After becoming a princess, she fell in love with the emperor of the enemy country

Xuan Yelan felt extremely wronged and looked at Qi Wuyou pitifully, "I didn't."

Seeing him like this, Qi Wuyou was unsure and could only look back at Qi Zi, "Ah, you were quite polite to him just now." Qi Zi said this reluctantly, but it was the fact.

Qi Wuyou's face suddenly became awkward. She actually misunderstood. "I'm sorry. I just woke up and my mind is still confused."

Xuan Yelan shook his head generously to indicate that it was okay.

After dinner, Ye Jiu carried Qi Zi on his back for more than an hour and returned to the princess's mansion.

Rong'er just came out, and before she could say anything, Qi Zi asked, "Just tell me what's the matter."

Rong Er nodded, "There's a letter from the palace saying that the Imperial Concubine is ill, and the Imperial Concubine has sent you and the Prince Consort to take care of her."

Qi Zi frowned and looked at Ye Jiu with a strange expression. In the past, when his mother was sick, she would be summoned herself, so why did she call him this time?

Ye Jiu didn't care and just went.

On the way, Qi Zi seemed to remember something and asked in a low voice, "What is the effect of the medicine you gave me that day?"

Ye Jiu raised his eyebrows and replied mysteriously, "I made a homemade aphrodisiac called Hongsha."

Qi Zi: (⊙_☉)

Qi Zi came to her senses and fiercely pinched Ye Jiu's neck, "You are so brave, you actually dared to give me aphrodisiac."

"Let go, let go quickly," Are you really pinching me, do you want to murder your husband?

"What about the medicine? Water can't wash it away, but it needs to be inhaled to be effective. Where did you put the medicine?"

Qi Zi felt hopeless after hearing this, "My mother's favorite flower is the peony. She likes to smell its scent after watering it."

Ye Jiu nodded, which meant that he was very likely to be caught.

Then Ye Jiu touched his sleeve and found a small bottle.

A light bulb suddenly flashed on his head: whose child Qi Yin was, Yin Hao might not know, but Concubine Yin definitely knew. He had no chance to get in touch with Concubine Yin before, but now, it was like handing her a pillow when he was sleepy.

When Qi Zi heard that Ye Jiu didn't move, she turned her head to look at him, just in time to see that the corners of his mouth were raised and had not yet been pressed down.

Qi Zi knew what evil plan he was up to at first glance, and grabbed his collar, "Are you planning to attack my mother in the palace?"

Ye Jiu didn't say anything and agreed.

Qi Zi was furious. "That's the Imperial Palace. Mother's people are everywhere. If you take action and get discovered, we won't be able to escape unscathed."

Ye Jiu stretched out his long arms, embraced Qi Zi in his arms, and said softly, "Don't worry, I have never failed in all these years except you."

Qi Zi was slightly disturbed after hearing this, but she also knew that now was not the time to be affectionate.

Looking at Ye Jiu's determined eyes, Qi Zi swallowed the words of dissuasion. At worst, she could die with him, and the two of them would not be alone on the road to the underworld.

As the two of them approached the gate of Baohua Palace, they saw the nanny beside Concubine Yin standing and wandering at the door, as if she had been waiting for a long time.

Seeing the two of them coming, Nanny Lan hurried over and said anxiously, "Princess, Prince Consort, you are finally here. The Queen has been waiting for a long time."

The two looked at each other and knew something was fishy.

Qi Zi looked anxious and asked hurriedly, "Mammy, what is wrong with mother? Have the fourth and tenth brothers come?"

After hearing this, Nanny Lan's expression froze, and she said dryly, "The queen's illness is not serious, it's not a serious illness, so I didn't call the two princes."

Sure enough, there was a problem. If it wasn't a serious illness, why was he so anxious to see them? And this time he called Ye Jiu so abruptly.

Qi Zi had always known that her mother looked down upon Ye Jiu as her husband, and was angry that her mother had taken the initiative and married someone else, so her mother had never met Ye Jiu.

Qi Zi looked at Ye Jiu and suddenly remembered that Ye Jiu was a doctor!

Judging from Ye Jiu's expression, he had obviously thought of this as well.

The two looked at each other, and Qi Zi hurriedly said to Nanny Lan, "In that case, Nanny, please take us in quickly."

Nanny Lan responded and led the way, with Qi Zi and Ye Jiu following behind.

Qi Zi felt something was wrong as soon as she entered Baohua Palace. There were very few servants in the courtyard today, and the windows of the main hall were tightly closed. Her mother used to like to open them for ventilation at this time of the year, but now they were all closed.

Walking into the main hall, there was only one palace maid serving in the room, who was Aunt Qing who came with my mother as a dowry.

Through the layers of bed curtains, I could vaguely see a figure lying on the bed.

Qi Zi and Ye Jiu bowed, "Greetings, mother."

A tired voice came from behind the bed curtains, "Get up."

Concubine Yin sat up and looked at Ye Jiu carefully through the bed curtain, "Are you Zi'er's husband?"

Ye Jiu knelt down hurriedly, bowed in a panic, and said, "Yes."

Concubine Yin made a "tsk" sound, and was obviously dissatisfied with Ye Jiu, who was petty and unsophisticated and had never seen the world.

But she didn't say anything to belittle Ye Jiu, she just said, "I heard that you know medical skills?"

Ye Jiu was still timid, "I know a thing or two."

"Come here and let me see. I have been feeling unwell these days, and the imperial doctors can't see anything wrong with me." After saying that, Concubine Yin rubbed her swollen and aching head.

Qi Zi suddenly felt something was wrong and said quickly, "Mother, since the imperial physician couldn't see anything, it's even more impossible for him to see anything. He is just a half-baked doctor."

Concubine Yin refused to listen and started to curse, "Shut up, you unfilial daughter. I told him to watch, so he watched. How dare you disobey your mother?"

Seeing this, Ye Jiu hurriedly said, "Let me show you, mother, please don't be angry."

Concubine Yin nodded with satisfaction and stretched out her jade wrist from behind the bed curtain.

Ye Jiu stepped forward to take Qi Zi's pulse. Qi Zi wanted to stop him, but when she saw Ye Jiu's eyes, she forced herself not to move.

Ye Jiu felt the pulse, and his expression did not change at all. After a moment, he stepped back and said, "According to the pulse, mother is just lacking in energy and blood."

“Just that?” Concubine Yin seemed unconvinced.

Ye Jiu nodded and said respectfully, "That's right. I'll prescribe a prescription to replenish your blood and qi. You'll be cured in two days."

This time, Concubine Yin nodded. After Ye Jiu finished writing the prescription, he gave it to Nanny Lan and went back with Qi Zi.

The two of them were silent all the way until they returned to the princess's residence. Qi Zi pulled Ye Jiu into the study and asked what illness Concubine Yin had.

Ye Jiu sneered, "She is not sick, she is obviously pregnant."

Pregnant? Qi Zi was stunned after hearing this. It was impossible for the imperial physician to fail to see that her mother was pregnant, so her mother did not even seek out an imperial physician.

Letting Ye Jiu treat her proves that her mother wants to hide the existence of this child.

In the palace, the queen worshipped Buddha all day long and ignored worldly affairs. The queen was in name only, and my mother was the noble concubine, in charge of the six palaces.

No one in the palace dared to harm my mother's child. Even if my mother was so arrogant and put the child in public, no one dared to harm her.

Unless this child is not the father's.

But it has only been a short time since she put down the red veil. Even if she is pregnant, it is impossible to find out now.

The only possibility is that my mother had been having an affair with someone else without telling my father.
