The wicked imperial concubine is courting death again; the comments section teaches her how to win w

It is Ning Nishang.

Ning Nishang and Lu Linbai did not participate in the hunt; they were in the woods when the assassins appeared.

Hearing the screams and realizing something was wrong, Lu Linbai shielded Ning Nishang and hid far away.

They thought they were safe once the assassins were all killed, but then a mad tiger appeared.

Seeing that the mad tiger was about to pounce on Qi Yitang, Ning Nishang's mind went blank, and she rushed over almost instinctively.

[Oh no, the female lead is here!]

[Although you're a kind woman, what are you doing here in this situation? Get out of the way!!]

[I'm out of ideas, female lead's halo, hurry up and activate it!]

Lu Linbai's arms suddenly felt empty, and his expression changed drastically. "Xuan Niang!"

It's strange, really.

Ning Nishang was slender, and the tiger could easily flatten her with one swipe of its paw, but the moment she stood in front of Qi Yitang, the mad tiger suddenly stopped.

It roared, its massive body seemingly stopped for a moment by some invisible force, and it staggered back a step.

A glint of fear flashed in his murky vertical pupils.

In that brief moment of distraction, four arrows came flying through the air, piercing the tiger's forelegs almost simultaneously.

With its forelegs injured, the tiger's massive upper body collapsed with a crash, letting out a painful roar.

"roar--"

Without hesitation, Chi Zheng stepped forward and, together with Yuan Shuang and Mei Shu, stabbed the tiger in a vital spot.

A moment later, the tiger roared and struggled twice before losing all its breath.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

"His Majesty is back!" someone shouted.

Qi Yitang turned to look at the entrance to the hunting grounds, where several magnificent horses leaped out of the woods, exuding a powerful aura. "Giddy up—"

Xie Ling, the leader, rode up on horseback, his face cold and fierce, still holding the longbow in his hand.

He dismounted and pulled Qi Yitang into his arms, holding her tightly.

Her voice was slightly breathless, clearly from driving at high speed, "Are you alright?"

Qi Yitang felt a little pain from the tight grip and shook her head. "What about you?"

She looked up at Xie Ling and noticed a bloodstain on his cheek, probably from someone else. Aside from that, there were no other obvious wounds.

Just as she was about to say something, she felt the pain in her lower abdomen becoming more and more obvious. Suddenly, everything went black before her eyes, and Qi Yitang's body went limp as she fell into Xie Ling's arms.

"Tangtang!"

When Qi Yitang fainted, everyone panicked.

Xie Changqing's eyes widened. No way! He fought the tiger for so long and was sent flying without getting dizzy. How come she got dizzy?

I suggest you exercise more regularly, otherwise you'll be so weak.

Xie Ling scooped the person up in his arms and strode towards the main tent. "Summon the imperial physician!"

There were assassins and tigers just now, and those who were quick-witted had already dodged. Li Degui dragged a royal physician in from somewhere and scrambled in.

"Greetings, Your Majesty—" The imperial physician was disheveled, even his hat was askew.

Xie Ling grabbed him and pressed him against the bed. "Quickly, take Tangtang's pulse!"

A group of people gathered around, including Princess Anping, Ning Nishang, Lu Linbai, Xie Changqing, and Qi Jiyun, who had just returned. They all looked tense, their eyes fixed on the imperial physician.

A thin layer of sweat beaded on the imperial physician's forehead as he shakily placed his hand on Qi Yitang's wrist.

This pulse...

His expression changed slightly, he shifted his posture, took the pulse again, and pondered it carefully for a long time.

"But where are you hurt?"

Seeing the imperial physician close his eyes and sit still like an old monk during the examination, Qi Jiyun became anxious and said, "Imperial Physician, please say something!"

Qi Jiyun had been enjoying himself in the mountains and forests, and had even caught a lot of wild animals. They were fresh and the meat was tender. He was thinking of bringing them back to make barbecue for his future wife and sister that night.

But to my surprise, I saw the tiger dead as soon as I got back.

Qi Yitang fainted, and Chi Zheng was also injured. Qi Jiyun was filled with regret, wishing he had stayed by their side.

Xie Ling's brows were furrowed low. "How is Tangtang?"

The flow was smooth, like pearls rolling on a plate.

The imperial physician finally confirmed the pulse, his expression shifting from tension to surprise. He suddenly knelt down, his voice trembling with excitement.

"Congratulations, Your Majesty! Congratulations! Her Majesty the Empress is pregnant!"
