Fang Shulan listened to his words, a glimmer of hope flashed in her eyes.
She scowled and took his hand and placed it on her belly.
"This is our child. Can you really bear it?"
She was born beautiful, with such a pretty face that when she looked up to ask for help, no one could refuse her.
Zhou Linghai looked into her eyes, with a bit of struggle in his eyes: "My Lady, this child really cannot be kept."
"I need to see the doctor first."
She couldn't find a doctor during her confinement.
Even though she felt that there was an 80% chance that she was pregnant, she still felt uneasy because no one had examined her.
"Whether or not to keep this child, I can only confirm it by finding an imperial physician to see me."
As Fang Shulan spoke, she subconsciously raised her head and looked at Zhou Linghai.
"You'll help me, right?"
*******
It was a clear day after the snow, and after one night the eaves under the red walls were covered with thick icicles.
Early in the morning, a palace maid reported that several plum trees outside the backyard of the Hehuan Palace had bloomed.
"Is it true?" Shen Fu was very happy after hearing the news.
Last year, there were several plum trees at the gate of this yard, but they were too small at that time and had not bloomed.
I didn't expect that the plum blossoms would bloom just after it snowed.
After breakfast, Chen Fu was thinking about the plum trees, so she took some people and wanted to go and have a look at them in person.
When Zi Su heard this, she wanted to follow too.
After she woke up, her body became weaker and weaker day by day.
Ruo was already able to get out of bed and walk for a while. When she heard that Chen Fu was going to see Mei Xi, she wanted to follow too.
A group of people supported Chen Fu and walked towards the backyard in a mighty manner.
Zi Su was still weak and didn't need anyone to support her. She followed Shen Fu happily on her crutches.
The plum blossoms in the backyard are not a rare variety.
They were all ordinary red plum blossoms, but they bloomed early. Chen Fu found them interesting and walked around for a while.
After I came back, I picked a few branches of plum blossoms.
As soon as the group of people walked into the corridor, they saw someone waiting at the door.
"That is..."
The man stood on the corridor, his tall and straight figure was thin and slender. The dark blue silk-carved grey squirrel cloak on his body covered him tightly, and it was impossible to tell at a glance who the person was.
However, the little palace maid who was serving Zi Su was very sharp-eyed and recognized the person at a glance: "Isn't that Imperial Doctor He?"
As soon as the words fell, Zi Su, who was leaning on a cane, changed his expression and quietly hid behind Chen Fu.
Chen Fu hadn't noticed it, but when she saw it was Doctor He, she walked up to him and asked, "Doctor He, why are you here today?"
After He Congzhi was possessed by her, he came to her less often in order to avoid being noticed.
Normally, he only relied on Zi Su to take his pulse, so he just came here.
Day is not the time to see a doctor.
Doctor He was standing behind Xiao Guizi. After hearing this, he stepped forward and saluted: "I would like to see the queen."
Chen Fu saw a layer of snow on his shoulders and knew that he had been waiting for a while, so she said, "Come in and tell me what you have to say."
He Congzhi followed Shen Fu into the house.
Zi Su and his men followed behind him, and seeing this, he subconsciously wanted to follow in.
He had only taken two steps when he stopped again because he thought of something.
"Sister Zisu, what happened?" Xi Que held her shoulders and had to stop when he saw this.
Zi Su stood in the corner, watching Doctor He and Xiao Guizi enter the house.
When the door in front of her closed, she bit her lip, shook her head and walked away: "Go ahead."
Inside the house, Shen Fu had no idea about this.
She took off her cloak, stood in front of the stove and warmed her hands.
When she felt warm all over, she turned to He Congzhi at the door and said, "Is there any new news from Yikun Palace?"
He Congzhi stood in the center of the hall, the snow on his cloak was melted into water by the heat.
Drops of rain gradually slid down the cloak, making a dripping sound.
He Congzhi nodded: "Your Majesty's guess is correct."
"I followed the Majesty's instructions and gave Shu Wanyi medicine every day. Until yesterday, someone came to the Imperial Hospital to ask for an imperial physician for Shu Wanyi."
He Congzhi said this and put the thing in his sleeve on the table.
Chen Fu looked down at the gilded hairpin with a swallowtail butterfly and rubies on the table.
There is no worry about food and drink in Yiku Palace, but Fang Shulan has been favored for too long, and the monthly allowance is probably wasted.
It hasn't been long since he was put under house arrest, but he has already spent all the money he had.
I can only live with jewelry.
"What does she want?" Chen Fu picked up the hairpin and played with it casually in her hand.
He Congzhi's eyes fell on the hairpin, pinching it with his fingertips as if from water chestnuts. His eyes subconsciously became a little dim.
He lowered his head and said, "He said Shu Wanyi is not feeling well and wants to call a doctor to see her."
"Your Majesty did not say that the imperial physician is not allowed to treat Shu Wanyi."
Chen Fu played with the ruby hanging under the hairpin with a playful look on her face.
His Majesty did not punish Shu Wanyi too much.
She was demoted from noble concubine to Wanyi and was confined to the Yiku Palace.
She was still given the title of Shu, and she also lived in the Yiku Palace.
At first, Chen Fu secretly wondered whether His Majesty still had some feelings for Shu Wanyi.
But later on I thought about it, and felt that it was not the case. It is obvious that His Majesty has something against her.
The higher she climbed, the less cautious she was towards the Emperor as before.
Admiration and love are present when you first get together, but now that two people are too familiar with each other, there is less distance between them.
Shen Furu's position was raised, but her affection for the Emperor decreased.
Therefore, even though Shu Wanyi committed a serious mistake, His Majesty did not punish her severely.
I don't know if he did it to make her angry or if he did it on purpose.
"What does the Madam mean?" He Congzhi raised his head. When he saw Chen Fu's expression, he was stunned.
Chen Fu didn't look at him, but just put the hairpin in her hand on the table: "Since Your Majesty has not said no, then you should go to Yikun Palace."
"Just be careful." He Congzhi nodded, kowtowed and left.
After everyone left, Shen Fu asked, "Is there any news from the Qianqing Palace in the past few days?"
Seeing this, Xiao Guizi couldn't help but glance at Chen Fu: "Your Majesty goes to the court every day, and has been resting in the Palace of Heavenly Purity these days."
"Madame Yi sent me news that the fifth prince is very sick and told you not to worry. The rest are gone."
Tuan'er was raised in the Qianqing Palace because Chen Fu had done it on purpose to anger the Emperor.
But after she was raised in the Qianqing Palace, the Emperor did not say anything about sending her over, so she never mentioned it again.
As it is, keeping the relationship between us and His Majesty frozen is not a long-term solution.
Shen Fu's fingers kept drumming on the table.
She deliberately played a trick, thinking that His Majesty would give her a way out, but it turned out that several days had passed and there was no movement in the Palace of Heavenly Purity...
Shen Fu tapped her fingers randomly, feeling a little upset.
While pondering whether he should take the initiative to give way to the Emperor by pretending to see Tuan'er.
At this moment, there was a knock on the door.
"Your Highness," Lin An's voice rang out at the door, "Your Highness is ill. Your Highness, please come with me quickly."
