Chapter 56 Whose child is it?
After a hearty meal, the two continued on their way, but Duotu felt something was wrong with his body. He stopped, leaning against a tree, panting, and looking at Sang Luo in front of him with a hard-to-speak expression.
"...Luoluo, what are those things you gave me to eat?"
"Roasted venison. Didn't you catch that deer yourself? Oh, yes, there's also some cold jellyfish. I caught them in the sea. They tasted good, so I raised some and put them in the space. What? Do you want to eat more?" Sang Luo also stopped and looked back at him.
He walked forward quickly and said, "Take it out and let me see it."
Sang Luo took out a large basin of jellyfish from the space.
It was still alive, swimming around in the basin, with a faint pink hue all over its body. It was very beautiful.
Duotu's face turned redder and his Adam's apple rolled violently. "I actually forgot that this period of time is the mating season for these sea beasts. They will produce a large amount of aphrodisiacs in their bodies. Eating their meat may even affect orcs..."
"Ah?" Sang Luo's hands trembled in astonishment, "But I'm fine."
"This aphrodisiac is only effective in males."
"Then, what should we do?"
"Untie her for me." He picked her up by the waist. There was a cave in front of them. Sang Luo blushed and punched him lightly on the chest, saying angrily, "I don't want to be in the wild!"
The next second, there was a flash of white light, and the two returned to the palace with carved beams and painted buildings, and gorgeous and luxurious decoration, just like the Louvre Palace.
The servants were sent away.
Duotu hurriedly carried her into the bedroom and placed her on the large bed with golden goose down bedding. He said in a low voice, "Are you ready?"
He supported one hand in front of her and gently stroked her cheek, neck, collarbone... These slender, hot hands were not as pampered as imagined, and were covered with a thin layer of calluses.
It falls on the skin, causing a shudder.
His ears were already uncontrollably red. Sang Luo lowered his head and glanced somewhere. The man was already aroused...
She stretched out her soft arms, gently clasped the man's neck, and gently kissed his sexy Adam's apple. Her face flushed, and she said softly, "Then you have to be gentle, I'm afraid of pain~"
Duotu hooked his hand on her suspenders, undressed her, and bent down to kiss her.
She ate one beast crystal after another for free, just enough to barely endure the all-night pleasure with him.
Afterwards, Duotu hugged Sang Luo, who was almost as soft as mud, and kissed her again and again. His low and lazy voice was full of unstoppable joy, "I really want your whole body to be stained with my scent..."
Sang Luo snuggled in his arms and soon fell into a deep sleep.
Duotu also held her and took a light sleep for a while.
Someone outside the hall reported something. He looked at the beautiful woman in his arms, kissed her on the forehead, carefully covered her with the quilt, then stood up, put on his clothes, and went out.
Helu, who was dressed in military uniform, had been waiting outside for a long time. He glanced at the man whose whole body and even his hair revealed joy, and just as he was about to take a sneak peek into the house, he was blocked by the man.
"I see you don't want this newly promoted rank anymore."
"Hehe, your highness is magnanimous!"
Knowing that Duotu was in a good mood and didn't bother to argue with him, Helu quickly handed over a file, "This is the list of nobles that Prince Brent has secretly communicated with. Your Highness, please take a look..."
……
After Sang Luo woke up, the servants prepared meals in advance. Duotu was not there. He was always very busy and had left the palace long ago.
Since that incident, the burden of the entire Alans Empire has been on his shoulders. The open and covert forces targeting him have exhausted him. If she hadn't left unexpectedly last time, he might have held the coronation ceremony long ago, but because of her, he postponed it again and again. He even wasted the best opportunity to wipe out the old party, allowing those aristocratic old faction to become more rampant.
Sang Luo only learned these secrets when chatting with the servants.
Duotu sent a waiter to serve, his name was A'man, a round-headed and sly guinea pig orc, who was quick and efficient at his work.
"Your Highness has sent another box of treasures presented by another country. Is this the nth time this month?" Ah Man smiled and came in from the door carrying a large box.
It is filled with all kinds of agates, jade gems, rare treasures, natural treasures, cloths woven with snow silk, gorgeous clothes woven with brocade satin, and various precious materials, handmade jewelry earrings and bracelets... It's dazzling, and any one of them can be sold at a sky-high price in the market.
The Alans Empire had just experienced a huge change in power, and many nearby small countries wanted to come and inquire about the news or offer their loyalty, so they sent a lot of rare treasures. Duotu was basically sent to Sang Luo intact.
Sang Luo picked out a few pieces she liked to keep, and picked out some jewelry and treasures to give to the servants. She asked A Man to put the rest in the utility room, which was almost half full.
No matter how busy Duotu was during the day, he would still come to see her at night.
On the surface, he brought Sang Luo into the palace, but he did not arrange a palace for her elsewhere, and let her live directly in his bedroom.
The two of them have been having a pretty ridiculous night these days...
After this incident, Duotu's temperament has undergone a complete change. Compared with the cynical dandy boy he used to be, he is now much more mature and stable. Rather than a prince, he looks more like a future monarch.
After a night of pleasure, she was so tired that she didn't want to move at all. She secretly sighed that this man could handle official business during the day and could work all night without stopping. His energy was really terrifying.
After it was over, Duotu touched Sang Luo's slightly round waist and said with a silly smile, "Is your belly a little big?"
He heard from Ah Man recently that Sang Luo was eating more and more. The boxes of treasures and jewelry he sent to him were hardly touched, but most of the rare treasures were eaten up, and half of the box of animal crystals was also eaten up.
Duotu thought of a possibility and blushed with excitement, "Luoluo, are we going to have a baby? Are you in your horny period this month?"
"Not yet." Sang Luo put her hand on his big hand and touched her belly. Is it so fast?
Thinking of the man's terrifying energy in bed, she swallowed a few times in fear. Maybe it was true.
He has been sowing seeds very hard these days!
I wish she could get pregnant on the first day!
Duotu was so excited that he couldn't sleep the whole night. Before dawn the next day, he carried her to the hospital and waited anxiously outside the room, pacing back and forth.
Soon, a tall and thin witch doctor came out to announce the good news.
"Congratulations, Your Highness. Your wife has been pregnant for more than a month. You should exercise more restraint during this period. I will prescribe some medicine..."
When Duotu heard the word "pregnant", her brows raised with joy, but when she heard the next "more than a month", her face darkened.
He and her had their first time only half a month ago. An orphan? The time didn't match.
Before Sang Luo received the diagnosis results, Duotu took her back to the palace.
Along the way, his face was as black as the bottom of a pot.
"Not pregnant?" Sang Luo looked at him.
He said coldly, "Pregnant!"
"Then why are you unhappy?"
“…You have to ask yourself!”
As soon as Duotu returned to the bedroom, he was so angry that he bit her for a long time, and then he relaxed and asked anxiously, "Whose child are you pregnant with?"
"what?"
"She went out alone, just for a walk, and came back with a baby in her belly?" "...I know you are very anxious, but calm down first." Sang Luo took the diagnosis report he handed over, held her forehead for a long time, and then confirmed that she was pregnant.
But this child doesn’t look like he belongs to Duotu, so it can only be Aze’s, as the timing matches.
Sang Luo felt complicated...
This child came at a really bad time.
She was planning to let go of that chance encounter.
"Well, what should I do now that I'm pregnant? If you don't want to keep the baby, then I can only..."
"I'll raise him!" Duotu quickly covered her mouth to stop her from saying those unlucky words.
"You are quite open-minded~" Sang Luo smiled sweetly, sat on his slender and strong thighs, put her hands around his neck, and kissed him on the lips. His breathing became heavy, and most of his energy was consumed by his kidneys.
After working so hard for so long, the child ends up being someone else's. Which man can bear this?
"Whose child is this?" Duotu put his arms around her waist, his charming green eyes fixed on Sang Luo, fearing that she would utter another lie from her little mouth.
"A deep-sea mermaid."
"You really did find another male!"
Seeing that he was about to get angry, Sang Luo quickly shut up and stroked his chest.
After thinking for a while, he whispered again, "He's dead."
Duotu's frown relaxed and he became happy again, "I will treat it as my own child!"
It doesn’t matter if her biological father is dead. As long as the child comes out of her belly, it is naturally his child.
"But after giving birth to this baby, when your body recovers, you must give me a pure-blood offspring."
"The last time I gave birth to a pure-blood child, it might have been an accident. I may not be able to give birth to a pure-blood child every time. If I give birth to a child with poor blood, would you abandon your wife and children?"
"As long as it's your child and mine, I don't care about bloodline."
A child with his bloodline will not be too bad, and will definitely be stronger than ordinary orcs. At worst, he can just spend more money on rare treasures, because his father went through the same thing anyway.
Duotu took time out every day to accompany her. In the third month, Sang Luo's belly had become noticeably bigger.
The last time she was pregnant, Caesar was worried about her health, so he aborted the baby early.
Sang Luo didn’t know how long she would be pregnant with this baby. Her recent appetite even exceeded that of her previous baby, which made her feel a little scared.
Duotu held her in the bed, touched her increasingly round belly, and frowned. Are the talents of mermaid offspring so strong?
He specially found two old female witch doctors from the Imperial Hospital to take personal care of Sang Luo. The national treasury had accumulated treasures that had lasted for hundreds or even thousands of years, and he took out all of them for Sang Luo to eat.
The biggest advantage of this pregnancy compared to the previous one is that there is no shortage of crystals.
As a member of the imperial family, Duotu has the most abundant thing in the form of crystals. Her family is so wealthy that she doesn’t have to worry about her baby going hungry this time!
Sang Luo returned to her daily routine of eating and sleeping. She changed into comfortable, loose-fitting white cotton maternity clothes. She looked in the mirror and thought of her firstborn babies. She hadn't even seen what they looked like when they hatched... and they were buried in the sea of fire along with their father...
Her heart ached again, and she quickly calmed herself down and rubbed her belly comfortingly.
This time, she would definitely take good care of them herself and would not let anything happen to the children again.
Just think of it as... leaving a descendant for Aze.
She opened the window to let in some fresh air and saw layers of guards surrounding the palace, making it impossible to get in or out.
Ah Man finished sweeping the floor and came over. "The Crown Princess hasn't been out of the palace much these days, so I'm afraid you don't know that another female disappeared in the city a few days ago. Your Highness suspects that the Zerg are behind it again. He is worried about the safety of the Crown Princess, so he has been protecting her very closely during this period!"
Duotu had not yet held a formal marriage ceremony with her, but everyone in the palace knew that she was pregnant with the prince's child, and she was privately addressed as the prince's consort.
"Boom——" An explosion suddenly came from a palace somewhere.
Many guards rushed over to check the situation.
Ah Man also went there.
Sang Luo did not go out, but also released his mental power. He saw that they walked to a palace. Not far away was the corpse of an orc. A wisp of black smoke soon emerged from the corpse, and it turned into a Zerg.
Ah Man came back soon.
"What's going on?" Sang Luo asked him.
Ah Man said, "Your Highness recruited a group of talented people a few days ago. They can extract the unique aura from the Zerg, mark them, and set up a formation... This method can be used to see through their disguises and isolate most of the Zerg! The Zerg that sneaked into the palace just now accidentally exposed its aura and was wiped out by the formation."
"It can't isolate all Zerg?"
"According to the information we have so far, there are many different racial divisions within the Zerg. If we can get more Zerg aura specimens, the array will cover a larger area. If we can stop all the Zerg in time, we won't have to worry about females being captured anymore!"
This is a good idea, but collecting Zerg breath specimens is a troublesome matter. Sang Luo held her belly and sat on the armchair to rest. An idea suddenly occurred to her, "A pregnant female means extremely high fertility. What's more, I'm pregnant with the offspring of a natural king beast. Those Zerg should be very interested in me. Otherwise, let me go out for a walk? Send some people to follow me."
"If you dare to run around again, I will be the first one to catch you!" Duotu came in, looking displeased.
"This Zerg is coming for me." She took a sip of milk.
"Yes." Duotu held her hand tightly. "I sent an envoy to inform the city lords of the nearby sea areas that I would also sell this formation to them. I would do them a favor and also improve the trade relationship with the sea people."
Sang Luo smiled, "You are quite smart~"
Duotu also smiled, peeled a grape and fed it to her.
Biting the sweet and sour juice, he leaned over and kissed it...
Ah Man and several other servants in the palace quickly retreated.
Sang Luo pushed him away with a red face, "Stop it."
Duotu sat beside her and peeled a full plate of fruit for her until someone called him from outside the hall. He then gave her a few more instructions before leaving.
Sang Luo had just picked up a piece of sour orange to eat when his hand paused.
She released her mental power.
Duotu left the palace and walked into a side hall. A tall and straight man in a black robe was waiting for him. He bowed and said, "Your Highness, long time no see."
