The empress is pregnant, and the emperor's incense continues

"Don't make a fuss. You already have grandchildren. Don't let others laugh at you."

Meng Wenyao's words were drowned in the waves, and Xie Chenyi said dissatisfiedly: "My husband is only 45 years old, which is the age of a wolf and a tiger..."

It is really……

Thinking about that crazy night, Meng Wen Yao felt that she would be laughed at by her daughters-in-law. Maybe in a few years, she would be laughed at by her granddaughters-in-law for being disrespectful.

Or why not just not allow the daughters-in-law to come and pay their respects the next day and say that you are not feeling well?

No, no, there is no impenetrable wall in this backyard. If she said that, it would be obvious to the whole house that they did something at night.

It was not until dawn that Meng Wen Yao dozed off in front of her daughters-in-law, and she realized something was wrong.

"Mother, did you not sleep well last night?"

Meng Wenyao was startled and shook her head quickly: "No, people get sleepy when they get older."

It is not a good thing for a daughter-in-law to be filial and visit her parents on time every morning and evening.

After sending away several daughters-in-law, Meng Wen Yao looked at the maple leaves in the yard from afar and realized that it was already late autumn. She seemed to have lived in this palace for decades. The miserable experiences in her previous life now seemed like a dream.

Suddenly, his shoulders sank and a cloak fell on him. Xie Chenyi hugged Meng Wenyao from behind and asked softly, "What are you thinking about?"

Looking at the falling leaves, Meng Wenyao said leisurely: "I just feel that time flies, and half of my life has passed like this."

Helping Meng Wenyao brush away the fallen leaves on her head, Xie Chenyi said, "Then let's walk slowly in the second half of our lives, and make the most of the time we have together."

As time passed, no one mentioned the scandals in Fenyang Palace anymore. Even the rumor that the old Fenyang Prince married his brother's sister-in-law was forgotten. The only thing that was passed down was the lifelong companionship.

[Ding dong, congratulations to the host for completing another world. 】

Well, Meng Wen Yao felt dizzy and was just about to say why her head was getting more and more painful, but when she opened her eyes again, she found that she had arrived in another world.

A huge amount of information poured into her mind, making her confused for a moment. When her mind became clear again, she only felt the shaking of the carriage.

"Miss, here we are."

As the curtain of the carriage was lifted, what came into view was the towering palace walls and the crowded crowd at the palace gate. The banquet for the Queen's 35th birthday was very grand.

"Miss, look, Prince Chen is there."

Following the voice of the maid Fu Liu, Meng Wen Yao looked up and saw a familiar figure in her mind, her childhood sweetheart, Chen Dingbei, the son of Zhenyuan Marquis.

Meng Wenyao had just come here, and the impression of Chen Dingbei only remained in her mind, which was not very clear, so she asked with a little doubt: "Really?"

Fu Liu looked at Meng Wenyao's gloomy expression and explained in a chattering voice, "Prince Chen and Miss have been childhood sweethearts. They used to come to our house every few days. I am not wrong."

"Maybe." Anyway, he is not Meng Wen Yao's target, so she is not very interested in him now.

However, as Meng Wen Yao's personal maid, Fu Liu had witnessed Meng Wen Yao and Chen Dingbei growing up together as childhood sweethearts, and she couldn't bear to see that Meng Wen Yao had no interest in Chen Dingbei.

More importantly, everyone in Beijing knew that Meng Wenyao and Chen Dingbei loved each other. How could two unmarried men and women in love ignore their encounter?

Fu Liu couldn't help but mutter, "Miss, you caught a cold in the past half month, and the prince hasn't come for almost half a month. You wouldn't forget what he looks like just because you haven't seen him for a few days. I heard that the Marquis of Zhenyuan wanted the prince to go to the army for training. Maybe he went to the army in the past half month and didn't come to visit you, Miss?"

The memories in her mind have been sorted out very clearly, and Meng Wen Yao has fully understood the feelings between the original owner and Chen Dingbei.

But if they were in love with each other, how could they disappear for half a month without even saying hello? It was obvious that Chen Dingbei was bewitched by something in the past half month and even forgot to visit his childhood sweetheart when she was sick.

"Let's go."

Meng Wen Yao didn't want to dwell on this issue. Her target was the infertile emperor. Since the system asked her to come, she didn't want to do anything unnecessary. She should hurry into the palace and find a chance to meet the emperor.

Seeing Meng Wen Yao being so distant made Fu Liu very nervous. She thought that Meng Wen Yao must marry Chen Dingbei, and she would go there as a dowry maid. This Chen Dingbei would be the future husband of her and her mistress.

As a woman, how could she not be gentle and considerate? Chen Dingbei had only not shown up for half a month, and Meng Wenyao was acting like this and not even saying hello when she saw him. She was really not gentle and respectful enough.

She followed Meng Wenyao and looked towards Chen Dingbei. When she saw an opportunity, she called out, "Prince."

Chen Dingbei, who was talking to Lady Mingyuan, heard a familiar voice. He looked into the crowd and saw a familiar figure, his childhood sweetheart Meng Wenyao.

He wanted to go over and say hello. He hadn't seen her for half a month and didn't know if Meng Wen Yao missed him.

As soon as she moved her feet, the person in front of her said with a sweet smile: "Whose young lady is it that has the soul of Chen Shizi seduced away? This county lady is still waiting for your reply."

Chen Dingbei was stunned for a moment before he realized that he was talking to Lady Mingyuan. It would be impolite to leave at this time.

Especially since Princess Mingyuan has an extraordinary status, her biological brother will most likely be adopted by the Queen so that he can inherit the throne in the future.

If he left Mingyuan and went to find Meng Wenyao, it would really make Mingyuan lose face.

"I guess I heard it wrong. I looked around and no one was calling me."

Although she said this, Mingyuan was not blind. She had already followed Chen Dingbei's gaze and looked into the distance, and soon locked onto Meng Wenyao's back.

She smiled faintly and said, "I've heard that Minister Meng's legitimate daughter is both talented and beautiful, and is a famous beauty in the capital. Master Chen was looking at Miss Meng just now, right?"

"That's not true. You must be joking."

Chen Dingbei explained this because, although he and Meng Wenyao were childhood sweethearts and loved each other, their marriage had not yet been finalized. If he admitted that he was seeing Meng Wenyao, wouldn't that destroy Meng Wenyao's reputation?

Secondly, the emperor has been on the throne for many years, but he still has no children. He has been under pressure from the court for many years and has no intention of adopting a child.

Unexpectedly, a birthday banquet was suddenly held for the Queen this year, and the idea of ​​adopting a royal family member was vaguely revealed. If Mingyuan's brother was adopted, Mingyuan would be the eldest princess in the future. All the noble children in the capital were eager to talk to Mingyuan. Now that he was standing in front of Mingyuan, how could he give up the opportunity to get close to Mingyuan for others?

"The county lady has just been in the capital for half a month, so she probably hasn't been to many places. Let me tell you, the most fun thing in the capital is..."

Chen Dingbei knew how popular Mingyuan was now. Mingyuan came from King Jing's fiefdom and had only been in the capital for half a month. All the noble sons in the capital were flocking around Mingyuan, just to catch the eye of the next king.

As the son of the Marquis of Zhenyuan, it is his duty to please the next royal relative for the sake of his family. In the past half month, he has been busy trying to get close to Mingyuan so that Mingyuan can find an opportunity to introduce the son of King Jing to him.

He tried to please Mingyuan for the future of the family and ignored Meng Wen Yao. I think Meng Wen Yao knew his difficulties and should be able to understand him.

As he was enthusiastically introducing the attractions in the capital, a voice came from afar: "Prince!"
