The two of them stayed in the room and didn’t go out. Bu Yaolian wove exquisite knots, and Qian’er played with the crown prince. The two of them chatted casually.
But Gu Bailu and the others weren’t having as easy a time.
The carriage headed for the forest. It was already freezing, and there had been hail two days ago. The road was b.u.mpy, and the carriage shook like crazy.
It was no wonder that Lu Fenying was willing to let Qian’er stay back in the imperial palace. If the little crown prince came, he would fall sick.
Gu Bailu was pregnant and it wasn’t easy for her. Feng Qingtian had no choice but to use his martial arts to take them to Demon Beast Forest.
“Taking a carriage in a place like this is just asking for trouble!” Gu Bailu almost vomited.
Feng Qingtian stroked her head. “I should’ve left you in the palace.”
“I’ll be under strict guard there. It’s fine. How can any baby of ours not take this little bit of discomfort?” Gu Bailu touched her belly.
Feng Qingtian kissed her forehead. “It’ll get better soon.”
“Yes.” Gu Bailu smiled. “Looking at the arrangements today, the people in the carriage next to Xiao Jingyun’s aren’t simple.”
“Follow me later. Don’t act on your own.”
Gu Bailu nodded. “I’ll follow you and cling to you forever.”
“Don’t talk nonsense. I have no way of restraining you right now.” Feng Qingtian pinched her nose.
Gu Bailu stuck out her tongue. “You only know how to think about that.”
“If I don’t use that to restrain you, what else can I use?”
He couldn’t beat or scold him, and could only bully her in bed.
After flirting for a while, the carriage finally arrived.
Ye Ying and Ah Luo took out a chair from the carriage for Gu Bailu to sit on, and she didn’t let Prince Zi carry her the whole time.
Although he was strong, Gu Bailu was pregnant, and her body wasn’t light.
When they reached their destination, Xiao Jingyun ordered someone to set up tents.
Hunting in Demon Beast Forest wasn’t like hunting in the royal hunting grounds. What residences were there to stay in here? This was all camping in the wilderness.
However, the imperial troops were quick to set up camp. They soon set up tents and braziers which burned silver coal that didn’t give off smoke.
Ah Luo took out a tiger fur rug and put it on the ground. It was padded with several layers of soft blankets, and she put a big pillow at the head of the bed for Gu Bailu to lean on.
Gu Bailu lay down and finally felt better. “Finally.”
“They’re preparing lunch outside. What would you like for lunch, Your Highness?” Ye Ying asked.
Gu Bailu might not like what the cooks outside made, so they had brought their own chef with them.
Gu Bailu had felt uncomfortable earlier, but she now wanted spicy food. It would be perfect for warming up the body in cold weather like this.
“Make spicy and sour dough b.a.l.l.s. I don’t want to eat anything else.”
“Alright.”
When it was time for lunch, Xiao Jingyun’s men came to deliver the food. It was prepared very well. In a short while, ten dishes and two soups were laid out. They looked and smelled delicious.
Some of them were wild game.
Ah Luo was happy, but Gu Bailu only ate the sour and spicy dough b.a.l.l.s. She had no appet.i.te for anything else.
After lunch, Gu Bailu took a nap. She was roused by the news outside that the hunt was going to start.
Gu Bailu got up, knowing that the real battle had already begun.
She instantly no longer felt sleepy.
When they walked out of the tent, everyone had gathered. Xiao Jingyun walked out, and there were a few people with him.
