Chen Jingxi stood up and prepared to bow and leave, but Wen Yuzhi came.
"Your servant pays homage to Her Majesty the Queen." Wen Yuzhi bowed respectfully, then nodded to Chen Jingxi as a gesture of goodwill.
Chen Jingxi responded with a forced smile.
"Consort Wen is here, please sit down." The queen greeted with a smile.
After thanking the Queen, Wen Yuzhi sat down next to Chen Jingxi.
"Consort Wen is pregnant now. It's cold and slippery. I've exempted you from paying your respects, so why are you here?"
Wen Yuzhi smiled and said, "I was bored in the palace. I heard that Princess Su had entered the palace, so I wanted to join in the fun. My Queen, please don't despise me."
Well, I can’t leave.
Time passed by little by little, and Chen Jingxi listened to them arguing with each other, wondering whether she should run away to pee.
At this time, a eunuch came in.

Chen Jingxi and Wen Yuzhi exchanged a glance, each seeing helplessness in the other's eyes. Chen Jingxi sighed inwardly, this palace was indeed not a pleasant place to stay, full of rules and constraints.
Wen Yuzhi picked up the tea on the table and took a sip when her face changed. She covered her stomach and said, "It hurts, it hurts so much... This tea..."
Looking at Wen Yuzhi's pale face, holding her stomach and groaning in pain, Chen Jingxi was stunned for a moment.
"Liu Xia, look at her, what's wrong with her?"
The palace maids were so frightened that they lost their minds. When they came to their senses, they hurriedly ran to look for someone.
