After a few days, Ye Jinyun finally confirmed that she was fine after daily diagnosis by the imperial physician, and begged the emperor to let her return to Qingyue Palace.
Otherwise, she would be too bored staying in Chengqian Palace every day.
After Ye Jinyun returned to Qingyue Palace, Mo Qiyuan was worried and sent many secret guards to protect her safety. After all, the person who secretly attacked her had not been found yet, and it would be bad if he attacked her again.
In the past few days, Yin Yi also found out the truth about Ye Jinrong's madness.
It was discovered that after she caught a cold, the prescription given to her by the imperial physician had been tampered with, and several herbs that were not included in the prescription had been added.
Moreover, the medicinal herbs and the residue of the medicine she had drunk recently had already been identified by the imperial physician. If these extra herbs were added to her prescription and she drank it every day, the medicine would invade her body for a long time, and she would first have nightmares, and then gradually hallucinations would appear.
What's worse, if it comes into contact with medicines or incense products made from a plant called "Illusion Grass" that grows in the north, it will cause it to go crazy instantly and become extremely powerful.
After Yin Yi found out the information and reported it, Mo Qiyuan immediately confirmed that the strange fragrance that Ye Jinyun smelled that day must have contained the ingredients of this "Illusion Heart Grass".
Moreover, this plant only grows in the northern border, within the territory of the Beirong Kingdom, which means that this is not just a simple murder.
The last time he was assassinated in the mountains, when he had people clean up the bodies of the assassins, he found tattoos on them that belonged to the Northern Rong Kingdom's assassins.
This time, this 'Illusion Heart Grass' comes from the territory of Beirong, and it is hard not to connect them together.
Moreover, in that assassination, he was just one step away from catching the spy around him, but for some reason his plan was suddenly discovered, and the enemy went into hiding and has not made any move since then.
Now it seems that this person must have been lurking by his side all the time, and should be in the harem, otherwise a concubine like Ye Jinrong in the deep palace could not be attacked from the outside.
…
Mo Qiyuan told Ye Jinyun the news so that she could be on guard. He also instructed Lin Qingtang to take good care of her at all times.
After all, Lin Qingtang was not just an ordinary concubine in the harem to him, but a sharp knife that he and the Lin family had planted in the hearts of the harem and the people of the former dynasty.
The responsibility of the Lin family's children is to be loyal to the emperor and serve the country, and protecting Ye Jinyun and the baby in her womb is the greatest reward for Lin Qingtang.
Moreover, she was on good terms with Ye Jinyun, so Mo Qiyuan felt relieved to hand the person over to her.
In addition, after finding out that Ye Jinrong was crazy, Mo Qiyuan ordered her to be demoted to a commoner and to become a nun.
Because of this, Ye Jinyun's stepmother Yang cried all day long at home, saying that Ye Jinyun had brought bad luck to her daughter, turning her from a favorite concubine into a nun.
Ye's father was so angry that he confined her to his home for three months to prevent her outspoken words from reaching the emperor's ears and implicating the Ye family.
Ye Jinyun originally didn't know about these things, but after her elder brother heard that Ye Jinrong pushed her off the cliff, he was afraid that something might happen to her, so he wrote a letter and had someone hand it to her.
When Ye Jinyun read the contents of the letter, she felt that her elder brother was indeed the most sensible person in the Ye family.
He did not beg Ye Jinrong to plead with the emperor just because Ye Jinrong was his biological sister and she and his mother were punished at home.
On the contrary, he asked her to protect herself at all costs, saying that the emperor had spared Ye Jinrong's life and only made her a nun, which was the emperor's greatest leniency towards her and the Ye family for the sake of Ye Jinyun.
He also told her not to worry, saying that he would take part in the imperial examination next year, and if he could become an official in the court, he would definitely help her in the former dynasty.
Ye Jinyun felt it was very thoughtful that her elder brother always supported her.
…
As summer approaches, the days are getting hotter and hotter, and Ye Jinyun's pregnancy is becoming more and more obvious.
Now she has passed the first three months, and the emperor has announced the news of her pregnancy to the six palaces, and directly promoted her to the position of concubine, retaining the title "Yun".
Countless rewards of supplements and various treasures were carried into Qingyue Palace, making her dazzled.
If she didn't live alone in a spacious room now, she probably wouldn't be able to put all these things in.
…
This day
Ye Jinyun and Lin Qingtang sat in the room and chatted, playing with a jade ruyi that they had picked out from those treasures.
The material of this jade ruyi is warm in winter and cool in summer. It feels very comfortable in the hands of a pregnant woman whose body temperature is a little high due to pregnancy.
Lin Qingtang glanced at her.
"Oh, stop pinching me. Is the emperor coming today? If he is coming, I will go back first."
Ye Jinyun laughed, knowing what she was thinking.
Because ever since Lin Qingtang received the order to protect her closely, he has been with her every day.
Sometimes when the emperor came over, he would hug her and ask about her well-being, which made Lin Qingtang so embarrassed that she dug her toes into the ground, and she couldn't stand it.
So later, whenever she learned that the emperor was coming, she would immediately slip away.
This is not Lin Qingtang's fault. Ever since Mo Qiyuan knew that Ye Jinyun was pregnant, he has been holding her in his hands even more than before and treating her like a treasure.
Whenever he had free time, he would go to Qingyue Palace to accompany Ye Jinyun, and would even stay in her room at night. However, he would just hug her to sleep and did not dare to do anything to her.
Just like that, his cautious look made Ye Jinyun suspicious.
Is she pregnant or is she carrying a bomb?
