Chapter 1133 - 820: This Pregnancy Is Nearly Due (2)
Although how to entertain guests is someone else’s concern, especially Yu Wenqian’s banquet, she and Yu Wenye couldn’t really be there just for the food and drink. It might consume more effort than going into battle, and just thinking about that strange scene makes her uneasy.However, when evening came and Yu Wenhuai returned, Shang Ruyi asked him, and it was indeed the case.
Shang Ruyi’s brows immediately knitted into a knot.
As she struggled to think, a shadow suddenly flickered before her eyes, and she felt a warm touch pressing against her forehead, gently rubbing it. She looked up and met Yu Wenye’s deep eyes, seeing him with a slight smirk, saying half-jokingly, "You’re worried about something that hasn’t happened yet?"
"..."
"Aren’t I still here?"
Shang Ruyi did relax her brow as he wished, but the gloom in her heart couldn’t be dispelled with just a few words. This time, she had an indescribable ominous premonition more intense than ever.
After a moment of silence, she softly said, "I just feel that ever since Duke Shenwu died, the Crown Prince’s actions have become increasingly unpredictable."
At this, a keen light flickered in Yu Wenye’s eyes too.
He paused for a moment and said, "If you really feel uneasy, then don’t go. No rule or reason is big enough to force a ’unwell’ pregnant woman to go out."
Shang Ruyi glared at him: "I’m not unwell, don’t curse me!"
Yu Wenye also gave her a sideways look and laughed: "Stubborn!"
They exchanged a few words and said no more. When night fell, as before, they went to bed early. Yu Wenye held onto a body that was unexpectedly warmer and almost scorching compared to his own, closed his eyes and went to sleep. Only Shang Ruyi reached out to caress her round and obviously moving belly for a long time, unable to fall asleep.
As the saying goes, words have power, and the next day Shang Ruyi really felt unwell.
At first, when getting up, though she tended to sleep more since becoming pregnant, she was still somewhat disciplined. But that day she slept until late morning. Yu Wenye had finished his sword practice, washed up, and even the Food Bureau had delivered breakfast, but Shang Ruyi lay motionless in bed. Yu Wenye came over, sat by the bed, looked at her for a while, then gently shook her shoulders.
"Ruyi, Ruyi, it’s time to get up."
"...Hmm?"
Shang Ruyi frowned, looking like she was struggling, before slowly opening her eyes. Her once bright and clear eyes were not very clear, with slightly reddened corners. When she looked up at Yu Wenye, her eyes were misty, causing Yu Wenye to catch his breath and immediately remove his hand from her shoulder.
Shang Ruyi’s breath was gentle, and when she spoke, her voice was surprisingly soft: "What are you doing?"
"..."
Yu Wenye caught his breath again and only managed to speak after taking a deep breath: "Still sleeping? It’s so late."
"Hmm?"
Shang Ruyi was still a bit confused, raising her head to look at the window, only to realize it was already late, and immediately tried to sit up. But just as she moved, she felt weak all over and fell back down softly, fortunately caught by Yu Wenye who frowned and said, "Why are you struggling without getting up?"
"I’m not..."
Shang Ruyi reached back and grabbed his arm, expending some effort to barely sit up.
Upon sitting up, she felt even more weak, her limbs powerless, with a blush on her face, looking completely soft as if she might melt like a pool of warm water at any moment.
Yu Wenye held her arm and softly asked, "What’s wrong with you?"
Shang Ruyi shook her head and said nothing.
Since the hot water delivered earlier had cooled down, Chang Wan replaced it with another basin of hot water and brought green salt for her to wash up. Upon entering the inner hall and seeing Shang Ruyi struggling to get up but looking dazed, she hurried over to support her. Feeling her hand, she immediately worriedly said, "Princess, do you have a fever?"
Yu Wenye, hearing this, reached out to feel Shang Ruyi’s forehead.
However, since a pregnant woman’s temperature is naturally higher than usual, Shang Ruyi had been sweaty since becoming pregnant. Touching her skin at this moment, it didn’t feel particularly hot, but her expression and complexion seemed off. Yu Wenye immediately said, "Go fetch Doctor Su."
Upon hearing this, Shang Ruyi quickly said, "No need!"
