Quick Transmigration: The Rise of a Favored Concubine

Chapter 172 Demon Lord × Flower Fairy 10

"Crabapple, peach blossom, move aside." Peony's tone was slightly somber: "I'll only be out for a short while."

“No…” Begonia and Peach Blossom shook their heads firmly: “Prince Yuan will be angry.”

"He's not here, he won't know." Peony knew that he had been coming home very late at night and leaving very early in the morning these past few days.

"Princess, please don't make things difficult for us servants," Haitang said unwaveringly.

Peony persisted, "I want to go back and see how the other flowers are doing?"

“I’ve gone to see her every day, and she’s growing very well,” Peach Blossom replied.

peony:"……"

"The weather is nice today, why don't you come with me for a walk, otherwise I'll feel unwell," Peony suggested, taking a different approach.

"This……"

Did the Prince of Yuan say I couldn't go out for a walk?

"It seems not..."

"Then there isn't any. Let's go." Peony walked outside.

The crabapple and peach blossoms gritted their teeth and had no choice but to follow behind.

Upon emerging, Peony looked at the gloomy Demon Realm and felt utterly helpless. She thought it would have been better not to come out at all; the place was too oppressive.

Let's go back and admire the flowers; it's been quite a while since I've seen them.

"Not bad, there will be a reward later." Peony returned to the Phantom Palace and looked at the beautiful flowers, feeling happy.

"Thank you, Princess! Thank you, Demon Consort! Thank you, Consort Dan!" Begonia and Peach Blossom cheered.

“You naughty girls…” Peony scolded them, “You’re getting more and more unruly.”

Begonia and Peach Blossom smiled secretly; as long as the princess was happy, they were willing to do anything.

Peony picked a few of the best-blooming peonies and brought them back to the Demon God's Temple, hoping they would add a touch of brightness.

To avoid feeling suffocated by the lifeless atmosphere all day long.

"Princess, let's go back. What if King Yuan returns and finds you're not here..." Haitang whispered.

Peony, holding her flowers, agreed with her: "Let's go." When King Yuan got angry, no one could stand it.

Begonia and Peach Blossom supported her on either side, saying, "Princess, please take it easy."

"understood……"

"Where are you going, Sister Danfei?" Luo Li finally caught up with her as she left the Demon God's Palace.

Seeing Danfei's belly bulge with her own eyes, Luo Li's eyes turned sinister once again, but she quickly suppressed it.

"Peony greets the Queen..."

"Get up." Luo Li's gaze fell on her belly, which was already slightly protruding.

"Why did you come out, little sister?" Luo Li asked with a light laugh. "I haven't congratulated you yet."

Consort Dan has always lived in the Demon God Palace and rarely comes out, so it's rare to see her today.

Peony gently protected her belly: "Your Majesty, you are too kind. It is because I am not feeling well that I have not been able to come and pay my respects to Your Majesty. I beg Your Majesty's forgiveness..."

"Sister, please don't say that. You are a hero of the Demon Realm, carrying the child of the Abyss King. I should be thanking you. This child will call me Mother after he is born."

Luo Li successfully saw the grievance, disappointment, and resentment on Mudan's face, which made her feel slightly better.

“What the Queen said is true…” Peony said softly, biting her lip.

"Your Majesty, it's time for our princess to take her medicine. May we return first?" Haitang mustered her courage, though her voice trembled slightly.

The queen spoke as if it were a casual conversation, but the meaning behind her words was rather sharp.

The princess could not withstand any kind of stimulation.

"What's wrong with my sister? She's pregnant, how can she take medicine?"

"It's just some medicine to prevent miscarriage."

The queen clearly had no intention of letting her go.

“You must be tired after standing for so long, why don’t you go sit over there?”

After Luo Li finished speaking, she turned around and walked into the pavilion first.

“Princess…” Haitang and Taohua said worriedly.

Peony shook her head, indicating that they should not worry. In the past, she would not have been so humble, but now she was pregnant and her spiritual power was not as strong as before.

She should be more careful.

"Sister, sit down quickly." Luo Li watched as she carefully stroked her belly, a plan flashing in her eyes.

If Consort Dan knew that Prince Yuan was going to attack their Flower Realm, she would be in a very sorry state. Wouldn't her appearance be quite amusing?

Peony sat down carefully.

"My sister is indeed from the Flower Realm; even the flowers she cultivates are different from those elsewhere." Seeing her uneasy appearance, Luo Li felt even more smug.

There are many flowers in the demon realm, but they are not as vibrant and beautiful as those in the flower realm.

"Your Majesty flatters me..." Peony said softly.

Luo Li had finally managed to catch her out of the Demon God's Palace, so naturally she wouldn't let her go easily. She talked about everything under the sun, from east to west, from heaven to earth, until her mouth was dry, but she still showed no intention of leaving.

"Your Majesty, Peony is feeling unwell and would like to return home first."

So much time has passed, and Prince Yuan will be back soon. If he finds her gone, Haitang and Taohua will inevitably be punished.

"Oh dear, look at me, I don't have anyone I can talk to in this Demon Realm. The Abyss King only spends time with his sister. I haven't seen her for a long time, so I can't stop talking."

Luo Li chuckled, completely ignoring Mudan's somewhat unpleasant expression.

King Yuan did indeed return to the Demon God Palace. He was too busy and was unusually early today. However, when he returned and did not see anyone, his face immediately turned ugly.

He personally began searching for people within the Demon Palace.

The Myriad Spirit Pearl has been refined. If Consort Dan takes it, she and her child will be safe.

These past few days have been filled with this matter. Knowing that the child will be born safely, a great weight has been lifted from Mo Yuan's heart.

On the other side, Luo Li continued, a smile on her face: "Sister, how well does Prince Yuan treat you? Judging from your complexion, you must be doing well."

"Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. Prince Yuan treats Peony very well..." Peony became restless.

Luo Li chuckled inwardly, but her expression remained unchanged: "Sister, have you made any contact with the Flower Realm? I've heard... that Prince Yuan is planning to attack the Flower Realm."

Peony's heart skipped a beat, and the shock in her eyes was self-evident. She looked at Luo Li with a pale face.

"My sister doesn't know?" Luo Li said, feigning concern. "But then again, she's pregnant; how could I tell you such a thing?"

"Princess..." Haitang and Taohua were terrified. Was this news true or false?

The Flower Queen didn't mention it in her letter, so if it's true, the Flower King and Flower Queen wouldn't hide such a big matter from the princess.

King Keyuan was very considerate to the princess, so why would he suddenly want to attack the Flower Realm?

Peony's heart pounded like a drum. Her lips moved, but she couldn't utter a word. Was the Prince of Yuan's affection for her all a lie?

She was pregnant, why would King Yuan do this?

"Sister, it's getting late, you should go back early. I just heard about it, don't worry about it."

After Luo Li finished speaking, he got up and left. As he turned around, his face suddenly turned gloomy, and a disdainful smirk appeared on his lips. This was going to be interesting.

"Princess, please don't think too much. The Queen is talking nonsense. The Flower Queen never mentioned it. This is not true."

"The Prince of Yuan has been so good to you, why would he attack the Flower Realm?"

Seeing that Peony's face was getting worse and worse, Begonia hurriedly offered words of comfort.

Peony touched her belly, her eyes gradually filled with sorrow: "Did he... lie to me?"
