After killing four concubines, the queen was sentenced to death and reborn

That night, everyone thought that Xiao Xuanchen would come to Weiyang Palace, but he went to Jinhua Palace instead.

Weiyang Palace

Biluo came forward to report, "Your Majesty, His Majesty went to Jinhua Palace tonight."

"understood."

Zheng Xiyan patted Xiao Chengji's back gently to coax him to sleep. After listening, she just responded with one sentence, looking calm and composed.

After Xiao Chengji fell asleep, Zheng Xiyan returned to the bedroom, and Biluo and others helped her to sleep.

After washing up, Zheng Xiyan went to bed.

Jinhua Palace

Murong Yue was a little surprised when she learned that he was coming, and became excited after a moment. But after calming down, she began to wonder why he came to her Jinhua Palace tonight?

Today was the prince's first birthday party, shouldn't he have gone to Weiyang Palace? Why was he here? Wasn't this a slap in the face of the queen and her son?

Suddenly, she thought of something and vaguely guessed in her heart that today, the Queen and the Crown Prince had been in the limelight, especially the Crown Prince, who was praised by even the old ministers.

But Your Majesty has always been suspicious, and I'm afraid he is already dissatisfied with the Queen and the Crown Prince.

Murong Yue dressed up carefully, wearing a waist-length skirt that perfectly showed off her figure, and waited for Xiao Xuanchen's arrival.

"Your Majesty, your servant welcomes you respectfully." Murong Yue went to greet him with a smile on her face.

"Get up!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty." After giving birth to Princess Changle, Murong Yue became much fuller, especially her chest.

Xiao Xuanchen sat directly on the couch without helping her up. When he looked up at her, his eyes were hooked by her.

Murong Yue took Changle from the nurse and sat beside him, saying in a tender voice: "Your Majesty has not been here for a long time. Changle is much older now. Your Majesty, do you want to hold me? Changle misses you too."

Xiao Xuanchen's gaze then moved away from Murong Yue's chest. He looked down and saw his daughter in her arms, who was as cute as ice and snow. Thinking about how he had indeed neglected them these days, a feeling of guilt surged in his heart.

"Let me hug you." Xiao Xuanchen took Princess Changle from Murong Yue's arms.

"Yes." Murong Yue smiled.

But when Princess Changle was in Xiao Xuanchen's arms, she immediately started crying, "wawa~" big tears fell down.

This made Murong Yue very embarrassed. Princess Changle was shy about strangers, and Xiao Xuanchen hadn't been here for quite some time, so she felt very unfamiliar with him.

When Xiao Xuanchen saw her crying, his face changed and he instantly became unhappy. Murong Yue quickly hugged her daughter and in her arms, she soon stopped crying.

Murong Yue said carefully, "Your Majesty, please forgive me. I think Changle is hungry." Then she handed her to the wet nurse and ordered, "Take the princess down to feed her."

"Yes! Your Majesty the Imperial Concubine."

Xiao Xuanchen was very satisfied to see that she was so tactful. She waved her hand, and Murong Yue smiled shyly and walked over.

Xiao Xuanchen held her hand, patted it, and said in a deep voice: "I haven't visited you and your daughter for some time. From now on, I will definitely visit you more often."

"As long as Your Majesty has me and Changle in his heart, I will be very satisfied." Murong Yue replied considerately.

"This is natural. Changle is my eldest daughter. I only have this one daughter, so I will naturally love her very much." Xiao Xuanchen said it in a high-sounding manner, but it didn't seem like he really loved her.

Murong Yue smiled gently and lowered her head shyly.

Xiao Xuanchen still suspected Concubine Xu of having a miscarriage, but he didn't want her to die yet, nor did he want Changle to lose her mother at such a young age. Besides, she was still useful to him, so he kept her.

Xiao Xuanchen exerted force on his hands and pulled her into his arms. He pinched her chin and said with interest, "Give me another child. I want to have a son with you."

When Murong Yue heard this, the expression on her face froze. Looking at his unfathomable eyes, she couldn't tell for a moment whether he was sincere or just pretending.

Xiao Xuanchen's face changed, and he said coldly: "Why? You don't want to?"

Murong Yue quickly replied in fear and trepidation: "How could that be? Of course I am willing."

Xiao Xuanchen smiled at her, then stood up and took her to the bedroom.

That day, Zheng Xiyan went to Chonghua Palace to visit Shen Chongyuan.

Shen Chongyuan is eight months pregnant and basically does not leave Chonghua Palace.

Shen Chongyuan knew that the queen had arrived, and hurriedly got out of bed to salute. Zheng Xiyan hurriedly stopped her and said, "Don't be so polite, just lie down quickly."

"Thank you, Her Majesty, for your thoughtfulness." Shen Chongyuan looked grateful.

Cheng Baolin and Chen Baolin were also here. They had always been good friends with Shen Chongyuan and had served Xiao Xuanchen together before. To outsiders, they seemed to be sisters with a deep bond.

"Your Majesty the Queen." The two of them bowed quickly.

Zheng Xiyan glanced at the two of them and said in a deep voice, "No need to be so polite, both of you. Get up!"

"Thank you, Queen."

The maid brought a chair over, and Zheng Xiyan sat down. She asked with concern, "How have you been these days?"

Shen Chongyuan touched her belly tenderly and replied with a smile: "Thank you for your concern, Madam. I am fine."

Cheng Baolin and Chen Baolin stood aside and didn't say much. Like Shen Chongyuan, they were both relatively honest and peaceful people and never fought or competed in the palace.

"That's good. If there is anything missing, order the Eunuch Bureau to prepare it." Zheng Xiyan instructed.

"Thank you, ma'am."

"Concubine Xu's child is gone. His Majesty values ​​your baby very much. I also hope that you can give birth to a prince for His Majesty. You must not let His Majesty and me down." Zheng Xiyan said in a deep voice.

The imperial physician told Concubine Xu that this baby was most likely a prince, but she couldn't guarantee anything until the time was right.

"Yes!"

Zheng Xiyan stayed in Chonghua Palace for a while and left soon. In fact, she had already known that there was a great possibility that Concubine Xu's baby would be a prince.

Whether he was a prince or a princess, it was of no importance to her.

After all, the children are innocent, and she would not touch anyone's children. But if any of them had improper thoughts and wanted to get something that did not belong to them, then don't blame her for being cruel.

After she left, Cheng Baolin and Chen Baolin sat on the bed. Cheng Baolin was a little worried, "Sister, what does the Queen mean by this? Does she really hope that you will give birth to a prince?"

Shen Chongyuan replied: "The Queen is your Majesty's legal wife, so she naturally hopes that your Majesty will have many children."

"Really?" Chen Baolin asked.

"She is the queen, and her son is the crown prince. She is of noble status. No matter how many princes Your Majesty has, they are not as good as the crown prince. We are of humble origins. Even if we give birth to a prince, we don't have the support of our family. We can't pose the slightest threat to the queen. The queen is so smart that she doesn't even bother to compete with us."
