Chu Mingcui slowly walked over and continued to sit next to him, holding his hand and covering her belly, saying: "This is our child. He is our prince."

King Qi was suddenly startled, and suddenly withdrew his hand and stared at her.

Chu Mingcui looked at him and asked coldly: "What are you afraid of?"

King Qi was really frightened. He never knew that Chu Mingcui had such thoughts.

He is a prince now. Even if he is pregnant with a son, he is at most the heir apparent.

"Tui'er, don't talk nonsense!" King Qi retracted his hand as if it was being burned. He lay on his side, ignoring the injury on his arm which was being suppressed.

Chu Mingcui really wanted to slap him.

She was stunned and couldn't believe that she had chosen a loser.

After a long time, she forced out a smile. "My grandfather told me that he would make you the crown prince. My grandfather asked me to test your mind. Just now, I was testing you."

King Qi slowly turned around. "Testing?"

"Well, grandpa just wants to see if you have this intention, if you have the courage, and if you have the responsibility." Chu Mingcui said in a cold and authentic voice.

King Qi was silent for a moment, "The first assistant has overthought things. My father has made his own decision. Besides, my father is still young. There is no need to rush to establish an heir."

Chu Mingcui sneered in his heart, not in a hurry to establish an heir? Now everyone's eyes are fixed on the position of the prince. Even the civil and military officials are slowly looking for a suitable prince to get closer.

Even King Sun has now begun to make preparations.

He said there was no rush? He was really confused to the extreme.

Chu Mingcui's heart felt a lot colder.

She stood up and said calmly: "You rest first, I'll go out for a while."

She walked out slowly, but King Qi shouted in horror, "Tui'er!"

She turned back and looked at him.

King Qi felt it was difficult to breathe and said with difficulty: "Your clothes, you have come to believe in them."

Chu Mingcui said calmly: "Really? Then I'll change my clothes."

After saying that, she walked to the cabinet, took out some clothes, and changed them behind the screen.

She didn't look panicked or surprised at all.

King Qi was extremely surprised, "You ordered someone to report to the palace today, but you are not pregnant now. How can you explain this?"

"No need to explain, who knew I was going to send a letter? The palace wouldn't take off my pants to see, right?" Chu Mingcui said coldly.

King Qi couldn't believe that these words came out of her mouth. His eyes were so wide that he could almost stuff a duck egg into his mouth.

Chu Mingcui did not stay, but turned around and went out.

King Qi collapsed on the bed, his hands and feet were cold.

Why did she change all of a sudden?

Chu Mingcui went out and went to the side hall with gloomy eyes.

"Get ready, I want to go back to my parents' house." She told the maid beside her.

"Yes!" The maid went out and ordered someone to prepare the carriage.

Chu Mingcui knew she shouldn't have been like this, but she was really fed up.

She didn't want to keep coaxing and guiding him like this. If it was effective, she might as well.

But he's just a loser.

She didn't know if she could hold on.

She really regretted why she chose him in the first place.

Now that Brother Hao is favored by the Emperor and the Emperor has recovered from his illness, his chances are the greatest.

Returning to her parents' home, she went to stay with her grandmother, who had been ill since she lost her voice.

She kept waiting until Chu Shoufu came back in the evening.

When Chu Shoufu saw her, he said coldly: "Princess, please follow me to the study."

Chu Mingcui responded, "Yes!"

Entering the study, Chu Shoufu took off his coat and hung it on the coat rack. He was dressed in black brocade with bat patterns, looking majestic and solemn.
