After a hearty meal, Gu Yufei felt much better. She squinted her eyes and watched the performance lazily.
In addition to performances, there is also a garden party after dinner.
There are many programs in the garden party, including drawing lots, throwing bouquets, ring tossing, guessing lantern riddles, etc.
The emperor and his concubines were having a great time, and the people around them were laughing along.
Some people want to take this opportunity to gain favor with the emperor.
Gu Yufei was not interested in these things, so she walked behind the crowd.
In ancient times, there were no colorful lights, only candles. Even though there were only candles, the palace was still decorated with a special atmosphere.
Gu Yufei was so angry that she felt a little tired as she walked.
The mottled shadows under the trees were lengthened.
The candle flames danced like little people.
Suddenly, a big hand came out of nowhere, covered her mouth and nose, and dragged her to the rockery behind.
“Um…um…um…” Gu Yufei struggled desperately.
He held her hands tightly against her chest, clamped her legs, and pressed her whole body against the rockery.
The protruding stones on the rockery pressed against her lower back, causing pain and tears to well up in the corners of Gu Yufei's eyes.
"Gu Yufei, it's our family. Don't be afraid. We just want you to come over and chat."
Gu Yufei recognized the voice as that of Mr. Zhang.
"I'll let you go now. Don't scream. Let's have a good talk."
Although Zhang Ling said this, he was still cautious. He gently stroked Gu Yufei's face with his hand, but did not press it as hard as before.
"Master Zhang, I am the wife of the Crown Prince. It is inappropriate for you to hold me hostage like this."
As she spoke, Gu Yufei's warm breath touched her palm, making it itchy.
Zhang Ling's heart also began to itch.
The Crown Prince's wife is much more interesting than the Peony in Wanhua Tower.
"We have done many inappropriate things, and this one is no exception." Zhang Ling raised his eyebrows. This was how the people in the palace evaluated him.
Gu Yufei thought to herself, she had no connection with this Lord Zhang, and they had only met once before the palace banquet, so why did he want to hold her hostage?
"The Crown Prince's wife ate peach gum bird's nest soup, thousand-year-old ginseng stewed chicken, and Chengyang Lake hairy crabs at the palace banquet... These foods are incompatible with pregnancy. I wonder if the baby in your belly is okay?" Zhang Ling said as he took Gu Yufei's pulse.
It's over. Gu Yufei's heart was filled with thunder. She wanted to pull her hand away, but he held her tightly.
According to Leo's report, Gu Yufei does not seem to be pregnant.
Moreover, Prince Fu was not very enthusiastic about her.
Zhang Ling was well versed in medicine and he immediately diagnosed that Gu Yufei was not pregnant. "What if we kick you out now and then find an excuse to have the imperial physician treat you? That would be a crime of deceiving the emperor."
"Master Zhang talked about my sad story. My child died some time ago, and Xiuqi and I were extremely sad. We were afraid that this news would be a blow to the old man, so we didn't tell him." Gu Yufei thought quickly.
"Oh? Really? From Madam Fu's pulse, we can see that she had no signs of miscarriage before. Her pulse is strong and powerful."
Gu Yufei was about to argue when Zhang Ling added, "Do you know who the current emperor trusts most? It's our master. If we push you out, who do you think the emperor will trust, you or me?"
Gu Yufei was about to answer when she suddenly realized that the noise outside was gradually fading away.
She and Zhang Ling were the only ones left in the courtyard.
"Why did you do this, Master Zhang? What do you want from me?"
