Chapter 107 Old Disease
Qin Feiling seemed to be lost in his own thoughts.
Whenever he thought of Zhou Lingge's panic and unstable look just now, he felt a chill in his heart.
It took him a long time to calm down and suppress his emotions.
He looked at Chang Hui with a cold gaze: "I asked you to take Concubine Yu's pulse two days ago. How did you do it?"
"She's pregnant, didn't you diagnose it?"
A layer of cold sweat broke out on Chang Hui's forehead. He quickly replied with a trembling voice, "The last time I took your pulse, I only found a slight abnormality and could not confirm it. I was afraid that if I said something wrong, it would be a misunderstanding and damage the reputation of the Imperial Concubine, so I kept it to myself for now."
"Perhaps the pulse has become clearer in the past two days. I have just reviewed the pulse report written by Imperial Physician Zhang. Both Concubine Yu and the heir are very healthy. Your Majesty need not worry too much."
Qin Feiling still trusts Chang Hui.
Chang Hui is a smart and cautious person, which is his usual style.
It wasn't that he suspected he had bad intentions.
Qin Feiling raised his hand and rubbed his brow. He said with a heavy heart, "The imperial concubine is in a very bad condition right now."
Chang Hui was stunned and looked at Qin Feiling in confusion.
Qin Feiling looked through the beaded curtain towards the inner hall: "She seems to be frightened and her emotions are very unstable..."
He was extremely frightened by his sudden loss of control of emotions just now.
She seemed to have suddenly fallen into a nightmare.
How could a person be trapped in a nightmare while awake? But the way she had just been was exactly what happened during a nightmare.
Qin Feiling was worried and told Chang Hui everything that had happened to Zhou Lingge.
After hearing this, Chang Hui was stunned.
"This situation... really scared me..."
"And she was quite frightened. Could it be that Concubine Yu had experienced something extremely cruel, desperate, and painful?"
Qin Feiling frowned, "The Queen Mother punished her by making her kneel for half an hour..."
Will you be frightened after kneeling for half an hour?
Qin Feiling was worried and turned to look at Eunuch Liu: "You have been following the Imperial Concubine the entire time. Have the palace servants on the Empress Dowager's side tried to intimidate the Imperial Concubine?"
Eunuch Liu quickly shook his head: "Not at all... Nanny Zhao was quite polite to the Empress throughout."
"Your Majesty only knelt for half an hour."
The more Qin Feiling thought about it, the more suspicious he became: "I only knelt for half an hour, why are you so panicked?"
Chang Hui said cautiously, "Could it be that a past experience has left some psychological scar on Her Majesty? Has Her Majesty's old illness been triggered?"
After hearing this, Qin Feiling's face gradually darkened.
He knew that Zhou Lingge had been having a hard time living in the Zhou family over the years.
As a concubine's daughter born to a singer, how good could her situation be in the Zhou family?
Qin Feiling already had some understanding in his mind.
He ordered Eunuch Liu to secretly investigate Zhou Lingge's past experience in the Zhou family...
He also ordered Chang Hui to be responsible for Zhou Lingge's safety from now on.
Chang Hui suddenly felt a great sense of responsibility, and he dared not refuse or disobey the emperor's order, so he immediately responded respectfully.
Zhou Lingge's mood gradually calmed down.
She lay weakly on the bed, resting with her eyes closed.
Qin Feiling tiptoed to the edge of the bed and carefully held her hand.
Zhou Lingge's eyes trembled and she slowly opened them.
She stared at Qin Feiling in astonishment: "Your Majesty...I didn't mean to be so excited just now..."
"Did it scare you?"
Qin Feiling's eyes were full of heartache, and his fingers gently stroked her cheek: "Don't think too much, the most important thing now is that you take good care of the baby."
"Don't worry, as long as I'm here, no one can take your child away."
Zhou Lingge's eyes flushed red. She propped herself up and sat up, snuggling into Qin Feiling's arms: "Your Majesty, you are so kind to me."
"With your Majesty's words, I am no longer afraid. I am truly delighted to be carrying your Majesty's child... Meeting your Majesty in this life is a blessing I earned in my past life."
Qin Feiling's heart, which had been tense, gradually calmed down.
He held her waist tightly, and his warm big hands gently stroked her flat belly.
"Don't overthink it. You're pregnant now, so don't worry too much, or it will affect the baby."
Zhou Lingge's eyes flickered as he nodded obediently.
Qin Feiling's heart softened.
He continued to soothe her gently, "Don't worry, I'll take care of you."
Zhou Lingge was extremely moved. She choked with sobs and buried her little face in his arms. She clung to his embrace very dependently and refused to let go.
Qin Feiling smiled dotingly and let her hug him.
He looked at Zhou Lingge who was gradually falling asleep in his arms with a very complicated look.
What had she experienced in the past?
He didn't fall asleep that night and stayed awake almost until dawn.
When it was time to go to court... he stood up carefully, bent down and kissed her cheek, then left reluctantly.
Zhou Lingge slept very soundly that night.
It's also strange that every time she sleeps with Qin Feiling, she rarely has nightmares.
That night, Qin Feiling held her tightly in his arms, and she had a rare comfortable and sweet sleep.
Not long after Qin Feiling left, she slowly woke up.
When Qiao'er heard the noise, she hurriedly called Jinxin and the palace maids in to help Zhou Lingge wash and change clothes.
They knelt on the ground happily, their eyes filled with excitement: "Your Majesty, you are now the Imperial Concubine. We are truly honored."
Everyone in Yuanchen Palace was excited and happy.
They all felt that they had followed a good master. In just one month, the Empress was promoted from a concubine to a noble consort. This speed of promotion was unprecedented in the past hundred years of the Great Jin Dynasty.
Zhou Lingge had a smile in her eyes and felt very comfortable.
In fact, she didn't expect that Qin Feiling would use the kneeling punishment to announce on the spot that she would be named Concubine Yu.
She pretended to faint last night, and then she broke down in front of Qin Feiling, her eyes full of fear, which she also pretended... Who knew that while pretending, she unconsciously recalled the things about Xiao'er in her previous life, and she lost control of herself.
All in all, she won a great victory this time.
She successfully conceived an imperial heir and was named the one and only Imperial Concubine Yu, a unique favor from the emperor.
Zhou Lingge asked them to stand up with a smile, and ordered Qiao'er to reward all the palace servants in Yuanchen Palace generously.
Jin Xin and others thanked him happily.
Nowadays, when the people from Yuanchen Palace go out, they are always sought after and flattered. Who among the palace servants does not envy them for working in Yuanchen Palace?
Zhou Lingge had some breakfast when Eunuch Liu came in from outside with a flattering smile.
He was carrying several large boxes on his back.
"These boxes contain jewels, agates...gold, silver...brocade, and rare medicinal herbs. Your Majesty specifically ordered this to be selected and sent to the Imperial Concubine."
