After dinner, He Yue took her plate of Eight Treasures Cake and sat on the couch, eating it in small bites.

Ning Rushong was unusually lazy at the moment. He leaned on the pillow, casually flipping through a chess book in his hand, treating it as entertainment in his spare time.

The snow-blue uniform with crane pattern on it made him look a bit scholarly.

Perhaps because he looked too relaxed and at ease, He Yue felt uncomfortable. She casually picked up a piece of cake and handed it to his lips, knowing that he didn't like cakes, "Try it, I like it very much."

Ning Rushong was surprised for a moment, but still lowered his head and ate the cake. The sweetness made him frown.

He Yue was delighted to see his expression. She shrugged and smiled, her hair half tied up in a bun, a few strands falling in front of her shoulders.

She didn't know why, but she was thinking about it. She took another piece of cake from the small table beside her and leaned towards Ning Rusong. "Since Your Majesty likes it, have another piece."

"Okay." Ning Rushong put the chess record aside, held He Yue's right wrist which was holding the pastry with one hand, exerted a little force under his palm, brought her into his arms, and fell on her with a burning gaze.

He lowered his head and took a bite of the Eight Treasures Cake. This time there was no emotion on his gaunt face, but his phoenix eyes were filled with greed and eagerness.

He Yue noticed something, her eyelashes trembled slightly, and there was a hint of panic on her beautiful and elegant face. She raised her hand to push him, but Ning Rushong didn't move at all. He opened his mouth and bit her right index finger, but the force was so light that it couldn't even break the skin, just a slight rubbing.

Huiqing and other palace maids had already retreated when the Queen fell into Ning Rushong's arms. The curtains were lowered, covering everything inside, and people outside could not see anything.

Ning Rusong stood up after letting her mouth go, lifted her face with his hands, pressed down with his hot lips, and kissed her gently, as if he was treating the person in his arms as fragile glass...

Unable to hold back the tears, He Yue sat on Ning Rushong's lap, frowning, wiping the wet marks at the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, her eyelashes were wet and turned into small clumps.

"I haven't been feeling well these days, so please don't come here again." He Yue lowered her eyelashes and spoke in a low voice.

Ning Rusong put his arm around her waist and said in a gentle voice, "Your medical records don't mention that you're menstruating."

He Yue choked up, "Why are you still the same as you were in the East Palace?"

Back then in the Eastern Palace Biyuan, He Yue refused to have sex with Ning Rushong with this reason, and was exposed just like this time.

But the difference is that when she was in the Eastern Palace, He Yue was really afraid of him, but now she is not so afraid of him, but she doesn't like him at all either.

A person like Ning Rushong, a man of great stature and dignity, is suitable to be respected and feared from afar.

If you are a true lover, who can bear it?

His willful and ruthless nature destined him to be the plundering and controlling party in this relationship, sucking the marrow out of the bones, burning the sea of ​​fire, and refusing to give in even a step!

But He Yue has been a loved character for a long time, how could she give such a horrifying and terrifying love!

Love, it sounds like a gift from heaven, but it can also be so strong and paranoid that it can be suffocating.

"My period hasn't come, but my body is not feeling well, so you are not allowed to do anything stupid!" He Yue left his arms.

Ning Rushong knew that He Yue was angry because of what happened in the past.

"He Yue, what can we do? Ning Rushong's methods two years ago were so cruel that he didn't leave any leeway for me now." Ning Rushong looked distant.

He Yue had already lifted the curtain hanging in front of the warm room door and left, and it was not known whether she heard it or not.

"Go to the main hall."

Hui Qing, who was guarding the door, hurried forward to support He Yue, "Yes, Madam."

In the bedroom of the main hall, He Yue sat on a stool, her brows filled with fear and a wave of dizziness came over her.

She said in a low voice, "Menstruation, Huiqing, my period is already five days late!"

She clutched Hui Qing's sleeve tightly, and said helplessly, "My pulse is only once every three days, so I should not be pregnant."

"Don't worry, Your Majesty. Let me take your pulse again." Hui Qing suppressed her shock and tried to comfort He Yue.

"Your Highness..." But the more she spoke, the paler Hui Qing's face became. "It's been less than a month, and the pulse is very weak. It's normal that the imperial physician neglected to diagnose it."

He Yue seemed to be nailed to the spot. She felt dizzy all of a sudden and her tense nerves were about to collapse!

Her body gradually softened, and she leaned against Huiqing's arms, lost in thought, "I can't hide it, I can't hide it!"

There was no possibility of hiding anything, and He Yue and Hui Qing both understood this.

After the fake death drug incident, all the medicinal materials in the Imperial Hospital now have to be recorded, and He Yue doesn't have any chance to operate at all.

"Huiqing, what should I do?" He Yue curled up her body and tried to escape, her voice unclear.

Except for Huiqing and Xiaobi, all the palace servants around He Yue are Ning Rusong's people. But although Xiaobi is loyal, she is naive and impulsive, and she only has Huiqing to rely on.

"My queen, we can't hide it." Hui Qing sighed. The net was so tight that it was impossible to move forward.

…………

This year's winter came very early, with the first snow falling heavily, the blue bricks covered with silver frost, and the red walls turned white.

Gazing from a high vantage point, the imperial palace is vast and magnificent, while the palace servants walking on the palace roads appear extremely small.

Imperial Physician Lou bowed and greeted through the pearl curtain, "Your humble servant pays respect to Her Majesty the Queen. May Your Majesty live a thousand years!"

This was a routine pulse check. Hui Qing opened the beaded curtain and said, "Doctor Lou, please."

The Empress was dressed simply, in a palace skirt with white magnolia flowers and a bun on her head, but she still had an ethereal appearance, making others feel ashamed of themselves.

Doctor Lou knelt on the ground and took the Queen's pulse carefully. He raised his eyebrows in surprise. The Queen was actually almost a month pregnant!

He was interrupted before he could even utter his congratulations.

"My period came yesterday. Has the doctor diagnosed it?" The Queen's voice was filled with pleading.

Doctor Lou broke out in a cold sweat and lowered his head even more, "Your Majesty... this..."

Today, there was no one serving the Queen except Huiqing, a senior palace maid. Huiqing walked towards Doctor Lou, squatted down and stuffed a jade ring into his hand. The jade ring was of excellent quality and worth at least a thousand gold coins!

Hui Qing whispered in Doctor Lou's ear, "Doctor, please be flexible this time. After all, the pregnancy is still young. The next diagnosis will be the same. Your Majesty just wants to give His Majesty a surprise."

Doctor Lou wiped his sweat. What surprise?! I'm afraid it will only be a shock!

He was the imperial physician who accompanied His Majesty to the Duan family to bring back the Empress. The imperial physician from the Secret Building also knew something about this. He did not believe what Hui Qing said at this moment.

Doctor Lou did not dare to look up to see the Queen. He carefully placed the jade ring aside, then folded his hands on the ground and bowed deeply!

"I hope Your Majesty will have some mercy on me! Recently my wife gave me a daughter, whom I love very much. I only hope that I can see my daughter marry a good man and enjoy a happy life!"

He kowtowed fiercely and said, "I'm sorry, I dare not accept this jade ring. Your Majesty, please take it back!"
