Huang Ying'er thought about it and didn't follow him. She walked a few steps, looked back, and exchanged a glance with the maid next to her. She wanted to say something, but didn't say it in the end.
Lei Yuezhu leaned against the bedside, her face pale. When she saw Dongfang Ye, she cried out and reached out her hand to him. Dongfang Ye walked forward slowly, but did not extend his hand. He just said lightly, "What's wrong?"
Lei Yuezhu sighed: "I have been feeling dizzy since I woke up this morning. This time, I think I am seriously ill. My Lord, if I die now, please take care of yourself."
Dongfang Ye was also somewhat moved when he heard her say this. He could not help but step forward and hold her hand: "How could you be seriously ill? You have always been in good health..."
Lei Yuezhu sighed in a thousand ways and leaned coquettishly into Dongfang Ye's arms: "My lord, please love me more. I am so miserable. The other day I dreamed that the hills were covered with white-headed owls. My brother hasn't sent a special envoy for a long time. I think it's because I am not good enough and can't give birth to a boy or a girl..."
The more she spoke, the sadder she became. Dongfang Ye looked at her pale face, which was usually so proud of her, and her weak tone, and couldn't help but soften his heart: "Okay, okay, you've made it sound so miserable..."
Fortunately, the doctor came in at this time, and An Ranyue followed him in, looking anxious: "Sister Princess, how are you now? I heard that you were unwell, so I came here immediately..."
She wanted to say something else, but Dongfang Ye frowned and didn't even look at her. He just said to the doctor, "Why don't you hurry up?"
An Ranyue looked embarrassed, not knowing whether to move forward or backward, so she just stood aside and waited quietly.
The doctor came forward immediately to diagnose the case. He was a little unsure and made a hesitant diagnosis. Lei Yuezhu couldn't help but say, "I think it's really serious..."
The doctor smiled and said, "Congratulations, Your Majesty. Congratulations, Princess. The Princess' pulse indicates that she is pregnant..."
"What?" An Ranyue suddenly spoke up, and Lei Yuezhu spoke up in unison with her, but the surprise in her voice was almost overwhelming. She sat up delicately, looked at Dongfang Ye, and couldn't help asking, "Your Majesty, this is... I didn't expect it."
Dongfang Ye's surprise was self-evident. He looked at the doctor in disbelief: "But is it confirmed? Why couldn't you see it yesterday?"
The doctor had a calm expression and said, "I don't know what department you were in charge of yesterday. I have been practicing medicine for many years, and I have never made a mistake in diagnosing a happy pulse."
"Okay, reward!" Dongfang Ye waved his hand, and someone immediately brought a plate of silver and sent the doctor away.
Upon hearing this, Lei Yuezhu leaned even more weakly in Dongfang Ye's arms, unable to even sit up. Dongfang Ye immediately asked people to prepare supplements in a panic, and told Lei Yuezhu what she could and could not do. When everything quieted down, An Ranyue, who was originally in the room, had left without knowing when.
How could Lei Yuezhu care about all these? She was just restless, afraid that she was not sitting or standing properly. It was already midnight when Dongfang Ye settled Lei Yuezhu down. He looked at the bright moonlight and let out a long sigh. All the worries in his heart were gone at once. He felt that the chance for his luck to change had come.
Now good things are happening one after another. When good luck comes, it cannot be stopped.
When he was going down the stairs, he missed a step. Of course, this step would not hurt him, but his head swayed and he almost fell. However, at this moment, a picture flashed in his mind. In the picture, An Qingran faced him coldly, while An Yanran was holding a boy in her arms, with the same eyebrows and eyes as him. An Yanran spoke harshly to him, and An Qingran was forced to drink a bowl of black medicine...
How could these things appear in my mind?
He was sure that he had never seen this scene before, so why was it so real? He still felt a little reluctant, as if he was about to lose An Qingran.
Damn it.
This scene added a hint of frustration to his originally cheerful mood. No matter what kind of feelings he had for An Qingran, he should not have such pity. Thinking of this scene, Dongfang Ye thought of Dongfang Jin again. Now, he became the emperor, and everyone expressed their submission, but they were indifferent to him and did not treat him specially. Thinking of this, a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth. His hesitant steps finally quickened. He took a few steps angrily, and when he stopped in the garden, he didn't know which yard to go to.
While hesitating, he heard An Ranyue's voice, scolding Xiao Nuo: "Why are you walking so fast? How dare you walk in front of me? Do you want to put even a little girl like you on top of me? Do you want to bully me?"
"I dare not." Xiao Nuo said in a low voice.
There was only a snapping sound, followed by Xiao Nuo's sobbing: "Princess Yue, I know you are in a bad mood, please hit me, as long as you are in a good mood, you can beat me to death..."
Dongfang Ye frowned upon hearing this and wanted to speak, but after thinking for a moment, he just snorted coldly and turned away...
*******************************
Inside the palace.
Cold Palace.
The high walls blocked the sunlight, as well as all eyes and popularity.
Inside the high walls.
The spring scenery seemed unable to reach here. The one-meter-high weeds at the foot of the shady wall were swaying left and right in the wind. Next to the weeds was a slender figure, sitting on a broken chair, lost in thought. The sunlight shone on her body, and she squinted her eyes slightly, still motionless. She seemed to be listening to something, or perhaps she was in a trance.
She is the virtuous concubine.
Her face was obviously old, with silver hair on her temples, making her look like an old woman. She had been sitting there all that time. Apart from the sound of the wind and the chirping of birds, there was no other sound in the cold palace.
Suddenly, a sound she hadn't heard in two years was heard, the sound of a door opening and footsteps.
She raised her head warily, and when she saw who was coming, she returned her gaze to its original state and continued to stare blankly at a certain place, without any change on her facial expression.
"Virtuous Concubine?" Concubine Shu called out, then she remembered that she was no longer a virtuous concubine. She was now a woman in the cold palace, no different from a palace maid. Her title had been taken away, and the fact that she was able to survive was also a great favor from the emperor.
The virtuous concubine looked up at her and still said nothing.
"I know you are blaming me. Our open and covert fights before, my memory is not that bad, and I still remember them all now. But now I think about it, it was just a drama for entertainment without winners or losers... I didn't want to come to see you, but in the past two years, I slowly let go of everything, but my health is not as good as before. When people get old, they will recall many things from the past. Thinking about it, all I can do is sigh. You entered the palace with me, but you didn't want to..." Concubine Shu didn't want to say anything more after saying this. She waved her hand and asked the palace maids to go away.
The virtuous concubine continued to stare at her coldly without saying a word.
Concubine Shu sighed again, "Don't think I came here to show off. I just came to tell you that Dongfang Yan is doing well. I sent people to escort them out of the capital and gave them enough money and property to feed and clothe them for the rest of their lives. Of course, they can't be as extravagant as before. After all, we are cousins. I won't watch you fall into despair. It's just that the king is really sad about you. He can't forgive his son and concubine for betraying him together. You have to relax here. Anyway, you need food and clothing. If you die, I'm afraid Dongfang Yan won't have a good life either."
"I won't die." The hoarse voice scared Concubine Shu.
The virtuous concubine finally looked at her, her face somewhat moved: "Thank you for your concern."
"Well, that's nothing. It's just that the days and months in the palace are long, and I don't even have anyone to talk to except the Lord.
None. Ru Fei and the others wanted to talk to me, but I knew they were thinking in all sorts of ways. Your Majesty is in such a bad condition now, how could he resist their temptation? Therefore, I was too lazy to let them come near to take care of him..."
The virtuous concubine did not speak.
Concubine Shu continued to talk about some other things before leaving.
After leaving, Concubine Xian was still sitting on the broken chair, as if what she had just done was just a dream. The sky was still the same, and the weeds had not turned green yet...
After Concubine Shu walked out, she looked back again. The nanny beside her said softly, "Concubine Tai is really kind-hearted. Concubine Xian was a rebel and was with the Queen Mother. There is really no need to visit her again."
Concubine Shu sighed quietly: "The reign title is Jin'an now, right?"
Mammy didn't understand and just hummed.
"This is their era. We are just some dying people..." As she said this, she held the hand of the nanny and walked back slowly. Although she was in her forties, she looked a little frail. After a while, she said, "We didn't tell her about Qin Xiangning's suicide. What would it matter if we told her?"
"Yes. I never expected that."
"You should also think about how many vain people can be content with poverty?" Concubine Shu's face did not show any sadness at all. "That woman is not a good person. Besides, if you are not lucky enough to be the enemy of An Qingran, you are destined to die miserably..."
She did not say that she was an enemy of Dongfang Jin, nor did she say that she was an enemy of the emperor. The nanny was stunned for a moment: "The queen is indeed an unusual woman..."
"Yes, I saw it at the beginning. Without An Qingran, all Dongfang Jin's achievements would be in vain. It's a pity that my son is not up to the standard..." Concubine Shu shook her head and said, "By the way, why hasn't Prince Kang come to the palace recently?"
"I think she is to accompany the princess. Didn't Prince Kang tell you two days ago that Princess Kang is pregnant?" The nanny reminded softly.
Concubine Shu said with a sigh, and a look of joy appeared on her face: "That's true. I forgot... Madam Cui, pack some gifts and send them over. Tell Princess Kang to take good care of her. Also, ask Prince Kang to come to the palace soon. I have something to tell him."
