Rebirth of Her Royal Highness the Princess
Chapter 223 Pregnancy Discomfort
"Go check who ordered this!!!" Princess Cang said with a gloomy face and gritted teeth.
"Yes." A guard took the order and left.
At the same time, in the Wisteria Courtyard, Princess Cang sat in front of the dressing table, gently combing her long hair like a waterfall, with a solemn look on her face. Suddenly, she felt a slight sound of footsteps coming from behind her, and she couldn't help but be startled.
"Who?" Princess Cang turned around suddenly, a hint of vigilance flashing in her eyes. However, when she saw who it was, a look of surprise instantly appeared on her face.
"Your Highness, why are you here?" Princess Cang said coquettishly, with a feeling of joy in her heart.
Prince Cang walked to her side with a smile, gently stroked her hair, and said softly: "I have come to see my beloved concubine." His eyes fell on the beautiful face of Princess Cang, and his eyes were full of love and pampering.
"Your Highness, you are so mean. You scared me." Princess Cang pouted and said coquettishly.
Prince Cang laughed, hugged Princess Cang in his arms, and said softly, "My dear, you are so beautiful!" There was a hint of intoxication and praise in his tone.
After hearing this, Princess Cang blushed like a ripe apple and lowered her head shyly. She felt happy in her heart, knowing that her beauty deeply attracted King Cang. The two hugged each other tightly, enjoying this sweet moment.
——The Royal Family
In Lanyuexuan, Lu Qingqing gently stroked her belly which was already seven months pregnant, frowned and said softly: "Go and ask the emperor to come, my stomach is a little uncomfortable." There was a hint of uneasiness and worry in her tone.
The maid Shanhu beside her hurried forward and asked nervously, "My lady, are you okay? Do you want me to call the imperial physician to come and see you right away?"
Lu Qingqing shook her head and said weakly: "Go and ask the emperor to come over first." Her eyes were full of expectation and hope, as if only the emperor's arrival could make her feel at ease.
Shanhu nodded and quickly replied, "Yes, I'll go right away." After that, she hurriedly left the room and went to report to the emperor.
Shanhu quickly invited the emperor to come, and the emperor walked into the room with an anxious look on his face. "My beloved, how are you?" he asked with concern.
Lu Qingqing smiled weakly, "I just feel a little uncomfortable. It may be that the baby in my belly is making a fuss."
The emperor breathed a sigh of relief, sat down beside the bed and held Lu Qingqing's hand, "Thank you for your hard work, my beloved concubine. I was just dealing with state affairs, and I came here immediately when I heard that you were not feeling well."
Lu Qingqing looked at the emperor with emotion, "Your Majesty is so kind to me."
At this time, the imperial physician also arrived. After carefully examining Lu Qingqing's pulse, he reported to the emperor: "Your Majesty, the young lady is fine, but she is just feeling uncomfortable during pregnancy. I will prescribe some pregnancy-maintaining medicine for you to take."
The emperor felt relieved after hearing this and said, "Then I'll have to trouble the imperial physician."
After the imperial physician wrote the prescription, he left the room. The emperor chatted with Lu Qingqing for a while until she felt better.
After seeing the emperor off, Lu Qingqing leaned on the bed tiredly, but she felt extremely happy in her heart. She knew that the emperor cared about her and the child, which made her more determined to protect the child.
A few days later, Lu Qingqing ran into Concubine Hua while walking in the courtyard. Concubine Hua said sarcastically, "Oh, your belly is getting bigger and bigger, congratulations." Lu Qingqing smiled and responded, "Thank you, sister."
However, Concubine Hua continued, "But it is not easy to give birth to a child in this palace, so you must be careful, sister." After saying that, she smiled triumphantly and turned away.
Lu Qingqing's heart tightened, she knew that Concubine Hua was hinting at her. But she would not be easily frightened, she decided to be more cautious and protect the safety of herself and her child.
"How many masters are there in the palace?" When Lu Qingqing asked this question, her tone was somewhat curious and expectant. She wanted to know what kind of palace life she would face in the future and who she would have to deal with.
After hearing this, Shanhu immediately replied, "In reply to your question, my lady, there are currently the Grand Empress Dowager, the Empress Dowager, several concubines dowagers, then the Empress Dowager, the Concubine Hua, the Concubine Jing, and then you, my lady." She listed a series of names in one breath, seeming to be very familiar with these people.
Lu Qingqing nodded slightly to show that she understood. However, when she heard the last sentence, she suddenly remembered something and asked, "By the way, I heard that Concubine Jing is also pregnant?"
Coral nodded and said softly, "Yes, my lady. It's been about four months." There was a hint of envy and awe in her voice.
Lu Qingqing's heart moved, and she couldn't help but sigh: "So that's how it is... It seems that the harem is really lively!" She imagined the life scenes of those masters, and an inexplicable excitement surged in her heart. At the same time, she also realized that she was about to step into an environment full of competition and challenges, and she needed to be vigilant and work hard at all times.
——Junfu
"Princess! Princess!" Chuntao ran in with an anxious look on her face, her voice a little panicked.
"Why are you making such a fuss?" Hua Xiulan frowned and looked at her with dissatisfaction.
Chun Tao panted and said, "Princess, there are some disaster victims gathered outside the city gate."
"What? Disaster victims?" Hua Xiulan stood up in surprise. "How is that possible? I haven't heard of any disaster anywhere!"
Chun Tao quickly explained, "It was the fief of the virtuous king. I heard there was a drought there, which resulted in a total crop failure. These victims all escaped from there. They said that the former King Xuan is now in charge, but he doesn't care about them."
Hua Xiulan was shocked and said, "Come on, let's go and have a look." Hua Xiulan brought Chuntao to the city gate and saw many ragged victims. They looked haggard and their eyes revealed despair and helplessness.
Hua Xiulan felt a pang of sadness in her heart. She ordered the guards to open the city gates, let the victims enter the city, and arranged shelter and food for them.
"Thank you, Princess Royal, for your great kindness!" The victims knelt down to express their gratitude.
Hua Xiulan waved her hand, "This is what I should do. Don't worry, I will report this to the emperor and ask the court to take measures to rescue you as soon as possible."
After returning to the palace, Hua Xiulan immediately wrote a memorial to the emperor, detailing the situation of the victims. She hoped that through her efforts, she could gain more assistance for the victims.
After reading the memorial, the emperor was furious and immediately summoned the administrators of the Xianwang's fiefdom to ask them why they ignored the disaster victims. They blamed each other, which made the emperor even angrier.
The emperor decided to personally visit the disaster area to understand the actual situation. In the disaster area, the emperor saw the difficult living conditions of the victims and was very sad. He immediately ordered the opening of the granaries to release grain to provide relief to the victims and exempted the disaster area from taxes.
During his inspection of the disaster area, the emperor discovered that local officials had embezzled relief funds. He was furious and ordered all the officials involved to be dismissed and investigated.
Afterwards, the emperor re-selected a group of honest and upright officials to manage the disaster area, and at the same time issued a series of relief policies to help the victims rebuild their homes.
Hua Xiulan also actively participated in disaster relief work. She organized the palace maids to sew clothes for the victims and raise food and medicine.
Thanks to everyone's joint efforts, the situation in the disaster area has gradually improved and the lives of the victims have also improved.
Hua Xiulan was praised by the emperor and loved by the people for her performance during this disaster.
