"So, is An Lingrong really pregnant? Or..."

In Yiku Palace, Concubine Hua was sitting on a small kang with her back against a soft pillow. Sitting beside her were Concubine Li, Noble Lady Cao, and Noble Lady Fucha.

At the previous morning meeting in Jingren Palace, Concubine Hua did not attend, but used the excuse that she was not feeling well and simply did not go.

The queen was used to this, so naturally she didn't have any unexpected reaction.

Under normal circumstances, they might have argued over the matter to see who would give in.

But the queen at that time was also stunned by the "good news" that An Lingrong suddenly announced that she was pregnant!

At that time, her mind was full of thoughts about An Lingrong, so how could she have any extra energy to care about Concubine Hua?

Because of this, after Lipin and the others left Jingren Palace, they immediately rushed to Huafei's Yiku Palace, intending to convey this first-hand information to Huafei as soon as possible.

Just like the Queen, Concubine Hua was stunned for a long while when she heard this.

After finally digesting this news, Concubine Hua asked about Cao Qinmo.

Because the plan to let Liu Bin give out the prescription so that Shen Meizhuang would mistakenly believe that she was pregnant was all planned by Cao Qinmo.

Apart from that, Cao Qinmo is indeed very scheming. When it comes to matters like this, she has the ability to strategize that others cannot match!

On the other hand, although Noble Lady Fucha had just joined Concubine Hua's camp, she was personally informed of the ins and outs of the matter by Concubine Hua early on.

After hearing the truth, Noble Lady Fucha knew that she had boarded the wrong ship!

It's a pity that she has already heard it. If she wants to go back on her word now, not to mention others, Concubine Hua will definitely be the first one who won't let her go!

So, at this time, Noble Lady Fucha also appeared here, and there was no expression of surprise on her face.

"Well, wait a moment, your majesty. I will analyze it right away..."

In response to the question from Concubine Hua, Cao Qinmo did not rush to give an answer immediately, but asked Concubine Hua not to rush her.

"Ah."

Concubine Hua also knew Cao Qinmo's talent in this area, so she had no intention of blaming her.

After a while, Cao Qinmo's forehead was already covered with sweat. She said to Concubine Hua carefully, "Madam Hua, in my humble opinion, this An Lingrong did not show the slightest nervousness or fear when facing the Queen and us. Instead, she seemed extremely confident, as if she had predicted that she would get pregnant sooner or later. So... I speculate that she may have taken the medicine that Liu Bin gave to Shen Meiyu!"

"You mean, Shen Meizhuang shared the prescription with them all?"

Concubine Hua played with the jade wheel in her hand, slowly pushing it back and forth on her face, and said, "Is Shen Meizhuang really so generous?"

Although, Concubine Hua felt that Shen Meizhuang had fallen into the trap she had set without knowing it.

But when Concubine Hua thought that Shen Meizhuang shared the "miracle medicine and secret recipe" with An Lingrong and the others even though she knew she had it, she felt that this woman was extremely stupid!

“That’s also very possible.”

Cao Qinmo smiled and said, "Shen Meizhuang doesn't know the truth. She probably still thinks that Liu Bin is loyal to her. She is also a bit smart. Even if she is 'pregnant', she won't think it's too little! Think about it carefully. These people have been of the same blood since they entered the palace. They stick together. Maybe in their hearts, they wish everyone could have a prince or princess by their side. In this way, wouldn't they be able to run rampant in the harem?"

"Sister Cao is right!"

Noble Lady Fucha has never had a sense of existence, but she is unwilling to be lonely and does not want to be just a "foil", so she speaks up to express her views at this time.

And Noble Lady Fucha’s point of view is also very simple.

She felt that what Cao Qinmo said made sense, so she voted in favor.

In response to this, Cao Qinmo smiled slightly. On the surface, he looked very humble, but a smug light flashed in his eyes.

"Forget it. If it's really because Shen Meizhuang gave her the prescription, then I really have to thank her!"

When Concubine Hua said this, she glanced at Cao Qinmo and said, "Since you are the one who did this, then you should keep a close eye on them. If Shen Meizhuang is really so generous, then Zhen Huan will probably be too soon!"

"Yes." Cao Qinmo naturally had no room for rejection of Concubine Hua's words, and nodded obediently in agreement.

"So, my lady, what are we going to do?"

Lipin has always liked to show off in front of Huafei, but her ability is not enough and she often messes things up. Huafei is well aware of this, so she usually doesn't tell Lipin to do anything.

Noble Lady Fucha had no intention of volunteering, but Concubine Li directly included her in the task. Now she could only look at Concubine Hua "respectfully" and pray in her heart that Concubine Hua would not assign her any work.

"You guys?" Concubine Hua frowned, thought about it carefully, and then shook her head, "Just stay here and be good."

Lipin was quite pretty in her early years. Hua Fei supported Lipin at that time mainly because she wanted to tie the emperor's heart firmly to her.

And back then, Concubine Li did live up to Concubine Hua's expectations and really tied the emperor to her side.

During that period, Yongzheng either went to Concubine Hua's room or went to find Concubine Li, which made the Queen extremely hateful, but there was nothing she could do.

It’s a pity that Concubine Li is now old and her appearance can no longer attract the emperor.

But she doesn't have any good brains, which means the emperor won't look for Concubine Li at all.

Concubine Hua kept her by her side not because of any old friendship, but purely because after all, Concubine Li had been promoted to the position of the head of a palace, and was one of the few senior concubines in the palace. Keeping her around at least provided a bit of manpower.

But should we really arrange for Lipin to take action?

Haha, since she was able to do good things, Concubine Hua had already asked Songzhi to burn incense to the Buddha!

As for Noble Lady Fucha...

Hua Fei's gaze lingered on Noble Lady Fucha's face for a moment, and a plan suddenly occurred to her mind, so she said, "Wait, Noble Lady Fucha, I remember that you and Concubine Chun both seemed to be from the Manchu military flag, right?"

"Yes." Noble Lady Fucha had no idea what Concubine Hua was up to, but when she asked, she nodded obediently.

"Okay, then you should find a way to build a good relationship with Chun Changzai!"

Hua Fei smiled and said, "It just so happens that you two live together in the Yanxi Palace, and I remember that the old lady, the Queen, seemed to be quite nice to Chun Changzai?"

When she said this, the concubines present suddenly felt a chill in their hearts, and they felt that an invisible undercurrent was beginning to surge!
