As Qin Yi expected, the empress was so displeased about what happened yesterday. As soon as Yun Shang stepped into the Wei Yang Palace and knelt down to show her respects, the empress said in a lukewarm tone, "I thought you would disobey my order and not come."

It was a serious charge. Yun Shang thought to herself and showed a timid expression, "I dare not."

No sooner had Yun Shang finished speaking than the empress sneered, "You dare not? Is there anything Lady Rui dares not to do? Yesterday when I left the Xiang Zhu Palace, I specifically ordered you to send someone to inform me when you have any result." If I didn't summon you, I'm afraid you wouldn't remember it."

Hearing this, Yun Shang hurriedly said, "Your majesty, please don't be angry. I can explain."

"Well, tell me. I'd like to see what excuses you have." The empress looked at Yun Shang with a sneer.

"When I investigated for a while yesterday, his majesty came to the Xiang Zhu Palace and asked me about it. Then I reported to him. It was near midnight when I left the Xiang Zhu Palace. Thinking that your majesty must have gone to bed, I didn't dare to disturb you, so I left the palace directly. Besides, his majesty said he would tell you when I left. So I thought he had... It's all my fault..." Yun Shang said in a low voice. She even pushed the blame directly to Xia Huanyu. She believed that the empress dared not to question Xia Huanyu and would never think that she dared to lie to her.

The empress felt as if she had punched in cotton. The more she frowned, the more nervous she became. After a long time, she said coldly, "Of course his majesty will tell me. He went to the court early in the morning. Haven't you thought of this? You didn't explain to me what happened. It's your fault. Will you admit your guilt? "

Yun Shang hurriedly said, "I'm to blame."

The empress snorted again. "So what did you find yesterday?"

Yun Shang hurriedly ordered, "I have checked all the things in the room but found nothing unusual. Maybe it's because of her weakness and the cold weather."

The empress's eyes flickered a little. She picked up the teacup by her hand and said coldly, "She should have stayed in the room as she is too weak to walk in the imperial garden. She shouldn't have been so careless since she has a baby."

Yun Shang kept silent. She didn't know whether she meant it or...

If the empress said it on purpose, then there must be a lot of meanings behind her words. There are many new furniture in the room, which was extremely bad for the unborn baby of Lin Youran. If they still put the braziers in the room with the window locked, her unborn baby would be dead in no time.

"Yes. I've told her to have a good rest in the inner hall, and she can go out and walk when her pregnancy is more stable." Yun Shang answered softly.

The empress nodded and said coldly, "Get up. You are pregnant now. If you are seen kneeling here by the Prince Rui, he might blame me."

Yun Shang a

play this role, or how will the play go on?"

Ning Qian nodded, "I know."

After a moment's silence, Ning Qian lowered her voice and said to Yun Shang, "The empress summoned Lady Su to the imperial palace a few days ago. And according to the attendant at the Wei Yang Palace, it seems that the empress wants her to find out some ways for pregnancy." Ning Qian giggled while speaking. "The emperor has conferred several chosen ladies titles. The empress is really worried now."

Yun Shang also laughed. "She must be anxious. Although she is the empress, she only has the crown prince's son. Now the crown prince is already dead. And there will be more and more new concubines in the imperial household. Seeing that some new concubines are pregnant, how can she not be anxious? "

Ning Qian nodded, and drew closer to Yun Shang, "I think it's a chance..."

Yun Shang raised her eyebrows and understood what she meant. Her lips curled up. "Indeed, it's a good chance."

On the way back to her mansion, Yun Shang kept thinking about what Ning Qian had said. When the carriage stopped in front of the mansion, Yun Shang had some plans in her mind. As soon as she entered the mansion, she said to the butler, "I remember that when I was pregnant, I invited many doctors to the mansion to check on me. Several of them are said to be the gynecologist. Ask them to the mansion tomorrow. "

The butler dazed for a moment. "Your highness, are you feeling uncomfortable?"

Yun Shang shook her head with a smile, "Nothing. I just want to ask them something."

Luo Qingyan had already come back. He was reading at the desk. Hearing Yun Shang lift the curtain, he looked at the door and said, "When I came back, I saw no one in the yard. Where have you been?"

Yun Shang couldn't help laughing. "There are clearly several maids outside. How could you say there's no one? Didn't you ask the butler? "

Luo Qingyan curled his lips, "I didn't bother to ask." It seemed that he was a little angry.
