Chapter 481 A Child Born in Chaotic Times
Sikong Jin subconsciously covered her mouth, put down her chopsticks, and pressed down on her churning chest with one hand.
"What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell? Your face looks so pale and pale."
Upon seeing this, Di Beizun's handsome brows immediately furrowed, and a hint of worry appeared in his unfathomable black eyes. He quickly stepped forward, supporting her as she leaned to one side, while busy pouring water with his other hand.
Sikong Jin raised her hand slightly, took a deep breath, and paused for a moment in the light in her beautiful eyes, as if she suddenly thought of something. Her whole body stiffened slightly, and then, as if she wanted to verify or prove something, she picked up her chopsticks again, picked up the food in the bowl, and brought it to her mouth.
"Ugh—" The nausea struck again, even stronger than before. She subconsciously pushed Di Beizun away, grabbed the table, and dry-heaved. Her face turned even paler, and she looked incredulous.
"Ajin! What's wrong?"
Di Beizun's expression darkened slightly. He quickly pulled her into his arms, his eyes filled with even more worry. "Where do you feel unwell? Let me see!"
Before Sikong Jin could react, he grabbed her wrist. Sikong Jin was shocked and instinctively tried to slap away his long fingers. However, he reacted even faster, swiftly grabbing her wrist and pulling her tightly into his arms. His long fingertips slipped through her sleeve and rested on her wrist, beginning to carefully take her pulse.
"Let go of me... let go... why are you hugging me so tightly!"
Sikong Jin struggled for a moment, then shouted angrily.
"do not move!"
Di Beizun gave a low shout, his irresistible authority startling her, and she immediately stopped what she was doing.
Emperor Beizun was still taking her pulse when, after a moment, he seemed to stiffen slightly. Then, a dazzling and alluring smile suddenly appeared on his noble and aloof face. He released Sikong Jin's wrist, his hands trembling slightly as he grasped her shoulders. Looking down at her chest, his deep voice held an uncontrollable ecstasy, and his deep eyes were filled with tenderness—"Ajin, Ajin... it's a happy pulse... you're carrying my child!"
His excited voice came through, filled with joy, and his hands tightened around her shoulders, making Sikong Jin feel a sharp pain.
Sikong Jin was also shocked, momentarily dazed. After a while, she reached out and pressed her hand against her barely flat stomach, her fair and beautiful face showing a mixture of joy and frustration. After an unknown amount of time, she finally raised her hand to cover her face in despair, wailing through gritted teeth, "As expected… the safety measures weren't done properly… I, Sikong Jin's mother, am pregnant out of wedlock? This couldn't be more inconvenient! Emperor Beizun, I'm not even twenty yet! No! Are you sure it's not a misdiagnosis? How could I possibly be a mother? This is impossible…"
Sikong Jin had actually been acting a bit strange these past two days, but she didn't dare show it to herself because she was worried about this outcome. Now that she saw it, it was exactly what she feared!
Come to think of it, Di Beizun is so powerful, and he always pretends to be aloof and deep to seduce Sikong Jin. Sikong Jin herself has extremely weak willpower towards him. As soon as he flirts with her, she can't resist. Then, it's common for him to take advantage of her and leave her. What's worse, Sikong Jin didn't plan to have a child so soon, but she forgot to deal with the aftermath. So, as expected, it's over. She finally got pregnant!
"It's wonderful that you're pregnant, Ajin! I'll immediately issue an imperial decree for you to marry me with a grand procession of red bridal procession. Father and Mother will be overjoyed. I'll issue an order to the Ministry of Rites right now, instructing them to immediately arrange our wedding. I will grant a general amnesty and let the whole world celebrate!"
"Sigh, alright! What's the rush! Things here aren't even settled yet, what's the point of arranging a wedding! This child really came at the worst possible time, only a little over a month old, otherwise..."
"If you don't want my child, I'll kill you!"
Before Sikong Jin could finish speaking, Di Beizun's face turned cold as he stared at her.
Sikong Jin glared at him coldly and said in a cold voice, "You can't expect anything good to come out of a dog's mouth! Did I say I didn't want it? I'm not the kind of woman who has the guts to play around but not the guts to have children! What I mean is, this little thing is only a little over a month old, it's still very small, and we can't tell yet. It will probably take several more months before it becomes obvious. So we must take over Dayong and settle things here in these few months, otherwise I won't be able to go to Dazhou with you."
"I immediately order the Prince of Yi to quickly take over the western part of Dayong. With the help of Feng Yang, Dayong must be taken over within a month. If they do not surrender, we will fight them until they submit."
Hearing her words, Di Beizun breathed a sigh of relief, thought for a moment, and immediately said this.
"Didn't we agree to cooperate with Lord Ji and the others?"
"I can't wait that long. You should focus on your pregnancy. I'll take care of everything else. We won't play games with them anymore. We must end this war as soon as possible and return to the capital of Great Zhou before the new year so we can get married!"
His tone was domineering and irresistible, and he was unusually anxious.
Lord Sikong couldn't help but feel a headache coming on. He raised his hand to rub his forehead and sighed inwardly—she knew it!
This tyrant is once again plotting to use his iron-fisted and cruel methods to cleanse and annihilate the entire Dayong Dynasty.
"You have to wait, whether you like it or not! Otherwise, you can forget about marrying me. If you want to get married, you'll have to consider my wishes, unless you do the wedding ceremony yourself."
"Do you believe I can tie you up and drag you into the wedding hall?"
Di Beizun frowned and stared at her coldly.
"If you don't want to see me running away with my baby in front of you, you can try! Anyway, I think being a bandit chief is much more interesting than your so-called empress."
"Ah Jin, you're just taking advantage of the fact that I won't dare to do anything to you, aren't you!"
"Yes!"
"you……"
Emperor Beizun was so angry at her that he angrily flung his sleeve.
Sikong Jin then glanced at him. "Now you know this brat came at the worst possible time, right?"
"What do you mean 'not the right time'! I think it's just the right time!"
"In these extraordinary times, I originally wanted to settle down before making proper plans, but this has come so suddenly, without my any preparation. And, in this state, how can I possibly sleep with you..."
"Once the prince is born, you can sleep with him however you like!"
"Disgusting! You haven't learned a single thing from me, that I am charming without being vulgar!"
"A Jin!"
The tense and somber atmosphere was quickly dispelled by Sikong Jin's few words.
