That was why after a month of changes, Imperial Concubine Li's body had not just changed. Her figure had also changed. 1357924?
Chu Li Yu naturally also thought of Imperial Concubine Li's current appearance.
A strange smile immediately appeared on his face.
The next day, Jiujiu informed Imperial Concubine Li that there was no need for her to come to Earthly Tranquility Palace to practice martial arts starting the next day. She was also relieved of her confinement and arranged for her to serve in her bed.
Over the course of a month, Jiujiu practically had people dig Imperial Concubine Li out of bed to practice martial arts before the sun rose. After she was done, she began to have her copy scriptures. At night, Chu Li Ge would be arranged by Jiujiu to visit the imperial concubines.
That was why over the course of the month, although Chu Li Ge and Imperial Concubine Li were very close to each other, there was practically no interaction between them. The only time they had interacted was when they had caught a glimpse of each other in Earthly Tranquility Palace.
A long absence makes the heart grow fonder, especially since Imperial Concubine Li was the cinnabar mole on Chu Li Ge's chest, the white moonlight before the climax. Chu Li Ge was no longer as dispirited and listless as he had been a few days ago. He excitedly headed toward Jing Yi Palace.
Imperial Concubine Li, who had received news that Chu Li Ge had come, had naturally dressed up and waited in front of Jing Yi Palace. When Chu Li Ge appeared, Imperial Concubine Li immediately kneeled and delicately said: "This concubine respectfully welcomes Your Majesty."
Imperial Concubine Li's voice was still very pleasant to listen to. It was just a few words, but Chu Li Ge's body immediately went limp. Having not seen Imperial Concubine Li for a long time, Chu Li Ge was practically unable to hold himself back as he strode forward and hugged Imperial Concubine Li, but when he pulled Imperial Concubine Li into his embrace, Chu Li Ge was immediately stunned.
Originally, Imperial Concubine Li's body was petite, and she was like a small ball in his embrace. She was soft and delicate like a ball of cotton, and it was extremely comfortable. But now, Imperial Concubine Li's body seemed to have become larger and sturdier. While hugging her, Chu Li Ge could even feel her muscles. They were so sturdy that they were even harder than the muscles on Chu Li Ge's body.
The joy of reuniting after such a long time was instantly reduced by the firm muscles of his hand.
Chu Li Ge had a conflicted expression as he brought Imperial Concubine Li Ge into the room.
But under the light, Chu Li Ge was stunned.
Although it was currently Autumn, practicing martial arts in the courtyard every day, even the wind was enough to turn a person's skin black, much less Imperial Concubine Li, who was directly exposed to the sunlight.
Being exposed to the wind and sun, her originally soft skin had become rough, and there were even scars on her beautiful face. There was no need to talk about her waist that had become thicker, as well as her firm thighs. Following Imperial Concubine Li's footsteps, Chu Li Ge could even see the outline of the muscles on Imperial Concubine Li's thighs.
Chu Li Ge liked Imperial Concubine Li because of her petite figure, and he liked her soft and boneless body. But now, even if her face still had that pitiful appearance, those muscles and those firm arms and legs made her seem even more like a man than Chu Li Ge.
Chu Li Ge had come here to hug a woman, not to hug a woman who was more like a man than he was. Seeing Imperial Concubine Li like this, Chu Li Ge truly lost all of his appetite. He did not say much to Imperial Concubine Li before turning to leave.
How could there be any trace of the affectionate appearance from a month ago?
Put plainly, Chu Li Ge was a scumbag. He liked Imperial Concubine Li, but he liked Imperial Concubine Li's beautiful little face and her graceful figure.
After Imperial Concubine Li lost the figure that Chu Li liked, she went from a red rose to a mosquito's blood, and the white moonlight became a grain of rice on the table.
In the following days, Jiujiu did not continue to have Imperial Concubine Li practice boxing, but Imperial Concubine Li's firm muscles could not be reduced no matter what. By the time the new year's banquet arrived, she saw Imperial Concubine Li once more, and Jiujiu nearly failed to recognize her.
Because it was Winter, the imperial concubines were all dressed a little thickly, and Imperial Concubine Li was naturally no exception.
But the current her was no longer the petite and lovely Imperial Concubine of the past. Her muscles were firm, and she looked even more like a man than a man. If she wore a little thicker, she would look especially strong. Especially when she stood with a group of petite imperial concubines, Imperial Concubine Li looked even more sturdy.
In fact, it seemed that she was even more sturdy than Jiujiu, who was pregnant.
When Chu Li Ge appeared, Imperial Concubine Li's eyes immediately lit up. Like a small light bulb, she followed Chu Li Ge's figure, but upon receiving Imperial Concubine Li's affectionate gaze, Chu Li Ge's expression looked as if he had swallowed a fly. It was extremely ugly.
In the past, Imperial Concubine Li was the woman that he loved the most. Now, Imperial Concubine Li's appearance was coarse, and her words and actions carried a bit of a martial artist's aura. Imperial Concubine Li's existence was truly a disgrace to him, as she constantly reminded him of just how bad his taste had been in the past. He had actually taken a woman as coarse as Imperial Concubine Li into his imperial harem.
However, the things that Chu Li Ge knew and the things that others knew, Imperial Concubine Li did not know.
In her heart, aside from her body being much sturdier than before, everything else was the same as before. As for Chu Li Ge's evasive gaze and disgusted expression, in her mind, it became a symbol of Chu Li Ge's fear of Jiujiu.
Because of this, Imperial Concubine Li looked at Jiujiu with an even more unfriendly gaze. As for the gaze that she looked at Chu Li Ge with, it was filled with even more pity. Her affectionate appearance caused Jiujiu to nearly laugh out loud.
Tsk tsk, she really was someone that could not see reality clearly.
After the banquet, Jiujiu directly returned to the palace.
At present, she was already four months pregnant, and she was already beginning to show signs of deterioration. Because her belly was much larger than that of a normal pregnant woman, she had an imperial physician take her pulse. Apparently, this was an extremely rare case of twins. In ancient times, where there was a lack of medicine, a woman giving birth was undoubtedly a trip to the gates of hell. As for twins, that was even more dangerous.
That was why Jiujiu paid great attention to her health. She had to walk a lot every day and was very particular about what she ate every day. As for Chu Li Ge, he did not spend much time with Jiujiu, and after Jiujiu became pregnant, she no longer looked for trouble. That was why he turned a blind eye to Jiujiu's care.
After returning to the palace, she dismissed her attendants. Before Jiujiu could walk to the bed, a pair of large hands gently wrapped around her somewhat thick waist from behind. His palm gently brushed across her belly as he said in a gentle tone, "How do you feel today?"
Jiujiu lowered her eyes, and there was gentleness in her eyes: "I'm fine."
Chu Li Yu's hand gently and heavily pressed on Jiujiu's waist, helping Jiujiu to ease her aching waist: "The imperial physician said that you're very likely to be pregnant with twins of a boy and a girl this time."
Jiujiu raised her eyebrows and slightly tilted her head. Looking at Chu Li Yu's gentle and handsome face as usual, she said: "And?"
"I'll remove all obstacles for you and my son, so that you'll have no worries for the rest of your lives. How does that sound?"
"Very good, husband, you're so good to me." Jiujiu leaned on Chu Li Yu's chest and said softly.
Chu Li Yu was almost done with the massage for Jiujiu. He immediately bent down and carried Jiujiu to the bed, then hugged her in the corridor and said: "Silly girl."
