Speaking of discomfort, there really is.

Although I rested for a while, I still felt anxious, a feeling I had ever had since leaving the Fourth Prince's wife's place in the afternoon.

Later, I had that dream, and when I woke up I felt increasingly unwell, but I didn't think much of it.

"I'm just a little tired," He Yue replied casually.

Thirteen said "Oh," looked her over carefully, reached out and stroked her cheek, and said with pity, "I'm sorry, it's my fault that you're like this. If you're not satisfied, you can hit me or scold me, just don't keep it to yourself."

He Yue curled her lips slightly. "Easy to say, but where were you all this time?"

Although she had decided to trust him for the time being, she couldn't allow him to touch her again. Until the truth was revealed, the two of them maintained a state of sharing a bed but not crossing any boundaries.

Thirteen, perhaps feeling guilty, showed no displeasure and let her have her way.

"If hitting you would be of any use, I'd rather beat you to the ground and never get up," He Yue said lazily.

"Alright, alright, it's my fault. You can hit me or scold me as you please, okay?" Thirteen smiled ingratiatingly.

Heyue ignored him and became drowsy again.

Thirteen looked at her with her eyes tightly closed, her eyes filled with worry.

He lowered his head and kissed the corner of her lips, sighing softly, "Heyue, thank you for giving me a chance. Trust me."

However, Heyue, who was asleep, did not hear it.

The next day, Heyue was still asleep when Hailan woke her up.

It was already late morning, but he was still feeling lazy and let Hailan and Chunya serve him.

During the process, Hailan reported: "Before the master left, he instructed that a doctor be found, saying that he noticed the princess's complexion was not good and asked the doctor to examine her. When can the princess see him?"

He Yue was taken aback, a warm feeling washing over her. She smiled slightly and thought to herself, "This kid is quite thoughtful."

Originally, given her personality, she wanted to say it wasn't necessary, as she had always been in good health.

But thinking back to yesterday's dream, and the words I said in the dream, I felt a little uneasy for some reason.

She knew her idea was absurd, just a dream, but the discomfort she felt yesterday was still vivid in her mind, making her uneasy. In the end, she still asked someone to call a doctor.

The process of taking her pulse was quiet, yet nerve-wracking. Watching the doctor's increasingly serious expression, even the usually composed He Yue couldn't help but sweat from her palms, fearing that something was wrong.

She wasn't afraid of disappointment, but rather of encountering problems she couldn't handle after hope arrived.

When the doctor withdrew his hand, Heyue pretended to be calm and waited for his answer, but in reality she was panicking, she had never been so flustered.

"The princess was just a little frightened, and there was nothing else wrong with her."

Upon hearing the doctor's words, He Yue was stunned, shocked? Her lips twitched involuntarily.

It's really funny to use this word on her.

She's always been fearless, so why would she be frightened?

Looking up at Hailan and Chunya, he was also surprised and couldn't help but laugh.

He Yue's face darkened, and she rubbed her forehead. She had really made a fool of herself today.

However, it turned out that things weren't as she had imagined, and Heyue couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.

However, this is for the best. At this time, Wusu's condition is unclear, and it is unknown what the results of the examination will be. It would indeed be inappropriate for her to be pregnant at this time.

She didn't want to have any ties with herself at that time.

The doctor continued, "However, Madam, you should still be careful. Although the fetus in your womb is healthy, it is still very young and fragile. You must not be frightened again."

Heyue and her two maids stood frozen in place.

fetus?

Hailan and Chunya exchanged a glance, and the next moment, they couldn't help but beam with joy.

He Yue snapped out of her daze and realized what she had just heard. It turned out... she really was pregnant.

Were you startled?

Recalling everything in yesterday's dream, perhaps it was at that time that I felt unwell during my pregnancy, which is why I felt so uncomfortable after waking up.

Thinking of this, Heyue couldn't help but grit her teeth in hatred for that person, and even started to complain about Thirteen.

Who told him that was another thirteen?

The doctor prescribed some medicine to prevent miscarriage, and Chun Ya tipped the doctor before happily seeing the person off.

Hailan chattered excitedly beside Heyue, "Madam, this is such a joyous occasion for you! You must inform the Madam and the Master as soon as possible, as well as the Thirteenth Prince. The Thirteenth Prince will be overjoyed when he finds out. And the palace, when Lady Wusu was pregnant, the palace was so happy and bestowed many gifts upon her. Now that you are pregnant, you are the primary Madam, and you are carrying a legitimate son. I imagine the palace will be even happier."

Knowing that Hailan was dissatisfied with the matter concerning the Wusu clan, Heyue didn't say anything, though she couldn't quite describe her feelings.

There was joy, but also nervousness.

In both her past and present lives, this is her first time being a mother. This feeling... is unfamiliar, novel, yet she secretly anticipates it.

"How many months?" Heyue asked Hailan.

"The doctor said it's been over a month." Hailan grinned from ear to ear.

Granny Wang came in, learned what had happened from Chun Ya, put her hands together, said "Amitabha," and smiled at He Yue: "It can be said that God has opened his eyes."

"That Wusu woman will be nauseous if she hears this, and hopefully she'll even have a miscarriage from anger. Hmph, let her be smug!" Hailan raised her chin, looking smug.

Granny Wang smacked her on the head, her brows furrowed, and said, "What nonsense are you spouting?" She then pointed outside and lowered her voice, "That's also the master's child."

Hailan covered her head and muttered unconvinced, "We don't even know if it's my child."

"That's none of our business. Don't cause trouble for the Fujin," Wang Mama warned sternly.

Hailan gave a pitiful "oh" and secretly stuck out her tongue at Heyue.

He Yue smiled gently, her mood as bright as the clear sunshine.
