The emperor finally figured it out. Even though Zhen Huan looked like Chun Yuan, she was not the person in his heart. He could be tolerant of Chun Yuan, but now it was Zhen Huan who was by his side.

The Queen Mother heard the answer she wanted, sat for a while, then stood up and left.

The emperor looked at the empress dowager's back and said to Su Peisheng:

"Su Peisheng, go call Master Zhang Tingyu!"

On the other side, Zhen Huan insisted on seeing the emperor despite the dissuasion, but she was so worried that she suddenly fell to the ground after taking a few steps out of the door.

"My lord, my lord, what's wrong with you?"

"Xiao Yunzi, go call Doctor Wen!"

The voices of the servants kept coming and going in her ears. Zhen Huan felt her eyelids were very heavy. She tried hard to stand up and walk to the Yangxin Palace to beg the emperor, but her eyelids became heavier and heavier until she fell into a deep sleep...

After an unknown amount of time, Zhen Huan woke up.

Huanbi saw her open her eyes, wiped away her tears hastily, and said with a difficult smile: "My lady is finally awake, drink the medicine quickly!"

"Huanbi, how is father? Has the emperor pardoned him?"

Huanbi shook her head sadly.

Zhen Huan was a little disappointed and asked again, "How long have I slept? Has the Emperor come to see me?" She thought that if the Emperor knew that she had fainted and came to see her, it would mean that the Emperor still had feelings for her. In this way, she would have a better chance of succeeding when she asked the Emperor for help.

But Huanbi still shook her head.

"My lady, Doctor Wen said that you are pregnant and have been pregnant for almost two months. Please drink this medicine to ensure the safe birth of your baby."

Pregnancy? Zhen Huan was in a very complicated mood at the moment. She didn't know whether she should be happy about the arrival of the child.

She took the medicine bowl and drank it all, wiped the corners of her mouth and asked, "Does the emperor know about this?"

Huanbi replied, "I haven't told His Majesty yet. I think we should wait until the young lady wakes up before making a decision."

Zhen Huan felt somewhat relieved that this girl was becoming more cautious and thorough in her work.

"By the way, father...did the jailer torture him?"

After the young lady fainted yesterday, Huanbi asked someone to pass a message to Prince Guo, asking him to help and make sure that the master suffered less in prison. The prince agreed.

Just received news that the Emperor has not issued a clear decree on how to deal with Lord Zhen. He has bribed the jailer, so the jailer will not make it too difficult for him.

"I asked someone to ask, the master is fine, the people in there won't make it difficult for him, but the prison environment is harsh, and the master has suffered from leg disease in his early years, so we'd better find a way to get him out as soon as possible."

Zhen Huan's eyes were somewhat sad and cold. She stroked her belly and said, "Just now you said I was pregnant. Maybe this child can help me bring my father out."

"My Lord, what you mean is..."

"Go and ask Wen Shichu to tell His Majesty that I am pregnant, but the fetus is unstable and needs to be taken good care of."

After Huanbi settled her down, she left Suiyuxuan.

Outside the palace gate, Mei Jie rushed over with her belly bulging, "Huanbi, how is Huan'er? Doctor Wen told me yesterday not to worry and to take good care of the baby, but I always feel uneasy. I have to come and see if Huan'er is really okay before I can feel relieved."

Huanbi asked Caiyue to take good care of Concubine Hui and left first as she had something to do.

Zhen Huan was lying on the bed worrying about her father when Sister Mei came in quietly.

"Huan'er, are you okay?"

Zhen Huan quickly turned her head and looked towards the door, "Sister, you are so pregnant, why are you in such a hurry to leave?"

Caiyue stood aside and frowned as she replied, "When the noble heard that Lady Wanpin was unwell, she didn't care about anything else and rushed over."

"Sister, you care about me, but you also have to take care of yourself!"

"I heard that Uncle Zhen was arrested by E Min and his men and thrown into prison. I know you must be very worried. I have sent a letter to my father, asking him to contact people he knows in the court to write a letter of advice and ask the emperor to investigate the matter thoroughly."

Ever since her father was suspected by the Emperor, fewer and fewer people have been coming and going from Sui Yuxuan. Everyone is afraid of being associated with them. Only Sister Mei is willing to stand up for her. Zhen Huan is deeply moved.

"Thank you, sister, for your help. However, Uncle Shen has made outstanding military achievements, so there is really no need for him to get involved in this mess. Sister, you should write a letter to stop this matter. I will find a solution myself."

"I know you don't want to implicate me. Don't worry, my father is resourceful and will not easily put himself in danger. Besides, you have lived in the deep palace for a long time. I heard that the emperor has not come to see you in the past few days. How can you think of a solution alone?"

When Zhen Huan heard this, she grabbed Mei Jie's hand and placed it on her belly. Her eyes were very calm, and it was impossible to tell whether she was happy or sad. "I already have a plan."

Mei Zhuang subconsciously lowered her head and stared at Zhen Huan's belly. Suddenly, she covered her mouth with tears in her eyes, "Could it be that you..."

Zhen Huan pursed her lips and nodded to Sister Mei.

Sister Mei narrowed her eyes slightly, nodded and said repeatedly: "This child came at the right time. Now Uncle Zhen can finally be saved!"

The two sisters exchanged a few words, and Lingrong and Huanbi came in one after another.

Lingrong had difficulty walking with her big belly, so she could only move slowly. She came to the bed and sat down slowly, and asked timidly: "Are you feeling better, sister?"

Zhen Huan was moved, and lowered her head, tightly grasping the handkerchief in her hand. "The imperial physician said that I was fine. It was all my fault that you two pregnant women had to travel such a long way to see me."

Huanbi came to the bedside cautiously, lowered her head and replied sullenly: "My lady, when I went to the Yangxin Palace just now, the emperor was accompanying the queen, and Princess Wenyi was also accompanying him."

"Then have you told the emperor about Huan'er's pregnancy?" There was an urgent desire in Mei Zhuang's eyes.

Huanbi's face was gloomy. "I have already said that the emperor and the queen were obviously stunned when they heard the news. I saw it clearly. The emperor was concerned about the young lady and originally planned to come to see her. But as soon as he opened his mouth, the queen said that there were many things that needed the emperor's decision for the Mid-Autumn family banquet. The emperor... the emperor told me to ask Doctor Wen to take good care of her and he would come when he was free."

Zhen Huan was very disappointed, even a little desperate. She knew clearly how much the emperor valued his offspring. The emperor's absence showed that the emperor had believed that her father was plotting treason and did not want to see her, which made him feel pity and joy, thus affecting the emperor's consideration of the Zhen family.

Haha, she originally thought that although the emperor treated her as Chun Yuan's substitute, after spending these years together day and night, he must have some sincerity in his heart. Now it seems that she was overthinking.

She closed her eyes tightly, leaned on the soft pillow and said nothing. The atmosphere in the hall was stagnant.
