The empress dowager did not continue to torture her, or ask her to stay in the Quiet Room, or mention any further incidents regarding the plagiarism.

The imperial physician had come twice, and the needle marks on his fingers were almost indiscernible. Only then did the Zhong Miao Yi be summoned to the empress dowager's chambers.

Zhong Miao Yi didn't want to know why the empress dowager suddenly wanted to see her again.

"May the empress dowager be at ease." Before Zhong Miao Yi could kneel down, someone helped her up.

Before Zhong Miao Yi could figure out what was going on, the empress dowager smiled and said, "Look at your clothes, they're already wrinkled. This one has prepared a new set for you. Someone, bring Princess Miaoyi to change."

Zhong Miao Yi was shocked by the empress dowager's change in expression. She didn't know what she was doing, but when she was pulled into the room to strip, she subconsciously tugged at her clothes.

"What are you trying to do?" Zhong Miao Yi frowned and asked, but he didn't blame her for being too sensitive.

His aunt said softly from the side, "Princess, don't be afraid. We're just changing."

She didn't want to say more, so she put in more effort and quickly took off her old clothes and changed into the one the Empress Mother had prepared for her.

The items in the empress dowager's palace were all very good. The golden lotus leaf dress she was wearing looked like it was made of fine cloth and embroidery.

The Zhong Miao Yi was stunned for a long time. When she was pushed before the empress dowager, she even forgot to thank her.

The empress dowager looked at her for a long time before smiling. "You're a smart child. You should know what to say and what not to say when you leave this place, right?"

Zhong Miao Yi's heart thumped, she suddenly felt like she had grasped onto something important.

Sure enough, the empress dowager continued, "Su Zeyi will come to pick you up later. Meng Qi is going to stay with This Dowager for two more days, you can go back first."

Zhong Miao Yi's hands trembled inaudibly.

Su Zeyi kept his promise and really came to pick her up very quickly.

Zhong Miao Yi had thought that Yue Yang would once again abandon him, and focus only on his power and glory.

However, on the recent few occasions when he didn't abandon her, regardless of whether it was for his heart or for other reasons, Zhong Miao Yi was touched.

The empress dowager was saying these words to her because she was afraid that she would say something to Su Zeyi.

It was Yun Mengqi's fortune to have an empress dowager that protected her so much in favor of Yun Mengqi.

The empress dowager seemed to have underestimated her. In the Zhong Miao Yi's heart, rather than telling Su Zeyi about some things, it would be better to resolve them on his own later.

Seeing that the Zhong Miao Yi was so sensible, the empress dowager didn't worry at all. She pulled her hand, but the Zhong Miao Yi still trembled in pain.

"I'm almost done." Her Majesty, satisfied, looked at her hand and nodded.

On the surface, nothing could be seen, but the pain in his fingers still hadn't dissipated. The imperial physician said that they couldn't use their fingers to do too much exercise in a short period of time, so they had to be maintained, or something might happen to them.

Zhong Miao Yi kept this in her heart. Sooner or later, she would pay back this debt with interest.

"Empress Dowager, Lord Su is already waiting outside the palace." A Little Maid walked in from outside. Zhong Miao Yi immediately recognized that it was the Little Maid that served her alone before she left to speak to the empress dowager.

The empress dowager nodded slightly and said to Zhong Miao Yi, "Go out by yourself. This Dowager's about to have an afternoon nap as well."

Zhong Miao Yi retracted her gaze, and bowed before walking out by herself.

Su Zeyi brought Ban Qiu along, and upon seeing Zhong Miao Yi for the first time, the corner of Su Zeyi's eyes twitched.

Although she was dressed in luxurious clothes and had a smile on her face, Su Zeyi felt that she was not a good person.

What's not good? I can't say.

"Are you all right?" Su Zeyi reached out to hold her hand, but was carefully avoided by Zhong Miao Yi.

She hid her expression for a moment, then explained when she saw Su Zeyi's searching gaze, "It's at the empress dowager's gate."

Su Zeyi did not say much. He looked at the palace and said to the Little Maid at the door, "Thank you, empress dowager. Su Zeyi will take his leave first."

After saying that, he forcefully pulled Zhong Miao Yi's hand and walked forward without turning her head back.

Zhong Miao Yi was pulled really hard by him, and her fingertips were extremely painful, but she still had to desperately grit her teeth and not say anything.

Su Zeyi walked for a long distance before he could finally relax. When he looked at Zhong Miao Yi, his forehead was covered in sweat, and his face was also pale white.

"What happened to you?!" Su Zeyi immediately knew that his senses were right. Zhong Miao Yi had gone to the empress dowager's palace, how could she possibly be unharmed?

Did he have to believe that the empress dowager would eat well and drink well, raise her, and sit together every day to speak amiably?!

He had gone through great pains to obtain the emperor's decree, and was about to go mad from worry for the past few days.

Su Zeyi knew that he was already hopeless, and couldn't calm down any longer when he met with the matters of the Zhong Miao Yi.

Ban Qiu leaned on the window and asked him, "Can't sleep?"

Su Zeyi did not reply.

"You're in love with her?" Ban Qiu was unwilling to let it go, there was even a hint of a disdainful smile in her tone, "What you owe her, is finally going to be repaid."

Now that he thought about it, Su Zeyi had no choice but to admit that there really was a cycle of karma.

From being indifferent to being concerned, he, she, had taken too many detours and mistakes. Everything that happened now was the result of his desire to pay her back.

Even if his mouth did not admit it, Su Zeyi knew that Ban Qiu was right.

He had already fallen in love with the Zhong Miao Yi.

From the moment his emotions were driven by the Zhong Miao Yi and he couldn't look away from her cold face, he should have been on his guard.

Now that she thought about it, even her insistence on snatching her away was laced with jealousy.

He was a Zhong Miao Yi who had been raised for more than ten years! Zhong Miao Yi that he had taught for more than ten years! How could it be snatched away by a little brat that he hadn't known for more than a few months!?

However, such feelings made him uncomfortable. He had never experienced such feelings before, so he was unfamiliar with them. Thus, he did not know how to express them.

Zhong Miao Yi stared straight at him, and said slowly: "Go slowly, I'm dizzy."

Su Zeyi turned around and glanced at Ban Qiu: "Why is she dizzy?"

Ban Qiu walked up with a helpless face. She was in a hurry just now, and now she remembered him again.

He placed his hand on Zhong Miao Yi's wrist, caressed for a while, originally wanted to say there was nothing but a weakness, but very quickly Ban Qiu's face changed.

He seemed to be unsure and looked at Zhong Miao Yi in panic, "That can't be."

This confused Zhong Miao Yi, but Su Zeyi was a little impatient: "What's wrong?! What are you talking about?! Say it! "

Ban Qiu looked at Zhong Miao Yi, then looked at Su Zeyi, frowned and said softly: "I'm not sure, but I need to find a doctor to see, Xiao Yi, you might be pregnant."
