"I heard that my sister was turned away by the emperor, so I came to see her. I wonder if she is okay?" There was a lot of sarcasm in her words. Concubine Yang just glanced at Concubine Rou indifferently, then lowered her head and took a fruit.

"Sister, you're so free today that you even have time to come here and laugh at your younger sister's joke. But I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint you."

Concubine Yang answered confidently, "The Emperor loves me. He knows I'm kindhearted and can't bear to see anyone get hurt. He's also afraid that this little thing will be used as a fuss, so he specifically asked me to wait outside."

Concubine Rou's eyes fell on Lady Yang. Her shoes were spotless, and it seemed that she had changed them here.

She sneered in her heart. This Concubine Yang was really stubborn. Even at this point, she still insisted that the emperor liked her.

However, she came this time to see the little palace maid who was carried back to the imperial study by the emperor himself. It seems that there will be another sister in the palace.

She originally wanted to go in, but now seeing that Lady Yang was also here, she stopped where she was and decided not to go in now.

Although Concubine Rou is proud, she has been brought up by her family since she was a child, so she can see the situation clearly. She understands that the emperor does not want to see anyone now.

Only a fool like Concubine Yang, who is spoiled because of her favor, would wait here all the time, which would only make the emperor more annoyed.

"Then my sister, please continue to enjoy the rain here. It's quite cold. I am not as strong and healthy as you, who are favored by the emperor. I will return to the palace first."

After saying that, Concubine Rou left with a group of people.

-

After Concubine Rou left, Yang Meiren's personal maid came forward. She first covered Yang Meiren with a cloak, and then asked carefully.

"Beauty, shall we wait?"

"Wait!"

Concubine Yang did not hesitate. She turned her gaze back to the imperial study, her lips tightly pursed. She wanted to see what was wrong with that little bitch.

The imperial physician arrived soon.

The white-bearded old man first saw Concubine Yang at the door. He immediately knelt down to pay his respects to Concubine Yang. After Concubine Yang nodded, he hurried to the imperial study.

……

After paying his respects to the emperor, the imperial physician immediately followed his instructions and examined the woman on the bed.

But as soon as he touched the pulse of the little palace maid, she withdrew her hand as if frightened, and the red thread for taking the pulse was torn off.

"what happened?"

There was obvious displeasure in the emperor's words. He frowned and stared at the figure on the couch.

The imperial physician knelt down, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and replied tremblingly, "Your Majesty, the person on the bed moved his wrist, causing the red thread to break."

Su Mei did it on purpose.

She didn't want people to know that she was pregnant too early, so she deliberately broke the red thread.

The emperor listened and continued to tie the red rope for her, then ordered the doctor, "Go on."

Then, as expected, the red rope broke again.

The emperor had no choice but to say to the imperial physician, "Forget it. She must have been kneeling in the rain for too long and caught a cold. Just prescribe some tonic medicine for her."

Ok?

Take medicine?

Tonic!

The little fox knew that any medicine would have an impact on the baby in her belly, so she slowly opened her eyes which had been closed, and reached out to pull the emperor who was sitting beside her.

"Thank you for your consideration, Your Majesty. I feel fine now, so there's no need to bother the imperial physician."

As she spoke, her stomach growled in agreement.

Now the emperor understood that she was hungry, so he immediately ordered Lai Fu to ask the imperial kitchen to prepare some food.

"What would you like to eat?" the emperor asked her.

Su Mei blurted out without hesitation, "Chicken soup..."

After she finished speaking, she felt a little regretful. It was really spicy. Her true nature was exposed.

However, the emperor didn't think there was anything wrong. Instead, he felt that the little girl had been acting reserved before, and just now seemed to have released her true nature.

Soon, the fragrant chicken soup was served. Su Mei swallowed her saliva. A fox really couldn't resist the temptation of Giggling.

"Eat..."

The emperor served her a bowl of chicken soup and looked at her with gentle eyes.

at the same time.

The heavy rain stopped, the sky cleared up, and a rainbow emerged from behind the clouds.

Concubine Yang watched the imperial physician come out of the imperial study, and then watched the delicious food being delivered one after another from the imperial kitchen. Out of curiosity, she stopped a young eunuch who had just returned from sending the imperial physician back.

"How's that little... maid?"

"Your Majesty, I don't know." The young eunuch answered honestly.

The situation inside was probably only known by Eunuch Lai Fu, but given his identity, how could he dare to ask Eunuch Lai Fu.

Concubine Yang felt a lump in her throat, but she forced herself to swallow it. She stood up and said, "Now that she's fine, I'm relieved. Go tell the emperor. I'll be leaving now."

"Yes, empress..."

The young eunuch answered in a low voice. He looked at Concubine Yang's gradually receding figure and tried hard to suppress the urge to laugh.

It was the first time he saw Concubine Yang return in defeat. The young eunuch looked up at the clear sky and felt that the weather was about to change.

……

After Su Mei finished eating, she felt warm in her stomach.

The little cub seemed happy too. He didn't make any noise in her belly and stayed quietly in her belly.

Seeing that she had finished eating, the emperor breathed a sigh of relief and handed her a handkerchief.

"Are you feeling well?"

"Ah."

She nodded, but her eyes were a little evasive, as she thought of the jade pendant.

Sure enough, the emperor then asked her, "Is the jade pendant you are talking about the one I gave you?"

He remembered what the little girl had just said in the rain. The situation today was urgent. Fortunately, the little girl was smart and sent someone to look for him.

What is coming will come...

Su Mei nodded and said honestly, "I don't know the meaning of the jade pendant, so... so..."

She clutched a corner of the quilt tightly, lowered her head, and whispered, "I gave the jade pendant to Qiangwei. After Qiangwei went to deliver a book to Lady Yang, she was seen by Lady Yang."

She explained the whole story in a very low voice, and then quietly observed the emperor's expression.

Qi Sihan's originally calm expression gradually darkened as she narrated, his face tightening.

She actually gave away that jade pendant so easily.

Could it be that his affection was not worth cherishing in her eyes?

still is……

Qi Sihan's heart sank suddenly, and he thought of a worse guess, maybe she didn't like him at all.

Before she knew his identity, she was still a woman with her own emotions, and she would speak frankly about her concerns.

But ever since she knew his identity, she has been very cautious and has been making herself nervous all the time.

"You've been frightened by the rain today. Rest well first. I have things to attend to, so I'll be leaving first."

Qi Sihan didn't even look at her again. He just said this bluntly and turned away.
