Chapter 13: The Crown Prince's MercyChapter 1320: A Son and a Daughter

Zhao Rui looked up and saw Li Chen lying on the eaves. She was startled and hurriedly said, "Your Highness, it's dangerous up there, please come down."

"These guards are truly useless, allowing the Prince to act so recklessly If he falls and gets hurt, each one of you will have your heads chopped off!"

Zhao Rui's authority had long been deeply ingrained in the hearts of the guards at the East Palace. Seeing Zhao Rui reprimand them, they all quickly lowered their heads and dared not speak.

Li Chen chuckled and said, “Why blame them I wanted to come up myself. They wouldn’t dare stop me, would they Come up here with me. The view is beautiful, and the air is fresh. Tonight, Your Highness and I will enjoy the moon together.”

Zhao Rui was both excited and worried.

It's wonderful to have a romantic moment with Li Chen, but I'm worried he might fall off the roof.

Although Zhao Rui knew Li Chen's temper, she didn't dare to say much. Following the ladder, she was pulled onto the roof by Li Chen.

Just standing up, Zhao Rui was still a little scared and didn't dare to look down. However, being pulled by Li Chen to the middle, she suddenly felt a lot safer.

Sitting on the eaves, Zhao Rui learned from Li Chen's example and looked up at the bright moon in the sky. She said, "This is the first time this concubine has ever looked at the moon like this."

Li Chen smiled lightly: "Being bored at home often, you can find more fun for yourself, even if it's the same thing, seeing it in a different place is also different."

Zhao Rui nodded gently and said, “Your Highness is right.”

Zhao Rui replied, "My father is currently serving in the capital city and it's easy to contact him. Letters aren't very frequent, but my mother visited a few days ago. She said that my father deeply appreciates your trust and spends his days pondering how best to fulfill his duties and repay your kindness."

Li Chen smiled and said, "He's capable, that's why. Otherwise, I would rather keep him as a pet than give him any official position. He's just started his new role, and he's adapting well. He has handled several things quite nicely. Two ministers even wrote letters praising him. He's doing very well."

"It's all thanks to your good fortune, Your Lordship."

Zhao Rui spoke softly, turning her head to look intently at Li Chen. Her eyes were filled with tenderness.

She thought that there was no better life than this one.

There are no secrets before Your Highness. There is no need to laboriously conceal so many worries, and one's own family is also grateful to Your Highness and dares not have any ulterior motives. Your Highness trusts one's own family even more.

Think about it, those days when I was threatened by Zhao Xuanji before, they were truly inhuman.

It is precisely because she has gone through all those experiences that Zhao Rui cherishes her present life.

The only downside is... that Your Highness has not been blessed with a son or daughter.

Thinking about this, Zhao Rui felt a little annoyed.

She also secretly went to see Zhang Hezhi several times, but her own body was perfectly fine. She served the master many times and never took any precautions, yet her belly just wouldn't cooperate.

"What's wrong Your expression keeps changing between good and bad."

Li Chen's voice woke Zhao Rui.

"Come on, tell me what's on your mind," Li Chen said softly.

Zhao Rui was a little shy, but she still whispered: "The concubine wants to give the prince a son or daughter, but has never been successful."

Li Chen was stunned and said, "What's the rush I'm so young, and you are too. We have plenty of time. I'm not even thinking about having children right now."n the snow and kowtowed frantically.In the muddy snow, mud splashed everywhere, coating Jiang Zhou's half body like he had taken a mud bath.But he, however, didn't care at all.
