“Even if I didn’t like men, I wouldn’t suddenly have a thing for women either.” Chu Jiu frowned, feeling quite exasperated. What exactly was the Empress thinking of?
“I find that quite reassuring,” Lu Liangwei laughed with her hand against her waist. She slowly laid down against Chu Jiu’s thighs.
Chu Jiu, “…”
Lu Liangwei had gone through quite a lot today and it would not come as a surprise that she was exhausted. She used Chu Jiu’s thighs as a pillow and drifted to sleep shortly.
When she saw this, Chu Jiu removed her sword and placed it to the side. She brought over a thin blanket to cover Lu Liangwei.
The horse-drawn carriage was headed back to Grand Phoenix Palace.
Chu Jiu was about to wake Lu Liangwei up when the carriage stopped, but the Empress had already woken up on her own.
Lu Liangwei rubbed her sleepy eyes, trying to get accustomed to the surroundings.
Chu Jiu instinctively wanted to reach out and help Lu Liangwei up. At that moment, the blinds on the carriage were suddenly drawn from outside the carriage.
Chu Jiu stopped in her tracks and turned to look. She thought it was Zhu Yu and was about to say something when she received a shock upon realizing who the person outside was. She quietly felt a wave of dread. She had never thought that what she had just talked to Her Highness about would come true.

The murderous look on His Majesty’s face was truly frightening.
Her Highness was right. There was a high chance that Chu Jiu would not live to see the moon tonight.
Long Yang had found out that Lu Liangwei slipped out of the Palace. The thought of her tiring herself out by running around while pregnant made him worried. He could not stop himself from rushing over the moment he heard that her carriage had returned to the Palace.
However, he had not expected to witness such a scene right in front of him the moment he lifted the blinds.
A frosty look covered his handsome features when he saw what was happening in the carriage.
His gaze drilled into the dazed woman lying on another person’s thigh, his expression that of a husband who had just caught his wife cheating. He looked enraged.
Chu Jiu could feel the air around her quickly turning to ice. The chilling atmosphere pressed onto her and she found herself barely able to breathe.
She tried her best to suppress the fear in her heart and forced herself to say respectfully, “Your Highness.”
She gently pushed the drowsy Lu Liangwei who was still lying down on her thigh as she said this. She gave her a quiet warning, “Your Highness, wake up. His Majesty is here.”
Lu Liangwei thought Chu Jiu was trying to trick her and she laughed softly. “Jiu, who taught you how to pull a prank? That guy is still doing his administrative work in the imperial study.”
With that, Lu Liangwei yawned and reached out to hug Chu Jiu around the waist. Her head nuzzled against Chu Jiu as she took the opportunity to take great advantage of her.
Chu Jiu’s expression turned deathly gray—she thought the heavens must want her dead!

“Your Highness, it really is His Majesty. Hurry and wake up.” She lowered her head, not daring to look directly at the Emperor’s enraged expression as she warned once more in a trembling voice. If not for the Empress being pregnant, she would have already made a run for it.
Lu Liangwei realized something was wrong when she heard the strange inflection in her voice. The moment she turned around, she immediately saw the icy look in the man’s eyes.
Lu Liangwei gave a start and her sleepiness vanished. It took her a good moment before she managed to force a smile and say with forced calmness, “What are you doing here, Your Majesty?”
Long Yang had already let himself into the carriage, his gaze not leaving her during the process.
Lu Liangwei gulped, feeling slightly uncomfortable as she looked back into his eyes, which had a look that could murder someone.
Chu Jiu had nowhere to pour her grievances. She felt that she had already put one foot through the gates of hell.
“Get out!” The Emperor’s wrathful voice rang out and Chu Jiu felt something sweep over her. She was sent flying out of the carriage helplessly.
Long Yang grabbed onto Lu Liangwei just as she was about to fall over.
Lu Liangwei’s heart was hanging by a thread, but when she saw the man grab onto her, she collected herself and hit him on the chest angrily. “What if our child was hurt?”
Her head was still on Jiu’s thigh when he had suddenly attacked Jiu, causing Lu Liangwei to almost fall. Was he not aware of that?
“Even if I didn’t like men, I wouldn’t suddenly have a thing for women either.” Chu Jiu frowned, feeling quite exasperated. What exactly was the Empress thinking of?
