If you are sick, it is fine if you are doing it on purpose. If you are sick, it is unavoidable that you will be late. The empress has to punish you, and you should also ask about the cause and effect.

Zhou Lean pursed his lips and forced a smile, ”Actually, the reason I invited my sister here today was not to complain. Only my sister knew that the empress was pregnant, and I did not want to fall behind either. I also do not trust the imperial physicians at the palace, and wanted to ask my sister to help me obtain a prescription to treat my body from Dr Zhu.”

Zhou Leping helplessly and lovingly nodded her head, ”You, are just too kind, and the prescription is not a problem, but you must remember, in the future you must not let yourself be wronged. If you encounter such a situation again, you must fight for it.

Zhou Lean pounced into her embrace, aggrieved, ”My sister, you're so nice.”

There was nothing that remained unchanged in this world. The emperor was a talent show in three years, and the beauties in front of him were unable to catch up. If he got tired of this, he would immediately get another one, and there would never be a shortage of new ones.

Even if the empress wasn't new, she was still a empress. With her status and position, even without the favor of the emperor, she was still better off than other women.

However, the others were different. As the saying goes, flowers bloom after a hundred days. The Emperor's favor had a time limit. Once that deadline was passed, the woman's fate in the palace could be imagined.

This was also what Zhou Leping didn't want Zhou Lean to be afraid of when he first entered the palace.

She didn't want Zhao Shiqian to forget about him so quickly, even if it was just for the sake of his Zhou Family.

It was inconvenient to disturb the banquet at the emperor's house at noon, and it was even more inconvenient to say what Le An had not told him. This matter was also not suitable for her to say in front of the emperor.

There were so many women in the palace. Could it be that every single one of them had been wronged and wanted their family to complain to the Emperor?

She calmed down and went back to ask for a prescription from Zhu Guanliang. At the same time, she also discussed with Zhou Leqi to have someone prepare a wedding present to celebrate the empress's pregnancy.

Zhu Guanliang saw that she was absent-minded and lost in thought. It must be because she was pregnant, so she did not hide her emotions, could it be that she looked the same in front of the Emperor and the other ministers?

”The prescription is very compatible. I've examined your noble's pulse before, and your body is fine. As long as you take good care of it, you will soon have an heir.”

She stood by the window with her hands behind her back, looking up at the sky, murmuring, ”It's good that she also has a child. That way, she can be considered to have someone to rely on in the palace.”

It was unknown if she was sad for her or sad for Zhou Lean.

The imperial physician in the palace might have been bribed by the empress to harm her, but it was impossible for every single one of them to be people of the empress. Zhou Lean had asked Zhou Leping for an explanation for this reason, and the reason was likely to be understood only by Zhu Guanliang, who had interacted with him once before.

He wrote a prescription for Zhou Lean, and every recipe was a good way to heal his body. He even specifically wrote out how to take them, the taboo, and the possible consequences of not taking them properly.

Reading the entire book, there was no problem, but with Zhou Lean's intelligence, he would definitely be able to understand the meaning behind it.

Zhou Leping was apprehensive for an entire night, and then he went to the palace to deliver his gift the next day.

They first went to visit the empress. The two of them had been sisters for a period of time, so they couldn't afford to slight her.

When Zhou Leping went over, Qiu Rong was walking in the courtyard with Jing Bai supporting her. She was holding her stomach for what seemed like a month, to the point where she didn't even remember it, but was holding her stomach as she walked out. She looked like she was already seven or eight months pregnant.

Qiu Rong turned his head and smiled towards her, inviting her to sit down, ”You're here, why didn't you send someone to inform me earlier?”

”I should have come yesterday to congratulate you, but after hearing that it was a family banquet, I did not dare to disturb you, so I came today to visit Empress.”
