Chapter 161 Difficulties
It was dawn, and if there was an early morning court session today, it would be too late to get up now.
These days, it gets dark earlier and earlier, and the dawn gets later and later. The winter solstice is approaching.
Qin Zhi sat up and looked at the calm face of Yan Shu'er who was sleeping beside him, but he felt a little empty. Yan Shu'er's appearance became more and more delicate.
His gaze moved down to Yan Shuer's abdomen and he stared at it coldly for a moment.
Li Sisi was in the same situation before, poisoned and infertile.
The condition could not be cured, and she got pregnant for unknown reasons, but was unable to give birth.
The time it took Li Sisi to give birth was so quick that all the doctors and midwives who knew about it were amazed.
Are you playing tricks on me?
When Li Sisi gave birth to a deformed stillborn baby, Qin Zhi felt that there was a 70% chance that it was Yan Shuer, the strange person, who was responsible.
The pulse records of the concubines taken by the imperial physicians recorded their physical health conditions every month.
Yan Shuer has never recovered since Liu Yiren gave her a sterilizing drug. She got pregnant so suddenly. Qin Zhi is now 90% sure that it was Yan Shuer who did what happened to Li Sisi.
He would be absolutely certain that the baby would not be born.
Regarding the fact that Yan Shuer has been avoiding Li Sisi recently and not complaining, she has been acting like a victim. It is only a matter of time before Yan Shuer will take action again.
An idea suddenly flashed through Qin Zhi's mind.
"Come here, change your clothes."
The palace maids and eunuchs in the outer room had been waiting for a long time.
The palace maids and eunuchs came in one after another and helped Qin Zhi wash and dress in an orderly manner, and helped him change into casual clothes.
Their movements were light and quick. When Yan Shu'er was awakened by the rustling sound, Qin Zhi had already put on his clothes.
"Your Majesty, why don't you wake me up?" Yan Shu'er muttered as she lay on her side, rubbing her eyes.
"You are already awake but still lying there motionless. If I wake you up, I'm afraid you will criticize me again, complaining that I am not considerate enough and fail to take into account your physical condition during pregnancy, right?"
"Your Majesty, how could I? I will move right now, hehe!"
Yan Shu'er lay down with the edge of the quilt pressed under her body, crawling like a caterpillar.
Qin Zhi laughed at this.
"Have a good rest and go out less during this period of pregnancy." Qin Zhi advised in a gentle voice.
"Your Majesty, how can I stay idle?" Yan Shu'er only showed her delicate face. She wrapped herself tightly, swaying her body from side to side and acting coquettishly.
Qin Zhi looked down at the naughty Yan Shuer with a smile, without saying a word.
The words "You can try it" seemed to be written in his eyes.
"Okay, I will obey your majesty. I will not go out of the main gate or the secondary gate. I will stay in Changchun Palace and take good care of my pregnancy. I will never go out and wander around. I will send you a message."
Seeing Qin Zhi's tough attitude, Yan Shu'er was very tactful. She immediately threw back the quilt and climbed up, sitting upright on the bed, raising four fingers coquettishly, and swearing in an inappropriate posture.
Qin Zhi ignored her deliberate mischief, nodded, turned around and left.
When he crossed the threshold, he suddenly turned around and said:
"If you get rid of the child, I don't care who is responsible. You have to go back to the Imperial Garden and continue to be your maid of honor."
Upon hearing this, Yan Shuer opened her red lips slightly and looked at Qin Zhi with aggrieved eyes.
Cursing in my heart.
"Your Majesty is so unreasonable. If someone deliberately caused me to lose my child, I would have to endure not only the heart-wrenching pain, but also the hardship of going back home. How can this be justified?
If your majesty hadn't said anything, I would have taken precautions, but how could other concubines have predicted this? This world is always full of surprises."
Yan Shuer's voice became lower and lower, and Qin Zhi just sneered.
"This is your business."
"But I am not completely unreasonable. If Shu'er can give birth to the prince safely and smoothly, I will make you a noble concubine and order everyone, including me, not to discuss your background. I will no longer say that I will send you back to serve the emperor. Is that okay?"
"I am not ashamed of my origin. I have risen from a humble palace maid to my current position. Doesn't this show that I am even better in myself?"
"Then you're going back to the Imperial Garden now? Is that okay?"
"Please don't, Your Majesty. I will take good care of the heir in my belly. I swear."
"Okay, I'm going back now. If you have any questions, send someone to find Zhang Deli. The Queen's body is much more precious than yours. Don't bother her too much, understand?"
"Got it." Dog Emperor.
Qin Zhi suddenly turned around and asked, "What?"
what?
Yan Shuer's eyes were full of fear.
Did I say it?
"what?"
Qin Zhi stared into Yan Shuer's eyes for a long while before he chuckled and said, "I suspect you are slandering me, so I am trying to trick you."
"Your Majesty!" Dog Emperor!!!
