Chapter 294 She is pregnant
After saying that, Li Siqi picked up the chopsticks and picked up a piece of sweet and sour pork for Xu Yingying, which was originally Xu Yingying's favorite dish.
But just as Xu Yingying was about to put it into her mouth, she couldn't help but drop her chopsticks and retched to the side until her face turned pale from vomiting. Then she sat up weakly.
When the maid serving nearby saw Xu Yingying turn her head, she quickly knelt down beside her with a spittoon in her hand, and handed her a handkerchief and a teacup, waiting to clean Xu Yingying's mouth.
Li Siqi frowned as he looked at Xu Yingying, whose face was extremely pale due to the vomiting. He then looked at the servants around him, who were quick and skillful. Li Siqi narrowed his eyes and said, "It seems that it is time to replace these servants. The princess's condition should not have lasted for a short time. Why didn't anyone tell me?"
Seeing Li Siqi getting angry, the servants knelt down one after another, looked at Xu Yingying and then at Li Siqi, and no one dared to speak.
"What? Are you all mute?" Seeing this, Li Siqi became even angrier. However, no matter how angry he was, he still gently wiped the corners of Xu Yingying's mouth and gently fed her a few sips of tea.
"Aqi, don't blame them. It was me who didn't let them tell you. The government affairs are tense and you have no time to spare since you are in the palace every day. How can I have the nerve to distract you because of this matter? They have done nothing wrong. Let them go first." Xu Yingying's lips were pale. She reached out and grabbed Li Siqi's wrist, leaning weakly on his shoulder.
Li Siqi clenched his hands even tighter, feeling both angry and distressed about Xu Yingying's behavior.
"Let's go back to the room and talk. I feel uncomfortable just looking at these things and can't eat them." Xu Yingying said.
Upon hearing this, Li Siqi picked up Xu Yingying and carried her sideways, strode into the room, and gently placed her on the bed.
"Tell me, how long have you been like this?" Li Siqi looked at Xu Yingying unhappily, but he was more annoyed that she hadn't noticed anything wrong for such a long time.
Having said that, Xu Yingying felt a little guilty. She poked her hand and looked at Li Siqi embarrassedly.
When Li Siqi saw Xu Yingying's expression, he knew that she had hidden a lot of things from him about this matter. "Tell me, I won't scold you."
"I found myself like this not long after I came back from the Western Regions. I felt weak all over and felt like vomiting after eating. It has been almost two months now. But I was afraid that you would worry if you knew, so I kept it a secret from you." Xu Yingying's voice became smaller and smaller, and at the end she looked at Li Siqi secretly.
Li Siqi tried hard to resist the urge to give Xu Yingying a slap, but when he thought of Xu Yingying's condition, an idea suddenly came to his mind, "Someone, go to the palace to ask for the imperial physician!" Li Siqi shouted loudly outside.
Soon, the guards outside responded and hurried out of the house to the palace.
Xu Yingying wanted to stop him, but was so frightened by Li Siqi's eyes that she dared not speak anymore.
"Actually, there's no need to call a royal physician. Have you forgotten? I can do it myself." Xu Yingying muttered softly.
Li Siqi just touched the top of her head and said, "I just asked the imperial physician to confirm one thing."
"What's the matter?" Xu Yingying was a little surprised, but suddenly she thought of something and looked at Li Siqi in disbelief, "You don't suspect that I'm pregnant, do you?"
Li Siqi did not respond, but said calmly: "It's just a guess, don't worry, we'll know when the doctor comes."
The guards at the Regent's Palace were very quick, and within half an hour, the imperial physician was invited into the palace.
"Your humble servant greets His Majesty and Princess." The imperial physician came in and bowed to the two of them first.
"Doctor Wang, there is no need to be so polite. Come and tell the princess what is going on." Li Siqi waved his hand.
"This is Doctor Wang Li from the Imperial Hospital. He has excellent medical skills and is highly trusted by our father." Li Siqi introduced him to Xu Yingying.
Xu Yingying nodded slightly to Wang Li, and Doctor Wang moved very quickly. In just a cup of tea, he took his hand off Xu Yingying's pulse.
"Congratulations, His Majesty, congratulations, Your Majesty, the Princess is pregnant!" Doctor Wang's tone was so excited that even the wrinkles on his face were smiling.
"What?!" This is Xu Yingying.
"What?!" This is Li Siqi.
They both said it in unison, but their reactions were very different. Li Siqi was excited and delighted, while Xu Yingying was in disbelief and surprised, and she didn't look happy at all.
After seeing Wang Li off, Li Siqi sat next to Xu Yingying, with a smile that could not be hidden in the corners of his eyes and eyebrows, "Yingying, we have our own child!"
But in the next second, something wrong happened to Li Siqi. Xu Yingying's reaction was a little strange, and the smile on his face gradually faded.
"Yingying, what's wrong? Are you unhappy?" Li Siqi felt a little uneasy.
Xu Yingying was in a daze just now. When she heard Li Siqi calling her, she suddenly came back to her senses and smiled at Li Siqi reluctantly, "Yes, we have our own child."
"Yingying, don't you want this child?" Li Siqi's face and tone revealed full of worry.
Xu Yingying was silent for a moment and shook her head heavily. "I don't know. I'm not ready yet. There's a little life in my belly now. I'm a little scared... I'm afraid I won't be a good mother. I'm afraid..."
Li Siqi hugged Xu Yingying in his arms distressedly, "Yingying, don't be afraid. If you are not ready yet, then we...don't want this child, okay?"
Even though Li Siqi likes children very much, Xu Yingying is the most important person in his heart right now. For the sake of a child whom he doesn't know when he will meet again, Li Siqi can't force Xu Yingying.
When Xu Yingying heard what Li Siqi said, she was stunned for a moment, and then she began to cry silently in his arms.
Li Siqi felt the wetness on his chest and was a little at a loss. He didn't know what to say. In the end, he just hugged Xu Yingying silently, allowing him to vent his fear in his arms.
Finally, Xu Yingying fell asleep in Li Siqi's arms. Li Siqi carefully laid Xu Yingying flat on the bed, stood in front of the bed for a long time, and then he walked out.
And at the moment the door was closed, Xu Yingying opened her eyes, no longer looking like she was sleeping soundly just now.
She sat up carefully, her hand subconsciously touching her belly which had not yet shown any signs of pregnancy, "Why did you come now? Child, it's not that I don't want you, it's just that you came at a wrong time."
