When Lu Jinhuan heard Yizhen's words, she saw him silent and frowning, as if he was as uncomfortable as she was.

She soon thought that Yizhen's younger sister, Concubine Shu, was also like this. She had never even slept with her before. Maybe he, like her, was still worried about this.

Lu Jinhuan felt that he had found an alliance. The two of them were in similar situations, but he was worried about his sister.

It's just that Yizhen has a bad temper and acts in a hot-tempered manner.

Lu Jinhuan felt that she still had to give Yizhen some advice to prevent him from doing the wrong thing impulsively.

"My lord, please don't worry too much. Your Majesty and the Queen have been married for so many years, and it is normal for them to have a baby."

When Yi Zhen heard that Lu Jinhuan said what he wanted to say easily, he turned around to comfort himself.

I felt a little strange for no reason.

He looked at her and asked with confusion and curiosity: "Aren't you sad?"

Lu Jinhuan smiled helplessly, and looked at Yizhen with even more sympathy. He hurriedly comforted: "I am here, so what if it happens, I still have to live my life well."

"Today is a holiday. Master Yizhen, don't worry, be cheerful. Some things should be let nature take its course. Take care of yourself."

After hearing what Lu Jinhuan said, Yi Zhen was shocked. Could it be that she saw his hidden thoughts?

He turned around coldly, "Why should I be worried? It has nothing to do with me."

Lu Jinhuan thought that he did not dare to face him, so he shook his head and said: "Master Yizhen, I know this. I am also the elder sister of the family. As Concubine Shu's brother, you are worried that my sister will not be able to gain a foothold in the palace."

"Now Concubine Shu knows that the Queen is pregnant, but she has to pretend to be happy and congratulate her. It makes her feel uncomfortable to think about it."

"I know you are worried, but we are all in the yard now, and everyone is familiar with you. Master Yizhen, don't force yourself. If you have any sad words, say it, maybe it will feel better."

Only then did Yi Zhen understand what she meant. It was obvious that she was in the most difficult situation now.

As a result, she was still worried about whether she would be sad, so she came to comfort him instead.

Those unspeakable thoughts seemed to turn into an inexplicable emotion. He really felt pity for her difficulty.

Yizhen suddenly realized this inexplicable emotion, and it became clearer instantly.

He was too panicked to admit it, but he saw Lu Jinhuan endure the pain and didn't want to make himself sad, so he comforted him.

Such a beautiful person made him feel a little awkward, and he suddenly felt timid. At this moment, he wanted to admit his heartbeat and feelings.

But he didn't want to let his bare shoulders get noticed.

Yi Zhen could only pretend to be normal and stared at Lu Jinhuan, "You told me not to be sad or worry, aren't you sad yourself?"

Lu Jinhuan was naturally in pain and tangled in her heart, but she couldn't show it in front of Yi Zhen.

He could only curl his lips and said helplessly: "I am just your majesty's shady secret room. Your majesty may have your eldest son now, so you should be happy for your majesty."

Yi Zhen felt that there was a breath in his chest that could not go up or come down. He clenched his fists and asked tentatively: "Do you regret it now, madam?"

"Because you tried all means to stay with His Majesty. Do you regret it now?"

She obviously didn't think so in her heart, but the words she said were so unpleasant, she would definitely feel even more sad.

Lu Jinhuan didn't know what was going on. Anyway, this was how Yi Zhen spoke. She had heard even the worse ones.

She seemed to be forcing a smile, but it was a bit uglier than crying. "Master Yizhen is joking, how can I regret it?"

"It's not easy for women in this world. Isn't even your sister the same as I am?"

"Now I'm not cold or hungry, and I still have people around to take care of me. It's already very good. These are all given to me by Your Majesty. There's nothing to regret."

As soon as Lu Jinhuan finished speaking, he felt that something was not right. Yi Zhen was a dumb kid, like a child. Maybe he didn't understand what she said.

Then she smiled awkwardly at him.

However, Yizhen not only understood it, but even connected the words Lu Jinhuan just said with the previous events, and felt even more sorry for her hardship.

His heart felt like it was being grabbed tightly, being pulled from left to right, and it no longer belonged to him.

Yi Zhen looked at her fragile face, and the comfort he was about to blurt out suddenly swallowed it back in his stomach.

He was just the person the emperor arranged to be by her side to protect her.

How could I have such thoughts about her?

"It's windy and snowy outside. Madam, please go back to the house early and don't freeze."

But Lu Jinhuan didn't want to leave like this. She still wanted to confirm whether the emperor was really so happy that he had forgotten her because he was his father for the first time.

Wouldn't her position in the emperor's heart decline even further from now on?

She hurriedly ran to Yizhen again, blocking his way, "It's inconvenient for Master Yizhen, but I can send you some messages for your Majesty."

Yi Zhen watched Lu Jinhuan clenched his fists, and now he couldn't refuse her request.

"What do you want to say to His Majesty?"

Lu Jinhuan smiled and said bluntly, "Then please tell Your Majesty, Master Yizhen, that I only know about such a happy event. It's just that it's inconvenient for me to be in the house now. Logically, I should prepare gifts and congratulations for the Queen."

"I would like to invite Your Majesty to come to the imperial residence. I will discuss with him how and what to give this gift."

Yi Zhen didn't feel anything was wrong, so he immediately agreed.

After he packed up his things, he entered the palace.

There was actually a feeling of depression in my heart because of Lu Jinhuan's current embarrassing situation.

He wanted to say something for her, but when he was about to reach the Jinluan Palace, he suddenly remembered who he was and who could speak for Lu Jinhuan.

Yi Zhen felt that if he couldn't understand something, he might as well ask Eunuch Zhang and tell him that Lu Jinhuan knew that the queen was pregnant.

Eunuch Zhang was making tea for the emperor in the tea room. When he heard Yi Zhen's words, he was so shocked that his eyes widened.

"How could Master Yi know that the Queen is pregnant?"

Yi Zhen coughed uncomfortably, "That's what Concubine Shu said."

Eunuch Zhang covered his chest and sighed with lingering fear, "Master Yi, you frightened this servant. He thought that he failed to do what His Majesty ordered and actually leaked the fact that the Queen is pregnant."

After hearing what Eunuch Zhang said, Yizhen couldn't help but be a little confused.
