PREGNANT BEFORE THE ROYAL MARRIAGE

Chapter 886: Chapter 886: There’s Still a Chance for Salvation_1

Chunlai grumbled, “Amongst the girls in our household, our Madam valued you the most, personally teaching you to read and write. Don’t flaunt your knowledge or else we will all die of jealousy.”

Xiachu giggled in response.

All of these girls were a bit older than Jiang Ning.

When Lin Zizi was pregnant and the Imperial Physician diagnosed the baby as a girl, Jiang Ruobai and Lin Zizi joyfully chose four newborn girls from their servants’ families. They asked the families to raise them well as they were intended to be companions for their legitimate daughter in the future.

Jiang Ruobai had a keen eye, indeed the four girls grew up beautifully, particularly Xiachu, who was clever and composed, and greatly liked by Lin Zizi.

Later, their rightful daughter went missing. Even when Lin Zizi was devastated and mentally unstable, she still treated these girls, prepared for her daughter, very well.

When Jiang Ning returned, these girls naturally became her companions.

Thus, all the effort put into raising them had not been in vain.

From birth, these four girls were cultivated with the aim of being companions to the legitimate daughter. The words ‘Seventh Miss’ filled their lives as they grew up.

As a result, they thought of the Seventh Miss in their hearts and spoke of the Seventh Miss with their words.

If there were anyone in this world who were truly loyal to Jiang Ning, these four girls would undoubtedly be at the top of the list.

They couldn’t care less about who sent Gufeng and Gucheng, as long as it did not affect the Seventh Miss, they didn’t care.

The Princess Consort, being surrounded by these servant girls, wished she could herself be a real woman, so she could always stay by the Seventh Miss’ side, especially when Gufeng was sent away.

For the following three days, every time Gucheng trained Jiang Ning in martial arts, Gufeng would squat aside, following inexorably, and grumble, “What’s the use of these fancy techniques… I could teach those too.”

Finally, Jiang Ning couldn’t take it anymore and temporarily had him serve Wenzan in the Elegance Palace.

After three days of martial arts training, Jiang Ning, massaging her aching arms and legs, seemed disheartened, “I really don’t have the talent for martial arts, I’m useless.”

Gucheng, standing calmly by her side, watching her sitting on the ground catching her breath, her forehead beaded with sweat, replied softly, “Seventh Miss, don’t belittle yourself. Perhaps, I am not a good teacher.”

Jiang Ning huffed, “You don’t have to be so modest. I heard that since you were ten years old, you were in charge of training the Shadow Guard.”

“The general was busy.”

“Ah.” Jiang Ning pushed herself to her feet with the help of a tree, her arms so sore she could barely lift them, “Gucheng, can I take a couple days’ break before I continue practicing?”

“Don’t bother practicing anymore.” Gucheng said.

“Ah? Don’t give up on me. I think I can still be saved.”

“This, for you.”

Gucheng handed her a small, delicate protective bracelet, “For self-defense, use this.”

Jiang Ning took it, examined it, wore it on her right wrist and showed it to him, “So, like this?”

“Yes, like that.”

Gucheng adjusted the bracelet for her, slowly advising, “This hand, in the future, refrain from wearing any bangles.”

“How should I use it for self-defense?”

“Inside, there are ten poison needles.”

“Here?” Jiang Ning lifted her wrist, shocked, “Is it safe for me to carry this around my child?”

“As long as you don’t release this strap, it won’t fire.”

Gucheng explained carefully. His speech was sometimes stammering, very slow.

Jiang Ning listened patiently, all the way through.

When it came to personal security, it was not a matter to be taken lightly.
