In Qingning Palace, Yun Zhining was lying on the bed, feeling dizzy and hot all over, but she was not afraid at all.

Because the whole thing was part of her plan.

she will not die.

Anyone who wants her dead will be disappointed.

She exhaled a breath of hot air, and the corners of her mouth curled up slightly.

Just then, the door of the palace opened. Yun Zhining slowly turned her head to look over, and the next moment, her expression froze.

“Emperor,…”

"Your Majesty, how did you come in?"

She thought about Zhou Baozhu, Xiao Putao, Concubine Lin, and even Concubine Feng, but she had never thought that when she knew she would die, Qi Yejing would ignore his own danger and personally step into Qingning Palace to stay with her.

She was really surprised.

At the same time, a warm feeling surged in my heart.

My mouth feels sweet, as if I had eaten honey.

Qi Yejing walked quickly to the bed, sat down, held her hand, and said with a distressed look on his face.

"You are my wife. How can I bear to abandon you when you are so seriously ill?"

"wife?"

Yun Zhining looked at him blankly, not knowing what he was talking about.

Qi Yejing pinched her face and said with a smile.

"You heard it right. From this moment on, you are the queen of Daye and my, Qi Yejing's legitimate wife. From now on, you can fight alongside me and we will never have to be separated again."

"But, but, I don't have enough family background to be the queen of Daye!"

"Who said you don't have the qualifications? The famous General Qi is about to become your father. You are General Qi's daughter, the younger sister of General Qi, the younger sister of Imperial Noble Consort Xiaomin, the person with the highest rank in the harem, the person who has given birth to the most princes and princesses, the most favored person in the harem, and the person that both queen mothers love the most. If you don't have the qualifications to be the queen of Daye, then who has the qualifications?"

etc,……

There is too much information, please give her some time to process it.

"What do you mean General Qi is going to be my father soon?"

"Does the Emperor intend to have General Qi adopt me as his goddaughter?"

"No, no."

Qi Yejing waved his hand and said with a smile.

"After all, a goddaughter is not a biological daughter, so the status is still a little different."

"Since I am going to do it, I will try my best to do it the best I can."

"I can't count on my biological daughter, but I can still get my stepdaughter."

Stepdaughter?

Could it be that...

Yun Zhining took a deep breath, her heart almost jumping out of her throat.

"General Qi and my mother, ..."

"That's right. General Qi fell in love with your mother at first sight, and fell in love with him again. After spending some time together, your mother also thinks he is a good person, so they have already discussed the wedding date. In a while, your mother will marry General Qi."

"By then, you will legitimately become General Qi's daughter. Who would dare to say that you are not qualified to be the queen of Daye?"

Qi Yejing's words were like a bolt of thunder, instantly striking Yun Zhining to pieces.

She opened her mouth, not knowing what to say.

It took her a long time to recover.

"When did my mother and General Qi meet?"

How come she hadn't heard any news before this?

"Well, ..."

Qi Yejing touched the tip of his nose and said with a guilty conscience.

"Your mother has known General Qi for less than a month."

How many?

"How many did you say?"

"One month!"

"You, ..., I, ..."

If Yun Zhining still can't see the truth of the matter, then she is too stupid.

"Tell me honestly, did you do this?"

Qi Yejing nodded.

Yun Zhining pinched him hard.

Qi Yejing's face was distorted due to the pain.

"You, how could you do such a thing without telling me?"

Qi Yejing said with a look of grievance.

"I have no choice. In order to allow you to take the throne of queen smoothly and not be criticized by the court officials and concubines, I can only do this."

"But don't worry, I just asked General Qi to seduce your mother. What happens next is all their own will."

"Not long after Madam Qi gave birth to Qi Yao, she fell seriously ill and passed away. General Qi has always felt sorry for this matter, so although the time is very short, since he has chosen your mother, he will definitely treat her well."

"If he dares to treat your mother badly, let alone you, I will not let him go first."

"So don't worry about them, just wait and see."

Yun Zhining glared at him and said unhappily.

"Things have already developed to this point, is there any need for me to stop it?"

If they broke up, General Qi would at most have one more romantic affair, but her mother's reputation would be affected. Why would she do such a losing business?

Seeing that she had admitted the matter, Qi Yejing finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Aning, don't blame me. I did this just because I wanted to hold your hand and fight alongside you."

"You almost lost your life to save me. From that moment on, I was determined to be with you. I swear that one day, I will make you stand by my side legitimately and make our little Grape become the eldest princess of Daye, with infinite splendor."

"You only have eyes for little grapes, don't you have other children?"

"Of course, but Grape is our first child, and she's a girl. If she becomes the eldest princess, she will be honorable wherever she goes. She won't have to kowtow to others or look at other people's faces."

"As for the prince, the title and position are all empty. Only strength is king."

"You are a typical example of favoring girls over boys."

"I can't help it. The princes have a bright future and can do so many things in the future, but the princesses can only guard their own little piece of land. They can't serve as officials in the court and can't show their ambitions. Of course, I have to be nicer to the princesses to make up for it."

This is the limitation of this era and also the regret of this era, but she believes that with the efforts of generations, one day, women will be able to go to school, become officials, and shine in all walks of life. They will no longer be trapped in the backyard and deal with the trivial matters of firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea every day.

On the first day of the smallpox outbreak, Yun Zhining was still able to stay awake and would talk to Qi Yejing from time to time to divert her attention.

On the second day of the smallpox attack, her consciousness began to blur and she felt drowsy and had no strength to talk to Qi Yejing.

On the third day of the smallpox outbreak, she fell into a complete coma and her body was covered with blisters. Imperial Physician Chen was summoned to the palace and began to inoculate her with cowpox.

Qi Yejing assisted and took care of Yun Zhining, but he was also worried about her safety.

At this moment, the court officials received the news and knelt outside Qingning Palace to ask Qi Yejing to send Yun Zhining out of the palace.
