Zheng Xiyan's eyes flashed with sarcasm, and she said in a gentle voice: "Your Majesty's love for me is remembered in my heart, but after all, this is Wen Chongyi's first pregnancy, so Your Majesty should pay more attention to her."

Xiao Xuanchen thought for a moment, and finally agreed to her request, "Okay! I'll go see her later."

"Yeah." Zheng Xiyan lowered her eyes and chuckled.

Zhonghua Palace

After Wen Chongyi came back, she gently stroked her belly, still a little bit unbelieving, "Qiaohong, am I really pregnant?"

Qiaohong and the palace maids of Zhonghua Palace knelt down to congratulate, "How could Imperial Doctor Zhang's diagnosis be wrong? Congratulations, Your Majesty."

"I'm going to be a mother. I'm actually going to be a mother." Wen Chongyi whispered. She was so happy that she didn't know what to say.

At this time, Nanny Yu and Nanny Ru came, bringing a lot of supplements, "paying respects to Empress Chongyi."

"Madame Yu?" Wen Chongyi quickly stood up to greet her. Madame Yu had taken good care of her over the years, and she had always been grateful to her.

"The Empress Dowager learned that Empress Chongyi was pregnant, so she specially ordered me to bring you some supplements." Nanny Yu said in a gentle voice.

Wen Chongyi smiled and said, "Thank the Empress Dowager on my behalf."

"The Queen Mother also asked me to bring Nanny Ru here. From today on, Nanny Ru will stay in Zhonghua Palace to take care of you until you give birth smoothly."

Wen Chongyi showed surprise, "Madam Ru."

Madam Ru stepped forward and said, "This servant pays respects to Empress Chongyi."

"Madame Ru is someone the Empress Dowager is used to. How can this be good..." Wen Chongyi asked subconsciously. Is this... is this too...

"With so many people in the palace losing their children one after another, the Empress Dowager can't help but worry about you. There must not be any accidents in this pregnancy." Nanny Yu replied in a gentle voice.

Wen Chongyi naturally understood the good intentions of the empress dowager. Xu Chongyuan and Zhao Cairen had miscarried one after another. Thinking of their screams that day, she was a little scared. "I know the good intentions of the empress dowager, so I have to trouble Madam Ru."

"You are too polite, Empress Chongyi. It is my blessing to be able to serve you." Nanny Ru replied.

Nanny Yu said again: "Since the things and people have been delivered, I will take my leave first."

"Mammy, take care."

"it is good!"

During lunch, Xiao Xuanchen came to Zhonghua Palace and ordered people to send a lot of rewards. The rewards filled the entire yard. Although Wen Chongyi still had a dull expression on the surface, she was happy in her heart.

Xiao Xuanchen's mouth curled up, and he was in a particularly good mood. Wen Chongyi stepped forward and saluted, "Your Majesty, I respectfully wish you the best of health. Your Majesty, may you be blessed with good health."

Xiao Xuanchen walked up to her and stretched out his hands to her. Wen Chongyi raised her eyes and smiled at him gently, then placed her hands in his obediently. Xiao Xuanchen pulled her up with a little force.

"Now that you're pregnant, you don't have to perform formalities anymore." Xiao Xuanchen patted her hands, nodded slightly, and spoke to her very gently.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Wen Chongyi smiled happily.

"I asked someone to send some things over. Do you like them?" Xiao Xuanchen pulled her into the hall.

"I like it very much, thank you, Your Majesty." They had known each other since childhood, but as they grew older, they realized that there were statuses and rules between them, so she treated him with more respect and awe.

Later, he ascended the throne and appointed a queen, but she felt a little empty in her heart.

When the imperial edict for the selection of concubines came down, she did hesitate. With her grandfather's face, if she did not want to enter the palace, she could find a good husband and become the original wife. But in the end, she still chose to enter the palace. Even if she had to be the most inconspicuous woman in his harem, she was willing to do so.

After entering the palace, he treated her no differently than other women. Seeing him favoring other women, she couldn't help but feel sad and jealous.

These days, she often thought that they seemed to have returned to their childhood, those days when they were very close to each other.

Now that she has their child, his attention has finally shifted from other women to himself.

Even though his heart contained too many women, leaving very little room for herself, she was still willing to regard him as everything.

Weiyang Palace

Zheng Xiyan stood in front of the window. It was raining outside. Although she was enjoying the drizzle, her mind had long since flown away.

"Your Majesty, Wen Chongyi is pregnant. The Empress Dowager sent a lot of supplements to her and also sent Nanny Ru to Zhonghua Palace. His Majesty also gave her a lot of rewards." Shuang Ning said in a deep voice.

Zheng Xiyan came back to her senses, turned around, and said indifferently: "Now that you are pregnant with the dragon fetus, your status is different. The Queen Mother and His Majesty will naturally be concerned."

"But the Empress Dowager sent Madam Ru to Zhonghua Palace. The intention is obvious." Shuang Ning frowned. Isn't this a blatant slap in the face of their Empress Dowager?

Xu Chongyuan and Zhao Cairen had miscarriages one after another. As the Empress of the Central Palace, Your Majesty was inevitably derelict in her duty. Although Your Majesty and the Empress Dowager did not say anything, they have now made their choice in action.

"Yes! Xu Chongyuan and Zhao Cairen both had miscarriages. Wen Chongyi cannot have any more accidents with this pregnancy."

Biluo spoke up at this time, "Your Majesty is right!"

However, Zheng Xiyan can't care about Wen Chongyi now, the prince in her belly is the most important.

Zheng Xiyan stroked her belly gently and said, "Don't worry about what happened at Zhonghua Palace. The most important thing now is that I give birth to a prince smoothly. Nothing else matters."

"Yes!"

Zi Rui said, "In less than two months, the queen will be giving birth. You must be more careful during this period."

"I'm in a good mood today, so I'll reward all the palace maids in Weiyang Palace with three taels of silver. You will give the orders later." Zheng Xiyan ordered with a smile.

"Yes!"

"Help me lie down for a while."

"Yes!"

more than a month later

As night fell, after Zheng Xiyan finished her dinner, Biluo helped her get up. The moment she stood up, she suddenly felt uncomfortable in her stomach.

Zheng Xiyan covered her belly. With the experience from last time, she realized that she was about to give birth. "I'm afraid I'm about to give birth. Go call the midwife."

"Yes!"

Shuang Ning hurriedly called for help, "Someone come! Someone come!"

The midwife hurried into the bedroom, and Shuang Ning ordered the two young eunuchs, "You two, hurry to Zichen Hall and Shoukang Palace to invite His Majesty and the Queen Mother. The Queen is about to give birth."

"Yes! Sister Shuang Ning."

Princess Shion

When the young eunuch arrived at the Purple Palace, he ran out of breath and was stopped by the palace maid of the Purple Palace. "Which palace are you from?"

"Sister, the Queen is about to give birth. Please go in and tell her." The young eunuch said breathlessly.

The maid was surprised and said, "The Queen is about to give birth, but His Majesty is not in the Purple Palace at the moment."

"Where is His Majesty?"

"Your Majesty is currently in Zhonghua Palace, dining with Wen Chongyi."

The young eunuch didn't care about anything else and ran towards Zhonghua Palace.
