I became a concubine in the palace and cured my master's hidden disease.

Chapter 111: Secret Pregnancy

Green Tea came closer again: "Master, you are a natural businessman. Any store can make a lot of money in your hands. It's just right for me to put my embroidery in your store for consignment and make some money for rouge and powder."

"Am I that good?" Lin Yan put down the embroidery frame completely and looked at her hands which were badly pierced.

"The master's ability in business is obvious to all!" Green Tea continued to praise.

Mother Wei had a headache, staring at Lin Yan's red and swollen fingers. If the prince came back and saw them, he would be so distressed that punishment would be too light. She must discourage Lin Yan from continuing to learn embroidery. "That's right. Although I have only been here for a short time, I have heard the maids below praise you. When you open a shop, I can help you check. Although my embroidery is not very good, my appreciation ability is definitely better than that of ordinary people."

"Master, if you continue to learn, all the professional embroiderers in the palace will be out of work!" Green Tea also joined in.

"Yeah, it seems so!" As the three of them chatted with each other, Lin Yan's idea of ​​becoming an embroiderer began to waver.

So, Lin Yan put down the embroidery in her hands, stood up, and walked to the window to get some fresh air. She looked at the scenery outside the window and thought about what to do in the future.

As soon as I was released this time, I would immediately buy a storefront and open a clothing store. Just like what Wei's mother said, buying some embroiderers' works and being a middleman is much better than sitting there embroidering things every day, almost breaking my neck and almost blinding my eyes, but not embroidering much and not making much money.

After careful consideration, she decided to follow Mother Wei's advice.

Finally, Lin Yan turned around, smiled at Mother Wei, and said, "Mother Wei is right, I'd better find another way. However, I will not give up embroidery. I can practice it when I have free time. It's also a good choice to kill time!"

When Mother Wei saw that Lin Yan finally got the idea, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and was also pleased with her intelligence and decisiveness.

Soaking in hot water in the middle of winter was so comfortable. Lin Yan took off her clothes and sat in the big wooden barrel. The warm water instantly wrapped her whole body, and she couldn't help but sighing with comfort.

The snow melted, the grass sprouted, the breath of spring became stronger and stronger, the temperature was rising day by day, but Zhao Yuan was still nowhere to be seen.

Thinking of Zhao Yuan, Lin Yan couldn't help but feel helpless. Why did she think of him again? Could it be that she had been locked up for too long and her heart was too empty that she actually missed him?

How boring! Lin Yan couldn't help but sigh. Everything was too quiet. Princess Wang and Chen Qingqing didn't come to make trouble. It was really strange. Could it be that they were also locked up in their own yard?

Lin Yan's guess was right. Because Zhao Yuan's disease was contagious, the entire Rui Wang Mansion closed its doors and refused to receive visitors under the pretext of hibernating. In this way, the winter passed and spring came.

Mu Xueli was extremely anxious. Days passed by, but her period was still not coming. She stroked her belly and thought to herself. She originally thought that it was normal to get pregnant after consummating the marriage on the first or fifteenth day of the lunar month. Therefore, she did not take any defensive measures when she was having sex with King Heng.

But who could have expected that Zhao Yuan would suddenly fall ill and hide in the Crescent Moon Courtyard all day long and refuse to come out. Two months later, she actually got pregnant.

This is really terrible! Mu Shirley was extremely worried, but she couldn't tell anyone, so she could only secretly write a letter to King Heng.

After receiving the news, Prince Heng sneaked into Mu Shirley's room under the cover of night.

When Mu Xueli saw King Heng coming, she immediately threw herself into his arms and said in a crying voice: "What should I do? I think I'm pregnant..."

Upon hearing this, Prince Heng was also overjoyed. He hurriedly stroked Mu Xueli's belly and comforted her, "Don't be afraid. Just take care of the baby. I will protect you and your child and ensure that the baby is born safely."

After hearing this, Mu Xueli felt relieved a little, but still said worriedly: "But, I haven't consummated my marriage with Zhao Yuan yet, how can I make up for this lie?"

When Prince Heng heard this, a sly look flashed in his eyes, and he gently comforted him, "Don't worry, Zhao Yuan's illness should have been cured long ago. He is just lazy and doesn't work but still wants to get paid for nothing. You should rest assured and take care of your pregnancy. I will have him go to work soon."

"What if he still doesn't want to consummate the marriage with me?" Mu Xueli frowned, bit her lips lightly, and a trace of worry and uneasiness appeared in her eyes.

There was a hint of helplessness and bitterness in her voice, as if she had experienced countless disappointments.

"It's not a big deal." King Heng patted Mu Xueli's back gently, took out a thumb-sized bottle from his arms and handed it to Mu Xueli, and said, "Just put this in the water and let him drink it, and everything will fall into place."

"What is this?" Mu Xueli looked at the bottle in her hand, feeling a little uneasy.

"Dream Supreme!" King Heng explained with a mysterious smile, his eyes gleaming with excitement. "This drug allows the user to enter a dream and spend a night with someone, and after waking up, they will forget everything."

"It sounds both magical and dangerous." Mu Shirley's heart finally settled down. After two lifetimes, she could finally have a child of her own.

It suddenly rained heavily that night. He was woken up in the middle of the night by the sound of rain hitting banana leaves. When Zhao Yuan was around, he disliked his noise, but when he was not around, he felt lonely and bored.

She simply got up and turned on the remaining oil lamp to make it brighter. She put the lamp aside and climbed onto the bed. Because it was cold in early spring, she curled up with the quilt.

She was tired of playing cards, and she had almost counted every branch and leaf of the flowers, plants and trees in the yard. She had never been so eager for Zhao Yuan to come back.

"Master, when did you wake up? Why didn't you call me to serve you?" said Green Tea.

"I couldn't sleep in the middle of the night so I just got up. There's nothing wrong, so there's no need to call you." Lin Yan said.

It was another boring day. After breakfast, I wrote for half an hour, then read a book for an hour and a half. I felt sleepy and fell asleep in a daze on the couch.

Feeling a little thirsty, Lin Yan called out in a daze: "Green tea, ..."

"You seem to be living a leisurely and comfortable life!" Zhao Yuan's voice came from above his head.

Thirsty Lin Yan opened her eyes and looked at the person in front of her in disbelief: "Could it be that I was confused in my sleep?"

Zhao Yuan leaned over and pressed on Lin Yan, instantly making it hard for her to breathe.

Lin Yan was sure that it was the unlucky Zhao Yuan who had returned. Then she hugged Zhao Yuan tightly. It was also the first time that she took the initiative to hug him. "Your Majesty, you are finally back."

"What do you mean I'm finally back? I've always been in Xianyue Courtyard, okay?" Zhao Yuan corrected, and the weight on Lin Yan was reduced a lot.
