"Physician, how are you?"

"The fetus was disturbed by an external impact. You need to rest for a while and avoid too much emotional fluctuations..."

"Huh? Pregnant?"

"Well, pregnant, and already..."

Lin Qingyan vaguely heard the conversation between Wang Lian and the imperial physician. Someone was pouring medicine into her mouth. She cooperated and swallowed it. After a while, she felt sleepy and lost consciousness again.

When she regained consciousness, Lin Qingyan struggled to open her eyelids and saw everything in front of her clearly. The pain in her abdomen was no longer as severe.

She found herself lying on the bed with an empty bowl not far away. There was no one in the room and she couldn't even find anyone she wanted to ask questions.

If I heard correctly when I was not conscious before, it should be Wang Lian who asked the imperial physician to treat her. Then I was afraid that I would expose both my female body and my pregnancy... I don't know how he will deal with it.

And what about the King of Qi, what happened next?

Lin Qingyan had a lot of questions to ask. She touched her flat belly with a worried look on her face... It seemed that she was really pregnant, but she didn't know if she was still pregnant.

"Squeak-"

The door was pushed open.

Wang Lian walked in slowly with his body bent. He straightened his back only after seeing Lin Qingyan wake up. He approached with a smile, holding a bowl of steaming medicine in his hand.

The bitter taste wafted into Lin Qingyan's nose, and she frowned slightly.

"Miss Qingyan, you are weak now, so you should rest more. I have already asked others to do those tasks. As for you..."

Wang Lian's attitude was respectful and distant, no longer as close as before.

Lin Qingyan gestured a few times, and Wang Lian understood what she meant. She wanted paper and pen, so she went to get them for her.

[You don’t have to be like this… Where are the others of the King of Qi? Are they still causing trouble?]

"It was His Royal Highness the Prince of Qi who asked me to call the imperial physician after he found out you were unconscious..." Wang Lian's expression became complicated as she spoke.

With his status, he couldn't actually invite the imperial physician. Although the King of Qi invited him, some things could not be kept secret.

[He knows about my identity and my pregnancy? ]

Wang Lian nodded and sighed.

He said, "In fact, he didn't know everything. He only knew that you were a woman and pregnant... He didn't make a fuss after that. He asked the imperial physician to take good care of your pregnancy and then left."

【What about you? What do you think? 】

Lin Qingyan looked at him, Wang Lian's eyes dodged and said: "I... I don't have anything to think about, it's just a little unexpected."

[Aren't you curious about whose child this is? ]

You have to know that the harem is full of eunuchs, and there is not a single man who can make a woman pregnant.

"No matter who it belongs to, let's wait until the Ninth Prince comes back. Not many people know about this matter now. The King of Qi has already ordered the doctor not to spread it. I don't know what he means."

Things suddenly became more troublesome, and Wang Lian didn't know how to deal with it. She could only wait for Jiu Qiansui to come back.

【I'm sorry to trouble you. 】

"I'm not a problem. The real problem is Nine Thousand Years Old." Wang Lian waved her hands and smiled bitterly, "Do you know why the palace is full of eunuchs?"

Lin Qingyan shook her head. She really didn't know the reason.

"Because this is the decree of the late emperor, the meaning is clear. Since this is called the 'Eunuch Palace', it must be populated by eunuchs. It's just a joke, so there can only be eunuchs here."

"If someone else shows up, then this castration will be over."

Although Emperor Yongchu has passed away, the edict he left behind is still valid, and anyone with ulterior motives can use it to impeach Yang Li.

【I……】

"But you don't have to blame yourself. Impeachment is nothing to the Ninth Thousand Years Old. He is used to it. When Emperor Yongchu was still alive, he was impeached maliciously countless times. He is still the same Ninth Thousand Years Old, isn't he?"

"What's more, the Ninth Thousand Year Old Man has supported the young emperor to ascend the throne and has seized all the power. This impeachment is nothing. At most, it will make people outside laugh at it."

After hearing Wang Lian many times, I got used to it.

"The only problem is that the King of Qi knows about this. I don't know what he wants to do with this. He has been at odds with the Ninth Thousand Years Old before..."

[Has Jiu Qian Sui always had such a hard time in the palace? ]

Lin Qingyan had heard a lot about Yang Li's tyrannical deeds in the palace, but knew very little about his pitiful side.

"You can't say it's bad. It has both good and bad sides."

"It's not easy for a eunuch to climb to a high position. You can have a chance if you please your master. I don't know much about Jiu Qiansui, but he saved me once when I made a mistake and was about to be sentenced to death by the imperial concubine."

"The people in this palace love to vent their emotions on someone, and Jiu Qian Sui is the best punching bag for them. After all, no matter how much he is beaten or scolded, he doesn't have to worry about getting a bad reputation out. In the end, people outside will just say he deserved it. Maybe it's because of this that the late emperor has always favored Jiu Qian Sui."

Wang Lian stopped talking and didn't continue. She just said, "It has always been like this. There is nothing to say. Just take the medicine and rest in bed. Don't think too much."

Lin Qingyan watched him leave, her back looking lonely.

In fact, she had rarely heard of this person in her previous life. The focus of everyone's discussion was Yang Li and only Yang Li. In their words, no one seemed to like Yang Li.

But she felt that Wang Lian did not hate Yang Li. Although he was often treated harshly by Yang Li, he still tried his best to handle every matter in the eunuch palace. He never belittled Yang Li and really treated him as his master. He would feel sad and upset for him.

In the next few days, Lin Qingyan found that he spoke less and stopped asking questions. He just brought her medicine.

And Yang Li is coming back too.

Lin Qingyan actually didn't know how to face him. She was pregnant, but she was not ready to let him know so soon.

But if she hadn't stood up when the King of Qi came to cause trouble, he would have really destroyed the plum tree. She didn't want the plum tree she had worked so hard to raise to be destroyed, so she had no choice but to stand up...

Suddenly one day, Wang Lian rushed in in a panic.

"Miss Qingyan, the Ninth Prince is back. Go outside and persuade him to let go of His Royal Highness the Prince of Qi. This will only make him even more despised."

Lin Qingyan didn't know what was going on. She got out of bed, put on her clothes, shoes and socks, and walked out the door quickly with him.

Wang Lian didn't say a word on the way. Lin Qingyan was also feeling uneasy, so she followed him with her hands clasped at her sides.

When they arrived at the place, Lin Qingyan understood why Wang Lian was so anxious, because there was a naked man hanging at the door of the eunuch palace!

And that man was none other than the King of Qi Song Yunji who had come to cause trouble before!

Now his body was still covered with hideous whip marks, and he was hanging there in a miserable state. The anger in his eyes seemed to burn everything.

"You damn eunuch! How dare you treat me like this? Do you know who I am? You are such a eunuch, how dare you treat me like this!"

"Don't think you can hide the fact that you have a woman in the palace. She is pregnant with a child. It's really ridiculous. You are a eunuch and you want to find a woman like a man, but you are cuckolded and you are still in the dark!"
