Chapter 243 Loyal Maid Seven
The queen subconsciously stood up. After realizing her gaffe, the queen's expression changed and she instead raised a smile, but the smile did not reach her eyes.
"This...can't she be pregnant? No, if it is true, it will be a great blessing for the royal family. Since the emperor ascended the throne, except for the two little princesses under his knees, there has never been anything else. Heir, if Yichongrong is really pregnant, then she is really pregnant with a noble son." A concubine next to her covered her mouth and said.
The queen reacted quickly and immediately asked the imperial doctor to come over and check her pulse. Then everyone looked at Liu Qingran's belly with concern.
Liu Qingran also became nervous, biting her lower lip tightly, until the imperial doctor withdrew his hand and asked several other imperial doctors to check the pulse together, and finally nodded affirmatively.
"Reporting to the Queen, Yichongrong is indeed pregnant, and she is already three months old."
The queen nodded with a smile, "Come here, hurry up and tell the emperor this good news. Yichongrong Ning is really good, but why did it take three months to find out? During this period, Yichongrong didn't have any Do you feel something is wrong? ”
Liu Qingran lowered her head, "Reporting to the Queen, I have been unwell since I was a child. When I first got pregnant, I thought I was sick. It is also possible that I have never given birth to a prince or a princess, so I didn't realize that I was sick." Already pregnant
The Queen and her concubines knew nothing about pregnancy postures. In order to protect the prince and the princess, she hoped that the Queen would reward two experienced nuns. ”
The queen pursed her lips and glanced at Yi Chongrong. She felt that this concubine should not be underestimated. She was pregnant for three months without saying a word. It was not until her belly was about to grow that she revealed it. Now she is looking for two more. An experienced nanny helps take care of her, haha... But what if she gets pregnant? Whether he can be born or not is the most important thing.
"My sister is a blessed person. I just hope that I can take advantage of this blessing and give instructions to the royal family as soon as possible. I remember that when the emperor was selecting her, he said that whoever gave birth to the first dragon son first would be the first to be named a concubine."
As soon as the Empress finished speaking, Concubine Shu's expression changed immediately. Now there was only Sophie in the concubine position. If there was one more concubine, and she still had a child, wouldn't she be subordinated to others?
Liu Qingran touched her belly that was still swollen and smiled slightly, "The queen is joking, the child has not been born yet, no one knows whether it is a boy or a girl, but compared to the little prince, Chen Qi also wants a little yellow girl. , people say that a daughter loves her mother, and more importantly, the daughter is like her father, maybe the little princess will be exactly like the emperor.”
The queen was still generous and decent. She rewarded her with a lot of things and sent Yichong Rong off thoughtfully. After all the concubines left, the queen's expression finally changed.
The mother next to her also felt excited, "The Queen said this is a good thing. There has never been a prince under the emperor's knees. I don't know how many times the previous dynasty and the harem had quarreled over this matter. Some people even blamed the Queen for not being enough." He is virtuous and generous, and now that a little prince is about to be born, those people must not dare to say anything more.”
The Empress Queen looked at her belly that had not yet swelled, with a wry smile on her face, "Since I gave birth to the eldest princess, my belly has been silent, and I drank so much medicine to make the baby. It's a pity... I'm not lucky, that's all, I can Being able to conceive is one thing, but being able to give birth is another.
Besides, Yichongrong's family background is average. Even if she gives birth to a little prince, there's no telling whether she can stay with her to take care of him..." The Queen did have the idea of bringing the child to her to raise her, but she was a little hesitant. , after all, I am still young, maybe I will get pregnant one day. If I adopt this child, then the child will be Dizi. Even if it is not, it will grow up under my knees. As a queen, I must not favor one thing against another.
As long as the queen thought that this child might take up her son's blessings, the queen would be reluctant. However, if she did not raise this child, the queen's position would be a bit unstable. If the prince was raised by other concubines, it would be equivalent to Giving others an advantage...
The harem was in turmoil because of Yi Chongrong's pregnancy. It can be said that they were quite fond of her, but unfortunately there has been no movement, especially Empress Shu Fei. She was the best in doting, but now she is pregnant for a long time. There was a movement, and even Empress Shu Fei had some doubts about whether she could not have a baby. Otherwise, why could everyone else get pregnant, but she alone couldn't. You have to know that she is three or four times more favored than others!
When the emperor learned that someone in the harem was pregnant, his face was filled with joy, "This is a great joy. This person, Yi Chongrong, has contributed to the birth of the emperor's heir, and she is named Jieyu."
The emperor was actually quite generous to the women in the harem. The favored women were given positions and rewards to the favored ones. He never favored one over the other. Although he loved Concubine Shu, he was still a bowl of water.
Liu Qingran had been banned for a short time before, but now he was banned directly. For Jieyu, since the title was retained, it was equivalent to jumping up a level.
"Congratulations to the empress." Empress Jieyu is also the lord of the first palace, and it doesn't matter whether the empress gives birth to a boy or a girl. It doesn't matter if she raises a girl by herself. She will probably get some rewards, but if she gives birth to a boy Boy, a concubine is indispensable.
Rewards flowed into Liu Qingran's palace. At the same time, the Ministry of Internal Affairs also brought a large group of servants, as well as several experienced nuns.
Linlang had already arranged everything when Liu Qingran first found out she was pregnant. Even the pregnant grandma found someone to check it out in advance. Unfortunately, no one from the Ministry of Internal Affairs sent her, so she immediately arranged it. He gave two names and asked them to send these two people over.
The head of the House of Internal Affairs wiped the non-existent sweat on his head, raised his head and originally wanted to politely refuse. You must know that these people were sent here at the Queen's command, but when he saw Lin Lang's clear eyes, he was about to I swallowed the words I uttered, that’s all, can I do it later? Everyone in the palace is not a fool. They obviously knew that there was something wrong with these people, so they deliberately wanted to give them to them. I would probably offend Yi Jieyu by then, so she immediately agreed with a smile. And promised to send the person over later.
After sending away the head of the House of Internal Affairs, Linlang began to train the new maids. These people were all found with great difficulty. They all had innocent family backgrounds and had no involvement with other concubines. While grandma was pregnant, Linlang also set a rule. From now on, the palace was not allowed to move around at will, lest some blind little palace maids bump into the empress. At the same time, she was not allowed to go out after the lights were turned off. Even if they went out, they had to go together and supervise each other.
After doing this, the atmosphere in the entire palace became solemn. At least the people around them were like buckets. A needle couldn't get in and water couldn't get in. Everyone couldn't help but sigh that Yi Jieyu was really well-mannered. , Manage your palace strictly.
"Haha, damn little bitch, I really underestimated him. He seemed quite honest before, but I didn't expect that he was also a treacherous person behind his back. He got pregnant without saying a word, and she was still three months old, haha... …”
