~ WHERE DID THE EVIL CREATURE ORIGINATE? ~

Mu Yunyao was stunned for a moment before raising her hand to cover her face as she laughed.

The Snow Fox jumped over, thinking that its master was playing. It hurriedly rushed forward and squeaked as it acted coquettishly.

Mu Yunyao held the Snow Fox in her arms and rubbed it against her cheek. She felt as if countless colorful butterflies were fluttering in her heart, and every time they danced, there would be fragmented rays of light scattering in all directions.

In the Imperial Harem, Imperial Concubine De and Imperial Concubine Yue, who were in the Cuirong Residence, had become a laughingstock because Imperial Concubine Li had purposely spread the word.

At this moment, Imperial Concubine De leaned back in her seat with her eyes closed. The palace maid walked in softly and said carefully, “Madam, Imperial Concubine Yue is here. She’s waiting for you at the door.”

Imperial Concubine De suddenly frowned and opened her eyes, revealing a sharp and cold gaze. “Let her in.”

“Yes.”

Su Yuyi was anxious. Although Imperial Concubine De had repeatedly taught her, she was the only one she could rely on now. Without her family’s help, she could only rely on Imperial Concubine De’s power to keep the child in her womb until she gave birth safely: “Greetings, Imperial Concubine De.”

As soon as Su Yuyi entered, she knelt on the ground first, respectfully bowing to Imperial Concubine De.

Imperial Concubine De lazily raised her hand and scolded the palace maid on the side, “Can’t you see that Imperial Concubine Yue is kneeling on the ground? She is currently pregnant with the Emperor’s heir. What if something happens when she kneels? Will you guys be able to bear it? Hurry up and help people!”

Su Yuyi quickly shook her head: “Madam, because I was greedy at the moment, I made you painstakingly prepare the ingredients for me and even got misunderstood by those people in the Imperial Harem. I feel terrible, so let me kneel here. This way, my heart will feel a little better.”

Heard this, Imperial Concubine De’s anger slightly calmed down. “Alright, get up quickly. Right now, nothing is more important than the child in your womb. The most important thing is to take care of yourself.”

The palace maid quickly went to help Su Yuyi stand and arranged a stool for her to sit on, then the Imperial Concubine De asked, “The Imperial Physician prescribed pregnancy medicine for you. Did you drink it on time?”

“Yes, I drank it all, but I vomited badly.” Su Yuyi’s face turned slightly pale and looked even more beautiful than usual, “Madam, what about Princess Wenxian...?”

“Do you not think it’s embarrassing enough?” Imperial Concubine De suddenly slammed the table and startled Su Yuyi. She closed her eyes and said, “Alright, you can go back now. That flower fruit tea is not something we can drink. It’s not easy to collect all the materials. Even if we spend more effort gathering them, I’m afraid your children will already be born when the material is complete. Princess Wenxian is not someone who will suffer a loss.” She had agreed so readily. It was because she was sure that they wouldn’t be able to gather all the materials in a short time. Her thoughts were deep indeed!

Sensing the impatience in Imperial Concubine De’s words, Su Yuyi could only suppress the unwillingness in her heart. “Yes, I see that Madam’s expression is rather tired and seems exhausted, then I will take my leave first.”

“Yes.” After Su Yuyi left, Imperial Concubine De took a few deep breaths, suppressed her anger, and smiled, “The weather is getting hotter and hotter now. I will send the Emperor a sweet soup to relieve the heat. In addition, prepare some pastries. I want to visit Imperial Concubine Zhen later.”

Imperial Concubine Zhen tried to win her over several times, but she didn’t say anything. Imperial Concubine Li was suppressing her even more now. Still, she didn’t know the gender of the child in Su Yuyi’s stomach, so it was better to join hands with Imperial Concubine De to fight Imperial Concubine Li and wait for Su Yuyi’s child to be born before making any other plans.

“Yes.”

Mu Yunyao spent five days finishing the blueprints for Bu Xian Luo’s renovation and had someone send them out. Seeing the bright sky, she couldn’t help but have the urge to admire the scenery as she called Ta Xue over and held her in her arms. Then she brought the maid and walked towards the small garden.

The attendants of Yuhua Palace carefully led the way. Some dignitaries and nobles played in the imperial garden, but when they saw Mu Yunyao, they quickly bowed and moved far away.

Mu Yunyao found a pavilion, sat down, and looked at the flourishing Western Begonia in the garden. A pink Begonia tree was carefree and unrestrained, blooming like a brocade.

When Ta Xue saw the butterfly, it turned its head and rubbed against Mu Yunyao’s fingers. The light in its eyes with eagerness to try.

Mu Yunyao placed it on the ground and said, “Go play for a while, don’t randomly eat.”

Ta Xue, with a whoosh sound, jumped out. It had been raised extremely well by Mu Yunyao and had grown quite a bit in the past few days. Its snow-white fur didn’t have the slightest hint of color and was extremely smooth. It is shiny and fluffy. It runs extremely fast, like a white horse, and disappears in the blink of an eye.

Mu Yunyao looked at the lotus flowers in the lake and thought about how the lotus pond in Yue Wang’s residence was faring. She could take a look once they left the Palace.

A shout suddenly heard, “Ah, someone, someone come quickly!”

The Snow Fox, holding a butterfly in its mouth, quickly ran over and placed the butterfly on the table in front of Mu Yunyao as if it was a treasure before squeaking.

“Where did this evil creature originate? How dare it disturb Imperial Concubine Yue?!” Two palace maids quickly ran over and saw Mu Yunyao, who was drinking. After looking at her, their expressions abruptly changed, “Princess Wenxian ….”

Mu Yunyao took out a handkerchief and carefully wiped off the Snow Fox’s claws before finally taking it into her arms. She walked around the Begonia tree and looked at Su Yuyi, half sitting on the ground with a maid’s support: “Greeting, Concubine Yue.”

Su Yuyi looked at Mu Yunyao full of hatred, gritted her teeth, and said with a pale face: “Princess Wenxian, I know you hate me, but you can’t order the Snow Fox to harm me. It doesn’t matter to me, but if something happened to the child in my womb...”

Mu Yunyao walked over, and a palace maid at the side hurriedly kneeled at her feet, saying, “Princess, our Madam has been frightened and has severe stomach pain. Someone has already gone to ask for the Imperial Physician, so we can’t move now. Thus, ask the Princess not to get too close.”

“Although it was already the end of May, the land was still cold and humid. If someone were pregnant and sat on the ground for too long, it would be easy for them to get wet and cold. She might not feel anything now, but their fingers, ankles, and knees would become swollen and painful after the delivery. Of course, if the cold and wet air is too strong, I’m afraid that even a child would be affected greatly.” Mu Yunyao slightly smiled as she spoke, with neither a fast nor slow tone.

Su Yuyi’s heart jumped, and she quickly gestured to a palace maid.

The palace maid hastened to speak up. “Madam, there’s a pavilion nearby. Let’s sit inside and wait for the Imperial Physician.”

“Alright.”

Su Yuyi stood up with incredible difficulty with helped the palace maid. She slowly walked to the place where Mu Yunyao had just sat down. Seeing the dead butterfly on the table, she quickly stretched out her hand and covered her chest: “What are these things? Clean them up quickly.”

Just as Mu Yunyao was about to enter the pavilion, the palace maids again stopped her. “Princess Wenxan, our Imperial Concubine Yue, is currently resting in the pavilion. Please wait outside for a moment.”

“How dare you!” Qu Mama, following Mu Yunyao, walked up and slapped the two palace maids blocking their way. Su Yuyi’s breath tightened. Looking at Mu Yunyao, who was getting closer, her heart flashed with panic, “You … What do you want to do?”
