After refusing marriage, she was pampered by the prince who acted as a shield.

Chapter 398: News

"Your Highness and Your Highness, you should leave first... We don't know when the Second Prince will return, so please don't take this risk again."

Faced with the Second Princess's attempt to drive them away, Li Jingyang and Lin Rusi had no choice but to comply.

After bidding farewell to the Second Princess Consort, Li Jingyang and Lin Rusi returned to the Prince's Mansion.

Upon returning to the Prince's residence, Ye Ruoruo anxiously inquired about the two of them.

So Lin Rusi told Ye Ruoruo everything that had happened that day.

Upon hearing that the Second Princess Consort had been so mistreated by the Second Prince, Ye Ruoruo was also furious.

"He's a real beast!"

"Okay, senior sister, you don't need to get angry over this beast. We must bring him down no matter what!"

As they spoke, they were both filled with indignation.

However, Li Jingyang had already sent people to closely monitor the Second Prince.

Li Jingyang wanted to see what the Second Prince was planning to do next.

As for the situation of the emperor and the crown prince, Li Jingyang also sent people to investigate.

But right now, what Li Jingyang is most worried about is Lin Rusi.

After all, Lin Rusi had been doing risky things.

Even though this time it was Li Jingyang and Lin Rusi who went to the Second Prince's residence together.

However, Lin Rusi actually kicked Li Jingyang out.

After arranging everything, Li Jingyang went to the bedroom.

After Ye Ruoruo recovered from her illness, she moved out of the bedroom, leaving only the two of them.

"Asi, you're still too reckless. Why do you insist on taking all these responsibilities upon yourself?"

Li Jingyang's expression was exceptionally cold as he looked at Lin Rusi in front of him and spoke calmly.

However, Lin Rusi did not have any special reaction when she heard these words.

"I felt we couldn't both be put in danger, so I made a bit of a unilateral decision..."

Lin Rusi continued explaining to herself, but her hands were still busy with her own things.

Seeing Lin Rusi's state, Li Jingyang sighed helplessly and reached out to put his arm around her waist.

"What about the baby in your belly? You're so careless, what if the baby gets hurt too?"

Hearing Li Jingyang mention the baby in her womb, Lin Rusi felt extremely ashamed.

After all, she was indeed a bit of a failure as a mother.

Even though the baby in her belly was already several months along, she was still running around with the child.

"I……"

Lin Rusi opened her mouth, but for a moment she didn't know how to explain.

"I just want As to promise me that you won't take such risks again, okay? Otherwise, I'm really worried."

Li Jingyang's words made Lin Rusi hesitate.

After all, they don't know what will happen next.

Moreover, there are still many things to resolve, so how could Lin Rusi rest peacefully in her bedroom?

However, Li Jingyang clearly saw through Lin Rusi's thoughts and immediately spoke up.

"You've always been like this, what if something happens to the baby in your belly?"

Li Jingyang mentioned the baby in her belly again, and this time Lin Rusi nodded.

"Alright, Your Highness, I'll grant your request... I promise I'll take good care of the baby in my womb."

Hearing that Lin Rusi had agreed to his request, Li Jingyang was overjoyed.

He lowered his head and kissed Lin Rusi's lips.

Just as the two of them were lying on the bed, Lin Rusi suddenly remembered the letter that the Second Princess Consort had given her.

Lin Rusi then stood up neatly and handed the letter to Li Jingyang.

"You must deliver this letter to Ling Xue'er no matter what. It was written to her by the Second Imperial Consort."

Lin Rusi said softly and handed the letter to Li Jingyang.

After receiving the letter, Li Jingyang thought for a long time and agreed to Lin Rusi's request.

I wonder if Ling Xue'er is willing to see Li Jingyang or not?

"Your Highness, please rest assured, she will definitely see you."

Only after hearing Lin Rusi's words did Li Jingyang feel relieved.

The next morning, Li Jingyang delivered the letter to Lingxiao Pavilion.

Ling Xue'er was extremely excited after receiving the letter.

To express her gratitude to Lin Rusi and Li Jingyang, Ling Xueer personally provided Li Jingyang with a message.

"Since the Princess and the Prince have been so helpful to me, I'll tell the Prince some good news."

Upon hearing Ling Xue'er's words, Li Jingyang immediately became serious.

"The Second Prince seems to be a little impatient; he will kill the Crown Prince in a few days."

This statement was somewhat unexpected for Li Jingyang.

It seems that the second prince is finally eager to ascend the throne.

However, if he were to kill the crown prince in a few days, his wolfish ambitions would soon be revealed to the world.

"Your information network is truly extensive; I admire it. I will go back and discuss countermeasures once I have learned of it."

After thanking Xie, Li Jingyang and Ling Xue'er left Lingxiao Pavilion and returned to their own palace without stopping.

However, Lin Rusi slowly woke up, stroking her belly and lazily yawning.

Looking at the empty bed, Lin Rusi knew that Li Jingyang had gone out again.

Before Lin Rusi could finish her breakfast, Li Jingyang returned with the message.

"Asi, you're awake. I just returned from Lingxiao Pavilion with some news."

Upon hearing Li Jingyang's words, Lin Rusi didn't even eat breakfast.

Pulling Li Jingyang along, she wanted to know what kind of news it was.

So Li Jingyang relayed all the information Ling Xueer had told him to Lin Rusi.

After hearing these words, Lin Rusi narrowed her eyes.

"Why did it take the second prince so long to finally decide to make a move?"

Lin Rusi asked with a hint of doubt, but Li Jingyang just waved his hand helplessly.

"Anyway, his prodigal ambitions have long been known to the world, but during this period he just wanted the Crown Prince and the Emperor to compromise."

Li Jingyang's words made perfect sense, and Lin Rusi couldn't help but nod in agreement.

"Then we must keep a close eye on the Second Prince's movements and make sure he doesn't get any opportunities to take advantage of us."

Li Jingyang had already taken care of everything Lin Rusi had mentioned.

"Don't worry, Asi, I've already sent people to keep an eye on him."

Lin Rusi was relieved after hearing Li Jingyang's words.

But they still need to be fully prepared and not let the Second Prince get the chance.

So Li Jingyang and Lin Rusi prepared to enter the palace.
