Rebirth of Her Royal Highness the Princess

"Your Majesty, Concubine Qi felt very unwell when she woke up this morning. The imperial physician was sent for a check-up and he said that she is two months pregnant." A eunuch stepped in from outside Chengqian Palace to report.

"Hahaha, great, I didn't expect that I would have an heir. Reward!" The emperor was so happy that his eyes were blind.

The news reached the Yikun Palace, where the eldest prince was also having dinner with the emperor.

"Mother, the one from Zizhu Pavilion is pregnant. I wonder if it's a prince or a princess." The eldest prince asked in a low voice.

"Come here, Concubine Qi is pregnant, the Emperor will certainly go to visit her. I cannot fall behind, so send my favorite white jade exquisite hairpin to Zizhu Pavilion."

"Mother!" said the eldest prince.

"My son, there is no need to say more. No matter who is pregnant, it cannot change your status as the eldest son. Don't worry. You are about to get married, and you should spend more time with Princess Mengya." The queen said earnestly.

"Yes, I'll take note of it!" The eldest prince seemed to have taken a reassurance pill. After all, the emperor is already in his forties. If Concubine Qi gave birth to a son, the emperor would definitely love the youngest child.

The Purple Bamboo Pavilion was silent and quiet. Concubine Qi sat at the head of the bed, and the Emperor stood beside the bed with his hands behind his back. "My beloved, please protect my child."

"Your Majesty, I obey your orders~" Concubine Qi replied shyly.

"Your Majesty, the Empress sent someone to deliver a white jade hairpin to Concubine Qi, to congratulate Your Majesty on the birth of another royal heir. Congratulations also to Concubine Qi." Eunuch Xi, the chief eunuch beside the emperor, walked into the hall and said.

"Thank you, Her Majesty." said Concubine Qi.

"Forget it, you should have a good rest. I will come to see you in the evening." After saying this, the emperor turned and left.

"My lady, you will finally make it! Once you have a little prince, you will see who dares to look down on you in the palace again." Zhiqiu, Qi Guiren's personal maid, lowered her head and said.

Concubine Qi slowly stood up and said in a deep voice, "This matter cannot be taken lightly. Tomorrow, call Dr. Li to come and see if there is anything unusual about this exquisite white jade hairpin. The queen has only one son, and the child in my belly may pose a threat to her position as crown prince."

"Yes, I obey your command!" Zhiqiu replied.

Concubine Qi thought to herself that she had been in the palace for three years and had only slept with the emperor a few times. The reason she was able to conceive the heir to the throne was entirely due to the pregnancy-maintaining medicine her mother had given her when she entered the palace.

At this time, voices came from outside the door: "The virtuous concubine is here! The virtuous concubine is here!"

Concubine Qi immediately leaned back on the bed, and when she saw the two ladies coming in, she wanted to stand up and salute again, "Sister, there is no need to be so polite. You are pregnant and you should rest well. Forget about the formalities!" Concubine Xian hurriedly stopped her.

"Thank you, sisters. Please take a seat. Zhiqiu will serve tea!" Concubine Qi hurriedly invited the two ladies to sit down.

The virtuous concubine and the virtuous concubine sat at the table and waved to the palace maids to bring up the things.

"These are the tiger-head shoes that I sewed myself. They were originally prepared for Zhaoyang's delivery, but I didn't expect that you would get pregnant first." Concubine Xian gave the tiger-head shoes to Concubine Qi.

"I don't have anything worth showing off, but this purple feather fan is pretty good. My sister, you can use it to fan yourself and help dispel some of the summer heat." said Concubine Shu.

"Thank you very much, sisters." Concubine Qi hurriedly thanked.

After chatting for a while, Concubine Xian and Concubine Shu also returned to the palace.
