Chapter 1052: Chapter 1050: Who Says You Can’t Ride a Horse in Four Months

Su Yingxue grabbed the spices she usually used and sniffed them, “None of the ingredients in here will harm the child in my belly, it’s alright, it’s just a pregnancy, not as precious as gold.”

“How can it not be precious!” Zhilan was very serious, “You are about to be named empress soon, and if the child in your belly is a boy, he will be the future Crown Prince, and if it’s a girl, she will be the future Eldest Princess. How noble is that! These spices, you must absolutely not touch them anymore, Miss, please do not smell them.”

Zhilan carefully and cautiously placed the spices Su Yingxue was holding aside, far away, to a place out of her reach.

Su Yingxue sighed helplessly, “Who told you all this? What Crown Prince and Eldest Princess.”

She even knew more than her!

“The emperor and the Master said so!” Zhilan said with a playful smile, “You don’t know, but before the emperor left, he spoke with the Master for a good while. All this is what he told the Master. The child in your belly is his most cherished. He actually couldn’t bear to leave you either, but he is entangled with state affairs and cannot stay in the Marquis’s Manor with you.”

“That’s true.” Su Yingxue was still living in the Marquis’s Manor, which was somewhat inappropriate already, but Chu Yihan absolutely could not be as inappropriate as her.

The two of them, one had to remain dignified and serious.

All these heavy responsibilities had fallen on Chu Yihan’s shoulders.

As Su Yingxue soaked in the hot water, she thought of these things and felt even more the need to learn proper decorum from Qin Wan.

Practicing daily at home, she quickly became proficient. After some time, even Su Qingzhi praised her, “Look, you’ve really got the appearance of an empress.”

Su Yingxue curtsied, her hands folded at her sides, revealing a faint smile, “Granddaughter thanks Grandpa for the compliment.”

“Good, stand up, don’t tire the child.”

Su Qingzhi smiled satisfactorily and had Zhilan help her up.

Su Yingxue had just sat down when Su Miaoyan rushed in panting, “Sister Xue, it’s not good! Sister Han is asking you to go to the Thousand-Jiao Pavilion immediately—hurry! You must hurry!”

Seeing Su Yingxue sitting so properly, Su Miaoyan shivered and quickly paid her respects to Su Qing in a proper manner, explaining the situation, “Grandfather, Sister Han sent me back to fetch Sister Xue. There’s some trouble at the Thousand-Jiao Pavilion, and they need Sister Xue’s help.”

“What can’t your Sister Han handle? Yingxue is almost four months into her pregnancy now, let her rest at home. You go find someone else in the residence to help,” Su Qingzhi said, stopping her.

“This matter… only Sister Xue can help,” Su Miaoyan said with an expression of difficulty.

Su Yingxue rose to her feet, “Grandfather, let me go find someone to help Miaoyan.”

Seeing her understanding her duties lately, Su Qingzhi didn’t think much of it and waved her off.

No sooner had they stepped out of the hall than Su Miaoyan became anxious, “Sister Xue, don’t worry about finding someone else! It’s Sister Jinyan, she… wuu wuu wuu!”

Before she could finish, Su Yingxue covered her mouth. While maintaining a dignified posture as she walked, she stared fiercely at Su Miaoyan, “Shut up! Of course, I know it’s Sister Jinyan who’s in trouble. If Sister could let you come back to call for someone, couldn’t it mean that Sister Jinyan is having a premature birth?”

“Mmm mmm mmm!”

Su Miaoyan’s eyes widened, unable to speak, but she still gave Su Yingxue a thumbs up!

Sister, you’re spot on!

Just a moment before, Su Yingxue had been the very picture of dignity, but now, together with Su Miaoyan, she exited from the side door of the Marquis’s Manor, and immediately whistled. Chuxin sprinted out from the stables and stopped before her.

“Sister, can you still ride a horse at four months pregnant?” As soon as Su Miaoyan’s exclamation burst forth, she was scooped up.
