Qin Yu: ...
Seeing that Qin Yu had fallen silent, Ming Li looked up, her gaze passing through the window to glance at the sky outside. She spoke to him, "Alright, stop dawdling. Hurry up and get dressed and groomed. We still need to enter the palace to pay respects to the Empress Dowager later."
Dawdling?
Ming Li felt innocent. What did her period have to do with anything?
Qin Yu clutched her stomach and collapsed onto the bed, feeling as though her time was limited.
*Knock, knock, knock*
A series of knocks sounded from outside the door, followed by a middle-aged woman's voice, "Princess Consort, your maids are here by the Prince's command to help you change and wash."
Qin Yu glanced towards the door and spoke with difficulty, squeezing out two words from between her teeth, "Co...me in."
"Yes."
The person outside responded and then raised a hand to push open the door.
A group of maids and matrons entered, carrying various items.
The leading Granny Zhang, whose face was originally full of cheerfulness, instantly turned tense upon seeing the pale person on the bed.
Granny Zhang, her face full of concern, asked, "Princess Consort, what's wrong? Could it be that His Highness the Prince tormented you too much last night?!"
If it continued like this, the Yu Prince's Mansion would likely have a little master next year!
In the past, their Prince was not close to women, which was so ugly to them servants. Who knew that the Prince was just not close to *other* women...
Thinking this,
Granny Zhang was extremely happy, but seeing their Princess Consort's pale face, she became worried again and quickly asked, "Princess Consort, do you need me to call for an imperial physician? Read novels, wash, read."
Qin Yu shook her head, pursing her dry lips. "No need. This Princess... Consort is not dying yet."
