Chapter 1120: Chapter 1024: Brother Ye, please help me!
Ye Han, the one left behind, felt his heart thumping erratically as he stood quietly in place, sensing Su Pan’er’s gaze and not even daring to lift his head.
He couldn’t articulate exactly what he was so nervous about.
But whenever he faced her, his heart was utterly out of his control, and he could only arm himself with indifference.
Although Ye Han maintained his usual indifferent demeanor, Su Pan’er still felt genuinely happy to see him.
She leaned back with effort and spoke with a smile, "Brother Ye, how have you been recently?"
"To answer the Empress, this humble official is well."
The tone was stiff without the slightest fluctuation.
Gazing at Ye Han’s indifferent face, Su Pan’er couldn’t describe the mix of feelings in her heart, and she suddenly made small talk, "Brother Ye, so many years have passed, you should have someone by your side to look after you by now. Having a woman, even just to come home to a warm cup of tea, would be good."
Ye Han bowed his head even lower, "Thank you for your concern, Your Highness. However, this humble official has grown accustomed to being alone and has no intention of troubling any lady. As for Your Highness’s Phoenix Body, you need to be more careful."
"Yes, I know,"
Su Pan’er struggled to shift her position, "Brother Ye, I want to give birth to the child."
Ye Han, without lifting his head, replied, "Your Highness need not worry, Nanny Long is a master of gynecology and will certainly take good care of Your Highness’s Phoenix Body. There’s no need for concern."
"No, not that,"
Su Pan’er shook her head decisively and looked intently at Ye Han, her face wearing a faint smile of determined resolution, "I mean, I want to have this child. Help me, Brother Ye!"
These words caused Ye Han’s hands to suddenly clench into fists, and he abruptly lifted his head to look at her.
And allowed Su Pan’er to see the complicated and unfathomable expression in his eyes.
The faint smile on Su Pan’er’s face grew broader, yet she didn’t speak again.
Ye Han was silent for a moment before he lowered his head again to hide the loss of control he had just shown.
"Your Highness..."
"Brother Ye, help me!"
Before he could finish, Su Pan’er interrupted him, "I know my own body well, and I won’t joke with my life. Trust me!"
Her earnest and steadfast look touched Ye Han deeply. After a long silence, he finally asked softly,
"Has Your Highness told this to His Majesty?"
"I have said that I must give birth to the child."
"And what Your Highness says about not joking with your own life, is it true? Even if all the Imperial Physicians insist that Your Highness should give up, will you still refuse to?" Ye Han asked back.
"Yes! I will not give up on them!"
Su Pan’er stated with utter certainty, "Although there’s also a part of me that hopes the child in my womb is a boy, the most important reason is that they are my children. These are two lives, my two children. If they had never come into my womb, it would be another matter, but since they have, it means I share a mother-child bond with them. With that alone, I won’t give up the chance for them to see this world, even just once."
Ye Han fell silent.
His look at Su Pan’er’s face was indescribably complex.
Su Pan’er gazed back at him, her eyes brimming with hope. Ye Han held a very important place in Qin Yi’s heart, as both a mentor and friend and even more as a brother who truly shared life and death experiences.
If she could persuade him to stand by her side, she believed that Qin Yi would carefully consider his advice before making any decisions.
After a long while, Ye Han finally averted his gaze.
"This humble official understands," he said.
Having said that, he turned and left the Warm Pavilion.
Su Pan’er frowned, what did he mean by that, did he agree or not?
Outside the Warm Pavilion, Qin Yi naturally wanted to hear Nanny Long’s diagnosis result.
But Nanny Long asked His Majesty in return, "Before answering His Majesty’s question, there are two things I’m not sure whether I should ask."
Qin Yi’s eyebrows came together, "You may ask."
"I would like to ask whether all the Imperial Physicians have suggested to His Majesty that the Empress should have an abortion?"
This question made Qin Yi’s face darken, but he nodded slightly, "Why do you ask?"
"Your Majesty, I do not recommend that the Empress have an abortion."
"Why not?"
"The reason is quite simple."
Nanny Long had already carefully explained Su Pan’er’s condition, "Right now, it seems that the Empress’s Phoenix Body is not in good condition, but, having an abortion would cause even greater harm to the mother’s body. In fact, it was very difficult for the Empress to conceive in the first place, yet she did conceive, and moreover, twins. Precisely because she should not have been pregnant but was, not only can we not perform an abortion, but we must also do everything possible to maintain the pregnancy. Otherwise, the day of the abortion would be the day the Empress loses her life."
"What?"
This statement unsettled Qin Yi, "Where did you get this idea?"
Nanny Long raised her head to glance at His Majesty and quickly lowered it again, "Your Majesty, I am only speculating based on many years of midwifery experience. If His Majesty does not believe it, there is no need to listen solely to my words."
"This..."
Qin Yi could no longer remain calm.
On one side, people were urging him to make a decision quickly, while on the other, he was told that abortion was absolutely not an option, truly putting him between a rock and a hard place.
Just at this moment, Ye Han came out of the Warm Pavilion and bowed to Qin Yi.
"Your Majesty."
"Hmm, how is the Empress?"
"Your Majesty, I would like to speak with you in private," Ye Han reported, and then added, "It’s about the matter of the Empress."
"Very well."
Qin Yi waved everyone away, leaving only Ye Han to speak with him privately for quite some time. As for what they discussed, no one knew. After coming out, Qin Yi decisively rejected the Imperial Physicians’ decision to perform an abortion, instead instructing Su Pan’er to focus on Pregnancy Health, and even Nanny Long was kept in the palace to accompany Su Pan’er throughout her childbirth.
Those Imperial Physicians would have liked to object, but the original ten-day deadline had already passed, and no one dared to bring up abortion again.
Instead, it was not long before His Majesty acted with the speed of lightning, not only arresting two of the Imperial Physicians but also taking the opportunity to deal with many Palace Maidens.
Blood and terror filled the air.
After ten days, the Assistant Mentor Liu’s mansion suddenly caught fire, and the blaze brightened the sky for ten miles around, alarming everyone inside and outside the Imperial City. His Majesty quickly mobilized the Palace Guards stationed in the city to aid the situation, and countless civilians spontaneously organized to fight the fire.
But coincidentally, a southeast wind began to blow that day, and such unusual weather only fueled the fire, making it burn more fiercely. The wind fed the fire, and the fire fed the wind, and soon it swept through the nearby Earl Jun’s Mansion, with cries of horror filling the sky.
Even after the officials and civilians urgently dug a firebreak, they still could not stop the relentless fire from devouring countless lives. The buildings of the Liu Family’s Mansion were mercilessly buried in the blaze, and hardly one in ten of those who escaped survived.
And the Jun Family’s Mansion, implicated by the Liu Mansion’s disaster, was not much luckier—half of the mansion was also engulfed by the flames, leaving behind devastation and severely weakened vitality.
When the fire was finally extinguished, it had been three days.
In the years that followed, the Liu Family’s Mansion became a place people would detour around, with countless unthinkable ghost stories emanating from within, discouraging people from venturing too close.
