My mind instantly filled with Lin Chunhuan's every smile and frown at the palace banquet that day. After not seeing her for more than half a year, his Huan'er was even more beautiful, with such fair skin, such soft voice, and such a slender waist...
But how could she be pregnant with someone else's child!
"Sir, are you okay?"
A gentle voice sounded in her ears. Jiang He half raised her drunken eyes. In the hazy light, the figure of the woman in front of her seemed to overlap with the weak and pure Huan'er in her memory.
"Boom..."
"No! Don't come over here! I don't want to hurt you... No!"
Amidst the lightning and thunder, Lin Chunhuan huddled up tightly, his brows filled with fear.
Such a big movement directly woke up Wen Yunxiao who was sleeping soundly next to him.
Before Wen Yunxiao could react, the thin body was already pressed tightly against his chest. Lin Chunhuan bit her lips tightly, looking as if she was extremely scared.
"Don't be afraid, Huan'er. I'm here, no one can hurt you."
No one would feel good if they were woken up in the middle of a deep sleep, but seeing Lin Chunhuan's frightened look, Wen Yunxiao suppressed his displeasure and comforted her softly.
After the thunder stopped, Lin Chunhuan's emotions gradually stabilized.
But the fear in her eyes never dissipated. "Your Majesty, I dreamed of Concubine De again. Tell me, is she still blaming me?"
"She looks so scary, covered in blood. She wants to kill me... Your Majesty."
The low sobs were particularly beautiful, and Lin Chunhuan's whole body was shaking. "I really don't know what to do. Please save me, Your Majesty."
Wen Yunxiao pinched his eyebrows in embarrassment.
He has never believed in ghosts and gods, but recently, Lin Chunhuan would wake up from nightmares every few days. After so many times, even though he didn't believe it, some doubts began to arise in his heart.
"Okay, okay, Huan'er, don't be afraid."
Gently stroking Lin Chunhuan's back, Wen Yunxiao said in a gentle tone, "I promise you, I'll ask someone from the Imperial Observatory to take a look tomorrow, okay?"
"Besides, I am the emperor. Even if Concubine De's ghost is really lingering around, she wouldn't dare to do anything to you as long as I'm here!" When Wen Yunxiao mentioned Concubine De, his tone was not so good.
That woman was a vicious person when she was alive. After investigating for a while, he found out that Concubine De had done so many things behind his back that angered everyone.
But since the person is already dead, there is naturally nothing to worry about or settle accounts with.
I didn’t expect that even after death, there would be so much trouble!
Lin Chunhuan wrapped her arms around the emperor tighter. She sniffed and said softly, "Your Majesty, you are so kind to me. I don't know what to do."
"What to do."
Wen Yunxiao pinched her soft cheek with amusement, "I'm good to you, just bear with it."
"But……"
The furry little head in her arms raised up, a pair of eyes that seemed to contain a pool of spring water, "Your Majesty likes me now, so he is kind to me. I am afraid that one day Your Majesty will not like me anymore and will no longer treat me well... Then, I am afraid that I will be more miserable than dying!"
"Your Majesty, can you please always like me? Otherwise, I can't stand it."
Hearing this childish, innocent plea, Wen Yunxiao raised the corners of his lips, his eyes showing a hint of heartache. "I will always love you, Huan'er, don't worry."
"I like you more than you think."
There was no response for a long time.
Looking down, Wen Yunxiao discovered that the person in his arms had fallen asleep on his chest. Although it was already autumn, it was still very hot at night.
Lin Chunhuan's clothes were a little messy, revealing most of her fair shoulders and a dazzling spring scene. Her long eyelashes trembled in the moonlight, like a butterfly that would flap its arms and fly away at any time.
It was the first time that Wen Yunxiao discovered that his Huan'er was so beautiful!
I used to think she was just pretty and charming, but now that I've calmed down, I realize how delicate her beauty is. Her small, straight nose is slightly red, and her lips are round and full...
Wen Yunxiao swallowed uncontrollably and stretched out his hand. Just as he touched the tender face, Lin Chunhuan, who was lying on him, opened her eyes hazily.
"emperor……"
She fell asleep again before she could finish a complete sentence, like a kitten's murmur, tickling his heart.
He stood there the whole night and couldn't fall asleep!
I finally made it to dawn.
Wen Yunxiao, despite having sleepy eyes, still called the imperial physician immediately.
Lin Chunhuan's pregnancy was now being looked after personally by the head of the hospital. Just as the head of the hospital had taken her pulse, Wen Yunxiao had already stepped forward impatiently, "How is the virtuous concubine?"
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty is not seriously ill. She has been suffering from anxiety and dreaming recently. If this continues, it may be detrimental to the heir to the throne. I will prescribe two calming prescriptions for you."
"But heart disease needs to be treated with heart medicine. Your Majesty still needs to comfort the Queen."
Wen Yunxiao's face was not looking good, so he asked the head of the academy to leave and walked up to Lin Chunhuan. "Huan'er, don't worry. I have already asked the director of the Imperial Observatory to enter the palace."
As soon as the morning court session ended, Wen Yunxiao met the Supervisor first.
"You mean, there is indeed something targeting Concubine Xian now?"
"Exactly."
Jian Zheng remained calm and composed. In fact, there had been no obvious changes in the stars in recent days. On the contrary, the Red Luan star, which represented the harem, was shining brighter and was surrounded by a faint purple aura.
Well... since that person said something was wrong, even if he didn't see anything, he had to acknowledge that something was wrong.
To be able to hold the position of Supervisor, it is far from enough if one only knows how to read the stars.
Seeing Wen Yunxiao's gradually darkening expression, Chief Steward Fang spoke at the right moment, "Your Majesty, since the virtuous concubine is so upset, if she could see her family, she might feel better."
"As for matters concerning the astrology, the Imperial Astronomical Observatory will take care of them. Right now, the most important thing is to ensure Her Majesty's peace of mind!"
Manager Fang's words really hit the nail on the head for Wen Yunxiao. After all, the imperial physician had said that if she continued like this, it might affect the baby in her belly.
For him, this is something that he absolutely cannot allow to happen!
This child must be born and raised safely, without any mistakes!
"Since they conflict, is there any way to resolve it?"
Wen Yunxiao did not respond to Manager Fang's words, but instead turned his gaze back to the Supervisor.
However, since Chief Steward Fang had pointed the way so clearly, it was impossible for the Supervisor to fail to understand. "Your Majesty, what Chief Steward Fang said is not entirely unreasonable."
"I need time to dispel this evil spirit. Before that, if I can let Her Majesty the Virtuous Concubine see her family and calm her mind, then the threat of the evil spirit will be lessened."
"Then let's go to Jiangnan and bring Concubine Xian's father to the capital."
