Every intimate moment he had with Princess Yongning, she had taken contraceptive medicine. But now, to have become pregnant, this was no small matter!
"I don't know," Princess Yongning shook her head and said, "Maybe the contraceptive medicine isn't completely foolproof... By the time I realized, it was already too late."
The more she spoke, the more Shen Yurong doubted that Princess Yongning had done this intentionally, wanting to use her pregnancy to force him into marriage. But he had not anticipated that in the end, Emperor Hongxiao would decree her marriage to Li Xian, which truly sent him into a panic.
"What do you plan to do now?" Shen Yurong asked.
"What do you mean, 'what do I plan to do'?" Princess Yongning looked at him blankly until she saw the chill in Shen Yurong's eyes. A shiver went through her, and she suddenly understood. "You can't possibly be thinking of making me get rid of this child!"
