Late into the night, Shangguan Qian was sitting at the writing table, carefully copying the words, his serious look making it hard for people to bear to disturb him. The red tassel lightly tugged at Cui Zhu's clothes, giving her a look.

"What should we do?"

"Wait."

The red tassel's mouth twitched. Wait? How was this any different from not saying anything at all? She sighed and looked at the man standing straight outside the window. She shrugged her shoulders helplessly as she really didn't have the courage to disturb the princess.

"But Third Prince, where …"

"Honestly." Cui Zhu said indifferently, her clear eyes swept across the man standing in the yard, then she quickly lowered her head.

"What are you two talking about?" Shangguan Qian asked in a flat tone, picking up the piece of paper that had been copied.

"It's the Third Prince. He's been standing in the courtyard for six hours." Hong Ying replied, "It seems quite pitiful."

Shangguan Qian pretended not to hear him, gesturing for Cui Zhu to frame the words, "Really?"

"Princess, is it really good to not see the Third Prince?" After all, living in the Third Prince's Mansion now, wasn't that not giving him face?

A trace of coldness flashed through Shangguan Qian Qian's eyes, and he said in a low voice: "Hong Ying, go call the imperial concubine!"

Although the red tassel couldn't figure out what she meant, she still obediently went. After all, it was not easy for them to guess what their master was thinking even if they were servants.

After half an hour, Senior Servant Bai supported Senior Servant Li into the courtyard. She glanced at Li Fengyi and said in a low voice, "Follow me in!"

Entering the room, a delicate fragrance wafted out. Shangguan Qian wore a light green dress, he was simple and generous, he still did not have much jewelry on him, when he saw the imperial concubine again, he intentionally lowered his head to wipe the tears at the corners of his eyes, looking haggard.

"Esteemed imperial concubine …"

Shangguan Qian bit his lips tightly, his eyes red as he looked pitifully at her, as if she had a million things to say, but he stubbornly held back from saying them.

"Qian'Er, you called me here in the middle of the night. What happened?" The imperial concubine acted as if she didn't know anything and warmly held her hand, sitting on the soft couch at the side.

"Qian'Er …" She sniffed and glanced at Li Fengyi, who was standing at the side, "Qian'Er doesn't know how to talk about this."

"But did Feng Yi make you angry?"

When the imperial concubine saw her expression, she felt a bit of pity. She thought back to when she had lost her favor at the palace. That sour feeling in her heart was something that no one could understand.

At this moment, Shangguan Qian appeared to be like this. On one hand, he was stubbornly supporting his noble demeanor, and on the other hand, he was suffering alone.

Li Fengyi gave her a deep look and said in a low voice, "Qian'Er, just say what you've suffered from. There's no need to hold yourself back."

"Yeah, Qian'Er, just take this place as your own home. What can't you tell your family?" she said, taking her hand.

Shangguan Qian stared at Li Fengyi with a resentful look, biting his lips, "We'll know when the doctor arrives."

"A doctor?" "Are you sick?" she asked nervously.

Shangguan Qian didn't say anything, but just at this moment, the doctor arrived, and behind him was shockingly the mother and daughter of Lady Shen.

Consort Li's pupils contracted, as she instantly understood something. Lady Shen and her daughter had actually told Shangguan Qian about that matter! No wonder Shangguan Qian had such a strange look on his face.

When Li Fengyi saw them, his brows furrowed even more tightly. He had originally planned to call Shen Ruqi out to settle things with her, but he did not expect her to stay by Shangguan Qian's side the whole time, so he decided to look for Shangguan Qian instead.

Thus, he did not have the chance to make a move!

"Greetings to esteemed imperial concubine, the third prince."

"Qian'Er, this is …" she asked with a frown.

Standing at the side, Li Fengyi fiercely glared at Shen Ruoqi with an exceptionally unsightly expression. Could it be that she followed up with Shangguan Qian and explained everything to him?

Damn woman!

"Imperial Concubine, I'll be frank with you. In the afternoon, my maid Shen Ruoqi told me that she was pregnant with the third prince's child …" She looked up at Li Fengyi's pale face and continued, "This is something Qian'Er did not expect. After all, Qian'Er has not married the Third Prince, so Qian'Er shouldn't be involved in this matter, but …"

"There's actually such a thing?" Senior Concubine was also shocked. Earlier, Shen mama had only said that Shen Ruoqi was with the Third Prince. Who would've thought that Shen Ruoqi would be like a pearl that was hidden in a knot?

"Qian'Er didn't believe it either, so she called for the doctor and had him come over to diagnose her."

Shen Ruqi! Is this true? " Imperial Concubine's eyes widened as she asked in a deep voice, "Darned Madam Shen, could it be that the thing that Shen mama hid from us previously was the matter regarding Shen Ruoqi's pregnancy?"

Shen Ruqi was so scared that her whole body trembled. Facing everyone's gaze, her palms started to sweat, but thinking about what Shangguan Qian had said, she could stay by Li Fengyi's side as long as she passed through this hurdle! So she had no choice.

"Yes …" It's true. "

"Bastard!" The imperial concubine slammed the table violently, her sharp eyes fiercely staring at Shen Ruoqi, "How dare you!" tick. Not only has Feng Yi been drawn in, he's also born with a hidden knot. It wouldn't even be an exaggeration to pull him out and chop him down! "

Shangguan Qian Shan raised his brow, the corners of his mouth curled up in a mocking smile. The Consort Li had really cleanly plucked Li Fengyi clean, and directly pushed all the sins onto Shen Ruoqi, but since ancient times, there had been a saying that a single slap of the hand was not enough, could it be that Li Fengyi was forced to do this?

"Esteemed imperial concubine, please don't! Ruoqi only wants to stay by Feng Yi's side and has no other thoughts, please grant her wish." Shen Ruqi was so scared that she kneeled on the ground and cried.

Senior Servant Bai strode forward and ruthlessly slapped Shen Ruoqi, "Is Feng Yi someone you can call out too?"

"Third Prince, I really want to stay by your side. I'm fine with being a maid, as long as you can keep me, I'm fine with anything." Shen Ruqi humbly pulled on the corner of Li Fengyi's clothes and humbly spoke.

Li Fengyi shook her off in disgust and spoke in a deep voice, "Shen Ruoqi's nature is like water, how can I be so sure that she is pregnant with my child?"

"Feng Yi, how can you say something like that? I have no man but you. Don't you believe me? " Shen Ruoqi widened her eyes as she anxiously tried to defend herself. Although she didn't have any so-called children in her stomach, when she heard Li Fengyi say such words, she felt a chill down her spine.

"These stains. You can even say obscene words. It can be seen that you are not a good person at all! " Senior Servant Bai viciously kicked her as she spoke in disdain.

"Imperial Concubine, Ruoqi is speaking the truth. She's only living with the third prince …" Shen mama chimed in.

"You said no, but you didn't?" Li Fengyi said in a deep voice, "Lang Zhong, take my pulse!"

Shen Ruqi walked tremblingly to the doctor's side, her face covered in sweat, looking at Shangguan Qian with her deep eyes, feeling apprehensive.

If it was found out that she wasn't pregnant at all, that she couldn't even have children, how would Li Fengyi deal with her? As he thought of this, his body trembled. His body trembled violently.

Everyone cast their gazes on the doctor, waiting nervously.

The doctor frowned for a long time before he spoke. "Reporting to the imperial concubine, Third Prince, this girl is indeed pregnant for a month."

"What?" The imperial concubine's face grew dark, and she intentionally cast a glance at Shangguan Qian, just in time to see her lower her head and wipe away her tears.

"Feng Yi, send off the doctor. "Get out." The imperial concubine said with a dark expression.

Li Fengyi, of course, understood the meaning behind Consort Li's words and followed behind his husband as they walked out of the courtyard.

The room was silent. No one spoke, as if they all had their own thoughts.

"Qian'Er, Shen Ruoqi is your man. You should be the one to deal with her; no one else is allowed to interfere." The imperial concubine sighed, then tossed the mess to Shangguan Qian.

Shangguan Qian raised his head to look at the person in the center of the room, his small face haggard as he shook his head, "Ruoqi is a maid who grew up with Qian'Er after all. Since Ruoqi is already pregnant, we should stay by the Third Prince's side to keep her warm." "Let's go to bed."

Shen Ruqi's eyes lit up, she had not expected Shangguan Qian had actually said those words. Could it be that she didn't blame her? He attracted Li Fengyi?

The imperial concubine frowned. She hadn't thought that Shangguan Qian would actually choose such a method to solve the problem. However, without a doubt, her method was rather generous and had the demeanor of a matriarch.

"Qian'Er, are you serious?" The imperial concubine held her hand and explained, "Although I believe that Feng Yi was only momentarily muddled, can you really accept, Qian'Er?"

Shangguan Qing sighed, his tears flowing in his eyes as he sobbed, "Ruoqi, are you carrying a child of Feng Zhizi in your womb? No matter how much complaints I have, so what? Can you kill a little life? "

The imperial concubine nodded her head in satisfaction. In the end, she was still a princess, and when she dealt with matters, she had the bearing of a great family. Furthermore, she was so kind.

Instantly, her impression of Shangguan Qian rose, feeling that such a woman was definitely capable of helping Feng Zhizi.

"Qian'Er, I've wronged you."

Shangguan Qian bit his lips, lowering his head, but a strange look flashed in his eyes.

Everyone should be happy about this happy ending, right?

Everyone left, Shen Ruoqi looked at Shangguan Qian happily, "Elder sister Qian, thank you so much, to be able to accommodate me."

Shangguan Qian shui wiped away the tears on his face, saying coldly, "Shen Ruoqi, I've helped you to this point, don't you dare reveal it."

Shen Ruoqi nodded her head, as long as she 'accidentally' caused an accident and let the child go, wouldn't that do?

In any case, she was already a step closer to Li Fengyi, and she believed that with her methods, Li Fengyi would definitely fall in love with him. She, when the time came, she would let Feng Zhizi kick Shangguan Qian'er away, and she would not want any woman to share his power! Especially Shangguan Qian!

A hint of exhaustion appeared on Shangguan Qian's face, a faint smile on his lips. Shen Ruoqi, I hope you like this identity.

Because in the future, things will be even more interesting.
