"Doctor Wei, what's wrong?" Ye Chuyan couldn't help but feel a little worried when she saw Dr. Wei's serious expression.
Doctor Wei took back his hand and said respectfully:
"Princess, it's not serious if you fall into the water. It's just that you have been pregnant for more than two months. The cold air soaked your body due to falling into the water today, so you need to rest and take care of your fetus."
Doctor Wei started writing the prescription as he spoke.
"I'm going to give you a prescription. The princess must take it on time. During the pregnancy period, she must not be overworked."
Ye Chuyan, who was half lying on the bed, was startled for a moment, she couldn't believe it.
He cautiously said in a trembling voice: "Doctor Wei, are you sure I'm pregnant?"
Doctor Wei couldn't help but laugh when he saw Ye Chuyan's voice trembling slightly.
"Princess, I have been practicing medicine for decades and will never mistake the happy pulse. Princess, you are really happy!"
Dr. Wei was a royal doctor. He left the palace to open his own medical clinic because he did not want to be restrained by the palace. His medical skills were always among the best.
Ye Chuyan felt like she was struck by lightning when she heard these words. She was so overwhelmed with joy that she couldn't think.
There are only three words left in my mind: We are happy!
She suffered a serious illness when she was young. Not only did she lose her memory, she also suffered from uterine cold. At that time, many doctors said that it was extremely unlikely that she would become pregnant in the future.
In addition, they have been married for three years and have never been pregnant. She thought that she would have no children in this life, but she did not expect that she would be pregnant now.
The maid next to her, Bai Zhi, clasped her hands together excitedly and muttered to the sky.
"Thank you to God and Buddha for blessing me. My princess is finally happy. May my princess give birth to her legitimate son smoothly, and may the prince and princess live happily ever after."
Doctor Wei handed the written prescription to Bai Zhi and repeatedly told him to rest. Bai Zhi hurriedly agreed.
After Bai Zhi took the prescription, she said a lot of congratulations to Ye Chuyan, and then went out to buy medicine happily.
After Bai Zhi left, the room became quiet again.
The purple-glazed lion-ear incense burner with eggplant skin emits wisps of aroma, and the room is filled with heat due to the strong charcoal fire.
Ye Chuyan touched her belly, and her whole body seemed to be floating in the clouds. The huge joy made her feel like a dream.
Her heartbeat was frighteningly fast, and it took her a while to fully believe that she already had a child belonging to her and Pei Xiuyan in her belly.
She had been married to Pei Xiuyan for three years and finally waited for this day.
After Pei Xiuyan got married, he was indifferent to her. If the child was born smoothly, she and Pei Xiuyan could teach the child music, chess, calligraphy and painting together, watch the child grow up little by little, and listen to the child call daddy and mother.
For the sake of the child, would Pei Xiuyan be nicer to her?
Ye Chuyan was immersed in this endless beauty, when there was a loud "bang" and the door was kicked open.
The cold wind outside took the opportunity to fill the house, and the room suddenly felt chilly.
Pei Xiuyan stood at the door with his backlight on, his face as gloomy as water.
As soon as he left the palace today, his servants came to report in a hurry, saying that Zhao Yujiao and Ye Chuyan had a dispute in the attic of the mansion. Ye Chuyan fell into the lotus pond, but it was not serious, while Zhao Yujiao fell from the attic and broke a leg.
Ye Chuyan sighed when he saw Pei Xiuyan standing at the door like an evil spirit.
Pei Xiuyan must be so angry because of Zhao Yujiao. In the mansion, the only person who could make Pei Xiuyan go to such great lengths to settle the score with him was Zhao Yujiao.
Before Ye Chuyan could speak, Pei Xiuyan quickly walked to the bedside and saw that Ye Chuyan was fine, with stars in his eyes and a slight smile on his face, which further confirmed his thoughts.
Ye Chuyan was indeed in a happy mood after pushing Zhao Yujiao down from the attic and breaking a leg.
He couldn't hold back the anger in his heart anymore and grabbed Ye Chuyan's hair.
"Ye Chuyan! You vicious woman! Are you satisfied if Jiaojiao dies? She has no power to restrain a chicken, how could you have the heart to push her down from the attic!"
Ye Chuyan's scalp hurt from being caught and he was very angry.
"Pei Xiuyan, why are you crazy today? You hurt me, let go! It was Zhao Yujiao who pushed me down from the attic and fell into the lotus pond. I never touched her."
Today, Zhao Yujiao asked her to play chess in the attic. She didn't want to go, but Zhao Yujiao kept pestering her, so she went.
Unexpectedly, Zhao Yujiao's maid went to deliver cakes during the chess game.
She had not liked sweets since she was a child, and Zhao Yujiao tried to persuade her again and again. As the two pushed her, she was unprepared and was pushed out of the back window of the attic by Zhao Yujiao and fell into the lotus pond.
She was always afraid of water and was stunned on the spot. Fortunately, the maid Bai Zhi pulled her out of the lotus pond in time.
When she woke up, before she had time to go to Zhao Yujiao to settle the score, the villain sued her first.
Pei Xiuyan gritted his teeth and said, "You also know it hurts? When you pushed Jiaojiao down from the attic and broke her leg, did you ever think that she would be in pain?"
Pei Xiuyan said as he grabbed Ye Chuyan's hair and dragged her out.
Ye Chuyan thought of Doctor Wei's instructions to rest, but for the sake of the fetus in her belly, she did not dare to resist with any big moves.
She shouted while patting Pei Xiuyan's arm:
"Pei Xiuyan, I'm pregnant, you can't drag me like this. I told you, I didn't push Zhao Yujiao downstairs, but she pushed me off the attic and fell into the lotus pond..."
Pei Xiuyan turned around suddenly and looked at Ye Chuyan who was dragged to the ground, his eyes as cold as knives.
"Jiaojiao has no power to bind a chicken. Your skills are among the best in Kyoto. What ability does Jiaojiao have to push you into the lotus pond?"
"Also, don't use pregnancy as a cover, and don't try to deceive me. You have been suffering from cold uterus since childhood, so it is almost impossible to get pregnant!"
Seeing that Pei Xiuyan didn't listen to his explanation, Ye Chuyan took the opportunity to bite Pei Xiuyan on the arm.
Pei Xiuyan suddenly let go of his hand in pain.
Ye Chuyan rubbed his sore scalp.
He said angrily: "Pei Xiuyan, I didn't lie to you. I am more than two months pregnant. I don't know how Zhao Yujiao broke her leg. If you are interested, just ask the servants in the house to find out."
When she fell into the lotus pond, Zhao Yujiao was standing by the window clearly safe and sound.
Even if Zhao Yujiao did break her leg after she fell into the lotus pond, it had nothing to do with her.
Pei Xiuyan saw that Ye Chuyan kept defending himself, and the veins on his forehead throbbed with anger.
He went up and grabbed Ye Chuyan's neck and dragged her out. As he walked, he said, "Go and apologize to Jiaojiao!"
Ye Chuyan was pinched until her eyes were black and her mouth was unable to speak.
She slapped Pei Xiuyan's hands wildly, but Pei Xiuyan felt no pain at all, and the two of them dragged him out of the door.
It is the twelfth lunar month now, and the cold wind is raging outside.
Ye Chuyan was wearing thin clothes and her feet were bare. The cold wind was like a knife and surrounded her wantonly, making her tremble slightly.
When the servants in Ye Chuyan's courtyard saw Pei Xiuyan pinching Ye Chuyan's neck and coming out of the house like a murderous ghost, they all knelt down and saluted without saying a word.
Pei Xiuyan dragged Ye Chuyan all the way to the entrance of Zhao Yujiao's yard.
He threw her to the ground and said word by word: "You! Go in and apologize to Jiaojiao!"
Ye Chuyan gently rubbed his neck while breathing heavily.
She raised her eyebrows angrily.
"Pei Xiuyan, I am the Qing princess you are marrying. Zhao Yujiao is just an unknown girl living in the house. If I wanted her to die, she would not be alive today. I told you why she broke her leg and why she broke her leg with me. It’s irrelevant.”
Ye Chuyansheng's handsome features were different from those of other women in Kyoto, who were generally soft-spoken. She was more heroic, and as a child, she often disguised herself as a man and sneaked into the military camp.
At this moment, she was half-sitting on the ground, with raised eyebrows and angry eyes. She was wearing a white robe, her slender and delicate neck was bruised by pinching, and her jade feet were turned red by the cold. She was quite strangely beautiful.
Pei Xiuyan was slightly startled.
He was so angry just now that he first dragged Ye Chuyan off the bed. Now he saw that Ye Chuyan was shaking slightly from the cold, but he was still stubborn and proud and refused to give in.
He hasn't seen Ye Chuyan like this for a long time.
After getting married, in order to please herself, Ye Chuyan imitated Zhao Yujiao's graceful and restrained attitude all day long. She had always been disdainful to herself, but she didn't expect that today she would show her former flamboyance and nature again.
He sneered repeatedly.
"No more pretending? You are the always virtuous and dignified Princess Qing. She smiles without showing her teeth, walks without taking big steps, and never gets angry. Now you can't pretend anymore, are you showing your true colors?"
