Although the harem has calmed down quite a bit, my stomach has become more and more unstable, and my lower body often has redness, which makes me terrified every day.

I used to be able to go out and walk around from time to time, but now I dare not go out anymore, for fear of slipping my tire if I am not careful.

Looking at me in the mirror, Dieyi said worriedly, "Your Majesty, why don't you call the imperial physician to take a look, I think you look particularly bad today."

I smiled wryly, "The imperial doctor comes almost every day, isn't it still the same?"

"There is no imperial doctor who has delivered a man in the imperial hospital. Maybe he is inexperienced and unable to prescribe the right medicine. I heard that there is a new imperial physician Mu, who is a direct disciple of the medical fairy Bai Weng. Maybe he can prescribe a good medicine for you." Die Yi suggested eagerly.

"Prince Mu?" My heart skipped a beat and I couldn't help asking, "What's the name of Madam Mu?"

"It seems to be Mu Bin. I heard that he has excellent medical skills, and many empresses in the palace seek him for treatment."

"Mu Bin..." I muttered, but I didn't expect it was really Brother Mu.

A few years away, how are you?

Brother Mu has entered the palace...does he know that I am also in the palace?

The separation that day is vivid in my mind, and I don't know how to face him.

But the old man is within easy reach, and there is still a little more joy in my heart.

Brother Mu's family is poor, and he met me in Piaomiaoxuan by chance, and later became an apprentice in a medical center in Jinling, but he has always taken good care of me.

I regard him as my elder brother, and he treats me much better than my elder brother and second elder brother, so he sometimes gives me some relief, but Brother Mu never accepts my relief, instead he takes care of me more.

I always thought that he and I would be as dear as brothers, but I didn't want him to have more than just brotherly feelings for me.

At that time Li Xuruo got married, I felt depressed, and I met him showing his affection to me again, so I said cruel words and left him in anger.

Unexpectedly, he actually found the Immortal Doctor and became his disciple.

But even so, I can't go any further with him in this life. I only hope that he has a good home, and that there is someone who truly loves him, and I will feel at ease.

"...Does Your Majesty want to call him?" Dieyi asked in my ear.

Only then did I come to my senses, "Alright, the current situation is special, and it can't be delayed."

I have a kind of ominous prophecy, as Bai Weng said, I am afraid that this pregnancy will not be saved.

I can trust Brother Mu's medical skills, maybe he can help me save this pregnancy.

As I got up and walked out, I felt unsteady and almost slipped, so I quickly grabbed the door frame beside me.But because of the sudden exertion, there was a dull pain in the lower body.

I panicked, and when I stretched out my hand to touch it, it was already covered in blood.

"No, I'm afraid it's going to slip."

I hurriedly sent for the imperial physician, and lay down on the bed with Dieyi's support.

The dull pain became more and more intense, accompanied by intermittent stabbing pains. My forehead was covered with sweat, but my heart was cold.

I'm afraid I won't be able to make it through today.

Before the imperial doctor came, I had already fainted from the pain.

In the haze, it seemed that there were many people coming and going in and out of the room, and the body gradually recovered from the cold.

Still concerned about my heart, I suddenly opened my eyes.

"Xi'er, are you awake?" Li Zhenrui was sitting beside my bed with concern in his eyes.

"Your Majesty, is your child okay?" I grabbed his hand, eagerly seeking an answer.

Li Zhenrui held my hand and said softly, "Xi'er, don't be sad, although the child is gone, you still have me..."

What does this mean? My heart suddenly shrank, and I couldn't believe what he said.

Did I still not keep the child I tried so hard to keep?

Tears still flowed down, "It's my fault, I'm sorry, Your Majesty, I didn't keep our baby."

Li Zhenrui held me tightly in his arms and comforted me, "How can I blame you, you have tried your best."

"But I still feel that I'm so useless." A strong sense of frustration hit me, and I burst into tears.

The baby was in my womb for five months, but it took only a moment to lose him.

Although I have been prepared for a long time, but touching my empty stomach, my heart is empty after all.

Although the tire slipped this time suddenly, it was not artificial.

I pay attention to every detail and never let anyone take advantage of it.However, even though I was careful all the time, I still couldn't keep the child...

I am disappointed in myself.

Due to tire slipping, my body is also quite weak. Li Zhenrui sent several imperial physicians to treat me, but it didn't improve much.Afterwards, Mu Bin was sent to treat me several times before I got some effect.

"Heart disease requires heart medicine." Mu Bin summed up a wise saying.

"Brother Mu, how have you been these years?" I asked him this question many times, but he always said "yes" with a smile.

I really regard Mu Bin as an older brother, only in him can I truly feel the brotherhood.

It is precisely because of this rare brotherhood that I don't want him to face any ups and downs in this palace.

But his will is firm and will not be changed by my thoughts.

After several in-depth conversations with him in private, I decided to find another imperial doctor to heal me. On the surface, I still get along with him like strangers, only in private.

There are many people in the palace, especially when my foundation is still unstable and friends and enemies are inseparable. The less people know about my relationship with Mu Bin, the better. In this way, Mu Bin can also become my eyes and ears and help me consolidate my position .

Under Mu Bin's conditioning, my body gradually improved.

But the child's departure made me lose a lot of weight, and I was depressed for several months, so I naturally didn't want to go to bed.

This made Li Zhenrui very dissatisfied, so he doted on Shangguan Wenya even more, and specially allowed him to enter and leave the Ganlu Palace freely.

I naturally know that falling out of favor is inevitable if this continues.

It's just that I don't understand why Li Zhenrui and I's child is gone, and I'm the only one immersed in grief?How could Li Zhenrui see it so normally?Is he already used to life and death as an emperor, let alone an unformed fetus?

I am puzzled, confused, and sad, but I have to accept the current situation.

It's a long night in the palace, you still have to cherish the people in front of you.

The baby is gone, and there will be more in the future.

But if Li Zhenrui doesn't see me anymore, then I will have nothing.

Now in this palace, Shangguan Wenya is the one who has been summoned the most.Followed by a group of concubines.As for the other male concubines, except for Fang Shengze, Wang Qianliang and others who were occasionally summoned, Cui Minglang seemed to have never been summoned.

This is also what surprised me.In terms of appearance, apart from Shangguan's gentleness, Cui Minglang is second to none, but Li Zhenrui respected him but did not love him, so he only ordered Cui Minglang to assist the West Palace, which meant that he could manage the harem.

In fact, these things don't hinder me too much, Cui Minglang and I have a good relationship, and I'm happy to see him gain power.

What I'm only worried about is Shangguan Wenya, that beautiful man who looks flawless.

With him, Li Zhenrui still has a bit of my status in his eyes.

At this time, I can't help but think, how long will it be good for Israel to serve people?

But in the eyes of others, why am I not Israel's servant?

Instead, he became more and more confused, whether Li Zhenrui likes my skin or... just me?

into the night—

"Your Majesty, Lord Yagui is serving the bed again tonight." Die Yi glanced dissatisfiedly at the Fengluan Chun'en car driving towards the Palace of Longevity, and said in puzzlement, "Why doesn't Your Majesty want to serve the bed? It's so terrible." Alright, let Mr. Yagui enjoy the emperor's grace alone."

I looked at myself in the mirror and just smiled.

In addition to the sadness in my heart, I don't want to go to bed. Another reason is that I don't want Li Zhenrui to see my figure that is far from the past.

Compared with Shangguan Wenya, her waist was no longer slender.

And Li Zhenrui seems to like my figure the most, maybe that bloated figure some time ago will make him bored?

I can only laugh that one day I will care so much about my appearance. Whenever I think of Shangguan Wenya, I can't help but compare with him. I guess Li Zhenrui will often compare me with him when he sees him, right?

It's just that he and I are different after all, no matter how similar the facial features and charm are, the difference is the difference.

He is not me, and I am not him.

I walked a few steps slowly, looking at myself in the mirror whose complexion had returned to the past, and said to myself, "What should I wear today?"

Dieyi poked her head out and asked, "Your Majesty is going out?"

"Yes!" I replied.

She looked overjoyed, and then said with some doubts, "It's getting late now, I'm afraid we won't be able to see any good scenery."

I waved my hand, "I don't want to see the scenery, I just want to go to Huaqing Pool to take a bath and rest."

Dieyi showed a surprised expression, "Your Majesty, only concubines who are going to bed can take a bath in Huaqing Pool. I'm afraid we won't be able to get in."

"The rules are only for the people below. I am the concubine with the highest ranking in the harem. It is not difficult to take a bath. Don't worry." I comforted her.

I used to go to Huaqing Palace often and never cared about the time of day, so today I don't take this routine seriously.

Dieyi began to prepare a change of robes for me, but in the end I only brought a piece of pajamas.

As soon as he reached the gate of the temple, he was stopped by the guards guarding the gate.

"See Your Majesty, do you dare to ask Your Majesty if you want to enter this Huaqing Palace?" The guard at the door saluted me, somewhat embarrassed, "Please forgive me, Your Majesty, only Yagui Jun can enter the palace today, Your Majesty otherwise Come back tomorrow?"

I glanced at him, "I have decided to come today, if you are afraid of embarrassment, you can report to the emperor."

The two looked at each other in blank dismay, and had to let me in after repeated attempts to stop me to no avail.

I guessed that Shangguan Wenya had finished her bath, so she should not bump into him.

But when he walked to the Huaqing Pool in the main hall, he saw a body moving in the steaming heat, and then got up and put on in a hurry.

I quickly turned around, a little embarrassed, "Sorry for the trouble."

He also bowed to me and I quickly waved my hands, "There is no need to be formal here, be careful of the cold."

He nodded gratefully, quickened his movements, and explained in his mouth, "The water in the pool is so warm that I overslept. Fortunately, I met your majesty."

"Where, I was abrupt." I smiled.

He was well dressed, wearing a pale silver pajamas, outlining a graceful figure.

I agreed with him slightly and watched him leave.

The light silver pajamas were thin and transparent, and the wide sleeves were gently lifted by the walking wind, as if seeing a little red between the arms.

I rubbed my eyes and lamented that the water vapor was so thick that it made me hallucinate.

Shougong sand?How can it be……

After confirming that he had left, I finally took off my clothes and went into the water with confidence.

The water temperature is so comfortable, no wonder Shangguan Wenya fell asleep unknowingly.

I also felt drowsy and just wanted to fall asleep.

"Your Majesty, I will make some incense for you to soothe your nerves." Die Yi asked from the side.

"Okay." I lazily replied.

It has a fresh and somewhat sweet fragrance. I guess Dieyi is ordering jasmine fragrance.

The petals in the pool were floating, and the dense water vapor was entwined. I relaxed my body, rested my head on the stone steps behind me, closed my eyes and fell asleep.

"Dieyi, help me squeeze my shoulders." I called out.

A pair of hands pressed my shoulders lightly and sometimes heavily, but it was different from Dieyi's usual pressing.

I opened my eyes and turned around, slightly surprised, "Your Majesty, why are you here?"

Li Zhenrui knelt on the ground on one knee, withdrew his hands, only looked at me and said, "Didn't you ask me to come here?"

I raised my eyebrows slightly, "Is there? I don't remember."

Li Zhenrui was not annoyed, he just looked at me and said with a smile, "The little goblin who has lost his soul, didn't he come here on purpose, isn't he waiting for me to come?"

I just said aggrievedly, "Wei Chen only wanted to soak in the hot spring because of the cold weather, how could he have that kind of thought, what a shame."

Li Zhenrui snorted dissatisfiedly, took off his wet robe, got into the water and approached me.

I hastily stepped back a few steps to the side, not letting him touch me, but he pushed me into a dead corner step by step, and pulled me into his arms in an instant.

"I don't care if you are wronged or not, you don't want to go back tonight." His domineering words made me blush unconsciously, and the strength in my hand also loosened.

Feeling that he would kiss him in the next moment, I turned my head and said softly, "What about Mr. Yagui?"

"I have already sent him back." Li Zhenrui said in a rough voice.

After I had no more worries, the only sound left in the pool was my breathing.

After the ups and downs, Li Zhenrui hooked my chin and asked, "Xi'er, are you asleep?"

I opened my eyes and glared at him somewhat angrily.

Li Zhenrui laughed loudly, "I still like Xi'er the most."

His words made me very uncomfortable, so I couldn't help asking, "Did the emperor say the same when Mr. Yagui was in bed?"

"Is Xi'er jealous?" Li Zhenrui smiled smugly.

I turned around and ignored him, feeling that I was really lighter than a feather, as insignificant as dust, and unknowingly, sadness came from it.

Li Zhenrui leaned on me, and said mysteriously, "I was about to talk to you that day, but was interrupted by Fan Jianbin. Don't you want to know what I want to say?"

I yawned and asked casually, "What does the emperor want to say?"

Li Zhenrui pinched my face with some dissatisfaction, and whispered in my ear, "Concubine, I have only touched you."

I opened my eyes and asked in disbelief, "How is it possible that you invited so many people to sleep with you..."

"Will you definitely touch them if you invite them to sleep?" Li Zhenrui asked back.

I was speechless, and couldn't help asking, "Even if you haven't touched anyone else, would you be moved if Shangguan Wenya sleeps next to you every night?"

I do not believe.

Li Zhenrui is not Liu Xiahui, and Shangguan Wenya is a stunning beauty, how could he not be tempted?

Li Zhenrui said to me seriously, "I won't lie to you."

Li Zhenrui said so, it should be true.

It's just that this is too unbelievable, why doesn't Li Zhenrui touch other male concubines?Because of me?Can I think so?

It is undeniable that there was an indescribable joy in my heart, which swept away all the stagnant energy in my chest since I got married.

None of the things I was most intolerable about didn't exist, which made me smile brightly at him from the bottom of my heart.

Perhaps, I can really get this emperor's love.

Perhaps, we can really be a couple for life.

Unknowingly, a slight rustling sound was heard in the dimness.

I turned over and asked confusedly, "Is the emperor going to court early?"

Li Zhenrui had finished dressing. Hearing this, he turned around and sat on the side of the bed, stroked my hair, and said with a smile, "Xi'er sleep again?"

I grabbed his hand and took a bite lightly, "You woke me up, and I can't sleep now."

Li Zhenrui didn't stop, he tapped the tip of my chin with his index finger, leaned into my ear and said, "I'll make an apology to you when I come down to court."

I chuckled, "Then how does the emperor plan to make amends?"

"You can do whatever you want." Li Zhenrui kissed my forehead lightly.

I pretended to think about it, then put my body around his neck, and said cheerfully, "Then the emperor will go to the court with his humble minister on his back."

Li Zhenrui lowered his face, pinched my nose and refused to let it go, "Nonsense."

I couldn't help laughing out loud, and then retorted, "It doesn't work either, so it doesn't mean it."

"Could it be that I'm so ugly that I can't go to court?" I asked unreasonably.

Li Zhenrui kept looking at me with a conniving smile, and then actually walked around Huaqing Palace with my back on his back.

I laughed until my stomach ached until I finally begged him to put me down.

In fact, he only needs to say: the harem is not allowed to interfere in politics, and I have nothing to say.

But it was also because he didn't say this that we had this morning's happy time.

"Really leaving?" I held his hand reluctantly.

Li Zhenrui kissed the back of my hand, also full of reluctance, and smiled helplessly, "Every time I delay my morning court, it is because of you."

I finally let go, "Your Majesty, go quickly, remember to come for lunch, it's not too late."

Li Zhenrui gave a hearty laugh, and strode away.

After playing around for a while, I was no longer sleepy, so I soaked in the hot spring for a while, and returned to Donghua Pavilion after a little breakfast.

When he had nothing to do, he casually flipped through the new XingXiu book sent by Yushuzhai.

"Your Majesty, a guard came to look for you last night." Die Wu was making tea for me, and said something inadvertently.

"Really?" I glanced at her and asked casually, "Which guard?"

"It seems that his name is Wei Ming, and he said he has something important to see you, but I asked him what it was, but he refused to say it, and then left immediately. It's really inexplicable."

Die Wu's big eyes flashed with doubts, "Does your lord know him?"

I was noncommittal and just continued to read the book.

"It's so strange, Your Majesty lives in seclusion, yet a guard came to look for you specially, and it was still at night...but you are pretty pretty." Die Wu seemed to be talking to herself.

"There are so many strange things," my book slapped her on the head, "If there is something urgent, why did you report it now?"

Die Wu stuck out her tongue, "That guard is mysterious, who knows what's going on, I guess it's not in a hurry."

"In the future, if something happens, it's better to report it in time, understand?" I reminded.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

I shook my head, but I had some doubts about Die Wu in my heart.

If this happened to Dieyi, he would definitely tell me immediately, but Diewu did not.
