Chapter 72 The Emperor has granted you a marriage!
"Whose child is that?"

"Ji Qinqin's cousin, they have been together secretly for a long time, and now Ji Qinqin is almost two months pregnant."

"In that case, Wei Luoyan is cuckolded!"

Shen Jing laughed unkindly.

"Ji Anyu...would you like to see a doctor?" He pulled Ji Anyu up, "There's a pharmacy right in front."

"I told you I'm not pregnant."

"You'd better see a doctor, otherwise I won't be at ease."

Seeing Shen Jing's persistence, Ji Anyu reluctantly put on her veil and went to the pharmacy with Shen Jing.

"Madam, have I seen you before?" The doctor put one hand on Ji Anyu's wrist and stroked his beard with the other.

Ji Anyu didn't want to answer the doctor, worried that the doctor would recognize her by her voice.

She raised her hand and pulled Shen Jing's sleeve. Shen Jing understood and made an unpleasant sound.

"Just treat the disease well and don't ask questions that you shouldn't ask."

The doctor smiled awkwardly and said, "Okay, I made a mistake."

He saw that the young man in front of him had a distinguished appearance and temperament, and was probably not from an ordinary family. The wife he brought with him was afraid to see anyone, so he guessed that the wife was the young man's mistress.

"Sir, there is nothing wrong with Madam's health."

"She's not pregnant?"

"No."

Ji Anyu looked at Shen Jing and blinked, and then she said that she was not pregnant.

She walked out of the pharmacy and turned around to see Shen Jing walking behind her with his head slightly lowered.

"What's wrong? Are you unhappy?"

Shen Jing touched his cheek and asked, "Is it obvious?"

He turned his head away guiltily, "You're wrong, I'm in a very good mood."

"Oh." Ji Anyu was too lazy to expose Shen Jing. She didn't expect that Shen Jing actually liked children.

Then what she asked for would be easy to accomplish. After they got married, Shen Jing would probably cooperate with her in having a baby.

"You stole my purse, give it back to me!"

A handsome scholar with a fair face tightly grasped the purse in the man's hand.

"Get out of the way, this is obviously my purse." The man showed his yellow teeth.

"You are talking nonsense. You are obviously a thief. This is my purse."

Deng Qiqi was furious. He had just arrived in Beijing and encountered a thief. The thief took advantage of the fact that he was from another place and openly bullied him.

Ji Anyu walked forward to watch the fun, and after seeing the scholar's appearance clearly, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.

"Sir, you said the purse is yours, but do you have any evidence?"

Deng Qiqi's eyes flickered, his ears turned red, and he said embarrassedly.

"The purse was given to me by my sweetheart, and it has my sweetheart's words embroidered inside."

Seeing this, the thief kicked Deng Qiqi's vitals while he was not paying attention.

Deng Qiqi was in so much pain that he couldn't stand and fell to the ground.

"Come here, catch the thief!" Ji Anyu immediately ordered the guards to arrest the man.

"Miss Ji Er, you are not someone who meddles in other people's affairs, why are you helping him?"

Shen Jing looked at Ji Anyu in confusion, and when he saw Ji Anyu's eyes on Deng Qiqi's face, his heart skipped a beat.

I wonder if Ji Anyu is attracted to this pretty boy?

The next second he saw Ji Anyu move to Deng Qiqi's side, then squatted down and looked at Deng Qiqi gently.

"Sir, are you okay? Can you stand up? Do you want me to help you to the pharmacy to see a doctor?"

Deng Qiqi was in so much pain that he nodded quickly. He didn't know if that part of his body could still be used.

Hearing the clear voice of the woman in the veil in front of him, who sounded like a teenage girl, he smiled with difficulty.

"Thank you, young lady. I am Deng Qiqi." "Mr. Deng, you're welcome. It's just a small favor." Ji Anyu stood up, with no emotion in her eyes.

The guard helped Deng Qiqi up with an expressionless face.

Deng Qiqi's forehead was covered in sweat. He felt pain every time he took a step, and sometimes he suppressed a few cries of pain.

He smiled awkwardly at Ji Anyu, and accidentally met Shen Jing's dangerous and deep eyes, and couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.

Seeing that Shen Jing was always with Ji Anyu, Deng Qiqi guessed that they knew each other and smiled politely at Shen Jing. Unexpectedly, Shen Jing showed his dissatisfaction visibly with his eyes.

Deng Qiqi was stunned for a moment, his eyes flickered between Ji Anyu and Shen Jing, and he immediately understood.

He was a man, and had someone he loved before, so he understood what Shen Jing meant at this moment.

The doctor examined Deng Qiqi's injuries, while Ji Anyu and Shen Jing stood outside the house waiting.

"Ji Anyu, why did you save him?" Shen Jing's tone was filled with jealousy.

Ji Anyu looked into the distance and said, "Of course I saved him because he is useful."

"What's the use?" Shen Jing's eyes were fixed on Ji Anyu's face.

Ji Anyu lowered his eyes, wondering how to answer Shen Jing.

At this time, the guard who caught the thief took the purse and handed it to Ji Anyu with both hands.

Ji Anyu opened her purse and saw that there was indeed a word "Qin" embroidered inside.

"When I first saw Master Deng, I thought he looked a lot like my second aunt. Look at the words in the purse. They're my sister, Ji Qinqin."

"So this purse was embroidered by Ji Qinqin?"

"Yes." Ji Anyu tightened her purse and waved to the guard to give it to Deng Qiqi.

Shen Jing followed the guard's gaze until the guard walked into the room, then he turned to look at Ji Anyu.

"That scholar is Ji Qinqin's cousin?"

"Yeah." Ji Anyu nodded with a smile.

I don’t know whether Ji Qinqin told Deng Qiqi about her pregnancy. Judging from the way Ji Qinqin secretly had the abortion, she probably didn’t tell him.

Deng Qiqi's family background was not as good as the Duke's. Both his parents were businessmen. His father fell into the sea and died, and his mother died of illness.

Not long after, the house was robbed and blood was everywhere. Deng Qiqi happened to go out to find Ji Qinqin, and thus they were saved from danger.

Deng Qiqi now relies on Ji Qinqin's mother for support for his food, clothing, housing and transportation. Ji Qinqin's parents have no sons, so they raise Deng Qiqi as their own son.

Ji Anyu couldn't help but chuckle. If his second uncle and second aunt knew that Deng Qiqi, whom they regarded as their own son, had secretly tricked Ji Qinqin into sleeping, would they be so angry that they would die?

When Shen Jing saw Ji Anyu's nonchalant look, he felt relieved. As long as she didn't fall for the scholar, it was good.

Zhusha suddenly walked up to Shen Jing and said, "My Lord, there's a message from the palace that the Emperor has issued an imperial decree and the eunuchs have come to Prince Zhong's Palace and are waiting for you to return."

What does the emperor want him to do?
Shen Jing was reluctant to go back to receive the imperial edict. He saw the candied haws on the street out of the corner of his eye. Just as he took a step, he heard Ji Anyu's voice.

"Prince Shen, see you some other day when you are free."

Shen Jing felt complicated and bitter, he just wanted to stay with Ji Anyu for a while longer.

"Miss!"

Qiao Xin ran over panting, "Finally found the lady." She patted her chest and took a breath.

"What happened?" Ji Anyu frowned slightly.

"The eunuchs from the palace have come to Ji's house. The emperor has granted you a marriage!"

"A granted marriage?" Ji Anyu and Shen Jing asked in surprise at the same time.

After they were surprised, they looked at each other and then looked at Qiao Xin tacitly.

Once again, they said in unison, "With whom?"

"I don't know. The decree has not been announced yet. Miss, please go back quickly."

Ji Anyu nodded seriously, "Prince Shen, tell..."

"I will go with you!"

Shen Jing was extremely anxious and secretly cursed the emperor for issuing the decree at random. After he saw who the marriage partner was, he would go to the palace to ask the emperor to revoke the decree.
