Chapter 133 Relief
The next morning, Yanwan was worried about Yihuan's condition and went to Chengqian Palace to visit her in person.
When she arrived at Chengqian Palace, Yihuan was sitting by the window, staring blankly at the cool autumn scenery in the courtyard.
Xi He was trying to persuade him earnestly, "Master, you haven't eaten or drunk anything since yesterday. What will happen to your health if you continue like this?"
Ren Xihe tried to persuade her, but she remained silent and sat quietly at the head of the table, making Xihe very anxious.
Seeing this, Yan Wan sighed and understood in her heart.
Although she spoke freely, it would take some time for her to truly break free from her obsession of more than ten years.
"Xihe, your master has no appetite. Go and get some lighter dishes. Let me talk to your master."
Xi He nodded and obediently put away her things: "Then I'll trouble Empress Ling Fei."
After Xi He left, Yi Huan looked at the worried look on Yan Wan's face and said with a sense of guilt, "Sis is still pregnant, so I should be the one to accompany you. But now you have come to see me instead. It was my fault yesterday, and I even caused my sister to plead with the Emperor on my behalf. If anything happens to the child in your belly, how will I explain it to you?"
Yesterday, she went to the emperor with the intention of breaking up with him. She just wanted to ask the emperor for an explanation in person. She would accept it even if she was demoted or imprisoned in the cold palace.
It was not until she saw Ruiji and Yanwan running around for her, and Yanwan was even only one month pregnant, that Yihuan felt scared.
She has always been clear-headed, and she finally figured it out after Ruiji persuaded her for a long time last night.
It doesn't matter if she acts willfully, but if she causes trouble for others, including her close friends, she will never feel at peace for the rest of her life.
Yan Wan shook her head and scolded her, "Sister, why blame yourself? We have been friends for nearly ten years. The baby in your belly is only a month old. How can it be compared to our friendship? I don't know what happened, but no matter what, life must go on. Don't be discouraged, sister. We sisters will accompany you in the future. When the baby in your belly comes out, she will call you Empress Shu. Sister, you must hold on..."
Seeing her concerned face, Yihuan felt warm in her heart. She smiled and nodded, "Don't worry, sister. I've figured it out a long time ago. I just want to rest for a few more days. I'm really tired after so many years of pretending to be nice."
Yihuan knew that she had also been taking pregnancy-maintaining medicine for many years, but her pregnancy was not yet stable, so she needed to be more careful. After she gave birth and was safe, she would find a chance to tell him.
She felt that Yan Wan should know about this matter no matter what. As a good friend, she couldn't bear to imprison her in a lie in the name of doing good for her.
She has the right to know all this.
She was in so much pain, and she didn't want Yan Wan to live in lies and experience the same pain as her.
"Then you have to promise me that you will cheer up after a few days of depression. I'm pregnant for the first time and I'm really nervous. I need your help with many things." Yanwan said earnestly with a hint of meaning.
Yan Wan had already made some plans for the future of the child in her belly. Since she couldn't give the child to Yingpin to raise as in her previous life, she might as well give it to Yihuan to raise.
On the one hand, it gives her something to look forward to, and with a child by her side, she can cheer up and continue to live a good life.
Secondly, she is good friends with Yihuan, so she will naturally take good care of her child. She feels at ease leaving the child in the care of Yihuan.
Thirdly, she will give birth to many children in the future, and she will not be able to take care of them all by herself. It would be better to divide the children among the concubines she is on good terms with to raise them, which will help her in managing the six palaces in the future.
She had to work hard to win the emperor's favor, deal with Ruyi's party, assist in managing the six palaces to cultivate her own power, and place her own people everywhere. She really didn't have much energy to raise children.
As soon as the child is born, Princess Hejing will return to the palace, and she will have more things to do.
Seeing her flustered look, Yihuan quickly nodded and said, "Don't worry, I will take good care of myself and support you. You just need to take good care of the baby and don't worry about me anymore..."
Seeing that she agreed, Yan Wan finally felt relieved and stayed to have dinner with her. Seeing that her mood had improved a lot, she went back with peace of mind.
At this time, the pregnant Ruyi also learned from Li Yu about Yihuan's disturbance in the Yangxin Palace.
She had known about the pregnancy medicine for a long time, so she felt very uneasy. Thinking of their original relationship, she wanted to comfort Shu Fei in person.
She was already five months pregnant, so it was inconvenient for her to visit in person, so she had to send Rong Pei to convey the message that she wanted to see her.
Back then, she had concealed the matter of the pregnancy medicine from Yihuan for her own sake. After the Tenth Prince died, she was even more afraid that she would be upset after telling her the truth, so she chose to continue concealing the truth.
Since the Yuanmingyuan Retreat, she had gradually forgotten about this matter, but unexpectedly Shu Fei suddenly discovered something was wrong.
After trying so hard to hide it for more than ten years, the truth eventually came out.
Yihuan saw Rong Pei coming in person to invite her, and thought that the Queen also knew about this.
She originally didn't want to talk about this matter anymore, but considering that the Queen sent someone to invite her personally, she still cheered up and gave her some face.
Although both of them were concerned, Yanxi came to comfort Ruyi in person despite being pregnant, while Ruyi just waved her to see her. The difference between their approaches was immediately apparent.
Yihuan is not stupid and can tell who is sincere to her.
After she sat down in the Yikun Palace, Ruyi looked at her haggard face and asked with concern: "Shu Fei, I heard that you caused a big disturbance in the Yangxin Palace a few days ago. I know you are lonely and miserable, but you should also understand that it is not easy for the emperor. He was helpless back then and did not want to be restricted by the empress dowager too much, so he resorted to this desperate measure..."
Although she wanted to care about her, she subconsciously wanted to protect the emperor and her husband.
In the past, the Empress Dowager often interfered in state affairs, and the Emperor had no choice but to do so. Although she felt distressed and happy, she could also understand the many difficulties the Emperor faced being caught in the middle.
