The Imperial Noble Consort pulled back the furious Emperor and asked Yun Qingluo in a deep voice, "Are you sure it was the Empress who sent someone to summon you?"
Upon hearing this, the emperor glanced at the Imperial Noble Consort and finally regained a sliver of his reason.
Yun Qingluo suddenly hesitated and seemed troubled as she said, "I only saw that eunuch once in the courtyard of the Empress's palace. All the concubines in the harem were there at the time, so I'm not sure if he was one of the Empress's men."
"Do you remember what he looked like?" the Imperial Noble Consort asked hurriedly.
Yun Qingluo frowned, thought for a long time, and shook her head, saying, "I can't remember. He was leading the way with his head down the whole time. I just felt like I'd seen him somewhere before, but I really can't remember what he looked like."
The emperor was furious. "You know nothing when I ask you anything. What use are you?"
Yun Qingluo lowered her head and said slowly, "Your Majesty, I am your sister-in-law. How can you speak of your sister-in-law like that?"
The emperor was furious, "I have no sister-in-law like you."
Yun Qingluo looked up at the emperor in shock, feigning surprise, "What? Your Majesty, you've never treated my prince as a younger brother?"
The emperor was so angry he almost vomited blood. He said he didn't have such a brother or sister-in-law, but he never said that Mo Beichen wasn't his brother.
If those in the court who support the regent heard this, they would surely nag him to death.
Seeing that the Emperor was so angry he had lost his mind, the Imperial Noble Consort quickly asked Yun Qingluo another question, "Didn't anything else happen?"
Yun Qingluo looked at the Imperial Noble Consort with pure eyes and asked, "Does the Noble Consort mean that something has happened?"
The Imperial Noble Consort panicked. Why was this damned wretch so stubborn?
Seeing the displeased look in the Emperor's eyes, he secretly harbored resentment towards Yun Qingluo.
Seeing that he couldn't get any information, the emperor waved his hand impatiently, "Someone, quickly take the princess away to tidy up, and then invite the imperial physician to treat her, so that she doesn't develop any chronic illness."
"Yes, Your Majesty." Two palace maids entered from outside, bowed, and helped Yun Qingluo up.
After bowing her head to thank him, Yun Qingluo was helped down.
Yun Tao followed behind, her clothes still wet; An Jiu was nowhere to be seen.
The palace maid helped Yun Qingluo to a palace, changed her into clean clothes, and helped her lie down on the bed.
After a while, the imperial physician came over to take his pulse.
The imperial physician stroked his beard, a flash of shock and panic crossing his eyes. He glanced hastily at Yun Qingluo, grabbed his medicine box, and ran off.
Yun Qingluo stared in surprise at the imperial physician's retreating figure. What was going on?
Yun Tao poured Yun Qingluo a cup of hot water. "Your Highness, this imperial physician is quite strange. Why did he leave without saying a word after taking her pulse? What strange illness does he have? He's not as good as the doctors in our palace."
Yun Qingluo was also completely confused. She slowly shook her head and looked at Yun Tao, saying, "You should hurry up and go next door to change your clothes, otherwise if you get sick, there will be no one to take care of me."
Yun Tao was initially unwilling to leave Yun Qingluo, but upon hearing Yun Qingluo's last sentence, she immediately nodded in agreement and ran out.
She cannot get sick; the princess cannot live without her, and she must take good care of the princess.
The room fell silent.
Yun Qingluo pursed her lips slightly, "Xiao Yi, how am I feeling?"
The imperial physician just now looked like he'd lost his entire family, and she even started to wonder if there was something wrong with her body.
Xiao Yi's tone was harsh: "You're pregnant, didn't you know?"
The clouds fell as if struck by lightning, startling the cup in my hand so much that it fell onto the carpet on the floor.
She glanced at her stomach and said stiffly, "What did you say?"
Xiao Yi said with a mischievous grin, "You're newly pregnant, less than a month along, so don't get too excited."
Yun Qingluo: "Damn it."
Pregnant?
She's pregnant? How could she be pregnant?
Xiao Yi: "?"
The owner actually swore?
Yun Qingluo was on the verge of tears. Damn it, she had been so overwhelmed by the joy of her rebirth that she had forgotten about contraception.
Good heavens, she's pregnant before she's even eighteen?
This is truly hard to accept.
Seeing that Yun Qingluo looked like she couldn't catch her breath, Xiao Yi kindly explained, "Women here can get married at fourteen or fifteen, and many have children at sixteen. One more or one less won't make a difference, so what's there to be upset about?"
Yun Qingluo said, "Feelings aren't like you being pregnant, of course you wouldn't feel anything."
Xiao Yi said with interest, "I want to get pregnant but I can't."
Yun Qingluo: "..."
Her hand unconsciously stroked her flat belly; a little life was growing inside—it was such a strange feeling.
Suddenly, Yun Qingluo's face turned pale. "The imperial physician ran off in such a hurry just now because of this?"
"If the emperor knew I was pregnant, then I...I..." she stammered.
Yun Qingluo suddenly panicked. She could escape unscathed on her own, but now that she was carrying an unstable little life, leaving the palace seemed difficult.
Xiao Yi said calmly, "What are you afraid of? With me here, nothing will happen."
Yun Qingluo hurriedly asked, "What do you mean?"
Xiao Yi explained, "Although you are less than a month pregnant, just in case, I changed your pulse. No matter how skilled the imperial physician is, he won't be able to diagnose your pregnancy."
Yun Qingluo breathed a sigh of relief; it was good that no diagnosis could be made.
The emperor wished Mo Beichen dead, so how could he possibly want him to have a successor? In this palace, no matter how capable she was, she couldn't defeat the master of the palace.
The worst thing is that it's impossible to guard against it all.
Yun Qingluo suddenly asked again, "Then why did he run away?"
Xiao Yi laughed and said, "I changed your pulse to indicate that you have a cold constitution and a cold uterus, making it extremely difficult for you to get pregnant. In short, you are infertile."
"So, the imperial physician was so excited because he felt he had discovered a big secret?" Yun Qingluo raised an eyebrow.
