YM778.TV Chapter Volume 16 7 part1 (2)
The Tong Kingdom.
Inside Tong An Courtyard of Qing Li the crown prince of the Tong Kingdom.
“Vomit…” a burst of bad sour acid poured out of the pit of her stomach, Chang Liu can’t help but bend over again, threw up hard.
The maids quickly hold the bronze basin to catch the acid thing, Shi Min anxiously caressed the princess’ back again and again, and asks out, “is the imperial doctor here?”
“Do not worry, maybe i just eat the wrong thing.” Chang Liu spits out the contents of her stomach cleanly and raises her pale face weakly.
“Princess must not careless, this servant think it’s about eating the wrong things.” Shi Min shakes her head with dissatisfaction, while wiping the towel to wipe her sweat carefully, she’s nagging, “it’s not that this servant dare to say that Princess is wrong, but Princess doesn’t care too much of her own, when Princess was lazy to eat things a few days ago, I should’ve gone to an imperial doctor at that time, but the princess said she drank cold water at night, she thought it was troublesome and kept quiet, then vomited once yesterday, she said her stomach was bad but it’s good now and all of a sudden she vomited that her face turned pale… ”
“All right,” Chang Liu smiles bitterly and says, “how long are you going to complain? I have already like this, you still have to teach me.” Her face suddenly froze.
Shi Min knew it was bad, she quickly turns around and shouts, “bring me the bronze basin and clean soft towels…” before she has finished, Chang Liu suddenly bowed down, the slender palm pressed against her chest and painfully vomits all the food she had eaten at noon.
The room smell of sour vomit.
The more Shi Min looks the more it lessen, she secretly suspect, waiting for the maids to clean up and then she orders them all to retreat, she personally holds a cup of warm water to serve Chang Liu mouthwash, quietly lowered her voice, “Princess…”
“Uh?”
“This servant looked at the princess vomiting like this, isn’t this…” Shi Min stops talking.
“Isn’t this what?”
“Isn’t this… pregnant?”
Chang Liu herself also a levy, she glance at Shi Min in surprise, after a long time, with a loneliness in her eyes she smiles bitterly, “how is this possible? Since the fox entered the house, for these three months Qing Li has been with the fox every day. This thing… can i do it alone?” Shi Min thought about it too, she sighs and suddenly there’s sudden surprise in her mind.
“Not necessarily.” She suddenly looks up and looks nervous. “The princess forgot about the last month? After drinking wine, His Highness Qing Li came over in the middle of the night and was so drunk that he could not recognize people. The princess had fallen asleep that night and was taken aback by His Royal Highness Qing Li, that night, didn’t he…”
Chang Liu shows an expression of surprise and uncertainty, but her cheeks flushed slightly, she says with a voice as soft as mosquito, “how could that be? When we were newly married, we spent time a lot of time together, at that time the great king eagerly hoping to have a grandson, Qing Li was warm every night, i was happy for nothing. This time it was just an overnight accident, just… ” her look goes dark, “he only has that Shang Yi in his mind, even if he can take the throne in the future, probably the first thing he did was to abandon this imperial consort. This has become completely different from what it used to be, even if I gave birth to a child for him, I’m afraid this child will suffer in the future”.
Thinking about sad thing, she can’t help but wipe away her tears.
Shi Min knows what she said was also true, such coincidences were too few, not to mention that fox Shang Yi fascinated Qing Li until he lost his mind, what if she’s pregnant?
Shi Min accompanies Chang Liu silently wiping her tears.
Silently weeps for a while, Chang Liu forces a smile, “Don’t cry, it’s hopeless, crying for him is a waste of tears. But the banquet at the palace last night showed me the elegant demeanor and talent of Duke Ming. Sure enough, he is an outstanding figure, and that magnificent insight is not comparable to ordinary officials. The most reassuring thing for me now is that I have formed an alliance with him. That’s right, did he sent someone to contact us?”.
“Not yet.” After all, Shi Min is not an ignorant woman, seeing that the princess is no longer sad, she also reins in her grief, her expression becomes cautious and meticulous, she looks out of the window, when no one was eavesdropping, she replies, “this servant has arranged trusted men at the small gate of the courtyard to wait for Duke Ming’s people at any time”.
“It won’t be found out, right?”
“The princess can rest assured, the Xiao family’s chief in charge of this matter is a very careful person, we have agreed if Duke Ming sent people to send letter, it was only at the small door and my cousin Shi Yue will send it to me. I got the news, i’ll go to Fu He Men, my cousin Shi Yue worked as a counselor at Yong Yin and also visited Tong Ze last year, no one would be suspect him if we reported his name.”
Chang Liu relieves, she nods slowly and sighs, “I hope Duke Ming will contact us soon so that I can report well what matters had happen to Qing Li recently. Oh God, please bless Duke Ming to leave the Tong Kingdom safely and never have an accidents in the Tong Kingdom. Otherwise, not only will it be difficult for the Tong Kingdom royal family, but Rong Tian and Xiao family may not even let go of the innocent Zhao Bei.” With both palms folded, her graceful neck is lifted upwards and her eyes closed, silently begging to heaven. Of all the people, Shi Min knows the hard situation of Chang Liu the best. As the princess of Zhao Bei and Qing Li’s out-of-favor wife, the interests of the Tong Kingdom royal family and the Zhao Bei royal family are deeply linked to her, Once Qing Li does something wrong, she’s bound to be implicated.
But now she has a secret alliance with Qing Li’s enemy Duke Ming, if Qing Li knows, it must also be unforgivable betrayal.
She stands in the most difficult position, the only hope is to successfully alliance with Feng Ming, Foiling Qing Li’s assassination plan, however Qing Li knew that his wife and his enemy had exchanged information.
Such a perfect but flawless ending really needs God’s blessing to appear.
Shi Min comforts her, “Princess rest assured, we have tried our best to save Duke Ming, moreover Prince He Di currently lives in Tong An Courtyard, he’s also an ally of Duke Ming and will definitely help Duke Ming. Besides, His Highness Qing Li is only temporarily confused by that fox, when Duke Ming leaves Tong Ze safely, we will deal with that fox again. In the future, His Highness Qing Li will definitely understand the princess’ painstaking efforts and appreciate the princess for not making a big mistake.”
Chang Liu gently says, “I hope so.”
There’s a noise outside the door. The voice of the maid comes, “Your Highness Imperial Consort, the imperial doctor is here.”
Shi Min is a maid brought by Chang Liu from Zhao Bei, therefore it’s customary to call Chang Liu a princess, but her main identity in the Tong Kingdom is Qing Li’s imperial consort.
“Come in.” When Chang Liu begged to heaven, she put her hands closed on her chest, as the imperial doctor entered the door respectfully and carefully pay respect to her, Chang Liu has covered up the sadness on her face, she elegantly nods and orders him to avoid courtesy, and says, “there’s no big discomfort, just a little lazy to eat, the maids worry about nothing. Just take a look a little to save them from nagging me”.
The imperial doctor nods and answers, “yes, please let me check the imperial consort first.”
The maids take a small pillow for the imperial doctor, they lean together with the imperial doctor to carefully listen to the pulse, the others doesn’t matter, Chang Liu and Shi Min both took this little discomfort seriously because they’ve just mentioned “whether there is pregnancy or not”.
Watching the imperial doctor lock his brow tightly while feeling the pulse, as if he had encountered some big problem, the problem that she didn’t worry about was arose by the way he frowned.
Shi Min holds back for a long time and asks in a low voice. “Imperial doctor, what’s wrong with our princess?”
Imperial doctors doesn’t answer, his expression is concentrated, tilts his head and listens for a while, looking up at Chang Liu and Shi Min who were full of inquiries, he raises his head as if he was certain.
“What is it?”Even Chang Liu can’t help but speak.
“Congratulations to the imperial consort, the imperial consort is pregnant ah.” The imperial doctor exhales, his serious face burst into an excited smile, “Great joy for His Highness Qing Li! Great joy for Imperial Consort! Great joy for the Tong Kingdom!”
Shi Min and Chang Liu can’t help but looking at each other face to face.
Can’t believe they really guessed it.
In such a time of being left out in the cold, she’s unexpectedly pregnant with the Tong Kingdom’s Crown Prince’s flesh and blood.
Don’t know if it’s a surprise or a joy…
The maids around exploded with a burst of surprise and joy.
“The imperial consort is pregnant!”
“Congratulations to the imperial consort! Great joy imperial consort!”
“Hurry up! Send someone to inform His Highness Qing Li about this great news …”
“Yes yes, this servant is on her way!”
Immediately a few maids are assigned and trotting out of the door, dragging their tulle dress.
Qing Li is not in his own room.
After lunch, he seemed a little anxious, so he went to visit the distinguished guests who are currently staying in his house. Unexpectedly, in his own home he was actually blocked by the guards of He Di’s subordinates.
“I’m sorry, Your Highness, but my prince can’t see a visitor at the moment.”“Can’t see a visitor?” Qing Li looks surprised, “Did… Is Prince He Di sick?” Although he was full of malicious towards Feng Ming and He Di’s alliance, however there’s a little sincerity and a concern on his face.
Qing Li, who had a headache started faintly this morning, frowns and asks at the same time. “Was he tired of the court banquet yesterday? I heard that last night Prince He Di was working hard on an official business with that Feng Ming’s… special envoy… Was he… sick… because of that?” Such a few simple words, but he’s strangely speaking intermittently.
Look at the complexion and expression, the person who is unwell should be Qing Li.
Kong Liu who stands in front of him also looked at him in surprise, but soon regained his calm and imprudent face. “Your Highness Qing Li don’t worry, my prince is in good health. It’s just that the prince is currently praying to the God of Sea and needs to rest.”
After a while, it was only then that he said “Oh”, he seemed to be out of state and asks dully “to pray to the God of Sea?”
“This is our sea … oh, The ceremony of praying for God in Dan Lin is very solemn and effective.”
“Prince He Di is…”
“The prince needs to pray for the blessing of the God of Sea for something important, I’m really sorry that he really can’t talk with His Highness Qing Li at the moment. In addition..” Kong Liu says neither humble nor arrogant, “according to the custom of our kingdom, in order to show the sincerity to the gods, during the period of prayer they shouldn’t have sexual intercourse, nor should they eat meat and drink wine. These..” he points to the big wine jar and the newly selected girls of the Tong Kingdom who were dressed up lovely and beautiful, brought by Qing Li, he smiles and says, “I’d better ask Your Highness to take them back first.”
“Oh … …” Qing Li surrounded by three or two attendants, who are standing in the front and look in bewildered. His head terribly aching, like it’s about to crack. It seems that as long as he thinks about something, his ears will be buzzing with pain.
Qing Li looks up at the sun in the sky, the dazzling light makes his eyes burst of chaotic whiteness. Things really didn’t go well today, he frowns bitterly, Shang Yi’s body is fragile, she came back from the banquet and fell ill. He has become accustomed to taking a tranquilizer medicine every day, and now if he does not take it for a day, his head hurts a lot.
He wanted to discuss with He Di earlier to buy the batch of weapons, but the results…
“His Highness is here!”
“We found him.”
The buzzing ear canal mixed with the weary screams of women.
“What’s are you yelling about?” Qing Li stared at the servant’s eyes, turns around and shouts.
Rushing to inform the good news, the maids who were finally found him here suddenly startled, the smiling face turn pale, they flinched for a moment. “His Highness forgive me, the servant is…”
“What is it?” Looking at the face of the maid in front, Qing Li’s face darkened, “Aren’t you Chang Liu’s maids? What are you doing here with nothing to do? It bothers me to see you. What happened to Chang Liu? I knew she wouldn’t be comfortable without giving me any trouble all day, huh.”
The heat up great joy is completely dispelled by a few remarks of the accumulated resentment and impatience.
The maid says timidly, “Your Highness, the imperial consort is pregnant”.
In an instant, there’s a silence in front of the courtyard.
Qing li also spent a moment and ask in disbelief, “Who did you say who is pregnant?”
“The imperial consort…”
Qing Li is stunned, but his eyes change a little. In the past, if he would have taken the pills sent by Shang Yi when he got up early in the morning, he probably wouldn’t have had much reaction. Unfortunately Shang Yi pitifully sick last night and fell asleep just before the morning. Her medicine has always been hidden, even Qing Li didn\'t know where she put it, although he is used to eating it every day, he doesn’t have the heart to wake his beloved beauty.
At this moment, although he had a headache, he was a little more conscious than before.
“Chang Liu … is pregnant?” He whispers, looking out of the courtyard door with uncertain eyes.
The maids thought that he would dote on the new beauty, but the imperial consort is pregnant, no matter how he should also show some joy, after all it’s his own blood. Now looking at his appearance, the maid is like facing the emptiness, whisper to answer carefully, “Yes, Your Highness, imperial consort is not feeling well recently and often vomits, the imperial doctor has looked over, she’s really pregnant and has been confirmed. Congratulations, Your Highness”.
Pregnant?
