After washing up in the evening, Ying Zheng hugged me and lay on the soft bed. The hard work and bumps during the day made me fall asleep soon. The faint smell of grass and wood mixed with ambergris floated on the tip of my nose. This is what I have been doing for more than a month.

The most restful night's sleep.

When I woke up the next morning, Ying Zheng was no longer around. I opened my eyes, stretched and stood up from the bed. A maid immediately came to serve me.

"Miss Qingchi, your Majesty is discussing matters with the county governor in the hall and has ordered me to wait here. May I ask if the girl can sleep well?"

"Well, I've slept well. Help me up quickly." My feet were injured and I had difficulty moving. Xiao Zi dressed me up carefully and considerately. She tied up my long hair and inserted it into the hairpin. Jin Buyao said, "Girl is naturally beautiful. Put it on.

This splendid dress certainly makes you look elegant, but your complexion is not good and your hands and feet are cold. Let's eat some red dates and longan porridge to warm up."

I finished a bowl of porridge, and Ying Zheng happened to come in from outside the house. When he saw me putting down the bowl, he said: "Qingchi is so thin, I can rest assured if he eats more." After saying that, he picked up another bowl of porridge and held the spoon himself.

Feed me, I laugh, "My feet are injured, not my hands. I'll do it myself."

"Qingchi, it's time for us to set off. If we wait for two more days, we can return to the palace." Ying Zheng said as he fed me, not listening to my little protest, as if watching me eat was a great pleasure to him.

"Well, please slow down." I protested that he was feeding too fast.

"Qingchi, eat more. I saw you were so skinny last night. You have been suffering for more than a month. Eat more."

"Yeah, okay." I had to eat it obediently, not wanting him to worry.

------☆------☆------☆------☆------

After two tiring days of traveling, we finally returned to Xianyang Palace.

Xu Fu was ordered to check my pulse. When I saw him holding back his hand and lowering his eyes and saying nothing, I asked: "How is it? Is the baby okay?"

Xu Fu touched his beard and said: "Miss Qingchi is weak, and her qi and blood are not flowing smoothly. The turbid qi sinks and the cold air enters her body. She needs to be recuperated. Weichen will first prescribe some prescriptions for replenishing qi and blood."

"What about the baby?" Seeing that he avoided mentioning it, I asked again.

Xu Fu frowned and said: "The pulse of the fetus in the belly is weak. To be honest with the girl, this is a dangerous sign. If the mother wins, the son will win. If the mother loses, the son will lose. The mother and the child are conjoined. Please give the girl a good life and nurse her back for a while, and then I will take the girl's place."

Check your pulse to see if it's getting better."

I nodded repeatedly and said, "Don't tell your Majesty beforehand."

Xu Fu looked at me in confusion, then cupped his hands and said, "Hi!"

Watching Xu Fu's leaving figure, I leaned on the bed and Xiaolu covered me with a brocade quilt.

Since I came back that day, I have felt physically weak. Even though I put on a lot of clothes, my hands and feet are still cold. Just as Xu Fu said, my body is extremely thin. I don’t want to tell Ying Zheng and make him worry about me. Recuperation is not something that can be done in a day.

He was running around looking for me, not wanting to eat or drink for days, and his body suffered a lot as a result. In addition, he ignored government affairs for many days, and now there was a mountain of political affairs waiting for him to deal with. As soon as he returned to Xianyang Palace, he and the ministers went to the side hall.

I don't want him to be distracted by me when discussing matters and handling urgent military affairs.

Xu Fu did not tell Ying Zheng the truth about my health afterwards, but said that I needed to take good care of myself. Ying Zheng sent his accompanying medical officer Xia Wuqi to take care of my daily nourishing meals.

Within a month of returning to the palace, my belly quickly showed signs of dew. Lying in Ying Zheng's arms at night, he touched my belly and sighed: "She has grown so fast these days, she is almost sucking all your flesh and blood dry."

, I want her to stop."
