Rebirth and Marriage: I am the Mistress of the Palace

"Qingxi, can you please stop being so heartless?"

Huo Yunzhou had a painful look on his face: "You know clearly that I only treat Rouxin as my sister. You are the only one in my heart. If you didn't have you in my heart, I would have agreed to the divorce a long time ago. Why would I beg you so humbly?"

"You have me in your heart, but it's not just me, there are others too."

"No one else! Qingxi, you and Rouxin are different. I have absolutely no feelings for Rouxin! If I had such feelings for her, wouldn't I have been with her a long time ago? How could I possibly marry you?"

Xiao Qingxi couldn't answer this question. She also felt that there should be no romantic relationship between Huo Yunzhou and Lin Rouxin, but she just couldn't accept that he wanted to take her as a concubine.

She looked at Huo Yunzhou with red eyes. He was now taller and more upright than before. He had transformed from a boy into a real man. The life and death experience on the battlefield had sharpened his edge and made him full of manliness.

But he was still a little humble in front of her, just like before. No matter whose fault it was, he would always admit his mistake first and then patiently coax her.

No matter how arrogant and domineering she was, he tolerated her; no matter how willful and naughty she was, he would just smile gently; no matter how bad she got into trouble, he never blamed her, but quietly cleaned up the mess for her.

He was so good to her that she fell hopelessly in love with this warrior and was even willing to give up the comfort and wealth in the capital and follow him to the northwest to suffer.

She had been unable to conceive for two years. She had consulted many doctors in the northwest and had taken all kinds of bitter medicines, all because she loved Huo Yunzhou and wanted to give him a child.

But Huo Yunzhou said that the child was not as important as her, and he would not allow her to take those medicines anymore. He said that even if there was no child, he would still love her forever, and he felt bad for her taking so many medicines.

But what would happen if there was someone named Lin Rouxin between her and him?

Now he not only felt sorry for her, but also began to feel sorry for Lin Rouxin. In fact, he felt sorry for Lin Rouxin more than she did.

Because Lin Rouxin's parents had both passed away and she was left alone and helpless, while she had both parents and an older brother.

The more Xiao Qingxi thought about it, the more painful her heart felt. She even felt dizzy and her whole body began to shake.

Huo Yunzhou hurriedly supported her: "Qingxi, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling uncomfortable?"

Xiao Qingxi pulled her hand out of his: "Get lost, I don't need your care!"

"Qingxi, you look very bad, stop messing around with me, I'll carry you to lie down for a while!"

"Do not touch me!"

Xiao Qingxi shouted and tried to push Huo Yunzhou away, but her hands had no strength at all.

The next moment, her eyes went dark and she fell limply to the ground.

Huo Yunzhou hugged her tightly and said, "Qingxi! Call the imperial physician, quickly!"

As he spoke, he put Xiao Qingxi on the couch.

Just as Xiao Qingyuan was about to ask someone to call the imperial physician, Shen Wantang stepped forward, lifted up Xiao Qingxi's sleeve, and began to take her pulse.

Huo Yunzhou was surprised: "The Crown Prince's Consort can also take pulses?"

"She will."

Xiao Qingyuan answered for her: "She... is quite amazing."

"No, I'm still worried. Qingyuan, you should call the imperial physician. Qingxi has never had this happen before. She has always been very healthy!"

Xiao Qingyuan glanced at Shen Wantang, and finally asked Mo Ji to call the imperial physician.

Shen Wantang didn't want to pay attention to them. She checked Xiao Qingxi's pulse for a while and then frowned slightly.

Nanny Kang was so anxious that beads of sweat appeared on her forehead: "Princess, how is the princess? Is there anything serious wrong with her body?"

Shen Wantang said: "Don't worry, the princess is fine, but..."

Huo Yunzhou asked anxiously: "But what?"

Xiao Qingyuan was also anxious: "Shen Wantang, come on, why are you still keeping us in suspense at this time?"

Shen Wantang looked at the two of them: "Prince and Master Huo, please go out first. I want to talk to Madam Kang alone."

Xiao Qingyuan was a little annoyed: "What happened? Why did you tell Aunt Kang and not me? I am Qingxi's biological brother!"

Huo Yunzhou also said: "Princess, I am Qingxi's husband. No matter what happens to her body, I should be the first to know. Just tell me directly!"

Shen Wantang was not afraid of them: "That may not be the case. I will only tell the princess about her situation. Whether you two have the right to know is up to the princess to decide."

"Someone, please ask the prince and Mr. Huo to leave!"

At her command, the maids and servants immediately drove the two of them out.

After a while, only Shen Wantang, Xiao Qingxi and Nanny Kang were left in the room.

Seeing her so serious, Aunt Kang's expression became solemn: "Now there is no one else, can the Crown Prince's Consort tell us? What happened to the Princess?"

"The princess is pregnant."

"what?!"

"It's been three months. You are the princess's personal nanny. She hasn't had her period for three months. Didn't you notice?"

Nanny Kang was so shocked by the news that she couldn't recover from the shock. She didn't even know for a moment whether it was a good thing or a bad thing.

After a long while, she digested the news and whispered, "Since arriving in the northwest, the princess has been suffering from acclimatization problems. Her menstruation has been irregular, and it is common for her to miss two or three months. So when she didn't have her period this time, I let my guard down."

"Then didn't you ask a doctor to see the princess?"

"We have invited doctors from all over the northwest, and tried all kinds of folk remedies, but none of them worked. Instead, the princess's periods became more irregular, and her pain during periods became worse. Later, the princess refused to see a doctor again. She herself said that she would see an imperial physician after returning to the capital."

In fact, the main purpose is to treat infertility, not irregular menstruation, but irregular menstruation can cause infertility, so they are treated together.

But Nanny Kang was unwilling to tell others about the princess's most painful feelings, even if that person was her sister-in-law.

She finally understood why Shen Wantang wanted to drive Xiao Qingyuan and Huo Yunzhou out first, because the princess should be informed of this matter first. It was up to her to decide whether to keep the child or not, and whether to tell Huo Yunzhou or not. This was the best thing to do.

Shen Wantang's thorough consideration for Xiao Qingxi made Nanny Kang look at her with a higher regard once again.

Just a small thing is enough to show Shen Wantang's character.

Nanny Kang lowered her head to look at Xiao Qingxi, only to find that she had woken up without her knowing when, and her eyes were full of shock.

Shen Wantang also saw that she had woken up. She said bluntly, "The princess is already three months pregnant. It must be because the princess has had a good physical condition since she was young. The fetus is very stable. You fainted just now because of anger. It has nothing to do with the child."

Xiao Qingxi was a little dazed. She couldn't believe it and didn't even bother to scold Shen Wantang. She asked repeatedly: "Really? Are you sure? Are you not lying to me? Will you really watch this?"
