Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Without waiting for Jiang Yue and Xue Yan to speak, Shao Shuting hurriedly said, “I can still make the decision when the time comes. Just take it that you’re here to see me. However, it’s not easy to make them come back to visit you all the time. After all, I still have to care about what others think. There are so many people in the military camp, so I have to stick to the rules. So, if you miss your brothers, feel free to visit them, okay?”
HHe sounded a little humble.
He even hugged his sword and squatted down with a pitiful expression, like a big dog that knew it done something wrong.
Jiang Yue and Xue Yan also knew that Shao Shuting had nothing to do with Shao Zhongxi’s matter. Moreover, Shao Shuting really treated them as friends and cared about them very much.
Although they treated Shao Shuting like a stranger on the surface, they had grown fond of him and treated him like a friend.
Moreover, who knew who this Shao Shuting had learned this trick from, to actually pretend to be pitiful in front of them.
If they didn’t say anything, this person might do something even less like a General…
Xue Yan glanced at Jiang Yue. Only then did Jiang Yue ask, “Why are you looking for us?
Shiye had just said that there was an emergency.
With Jiang Yue’s question, Shao Shuting immediately heaved a sigh of relief. He knew that the two little devils were not angry anymore. He knew that the hearts of the two little devils were actually the softest of the bunch.
As long as he lowered his voice a little and looked pitiful, they would definitely not be angry.
Shao Shuting hugged his sword even more, and his squatting posture was even less like a general, but his smile became gentle again. “I’ll get straight to the point. My sister is pregnant. I want you to take care of her.”
His sister?
Wasn’t she the Empress?
Xue Yan frowned.
Why was the Empress pregnant again?
In his previous life, the Empress did not get pregnant the second time. Or was she actually pregnant again in her previous life, but she didn’t give birth successfully, and so the outsiders didn’t know at all. Was that why he never heard about this in his previous life?
Jiang Yue looked at the carriage calmly. So, the Empress was sitting in the carriage?
“I’ve also heard about Jiang Yue’s amazing skills,” Shao Shuting continued. “My brother is suspicious of you. Although I also think that you are a complicated child, I don’t doubt your intentions. I trust you. I’ll feel relieved if I entrusted my sister to you.”
As he spoke, he looked at the carriage with a worried expression.
“Doctor Shen said that her body is too weak and cannot withstand even the slightest jolts. If he did not know that I would send her here, Doctor Shen would probably not agree to let her travel. Just now, I did not dare to let the carriage go fast.
“In fact, we came from Quanping Inn early in the morning and only arrived here just now. You should be able to imagine how slow the carriage was. Doctor Shen also prescribed some medicine for her. She isn’t allowed to eat too much in a day. Otherwise, not only would she not be able to recuperate well, but she would also not be able to keep the child in her stomach. I couldn’t think of any other safe place, so I sent her here.”
After a pause, he said, “I am the Shao Shuting, a General. The name I told you is my real name. You only need to ask around a little and you will know my sister’s identity. I won’t hide it from you. She is the Empress of Da Ling.
Jiang Yue and Xue Yan immediately frowned.
They would rather Shao Shuting not be so honest to them.
Shao Shuting continued, “You don’t have to do anything just because she’s the Empress. I’ve already told my sister that there won’t be so much etiquette. You can just call her Aunt Xiao for now, so it’s casual. My sister is still very easy to get along with, and she likes children very much.. ‘
