Yu Jingchen's heart was pounding so hard it almost jumped out of his chest, and Nan Zhiyun was still shaken.
"It's alright... don't be afraid." Yu Jingchen quickly pulled the person into his arms and comforted him.
Nan Zhiyun hugged Yu Jingchen back, so close... so close. Baby... Nan Zhiyun's hand touched her lower abdomen; she almost lost him.
"It's alright, sweetie, don't be scared." Yu Jingchen knew that Nan Zhiyun must have been quite frightened just now. How could he not know how much Nan Zhiyun cherished this child?
"Go check!" Yu Jingchen didn't believe it was an accident. It had just been installed; how could such a problem occur? Besides, he hadn't used any force; the rope shouldn't have broken.
"Yes!" Xinglai was so frightened that he almost couldn't catch his breath.
"It was my oversight. I'm sorry, I scared you." Yu Jingchen felt guilty. If he hadn't brought Nan Zhiyun out, this wouldn't have happened.
“It’s okay…” Nan Zhiyun also knew that it wasn’t Yu Jingchen’s fault. She had seen it clearly these past few days: no matter what problems she had, he would apologize and shift the blame onto her.
"Come on, I'll take you inside and then we'll find the imperial physician to take a look." Yu Jingchen was afraid that something might happen to Nan Zhiyun.
"Hmm," Nan Zhiyun became more cautious after learning about her physical condition, so she followed Yu Jingchen back into the house. The imperial physician arrived quickly; it was the same physician as before, as this was much more convenient.
"Your Majesty, the Empress has been frightened, and her pregnancy is unstable. In addition, she has been depressed these past few days, and her body... simply cannot bear it. I implore Your Majesty to make a decision for the Empress as soon as possible," the imperial physician said.
When Nan Zhiyun heard this, her face turned pale, and Yu Jingchen also frowned.
"Your Majesty..." Nan Zhiyun looked at Yu Jingchen with fear and worry.
"It's alright, don't worry, I'm here." Yu Jingchen comforted her, but when he looked at the imperial physician again, a thoughtful look flashed in his eyes.
"You may leave now." Yu Jingchen said nothing.
"Your Majesty..." The imperial physician seemed to want to say something, but was stopped by a look from Yu Jingchen.
"Get out!" Yu Jingchen lost his patience.
"Yes..." The imperial physician dared not speak further and practically scrambled away.
"It's okay, don't take it seriously. As long as Yun'er is alright, the baby will be alright too, so Yun'er must be happy, okay?" Yu Jingchen comforted her.
“Okay,” Nan Zhiyun replied.
Yu Jingchen tried to coax Nan Zhiyun to rest, but Nan Zhiyun couldn't sleep. Not long after, Xinglai arrived with the investigation results.
However… Xinglai hesitated as she looked at Nan Zhiyun in Yu Jingchen’s arms, unsure whether she should speak.
"Does Yun'er want to hear it?" Yu Jingchen asked her.
"Listen, I want to hear it." Nan Zhiyun was filled with lingering fear. What's more... her child was her bottom line. If anyone harmed her child, she... would fight to the death to make that person pay the price.
"Then let's just say it directly." Yu Jingchen looked at Xing Lai.
"Yes... I've already had someone investigate. The swing ropes were deliberately cut, and... only the Second Princess went near there today," Xinglai said.
Yu Jingchen frowned, and then he heard Xinglai continue, "Not only that, it seems that the Second Princess was also involved in what happened at the hunting ground last time. That cat... the Second Princess deliberately carried it there. She and Jing Cainu have met before."
