Chapter 1 — My Husband Can't, But I'm Pregnant

1Ta Tinh Chi spat out all the wine in his mouth. Mrs. Hou was overjoyed and immediately grabbed my arm: "Really?" I shyly bowed my head, my voice as small as a mosquito calling out: "The doctor has checked his pulse." The Marquis slammed his palm on the table, causing the dishes to vibrate and jingle: "Good!" Joy immediately spread throughout the hall, relatives scrambled to raise their cups and continued to congratulate. Ta Tinh Chi stiffened on the spot again, his face turned pale, and he blurted out: "No way!" The bustling room suddenly fell silent. My eyelashes trembled slightly, tears rolled down, my voice choked up: "Husband... don't you want to accept it?" Ta Tinh Chi clenched his fists, his knuckles turned white, and gritted his teeth. "How can this child be mine? Obviously I..." "Then... then I can just let him go." Mrs. Hau's expression immediately changed, she quickly held my arm, frantically saying: "Can't let go, can't let go! This is my good nephew, how can I let go?" The Marquis was so angry that his beard stood up: "Are you crazy? You don't even need the child anymore?" Ta Tinh Chi stared at me with wide eyes, gritted his teeth, and finally couldn't help but roared: "Who knows if this child is mine or not?" I used the scarf to cover half of my face, crying even harder. "Husband... do you really not want to accept it?" Mrs. Hau's eyes darkened, looking at me suspiciously. "Khuong Thanh Loan, tell me the truth, is this child really Tinh Chi's?" I raised my teary eyes, the tears still not dry: "The doctor said the child is already three months old, if not husband's... then who else could it be?" Ta Tinh Chi's ears turned red. Because he was so embarrassed, he became angry and no longer cared about his face. He blurted out and scolded: "You're talking nonsense!" Mrs. Hou relaxed her face again and muttered: "Three months... isn't that..." She turned her head and stared at Ta Tinh Chi: "What have you done, don't you even know?" Her voice lowered a bit. "Save some face, how can you say this in front of everyone?" The Ta family's relatives looked at each other, everyone understood clearly in their hearts, no one said much anymore, just quietly bowed their heads and drank tea. 2 Three months ago, during a flower feast, Sister A was framed by someone, accidentally drugged, and ended up in a separate room with Ta Tinh Chi. Although nothing happened yet, when she panicked and ran away, she accidentally kicked and dropped a brooch. The queen became angry and sent someone to investigate thoroughly, vowing to find the person who was disrupting the palace. Ta Tinh Chi, wanting to preserve Sister A's reputation and preserve his own life, took the initiative to pull me in, saying that the person in the same room with him that night was me. After we got married, he always treated me politely and distantly, as if there was a layer of cold frost between the two of us. I'm just a concubine of a martial artist. Since childhood, my appearance is not as good as sister A's, my talent is not as good as sister A's. In his eyes, I am just a vulgar martial artist, always swinging swords and spears. He criticized me for being rude, in order to share a room to live in, he even did not hesitate to tarnish his reputation, pretending to be drunk in front of the Marquis and the Marquis, complaining that he had difficulty speaking and showed signs of impotence. Mother-in-law, in order to save face for the Marquis, firmly insisted on telling outsiders that the person could not be me. Because of this, Sister A called me over several times, each time holding my hand, her eyes filled with guilt, saying that if I didn't want to endure this resentment, she would go and ask the Queen to let me separate. I quickly shook my head and waved my hand: "No separation, no separation. Your Majesty is very kind." These words come completely from the bottom of my heart. Vinh An Hau's palace is incredibly rich, but the backyard is extremely spacious, enough for me

dance with swords and spears, draw bows and shoot arrows. Even if you break flowers or any other object, there will always be a servant who will quietly replace it. As for reputation, I never paid attention to it. It's just a floating cloud, how much money is it worth? Sister Ah still doesn't understand why that day, when Ta Tinh Chi publicly slandered me, I not only did not defend myself, but also actively took it upon myself. She doesn't know. One day before the palace banquet, I went to Phap Hoa Pagoda outside the city to offer incense, knelt on a cushion and closed my eyes to pray, asking Buddha to give me a fragrant, soft husband. I sincerely bowed my head three times loudly. When I stood up and went around to the back of the golden Buddha statue, I saw that in the darkness there, suddenly there was a white-faced young soldier hiding. He is truly so beautiful, I just looked at him and half of my soul was lost. But he frowned, his face turned red, his dazed eyes disappeared, it looked like he had been hit with some kind of drug. Seeing me approaching, he staggered and clung to my arm. I have always known how to love flowers and pearls, to be both honest and generous, of course I have to help him cure his addiction. After finishing the matter, I left a piece of jade pendant worn on his body in the palm of his hand, with a complete calculation in my heart. When I return to the palace, I will tell my father that I want to marry him and become my son-in-law. In our family, there are only me and sister A, the two girls. After Sister A became the Crown Princess, her father often worried that the general's palace would not have an heir. One time while drinking, he patted my shoulder and asked: "Loan Nhi, are you recruiting a live-in?" I couldn't even ask. That little wolf's body is soft, her lips are round, her waist is slim, and when she leans limply against my arms, my heart wants to melt. I like him very much. Unexpectedly, before I could tell my father about this, I encountered what happened in the palace.03 Returning to the room, just as I took off my coat to rest, the door was kicked open from the outside. Ta Tinh Chi stood at the door with a face as cold as frost, his eyes burning with anger. The maids stepped forward in panic and tried to stop him, but he coldly waved his hand: "Get out!" The door closed behind me. "Khuong Thanh Loan, you really have no shame!" I leaned against the bedpost, leisurely caressing my belly, looking up at him: "Shameless? Where am I shameless?" "Say!" He gritted his teeth, his finger almost poking straight into my nose. "Who does this wild species belong to?" I tilted my head, an innocent expression appeared on my face: "Isn't it her husband's?" "She—" "Three months." Before, at the palace banquet, you and I had a hard time controlling our love, didn't you say it in front of everyone?" His face turned from red to white, he jumped up in anger: "You're talking nonsense!" I quickly raised a finger to my lips, softly "shushed" and blinked at him. "Ta Tinh Chi, keep your voice down. Everyone in the palace knows you can't do it. At first, you were complaining in front of everyone. Now I'm saving your face, do you still want to slap yourself in the mouth?" His face stiffened and he immediately choked up. "Besides, three months ago, who was the one who got the trick and almost hurt my sister A?" "Now you don't admit it. Do you want to be stabbed?" At first, we made it clear that we were pretending to be married! We'd wait for the storm to pass and then find a chance to separate, but now you're asking me to happily be a father for someone else!

You can say I'm happy being a mother." He punched his chest a few times before calming down: "Who does this child belong to?" I was silent for a moment and then firmly replied: "I don't know." Ta Tinh Chi choked and rolled his eyes: "Don't know? ” He beat his chest a few times before calming down: “Who does this child belong to? I lowered my eyes, a sad look on my face. After that, I also secretly searched for the other person's whereabouts, but there were so many pilgrims in the temple, people came and went, no one noticed where the white-faced young soldier had gone. Perhaps he was a businessman or a scholar from another place. After offering incense, he left, and there was no way to find him again. "Your Highness, if you really don't want to, then let's separate." Ta Tinh Chi was stunned, sat down heavily on the chair, raised his hand to rub his eyebrows, and said dejectedly: "If we could have separated, we would have separated a long time ago." Initially, when the Queen announced the wedding, in front of everyone in the palace, she said very clearly: "If we could separate, we would have separated a long time ago." People who are in love have a hard time controlling themselves, so this palace will be fulfilled for you. The holy order has been given, there must be no separation." Now that it's only been three months since they asked for a divorce, how can the Queen not be angry? Surely she will suspect that we initially colluded to deceive her. He closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, there was only a look of fatigue and resignation in his eyes. After a moment of silence, he suddenly spoke: "If he comes to the door, you must warn me." I was stunned: "Why should I tell you?" Ta Tinh Chi raised his eyes, his thin lips slightly opened: "Deal with him." Ta: …
