The beauty glared at him: "If you call me again, you're really going to get me into trouble."

"Alright." Shu Chengfeng, a little impatient, lowered his head and bit her neck. "Rest now."

Yan Nangui listlessly said, "See Your Highness off."

Shu Chengfeng shook his head, got off the ground, straightened his clothes, turned around and pinched her fleshy spot, then left.

Yan Nangui only hummed a few times before turning over and lying on his stomach.

The footsteps faded into the distance, and Jiangxiang came in and asked, "Is Liangyuan asleep? Or should we wait a little longer?"

"That's about it."

Jiangxiang agreed and began preparations.

Yan Nangui lay lazily, thinking that his cousin Ye's symptoms seemed to indicate pregnancy, but what about His Highness's attitude...?

Tsk, this mansion now has members of the Ye family bloodline, what's going on?

So, is my cousin delusional about being pregnant?

I guess they've been waiting for this for a long time.

She suddenly asked, "When was the last time Consort Ye served the emperor?"

Jiang Xiang was taken aback at first, then said, "This...this isn't right, isn't it two months along?"

"Ha, so what kind of pregnancy is she carrying?" Yan Nangui couldn't help but laugh.

Jiang Xiang was stunned: "She...this..."

"Don't panic, she definitely wouldn't dare to cheat on you. She's just hoping to get pregnant. You're overthinking it," Yan Nangui said.

“What if the head of the academy finds out…” Jiangxiang shook her head.

"Then it depends on whether her cousin will keep it from her. Let's just pretend we didn't hear anything," Yan Nangui said kindly.

Jiang Xiang agreed, finding it quite amusing.

To be honest, Consort Ye didn't have many opportunities to serve the emperor. Whether she could conceive depended entirely on how fortunate she was.

However, Yan Nangui interprets this matter differently.

I'm afraid... Ye Liangdi won't be able to get pregnant in the short term, right?

However, this has nothing to do with her.

Inside the Moon-Viewing Pavilion, Consort Ye finally saw Shu Chengfeng. Her eyes were filled with joy: "Cousin!"

"The imperial physician is on his way." Shu Chengfeng smiled. "If it's truly a joyous occasion, then it's a big deal."

Ye Liangdi subconsciously touched her lower abdomen, smiling shyly.

Liu Ying glanced at it and then looked down, a bad feeling creeping into her heart.

The imperial physician arrived quickly. After paying his respects, he took Ye Liangdi's pulse.

He switched hands in confusion, but still nothing happened.

"Your Majesty, I am of limited knowledge and understanding, and cannot discern the pulse of the Lady..."

"What do you mean you can't tell? Try again. Maybe it's because the pregnancy is still early?" Ye Liangdi frowned.

"This... if... if the concubine says she is pregnant, then..." the imperial physician stammered.

"Tell me, why are you being so cautious?" Ye Liangdi asked anxiously.

The imperial physician glanced at Shu Chengfeng, and only after seeing him nod did he say, "The concubine does not have a pregnancy pulse."

"You're talking nonsense, you quack doctor, I clearly... I clearly..." Ye Liangdi was a little embarrassed.

Liu Ying hurriedly said, "Our Lady hasn't had a good appetite these days, she feels nauseous and has a craving for sour foods. Her period is also late..."

The imperial physician glanced at Shu Chengfeng again, and seeing that he had no expression, he quickly said, "I really can't see any signs of pregnancy. As for the delayed period... it should only be two or three days, and it should arrive tonight or tomorrow. As for the poor appetite, that's quite normal. Nausea and vomiting are also not unusual. When people feel nauseous, they crave sour foods. These are all common occurrences."

Ye Liangdi's face turned red, and she was caught in a dilemma, unsure whether to get angry or upset.

Shu Chengfeng sighed: "Yue'er is naughty too, how could she talk such nonsense?"

Ye Liangdi blushed even more: "I didn't, I just..."

Shu Chengfeng waved his hand to stop her, and then said to the imperial physician, "Since she is feeling unwell, prescribe some tonics. You can go now. Go to the front courtyard to collect your reward."

The imperial physician thanked him and left.

Shu Chengfeng then said, "Even if you're anxious, you should know your own body, right? Because of your cold uterus, you need to nourish yourself all year round, and your aunt has told me that too. I'm never in a hurry, and I've never pressured you. You're still young, what's the rush? You don't have children yet, does that mean I don't care about you?"

In just a few words, he transformed Ye Liangdi, who originally wanted to get pregnant to win favor, into someone who was afraid of losing favor if she didn't have children.

“Cousin…” Ye Liangdi’s eyes reddened.

"You just won't listen to me. Take good care of yourself, it'll be perfect after you have a baby, right? What's the rush? My position isn't secure, I won't be able to take care of you even if you have a baby. There's a long road ahead, and I'm thinking of putting you in a more suitable position. Hmm?"

Shu Chengfeng patted her hand a few times.

Ye Liangdi blushed again, this time out of shyness.

"Cousin, I know I was wrong. I will definitely change in the future."

The fireflies and moonlight behind them both lowered their heads and sighed inwardly, wondering, "Where did you go wrong?"

Shu Chengfeng pulled her into the inner room: "Go to sleep early. When your period is over, have someone come and tell me that I haven't stayed overnight here for a while, right?"

“Cousin…” Ye Liangdi’s eyes were filled with a mixture of joy and complaint, an indescribable tenderness.

"Alright, you get some rest. I..."

"Cousin, you're still going to Jiyue Pavilion?" Ye Liangdi frowned. "She beat Ding Zhaoxun like that today..."

"Look at you, don't you ever learn? What did I tell you this morning?" Shu Chengfeng sighed.

"Oh, my cousin said that everything in the inner quarters is the Crown Princess's business," Ye Liangdi said, feeling wronged.

"Just remember that. You'll have more to do when you have a more suitable position in the future. Be good now." Shu Chengfeng pinched her cheek. "Alright, since you're unhappy, I won't go to Jiyue Pavilion. Go to sleep early."

Ye Liangdi was indeed pleased: "Thank you, cousin."

Shu Chengfeng smiled at her again and then left the inner room.

As soon as Shu Chengfeng left Wenyue Pavilion, the smile on his face vanished completely.

Yun Ji said cautiously, "If you're not happy about it... you don't have to come..."

"It's not that I'm trying to make things difficult for her, it's just..."

He didn't bother to say anything more.

In fact, he also knew very well that Ye Liangdi was foolish and only had love in her heart.

Call him cold or cruel, he just doesn't like people like that.

Perhaps he simply didn't like Ye Liangdi in this way.

Despite the many entanglements they've had, she only knows this little bit.

He couldn't possibly ask Ye Liangdi to have the firstborn child.

After the Crown Prince's residence had a child with the Ye family bloodline, how could other children be born?

"Call Xia Fengyi over." Shu Chengfeng finally returned to the front yard.

Yun Ji responded, thinking to himself that Xia Fengyi still had some favor towards him after all.

Just by looking at the fact that she's not pregnant yet, you can tell.

The next morning, Yan Nangui yawned as he went out and said, "I just realized that His Highness didn't mention punishing me last night?"

Chanyi was taken aback: "Isn't that a good thing?"

"Of course not! It would be better to punish me by grounding me! A month would be best."

"You really are something. Even if you don't get up early, you still can't go out. The spring scenery is so beautiful," Chanyi said.

Yan Nangui paused, clicked his tongue, and said, "That's true."

After arriving at the main courtyard, everyone gradually gathered. When the newlyweds greeted Yan Nangui, their curtsy was particularly upright.
