Su Ying had never known that pregnancy could be so tiring.
For the first three months, she was practically just eating and sleeping, and after sleeping, eating again.
Xiao Jin could see that she didn’t have much energy, so he rarely mentioned the matters of the Imperial Court to her lest her emotions get affected.
It was only until the fourth month of her pregnancy that Su Ying felt that she had come back to life.
After eating and drinking well for a few months, Su Ying’s face had become much rounder visibly, and the look of hostility between her brows had vanished quite a bit.
It was already summer in the capital city, but the weather wasn’t too hot. Su Ymg would go to the Imperial Garden to bask in the sun after breakfast every day. To quote her, if she continued to stay in the Conjugal Phoenix Palace, she would grow moldy.
In the octagonal pavilion of the artificial lake, Su Ying leaned languidly against the railing and tossed the fish food in her hand into the water. As she watched the fish wriggling their tails and rushing to fight for the food, a faint smile appeared on her face.
“Zhou Qing, how’s our war with the Nan and Jin States?” She knew that Xiao Jin didn’t want her to worry, so he hardly mentioned anything about the court matters to her. However, this battle was two against one, after all. No matter how powerful their side were, they would still suffer quite a lot of losses.
“Your servant heard that there have been successive reports of victory from the front lines. Your Imperial Highness need not worry.”
Zhou Qing’s words were not meant to comfort Su Ying. Previously, their strategy of sending people to sow discord between the Nan and Jin States was effective. Although the two kingdoms had yet to break up their alliance, as the war became more and more intense and both sides suffered more and more losses, the conflict between the two kingdoms intensified.
At first, the Jin State sent troops to the Chu State to divert the domestic tensions to outside avenues. However, if doing so would cause them to suffer heavy losses, would they still be willing to proceed?
Su Ying didn’t comment. After feeding the fish for a while, she felt bored When would this kind of life end?
She could only blame herself for being careless. How did she get pregnant? She had always thought that having two children was enough. She had never thought of having another one.
Su Ying was still feeling melancholic. She realized that after she became pregnant, her personality had become wishy-washy and no longer decisive enough.
“Your Imperial Highness, it’s almost noon and the sun is getting hotter. Why don’t we return to the palace to rest?”
Su Ying handed the small silver tray of fish food to Zhou Qing and slowly stood up. Just as she was about to walk off, the view before her eyes suddenly turned black.
Su Ymg quickly stopped and used her hands to support herself against a stone pillar.
Zhou Qing immediately went forward to support Su Ying.
“Your Imperial Highness, what’s wrong?”
Su Ymg quickly adjusted her breathing in an attempt to suppress the dizziness. However, after about 10 minutes, she opened her eyes and the world was still spinning. Her body was almost leaning against Zhou Qing.
Fortunately, Zhou Qing was also a martial arts practitioner so she was able to support Su Ying firmly and prevent her from falling.
“Help me sit down…” Su Ying said weakly.
Zhou Qing hurriedly helped her to sit down carefully on a stone bench. Su Ymg sat down cross-legged and began to circulate her energy, she only slowly opened her eyes after she felt that the energy in her dantian had circulated one round through her body and forced out the chilliness in her body.
Zhou Qing watched as Su Ying’s face gradually regained its color before asking, -Are you feeling better, Your Imperial Highness?” As she spoke, she stepped forward to help Su Ying to her feet as well as wipe the sweat off her forehead.
Su Ying gave an affirmative murmur. Her eyes had become clear, and her limbs had regained their strength.
“I’m alright now.”
“I got a big fright just now.” Zhou Qing had been by Su Ying’s side for so long, but she had never seen her like this. It would be a lie to say that she wasn’t frightened.
Let me help Your Imperial Highness back to the palace first.”
“Mm-hmm.”
Su Ying was also very curious about the changes in her body. After returning to the Conjugal Phoenix Palace, Zhou Qing sent someone to look for the Imperial Physician.
Su Ying also checked her own pulse.
Judging from her pulse symptoms, there was nothing wrong with her body. After all, she had been eating and sleeping well for the past few months. Her body had gained a lot of weight. What could be wrong with her? The bout of dizziness just now was indeed strange.
Soon, the Imperial Physician rushed over.
Everyone knew that the Emperor loved the Empress like his own eyeball.
Nothing must happen to her.
After the Imperial Physician entered the hall and paid his respects, Zhou Qing led him to Su Ying’s bed.
The Imperial Physician did not even dare to raise his eyes as he stepped forward to take Su Ying’s pulse.
Su Ymg closed her eyes and leaned against the soft pillow. She still appeared a little weak.
After the Imperial Physician carefully checked her pulse, he asked a few questions.
“Judging from the pulse symptoms, Your Imperial Highness is fine There seems to be some stagnation of the Qi, which may be due to long periods of lying down. Now that the fetus has stabilized, Your Imperial Highness can go out and walk around when you are free and get some exercise. But you must take care not to overwork yourself to avoid injuring your phoenix body.” The Imperial Physician’s diagnosis was similar to Su Ying’s. As the fetus was stable, the Imperial Physician did not prescribe any medicine. There were many taboos with regard to pregnant women taking medicine, so it was best not to take any.
After sending off the Imperial Physician, Zhou Qing walked in with some bird’s nest porridge.
“Your Imperial Highness, have some bird’s nest porridge first. Lunch is already being prepared. It will probably take a while.”
Su Ymg leaned back on the bed and ate a few mouthfuls of porridge that Zhou Qing fed her before pushing her hand away. In the past, she would have finished every single drop of the food.
“I want to rest for a while.”
Zhou Qing helped Su Ying lie down on the bed. After Su Ying closed her eyes she drew the curtains and retreated to the side to keep watch over her.
With Su Ying in this state today, Zhou Qing was really worried about leaving her alone.
Soon, the sound of even breathing could be heard from the bed.
Su Ying didn’t know how long she had slept, but when she opened her eyes, her eyes felt dry and uncomfortable.
She moved her body and saw a figure sitting by the bed. It was Xiao Jin. She didn t even know when he had returned.
Su Ying sat up. As soon as she moved, Xiao Jin opened his two eyes and stood up from his chair.
“Yingying, you’re awake!”
Su Ymg looked at Xiao Jin’s anxious expression and was a little puzzled. She only took a nap after waking up in the morning. Was there a need to be so surprised?
“When did you come back? Is it past noon?” She looked at the sky outside the window. Though the sun was high in the sky, she couldn’t tell what time it was.
Xiao Jin sat down beside her, pulled her into his arms, and said gently, “Mm-hmm. It’s just past noon. Are you hungry? I’ll get them to bring lunch in.” Su Ymg found that she was really hungry after hearing what he said She remembered eating a few mouthfuls of bird’s nest porridge before she went to sleep.
Xiao Jin instructed the palace maids to serve the food.
Soon, the palace maids filed in with the dishes.
Xiao Jin carried Su Ying to a chair and sat her down. “If you feel tired, I’ll feed you.”
When Su Ying saw Xiao Jin bringing the food to her mouth, she pushed his hand away. “I’m just pregnant, not crippled. I don’t need you to do this.” Xiao Jin’s dark eyes darted around, but he quickly suppressed the worry in the depths of his eyes. He then scooped a bowl of soup for her.
“Yingying.”
Su Ying raised her head to look at him.
Xiao Jin lowered his eyes nonchalantly and said, “If your pregnancy is too uncomfortable, why don’t we give it up?”
Su Ying froze. She even forgot to swallow the soup in her mouth.
“What?”
Xiao Jin slowly raised his eyes to look at her as he continued, “I’m worried about your health. If this child will harm your body, then we won’t keep him anymore. It is not too late to have another after your body has recovered..”
