However, some envoys immediately understood a bit.
Only to hear the envoy from the Wufeng Kingdom laugh and say, “I’ve heard that the King of Xiyun and the Queen of Xiyun share deep affection, it seems the rumors are true.”
Those envoys who didn’t understand before now had some clarity. So, it was that Xiao Changyi and An Jing have a good relationship.
When An Jing was carefully helped into the hall by Xiao Changyi, afraid she might fall or bump into something, all the envoys could think was: This isn’t just a good relationship, the King of Xiyun is completely a slave to his wife!
However, despite the King of Xiyun’s demeanor, he still maintained the imposing aura of a king, preventing them from daring to belittle or mock him even slightly.
Dongfang Tianyang’s gaze was fixed on An Jing the moment she entered.
Having gone through the baptism of war, An Jing seemed even more spirited than when he last saw her, coupled with her current pregnancy, she possessed an indescribable yet extremely magnetic charm. Were it not for Dongfang Tianyang’s strong self-control, he would be unable to take his eyes off An Jing.
Finally seeing the person who had been on his mind, his journey to Xiyun was not in vain.
His heart pounded wildly for her.
This was the first time Dongfang Tianyang’s heart had ever raced like this for a woman. It was apparent that he was truly infatuated with An Jing.
Feeling the rapid heartbeat, and the almost maddening jealousy stirred by Xiao Changyi standing beside An Jing, it motivated Dongfang Tianyang, making him even more determined to claim An Jing as his own.
He may not have the ability now, but in the future… the future… he must make An Jing his!
Dongfang Tianyang vowed in his heart.
Dongfang Tianyang concealed his emotions so well that Xiao Changyi did not notice anything amiss. He only continued to carefully escort An Jing to the jade steps, seating her at the same table with him. The palace maids and eunuchs, with keen insight, had already added an extra set of tableware to where he sat.
An Jing was called to the hall by Xiao Changyi. She originally didn’t want Xiao Changyi to support her, but ever since her belly began to show, wherever Xiao Changyi went, he would support her; merely holding her hand didn’t suffice for his peace of mind. Only by holding her could he feel at ease, so An Jing let him assist her.
Once settled, An Jing courteously smiled at the envoys and said, “Honorable envoys, I could not celebrate with you as I am pregnant and inconvenienced; I seek your understanding.”
The envoys immediately clasped their hands with a smile and said, “Your Majesty, you honor us; it should be us who seek your understanding. Now that we’ve seen you, it’s clear you are truly a heroine among women, unlike the ordinary.”
Having heard many flattering formalities, An Jing was accustomed to them. Moreover, sometimes such words needed to be spoken, so she did not expose the envoys, only smiling politely without saying more.
Xiao Changyi then picked some of An Jing’s favorite dishes and placed them in her bowl, urging her to eat. The amount wasn’t much, as An Jing needed to eat small and frequent meals due to her pregnancy. Clearly, Xiao Changyi was fully aware of all the precautions needed during her pregnancy.
Seeing the food in her bowl, An Jing first gave Xiao Changyi a smile full of affection, then picked up her chopsticks and slowly started eating.
Unexpectedly glancing up, she met the gaze of Dongfang Tianyang. She was momentarily stunned but then calmly and courteously smiled and said, “Prince Tianyang, you are on a mission to Xiyun again this time.”
