He suspected that there was collusion between people inside and outside the palace, and that someone in the harem wanted to deal with Sheng Xiyan and the royal heir in her belly. He guessed that the Queen Mother and the Queen were the most likely culprits, but he had no evidence.
Sheng Xiyan was in a bad mood because of the rumors and couldn't eat for several days.
Xuan Ling held a bowl of Buddha Jumps Over the Wall and coaxed softly, "Yan Yan, have another bite."
Sheng Xiyan said unhappily, "Xuanlang, I feel sick."
I had no appetite, but I woke up in the middle of the night because I was hungry.
