"Concubine Shu has arrived—"
"Why is she here!" Fu Tong'er covered her lower abdomen and was supported by Qiao'er as she went down the stairs.
When she saw Concubine Shu, although Fu Tong'er was unhappy, she still knelt down for the sake of Mr. Jiu's face.
After all, she is Jiu Ye's mother.
Concubine Shu looked at Fu Tong'er's gorgeous concubine's dress, and finally her eyes stopped on her lower abdomen.
Then he was helped by an old maid to sit on the high couch.
Fu Tong'er dismissed everyone around her and only left Qiao'er.
No one spoke in the Phoenix Palace.
After a long time——
Concubine Shu said, "Your Majesty, are you kneeling to me?"
Fu Tong'er knelt on the ground, lowered her eyes and said, "I dare not."
Concubine Shu said, "I heard from Lu Jin that you are the daughter of Fu Minhuan, the Prime Minister of Dian Kingdom?"
"Yes, Concubine." Fu Tong'er was neither humble nor arrogant, but she felt a little dizzy at the moment.
"Give me your hand." Concubine Shu's tone was flat, but it was an order, reminding people of Master Jiu.
Fu Tong'er stretched out her armored hand.
Concubine Shu looked at her armor, snorted, and finally pulled her wrist, her eyes slightly raised...
Fu Tong'er only felt a cold fingertip pressing lightly on her pulse——
quiet.
It was so quiet that she could hear her own heartbeat.
Concubine Shu raised her eyes again and looked at Fu Tong'er who was kneeling on the ground!
This time, her fingers stopped on Fu Tong'er's pulse.
"Did he sleep in the palace last night?"
"Yes, Concubine Dowager, last night, the Ninth Master came to my palace and stayed for most of the night, leaving before dawn."
"How long have you been together?"
"It's been half a year since I returned to Toffee."
Fu Tong'er answered truthfully.
After replying, the bedroom in the Phoenix Palace was silent again.
At this time, her wrist was held by Concubine Shu: "Get up and sit down."
"Yes, thank you, Concubine." Fu Tong'er was helped up by Qiao'er, sat aside, and lowered her eyes.
Qiao'er poured tea for the concubine and stood beside Fu Tong'er.
"Something happened to Lu Jin," said Concubine Shu. "Before he left today, he told me about you, your identity, and that you might be pregnant with his child. If anything happened to him, he told me to come to the palace and keep you safe."
"Yes..." Fu Tong'er couldn't help choking up when she heard the name of Jiu Ye. She then turned her head to the side, covering her face and crying silently.
Concubine Shu looked...
"Lu Jin was knocked unconscious by the bad guys and is still in a coma." Concubine Shu continued.
Fu Tong'er covered her face and cried uncontrollably.
No matter whether it is polite to turn your back on someone or not.
"I checked your pulse," Concubine Shu said calmly, "You are pregnant."
Fu Tong'er was stunned and stopped crying.
She was pregnant with Jiu Ye's child.
"I heard from Lu Jin that you are not suitable for pregnancy due to blood loss in your early years. He asked me to send you medicine for abortion."
"No." Fu Tong'er turned her head and refused. She stood up and knelt at Concubine Shu's feet. "I want to keep this child."
Concubine Shu was about to take the abortion medicine from the box brought by the nanny, but now she stopped.
He said, "According to your pulse, you are pregnant with twins. According to Lu Jin, if you are pregnant now, you will not live for more than five years. The children will not survive without a mother."
"I will protect myself and survive."
Concubine Shu smiled.
"How can you protect yourself during a difficult birth? I didn't agree with you. Lu Jin is almost thirty-three, and you're only nineteen. The age difference is too big. But Lu Jin likes you very much, and you are of noble status. I also want to have a grandson..."
Concubine Shu took another look at her imperial concubine's dress.
"As my son's woman, you are actually waiting in the palace for the ceremony of being crowned as a noble concubine. It's your fault for staying in the palace for even one day!"
