Chapter 139 I Care More and More
Quan Minghe loves and hates this way of her. She used to be afraid of him at every turn, which made him distressed, but now she is not afraid of him at all and acts recklessly, which gives him a headache again.
Seeing that he didn't say anything, Shen Yuning continued, "If your majesty has any punishment, I will gladly accept it. Please send someone to inform me."
After saying that, she wrapped herself in the quilt, lowered her eyes and ignored Quan Minghe.
Quan Minghe couldn't help but sigh softly, and his eyes became softer.
"I was just asking casually. You are pregnant now, so don't get angry or it will hurt your body."
"How could I punish you?"
There was a soothing tone in his voice.
Shen Yuning still replied sullenly: "If I were not pregnant, Your Majesty would have banished me to the cold palace long ago. I really have to thank you for this child."
Quan Minghe's eyes flickered slightly.
If she was not pregnant, she would indeed be punished in order to silence the gossips, but it would only be a minor punishment.
She will never be punished severely.
But looking at her angry look at this moment, I was afraid that she was angry.
He had been with her for a long time and knew when to coax her, and sometimes he had to tell some white lies.
"I have always been clear about rewards and punishments. If it is true as you said, that it was Liu Zhaoyi who held you back, then Mimi is naturally not at fault. Even if Mimi is not pregnant, I will not punish you."
Quan Minghe said gently, paused, and then continued: "I know you like flowers. Youdu, the closest to Ganjing, is a prosperous and lively place. I bought 100,000 acres of land in the suburbs of Youdu and divided it into four areas, planting flowers of four seasons respectively."
"It is winter now, and the orchids are blooming beautifully. I have had all kinds of orchids transplanted here."
"When you get better, I'll take you there to see him."
This was originally a surprise he planned to give her after the New Year.
He thought that after the New Year, he would not be so busy anymore. Then he could take her to Youdu to understand the people's sentiments and go for a walk in the flower fields together to make her happy.
But I didn't expect this to happen today. Seeing how upset she was, I could only tell her in advance so that she would feel better.
Shen Yuning opened her eyes, and her big eyes were instantly filled with confusion.
Has Kwon Myung Hyuk changed his personality?
This was probably the first gift he gave himself that was truly thoughtful.
Quan Minghe saw that the defensiveness and dissatisfaction in her eyes towards him had weakened, and he felt relieved.
It seems that she still likes this flower field.
Quan Minghe pressed forward, knelt on one knee on the bed, and supported himself on the wall with his hands.
Shen Yuning was completely surrounded in the middle.
She didn't react for a moment, and before she could come to her senses, Quan Minghe leaned forward and kissed her.
At first it was just a light kiss, but gradually, both of them were immersed in it, and before they knew it, they were both lying on the bed.
Quan Minghe's breathing became heavier, a warm breath filled the air, and he felt a heat rising from the bottom of his heart.
He secretly thought that this was not good. If he continued like this, he would lose his composure.
Their lips separated, and his hand gently placed on Shen Yuning's belly, his eyes full of tenderness and affection.
He rested his head on Shen Yuning's shoulder, his warm breath gently blew into her ear, and whispered: "Mianmei is pregnant with our child. I am very happy, happier than ever before."
Shen Yuning was stunned for a moment, coming back to her senses from the passionate kiss just now.
A hint of complexity flashed in her eyes, and she immediately turned her head, kissed the corner of Quan Minghe's mouth, and said softly: "I am very happy too."
Quan Minghe was afraid that if he stayed any longer, he would not be able to resist indulging in the gentle arms of her, so he stood up from the bed, closed his eyes slightly, and tried to calm his already disordered breathing.
"I'm going to the Weiyang Palace to handle government affairs. You should have a good rest. I'll come to see you in the evening."
Quan Minghe raised his hand to straighten the dragon robe which had become a little messy due to the intimacy just now, then turned and left the bedroom.
Shen Yuning sat up and raised her hand to touch her lips, which seemed to still retain the warmth of the kiss just now.
The corners of her mouth rose unconsciously, forming a meaningful arc.
The better Quan Minghe treats her now, it means that he cares about her more.
And this is exactly what she wants. Her plans will be more stable and foolproof.
Thinking of this, Shen Yuning's eyes flashed with a different light.
After Quan Minghe returned to Weiyang Palace, he immediately summoned Su Fangyu.
She entered the palace and told the situation today one by one: "Your Majesty, the people standing behind Concubine Shen today are Concubine Zuo and the eldest princess. When the concubine asked, the eldest princess also admitted that she accidentally touched Concubine Shen."
Su Fangyu reported truthfully.
Liu Shihan's calculations for today's situation were truly brilliant, and everything that happened seemed to be able to be explained away by the word "coincidence".
But the only thing that happened was that Shen Yuning pushed her, which was witnessed by everyone and was a foregone conclusion.
It’s a pity that Liu Shihan had planned everything, but she never expected that Shen Yuning was pregnant.
Quan Minghe lowered his brows and fell into deep thought.
Although he usually doesn't care about the affairs of the harem, he knows that Concubine Zuo has been currying favor with Liu Shihan over the years.
She only gave birth to a princess, so Liu Shihan didn't have too many guards against her. Over time, the two of them were in the same camp.
Thinking about it this way, perhaps what happened today was really a play directed and acted by Liu Shihan herself.
Quan Minghe's eyes darkened slightly.
Then he asked Su Fangyu about some details.
Not long after Su Fangyu left, Li Ming came in and reported, "Your Majesty, Imperial Physician Zhou wants to see you."
Quan Minghe was confused for a moment.
Li Ming replied, "Your Majesty, it's Doctor Zhou who is taking care of Concubine Shen."
Quan Minghe frowned instantly.
Could it be that something was wrong with her fetus?
"Let him in."
Zhou Qi walked into the hall, bowed respectfully and said, "Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you."
"Why did you come to see me? But what's wrong with Concubine Shen?"
"Your Majesty, I'm afraid Concubine Shen's pregnancy is in danger."
Zhou Qi lowered his head, not daring to look at His Majesty's expression, and spoke with gritted teeth.
"What did you say?!"
Quan Minghe's eyes suddenly became sharp, and his voice unconsciously rose a few notes.
"Concubine Shen has always had uterine coldness. She should have taken good care of her body before getting pregnant."
Zhou Qi mustered up the courage to explain: "But now Concubine Shen's uterine cold has not yet recovered, but she is pregnant. This situation is not only extremely unfavorable to the mother, but also to the heir in her belly."
Quan Minghe's expression turned extremely ugly, with anger burning in his eyes.
He scolded, "I support you, the Imperial Hospital, not for you to tell me these things! What I want is for Concubine Shen and her child to be safe."
"Your Majesty, before I came here, I had already carefully discussed Concubine Shen's medical history with the gynecologist Dr. Li from the Imperial Hospital. If we force Concubine Shen to give birth to this baby, the chance of success... is only..."
When Zhou Qi said this, his voice trembled slightly and he didn't dare to continue.
Quan Minghe's heart sank, and he asked with difficulty: "How many?"
"Your Majesty, 40%."
Quan Minghe pursed his lips, and a cold air emanated from his body.
He was still immersed in the joy of having a child with her, and this news was like a bolt from the blue.
Zhou Qi continued: "And...if Concubine Shen has any accidents during her pregnancy, then...the consequences will be immeasurable."
Quan Minghe naturally understood the meaning of this statement.
The harem is a place of right and wrong. If the mother is not healthy and suffers even the slightest external injury, it is very likely that two lives will be lost.
He clenched his hands into fists, his knuckles turned white, his eyes grew darker, and for a moment, he didn't know what to do.
