One second to remember [Brushstroke Pavilion] [Free of charge, read the wonderful novel!]

The third prince and Bu Tinghe knelt down to express their gratitude. The two of them looked at each other with smiles on their faces. They were a perfect match for each other.

Bu Jinglan was sipping his wine, while a dark look filled his eyes. It was unknown what he was thinking, but he would occasionally look at Shen Ninghua, and the smile on his face would deepen.

Just as Bu Jinglan was about to return to his seat, he bumped into the maid who was serving the tea behind him. The cup in the maid's hand lost its balance and it fell onto the ground with a thud.

"This servant deserves to die. Princess Wen He, please forgive me." The maid was frightened as she quickly kneeled down and begged for forgiveness.

Shen Ninghua frowned as he looked at the maidservants on the ground begging for forgiveness. As the Full Moon Feast was packed to the brim with guests, Baili Junyi had summoned a batch of maidservants from the Internal Affairs Division.

The Third Prince looked embarrassed, "How dare you, your servant, actually do not know the rules!" Bu Ting was just admitted by her father to be his first wife, yet she was splashed with tea all over. Was he trying to embarrass her?

Baili Junyi chuckled softly. "Third Imperial Brother, I borrowed a few maids from the Internal Affairs Division because I don't have enough manpower. I thought that the rules taught by the senior servants in the palace should be very good. I didn't expect something to happen. Royal brother, please don't be angry. I'll definitely punish her."

"Still not getting down!" Shen Ninghua reprimanded the maid coldly and then looked at Bu Tinghe, "Princess Wen He, I'm really sorry. You and I are of similar stature. Why don't we go to the backyard and change into a dress that I haven't worn yet?"

"Alright, then I'll be troubling Princess Yi." Bu Tinghe's expression turned better as he got up and followed Shen Ninghua towards the backyard.

The two of them walked out of the lobby and headed towards the backyard side by side. Bu Tinghe looked around at the scenery and praised, "This courtyard is really unique. The scenery is so beautiful that people are obsessed with it. I really want to stay here."

Shen Ninghua looked at her coldly, "It's a pity that you won't have the chance to stay here any longer. After all, your identity as the third prince's consort has just been confirmed by the emperor."

"Heh, I still have to thank you for becoming the third prince's consort. Shen Ninghua, aren't you feeling exceptionally proud of yourself now?" Bu Tinghe taunted with a raised eyebrow.

Bu Tinghe sneered and said while grinding his teeth, "I hope you can maintain your pride."

Shen Ninghua swiftly replied, "Many thanks for your blessings. I will definitely do my best to not let you down."

A sharp tongued bitch! Bu Tinghe's eyes turned red and he wanted to strangle Shen Ninghua to death. However, when she lowered her gaze slightly to sweep across his flat abdomen, the ruthlessness in her eyes was slowly suppressed. Shen Ninghua, I will break the thing you are proud of little by little.

"My courtyard is here. Princess Wen He, please."

Bu Tinghe retracted the hatred in his heart and looked at the three words, "Hua Junge?" The word 'Chinese' was written first, and the word 'monarch' was written second? "Hur hur, you sure have big thoughts!" Putting yourself in front of Jun Yi's cousin, how shameless are you, Shen Ninghua?

"Everyone is willing. What do you want to do?" He didn't even have a problem with the words that Baili Junyi had personally written. What are you trying to stir up?

"Shen Ninghua, I'm going to marry into the Third Prince's Mansion soon. In the future, we'll be sister-in-law, and I don't want to waste time with you anymore, so why don't we get things over with today?"

Shen Ninghua's eyes flashed as his gaze swept across Bu Tinghe's lower abdomen. A faint smile appeared on his face as he said, "Alright, what do you want to say?"

"How about we go to the nearby pavilion and sit down?" Seeing her gaze, Bu Tingxiao felt his heart tighten. Could it be that Shen Ninghua had discovered something? Impossible, she had already hidden herself well. Even the imperial physician hadn't discovered her, so how could she?

"Sure." Shen Ninghua happily agreed. She wanted to see what exactly Bu Tinghe was planning.

Just as the two of them entered the pavilion, Bu Tinghe suddenly grabbed Shen Ninghua's wrist and fiercely pulled her to the side of the pool, "Shen Ninghua, I'm going to destroy everything you've obtained today with my own hands!"

Shen Ninghua's expression was solemn as he struggled with all his might. However, he did not pull away. "What are you trying to do?"

Bu Tinghe had a sweet smile on his face, but his eyes revealed a crazy look: "I'm telling you, I'm pregnant. It's been more than five months. "Haha!"

Just as she finished speaking, she saw the silhouette of the Third Prince running over in a hurry. A strange smile appeared on his face, "Shen Ninghua, just you wait!" After he finished speaking, he pulled Shen Ninghua's hand in her direction and then fell into the water.

She didn't forget to shout in panic before diving into the water, "Princess Yi, why did you harm me?!"

The Third Prince happened to see this scene, and his eyes widened as he rushed towards Shen Ninghua, "Shen Ninghua, you slut, you actually harmed Tinghe!"

Following closely behind the Third Prince was Baili Qingfeng. When he saw what had happened, he immediately frowned.

Shen Ninghua stood on the spot, not a single trace of panic on his face.

The Third Prince rushed over and raised his hand to slap Shen Ninghua. Baili Junyi abruptly leapt forward and grabbed the Third Prince's arm. He coldly asked, "Third Imperial Brother, what are you going to do to my wangfei?"

"Baili Junyi, are you trying to protect that slut from Tinghe?"

"Third Imperial Brother, watch your words. Royal Father had just personally bestowed the title of Princess Guolong. You are of the same rank as the Prince, and yet you are only a duke. Don't be disorderly with your words!"

The third prince's eyes were bloodshot. "Good, good, you …"

Shen Ninghua's eyes were calm without the slightest ripple, and his voice was cold and indifferent, "Third Prince, since you have the time to cause trouble here, why don't you fish Bu Tinghe out of the water first?"

The Third Prince, Baili Jinyu, glared hatefully at Shen Ninghua and Jun Yi, before dashing over to the railing. When he saw what was happening in the lake, he was instantly stunned.

Bu Tingxiao was floating on the surface of the water with his eyes closed, only wetting his back and hair. Only when he looked carefully did he realize that there was a layer of net hanging in the water beside the railing. The net was rather large, and was about two inches underwater.

Baili Qing Cang and Bu Yun Qing had also rushed over to the side of the pool. When they saw the scene in front of them, their faces immediately turned black.

"What is this?"

Hearing Baili Qing's angry question, Bu Yunqing frowned and sighed.

Originally, she was very happy to know that Bu Tingxiao and Bu Jinglan were in the Great An Country. After she found out that Bu Tinghe liked Baili Junyi, she wanted to help them out as well. However, after she mentioned this matter, Baili Junyi rejected her offer and she stopped thinking about it.

"Someone, quickly scoop up Princess Wen He. It's so cold, even if you can't drown in the water, you'll still freeze to death."

A few old women who knew water hurriedly went forward to pick up the net, and a few maids brought Bu Tinghe out.

The Third Prince quickly stepped forward, "Principal Chen, quickly come and see me. What is the matter with Ting He?"

He checked his pulse and his expression suddenly changed, "Reporting to your majesty, Princess Wen He has been pregnant for five and a half months. She has just fallen into the water and fainted due to the cold, and will wake up soon. The fetus is fine.

"What did you say?" Five and a half months of gestation? " The veins on Baili Qingfeng's forehead throbbed. He had just been bestowed the marriage to the Third Prince, yet he was already diagnosed with a pregnancy. Just how big of a imperial scandal was this?

Seeing Baili Qingfeng's expression, the Third Prince hurriedly explained, "Father, this child belongs to this son of mine!"

"What did you say?" Baili Qing Cang shouted!

The officials and women behind him were all holding their breaths. They had all heard about how the Third Prince had sacrificed himself to save the Third Prince, and Bu Tinghe's pregnancy time was correct as well. This child was definitely the Third Prince's.

"Imperial Father, I was invited to a banquet held at the inn. At that time …" "Later on, I wanted to tell you about this matter. I didn't expect that when I arrived at the Cheng Gan Palace that day, I would run into Senior Concubine Xian, so I didn't have the chance to tell you about it."

"It was you who didn't get the chance to say it that day, but in the past five months, you haven't found the opportunity?"

"This child is confused. Father, please punish this son, but this child is truly this son's. He is also your royal grandson, you cannot sit idly by and do nothing!" The third prince's voice was filled with urgency. This child was born to be his son, and he was even the blood of Ting He and him. Why must he stay behind?!

Baili Qing Cang's face darkened. He was so angry that he couldn't even speak properly, "You …"

She felt as if her entire body had been frozen into ice, and a faint pain came from her abdomen. She felt a burst of excitement in her heart, and it seemed that her plan had succeeded, but her face revealed an expression of utter sorrow as she spoke weakly in the third prince's arms.

"Your Highness Third Prince, child, our child …"

The Third Prince immediately held her hand. "Ting He, don't worry. I'm fine. I'm fine."

Before Baili Jin could finish his words, Bu Tinghe thought he was just comforting himself. He was crying in his arms and tears kept falling down his cheeks.

After a long while, she slowly raised her head and looked at Shen Ninghua with a desolate gaze.

"Princess Yi, I've never offended you before. Why must you kill my child? This is the child of the third prince and I, and also of the royal family. Even if he was born, he wouldn't steal your limelight.

Shen Ninghua sneered and looked mockingly at Bu Ting's excellent performance, "Princess Wen He, are you not allowed to speak carelessly?"

"What I said was clearly the truth. Where is the nonsense?" Bu Tinghe tugged on the Third Prince's sleeve, "Your Highness, I was going to find a chance to tell you, but unfortunately, I didn't get the chance …" "Woo woo …"
