Chapter 586: Chapter 586: This is Serious_1

His vision was obstructed by Xiao Changyi, preventing him from seeing An Jing, who was blocked behind Xiao Changyi. Su Chengyu: "..."

Brother Yi, you clearly know I mean no harm to your wife, yet you still block the way...

This is really too...

What to do, I’m missing my Crown Princess Consort again!

An Jing looked at the tall figure that suddenly stood in front of her and felt both amusement and sweetness.

She didn’t say anything to Xiao Changyi but instead reached out her hand to interlock it with one of Xiao Changyi’s. Their fingers interlaced tightly.

And when Xiao Changyi felt An Jing’s hand reaching out to interlock with his, he turned around to look at her. It wasn’t until their fingers were tightly intertwined that his normally expressionless lips curled into a barely visible smile.

Su Chengyu’s gaze silently shifted away from An Jing and Xiao Changyi’s interlocked hands, and then, he silently looked towards the direction of the Imperial Palace. Without making a sound, he thought: Crown Princess Consort, I do miss you. It’s the first time I’ve missed you this much.

Meng Zhuqing and the guards standing on the side: "..." We are blind; we see nothing!

And that evening, because there was a loving couple at the dinner table—Xiao Changyi and An Jing—Su Chengyu ended up eating one bowl less of rice.

During casual conversation at the dinner table, Su Chengyu mentioned that Linghe was already four months pregnant.

Once Linghe married the Emperor of Chilin, she was conferred the title of Consort Ling. As soon as it was confirmed that she was expecting a child, she wrote back to inform both the Emperor of Xiyun and the Prince of Pingjun of the good news.

Upon hearing that Linghe was pregnant with the Emperor of Chilin’s child, An Jing furrowed her brows: "She’s pregnant..."

Seeing the sudden worry on An Jing’s face, Su Chengyu frowned: "Sister-in-law, what’s this...?"

An Jing first exchanged a glance with her husband before she spoke earnestly, "Chengyu, I won’t hide it from you. Your Brother Yi and I are very worried about Linghe. We always feel that her volunteering to marry into the Chilin Kingdom as a consort is not well-intentioned." She paused, "Regardless of her intentions, you and your adoptive father should be more vigilant about her and the Pingjun Prince’s Mansion—it’s always the right move."

Upon hearing this, Su Chengyu’s expression suddenly became grave, and he pondered, "My father and my men have been keeping a discreet eye on her, but now that you’ve brought it up, your words mean that my father and I will have to be even more vigilant."

They had been discreetly vigilant before—just in case. But now, since Brother Yi suspects Linghe harbors ill intentions, the matter has become serious. Brother Yi’s instincts are always accurate.

With this in mind, Su Chengyu added: "After celebrating Jing’er’s hundredth-day banquet tomorrow, I’ll start my journey back to the Capital."

The situation is always changing in an instant, and regardless of the time, Su Chengyu, the Crown Prince, is always better off in the Imperial Capital than staying with them—that’s what both An Jing and Xiao Changyi believe. Therefore, neither An Jing nor Xiao Changyi spoke a word to persuade Su Chengyu to stay another night before departing.

After dinner, Su Chengyu kept clinging to Xiao Changyi, following wherever he went, with one single purpose: to make Xiao Changyi no longer hold a grudge about the initial incident of Su Chengyu recommending An Jing for an official post and to reconsider the letters Su Chengyu wrote to him.

If Brother Yi continued to return the letters he wrote, he really would be suffocated!

This was the truest sentiment in Su Chengyu’s heart.

However, when Su Chengyu was about to follow Xiao Changyi into the inner chamber, Xiao Changyi left him outside the closed door of the chamber. Su Chengyu just remained silent, and then, shamelessly asked someone to bring over a small stool to sit at the doorway of the inner chamber.

The stool was indeed very small and quite low; Su Chengyu, sitting there alone, did look rather pitiful.
