There were many people feeling unwell like her, including Princess Cuiwei.
Whether Princess Cuiwei was genuinely unwell or was said to be so by the Empress, only the involved parties would know.
Naturally, Xia Yuan and Princess Anle were going to the palace, while Tian Hui was pregnant, so Xia Zhen, unwilling to let her tire herself, found an excuse not to go to the palace.
However, the couple didn't remain idle; fearing that Tian Hui would be bored at home, Xia Zhen secretly instructed the servants to buy many flower lanterns from the street and hang them in their courtyard.
The entire courtyard suddenly became bright and cheerful, with adorable rabbit lanterns, mischievous tiger lanterns, and all kinds of patterns in abundance.
Tian Hui was both moved and delighted, having initially lost hope for today's Lantern Festival.
Who would have thought that Xia Zhen, usually single-minded and quite oblivious in matters of affection, could do something so romantic?
