After Chapter 575, you will stand behind me.
"Wan Chun!"
Zhou Ruiyuan cried out in alarm, holding her tightly in his arms, a similar scene suddenly flashing through his mind.
He was truly terrified, even more so than when he heard Mianmian's sobbing.
He immediately picked up Du Wanchun and hurried back to the palace.
That night, all the imperial physicians in the capital came to the Eastern Palace, just to examine Du Wanchun's pulse.
Zhou Ruiyuan sat by the bed, holding Du Wanchun's hand tightly, his eyes red and misty.
Whether he was crippled or had his legs broken, he had never been so distraught.
After examining the case, dozens of imperial physicians gave Zhou Ruiyuan an answer.
"Your Highness, the Crown Princess's pulse is stable and she is fine."
Zhou Ruiyuan's voice suddenly turned cold, chillingly sharp, "If there's nothing seriously wrong, then why is the Crown Princess still unconscious?"
The leading imperial physician bowed his head and replied, "The Crown Princess is deficient in vital energy and has insufficient qi, blood, yin, and yang. This is probably due to overwork. She only needs to rest well and take some nourishing medicine for a period of time."
Zhou Ruiyuan's face gradually lit up with joy. "Really?"
Dozens of imperial physicians knelt down and bowed, saying, "Yes, Your Highness."
Zhou Ruiyuan's heart, which had been hanging in suspense, settled down. He reached out and gently brushed the stray hairs from Du Wanchun's forehead. Looking at her sleeping face, he showed a look of relief. "So you were just too tired. It's my fault. I've made you work too hard every day."
After he finished speaking, he dismissed the imperial physicians, palace maids, and eunuchs, leaving only himself and Du Wanchun.
Looking back on their many years of marriage, Du Wanchun was always the one to step forward in times of trouble, while he was solely focused on revenge and seizing the throne.
Zhou Ruiyuan felt extremely guilty. He knelt down beside Du Wanchun, his red eyes glistening with tears. He kissed Du Wanchun's hand again and again, wishing he could peel away his layers and wrap her up inside him.
Don't let others see it, and don't let others touch it.
Let her stay in your heart, undisturbed, living a carefree life forever.
His fingers trembled slightly as he stroked her cheek, his voice firm as he said, "From now on, you only need to stand behind me..."
In her sleep, Du Wanchun vaguely felt something cold fall on her face.
It's cool and refreshing, and has a grassy scent.
Just like the fairy plant she used to grow in the yard, it dripped dew when it was unhappy, exuding a faint fragrance.
The next day, the morning light shone through the fluffy white clouds.
Du Wanchun opened her eyes groggily, and through the blinding light, she saw Zhou Ruiyuan lying beside her.
He didn't sleep all night, just held her hand and quietly stayed with her.
Hearing the noise, Zhou Ruiyuan quickly looked up at Du Wanchun and said happily, "Wanchun, you're awake?"
Du Wanchun nodded, sat up, and rubbed her temples. "What happened to me yesterday?"
Zhou Ruiyuan replied, "The doctor said you're too tired and need to rest..."
After he finished speaking, he got up and took the handkerchief he had prepared beforehand to wipe Du Wanchun's face.
Suddenly remembering something, Du Wanchun quickly looked up and asked, "How is Yan'er? How is her pregnancy?"
Zhou Ruiyuan sat down next to her and said patiently, word by word, "I sent someone to the Han family early this morning. My second brother told me that the baby has been saved. Doctor Xu's medicine for preventing miscarriage was very effective."
Du Wanchun breathed a sigh of relief, took the handkerchief and wiped her face. At least her hard work hadn't been in vain.
Zhou Ruiyuan added, "Furthermore, I heard from Doctor Xu that someone gave my second sister-in-law ten times the normal dose of abortion pills."
Du Wanchun paused, "That's right, I don't know who is so vicious, clearly aiming for Yan'er's life."
Zhou Ruiyuan squeezed her hand and said softly, "I will investigate this matter. Murdering an imperial concubine is a serious crime. As for you..."
"What about me?" Du Wanchun asked with a smile.
Zhou Ruiyuan leaned close to her and whispered something in her ear.
Du Wanchun's ears instantly turned red. She lowered her head, ready to retort, but then saw Zhou Ruiyuan stand up and press her shoulders, saying, "The sun will be shining brightly tomorrow, perfect for a tyrant. Why don't you come with me to bathe in the Green Lotus Pond?"
