"Unexpectedly, she became pregnant." At the same time, in the Yihuan Palace, Chu Lianruo, who was playing the zither out of boredom, did not have a big reaction. In this deep palace, even with great favor on her side, it was only temporary luxury. Only by having children could one secure their position. This was not just true for Chu Lianruo, but all the women in this deep palace deeply remembered this principle.

  The news of Yu Mengdie's pregnancy had already spread to every corner of the imperial palace in just one day, and Yuan Chengxiang, who knew that his daughter was pregnant, became even more arrogant.

  Upon learning that Yu Mengdie was pregnant, Xu Rong was overjoyed and immediately rewarded her with a series of rare treasures to ensure a safe pregnancy. The consorts from the various palaces also rushed to Die Lian Palace to offer their congratulations, making it even more lively than Qiang Hua Palace for a time.

  And then, she stayed in the Butterfly Lotus Palace for three consecutive days and issued an imperial edict to restore Yu Mengdie's power as the coordinator of the six palaces.

  This came suddenly, and naturally some people were happy and others worried. Shi Yuyin was the most flustered one, having just managed to take back Yu Mengdie's power with great difficulty, only to find herself on an equal footing again because of her pregnancy. She was not convinced, and a sinister plan immediately formed in her mind.

  Chu Lian seemed to be at ease, but Yuan Mengdie was now the focus of everyone's attention with her pregnancy. Shi Yuyin would no longer pay attention to her own affairs, and having power taken away from her was something she couldn't bear. Perhaps, at this moment, Shi Yuyin was already worried sick.

  "Master, why are you so happy that Concubine Butterfly is pregnant?" Si Wei asked with some confusion, seeing Chu Lian's expression over the past few days.

  "She became pregnant, and naturally all the attention in the harem focused on her belly. As for me, this newly promoted little Consort Yu, how could I possibly compare to the weight of the child in her womb? I'm afraid many people are now thinking about how long Yuan Mengdie's child can stay in her belly." Chu Lianruo said with a light smile while studying the various flower teas on the table.

  "What Young Master said is quite right. Who would still have the time to care about our Weihuan Palace's affairs now?" Qingqing walked in, holding a already ground into powder Yilan flower.

  "This jasmine flower is indeed a top-grade sleep aid, my dear. You'd better prepare some, the others in the palace have already gone to the Butterfly Lotus Palace. We can't be left behind, I don't want those idle women gossiping about us." Chu Lianruo said with a smile, her hands already holding out several dried flower petals.

  You smiled and put the Yilan flower powder in a more luxurious enamel box, gently closing the lid and placing it aside.

  "I heard that the flower house has newly arrived with many fox-tail lilies, which can calm the mind and soothe the spirit. It's extremely suitable for pregnant women. Xiao Lianzi, come here and go to the flower house to get a few pots of fox-tail lilies to send to Die Lian Palace. Just say it's the flower house's intention, don't mention that it's from our Yi Huan Palace." After thinking for a moment, Chu Lianruo called out to the little eunuch serving by her side.

  That little eunuch looked very clever, and with just a few words, he knew Chu Lian's thoughts. He nodded softly and quickly walked towards the flower house.

  "Will the young master be going to Chulian Palace soon?" Si Wei asked, seeing that Chulian had begun to tidy up her appearance.

  Chu Lian waved her hand and went to the Butterfly Orchid Palace. It's not time yet, those who are close to Yu Mengdie must be in the Butterfly Orchid Palace right now, chatting and asking about each other's well-being. If she were to go herself, wouldn't that spoil their fun? She didn't think things through like that.

  "Go to the Cold Palace and see how my sister, who used to be so thoughtful, is doing now." Chu Lianruo smiled slightly, her mind recalling the last time she saw Chu Wanruo.

  In the bleak and cold palace, it seemed that even the temperature had dropped a few degrees. Chu Lian subconsciously hugged her arms tightly and stepped into the thick snow.

  In the cold palace, there was only one table with some broken tea cups on it. Apart from that, there was only a large, cold bed and a thin quilt.

  Hearing the noise, Chu Wanruo seemed to have crawled out from under the quilt, opened her eyes, and saw the person in front of her clearly, but was stunned on the bed for a moment.

  "Sister, it's only been a few days since we last met, how did you become so haggard?" Chu Lian asked softly, holding the hand warmer.

  Chu Wanru looked at Chu Lian, her heart filled with resentment. If it weren't for this woman in front of her, she wouldn't have ended up in this cold and desolate Cold Palace. If it weren't for this woman, she would be enjoying the warmth of the imperial court right now, not reduced to this state.

  "I've become like this, all thanks to you, good sister. Why bother coming to see me with false pretenses?" Chu Wanru said, lying back down, the thin quilt covering her body still shaking uncontrollably.

  Although Chu Lianruo hated her, seeing Chu Wanruo in this state still made her feel unbearable. After all, it was because of this body that she was able to enter the palace, and without Chu Wanruo, she wouldn't have caught Xi Rong's attention so quickly.

  "Xiao Lianzi, bring the things you brought to give to Wan Gui Ren. Sister, we are sisters after all, I couldn't just watch you die in this cold palace." Chu Lianruo smiled slightly, and the small eunuch behind her brought over a good quality woven silk quilt and placed it on Chu Wanruo's bed.

  Although Chu Wanruo had a grudge against Chu Lianruo, the weather was too cold, so she simply glared at Chu Lianruo and pulled the quilt over to cover herself.

  Chu Lian couldn't help but laugh, clapping her hands, and Si Wei placed the food box on the somewhat worn-out table, opening the lid. The small cold palace was instantly filled with the aroma of rice and dishes.

  "The food in the cold palace is not only scarce but also cold, these days you have suffered, sister. This meal was made by me in the small kitchen, if you don't mind, please use it. My younger sister shouldn't stay in this cold palace for long, so I'll leave first." After finishing speaking, Chu Lian'er turned around and walked towards the door with a swaying waist, but suddenly stopped again.

  She turned her head and found that Chu Wanru was already standing beside the table, just about to pick up the food, when she heard Chu Lianru's voice.

  "In the depths of the palace, there are traps everywhere. You and I, sisters, may not always be able to meet in this palace, but please still cherish our sisterly bond. Some things are better left unsaid." Chu Lianruo smiled and disappeared at the Cold Palace gate.

  Chu Wanruo looked at Chu Lianruo who had already walked far away, sat in front of the table and started eating the fragrant food with big mouthfuls.

  Although she was impulsive and reckless, she also knew what Chu Lian said meant, wasn't it just to keep her mouth shut, not to reveal her identity? Chu Wanru herself was also clear that although she had entered this cold palace, if she spoke too much, the one who would not let her off easily would be the high-and-mighty emperor.

  All the way back, Chu Lian didn't sit in a sedan chair. Although the snow on the road had been swept away somewhat, it was still slippery in some places. Chu Lian almost fell several times, which made Si Wei and Xiao Lianzi, who were following beside her, worry repeatedly.

  "Young Master, you went to the Cold Palace today, I'm afraid it's just to prevent the noble lady from speaking out of turn." Si Wei whispered in Chu Lian Ruo's ear, the weak and timid young lady in front of him had long since transformed into a deeply cunning and cautious imperial concubine, but Si Wei was more willing to continue accompanying her on this path, no matter how thorny it may be.

  Chu Lian raised her head, the sunlight was a bit dazzling, and she covered her eyes with her hand: "This noon sun is really dazzling, but it's just a fleeting moment of light. When the sunset falls in the west, the light will disperse."

  Si smiled, although she wasn't as clever as Qingqing, but she was also extremely quick-witted. Otherwise, how would Chulianruo bring her along? There were words within words, and the clear sunlight at noon clearly referred to Shi Yu Yin, who was currently in the first palace. However, with Chulianruo now, how much of her radiance could still shine through?

  "The young master said that if you want to do something, you should do it like the morning sun, making people feel comfortable just by looking at it." Si Wei's face had a pure smile on it.

  Chu Lian nodded slightly, seemingly agreeing with Si Wei's words, and slowly walked forward.

  Returning to the Yihuan Palace, perhaps due to the strong wind outside, Chulian only felt her head spinning severely. After drinking some calming tea, she didn't see much effect. She had thought of letting Qing come and take a look, but unfortunately, Qing had gone to the flower house to pick flowers. Seeing this, Simiao let Xiaolian go invite the imperial physician over.

  That young doctor looked quite youthful, although he had seen Chu Lian's enchanting and alluring appearance, his facial expression was exceptionally calm, quietly kneeling in front of her to take her pulse.

  The pulse was not very stable, and the man furrowed his brow. Seeing this, Chu Lian asked softly, "Is my body not looking good? Doctor, please speak freely."

  That person had already withdrawn his hand and still looked calm: "The young master's body is not seriously injured, but the pulse is slightly weak, it should be due to postnatal deficiency. Some tonic products should be used to supplement, and red jujube ginseng soup should be drunk every day, but the young master must remember to drink less, lest he get empty and not receive supplementation."

  Chu Lian nodded slightly, rubbed her temples and said: "You get up and answer me. I ask you, what's your name? There are mostly old people in the Imperial Hospital, it's rare to see someone as young as you."

  Chu Lian still remembered when she was Qin Zhaoxin, her body had always been in poor health. The imperial physicians at the Imperial Hospital came and went, and she knew most of them by face. But this young man in front of her, however, was someone she had never seen before. He must have some special skill, otherwise, at his age, he wouldn't be able to enter the Imperial Hospital.

  "In response to Master Xiao's words, I, Chu Jingxuan, have just entered the Imperial Hospital this month." The man bowed his head and nodded, showing great respect.
