Song Yunqian had been hanging around Imperial Concubine Rou Palace for a lot of time, and would normally eat at Zevi Palace. However, ever since the fight started, he had never stepped into Zevi Palace again.

Wen Yi was already dispirited, this kind of torture was extremely long in the palace. She could only endure it and wait for Chen Yuzhu's death to be revealed.

Lv Ning would pass him some news from time to time, but the news did not make a breakthrough. It only made Wen Yi feel that something was strange, as the Imperial Concubine Rou seemed to be getting closer to him. Or rather, it should be said that Ke Er took the initiative to get closer to the Imperial Concubine Rou.

Imperial Concubine Rou's original body was much better. In addition, with Wen Yi's advice to her to exercise more and balance her diet, she was basically fine. However, today news came, saying that the Piao Xu Palace had invited an imperial physician, saying that Imperial Concubine Rou's health was not good again.

Wen Yi started to be on guard, she personally came to the Floating Thread Palace. As soon as the imperial physician left, the palace smelled of medicine. Wen Yi took a deep breath and smelled the scent of Eiye Sang's parasitic gum. If she was not mistaken, it should be a formula to protect the fetus. Imperial Concubine Rou pregnant?

Just as she went in, Xiao Qing came out to welcome her. She looked at Wen Yi with a complicated expression and said softly: "Dr. Wen, you're here!"

Imperial Concubine Rou, who was lying on the imperial concubine's bed, turned her head when she heard the noise.

Seeing her expression, Wen Yi immediately understood the gist of it, so she forced a smile and said: "Imperial Concubine Rou, I heard that you passed down the imperial doctors, is your body alright?"

Imperial Concubine Rou stood up and gently said: "Thank you for your concern, Dr. Wen, I'm fine!"

She sighed quietly in her heart. Previously, when they were doing well, she had always wanted to get pregnant with his child, but it had been a failure, she did not expect that in just a short month, Imperial Concubine Rou would actually get pregnant with him.

What was it like for other women to conceive and have children for the man they loved? Wen Yi had never thought of this before. Now, she had to forcibly endure this post-traumatic pain. She had to pretend as if nothing had happened and reveal a smile, waiting for someone to congratulate him when she announced the good news.

Wen Yi pulled Imperial Concubine Rou's hand and sat down, then asked: "How long has it been?"

Imperial Concubine Rou was stunned for a moment, and then smiled like a flower, and said: "The imperial physician has just confirmed, and we were pregnant!"

"Congratulations!" Wen Yi spoke unsincerely, and a kind of pain emerged from the bottom of her heart, slowly corroding her already silent heart.

"Thank you!" Imperial Concubine Rou looked at her carefully, "Dr. Wen wouldn't blame me, right?"

Wen Yi laughed, "What do you mean? You are the imperial concubine, it is only right and right for you to give birth to him. How can I blame you? Besides, what right do I have to blame you? "

The Imperial Concubine Rou laughed awkwardly, "It's just that, Dr. Wen and the Emperor are mutual in their love, I feel that I have let you down!"

Wen Yi shook her head, and said bitterly: "No, when I met him, your future was set. I am the unnecessary one!"

Imperial Concubine Rou smiled warmly. There was happiness on her face and joy filled her eyes. A pregnant woman, her future mother, and a blissful wife were all her dreams.

She really couldn't look at her bright smile anymore. Otherwise, she would die from grief.

She hurriedly took her leave. "I remember that I still have some things to do, so I'll be leaving first. Take care of your body so that you can keep your baby safe!"

Imperial Concubine Rou immediately said to Xiao Qing: "Xiao Qing, send Dr. Wen out!"

Xiao Qing answered and said to Wen Yi: "Dr. Wen, take care!"

She sent Wen Yi out of the hall and suddenly extended her hand to pull at her sleeves. Wen Yi turned her head in surprise, seeing the complicated look in Xiao Qing's eyes, as if she had something to say.

Xiao Qing slightly sighed, and said: "Imperial Concubine Rou is actually quite pitiful as well.

Wen Yi stared fixedly at Xiao Qing, and Xiao Qing met her eyes. After a moment of silence, she avoided the gaze somewhat.

Wen Yi was suspicious, and asked: "What do you mean by that? Why is the Imperial Concubine Rou pitiful? "

Xiao Qing said softly. "This servant cannot say much, I just hope that Dr. Wen can take care of Imperial Concubine Rou a little more!"

Not suitable to say more? Just as Wen Yi was about to ask further, she heard the eunuchs outside the palace shout, "The Emperor has arrived!"

Xiao Qing's expression changed and returned to her usual respectful demeanor. She said, "Dr. Wen, take care!"

Wen Yi knew that she was not willing to speak anymore at the moment, and could only ask after, she did not want to face Song Yunqian directly, so she wanted to use the side door to leave, but just as she was thinking about it, familiar footsteps came, a yellow figure entered the front door of the Piao Xu Palace.

Wen Yi bowed her head in blessing: "Greetings, Your Majesty!"

Song Yunqian came over to her side. Seeing that she treated him as an outsider, his expression was indifferent as he said indifferently: "You're here!"

"Yes!" Wen Yi respectfully replied to them in a respectful manner.

"You're leaving now?" Song Yunqian hadn't seen her for a few days, he missed her more than anything, but at this critical moment, he had to calm his heart and treat her.

"Yes!" Wen Yi still did not say a word.

"Un, go on!" Song Yunqian said lightly.

Wen Yi was blessed and walked out of the palace.

Zhong Zheng was outside the hall, when he saw Wen Yi coming out, he shouted: "Dr. Wen!"

Wen Yi was at a loss. When she heard someone call her, she suddenly raised her head and met Zhong Zheng's worried eyes, "Uh, it's Eunuch Zhong!"

Zhong Zheng said worriedly: "Dr. Wen's face does not look good, is he feeling unwell?"

Wen Yi shook her head, "No, it's fine, then, just wait here, I'm leaving!" She didn't want to stay here for long. She just wanted to find a place where she could have a good time and be sad.

Zhong Zheng said: "Dr. Wen does not need to be too worried, everything will come to an end eventually!"

Wen Yi casually nodded her head, and did not delve too deeply into the meaning behind Zhong Zheng's words, and quickly left.

The news of Imperial Concubine Rou's pregnancy completely disrupted Wen Yi's mood. Although Empress Dowager was surprised, she was still very happy. She gave her many gifts and ordered her to protect her womb.

Consort Dowager Ling had also personally sent over the formula for protection of the fetus. After Imperial Physician Shangguan had seen it and confirmed that it was indeed a good formula, she recommended it to Imperial Concubine Rou.

During this time, Ke Er had sought Wen Yi out once, her tone was strange and sarcastic, her words sarcastic and sarcastic. Wen Yi pretended that she could not hear her, said a few words and dismissed her.

Wen Yi did not show any intention of leaving. On the contrary, she started to feel that everything was too abnormal.

The Emperor ordered Zhu Fangyuan to set up a barrier around the Floating Silk Palace to prevent any random person from entering. Zhu Fangyuan naturally listened to him, and furthermore, Zhu Fangyuan began to avoid him. There were several times when Wen Yi ordered people to look for him, but he always said that she had no time, and would come visit Wen Yi another day.

Wen Yi seemed to have been isolated by someone. After Qian Shan left the palace, he had not come back at all, and did not receive any news at all. Wen Yi started to feel that something was amiss. As to what was amiss, even she could not tell. Other people might be fine, but Qian Shan definitely wouldn't leave the palace without news for a few days.

Also, Wen Yi realised that Lv Ning had disappeared as well. Normally, he would appear at Zevi Palace and lead the guards on a patrol before leaving to the Eternal Ming Palace.

Wen Yi knew that something must have happened that she did not know about, and the unease in the bottom of her heart grew even stronger. In the end, she could no longer hold herself back and changed into a new set of clothes to leave the palace.

Wan Niang stopped her, "Mistress, don't go out!"

Looking at Wan Niang's expression, Wen Yi knew that Wan Niang must have known something. She asked anxiously, "What happened? Did something happen to Qian Shan? "

Wan Niang was silent for a moment, then said: "Yes, Lady Qian Shan has already acquired the acne, and now in the Sikong Residence, the Emperor has ordered that Master is not to be informed!"

"Everything is fine, how did we get the acne?" Wen Yi was shocked. She understood that smallpox was an incurable disease in this era and normally, people who had smallpox would be isolated, even doctors would not dare to see it. Smallpox was extinct in the future world of China, and humans had found a way to get rid of it. But here, smallpox was still a fatal disease that caused people to hear about it. Once an incurable disease was associated with infection, it would be even more shocking.

"I don't know. At first, it was just a fever and my throat felt uncomfortable. Later, I hired a doctor to treat it for two days. However, the situation turned out to be even worse." After that, the Lord Sikong entered the palace to request for imperial doctors. The royal doctors confirmed that the acne was real, so the emperor immediately ordered for the news to be sealed, not allowing anyone to know about it. Master should understand that once someone in the capital is discovered by the acne, they must kill the source of infection in the acne and burn the corpse. The Wan Niang asked worriedly.

In other words, once the news of Qian Shan getting smallpox spread, the people of Zevi Palace would either be killed or sent to an isolated island.

In addition, since the Imperial Concubine Rou was pregnant, the Minister would definitely send a letter requesting Wen Yi to be sent to the isolation island for fear of infecting the future prince or the mother.

How could Wen Yi sit still after hearing about Qian Shan's situation? But she also knew that the Wan Niang would definitely not let her go, because no matter who it was, in their heart, smallpox was a terrifying disease. Even if the Wan Niang's heart ached for thousands of mountains, Thousand Mountains had already gotten sick and it was impossible to treat, so she definitely would not let Wen Yi go out, as she was afraid that Wen Yi would be infected.

She retreated back, took a few deep breaths, calmed down, and then asked: "Did Lv Ning go to see her today?"

Wan Niang had a worried look on her face as she said, "He's already back. The people from Sikong Residence won't let him in."

Wen Yi gasped, looking at the situation, it was already very serious. She was extremely anxious. The incubation period of smallpox was around ten days, and the onset of the disease was urgent. Furthermore, the disease was very contagious. It had only been six days since Thousand Mountains had left the palace, and she had already been sick for two days, which meant that she might have already been infected while she was at the palace.

How could there be smallpox in the palace? Impossible, if there was smallpox in the palace, she, the Wan Niang and the people there would all be infected, but right now they still don't have any symptoms.

"Call Lv Ning over here, I want to know everything!" Wen Yi said to the Wan Niang as she fidgeted.

The Wan Niang said with difficulty: Master Lu is currently in the Imperial study, he said that he wants to find the Emperor for a doctor to see Qian Shan. I'm afraid the Emperor isn't going to agree easily, since he has been diagnosed, the Imperial Physician is definitely not going to visit him, everyone is afraid of this disease.

"If Your Majesty orders it, I'm afraid the imperial physician will be unable to disobey, right? Furthermore, as a physician, how can you possibly care so much? " Wen Yi disagreed.

The Wan Niang said helplessly: "The emperor cannot give such an order. Otherwise, if the imperial doctors have complaints and this matter gets leaked, the entire Sikong Residence and even our Zevi Palace will be implicated."

Wen Yi's expression was heavy. She could not just watch Qian Shan die, she had to leave the palace. But at the moment, he couldn't let Wan Niang know her thoughts, so she hid the worry on his face and sighed: "If that's the case, I can only hope that she can endure it!"

The mortality rate of smallpox was very high. Without medicine or a doctor, there was no way to survive. This was something that everyone knew. When the Wan Niang heard Wen Yi's words, she also sighed helplessly and said, "Yes, I can only hope so!"
