บท 211: 211: The breaking news

Sui's eyes widened in sheer disbelief, her heart pounding with the thunderous shock of the news. The revelation that one of the concubines was expecting was an explosive bolt from the blue.

This was supposed to be good news, but Sui could not help but doubt its truth. 

Sui immediately turned to look at Princess Yunjin, her heart racing with anticipation. But Princess Yunjin did not look shocked; her expression was a mask of enigmatic calm, a reaction that Sui could not fathom.

Instead, it seemed as if she was trying to control her laughter.

"One of my brother's wives is pregnant? Who knows about this news? Does my brother know? What about Duke Victor? Have they said anything to confirm or deny this news?"

Princess Yunjin seemed to relish this situation, her eyes sparkling with mischief, while the nanny looked on the verge of collapse.
