your blessing. I will try my best to live up to your expectations.”

What a sharp-tongued bitch! Bu Tinghe’s eyes turned red with anger. She wished she could strangle Shen Ninghua to death. However, when her gaze slightly lowered and swept across her flat belly, the viciousness in her eyes slowly subsided. She swore in her heart. “Shen Ninghua, I will slowly shatter the things that you are proud of. Let’s see how you can show off then!”

“We have arrived at my courtyard. Please come in, Princess Wenhe.”

Bu Tinghe restrained the hatred in her heart and looked up at Huajun Pavilion. “Huajun Pavilion? It’s actually’ Hua ‘in front,’ Jun ‘in the back? Haha, how dare you!” Putting yourself in front of Cousin Junyi, how big of a face did you have, Shen Ninghua?

“We are both willing to use this name. What does it have to do with you?” Baili Junyi wrote these words by himself and didn’t have a problem with the name. Did you think you could sow discord between us?

Bu Tinghe chuckled and looked at the lotus pond next to Huajun Pavilion. Her gaze slowly turned deeper. “Shen Ninghua, I will soon marry into the Third Prince Mansion. We will be sisters-in-law in the future. I don’t want to continue to pester you. Why don’t we make it clear today?”

Shen Ninghua’s eyes flashed. Her gaze swept over Bu Tinghe’s lower belly and her face revealed a half-smile. “Okay, what do you want to say?”

“Why don’t we sit down at the waterside pavilion?” Seeing her gaze, Bu Tinghe’s heart tightened. Could it be that Shen Ninghua had discovered something? That’s impossible. She concealed herself very well. Even the imperial doctor did not discover it. How could she discover it?

“Sure.” Shen Ninghua readily agreed. She wanted to see what Bu Tinghe was up to.

The two had just walked into the waterside pavilion when Bu Tinghe suddenly grabbed Shen Ninghua’s wrist and pulled her to the side of the pond. “Shen Ninghua, I will personally destroy everything you possess today!”

Shen Ninghua’s expression was serious. She struggled hard but did not succeed. “What do you want to do?”

The smile on Bu Tinghe’s face was sweet, but the look in her eyes was particularly crazy. “Let me tell you. I am pregnant, for more than five months. The Third Prince’s child is going to be killed by you today! Haha!”

As soon as she finished speaking, she saw the Third Prince running over hurriedly. A strange smile appeared on her face. “Shen Ninghua, just wait to die!” After saying that, She pulled Shen Ninghua’s wrist in her direction, and then fell into the pond.

Before falling into the water, she did not forget to shout with a panicked expression, “Princess Yi, why did you harm me?”

When the Third Prince saw this scene, his eyes almost popped out of their sockets and he rushed towards Shen Ninghua. “Shen Ninghua, you bitch, you actually harmed Tinghe!”

Baili Qingcang, who was following closely behind the Third Prince, also saw what had just happened and he immediately frowned.

Shen Ninghua stood where she was without the slightest bit of panic on her face.

The Third Prince rushed over and raised his hand to slap Shen Ninghua. Baili Junyi suddenly jumped forward, grabbed his arm, and asked coldly, “Third Elder Brother, what are you going to do to my wife?”

“Baili Junyi, are you trying to protect the bitch who harmed Tinghe?”

“Third Elder Brother, be careful with your words. Father Emperor has just personally conferred her the title of Noble Princess Zhaohua. She is of the same rank as a Royal Prince, and you are just a Prefectural Prince. Don’t mistake your position!”

Third Prince’s eyes were red with anger. “Good, good, you two…”

Shen Ninghua’s eyes were calm without the slightest ripple, and her voice was cold and indifferent. “Third Prince, if you have time to make a scene here, why don’t you get Bu Tinghe out of the water first?”

The Third Prince Baili Jinyu looked at Shen Ninghua and Baili Junyi with hatred, then he suddenly rushed to the railing. When he saw the scene in the pool, he was stunned.

He saw that Bu Tinghe was floating on the surface of the water with her eyes closed. Only her back and hair were wet. When he looked closely, he found that there was a layer of net hanging in the pond beside the railing. The net consisted of large holes and was about two inches deep in the water. Without careful look, one would not be able to find it at all.

Baili Qingcang and Bu Yunqing also rushed to the pond. Seeing the scene in front of them, their faces immediately darkened.

“What is this fuss about?”

Hearing Baili Qingcang’s angry question, Bu Yunqing frowned and sighed.

Originally, she was very happy to know that Bu Tinghe and Bu Jinglan were in Da’an. Later, after she found that Bu Tinghe liked Baili Junyi, she also wanted to match the two of them. However, after she mentioned this, Baili Junyi sternly refused. She then put away her thoughts. Unexpectedly, Bu Tinghe still refused to give up. After all, they were related by blood, so she could not be too ruthless with her.

“Someone, hurry up and get Princess Wenhe up. It’s so cold. After being soaked in water for so long, even if she didn’t get drowned, she’ll be frozen.”

A few nurses who could swim quickly went forward to pick up the net, and several maids came forward to carry Bu Tinghe out.

The Third Prince hurried forward. “Doctor Chen, hurry up and take a look at her. Is there anything wrong with Tinghe?”

Chen Yun looked at Baili Qingcang. Seeing him nod, he stepped forward and checked her pulse. His expression suddenly changed. “Your Majesty, Princess Wenhe is already five and a half months pregnant. She just fell into the water and fainted because of the cold. She will wake up in a while and the baby is fine. I will write two prescriptions of abortion prevention medicine for nurturing her body.”

“What did you say? Five and a half months pregnant?” The veins on Baili Qingcang’s forehead popped. She had just been bestowed a marriage to the Third Prince and now she was diagnosed with pregnancy. How big of a scandal was this for the royal family?

Seeing Baili Qingcang’s expression, the Third Prince hurriedly explained, “Father Emperor, this child is mine!”

“What did you say?” Baili Qingcang shouted.

The officials and women behind them all held their breaths. They had all heard that the Third Prince sacrificed himself to save Bu Tinghe. The pregnancy month matched the time. It must be the Third Prince’s baby.

“Father Emperor, I was invited to attend the banquet held at the embassy. At that time…” The Third Prince briefly told the story, “Later, I wanted to tell you about this matter, but I didn’t expect that when I arrived at Chengqian Hall that day, Noble Consort Xian returned, so I didn’t have the chance to tell you.”

“You didn’t have the chance to say it that day, but couldn’t you find a chance in the past five months?”

“I was wrong. Please punish me, Father Emperor. But this child is really mine. He is also your grandson. You can’t just sit by and do nothing.” The Third Prince said anxiously. When the baby was born, it would be his legitimate son. Moreover, it was he and Tinghe’s baby. He had to save it!

Baili Qingcang’s face was gloomy and he couldn’t even speak well due to anger. “You…”

While the two of them were arguing, Bu Tinghe slowly woke up. She felt a chill all over her body as if she was about to be frozen into ice, and there was a burst of pain coming from her belly. She got excited. It seemed that her plan had succeeded. She put on a sad and heartbroken expression and weakly said in the Third Prince’s arms,

“Your Highness, our baby, our baby…”

The Third Prince quickly held her hand. “Tinghe, don’t worry. It’s fine. It’s fine now.”

Baili Jinyu did not speak clearly, so Bu Tinghe thought that he was just comforting her. She sobbed in his arms and tears kept falling from her cheeks like raindrops on a pear blossom.

After a while, she slowly raised her head and looked at Shen Ninghua with a desolate gaze.

“Princess Yi, I have never offended you. Why did you want to kill my baby? This is the Third Prince’s baby, a descendant of the royal family. Even if he is born, he will not steal your limelight. Why are you so ruthless?”

Shen Ninghua sneered and looked at Bu Tinghe’s excellent performance mockingly. “Princess Wenhe, take care not to speak nonsense.”

“I’m telling the truth. What nonsense did I speak?” Bu Tinghe tugged at the Third Prince’s sleeve tightly. “Your Highness, I wanted to find an opportunity to tell you, but I didn’t have the time to…Alas…”
