"I heard from the head of the academy some time ago that you were not feeling well. Are you feeling better now?" the empress dowager asked softly.
Lin Chunhuan also chuckled and nodded, "Thank you, Queen Mother, for your concern. I am fine."
The soft and weak words seemed to reveal infinite grievances. The Queen Mother quickly took her hand and said, "I know a little about the affairs of the harem, but the emperor is the son of heaven after all..."
"Your Highness." Before the Queen Mother could finish her words, Lin Chunhuan forced a smile and interrupted her, "Your Highness, I know that your health is improving. It's only right that you treat everyone equally. This is a good thing."
"I am truly happy for Your Majesty and have absolutely no other thoughts."
"I know you must have felt wronged, but it's good that you can think this way." As she spoke, the Queen Mother took a box from the hand of a nanny beside her and said, "This pair of filigree gold phoenix hairpins, please accept them."
“How can this be possible!”
Lin Chunhuan took two steps back and knelt directly in front of the Queen Mother. "The phoenix-head hairpin has always been the hair ornament of the Queen Mother. I dare not overstep the bounds!"
The Queen Mother chuckled and pulled the man up.
Without waiting for Lin Chunhuan to refuse, he placed the box containing the phoenix hairpin in her hands, "Don't you understand yet? As long as Cheng Yi is here."
"No matter what tricks those women in the harem use, they will never be able to get past you!"
Returned to Yongshou Palace.
Lin Chunhuan sneered at the phoenix hairpin on the table.
The Empress Dowager spoke nicely on the surface, but if she had really been resentful of the Emperor's favoritism towards Changning, she probably wouldn't have received a pair of phoenix hairpins today.
But a scolding!
Over the past year, no matter how good the Queen Mother was to her, Lin Chunhuan never dared to forget that they were mother and son, and a mother would always side with her son.
If there were no conflicts, the empress dowager would certainly be willing to treat her well for Cheng Yi's sake and because of the emperor's favor.
But if she really wanted to stop the emperor from having children for her own selfish reasons, the Empress Dowager would be the first to take action against her! Killing the mother and keeping the child was nothing new in the imperial city.
But... it's time to put pressure on Changning.
"Xing'er, ask the kitchen to make a bowl of chicken soup and send it to Weiyang Palace."
As expected, the emperor appeared in Yongshou Palace that night.
"Your Highness, I pay my respects to you. May your Highness live long and happily."
Hearing the slight alienation in Lin Chunhuan's tone, Wen Yunxiao's heart sank.
More than half a month had passed since the incident in the Plum Garden. He didn't know how to face his Huan'er, but his body's reaction was getting stronger day by day.
However, he would become more and more irritable when facing other concubines, and only in Xianfu Palace could he feel relieved.
Until today, something was delivered from Yongshou Palace.
He suddenly realized that he had not been to Yongshou Palace for more than two months!
Seeing Lin Chunhuan again at this time, he couldn't help but feel a little guilty. He quickly helped her up with a pair of big hands, "Huan'er, there's no need to do this."
"I said, when it's just you and me, there's no need for these empty formalities."
However, when Lin Chunhuan heard this, she shook her head, her eyes reddened, "Etiquette cannot be abolished. Isn't it because of my favor that the Emperor has spoiled me that he is angry with me?"
"Your Highness...I dare not."
The soft and gentle whisper made Wen Yunxiao's heart ache as if it were being cut by a knife.
Since they met, he had never seen Huan'er so frightened. He thought that she was frightened by the neglect she had suffered for more than two months.
Reaching out his hand and carefully wiping away the tears on her cheek, Wen Yunxiao took a deep breath, "Don't talk nonsense, when did I ever get angry with you?"
"It's just that I've been busy with government affairs lately, and I've neglected Huan'er for a while. Huan'er, please don't blame me."
Lin Chunhuan raised her head in surprise, her wet eyes particularly distressing, "Really? Isn't it because I blocked you from entering that the Emperor is angry with me and that's why he didn't come to Yongshou Palace?"
Wen Yunxiao coughed twice awkwardly.
But he still nodded firmly, "Of course, Huan'er, you are not allowed to have such random thoughts!"
"Don't you know how much I like you?"
A smile suddenly bloomed in his eyes, and a pair of arms wrapped around his neck.
Hearing the coquettish voice of his little daughter in his arms, Wen Yunxiao breathed a sigh of relief, as if the gap between them had disappeared in an instant.
As night fell, Wen Yunxiao couldn't wait even for a moment.
In Xianfu Palace, although his mind was full of this matter, he would feel bored every time he was halfway through the process, although he also felt relieved.
But every time I finish writing, I am overwhelmed by a huge sense of emptiness.
But as long as he was with Lin Chunhuan, what he could feel afterwards was a complete sense of satisfaction. Not only did his whole body feel unobstructed, but he also didn't feel any discomfort at all.
Although he didn't know how Prince Jin got that thing for Changning, Lin Chunhuan was very confident about the treasure in the brocade bag. After all, it was a fake.
How can it be compared with the original?
However, just when Wen Yunxiao was about to take the next step, Lin Chunhuan stopped him with a red face.
"What's wrong?"
Wen Yunxiao's voice was hoarse, and he tried to pull the clothes that were in the way without gentle movements, but Lin Chunhuan avoided him again, blushing and lowering her head.
His palm was gently placed on his lower abdomen.
"I haven't had my period since last month. I called the head of the hospital to check Ping'an's pulse, and he said... I'm pregnant again."
What's going on?
Wen Yunxiao's reason was wrapped in lust, and he couldn't come to his senses for a while.
When she realized what was happening, her eyes widened and she touched Lin Chunhuan's flat belly in disbelief, "Huan'er, you're pregnant again?!"
Nodding gently, Lin Chunhuan snuggled into the emperor's arms, "The head of the court said it's been almost three months, and I've been wanting to tell you this good news in person."
"It's just that you haven't had time to come and see me these days..."
As she spoke, Lin Chunhuan's tone became filled with tears and she seemed extremely aggrieved.
Wen Yunxiao finally realized that at that time Lin Chunhuan felt nauseous when she saw him. He thought that his Huan'er was annoyed with him and didn't want to see him.
Now that I think about it, it was simply morning sickness!
Everything was right. Wen Yunxiao was so excited that he almost wanted to pick up Lin Chunhuan and swing her around a few times, but he was afraid of hurting the child. In the end, he couldn't help but kiss her on the face again and again.
"Huan'er! My dear Huan'er! You are truly my lucky star!"
Without caring that it was still night, the emperor immediately sent someone to invite the empress dowager. The last time Lin Chunhuan was pregnant, the empress dowager was in poor health and could not be invited to come.
As a result, he didn't even have anyone to share his joy with, and he felt so depressed and uncomfortable.
Now that the Empress Dowager is in good health and Yongshou Palace is close by, there is no problem in making a trip.
When the Queen Mother came, there was still some sleepiness in her eyes. When she heard the Emperor say that Lin Chunhuan was pregnant again, she immediately became energetic. She would not have any problem staying up for another three days and three nights!
