"Princess, why did you come back? You really scared me to death."
After Lingyu finished speaking, An Ruowan laughed out loud.
"It's just that the queen asked me to go there. What are you afraid of?"
While talking, An Ruowan entered the room.
"Because of what happened before, the Queen must have some complaints against the Princess. How can I let this servant feel at ease?"
Upon hearing this, An Ruowan couldn't help laughing.
"Is it possible that Princess Ben worked so hard to save people, but in the end she was not left behind?"
Only then did Lingyu realize that she had said the wrong thing in a desperate situation, which made her lower her eyes.
"This slave made a mistake. Please don't take it to heart, the Queen."
Seeing Lingyu's appearance, An Ruowan waved her hand. She didn't take this matter to heart at all.
"How is the princess doing today?"
After hearing her ask about this matter, Lingyu's attention was focused on the bed. Looking at Arina's rosy face, she couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth.
"Please rest assured, princess. The princess's condition has been like this these past few days. She must have improved."
An Ruowan didn't know what Lingyu said in Arzina's ear, but after checking her pulse, she found that the situation seemed to be good, so she nodded and spoke as if she had no intention.
"The things about Concubine Shu that have been rumored in the palace in the past few days..."
Lingyu actually wanted to find someone to talk about this matter in the past few days, but the only person beside her was An Ruowan, which really made her choke.
Today, she finally heard An Ruowan take the initiative to mention this matter, which put a smile on her face, and she quickly told all the news she had heard from outside in the past few days.
"Concubine Shu was not taken seriously before. Perhaps it was for this reason that Concubine Wan didn't take her seriously. I didn't expect that Concubine Shu had a good belly."
"If that's the case, Concubine Wan is the one who most hopes something will happen to Concubine Shu's belly?"
Hearing An Ruowan's words, Lingyu looked to both sides in fright, then patted her chest.
"That's the truth. However, the Emperor's heirs are few. Now that Concubine Shu is pregnant, I'm afraid the Emperor will let people keep an eye on Concubine Wan's movements."
Even Lingyu understood the truth, but An Ruowan felt that even if something was wrong with Concubine Shu's body in front of her, it could not have been done by Concubine Wan.
An Ruowan shook her head when she thought of this. After all, no matter what happened, it probably had nothing to do with her.
Looking at Arina's even breathing on the bedside, An Ruowan suddenly had a thought in her heart, that is, if she could sleep like Arina without caring about the world, it would be quite leisurely.
Just as he was thinking, there were footsteps behind him, and An Ruowan didn't need to look back to guess that this person was Gu Beichen.
Seeing this, Lingyu bowed to An Ruowan and then stepped out.
Gu Beichen strode to An Ruowan and rarely asked anything. He just hugged her into his arms, spraying all the intentionality from his nose on her body, making her shrink back.
"Let me hold you for a while."
There was a hint of exhaustion in Gu Beichen's voice, and he didn't even notice that the title he spoke had changed.
An Ruowan didn't know what happened to him, but when she heard his words, she couldn't help but stop her movements and reached out her hand to pat his back.
After a long time, Gu Beichen sat up from her arms. Looking at An Ruowan's serious questioning, Gu Beichen felt a little embarrassed on his face.
"nothing."
It would be hard for Gu Beichen to tell him that it was actually because he had a nightmare just now that he couldn't wait to see An Ruowan after waking up.
Looking at the expression on Gu Beichen's face, An Ruowan did not continue to ask, but continued to think of what happened just now.
In the afternoon of the next day, An Ruowan saw that the weather outside was good and asked Lingyu to take her out for a walk.
Lingyu felt bored staying in the house these days. Now that she heard An Ruowan take the initiative to mention this matter, Lingyu couldn't wait to take her outside.
However, the two of them were not prepared to go far, just near Arina's dormitory.
But what Lingyu didn't expect was that while the two were admiring the scenery on both sides, they saw a palace man kneeling on the ground not far ahead.
Looking closely, the figure standing there was none other than Concubine Wan. No wonder there was such a big movement.
Looking at the people outside, An Ruowan and Lingyu glanced at each other. They both understood what the other meant from the other's eyes, that is, it would be best to leave here as soon as possible.
The two of them had just turned around, but to their surprise, Concubine Wan was looking over this way and narrowed her eyes.
"But Princess Rong?"
As soon as these words came out, An Ruowan even if he wanted to leave, he was afraid that he would not be able to lift his steps.
"I've met Concubine Wan."
Seeing An Ruowan reveal her identity without raising her head, Concubine Wan became more and more certain that An Ruowan had seen her figure early in the morning but just didn't want to see her, and her eyes were filled with anger.
"Prince Rong is in great spirits."
While talking, Concubine Wan strode to An Ruowan. When she saw her, she couldn't help but think of the day she diagnosed Concubine Shu's pulse.
"After I left that day, what did the Queen say when she asked you and Concubine Shu to stay?"
An Ruowan didn't expect Concubine Wan to speak so frankly, leaving her at a loss as to how to answer.
"Why, I've been told the truth, so you don't dare to admit it?"
Concubine Wan didn't take this matter to heart. She actually wanted to know one thing.
"I ask you, if you answer truthfully, I will let you go this time."
An Ruowan couldn't help but lower her eyes and did not respond.
"Is it really easy for a pregnant person to lose her baby?"
An Ruowan originally thought that Concubine Wan's first sentence was to ask about Concubine Shu's pulse, but she never expected that she would ask such a straightforward question.
Fortunately, the servants in the palace were all kneeling on the ground, and Concubine Wan's voice was not too loud, so these words were not heard by others.
An Ruowan thought for a while and then raised her head, "Of course, a woman's pregnancy is a big deal."
Hearing this, Concubine Wan's face flashed with joy, "What about giving birth to a baby?"
A flash of surprise flashed across An Ruowan's eyes, but she still spoke truthfully.
"A woman will suffer even more when she gives birth to a child. It is tantamount to a trip to hell."
At this time, she saw a flash of joy in Concubine Wan's eyes, "I know that Xiao Dezi will not lie to me."
It seemed that Concubine Wan couldn't be in a better mood. She raised her hand and asked An Ruowan to stand up, "Okay, I have other things to do, so I won't keep you here. You can go back first."
As soon as these words came out, An Ruowan breathed a sigh of relief, turned around and walked back.
After the two of them lost sight of Concubine Wan, Lingyu patted her chest and breathed a sigh of relief.
"I was really scared just now. If such words reach the emperor's ears, I don't know if Concubine Wan is in trouble, but something will happen to me."
