Chapter 396 Provocation (four thousand)
Yan Xiyue didn't say a word.

What happened in the few days when she entered the palace was the last thing she wanted to think about.The emperor treated Yan Xiyue special, she saw it in her eyes and hated it in her heart.

She had put aside her identity once before to compete for favor with Concubine Jin, and she also saw what the emperor meant.

At first she wondered why the emperor was so special to Concubine Jin, but if Concubine Jin was pregnant, everything would make sense.

Although Yan Xiyue didn't show it on the surface, when everyone dispersed, she arranged for someone to investigate.

"Ma'am can you get up?"

Fengyin heard the movement in the house and asked softly outside.

Well.

Li Yu'er blinked her eyes, but there was still some soreness in her eyes, which made her feel uncomfortable.

There was no one around, presumably Yan Xiu went to work after waking up.

She responded, and took a few sips of the tea brought by Fengyin before asking Yan Xiu's whereabouts.

"The emperor went to the imperial study."

When Fengyin helped Li Yu'er up, her gaze swept over Li Yu'er's lower abdomen.

Li Yu'er, who was only wearing her underwear, had a slightly bulging belly at the moment.

It's not very revealing, but it's also noticeable at a glance.

Li Yu'er followed Feng Yin's gaze, and put her hand on her lower abdomen, that wonderful feeling made her face a gentle smile.

She became a mother like this, which is really strange.

Every time she touched her lower abdomen, she always felt an indescribable feeling, which made her feel satisfied and at ease.

Getting up from the bed, Li Yu'er rinsed her mouth, wiped her face and cleaned up.

I applied a little ointment to protect the skin on my cheeks, and then I heard Ziye's voice.

"The news of your empress's pregnancy should not be hidden."

Ziye told the news she had heard.

Li Yu'er raised her eyebrows: "I didn't intend to hide it at first, since they want to investigate, let them investigate, I always want to make this matter public."

It was a great joy for her to conceive a child, but it was not meant to be hidden.

However, there is a saying that it will be released after three months. I am afraid that it will not be stable if it is less than three months.

Both Yan Xiu and the Queen Mother helped her hide it because they valued the child in her womb, for fear of any accidents when the fetus was too small.

Not afraid after three months?

Naturally, I was also afraid, but at that time the fetus was already firmly seated, as long as it was well taken care of, it would not be as dangerous as it was in the first three months.

Feng Yin was still worried at first, but after hearing Li Yu'er say that, she gradually felt relieved.

"Your Majesty," Fengyin thought for a while, "If the imperial concubine is to investigate, what aspects would she start with?"

Is it possible that someone who wants to bribe Yaohua Palace asks?

How about going to the imperial hospital to check on the pulse of the empress?

Li Yu'er chuckled lightly: "Silly girl, you are really a noble concubine without capable people around you."

She stretched out her fingers and tapped Fengyin's eyebrows, and sighed: "There are people around me who keep the inside and outside of Yaohua Palace airtight, and there are naturally such people as the imperial concubine."

"In the eyes of the noble concubine, the Xihe Palace is an airtight existence, but Ziye still knows about it?"

Fengyin felt that something was wrong, but she also felt that what her mother said was very reasonable, and she couldn't find a rebuttal for a while.

"I don't want her anymore. I knew I was pregnant when I found out, but I should be more careful in dealing with things in the future."

Li Yu'er's eyes gradually darkened: "She will not let Ben Gong give birth to a child safely."

Fengyin suddenly became tense.

"Your servant will definitely protect your mother." Ziye knelt on the ground and said solemnly.

"Look at you, you're still nervous, that's what I said."

Li Yu'er smiled lightly to comfort everyone.

Ziye was also helped up by her, and retreated again.

"By the way, what did Xueyin say?" Li Yu'er thought of Chi Gu who had left Qingyuan.

I don't know where he is now.

"Your Majesty, Miss Xueyin has already started the investigation, and the servants here are also cooperating with her. There will be news tomorrow night at the latest." Fengyin said warmly.

Li Yu'er nodded, since tomorrow, then tomorrow is thinking about it.

She still thinks about what to have for dinner.

In the evening, before Li Yu'er had eaten, she heard the news of Yan Xiu's arrival.

Yan Xiu's complexion was very bad.

"Your Majesty, what happened?" Li Yu'er walked over, trying to shake Yan Xiu's hand, but Yan Xiu avoided her.

"Let me wash my hands first."

Yan Xiu explained.

Fengyin hurriedly ordered someone to bring in hot water.

After Yan Xiu washed his hands, he wrapped his warm hands around Li Yu'er's little hands, and explained softly: "There are some rumors outside the palace."

Looking at Shang Yanxiu's eyes, Li Yu'er quickly understood.

These rumors must have something to do with her.

"What is it?" Li Yu'er was very calm and asked with a smile.

She hasn't done anything recently, if she did anything before she came here, she doesn't know.

Yan Xiu sighed: "It's about your pregnancy."

It turned out that just two hours ago, people suddenly appeared outside the palace talking about the pregnancy of the concubine in the palace, and the most talked about was the most beloved concubine Jin.

Why is the imperial concubine the most favored?

Because the concubine Jin was favored during the period of filial piety, and she was pregnant.

In just one or two hours, rumors spread among the people that Yan Xiu was still in the imperial study at that time, and it was only after the officials came to the palace to ask him about this matter that he found out.

He wasn't given time to deal with it at all.

Li Yu'er blinked her eyes: "This is really interesting. When the concubine woke up, Ziye talked about the Xihe Palace. The imperial concubine and the concubine also thought that the concubine was pregnant during Xiaoqi."

It's true that she was favored during the filial piety period, but she was not pregnant during the filial piety period.

She was on medicine during that time, and the date of pregnancy is also very clear, Aoba can't make a wrong diagnosis.

Of course, she was clear in her heart, she had her period just a few days after the filial piety period, how could she be pregnant?
"I have ordered General Li to investigate."

Yan Xiu's eyes slightly narrowed. When he was in Xihe Palace, Jian Yi also told him just now, and he also ordered someone to pass the news to Li Mo.

If it's what Yan Xiyue meant, then I'm afraid it has something to do with the Yan family.

"Is it appropriate to order elder brother to go?" Li Yu'er was slightly surprised.

Even if something is found out, it's not very convincing.

Yan Xiu sighed: "Of course I have considered it."

He was very helpless.

Before the Yanguan came, Li Mo had already sent a letter to Shenquan from someone close to him. As soon as Shenquan finished talking to him, the Yanguan had already entered the palace, what else could he do?
Li Mo has already started to deal with it, he will never be able to call people back.

Li Yuer:  …

Well, it's the eldest brother's temper.

I'm afraid that the elder brother hates the person who spread the news to death, but the elder brother did not enter the palace to ask her, and I don't know what the elder brother is thinking.

Li Yu'er looked down at her stomach, and suddenly laughed.

Yan Xiu was puzzled: "What is Yu'er laughing at?"

Li Yu'er took Yan Xiu's hand and placed it on her lower abdomen, her eyes became crescents with a smile: "Your Majesty, feel for it, this concubine's belly looks like it was conceived during the filial period."

Whose family has such a big belly in less than three months?
I'm afraid that when she makes it public, others will not believe it, and will only believe the words spread by the people in the capital.

Yan Xiu: ...

Not to mention, he can feel it even through the clothes.

"...how about eating less?" Yan Xiu was silent for a long time before he said this.

"Snapped."

Li Yu'er patted Yan Xiu's hand away, and rolled her eyes at him.

"My lord, how can you have such a terrible thought?"

"Don't you know that pregnant women are lucky if they can eat?"

"Do you want to see the concubine unable to eat anything, throwing up whatever she eats, and becoming as thin as a stick?"

Yan Xiu: ...

He just said it casually.

Also, why hasn't he heard that it is a blessing for pregnant women to eat?

Well, it is indeed a blessing, a blessing.

Seeing Li Yu'er's eyes narrowed dangerously, Yan Xiu immediately repeated: "What would Yu'er want to eat? I'll order the dining room to bring it right away."

Li Yu'er laughed: "That's about the same."

She reported six dishes in a row.

Yan Xiu's eyes twitched, but he didn't say anything, and let Shenquan make arrangements.

There is a lot of joy in Yaohua Palace.

All palaces have heard about things outside the palace.

"I believe that Concubine Jin is pregnant, but if it was conceived during the filial period..." Concubine De hesitated: "I don't think it looks like it."

At the end of the filial piety period, the queen mother gave the three of them the right to cooperate in the harem.

When the three of them were working together, Concubine Jin was so busy, she didn't look like she was pregnant at that time, and she vaguely remembered that Concubine Jin was in low spirits for a few days, as if she had her period.

Concubine De frowned as she recalled, and gradually affirmed.

It is indeed menstruation.

Miao Yun'er said softly: "Perhaps, Concubine Jin was pretending at that time?"

Concubine De was slightly taken aback.

"Concubine Jin must know that Xiaoqi is pregnant, so it's a big deal. What if someone can prove that Xiaoqi is not pregnant?" Miao Yun'er lowered her voice: "I don't know if it's menstruation or not, it's just an analysis of her appearance. That's the answer."

"Your Majesty, think about it carefully. A few days ago, the imperial physician asked for a safe pulse from all over the harem. Why was the concubine Jin's pregnancy not made public?"

"The concubine heard that the emperor went to Yaohua Palace early that day."

Concubine De took a deep breath.

yeah, why?The more she thought about it, the more horrified she became. It was late autumn, and the charcoal hadn't started burning in the house, but she was sweating from shock.

"Yun'er, you, don't say any more."

Concubine De lowered her voice to warn: "Whether it's true or not, what you said to me today will rot in your stomach, and you can't tell it to outsiders, do you understand?"

Miao Yun'er also knew the seriousness of the matter, she nodded heavily: "Don't worry, empress, my concubine will definitely not say anything about it."

Concubine De waved her hand, not in the mood to talk to her anymore, and told her to back down.

Miao Yuner Fuli resigned.

She won't tell the matter, she still wants to be favored, like Concubine Jiang Zheng Jieyu, to become the emperor's woman, and to spread branches and leaves for the emperor.

But this is also an opportunity, I don't know if she can use this to make the emperor look at her differently?
The moment Miao Yun'er had this thought in her mind, she tried hard to suppress it.

No, it's still too risky, just wait, wait for the empress' arrangement...

In the Palace of Compassion and Ning, it was the first time that the Empress Dowager lost her temper.

"Who is spreading rumors!" The Empress Dowager blushed angrily, she smashed two tea bowls and was still panting for breath while sitting on the chair, her eyes turned black.

"Empress Dowager, don't get angry, you have to be careful about your body."

Shen Jing stepped forward to persuade the empress dowager distressedly.

The queen mother waved her hand, and she calmed down for a while before she gradually stabilized. She sighed and said: "Poor girl, she is still suffering from these remarks when she is pregnant. If Aijia knows who is spreading rumors behind her back, she will definitely not forgive her!"

Shen Jing sighed inwardly.

Isn't it.

When Concubine Jin became pregnant, the Empress Dowager knew very well, it happened to be in the Palace of Compassion and Peace, or the Empress Dowager discovered an abnormality and ordered Qingye to diagnose it in front of her.

Didn't the Queen Mother not call the Respect Office to check?
The records of Concubine Jin's menstrual events are clear, and what Qingye said is also true. Moreover, after Imperial Physician Zhang checked Concubine Jin's pulse last time, the Empress Dowager also summoned Imperial Physician Zhang to the Palace of Mercy Ning for questioning. On the other hand, it is impossible for unexpected things to happen in Concubine Jin's month.

Concubine Jiang's fake month has already been three months, and Concubine Jin's has only been for more than two months. If it was more than three months earlier, wouldn't it have been made public?
If it was really conceived during Xiaoqi, how many months has it been now?But in front of Concubine Jiang!
Shen Jing whispered: "Not to mention anything else, Concubine Jin's pregnant belly is indeed bigger than Concubine Jiang..."

Queen Mother:  …

Can she not see it?

But Concubine Jiang falsely said that she was pregnant for more than two months. In reality, it was only more than one month. Can it be the same!

And in terms of diet, Concubine Jiang didn't eat well since she was pregnant, and it took Qingye some time to eat some nourishing things with herbal diet, while Concubine Jin's appetite...

Thinking of Concubine Jin's appetite, the Queen Mother finally had a smile on her face.

"It's a blessing to be able to eat, look at Aijia, there is more than one in Concubine Jin's stomach."

Shen Jing thought, isn't it.

She has also served in the palace for most of her life, and she has seen many pregnant women. The current appearance of Concubine Jin looks like she is pregnant with twins.

"Send someone to investigate carefully, the grandson of the Ai family must not have any stains!"

The queen mother straightened her expression, and a stern look appeared in her eyes.

Since someone is playing dirty tricks in front of her, an old woman, don't blame her for doing it!
Li Yu'er didn't know that the queen mother had also made a move. She was facing a table full of delicacies and was wondering which dish to eat first.

The next day, Li Yu'er packed up as usual and went to the Compassion Palace to pay her respects.

On the way, I met many concubines in the harem. After everyone saluted her, they all looked at her stomach intentionally or unconsciously.

Li Yu'er didn't care, and let them look at her openly.

Just look at them, and if you look at them, there is no dragon heir in their stomachs.

A group of people headed towards the Palace of Compassion and Peace, and met Yan Xiyue and others who had just arrived at the gate of the palace and were about to enter.

"My concubine please greet your concubine and empress."

Yingying and swallows all bowed to Yan Xiyue.

Yan Xiyue wore a high bun and gorgeous jewelry today, and even the makeup she painted was exquisite.

With a faint smile on her cherry red lips, she took two steps towards Li Yu'er and helped her up herself.

"Concubine Jin, get rid of the gift, you are honorable now, I don't dare to accept your gift, if it makes you tired, even if I give you this life, I probably can't afford it."

 good night.
