As soon as she returned to Shuihua Palace, Pei Gongcuo placed Hua Mian on the bed and let her rest. Soon after, the Imperial Physician arrived.

It's just that when the imperial doctor finished diagnosing the pulse, he didn't say that the condition was prescribed, but when he turned around and knelt, Hua Mian couldn't help but be a little confused. And when he said, "Congratulations to the emperor, the concubine is happy", Hua Mian almost dropped his jaw in shock. Look at Wantao on the side, it is also incredible.

Seeing that Pei Gongcuo was about to order someone to reward the imperial doctor with a look of ecstasy after a short period of stunnedness, Hua Mian hurriedly grabbed his sleeve and said, "Your Majesty, I'm afraid the imperial doctor made a mistake, the concubine just came to menstrual last night." ”

"What did you say?"

Seeing that the emperor's face turned from sunny to cloudy, the imperial physician looked at him suspiciously, and hurriedly explained: "Back to the emperor, this is exactly what Weichen wants to say, Niangniang is indeed pregnant, but the fetus is unstable, and there are red signs." ”

Hearing him say this, Hua Mian finally understood, no wonder there has not been much bleeding since this day, it turned out that it was not menstrual blood, but redness. This realization made her heart feel like a haze, and she was so depressed that she couldn't breathe. What are you really afraid of, why hasn't anyone in his harem been pregnant for more than three years, and he has been hit once?

A flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in her mind, and she couldn't help but panic in her heart. A month and a half ago, she and Ji Yunye also had sex, so who would this child be? If it is really Brother Ye's, even if he wants it, Pei Gongcuo will never tolerate it. What will you do then? Threaten to die to keep this child? But if you do this, what will you care about the face of an emperor? At this moment, her heart was in a mess, and the voices of Pei Gongcuo and the imperial doctor in her ears seemed to be far away, until she heard Pei Gongcuo ask the imperial doctor a question, and she pulled back her thoughts.

After the imperial doctor explained the reason for seeing Hong, Pei Gongcuo couldn't help but feel a little ashamed on his face. If he knew that Hua Mian was pregnant, he would not have asked her for her last night. It's just that he suddenly thought of a question, Hua Mian had a private meeting with Ji Yunye a month and a half ago, if this child is Ji Yunye's, how should he decide? If she was to be defeated, it would definitely break her heart. If you keep it, you will feel uncomfortable again. After weighing it, he even thought that no matter who the child was, he would treat it as his own. However, when I thought of the possibility that this child was not my own, my heart was painful.

After some struggle, he decided that it was better to ask clearly, so he said, "I don't know how long the concubine has been pregnant?" ”

The meaning of this sentence could not be more obvious, he wanted to confirm that the child was not his own. Hua Mian couldn't help laughing at herself, just let it be fate.

The imperial doctor had already gotten up, bowed down and asked Hua Mian at this moment, "May I ask how many days is Niangniang's menstrual delay?" ”

Hua Mian didn't want to hide it, and said honestly: "Half a month." ”

"That's right." The imperial doctor said to Pei Gongcuo, "Niangniang has been pregnant for a month and a half. ”

Although she was mentally prepared, Hua Mian was still shocked, she couldn't help but look at Pei Gongcuo, but saw that there was no obvious change on his face and said to the imperial doctor: "There is also Imperial Doctor Lao Zhang who bothered to regulate the body of the concubine. Also, I wonder if the injury on her head is a big deal? ”

The imperial doctor said: "Fortunately, it didn't hurt the inside, but it was just a blood block." Because Niangniang is pregnant, it is not suitable to take the decoction of blood circulation and blood stasis, so Weichen turned around and prescribed some external ointment and sent it over, and it can be cured after a few days. ”

Pei Gongcuo nodded and said, "You can go down and prescribe medicine." ”

After the imperial doctor retreated, Pei Gongcuo let out a long breath, then turned around and sat on the edge of the bed and hugged Hua Mian tightly into his arms, and said unsteadily: "Do you know Mian'er? I'm so happy today. ”

Hua Mian looked up at him in astonishment, her eyes full of joy. What the hell is going on?

Pei Gongcuo seemed to know what she was thinking, rubbed her hair and said, "I'll let Imperial Doctor Zhang explain to you later." ”

Although Hua Mian didn't say anything, she couldn't help but be suspicious in her heart.

When the imperial physician came to deliver the medicine, Pei Gongcuo said: "Please also ask Imperial Physician Zhang to explain to Concubine Burmese that we have only been in the same room for a month, how could she be pregnant for a month and a half." ”

The imperial doctor smiled slightly and said to Hua Mian: "The time of pregnancy is different from the time of fetal sitting. The time of pregnancy we talk about is generally calculated from the first day of the last menstrual event, but from the pulse point of view, the cycle of the mother is long, so Weichen asked you how long the menstrual period has been delayed, so as to calculate the pregnancy time. As for the time of conception and fetal sitting, it is generally about half a month before menstruation, and you are now delayed by half a month, so you should have been pregnant a month ago, and the pulse is also in line with the indications for one month. ”

After hearing and understanding the explanation of the imperial doctor, Hua Mian couldn't help but say abruptly: "So that's the case." ”

Pei Gongcuo saw her depression in her eyes, and her heart was somewhat hurt, but from her point of view, it was indeed a little difficult to accept being pregnant with a child who she didn't love, so she no longer dwelled on it, and only hoped that through the bond of the child, she could enter her heart as soon as possible.

After the imperial doctor stepped down, Wan Tao took the medicine bowl and asked to feed Hua Mian with medicine. Pei Gongcuo took it and said, "There is me here, you can go down." ”

Wan Tao nodded in response, but saw that there was no joy on Hua Mian's face, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart, turned around and retreated.

Pei Gongcuo blew the medicine spoonful by spoonful and fed it to Hua Mian's mouth, and after feeding the medicine, she also sent the Xiyan small red dates that she loved to eat since she was a child.

Hua Mian couldn't help but ask: "How does the emperor know that his concubines love to eat this kind of jujube?" ”

Pei Gongcuo carefully applied the ointment to her head injury and said, "I asked Wan Tao, and she said that you like to eat this, so I ordered the imperial dining room to buy some, and I just arrived today, which happened to come in handy." ”

He spoke leisurely, and his expression and demeanor were extremely gentle. Hua Mian's heart suddenly felt a little sour, and an urge to cry arose. Just now, she was still thinking about how to beat this child unconsciously, and now seeing that he cared so much, she couldn't help but hate her ruthlessness. The child is innocent, even if he is unwilling, he should not be deprived of his right to live, not to mention that there is a person who is so looking forward to his arrival.

In a short period of time, Hua Mian's heart has experienced a turbulent change. At this moment, she has changed from the initial rejection to the current resignation. Brother Ye, if I want to return to you one day, leaving him a child as a thought can be regarded as a kind of compensation, right?

After being silent for a long time, she said faintly: "Can the emperor not spread the news that his concubine is pregnant?" ”

Pei Gongcuo was stunned: "Why don't you want others to know?" ”

Hua Mian sighed: "The harem is deep, I was the last to enter the palace but the first to be pregnant with a dragon fetus, it is inevitable to attract jealousy, in order to give birth to a child smoothly, the less people know, the better." ”

Pei Gongcuo was a little stunned, since she could say this, it meant that she cared about this child very much, did that mean that her heart was likely to gradually tilt towards him? This realization suddenly made his heart flutter, and he nodded and said, "That's right, it's me who thinks about it." I will ask Wan Tao to go to the Tai Hospital to remind Imperial Doctor Zhang and tell him to keep his mouth shut. In addition, let Wan Tao catch the medicine in the imperial pharmacy and take it back to the Shuihua Palace to suffer, if someone asks, it will be said that the concubine is cold, and she drinks the medicine that nourishes the body. Isn't that good? ”

Hua Mian smiled lightly and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty." ”

Pei Gongcuo smiled: "What else do you want to thank me?" Your business is my business. ”

The smile on Hua Mian's face froze slightly, and she changed the topic and said, "Don't pursue Concubine Zhuang Xian, I don't want to make extraneous branches." ”

"Well, I listen to you." Pei Gongcuo held her hand tightly and sighed, "Myanmar, I am about to have my own child, and I will definitely love you and our child in the future." ”

These words led to the sourness in her heart, but they also aroused a doubt in her, and she couldn't help asking: "After the emperor ascended the throne, he accepted the concubine, and now it has been more than three years, why is no one pregnant with a dragon heir?" ”

Pei Gongcuo didn't seem surprised at all that she would ask this question, and she didn't hide it: "Because I don't want children yet." ”

Hua Mian couldn't help but be a little confused, why did she be so happy when she didn't want a child? And, how do you use contraception?

Hua Mian's expression was full of incredulity, and Pei Gongcuo thought that her appearance was very interesting, so he chuckled and rubbed her hair and said, "You must be very puzzled why I alone let you conceive a child." ”

Seeing what Hua Mian was waiting for him with anticipation, he continued: "Although I can't say that there are countless women, there are not a few women who have been seen, although there are not many women in my harem, they are all gentle and lovely, and they are decent, but for some reason, there is always a feeling that makes my heart pound. I can't tell you what it feels like, I just think it's a kind of affection accumulated in the past. Until I met you, I liked you at first sight, and the more I got to it, the more I couldn't extricate myself. I am convinced that you are the one I have to wait, perhaps for more than one lifetime. I knew from the beginning that none of the women in the harem were the queens I was waiting for, so every time I had sex with them, I avoided their fertile period. ”

Hua Mian was not shocked in her heart, such an affectionate confession, no one could resist, but she was afraid of hearing such heartfelt words, which would only slowly destroy her heart defense, and finally make her collapse in the whirlpool of emotions.

She forced her composure and said: "The emperor is serious, how can the concubine He De be so loved by you." The women of the harem are all the emperor's women, and they all care about the emperor, and the emperor must not say such things again, which will make them sad. Besides, as a woman, who doesn't want to have a child of her own, it would be cruel for the emperor to do this. ”

Pei Gongcuo smiled bitterly: "If you change to other women, they don't know how happy they will be, but you not only don't appreciate my love, but also punish my heart." After a pause, he added, "What you said is true, I will do what you say, but I don't plan to let them get pregnant until you give birth to the prince." ”

"You must be wondering why, right?" Seeing that Hua Mian just opened his mouth and did not speak, Pei Gongcuo asked himself and replied, "I just want my queen to give birth to my eldest son." If you give birth to the eldest son, I will have a reason to crown you as the queen, and in the future, whether it is a successor or a chief, our children will become princes. ”

Hua Mian was speechless at this moment, she was silent for a long time and said: "I'm tired and want to rest, please go back to the emperor." ”

Pei Gongcuo saw that her face was indeed tired, so he said, "I want to stay with you for a while, and I will leave when you fall asleep." ”

Hua Mian didn't force it, lay down from his embrace, closed his eyes for a moment, and then fell into a deep sleep.

Pei Gongcuo stared at her sleeping face for a long time, and finally sighed softly and got up to leave.
