Chapter 165
Smiling, she shook her head and said, "I am not a person who is impatient. Since she is serving in Jingren Palace, let her learn more from you. She is so stingy and is not worthy of being a concubine."
"Yes."
Qingying didn't force it, as the person in front of her wasn't serious.
If we can't go today, we can do it tomorrow.
There was no more talk on this matter. After a moment of silence, Qingying was about to speak again when Wang Qin walked in with his body half bowed.
"Your Majesty, someone from Chuxiu Palace has reported that Concubine Mei is feeling unwell. The imperial physician has been consulted and discovered that Concubine Mei is two months pregnant."
There are only two princes and two princesses in the palace now.
The emperor had few children, and the empress dowager had mentioned this many times.
Upon hearing this good news, Hongli stood up immediately with joy.
"Pregnant? Really?"
"Your Majesty, I have inquired carefully, and the imperial physician has confirmed that the young lady's pregnancy is indeed true."
Qingying stood up after hearing this and said, "Your Majesty, this is Concubine Mei's first pregnancy and she's still young. She's probably at a loss right now. If Your Majesty has time, why not go and see her first, and reassure her?"
Hongli nodded immediately after hearing this and said, "Qingying, you are very thoughtful. I will go to Chuxiu Palace now and come back to have lunch with you tomorrow."
"Yes, I will send you to the Emperor respectfully."
Hongli left, and a moment later Xiuxia came in with a bowl of medicine.
"Miss."
Qingying took the bowl of medicine without any hesitation and drank it all.
Xiu Xia, however, looked somewhat reluctant. "Your Majesty, I've been drinking this contraceptive medicine since I entered the palace, and it's been nearly a year now. Although Imperial Doctor Zhang said it's harmless, how can I be completely sure?"
"This servant dares me to stop."
Qingying naturally knew that what Xiuxia said was out of concern.
Putting down the medicine bowl and taking the handkerchief, he replied, "Zhang Xun's father is the former director of the Imperial Hospital. His medical skills are the least of our worries. Besides, now is not the best time to get pregnant. It's better to wait a little longer."
Qingying's words could not be refused, and Xiuxia didn't say much.
I had no choice but to agree silently.
After a pause, until the bitterness in her mouth subsided, Qingying continued, "Concubine Mei is pregnant. Let someone investigate. If it's true, there's no need to hide it. All six palaces, east and west, need to know."
"Yes."
Xiuxia went downstairs, and Qingying picked up a storybook on the couch.
Now that I have a new life, my thoughts are completely different from before.
If I were Zhu Yixiu, I would have already figured out clearly how to make Mei Changzai have a miscarriage.
But now Qingying has completely lost such thoughts.
Nowadays, people attach more importance to their origins.
The Ulanara clan came from the upper three banners of the Manchu army.
She also had a biological aunt who was the empress dowager and sat in Shoukang Palace.
Not to mention Bai Ruiji, who was born into a family of musicians, even if Gao Xiyue was pregnant and gave birth to a prince, what kind of waves could it cause?
Besides, it was my own fault for not allowing Xuan Ling to have more children in his harem.
Being obsessed with the so-called love between husband and wife, one does things that should not happen.
Now that I've figured it out, I feel that my previous thoughts were so stupid.
Let her have more children. The more children she has, the more disputes she will have. This will allow her, the future queen, to sit on the throne more securely.
...
Mei Changzai is pregnant and is promoted to a noble position.
As soon as the news came out, several teacups were broken in Xianfu Palace.
Since arriving at the palace, the child has become a thorn in Concubine Hui's heart.
After years of grace and countless bitter, suicidal medicines, she has never seen any results.
But now?
It turned out that the person who played the pipa was inferior to herself in every way, but the substitute the emperor found for her became pregnant so soon.
How could she not hate him?
But this hatred was not directed at Concubine Mei.
"Where's the eldest princess? Bring her here!"
Xing Xuan naturally knew why Concubine Hui emphasized this.
He hurried forward to comfort her, "My Lady, calm down. Why would you hurt yourself for a child?"
Isn’t that right?
Since entering the palace, the Queen Mother ordered Huifei to raise the eldest princess born to the previous queen.
Concubine Hui blamed the late queen for her inability to conceive for many years.
Naturally, it was impossible for him to have a good face towards the eldest princess.
