Chapter 588 Heartwarming and Joyful?
Mu Xin Nuan stood there for a while, and soon Rong Yue came over with a tray, all smiles.
"Miss, these are gifts from the people on the estate down below, a tribute to you and the Prince. These are freshly harvested melons; please try them."
Mu Xin Nuan took a look and saw that the outer skin was green of varying shades. Because Rong Yue had dug out the seeds and cut it into several small pieces, the top layer looked yellow and moist.
As Mu Xin Nuan gently closed her eyes again, she felt a sweet fragrance instantly enter her nostrils.
He reached out and picked up a piece, took a small bite, and nodded, "It's very sweet."
"Your Highness, should we also send some to the Prince and the other officials?" Chunyu looked down into the shade of the tree.
"Yes, send some over."
"Yes, princess."
Mu Xin Nuan ate three small pieces in a row, and felt a sweet sensation in her throat. If she wasn't worried about getting an upset stomach, she would have liked to eat a few more pieces.
Rongyue accompanied her as they walked around the courtyard. Although the lotus flowers in the pond had not yet bloomed, the lush green lotus leaves looked quite refreshing at the moment.
After walking for a while, Mu Xin Nuan sat down on a corridor.
After admiring the scenery for a while, I suddenly felt some discomfort in my chest.
At first, I just felt a little stuffy, and then I felt like vomiting.
Mu Xin Nuan barely managed to suppress the feeling and got up to walk back. However, after only two steps, she couldn't hold back any longer and quickly swayed to one side. Before long, she vomited up all the melons she had just eaten.
This really terrified them all.
They had served the princess for so long and had never seen her look like this before. Her face was sallow, and even the way she looked at people seemed different.
Chunyu was the fastest, and she ran straight outside.
Rongyue and Muhua helped Mu Xinnuan up, while Mu Qing hurriedly went to call the family physician.
Mu Xin Nuan vomited everything out and cleaned her mouth, and felt much better now.
After sitting and resting for a while, I felt fine and got up to continue walking towards the dormitory.
Rongyue looked at her with some concern. "Miss, why don't you rest a little longer? The physician will come and take your pulse soon. If you move around again, you'll be the one who suffers."
Mu Xin Nuan shook her head, "No, I feel much better now. Maybe I ate too fast and too much. Now that I've thrown up, my stomach feels much better. I'm fine."
Seeing that she couldn't persuade her otherwise, Rong Yue could only help her continue walking.
Just as they descended the steps and were about to ascend the bluestone path, they saw the prince hurrying over.
"What's wrong? Chunyu told me you weren't feeling well? Why are you walking around? Where's the imperial physician? Has he been summoned?"
"Your Highness, Mu Qing has gone to fetch her."
Seeing his anxious look, Mu Xin Nuan chuckled, "I'm fine." As she spoke, she gestured for Rong Yue and Mu Hua to let go of her hands, and then she gently spun around, "See? Aren't I perfectly fine? Don't listen to Chun Yu's scaremongering."
Chunyu, who was following behind the prince, twitched her lips. Was being a servant too difficult? Was it wrong to care about her master?
Seeing that she only looked a little pale, but her voice and tone seemed fine, Duanmu Chuze breathed a sigh of relief. "Even if you're alright, didn't you vomit quite a bit just now? How can you be so nonchalant? Could it be that the stuff wasn't clean?"
As he spoke, Duanmu Chuze's expression immediately turned serious. "Chunyu, have someone test them immediately to see if anyone has used any chemicals on them, or if any poison has been applied to the outside."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Upon hearing this, Mu Xin Nuan knew that Duanmu Chu Ze had overestimated the situation.
"Aze, I'm really fine. I'm standing here perfectly fine now," Mu Xin Nuan said, stepping forward to tug at his sleeve. "Why are you making such a fuss? I'm fine. I just had a craving and ate a bit too much melon. I'll be more careful next time. Don't be angry."
Duanmu Chuze looked at her with some disbelief. Seeing that her eyes and brows were clear and there were indeed no signs of poisoning, he sighed and said coldly, "You really are a worry."
Mu Xin Nuan stuck out her tongue at him, smiled a little embarrassedly, and then walked past him quickly. "I just can't keep you from making things easy. If you regret it, I'll just go back to the capital alone."
Duanmu Chuze quickly caught up, but before he could speak, he noticed that the figure in front of him seemed to be acting strangely.
Panicked, Mu Xin Nuan rushed forward, her body swaying and going limp as she fell into Duanmu Chu Ze's arms.
When Duanmu Chuze saw that she was unconscious, he immediately became anxious and shouted, "Imperial Physician! Quickly summon the Imperial Physician!"
Mr. Liu and the others, who were waiting outside, were puzzled as to what was wrong with the prince. Why did the prince change his expression and hurriedly enter the inner courtyard after a maid whispered a few words?
Hearing the prince's urgent shouts, it seemed that someone was ill.
Mr. Liu and the others exchanged glances. The only person who could make the prince so anxious was the princess.
Half an hour later, Mu Xin Nuan finally woke up.
As soon as she opened her eyes, she saw Duanmu Chuze sitting on the edge of the bed, looking at her with a complicated expression.
His expression was complex because Mu Xin Nuan saw a mixture of joy and worry on his face. She couldn't quite tell what he was really feeling.
"Aze."
Upon hearing her voice, Duanmu Chuze immediately looked down at her, then slowly helped her sit up, placing a cushion behind her.
"Wait a minute. You silly girl, you're so careless. Do you know how scared you scared me today?"
Mu Xin Nuan frowned slightly, thinking that she seemed to have said something to him in the courtyard, and then as she walked, she felt her body become weak.
"Aze, what's wrong with me?"
"You're fine. It's just that the imperial physician just took your pulse and said you're pregnant. The reason you were vomiting so badly before was because of this pregnancy."
Mu Xin Nuan was so shocked by his words that she didn't react for a long time. It wasn't until Duanmu Chu Ze waved his hand in front of her that she opened her mouth slightly and moved her brow.
Then, somewhat incredulously, she said, "You're saying I'm pregnant? I... I'm having a baby? Me?"
As Mu Xin Nuan spoke, her eyes looked down at her abdomen, as if she couldn't believe that a tiny life was growing inside her.
Duanmu Chuze nodded. "You heard me right. You're pregnant with our child now, so you have to be careful in everything you do from now on. You can't hurt yourself, and you can't hurt the baby. Also, I've already sent someone to tell Aunt Fang that you have to avoid many things you can't eat anymore."
