”Liu Qi, come over here!” Qi Wan County looked at Liu Qi, who had returned with the doctor, and spoke with a serious expression.

”What's wrong? ”Princess!” Liu Qi slowly walked over and asked the wangfei with a suspicious expression. She had just returned from sending the doctor back, did she do anything wrong? Why was the princess like this?

”Besides the three of us, we can't let a fourth person know about your sister Mei's pregnancy, right? Do you understand? ” Qi Wan said righteously.

”Sister Princess Mei, I understand! Don't worry! I, Liu Qi, swear I won't tell anyone! ” Liu Qi said this and was about to swear, but was stopped by Merlin.

”No need, Sister Liu! Sister believes in you! ”

”Thank you, sister!” Liu Qi said with a face full of smiles.

”Tomorrow, I want to go out and see my cousin. He can help me send a message home, can you see elder sister Qi?” Merlin looked pleadingly at Qi Shu County.

”Of course you can! I'll go with you! ” Qi Dian said with a smile. When Merlin's sister went out by herself, she was still a little worried.

”There are a lot of things in the manor. Big sister Qi is the princess, Merlin doesn't dare to ask for your help. I think I should let Liu Qi accompany me there, right?” Merlin looked at Liu Qi as he spoke, ”I wonder if Little Sister Liu is willing?”

”Yes! Yes! Of course I'm willing! ” When Liu Qi heard that she could leave the mansion again, she really wanted to grow wings like a little bird and quickly flew out of the mansion.

Merlin sneered in his heart. Liu Qi was always easier to deal with than Qi Hui, this little girl was still very simple.

”Alright then!” Liu Qi! You have to promise that you will take good care of your sister Mei, or else you will never leave the house ever again? ” Qi Wan County raised his eyebrows and threatened fiercely.

”I promise! I promise! ” When Liu Qi heard Wang Fei's words, it was clear that they were meant to threaten her. This scared Liu Qi so much that she hurriedly promised Wang Fei, afraid that she wouldn't let her leave home.

”Thank you elder sister Qi!” Merlin pretended to be excited as he said this. It seemed that this woman was much easier to deceive than he had imagined.

”Then little sister should rest well. I'll get Liu Qi to send you dinner later!” While saying this, Qi Wanli helped Merlin gather up the quilts and gently closed the door.

The steward who was hiding in the distance saw the princess leaving and he slowly left as well. It seemed that the woman was sick, but he didn't know what kind of illness she was suffering from.

Merlin tossed and turned on his bed. He had to inform the crown prince of his pregnancy as soon as possible, so that he could prepare himself for it. However, if the crown prince knew that he was pregnant with his flesh and blood, how would he feel in his heart? Would he want the child? No matter what, he had to give birth to this child. Even if the Crown Prince didn't want it, it didn't matter. He was the future emperor. How exalted was his status? Was he just a puppet in his hands? As long as he could give birth to this child safely, he hoped that he would let his family off on behalf of the child.

As he left Merlin's room, he felt a sudden sense of loss. Was he feeling sorry for Merlin, sorry for her? Or do you feel helpless as a woman? In this era, a man could have four concubines, but a woman had to die one at a time. A man could control his own destiny, but a woman could only entrust her fate to a man to follow the will of the heavens. His life was over. He had married a good husband and had made sure that his children would live a peaceful life. Was he unlucky, yet at any moment he could be like Merlin, abandoned by his own husband? Was this the fate of women?

Seeing that Merlin Qi Lang thought of her, she didn't go straight back to the house and instead brought Liu Qi to the familiar lake. As he looked at the sparkling lake surface under the setting sun, he thought of the scene when he had just entered the palace. Those scenes were like a roller coaster, passing through his mind one by one, as if it was yesterday. Even though he was an imperial concubine, who knew what would happen in the future? Would Yu Ling Jing just let him go? Would there be other women who would share her husband with her, as well as that Hong Kou?

When it came to Hong Kou, Qi Wan County felt very strange. He didn't know why he hadn't seen the figure of the prince's confidante, Hong Qiang, ever since Merlin had entered the manor. Perhaps he had been too busy recently and neglected her? Even the pair of eyes watching him seemed to have disappeared.

”Liu Qi!” Qi Xi seemed to have awoken from a dream and seemed to have thought of something, and she quickly called for Liu Qi, the servant girl beside her.

”What's wrong? ”Martial Aunt Wangfei!” Liu Qi had a surprised expression as he asked. This girl deeply remembered her master's instructions. When there was someone else, she called Qi Wan County ”Royal Concubine.” If there was no one else present, she would call Qi Wan County ”Royal Aunt” and ”Royal Aunt”.

”Why haven't I seen Hong Kou in the past few days?” Qi Wanli asked with an indifferent expression.

Uncle-master Wangfei, why did you think of that woman?” Liu Qi rubbed her little head and frowned as she asked with a puzzled expression. She really didn't understand what was going on in her uncle master wangfei's mind. ”That woman was the prince's confidante, the love rival of Martial Aunt Wangfei. It would be better if she wasn't here. Could Martial Aunt Wangfei have taken the wrong medicine and cared about that woman?

”Oh!” I'm just asking! We're all in the same palace, it's just a little strange that we haven't seen each other for a few days! ” Qi Wanli lightly smiled as he spoke.
