An Lingrong is pregnant.

This news caught Zhen Huan off guard.

However, Zhen Huan quickly adjusted her mood, smiled at Zhen Huan, and said, "What good news! According to Sister Mei's previous plan, my sister also successfully conceived a Dragonborn. Now I am the only one left..."

Originally, she was still congratulating An Lingrong, but as she spoke further, Zhen Huan's voice became smaller and smaller, like a murmur.

Most of An Lingrong's attention was focused on Zhen Huan, and she naturally did not ignore her almost imperceptible "soliloquy" at the end.

In fact, the moment Zhen Huan was stunned by her words, An Lingrong's mood sank.

Back then, she was envious and jealous of Zhen Huan's favor, and this was certainly due to her own inferiority complex and habit of self-pity, but it was also human nature.

The reason why An Lingrong is able to be calm and indifferent now, as if nothing matters to her, is because she has already lived once.

On the other hand, Zhen Huan is just a young girl now. Even though she is naturally intelligent and much more stable than others, she is not an inanimate object after all.

Therefore, when An Lingrong told Zhen Huan that she was pregnant, she was a little nervous.

Before, when they went to Xianfu Palace together to visit Shen Meizhuang, Zhen Huan had a strange mood.

An Lingrong did not want to destroy the sisterhood that she had worked so hard to establish, and seeing that Zhen Huan seemed to be in a bad mood, she prepared to speak to comfort her.

"It's okay, Lingrong, you don't have to comfort me."

Zhen Huan seemed to have anticipated what An Lingrong was going to say, but before she could open her mouth, she interrupted An Lingrong and said, "It's impossible not to be envious, but I'm even happier that you have good news! So there's no need to say anything, just be fine."

After Zhen Huan finished speaking, she stepped forward and took An Lingrong's hand, smiling and saying, "You are now as important as Sister Mei. When the child is born in the future, I will be his aunt. You can't escape this!"

"Then I'll take your kind words, sister." An Lingrong was originally quite surprised by Zhen Huan's words, but then she thought that with Zhen Huan's ability to deal with people in various ways, she would naturally not let her emotions affect others. Besides, they still had the sisterly love that they had gained from being together for a long time.

After realizing this, An Lingrong and Zhen Huan skipped the topic and agreed with a smile.

Then, An Lingrong placed her hand on Zhen Huan's belly and said meaningfully: "Sister Mei and I are both pregnant, and it's your turn next!"

"What nonsense are you talking about!"

Zhen Huan blushed immediately because of these words.

"Well, let's get out of here quickly, or some people's eyes will be pierced by the sight."

An Lingrong shook her head and signaled Zhen Huan that she could leave this corner with her.

In order to have a "secret talk", they came to this corner close to the palace wall with the help of Concubine Jing. Not far away, Cui Jinxi, Huanbi and others helped block the view of others.

But doing so also attracted the attention of many people. Although they could not hear clearly what An Lingrong and Zhen Huan said, they became more and more convinced that they must be hiding some secrets from others!

Otherwise, if you want to chat, just say it openly and directly. Why be so secretive?

Just as An Lingrong and Zhen Huan walked back to the crowd, the gate of Jingren Palace, which had been closed, slowly opened.

Jianqiu came out and said to everyone, "The Queen has woken up. All the ladies can enter the palace now!"

After these words were spoken, no one cared about An Lingrong anymore. They straightened their manners and walked into Jingren Palace one after another under Jianqiu's gaze.

"Lingrong, did you feel that there was something wrong with the way Aunt Jianqiu looked at us just now?"

After walking through the courtyard, into the corridor, and up the many steps, Zhen Huan suddenly tugged at An Lingrong's sleeve and whispered, "I feel a little strange..."

In the past, when Jianqiu saw them, she would not be overly enthusiastic but would not be so cold either. Moreover, Zhen Huan still remembered that An Lingrong was highly valued by the Queen. Because of this, Jianqiu usually treated An Lingrong very well.

But when they walked in just now, Zhen Huan could feel that there was something wrong with Jianqiu's gaze!

"Don't think too much."

An Lingrong shook her head at Zhen Huan, signaling her to be at ease.

In fact, An Lingrong also noticed the changes in Jianqiu, but she only knew the reason.

The reason is not complicated, it is simply because the queen has learned that she is pregnant!

As the Queen's confidant, Jianqiu always worries about what the Queen worries about and is happy about what the Queen is happy about.

Just like the Queen wanted to control herself as a good chess piece, Jianqiu would also cooperate with her master and treat her kindly.

Seeing Jianqiu's look now, it is obvious that the Queen must be very upset after receiving the news!

An Lingrong did not take this matter to heart. Although the arrival of this child was somewhat unexpected, for her, it was only good and not bad.

What's more, this is your own child!

In her previous life, because of the Queen, although An Lingrong became pregnant, she was unable to keep the child and could not become a mother.

Living a new life, now that she is pregnant, An Lingrong must keep her child at all costs.

"Ok."

Zhen Huan saw that An Lingrong's expression was no different from usual, and she admired the psychological quality of this sister.

As they were talking, everyone had already walked into the hall.

This time the queen did not keep everyone waiting for long. When everyone entered the hall, she was already sitting on the rosewood phoenix throne that symbolized the status of the queen!

"Greetings to the Queen, may the Queen be blessed with good fortune!"

Facing the queen, everyone saluted in unison.

Because Concubine Hua was late again, there was no discordant noise during the ceremony to pay respect to the Queen this time.

"Well, no need to be polite, please take your seats!"

The Queen looked a little haggard. She waved her hand casually, then turned her gaze to An Lingrong and said with a half-smile, "Lady An, I would like to congratulate you first!"

"Miss."

When suddenly called, An Lingrong was not flustered. She just stood up again, faced the Queen, and waited quietly for her next words.

When everyone heard the Queen address An Lingrong, they were all stunned.

The Queen saw everyone's doubts and said, "The Emperor sent someone to tell me early in the morning that Concubine An felt a little unwell yesterday and was diagnosed by the imperial physician to be pregnant with a dragon descendant. The Emperor was very pleased to hear this and made her a noble lady!"

As soon as these words were spoken, there was an uproar in the hall!

At the same time, after learning about this, the concubines felt thousands of indescribable emotions in their hearts.

These emotions intertwined together, making their gazes towards An Lingrong extremely complicated!
