"Qiuhua, come in!"
When Qiu Hua saw her master covered in red marks again, and they looked much worse than before, she immediately realized what had happened.
Her hand trembled, and she knelt down in front of Jiang Jingyue, her eyes filled with heartache.
"My lord, this mark on you, it's not a mosquito bite, is it? Did the Emperor do this?"
When she heard Jiang Jingyue nod, Qiu Hua hesitated for a moment, but finally mustered up her courage.
"Your Majesty, last time... last time when we were still in the manor, those marks, Your Majesty..."
Qiu Hua was a little excited, but Jiang Jingyue immediately understood what she meant.
Seeing Qiu Hua so worried she was almost crying, she couldn't help but laugh.
"Qiuhua, it's all the Emperor's doing, you don't need to worry. I only found out yesterday myself."
These words really put Qiu Hua's mind at ease, and she immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
"Your Majesty, this servant will go get some medicine to help you clean yourself. The Emperor is so insensitive to women!"
Qiu Hua couldn't help but tear up when she saw so many red marks on her master's body.
"Your Majesty, could you please ask the Emperor to be a little gentler next time? It breaks my heart to see you like this."
Jiang Jingyue smiled and nodded at Qiu Hua, then changed the subject and looked at Qiu Hua to ask a question.
"Qiuhua, have you prepared anything to eat? I was so tired last night, and now I'm starving. I really want to eat."
Looking at her master's pitiful appearance, Qiu Hua really didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
"Your Majesty, the Emperor had already ordered people to prepare when he left. It should be arriving soon. Let me help you up."
Jiang Jingyue was indeed in a condition where she needed someone to help her up, so she didn't hesitate and immediately reached out to let Qiu Hua help her up.
However, Qiu Hua was also a weak woman, and she couldn't pull Jiang Jingyue, who was over 1.6 meters tall, at all.
"Master, we can't lift it."
Just then, the door creaked open.
The first thing Jiang Jingyue saw was a pair of long boots embroidered with dragon heads, and then she slowly moved upwards.
When she saw who was in front of her, Jiang Jingyue immediately tried to get out of bed, but feeling unwell all over, she fell back down as soon as she got up.
"Your Majesty, I pay my respects. I hope Your Majesty will forgive me, but I am not feeling well and am unable to rise to perform the ceremony."
When she said this, Jiang Jingyue didn't look at Mo Yuhan. Mo Yuhan felt somewhat guilty; he had indeed done something wrong.
The little woman kept begging for mercy, but he just couldn't help himself. Even after she fell asleep, he still didn't stop. No wonder she's so angry now.
"Yueyue, from now on, when you see me, you don't need to bow. Just look up at me, and I will apologize to you. It was my fault. What do you need? I will help you."
As soon as Mo Yuhan said those words, Jiang Jingyue looked up at him.
Her eyes were full of surprise. She hadn't expected that the emperor, the supreme ruler, would apologize to someone. This really surprised Jiang Jingyue.
Jiang Jingyue suddenly wanted to test where the man in front of her had the bottom line.
So she lay on the bed and let out a soft moan, then fell silent.
Mo Yuhan indulged her, and in no time came to her side and pulled her into his arms.
"Yueyue, are you feeling unwell? Let me take a look at you."
After Mo Yuhan finished speaking, he was about to lift Jiang Jingyue's blanket. Jiang Jingyue immediately rolled into the blanket, wrapping herself up even more tightly, only revealing a pair of big, dark eyes staring at Mo Yuhan.
Seeing her like this, Mo Yuhan felt a tickle in his heart and couldn't help but lean down and kiss Jiang Jingyue's full forehead.
Just then, Jiang Jingyue's stomach suddenly growled, and upon hearing the sound, her face flushed bright red.
Hearing this voice, Mo Yuhan, who was standing next to him, couldn't help but chuckle softly; his voice was deep and pleasant.
"Yueyue, are you hungry? I'll take you to get something to eat."
Without waiting for Jiang Jingyue's response, he suddenly picked her up from the bed.
Jiang Jingyue was startled by his sudden action and instinctively reached out to hug Mo Yuhan's neck.
At first, she didn't even realize what was happening, but once she did, she immediately started struggling.
"Your Majesty, please put me down. I will walk by myself."
Seeing that Jiang Jingyue was struggling, Mo Yuhan did not insist. However, when he put Jiang Jingyue down, he asked her with some concern.
"Yueyue, are you alright? Judging from your appearance, you probably can't walk."
Jiang Jingyue raised her head proudly.
"Your Majesty, don't underestimate me. I'm sure I can do it. Please put me down quickly, I can walk by myself."
Mo Yuhan carefully placed Jiang Jingyue on the ground. Jiang Jingyue instantly felt her legs go weak and she could barely stand.
Fortunately, Mo Yuhan caught her in time, preventing her from falling to the ground.
This time, Mo Yuhan didn't give her a chance to refuse and picked her up again.
"Yueyue, let me carry you! You don't have the strength."
Jiang Jingyue immediately reached out and lightly punched Mo Yuhan's chest, speaking somewhat angrily.
"It's all your fault. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have ended up like this."
Mo Yuhan couldn't help but reach out and touch his nose, feeling a little embarrassed. He hadn't done it on purpose; he could only blame the little woman for being too delicious.
"Yes, it's all my fault, Yueyue, don't be angry. I won't do it again next time."
When Jiang Jingyue heard him say that, she didn't believe him at all. If you could believe what a man says, pigs could fly.
However, the food in the palace seemed to be quite good. Jiang Jingyue's eyes widened as she looked at the dazzling array of food.
By the time she finished eating, her stomach was already round and full. She couldn't help but cover her stomach, feeling a little embarrassed. "Your Majesty, could you help me walk around? I've eaten too much, and my stomach is a little uncomfortable."
Mo Hanyu was of course fine, but what he didn't know was that the scene of him supporting Jiang Jingyue while Jiang Jingyue supported her belly immediately reached the Empress Dowager's ears.
When the Empress Dowager heard the news, she dropped her chopsticks and jumped up from her chair.
"Quickly, help me go see Consort Jing and see if she is pregnant."
At this moment, the Empress Dowager was also suddenly confused. Jiang Jingyue had only been in the palace for one day. Even if she was capable of giving birth, it was impossible for her to be pregnant so quickly!
However, the Empress Dowager hasn't realized it yet; her mind is filled with thoughts of the grandson she'll soon be able to hold.
