After Xiao Xuanchen came in, everyone bowed and said, "Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you."

"Get up!" Xiao Xuanchen said slowly, with no expression on his face.

Zheng Shuyi quickly held the third prince in her arms and walked towards him, smiling and saying, "Your Majesty, please have a look. Concubine Xi has just given birth to the third prince."

Xiao Xuanchen glanced at her with a cold expression. He still couldn't believe that Concubine Xi was pregnant with twins.

Zheng Xiyan had a meaningful smile on her lips. She thought, I wonder if he can tell that this is not his son?

But looking at his expression, I couldn't see any joy at all.

Zheng Xiyan continued, "Your Majesty, please hug him too! The Third Prince must want his father to hug him."

Xiao Xuanchen still had a dull expression and cold eyes. After hesitating for a moment, he reached out and took the child.

Shen Aoning saw everything and couldn't help but feel nervous. Her face was tense and she held her breath, not daring to even breathe.

I watched His Majesty take the child and hold him in his arms, but the expression on his face was too mysterious and there was no sign of happiness.

Xiao Xuanchen looked up at Zheng Xiyan and asked, "The other one hasn't been born yet?"

Zheng Xiyan immediately explained with a smile: "After all, they are twins. Concubine Xi just gave birth to the third prince, so she definitely doesn't have the strength to give birth again. It will really be more difficult for her."

Xiao Xuanchen was holding his breath. What was wrong with these people in the Imperial Hospital? They couldn't even diagnose twins. "What are these quacks in the Imperial Hospital doing? They didn't even notice that Concubine Xi was pregnant with twins. They are really a bunch of rubbish."

Zheng Xiyan had a fake smile on her face. It would be strange if anyone could notice that she was making up something out of nothing.

"Your Majesty, don't blame the imperial doctors. After all, twins are not a common thing, and the imperial doctors certainly didn't think about it that way." Zheng Xiyan said with a smile.

As soon as Zheng Xiyan finished speaking, Concubine Xian said, "Yes, Your Majesty! The Queen is right. Twins are indeed uncommon. The imperial doctors rely on their experience and naturally don't think too much about it. Your Majesty should not blame the imperial doctors. Besides, Your Majesty is blessed with twins, which is a good thing!"

Zheng Xiyan smiled and said, "What the virtuous concubine said is correct. Concubine Xi is pregnant with twins. This is a great joyous event. Your Majesty has no reason to be angry."

"What the Queen and Concubine Xian said makes sense." Xiao Xuanchen said in a deep voice.

Shen Aoning, who was standing aside, didn't say a word, but felt a little relieved in her heart.

Everything is going as they planned, and they hope it will continue to go smoothly.

Zheng Xiyan looked at Shen Aoning deliberately. She thought that since Xi Muyao had used this trick, Shen Aoning would not use it again.

After all, two concubines in the palace were pregnant with twins at the same time, which would inevitably arouse suspicion. Waiting until Shen Aoning gave birth would be the best time to expose them.

Moreover, it might even cause a rift between the two sisters. After all, Xi Muyao's daughter can be raised at her knees, while Shen Aoning's daughter can only be sent out of the palace, and Shen Aoning will certainly not agree.

No matter how deep the feelings between the two sisters are, it can never be deeper than the love between mother and daughter.

In this way, she might not even have to do anything herself, as the two sisters would have already fallen out with each other.

All she had to do was sit back and continue watching the show.

Xiao Xuanchen handed the child in his arms to Zheng Xiyan, and then sat down. The moment he sat down, another burst of crying came from the bedroom, "Wa wah wah ~"

"Your Majesty! Another baby is born. Congratulations, Your Majesty. Congratulations, Your Majesty."

Twins, one should be happy about it. After all, a concubine gave birth to twins, and twins are very rare in the royal family. Xiao Xuanchen still smiled.

Shen Aoning finally breathed a sigh of relief; the baby was finally born.

After a while, the midwife brought out another child. "Congratulations, Your Majesty, congratulations, Your Majesty, both mother and daughter are safe."

As soon as the midwife finished speaking, Zheng Xiyan sneered, "Look at what the midwife said. She must be too excited. How can the mother and daughter be safe? Concubine Xi gave birth to a boy and a girl for Your Majesty. The mother and the three children should be safe."

The midwife panicked and didn't know what to say. Shen Aoning came over to help and said, "Empress, the midwife may have been too tired and said something wrong."

"It is indeed tiring. She has delivered two babies for Xi Zhaoyi. She has made great contributions and should be rewarded." Zheng Xiyan said with a smile, curling the corners of her mouth.

"This is what I should do." The midwife replied quickly.

Zheng Xiyan handed the child in her arms to the wet nurse beside her, and then went with Xiao Xuanchen to visit the second princess in the midwife's arms, "Oh! The princess is so adorable, Your Majesty, look at her."

Xiao Xuanchen reached up and gently stroked the princess's face, saying, "What the queen said is very true. She is indeed very cute."

"I congratulate Your Majesty. Concubine Xi has given birth to a son and a daughter for Your Majesty. She has made a great contribution. Your Majesty must reward Concubine Xi well." Zheng Xiyan began to ask for reward for Concubine Xi. After all, the more glorious she is now, the more miserable she will be after being exposed.

"What the Queen said is right. I will issue an edict soon to establish the title of Chen Consort above the Imperial Consort and appoint Xi Zhaoyi as Chen Consort. What do you think, Queen?" Xiao Xuanchen was very happy when he had a pair of twins, a boy and a girl. This was the first pair of twins in this dynasty. It was truly a good omen and a great joy!

Zheng Xiyan smiled calmly and said, "I have no objection. This is what the Concubine Chen deserves."

In this way, Xi Muyao will be the head of the concubines in the future.

Shen Aoning was so happy that she couldn't close her mouth. They finally got their happy ending after all the hardship they had endured.

"Your Majesty! Please come in and see my sister! My sister must want to meet Your Majesty." Shen Aoning said excitedly. She couldn't wait to go in and see her sister.

Xiao Xuanchen did not refuse, "Okay!"

Zheng Xiyan accompanied Xiao Xuanchen into the bedroom. Xi Muyao was already exhausted, her face was covered in sweat, her hair was wet with sweat, and she looked very tired.

The moment he stepped into the bedroom, Xiao Xuanchen subconsciously covered his mouth and nose. The smell of blood in the bedroom had not yet dissipated.

Zheng Xiyan deliberately glanced at him and saw his disdain, "What's wrong, Your Majesty?"

"Nothing." Xiao Xuanchen said coldly.

Shen Aoning also saw his disdain and immediately felt sorry for her sister. She subconsciously held her belly. Her sister had a near-death experience during childbirth, but he didn't even bother to look at her at first. Now, he still disdained her sister like this...

"Your Majesty..." Xi Muyao shouted weakly. She really had no strength left. Everything went smoothly as she expected. Now, she finally got what she wanted.

Zheng Xiyan quickly said, "You just gave birth, don't move."
