I want to hear the truth

Pregnant!

How is this possible!?

Xiao Ruyue was extremely shocked.

The first thing she did was to look in the direction in which Yuwen He's figure disappeared.

She clearly had drank the soup, so how could she still drink it?!

Xiao Ruyue paused, the disbelief in her eyes was replaced with surprise.

Sister Ya Yin's medical skills were superb, the medicine she concocted were all top-notch. How could there be any problems with a mere bowl of soup?

Unless she did something intentionally.

Xiao Ruyue was shocked by the idea that popped up in her mind.

Would Big Sister Ya Yin do anything to her dodgy soup?

If so, for what?

Thinking about it, Xiao Ruyue was startled, "Lu Yi, help me up."

"Esteemed Empress, don't scare me. I didn't mean to say it on purpose …"

Lu Yi's face was full of regret. Her intestines turned green, and she held a bowl of soup in her hands, unsure whether to let it go or not.

While she was hesitating, Xiao Ruyue had already propped himself up and sat up.

"Empress, what are you doing?" Lu Yi quickly put down the soup and stopped Xiao Ruyue who was about to get off the bed, "Esteemed Empress, Miss Liangqiu has instructed you that you are now in shock and need to rest, you must be bedridden."

Xiao Ruyue persisted in wanting to get up, but her stomach was a little uncomfortable, so she sat back down, "Help me invite Big Sister Ya Yin over."

"But His Majesty ordered me not to let you see Miss Liangqiu for the time being.

"Do you want to go, or should I go by myself?" There was no room for negotiation.

Seeing that she wasn't joking around, Lu Yi braced herself and picked up the bowl of chicken soup, "Drink this bowl of chicken soup and I'll go."

This method of stalling for time was not a brilliant one, and Xiao Ruyue saw through it with a single glance.

She frowned and stretched out her hand. "Bring it here."

Lu Yi handed over the bowl of chicken soup with a bitter expression, as if she was handing over a bowl of sausage poison.

Xiao Ruyue sat on her bed, after blowing the chicken soup into her mouth, he felt bored. After drinking it, he even poured the bowl over without leaving a single drop.

"This way, you can go and find Big Sister Ya Yin, right?"

Lu Yi had a battered look on her face as she imitated the actions of a snail and slowly walked outside.

Seeing Lu Yi's reaction, Xiao Ruyue's suspicions were confirmed once again.

This matter was most likely related to Yuwen He.

Her stomach was abnormally uncomfortable, so she slowly lay back down.

Liangqiu Yayin only came over after a while.

Her expression was tranquil, no different from how it used to be. But there was still a difference.

Because, in normal times, Big Sister Ya Yin would not sit down silently.

Xiao Ruyue understood her too well.

"Big Sister Ya Yin didn't tell me personally that I'm pregnant and it's such a big thing?" Xiao Ruyue lay on the ground and waited for a long time, but before Liangqiu Yayin could say anything, she broke the silence.

Her expression was calm, and there was no hint of happiness or anger in her tone.

Liangqiu Yayin rolled her eyes and said: "I originally planned to let your husband personally tell you about this matter. He didn't have time to speak, did he? "

There was a hint of guilt in his voice.

He would only feel guilty if he did something shameful.

"He seems to be hiding it from me." Xiao Ruyue said indifferently, a slight smile on his lips, as though he did not care.

"…" Liangqiu Yayin fell silent.

After a while, she said, "Yue Er, you've been working hard since you were less than a month pregnant. This child is not in a good condition. We don't want to see you sad. "

"What I want to know is why I'm pregnant." Xiao Ruyue said with an extremely indifferent tone.

Thus, Sister Ya Yin opened her eyes guiltily.

She knew that avoiding important things and changing the topic didn't have any effect on her at all.

"There's no one else here, just the two of us. Sister Ya Yin, I want to hear the truth."

Lu Yi didn't come back with Big Sister Ya Yin. She was probably scolded by Yin Lin after making a mistake. It just so happened that it was easier to speak without a third person around.

"I don't believe Sister Ya Yin would lie to me, do I?"

"I …" When she said this, Liangqiu Yayin was even more at a loss for words.

"If Sister Ya Yin doesn't know what to say, then let me say it." Xiao Ruyue laughed and slowly sat up.

Liangqiu Yayin did not reply, it could be considered as admitting it.

"I guess when Big Sister Ya Yin started cooperating with Yuwen He. From the moment you gave me the Wangyou Powder, or before the Avoidance Soup? "

Liangqiu Yayin did not make a sound, obviously what she said was the truth.

Xiao Ruyue heaved a sigh of relief, "Big Sister Ya Yin, you really know how to hide it well. If I am not pregnant with this child, do you intend to continue hiding it until it becomes impossible to hide it? "

"Nope, I was planning to tell you anyway, but I haven't even said what I wanted to say. Since you can't hide it anymore, I don't want to hide it anymore." In short, I did not mean to hide things from you, but there are some things that I have to hide from you. "

Saying that, Sister Ya Yin could not help but sigh, her heart filled with helplessness.

Xiao Ruyue lowered her eyes, thinking about something unknown.

Liangqiu Yayin was silent for a moment.

After a long time.

"What about the Wangyou Powder?" Xiao Ruyue suddenly blurted out five words, "Since you have tampered with the avoid soup, the Wangyou Powder that you gave me wouldn't be the original Wangyou Powder right?"

Of course not.

Sister Ya Yin nodded silently. After thinking for a moment, she added, "It will probably only have the effect of seven days."

The implication was: I didn't lie to you completely. I just reduced the dosage and the drug's potency.

This meant that Yuwen He's reaction was real, and that was not a lie. However, the medicinal properties disappeared afterwards. He should also slowly recall it.

"What about the child?"

"The child is too young and frightened, so you have to rest and take care of the child." Liangqiu Yayin had already known that she would ask and came prepared.

And wasn't Xiao Ruyue the same, "Big Sister Ya Yin, you know that I'm not asking about this. I want to hear the truth. "

Without waiting for Liangqiu Yayin to speak, she continued, "Actually, even if you didn't say anything, I already knew that it was because I had spent too much energy while taking the examination in Academic Institution for three consecutive days. "You were scared by Qing Qing, weren't you?"

"Yes."

Xiao Ruyue no longer said a word.

She looked quietly at the door and pressed her lips together without saying a word. Her eyes seemed to have no focus, causing people to feel inexplicably worried.

If she were to cause a ruckus, then the ruckus would always have some moments where the anger would dissipate. Instead, it would cause people to be afraid.

Liangqiu Yayin didn't know what to say to her.

After sitting there for a long time, without moving, without even blinking his eyes, Liangqiu Yayin became anxious and immediately pulled her hand, "Yue'er, you … don't scare me, what happened to you?"

"Don't worry, I'm fine." Xiao Ruyue said faintly, his words lacking confidence.

But in the end, she was still a pregnant woman who couldn't change her mood even if she had lost all of her fetal energy. How could Sister Ya Yin not be anxious?

Liangqiu Yayin: "Yue'er, listen to me, I understand my feelings right now. Regardless of whether your husband and I are intentionally hiding it from you, this has already happened. Don't be too angry."

"Your husband has another enormous matter that he hid from you. However, that matter should not be told by me, so I cannot tell you right now. Originally, we wanted to hide the matter of your pregnancy from you. Being able to hide it from you for one day is one day. Since you already knew about it in advance, we'll wait for him to explain it to you. "

"In short, if you want to believe me, I hope that you can do it well. I won't hurt you. "

Liangqiu Yayin earnestly said these words from the bottom of her heart, hoping that Xiao Ruyue would be moved.

But her face was calm and unruffled. Her lips moved, and she slowly said four words: "Yes, I understand."

As long as you understand.

Wait, what do you mean?

Only then did Liangqiu Yayin feel that something was wrong. She looked at Xiao Ruyue from head to toe, on alert.

"What's wrong with you?"

"I want meat." Xiao Ruyue immediately skipped over her question, and pointed to the pot of steaming soup on the table, "I want the hind legs, two dishes."

Liangqiu Yayin was startled, and did not continue the line of questioning. She helped Xiao Ruyue break off two chicken legs and put them in a bowl. She even added half a bowl of soup and handed it over.

Xiao Ruyue was extremely hungry, she gulped down half a bowl of soup, then grabbed the chicken leg with her bare hands and started to eat.

Fortunately, there were no outsiders present. If anyone saw the empress devouring the food, they would have gone mad.

Just as she was enjoying her meal, Yuwen He pushed open the door and entered.

He stood at the door, seemingly hesitating on whether or not he wanted to come in. After standing for a while, he saw Xiao Ruyue wolfing down his food, so he walked over.

"Is the chicken soup to your liking?" Liangqiu Yayin automatically moved aside and sat down on the edge of the bed.

Xiao Ruyue did not bother with her. After gnawing on both chicken legs, she licked her fingers and called out to Liangqiu Yayin: "Sister Ya Yin, can you help me wring a handkerchief over here?"

"Let me do it." Yuwen He called out to her, and walked over to wash the towel and wrung it dry, then brought it over to help Xiao Ruyue wipe her hands.

Her hands were greasy, and he didn't mind if she shook them off. He looked very cautious, afraid that she would shake his hand off.

However, Xiao Ruyue did not.

After Yuwen He helped her wipe her hands, he held her hand and did not let go.

She looked at Yuwen He and asked seriously: "If it wasn't for me getting pregnant and the matter could no longer be kept hidden, how long are you planning to hide it from me?"

"After telling a lie, you have to use more lies to get it back. I wanted to tell you, but I didn't know how. If it were not for this accident, I do not know how long I would have hidden from you all. " Yuwen He chuckled upon hearing this, as if it was as light as the wind.

It was just two simple sentences, yet it weighed a thousand pounds.

"Forget it." Xiao Ruyue sighed, she picked up the bowl and looked at Yuwen He pitifully, "I still want to drink chicken soup."

Uhh …

What was the situation now? Yuwen He could not help but be taken aback.

Liangqiu Yayin was still in disbelief.

"What, you're only allowed to join hands to hide things from me, tricking me into circling around, and not allow me to retaliate? Big Sister Ya Yin, you didn't teach me this in the past, you said before, you have to repay the kindness with your eyes, only then will you not be bullied. "

"You …" Liangqiu Yayin suddenly laughed out loud as her words reached her mouth.

Yuwen He was also overjoyed as he helped her scoop the chicken soup and bring it to her mouth.
