Xiao Li hadn't encountered a time traveler in a long time, so she decided to go and see Ming Yu with great interest.
The Phantom Spirit conjured an invisibility cloak, and Xiao Li disappeared completely. With the Phantom Spirit, things were much easier for her now.
Mingyu had already moved out of Yuheng Palace and into Weiyang Palace, so Xiaoli swaggered in.
"My lord, nothing went smoothly this afternoon. Li was resting peacefully in the Cold Palace, and there was no sign of any problem."
"And the second prince, he seems frightened and refuses to speak."
Mingyu stroked her belly. "Forget it, let's not talk about these things anymore. She's lucky to be alive."
Xiao Li carefully observed Mingyu. She was wearing a lotus-colored long dress with very wide sleeves, which made her look ethereal and different from palace clothes. It was obviously modified.
Mingyu looked terrible, a clear sign of the side effects of pregnancy. Her pregnancy must be very unstable, as evidenced by the faint traces of pregnancy-stabilizing medication in the room.
Yang Xiaoli couldn't understand why Consort Yu would steal her child, but after seeing the real person, Xiaoli understood.
Mingyu was a time traveler. When she arrived, the palace maid had already drowned for a long time, and her body had been soaking in water, which caused her to have a cold uterus and was unable to get pregnant.
As for her current pregnancy, we must mention the legendary doctor, Yue Wuji, who has recently gained fame in the martial arts world.
Le Wuji cured Mingyu's uterine coldness, and she became pregnant. Therefore, Shangguan Ti no longer needed to exist, which led to this dramatic scene of pushing people away.
This not only solves the problem of Consort Li, but also allows them to frame Shangguan Ti—truly killing two birds with one stone.
Mingyu suddenly felt a chill and touched her arm, feeling a little uncomfortable.
"Alright, you can all go now. I need to rest."
She got up and went to the back room. Xiao Li thought about it and, for the sake of the child in her belly, did not make a move, but she was a little unwilling to just leave like that.
She circled the Weiyang Palace and sprinkled some medicinal powder on it. Soon, the Weiyang Palace attracted a swarm of small insects, densely packed together, which looked particularly eerie.
The Weiyang Palace was brightly lit all night long, with palace maids and eunuchs constantly going in and out. No matter how many times they cleaned, it was no use; the insects seemed endless.
Finally, the imperial physician was summoned, apparently because Consort Yu's child was in danger. Yue Wuji rushed over from outside the palace, and only then did Weiyang Palace return to peace.
Shangguan Jin held Mingyu's hand, his expression shifting between anger and uncertainty.
"What's going on? Investigate this for me!"
Le Wuji fed Mingyu the medicine he had prepared little by little.
"Don't worry, it's all over now. It was just a little bit of powder, it will clear up. But this person is obviously knowledgeable about medicine and came for Weiyang Palace. If we don't find him, it will be extremely harmful to Yu'er."
Shangguan Jin glared at Le Wuji, "If you call Yu'er again, don't blame me for being impolite."
Le Wuji wiped Mingyu's mouth with a handkerchief. "Oh~ why aren't you being polite?"
Shangguan Jin was furious, but he suppressed his anger because he knew that Yu'er's health depended on his care.
Mingyu squeezed Shangguan Jin's hand, silently comforting him.
Le Wuji saw the two's little interaction and felt a pang of bitterness in his heart. If he hadn't met Yu'er so late, how could this fickle and treacherous person have gotten his hands on her?
"snort!"
Mingyu turned her gaze away from Shangguan Jin.
"Brother Le, when the three of us became sworn brothers, we agreed to treat each other as friends regardless of our social status."
Now that I am Jin's wife, please give me some face and stop arguing, okay?
After she finished speaking, she coughed twice.
Shangguan Jin's expression relaxed, and he also recalled his experience outside the palace.
Mingyu longed for life outside the palace, so he secretly took her out of the palace to play.
One Mid-Autumn Festival, while admiring the lotus flowers by the lake, I unintentionally saved Yue Wuji, who turned out to be a miracle doctor.
The three hit it off immediately, feeling like they had known each other for a long time. Since Mingyu always dressed as a man, the three of them always treated each other like brothers.
It wasn't until the moment of their sworn brotherhood ceremony that Mingyu revealed her true gender. Shangguan Jin, seeing Le Wuji's frustrated expression, secretly felt smug for a long time.
Thinking back to that time, Shangguan Jin also felt a bit of brotherhood.
"Wuji, the three of us have agreed to share good fortune together. I won't force you if you don't want to go to the Imperial Hospital, but for the time being, you should stay in the palace to protect Yu'er and the baby in your belly."
Remembering the life-saving grace he had received, Yue Wuji nodded and agreed.
"I will stay."
Mingyu immediately smiled; she knew that Brother Le cared for her the most.
Xiao Li left quietly. The commotion had lasted for most of the night, and it was about time. She would come again next time.
She went to the Second Prince's Mirror Moon Palace, where Shangguan Ti was lying in bed with a fever. He had pushed people into the water during the day, but he was afraid afterward, since he was only ten years old.
Xiao Li used her spiritual power to calm him down, and he quickly calmed down and his fever subsided.
Xiao Li gave him a vision, in which he saw how he was switched and his tragic future.
When he woke up, he was bewildered and confused. Was all of this real? Was he really Li's child?
The children in the harem are precocious. By the age of ten, they already know a lot of things and can be treated as adults. Xiao Li is looking forward to his choice.
That night, Shangguan Ti secretly came to the Cold Palace alone. He had gone to see Consort Yu during the day, but she did not see him, nor did she see his father.
Considering that Consort Yu had always been indifferent to him, he already knew the truth.
Xiao Li lit the lamps tonight and sat quietly in the main hall, waiting.
"You've arrived."
Shangguan Ti carefully examined the woman in front of him. She was well-dressed, had a slender face, and possessed a remarkable air of elegance.
Those eyes were bright and piercing, nothing like the somewhat crazy woman I saw by the lake yesterday.
"Are you really my mother?"
Xiao Li nodded. "I checked you as soon as you were born. There's a plum blossom-shaped mark on your arm. I can't be wrong. That's why I firmly believe my child was stolen, not that I gave birth to a monster."
Shangguan Ti's face showed lingering fear; he had actually pushed his own mother into the water.
"Are you... are you alright? I clearly pushed you yesterday, and you fell into the water too..."
"Shh..."
Xiao Li put her finger to her lips. "I can swim, so I came up from the other side."
Shangguan Ti blushed slightly, a little embarrassed.
"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have pushed you. Even if you're not mine... I still shouldn't have pushed you."
Xiao Li nodded. "You really shouldn't have done that. Did you hear what the palace maids said later?"
Thinking of this, Shangguan Ti gave a bitter smile, "She raised me for so many years, and now that she has her own child, she can't wait to get rid of me."
Xiao Li realized she was being too calm, so she stood up and walked to Shangguan Ti's side.
Shangguan Ti is quite tall, already the same height as her.
Xiao Li tugged at his sleeve. "Sit down and let me see your mark."
Shangguan Ti obediently rolled up his sleeves, and Xiao Li looked closely; the plum blossom mark was clearly visible, truly magical.
"Would you acknowledge me?"
