Chapter 816 Why so weak?
For some reason, after saying this, Nan Yan saw Zhu Feng frowning slightly, looking a little worried.
She whispered, "Your Majesty, what's wrong?"
Zhu Feng looked up at her but said nothing.
Nan Yan said softly, "Is the emperor still worried? Haven't I returned? I'm fine."
“…”
Zhu Feng looked down at her, sighed softly, held her in his arms, and said solemnly, "Yes, it's okay."
“…”
"I won't let anything happen to you."
Nan Yan listened to his words and knew that what he said must be true. No matter what danger she encountered, or if anyone wanted to hurt her, as long as he was there, nothing would happen.
She smiled and gently snuggled into his arms.
Zhu Feng reached out and hugged her tightly.
After a long while, he slowly said, "You must take good care of the baby these few days. Your health is not good, and you need to replenish your vitality."
"Um."
|
The so-called replenishing of vitality means staying in the room every day, waiting for delicious food and drinks to be delivered from the kitchen, and then just eating and drinking.
Moreover, she was not allowed to go out.
She still remembered that when she was in the Prince of Yan's Mansion in Beiping, after dinner every day, she would be dragged by Zhu Feng or Ran Xiaoyu to walk in circles in the yard, making Nan Yan howl in pain. But now, she was not allowed to go out and walk in circles, and she felt a little uneasy.
Although, now, her physical strength is indeed not enough.
My body still feels like there's a hole in it, and none of the supplements I've taken in over the past few days have paid off. Although I've fully recovered mentally, my hands and feet are still weak and I have no energy.
This was her first pregnancy, and there were no other women around her who had been pregnant before, so they didn't quite understand the situation.
Does it have to continue until production?
This won’t do!
So, after lunch that day, Nan Yan ate a little more to make herself feel fuller, and then said to Ran Xiaoyu, "Xiaoyu, accompany me for a walk outside."
Ran Xiaoyu immediately said: "My lady, the emperor won't let you go out."
"I'm not going out, I just want to walk around the garden."
“…”
"Didn't you often let me walk around the garden in circles before?"
"But, can you do it now?"
"I can do it. I'm in good spirits today."
Seeing that she seemed to be in good spirits, Ran Xiaoyu reluctantly agreed, put on thick clothes for her, and then supported her as they walked slowly around the small courtyard.
Maybe it had been too long since she had exercised. After walking around, Nan Yan felt a layer of sweat on her forehead, dripping down one by one, and her legs felt weak.
How can you be so weak?
She was a little confused, but still insisted on walking another lap.
Walk one more time tomorrow so that your body can recover slowly.
Just as she walked to the gate of the courtyard, she saw a familiar figure standing outside. It was none other than Concubine Ning Qin Ruolan.
She stood not far away, looking at her with a slightly frown.
When Nan Yan saw her, her heart moved slightly.
Ever since I was kidnapped this time and came back, I haven't seen her and Wu Wan. I think it's because I don't want them to come and cause trouble for me. Of course, Nan Yan herself doesn't want to see them either.
Then, his eyes slid past Qin Ruolan.
Continue to slowly circle around yourself.
After walking around again, he came back and found Qin Ruolan still standing there. The only difference was that her brows seemed to be furrowed even more tightly than before.
Nan Yan couldn't help but said, "Concubine Ning, what's the matter?"
Ran Xiaoyu subconsciously stood in front of her to block her. Perhaps the previous incident had left too deep a shadow on her, and she had to help herself block any possible danger.
Hearing his own words, Qin Ruolan finally walked up slowly.
She looked solemn, her eyes fixed on Nan Yan's belly.
Therefore, Ran Xiaoyu became more cautious, took a step forward, and stopped her when she was still a few steps away from Nan Yan.
"If you have anything to say, please stand there and speak, Concubine Ning."
“…”
Concubine Ning glanced at her, and perhaps with a hint of laughter in her voice, she smiled faintly.
So he stopped and took another look at Nan Yan's belly.
Said: "The Imperial Concubine is almost seven months pregnant, right?"
Nan Yan knew that she was calculating the time. After all, when she was pregnant with this child, they were both on Xingluo Lake and by Zhu Feng's side.
So he nodded lightly: "That's right."
Qin Ruolan looked at her again.
Nan Yan felt a little uneasy when she looked at her. For some reason, she felt uncomfortable.
She frowned slightly and was about to say something when she heard Qin Ruolan say, "This month is the most tiring for women. Their waists ache and their legs swell. Your Majesty... take good care of yourself."
Nan Yan looked at her with some confusion.
How did she know that the woman was pregnant?
Although she is also a woman, she——
Before Nan Yan could think about it, Qin Ruolan shook his head again, as if to shake off what he had just said, or rather, his own thoughts, and then said, "By the way, it seems that the queen hasn't visited the old lady these days."
Nan Yan's brows immediately furrowed.
Yes, she hasn't visited her grandmother these days.
Of course it wasn't that she didn't want to, but Zhu Feng wouldn't let her. In fact, she had just been kidnapped and was so weak. If she went to see her grandmother, it wouldn't be good if she saw her and made her worry.
So, she planned to calm down before going to see her.
However, after hearing what Qin Ruolan said, her face darkened slightly.
"You, have you visited my grandmother?"
Qin Ruolan said calmly: "That's right."
“…”
Nan Yan's brows furrowed even tighter.
She had seen Qin Ruolan meet Tong Yuhua before, and that time, it was very unpleasant, and Tong Yuhua even said a few words to her.
But he didn't expect that she would go there again while he was away.
Nan Yan said, "Concubine Ning, if there is nothing special, you'd better not disturb my grandmother."
Qin Ruolan looked at her calmly and said, "There was nothing special originally."
“…”
"It's just that the old man hasn't been in good health recently, so I went over to see him."
"What?"
Nan Yan was startled.
Grandma isn't feeling well?
Why didn't anyone tell her?
Seeing her somewhat surprised expression, Qin Ruolan seemed to understand something. She said, "Madam Si is old. This is in the north, and winter is much more difficult. Besides, it's very cold this year, and many elderly people can't make it."
“…”
"If the Imperial Concubine is free, please go and see her."
After saying that, she looked at Nan Yan's belly again and turned away.
