"Don't worry, your majesty. When I was giving you acupuncture just now, I was afraid that you would wake up and scream, so I had to seal your mute point in advance." Lin Chunhuan said in a calm tone, and his hands did not stop giving acupuncture.
Facing Zhu Rige's horrified expression, he sighed and said, "Why are you doing this?"
"Before I came here, I was curious. The Khan is clearly childless, and he's been so busy these past few months that he's barely had time to step into your house. So where did this baby come from? I thought you'd done something to offend the Khan."
"After taking my pulse, I realized that you, Your Majesty, didn't hesitate to use such strong drugs. Even though you knew that I could only have a stillborn baby, you still wanted to throw dirty water on me."
"I've been thinking about it for a long time and still can't figure out why you have to treat yourself like this." Lin Chunhuan's expression was calm, but his hand was getting heavier and heavier as he inserted the needle.
But after a while, a layer of cold sweat appeared on Zhu Rige's forehead.
"But after considering the cause and effect, I have figured it out."
After saying this, Lin Chunhuan stood up straight. At this time, Zhu Rige's body was already densely packed with silver needles. "You are trying to snatch Zhabusu away from me."
"You don't even need to throw too much dirty water on this. Just let some Arslan have a little doubt in his heart, and if you cry a few more times, it won't be too difficult for you, as the Eastern Palace Khatun, to take Zabusu away and raise him. This trick was Chu Xi's idea, right?"
Zhu Rige clenched and unclenched his fists, breathing heavily.
Although the body could move, it was so limp that it had no strength at all.
She wanted to ask Lin Chunhuan what he wanted to do, but no sound came out when she opened her mouth. Only her eyes were filled with endless fear.
"Originally, I didn't intend to be your enemy." Lin Chunhuan stood up straight, sighed softly, and pulled out the needles he had inserted with his own hands one by one. "My queen, you should never, ever set your sights on Zhabusu."
Footsteps were heard outside, and Lin Chunhuan pulled out the last needle without hesitation.
"You bitch!"
A loud slap landed on Lin Chunhuan's face. This scene was seen clearly by Arslan who just came in, and Zhu Rige did not expect it.
How come she could move suddenly?
Because she had been gathering strength, the slap was not light, but Lin Chunhuan did not say anything. She just raised her hand and touched her cheek, then turned to look at Arslan, "Khan, the queen is fine now."
"As long as you take good rest afterwards, there won't be any problems."
After hearing Lin Chunhuan's words, Arslan felt mixed emotions and the first thing he did was to ask the witch doctor to go and check.
But now, there was more than just one young witch doctor coming, and there were other witch doctors checking on him, so he could only bite the bullet and tell the truth: "Your Majesty... the situation has indeed stabilized."
"It seems that there is nothing serious now, but we still need to observe it carefully for a period of time."
After hearing this, Arslan glanced at the witch doctor he had called, and when he saw the other party nod, he walked forward and pulled Lin Chunhuan to his side, "Zhu Rige."
"Now that Ah Huan is on equal footing with you, I know you have resentment in your heart, but before the matter is fully investigated, if I see you attack Ah Huan again, don't blame me for being rude."
"What else does Khan want to investigate?"
Zhu Rige was not stupid, and he realized that Lin Chunhuan had done it on purpose, so he immediately raised his momentum.
With an extremely weak face, his breathing became increasingly rapid. "It was clearly her who killed my child. Is it possible that even at this point, the Khan is still going to protect this woman?"
"I'll say it again, the matter has not been fully investigated yet. I will give you an explanation after the investigation is complete. Until then, please calm down."
"Ah Huan, come with me."
After finishing speaking, Arslan didn't even leave a word of comfort and took Lin Chunhuan away directly.
Zhu Rige on the bed obviously wanted to say something, but before she could open her mouth, Arslan's figure had already disappeared outside the door.
The anger on his face gradually subsided and slowly turned into despair.
Zhu Rige slowly lay back on the pillow, as if she had lost her soul. She originally thought that after all, they grew up together, and Arslan would never have any feelings for her.
Otherwise, after becoming Khan, he had so many choices, why did he still let her be Khatun?
But at this time, Zhu Rige realized that he was wrong, and very wrong!
The boundary between love and not love is so obvious. From the moment Arslan entered the door and left, all the emotions in his eyes, whether tenderness, helplessness, or even anger, were only given to Lin Chunhuan.
He didn't even have a resentful look towards her, only endless coldness, nothing else...
"The Khan took me away like this. The Queen of the East Palace must be very sad." Lin Chunhuan followed Arslan silently all the way and spoke only after they entered the house.
But she also did not forget to pour hot tea and placed it next to him. "After all, she just lost her child, and the Empress of the East Palace is in need of help."
"Why, do you really want me to stay with her?"
Arslan's tone was flat, and no emotion could be heard, but Lin Chunhuan still tasted a hint of displeasure in it. She immediately pursed her lips and hugged Arslan from behind, "If possible, I wish there would be no other women around you."
"But I am a woman, and also a mother. Ever since I had Zabusu, I have wanted to keep my eyes on him all day, worried that he would be hungry or cold. Isn't the Khan the same?"
"Put yourself in her shoes. Isn't it the same for the Empress of the Eastern Palace towards her own children?"
Feeling Arslan's body slowly relax, Lin Chunhuan finally let go of his hand, walked to his side, and gently pulled his sleeves with both hands, "A married woman has no home."
"She has nothing left except her husband."
"You!" Arslan shook his head helplessly. Although he had not checked yet, he was almost certain that Lin Chunhuan would not give Zhu Rige any medicine.
Let’s not talk about whether Lin Chunhuan knew that Zhu Rige was pregnant before today.
Even if she knew that Lin Yihuan had created the orphanage that she hated the most, the child in her belly was still alive and well, and Zhu Rige had no deep hatred towards her.
How could she harm an innocent new life?
"At this time, you are still speaking for her. Do you know that she is..."
"I know." Before Arslan could finish, Lin Chunhuan raised her hand and placed her fingertips on his lips. "My hearing is not bad."
