"I beg Your Majesty to forgive me! Your Majesty, please forgive me! I made a mistake in the chaos at that time. I thought I was pulling a palace maid, but I didn't expect it was Concubine Chun! I beg Your Majesty to forgive me! ..."

Yuan Yiqing knelt on the ground and kowtowed to the emperor continuously.

"Aren't the lives of palace maids lives? They can die to save the Lord, but you can't take their lives at the cost of your own!" The emperor scolded coldly, and Yuan Yiqing just knelt down and begged for mercy.

"And if you hadn't insisted that day, I would not have agreed to enter the forest! I was injured too! You are unforgivable!" The emperor glared at Yuan Yiqing, then glanced at Concubine Hua, who also knelt down hurriedly.

It was she who persuaded the emperor to agree to Yuan Yiqing that day!

"Your Majesty, please forgive me! I was also deceived by Concubine Yuan. I was so stupid that I didn't realize she was using me. I beg Your Majesty to investigate!"

The emperor's injury might be related to this bitch. Even if it's not, Chun Changzai died in her hands, so she is guilty of a heinous crime! I beg the emperor to give Chun Changzai justice!"

As soon as Concubine Hua opened her mouth, she pushed all the blame onto Yuan Yiqing, and the last two sentences were meant to punish her!

Especially since the emperor was assassinated, even if it had nothing to do with their Yuan family, the emperor would not let the Yuan family go.

"Su Peisheng, pass down the decree. Yuan conspired to murder the concubine. She has a bad personal morality and a vicious heart. Her crime is extremely heinous. She shall be demoted to a commoner, banished to the cold palace, and given a white silk."

The emperor spoke, Su Peisheng agreed, and Yuan Yiqing knelt down and cried:

"Your Majesty! Please forgive me! Please spare me! I will never dare to do it again! Your Majesty!"

The emperor frowned slightly, Su Peisheng raised his hand, and a guard covered his mouth and dragged him out.

"It's getting late. Let's all go back and rest. Rong'er should also go back and have a good rest. If you need anything, just send someone to find Su Peisheng."

The emperor stood up as he spoke. Su Peisheng nodded towards An Lingrong and went to help the emperor stand up.

"Your Majesty is respectfully escorted." The concubines stood up and saluted, and the emperor was carried behind a screen by a little eunuch.

Everyone left, and Concubine Xin hurried over to support An Lingrong and said, "You are pregnant now, so you must be careful, especially in the first three months, which are the most important."

"Thank you Sister Xin for the reminder." An Lingrong said with a smile. Shen Meizhuang also looked at An Lingrong's belly with a happy look on her face.

"Since Concubine Yi is pregnant, the Emperor asked you to take good care of yourself, so stay here and come out less often in the future..."

Hua Fei glanced at An Lingrong. Although she was angry, she still proudly adjusted the peony on her temples and turned away...

"Congratulations to Concubine Yi on your pregnancy." Cao Qinmo was a person who knew the rules. She bowed to An Lingrong and then quickly caught up with Concubine Hua.

"Farewell, Empress Hua." Several people bowed and spoke, but Empress Hua didn't even turn her head.

Concubine Jing at the side comforted her: "You know, she is just like that. Now that you are pregnant, don't take it to heart."

"I'm fine." An Lingrong gave Concubine Jing a look of gratitude, and then they all walked towards An Lingrong's yurt together.

After a few people came in and sat down, An Lingrong remembered "Feixue" and hurriedly sent Xiao Zhongzi to find Liangzi, telling her that "Feixue" was missing and that she should find someone to look for her tomorrow and return her animal skin bag to her.

Xiao Zhongzi agreed and left. The others accompanied An Lingrong to eat something, told her to have a good rest, and then they all stood up and said goodbye.

The next morning, Xiao Zhongzi came to report that Feixue had returned yesterday. When he went to look for Liangzi, Liangzi was just about to get up to look for An Lingrong.

"I'm glad you're back." An Lingrong nodded.

"My lady, this is what Miss Liangzi asked me to bring to you. She said she heard that you were pregnant and that the baby would be born with this to ward off evil spirits, so she asked me to bring it back."

After Xiao Zhongzi finished speaking, he took out a small animal skin bag from his arms and handed it over.

An Lingrong took it, opened it and saw that it was the evil-repelling bracelet inside, and she felt grateful.

"Juqing, go to the storehouse and find a return gift, something practical, and have Xiao Zhongzi deliver it. If it weren't for Feixue and her bringing food, the emperor and I would have starved to death in that cave." An Lingrong put away the bracelet and gave the order, and Juqing nodded in response.

The weather was getting colder and the emperor was injured again, so returning to the palace was urgent. So as soon as the emperor no longer had a fever, everyone started to set off for the palace.

On the way, because An Lingrong was pregnant, the emperor was afraid that she could not bear the bumps, so he allowed An Lingrong to ride in the big carriage with him, so that she could avoid some of the pain...

In fact, An Lingrong did not feel any discomfort during the whole journey, but she would definitely take the comfortable carriage...

After traveling for five or six days, they arrived at the palace near evening. When the carriage entered the Forbidden City, Concubine Duan, Wen Yi, Fu Cha, and Zhen Huan were waiting at the palace gate.

The emperor and everyone got off the carriage, and the three of them stepped forward to pay their respects. The emperor raised his hand and glanced at Zhen Huan, but said nothing, and then took the warm sedan chair into the palace.

The concubines also returned to the palace, and Fu Cha went back to Chengqian Palace with An Lingrong.

"How is it? I heard that you are pregnant? Can you bear the bumpy journey?" Fu Cha helped An Lingrong into Chengqian Palace.

"I'm fine. I haven't felt any discomfort along the way. If it weren't for Imperial Doctor Meng and Imperial Doctor Zhang taking my pulse every day and reminding me every day, I wouldn't have thought I was pregnant." An Lingrong said with a smile. The two of them sat opposite each other on the Luohan bed and talked.

"That's good. The first three months are the most critical, so you must pay more attention to it. I brought some supplements with you. You should stay at home these days if you can. Just take good care of yourself here." Fu Cha looked at An Lingrong's lower abdomen and spoke with a smile.

"Look how nervous you are. What about Wangshu? How is she now? Has she grown up?" An Lingrong asked, holding Fu Cha's hand.

"She's getting fatter and fatter. She can even roll over now. It's cold today, so I can't bring her here. I'll bring her here for you to see when the weather is nice." Fu Cha said, with a smile on his face that he couldn't hide. It was a smile from the bottom of his heart...

"I heard that the emperor was assassinated, and it was you who saved the emperor?" Fu Cha seemed to have just remembered and asked in surprise.

After hearing this, An Lingrong just nodded and said nothing.

"That's a good thing!" Fu Cha spoke, patted An Lingrong's hand, raised his eyebrows and looked at her.

"Don't talk nonsense. Aren't you afraid that someone will hear it?" An Lingrong joked. Fu Cha quickly covered his mouth, but the smile on his face did not diminish at all.

"How could it be such a coincidence? There's no one else here." Fu Cha looked outside and saw that there was indeed no one there, so he smiled and said.

She only dared to say such a rebellious thing in front of An Lingrong...
