After seeing her stand up, the Queen Mother asked someone to quickly find her a seat. Then she looked at the concubines below with a stern face, especially the leading imperial concubine, and said in a calm voice:
"Don't think that I don't have time to take care of the affairs of the harem. I am deaf and blind. If there is such a thing that confuses right and wrong again, I will not forgive it easily."
The concubines hurriedly responded and no longer dared to look down on Ye Jinyun.
The Queen Mother felt very embarrassed about what had just happened, so she asked Ye Jinyun about his well-being, and Ye Jinyun answered her questions one by one in a nice way.
The imperial concubine sat on the chair, listening to the greetings between the empress dowager and Ye Jinyun, her nails digging deep into her palms.
I really didn't expect that Yun Zhaoyi was quite capable. Not only did she fail to get the empress dowager to punish her, but she was also scolded. It's really impossible to keep her.
Concubine Shu sat opposite her, sipping tea in small sips, looking at her mortal enemy, Concubine Gui, who was so angry, with a hint of disdain on her lips.
The imperial concubine is so stupid that she actually wants to deal with Yun Zhaoyi without even considering whether she is her match.
Originally, when she heard that Yun Zhaoyi was favored, she was very jealous of her, but when she saw her in person for the first time just now, she knew that she had lost.
With such a beautiful woman by his side, the emperor will never have her attention in the future. They are not on the same level at all.
If she had been thinking about competing with the Imperial Concubine for that position before, then in the future, with Yun Zhaoyi in the harem, there would be no place for her to be either the Imperial Concubine or the Imperial Concubine.
She was very clear about her position. Instead of doing meaningless things that would not be worth the effort, she might as well wake up now. At least as long as she had the position of concubine, her second half of life would not be too miserable.
Having made up his mind, he began to greet Ye Jinyun. After all, he would probably have to rely on her mood for his livelihood in the future.
"Empress Dowager, no wonder the Emperor likes Sister Yun Zhaoyi so much. She is beautiful and kind, and I, your concubine, also like her."
Ye Jinyun looked at the concubine who suddenly showed kindness to her and was a little confused. She didn't seem to know this beautiful woman.
But the concubine was not annoyed. She covered her mouth and chuckled: "Sister Yun Zhaoyi, I am the Shufei."
Ye Jinyun immediately bowed to her: "I hope your Majesty is well."
She had heard of Shufei, who was one of the emperor's favorite concubines. She was very beautiful and had always been at odds with the imperial concubine who was also favored by the emperor.
Unexpectedly, today, she took the initiative to show goodwill to herself, which was completely different from the imperial concubine who regarded her as a thorn in her side.
This made Ye Jinyun a little confused for a moment.
But he also chatted with her in response to her friendly greetings.
Ye Jinyun and Concubine Shu were talking to the Empress Dowager, while the other concubines were also chatting in low voices.
At this moment, a discordant voice suddenly rang out in the hall:
"vomit".
Everyone's voices stopped abruptly, and they all pricked up their ears to listen.
"vomit".
There was another sound, and this time they heard it clearly, and turned their eyes to the place where the sound came from.
Ye Jinyun also heard it, and at the same time as Concubine Shu, he stopped talking and turned to look at the person who made the sound.
Ye Jinyun saw that it was Chu Mingrou.
She was covering her mouth and retching continuously. There was an unfinished snack on the small table next to her seat.
Ye Jinyun raised his eyebrows, feeling that this scene was very familiar from palace fighting dramas.
Sure enough, the Queen Mother, who was sitting in the upper seat, immediately asked nervously:
"Chu Zhaoyi, what's wrong with you? Did you eat something wrong?"
Chu Mingrou covered her mouth with one hand and whispered: "Empress Dowager, I don't know why, but I suddenly feel a little nauseous when eating pastries."
The Queen Mother was surprised. "Are you like this today, or have you been like this for a long time?"
"Your Majesty, I've been experiencing this feeling every time I eat these past few days. Not only that, I often feel very tired and sleepy."
The Queen Mother was even more excited. "Then, did you have your period this month?"
When asked about this, Chu Mingrou suddenly blushed shyly: "Well, not yet. It's been delayed for about ten days."
The Queen Mother could no longer sit still and nodded repeatedly, "Good. Good, very good. Call the imperial physician, call the imperial physician quickly."
Immediately, a palace maid ran to call the imperial physician.
Chu Mingrou looked at the Queen Mother with a puzzled look on her face, "Queen Mother, am I sick? Why are you so anxious to call the imperial physician?"
The Queen Mother walked over to her and took her hand. "Good girl, please sit down. Let's wait for the doctor to come."
"Okay." Chu Mingrou sat down obediently, with a hint of a triumphant smile in her eyes as she lowered her head.
…
The imperial physician arrived soon, and the empress dowager asked him to check on Chu Mingrou immediately.
The imperial physician took the order, stepped forward, took out a silk handkerchief, placed it on her outstretched wrist, and then stretched out his fingers to diagnose.
After examining the patient for a while, he put away the handkerchief, indicating that he had finished the examination, and reported to the Queen Mother:
"Replying to the Queen Mother, Chu Zhaoyi's pulse looks like a slippery pulse, but the pulse is still shallow. I dare not jump to conclusion. It will take some time before I can make a diagnosis."
The Queen Mother was very excited when she heard this, which means that it is very likely that there is a chance. As long as there is a chance, it will be fine.
"Okay, okay, you can check Chu Zhaoyi's pulse again after a while, and you should pay more attention to her health during this period."
"Yes, I obey your order."
Ye Jinyun watched from the side and couldn't help rolling her eyes in her heart. It was just as bloody as she had imagined.
It is exactly the same as the TV series, without any novelty at all.
However, she was skeptical about Chu Mingrou's pregnancy.
The reason was nothing more than what she heard Chu Mingrou talking to her family at that time, and it seemed that they mentioned medicine and the crime of losing one's head.
Well, it seems that she still needs to pay attention to this aspect.
She could see clearly that the two sisters of the imperial concubine now hated her to the core. If she had this handle in her hand, if they attacked her in the future, she would have the opportunity to fight back.
When the empress dowager heard this exciting news, she immediately sent someone to invite Chu Mingrou to the inner hall to rest, and also sent someone to call the emperor.
…
Inside the Imperial Study
When Mo Qiyuan heard the palace maid beside the Queen Mother report that Chu Mingrou seemed to be pregnant, an ambiguous emotion flashed across his face.
He tapped his fingers on the dragon table.
"Yes, I understand. Please go back and report to the Queen Mother. I have something else to deal with and will come over later."
"Hmm", the palace maid who came to report the news retreated.
Mo Qiyuan pondered the news.
Pregnancy? Oh, is this what the Chu family is planning? They really know how to "play to his liking".
"Hide one".
When Yin heard the emperor calling him, he immediately appeared in the palace:
"I'm here."
Mo Qiyuan raised his eyes to look at him, expressionless and said:
"Give orders to have someone keep a close eye on the Chu family's every move and report any developments immediately."
"Yes, I obey your command."
