With Shen Zhaowan's return to the palace, the news of her canonization as a noble concubine quickly spread throughout the capital.

The news of the pregnancy also spread like wildfire.

The royal temple made donations for a month to accumulate merit for the royal heirs.

Shen Zhaowan returned to the familiar Luanhua Palace, and the palace maids in the courtyard were kneeling on the ground.

"Welcome, Madam Imperial Concubine."

……

Just as Shen Zhaowan expected, the palace maids serving in Luanhua Palace were unharmed.

Fuling, the personal maid, burst into tears: "My lady, seeing you return safely, I am finally relieved."

"Get up. It's my fault for making you worry."

"Your Highness, please don't bother me. Please let me help you go in first. You are pregnant now."

"Don't make a fuss." Shen Zhaowan said with a smile.

Fuling disagreed: "This is your Majesty's first child, so we can't be careless."

"Okay, okay, I'll listen to you." Shen Zhaowan looked at Fuling's solemn expression and had to follow her.

The matter concerning Shen Zhaowan naturally caused a sensation in the previous dynasty. Although the news of the concubine's escape was concealed very well, some people still made some guesses. Unexpectedly, not only did she not anger His Majesty, but she turned over and became a noble concubine.

Even if there were people who were jealous and envious, after what happened before, no one would dare to speak frankly about what was going on in the harem of His Majesty.

Pei Yanheng spoke with respectful words of congratulations, and the smile on his face never disappeared during the court session. This was considered the most comfortable court meeting these ministers had attended in all these years.

"My dear ministers, if you have anything to report, please report it. If you don't, please leave." Pei Yanheng paused for a moment and said, "I will allow you to take a three-day rest."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, and thank you, Concubine Zhao." The Prime Minister took the lead in shouting, expressing his joy from the bottom of his heart.

In an instant, the court was filled with unanimous voices of thanks.

Pei Yanheng stood up and left with a smile.

……

After court, Pei Yanheng would always go to Shen Zhaowan first.

The memorials were moved to Shen Zhaowan's place without any hesitation. His Qianqing Palace had been empty for a long time.

As the days grew hotter, Shen Zhaowan's belly gradually bulged.

When she was three months pregnant, the Imperial Hospital discovered that she was pregnant with twins.

This time, Pei Yanheng became even more nervous.

He ordered the Imperial Hospital to prepare a dietary recipe suitable for Shen Zhaowan's body, and also collected some precautions about twins from the public.

"Your Majesty, I kicked you, touch me."

Shen Zhaowan took Pei Yanheng's hand and slowly placed it on her belly.

Perhaps because of the blood relationship, Pei Yanheng felt a sense of intimacy at the moment of touch.

"Be obedient and don't make trouble for your mother." Pei Yanheng was thinking about something and said with a serious face.

"Hahaha, your majesty, I find you so adorable."

Pei Yanheng looked at Shen Zhaowan helplessly, without saying anything, just looking at Shen Zhaowan intently.

Just when Pei Yanheng and Shen Zhaowan were getting along intimately in the palace, Xichang Kingdom was in chaos.

Pei Yanheng did not lead the army in person this time. The situation was naturally different this time. He had many capable generals under his command, and he dispatched General Zhenyuan from the border to attack Xichang State directly.

After the old emperor of Xichang suffered a stroke, he became increasingly unable to control the court.

The generals sent by the State of Xichang encountered the soldiers of Chenlin Kingdom and fought and retreated. Urgent reports were sent back to the emperor of Xichang Kingdom, which made his hands tremble constantly. Chenlin Kingdom captured three cities without many casualties. If they continued at this speed, it would not take long to reach the capital, Aoshima.

The Emperor of Xichang was restless and finally decided to lead the army himself and let Shen Zhaowan's father govern the country.

This is exactly what the prince wanted.

However, the emperor of Xichang fled westward with tens of thousands of troops.

By the time Shen Zhaowan's father came to his senses from his joyful mood, the Emperor of Xichang had already fled far away.

But he had to take over all this mess. The joy of obtaining the throne was also diluted. If he could not stop the army of Chenlin Kingdom, he would lose his country before he even ascended the throne.

However, some of the princes had long been dissatisfied with his appointment as regent, and each of them was unwilling to step forward to resist the foreign enemies, which made it difficult to reach a consensus in a short period of time. Some even saw that their father had fled, so they fled even more for their lives.

The soldiers of Chenlin Kingdom did not give them time to discuss the matter properly. The news of the emperor's escape spread, and the offensive was unstoppable. Some small towns even took the initiative to open their gates in order to survive.

They think simply and just want to live a good life. Naturally, the people of Chenlin Kingdom live better than them, so they might as well accept it.

The army was approaching the city, and the princes were terrified.

The prince regent who had not yet obtained the throne was pushed out, and this culprit became a tool to extinguish the anger of the people.

Neither the country nor the city was defended.

Xichang State was thus conquered by Chenlin State. The fleeing royal family members all ran westward and lived in a small city. They had only two choices: continue to escape or die. As for resistance and wanting to make a comeback, they would be strangled with Pei Yanheng around.

As reports of victory were sent to the imperial palace of Chenlin Kingdom, the territory under Pei Yanheng's rule was also expanding.

Although he did not go to the front line in person, Pei Yanheng was extremely busy.

As requested, Shen Zhaowan started taking another walk after dinner.

Her belly is unusually obvious now, but Shen Zhaowan didn't seem to have any uncomfortable reaction when she was pregnant with this baby. Her complexion even became more rosy. Pei Yanheng has lost a lot of weight.

She was dressed in a red palace dress, looking charming and attractive, with a touch of tenderness between her eyebrows.

Shen Zhaowan walked for a while while touching her belly and was then supported by Pei Yanheng.

"Aren't you still dealing with things?"

"I'll walk with you again after we're done."

"Okay."

……

After Shen Zhaowan fell asleep, Pei Yanheng felt upset and went to Fengxian Hall alone.

He stood there for a long time, looking at the tablets of his father and mother. In a trance, he seemed to see the faces of the two reappear in front of him, looking at him with a smile.

Many years ago, the late emperor was biased and wrongly accused Prince Yide because of the imperial examination case. Because of his uncle's instigation, his whole family was exiled and hunted down all the way. He lost his parents at a young age. His father was the designated prince since birth. He was gentle and polite, caring about the people, and fair and selfless, but he was killed. At that time, the whole city petitioned, but it failed to change the result. Fortunately, he took revenge with his own hands.

The sorrow of losing loved ones, the depression of being wrongly accused, the annoyance of years of revenge, the loneliness of sitting alone on the high platform, now Wanwan is about to give birth, and although he does not believe in gods or Buddhas, he still hopes from the bottom of his heart that she can be safe.

……

On the eve of New Year's Eve, an ordinary day, Shen Zhaowan took action.

Pei Yanheng lived together and quickly called the people who had been arranged in advance.

As blood passed before his eyes, Pei Yanheng's heart tensed and he stared closely at the inner room.

When the auspicious snow first falls, a few cries are heard, and everyone is safe.

"Congratulations, Your Majesty. It's twins, a boy and a girl. The little prince and princess are safe."

Pei Yanheng glanced at the baby in the midwife's arms, which looked quite white. Then he went in to see Wanwan, "My beloved."

"Your Majesty, I am in so much pain."

Pei Yanheng said in a hoarse voice: "I'm sorry for making you suffer."

"Does the child look good?"

"It's nice, take a rest first, I'll be here with you."

Shen Zhaowan didn't suffer much because she had Xiaobai's protection, but she still told Pei Yanheng about it at the right time to let him know how difficult it was for her.

[Ding ding ding, the male protagonist Pei Yanheng's love value +5, the current love value is 100. The love value is full. 】

On the New Year's Eve of the Spring Festival, since Shen Zhaowan was still in confinement, Pei Yanheng attended the banquet alone, issued an edict to confer the title of empress, and ordered the Imperial Astronomical Observatory to choose an auspicious day to hold the ceremony.

"Congratulations, Your Majesty, and congratulations, Your Majesty the Queen."

……

Shen Zhaowan, wearing the uniform of the queen, walked up to the platform step by step. Her appearance became more and more beautiful and graceful. She imitated Pei Yanheng's expression and was also very majestic.

The two children were held by the palace servants and watched curiously.

"Long live your majesty."

"Long live the Queen."

The ministers all knew that their Majesty treated the Queen very much as his favorite. When Pei Yanheng heard this, he was so happy that he directly appointed the little prince as the Crown Prince and granted the little princess a fiefdom and title.

Pei Yanheng took Shen Zhaowan's hand and said, "Wanwan, let's see this country together."

"I wish to grow old with Your Majesty."

……

"Brother, where are our father, the emperor and our mother?"

The little boy who was sitting at the desk and concentrating on reading raised his head when he heard the voice. He looked at his sister who had barged in and said, "Father, the Emperor, and Mother, the Empress, are out."

"Why don't you take me with you? Why do you leave me behind while I'm studying medicine? Humph!" The little girl who looked very similar to Shen Zhaowan was delicate and graceful. She snorted angrily.

"Brother, let's go find them, how about that?"

"Oh, Your Highness, the Princess, His Majesty and the Queen naturally want to enjoy themselves and will be back soon." Eunuch Shi tried to dissuade her. If Your Highness was really allowed to go out, it would disturb His Majesty. His Majesty had instructed that the Queen should be given a surprise.

"Okay, forget it. If they bring me a gift, I will forgive them." The little girl said this seriously, but when she thought of her father and mother's clingy attitude, she gave up the idea of ​​looking for them.

Hearing this, the prince shook his head helplessly and continued to concentrate on reading the few memorials.

The Emperor and the Empress do love each other so naturally they don’t want them to disturb them.

The bamboo forest and bamboo house that Shen Zhaowan and Pei Yanheng had visited that year had long been renovated by Pei Yanheng and looked brand new.

After a walk, Shen Zhaowan was surprised by the gift prepared by Pei Yanheng. She took the initiative to sit on his lap boldly. The two looked into each other's eyes and soon their breaths were entangled. Shen Zhaowan hooked her belt and quickly untied it, touching Pei Yanheng's chest in circles. The hot breath enveloped the two of them. The wind knocked on the bamboo, he pushed against her, and the sound of the bamboo sea covered the sounds of their joy.

Tied to each other for life.
