Rebirth: The Fourth Lady Wants to Lie Down

On the winding palace road of the Forbidden City, two intricately decorated carriages run side by side, but each carries different thoughts and destinies.

In Wu Gege's carriage, she was wearing gorgeous clothes, with a barely perceptible worry between her brows. Her eyes would occasionally pass through the gap in the window, following closely behind the carriage of Nianhulu in front of her.

"Lianxiang, look at the carriage of Niuhulu. It moves very steadily."

There was a subtle hint of sarcasm in Wu Gege's voice. She gently stroked the embroidered handkerchief in her hand, but her eyes revealed deep concern.

Lianxiang understood and said softly, "Yes, Gege, but who can guarantee that the roads in this palace will always be smooth?"

Before he finished his words, suddenly, a burst of hurried horse hooves broke the silence, followed by the roar of a heavy object falling to the ground - Niuhulu's carriage unexpectedly overturned!

A hint of pleasure flashed across Wu Gege's eyes, but was immediately replaced by deeper worry.

"It's fate that I was looking forward to..." She stopped talking abruptly, realizing that she shouldn't show her true emotions in such an occasion.

Upon seeing this, Lianxiang hurried forward to comfort her, but in her heart she already knew what the princess had not finished saying.

"Princess, don't be anxious. Who can tell what's going on in the palace? Perhaps this is just a warning, not the end." Lianxiang's words were full of comfort, but also revealed uncertainty about the future.

When the carriage was on the road again, Wu Gege's heart could not calm down for a long time. Although she did not say it out loud, her hatred for Niuhulu and the fetus in her belly had spread like weeds in her heart.

"Lianxiang, tell me, if that child really..." She didn't finish her words, but the determination in her eyes was enough to explain everything.

Lianxiang's heart trembled, but she also understood her own princess's situation and difficulties.

"Princess, I understand what you mean. However, we must be cautious in dealing with matters in the palace. I will always keep an eye on the movements of the Niuhulu family and look for the right opportunity."

Her words were firm and loyal, which comforted Wu Gege a little.

As the night deepened, the carriage moved slowly forward. Wu Gege and Lianxiang sat facing each other in silence, but the tacit understanding and determination between them needed no further explanation.

Wu Gege knew that although her family background was not as prominent as that of the Niuhulu clan, she could only rely on her own wisdom and means to secure her position in the harem. And Lianxiang was her most reliable helper.

"Lianxiang, from now on, you must observe carefully. Once we have the chance, we must..."

Wu Gege's voice was low and firm, with an unquestionable light in his eyes.

When Lianxiang heard this, she felt a warm current in her heart, and at the same time, she became more determined.

"Don't worry, Princess. I will live up to your trust and swear to eliminate this great threat for you."

She silently made a vow in her heart, preparing to face the upcoming unknown challenges.

The sunlight shone through the newly replaced carriage curtains onto Niuhulu's gentle face. She sat quietly on the cushion, sipping the fragrant tea that Cuiyun had just brewed for her. The delicate tea fragrance seemed to temporarily relieve the uneasiness in her heart.

Nianhulu's hand unconsciously stroked her bulging belly, where she and Yinzhen's child was being nurtured, and it was her biggest concern at the moment.

"Master, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell?"

Cuiyun carefully observed Niuhulu's expression, and when she saw her brows slightly furrowed, she hurriedly asked with concern. She noticed that her master's hand was gently rubbing her abdomen, and she couldn't help but feel nervous.

Niuhulu gently supported herself on the edge of the table, trying to steady her breathing, but the pain on her face was hard to conceal.

"My belly... the baby in my belly seems... a little restless."

She tried to make her voice sound calm, but the indescribable discomfort made her words seem a little intermittent.

When Cuiyun heard this, her face suddenly changed and she said quickly, "Master, what should we do? I will ask the imperial physician to take a look!" As she said that, she turned around and ran out.

Upon seeing this, Niu Hulu quickly reached out her hand and weakly but firmly grabbed Cuiyun's sleeve.

"No, Cuiyun, you can't go."

She panted, a trace of worry flashing in her eyes, "If I call the imperial physician now, the news of my pregnancy will spread like wildfire. In this backyard, I can't be careless until the baby is stable."

Cuiyun felt mixed emotions when she heard this. She was worried about her master's safety, but she also understood the interests involved.

She gritted her teeth and asked, "Then Master, what should we do?"

Niuhulu took a deep breath, tried to calm herself, and took out a small porcelain bottle from her sleeve. It contained pregnancy-preserving pills that they had specially prepared before leaving.

"Go get some warm water. I'll take this pill and it should help. Remember, this matter cannot be made public. We have to be careful."

Cuiyun nodded quickly, quickly went to get some warm water, and helped Niuhulu swallow the pill. As the pill slowly melted, Niuhulu's frown gradually relaxed, and the fetal movement in her abdomen gradually subsided.

She gently stroked her belly, her eyes full of tenderness and determination: "Child, mother will protect you."

The carriage was peaceful again, but beneath this peace, Niuhulu was deeply worried and determined. She knew that the road ahead was still long, and she had to be careful at every step, just to protect the hard-earned love between mother and son.
