The sky was dark and the maid keeping watch had already gotten up.
Yun Si raised a corner of the tent and stared at the dim sky outside. It took a long time before she remembered where she was.
She was in her bedroom, just waking up from her dream.
Yun Si carefully checked her body. Apart from some sweat and tears, she seemed to have no other problems in her sleep.
But Yun Si didn't dare to take it lightly.
Last night's dream was different from the previous ones. In last night's dream, the man finally broke through the bottom line that she had been guarding carefully.
Yun Si folded her hands and pressed them on her flat belly. The soreness and swelling in her dream seemed to still remain in her body, as if it were real...
Yun Si comforted herself that it was just a dream, and dreams were all fake. No matter what she did in her dream, it had nothing to do with reality.
But the persuasion that could calm her down quickly in the past had no effect this time. Yun Si's heart was pounding all the time. She couldn't help but worry, was the dream really irrelevant to reality?
Yun Si has heard of more than one myth about pregnancy due to sexual intercourse.
The mother of Fuxi and Nuwa stepped on the footsteps of the God of Thunder and became pregnant, and gave birth to Fuxi and Nuwa.
After all, stepping on footprints is different from dreaming... Yun Si just wanted to comfort herself like this, but she immediately remembered that Emperor Yan's mother became pregnant after dreaming of the dragon, and then gave birth to Emperor Yan!
It can be seen that although there are few cases of pregnancy due to dreams, there are still some!
Yun Si was extremely panicked. For the first time, she hated herself for reading too many books and knowing too many stories. It would be better if she didn't know anything.
Yun Si was lying on the bed, crying silently. She was so scared that she cried.
Will she get pregnant? What if she gets pregnant?
She is not married yet, how should she explain to her father and mother? How should I explain it to the Xie family who got engaged?
If she gets pregnant out of wedlock and cannot tell who the father is, she will be beaten to death by her father and mother! The Prime Minister's Mansion will become the laughingstock of the whole capital!
Cold tears slid down Yun Si's cheeks. If she had dreamed of an ordinary man, she might not be so worried.
But what she dreamed about was His Majesty, the Emperor.
Sons of God are different from ordinary people. In mythology, women who become pregnant due to emotions, the men they dream about and the children they give birth to have extraordinary life experiences.
...and so does she.
The more Yun Si thought about it, the more frightened she became. If ordinary men couldn't get a woman pregnant in their dreams, surely the emperor could?
"Lu Ya, I want to take a bath." Yun Si called out.
Lu Ya quickly opened the curtain and entered the room with a surprised look on her face. A girl wants to take a bath so early in the morning?
Yun Si nodded and told Lu Ya that she heard correctly, "I sweated at night and I don't feel refreshed. I want to take a bath."
Lu Ya immediately arranged for the kitchen to send hot water for Yun Si to bathe. I reflected on whether I had dried the bedding too hot with a soup pot before going to bed last night, and decided to dry it less before going to bed tonight.
Or is the brocade quilt too thick?
Lu Ya took out all the brocade quilts on the bed to wash and dry them, and replaced them with clean and fresh ones for Yun Si. After thinking about it, I changed into one with the same thickness. Now that the weather is getting cold, I will catch a cold if the quilt is too thin.
When Yun Si was taking a bath, she asked the maids to leave a small mirror, and then drove the maids out, not allowing them to stay to serve her.
"Girl, do you really don't want us to stay?" Luya asked worriedly, thinking that the girl had made this mistake again.
I don’t know what’s going on recently. The girls don’t let them take baths every now and then. But how can girls bathe themselves? I can't do it alone, so I often have to wait for them to wash it again.
Yun Si insisted on bathing by herself, so the maids had no choice but to retreat.
After the maids had all retreated, Yun Si listened carefully and heard that the maids had gone away. She picked up the small bronze mirror like a thief.
She wanted to take a look... to see if she was still a virgin.
Yun Si got out of the bathtub wetly. Holding back her shame, she stretched the small mirror down and squinted her eyes to see the picture reflected in the small bronze mirror...
But after looking at it for a long time, Yun Si didn't understand it.
Experienced aunts will know if they are virgins. Yun Si knew that there would be such a selection process during the palace draft.
But Yun Si doesn’t know how!
Who can tell her what is a virgin and what is not?
Yun Si suppressed her shame and looked at it for a long time, but in the end she didn't understand it.
The doors and windows were obviously closed tightly, but the cold wind still came in from nowhere, making Yun Si's skin cold and causing goosebumps all over her body.
"Ah sneeze——"
Yun Si sneezed and quickly returned to the bathtub, having to give up her own judgment with the bronze mirror.
She originally thought that if she was still a virgin, then she would be safe and would not get pregnant due to the dream.
If she is no longer a virgin, it would be dangerous. Maybe she will become pregnant like in the myth!
In addition to worrying about her pregnancy, Yun Si also had other worries - when she got married, during the bridal night, a white hikerchief would be spread on the bed to verify whether the bride was a virgin.
If she is no longer... what should Xipa do on her wedding night?
She must figure this out before she gets married!
But Yun Si never expected that her difficulty was that she couldn't tell the difference at all. I stared at the small bronze mirror for a long time, but couldn't understand anything.
There is no way to ask others about this kind of thing!
Yun Si was so angry that she threw the small bronze mirror with a clang!
"Girl, what's wrong?" the maid standing outside asked immediately.
Yun Si took a deep breath and calmed her voice: "It's okay, I accidentally dropped the bronze mirror."
"You guys come in and wait for me to take a bath." Yun Si said.
The maids filed in to wait for Yun Si to take a bath.
Lu Ya chirped and said: "Girl, how can you take a bath by yourself? Let us do it in the future!"
Jin Ming and Bai Hao looked at each other. They were both careful and realized that Yun Si was hiding something on her mind.
When he was alone with Yun Si, Bai Hao asked secretly: "Girl, what's on your mind?"
"We are willing to help girls solve their problems."
Yun Si felt moved in her heart, but no one could help her with her worries. She shook her head: "Nothing."
After a while, Yun Si asked softly: "Baihao, do you think there is any way... to postpone the wedding date for you?"
Baihao gasped in fright: "Girl, don't you want to marry Prince Xie?"
Yun Si was silent for a moment and said, "Think about it..."
She wants to marry her cousin.
But she didn't want to have such a dream and marry her cousin.
She is now extremely scared, afraid that she will become pregnant, afraid that she is no longer a virgin...
How could she be her cousin's bride with peace of mind?
Yun Si wanted to figure it all out for herself, end it all, and then marry her cousin openly and without secrets.
