Outside is a world covered in silver. White snowflakes are falling, making the earth look like a dream.
But in Xiyan Palace, it was warm as spring.
Throughout the hall, every corner has a burning charcoal fire, emitting a comfortable warmth.
Everyone in the entire Eastern Palace knows how much His Highness values Concubine Su.
Every detail was carefully taken care of, just to make Concubine Su feel the meticulous care.
Su Jingyao sat gracefully on the couch. She was wearing a gorgeous brocade robe, her hair cascading down her shoulders like a waterfall, her skin was as white as snow, and her face was absolutely beautiful.
On the other side of the couch, Li Jing was taking her pulse with a focused expression.
His fingers were long and strong, and they gently rested on Su Jingyao's wrist through the handkerchief.
"Concubine, the prince in your belly is very healthy. You are already eight months pregnant. According to my pulse, the prince should be born in about five weeks."
Su Jingyao smiled sweetly, beautiful and charming.
She gently stroked her belly with her hand, feeling the little life connected to her blood in her belly.
The feeling was wonderful, and her heart was filled with warmth and anticipation.
There is also a maternal glow in her eyes, an indescribable tenderness and kindness.
Li Jing rarely saw Su Jingyao so gentle.
In his impression, she has always been the proud eldest lady, indifferent and aloof, looking down on everything, always strategizing and controlling everything.
When they first met, he was obviously a few years older than her, but he always felt safe with her.
She is extremely intelligent. Whether she is handling her own business or seizing other people's markets, she performs exceptionally well, makes plans and handles things with ease.
At that time, Li Jing regarded her as the goddess who saved him, who was out of his reach. Her wisdom and talent often amazed him.
If such a woman were a man, she would definitely be able to hold a high position and achieve great success.
Su Jingyao enjoyed the process of pregnancy very much, even though she experienced the discomfort of morning sickness, general fatigue, and even leg cramps from time to time at night.
But none of this could conceal the happiness and joy in her heart.
In modern times, she is an orphan who has never felt the love of her parents.
After coming to the ancient times, she felt fifteen years of maternal love, paternal love, and the love of her brother, but none of them was as strong as the feeling this child brought her.
She wanted to pamper the child and give him endless love and care.
Su Jingyao lowered her head and looked at her bulging belly with a happy smile on her face.
Maybe she had been in a daze for too long, and suddenly she felt Li Jing's gaze on her.
Su Jingyao immediately raised her head, and the smile on her face instantly faded, replaced by a hint of indifference.
She leaned back and asked casually, "What's going on with Tang Fengyi's pregnancy?"
Li Jing came back to his senses as if waking up from a dream, with a hint of trance in his eyes.
"Tang Fengyi's pregnancy has been taken care of by Imperial Doctor Hu, but he has only been in charge for a month. Now, every day in the Imperial Hospital, Imperial Doctor Hu appears to be worried, with a frown on his face, as if he has a lot on his mind."
"Oh? Tang Fengyi's pregnancy is not going well?"
Su Jingyao raised her eyebrows slightly, revealing a hint of teasing.
"Yes, the situation of Tang Fengyi's pregnancy is not optimistic. The Queen has ordered Doctor Hu to protect the heir no matter what means. Now some of the methods used by Doctor Hu are extremely harmful to the mother's body."
Li Jing nodded slightly, and then continued: "I guess that the Queen wants Doctor Hu to keep the fetus until the seventh month, and then she can kill the mother and take the child."
Li Jing's voice sounded a little solemn, and his brows furrowed even more tightly. Except for a few people in power in the palace, no one's life is in their own hands.
He had no sympathy for Tang Fengyi. He just felt that fate was a trick on people and life and death were determined by fate.
Su Jingyao lowered her eyelashes and fell into deep thought.
It seems that the Queen really values the Prince's child.
Yes, how could these people in power care about a person of low status like Tang Fengyi?
In their eyes, being able to give birth to an heir to the throne is a woman's greatest blessing.
sad.
"Okay, I understand. You can leave now."
After Li Jing respectfully retreated, Su Jingyao slowly stood up and walked towards the window at a leisurely pace.
She stood quietly by the window, looking intently at the snow falling outside.
The white snowflakes fell from the sky as lightly as feathers, fluttering down like countless lively elves dancing in the air.
The snowflakes are so pure, flawless, and crystal clear that they seem to be able to hide all the sin and darkness in the palace.
They fall silently, bringing a moment of tranquility and beauty to the world.
But Ling Yue, you are blocking my way, and I can only find a way to move you away from my path.
And Tang Fengyi was the weapon being used and sharpened.
If Tang Fengyi knew that only one of her and her child could survive, what would she choose?
"Master, An Liangdi is outside asking to see you."
At this time, Miaoyun came over and reported quietly.
She was just thinking about how to meet this tool person, but she didn't expect that she would come to her door herself.
Was he here to ask her how to regain her favor again?
This An Jinyan is sometimes very smart, and sometimes she is cutely silly.
"Let her in."
Su Jingyao spoke in a faint voice, and then sat back on the couch.
After a while, An Jinyan walked in.
She took off her heavy cloak and said, "I pay my respects to my sister, the concubine." An Jinyan bowed slightly and said respectfully.
