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

"What Concubine Rong said is right. Concubine Xian is blessed, and the Second Prince is equally blessed." Zheng Xiyan raised her eyebrows and looked at her with a smile.

Murong Yue was even more upset when she heard this, and said sarcastically, "Yes! The Queen is right. Now His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has a companion. The Second Prince is about the same age as His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. With the Second Prince accompanying him, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince won't be bored anymore."

Zheng Xiyan knew that she was making things difficult for herself, thinking that this would be enough to discourage her? "What Concubine Rong said is right, but it's also wrong. In the future, Ji'er will not only have the Second Prince to accompany her, but also Changle, Xi Zhaoyi and Shen Zhaorong's children. They will all be Ji'er's playmates. With brothers and sisters to accompany her, Ji'er will definitely be happy."

Concubine Rong was speechless. She took a deep breath and forced herself to keep a straight face. “Yes, the Queen is right.”

Zheng Xiyan then said to Xiao Xuanchen: "Your Majesty! I will go in and see Concubine Xian first."

"Well, go ahead!" When Xiao Xuanchen heard what she had just said, the expression on his face was no longer as happy as before.

The delivery room was filthy, and Xiao Xuanchen didn't want to set foot in it.

Biluo helped Zheng Xiyan into the delivery room. Concubine Xian was exhausted and sweating profusely. When she saw Zheng Xiyan, she quickly propped herself up and said weakly, "Empress."

"Lie down quickly, lie down quickly." Zheng Xiyan walked forward and held her down.

"You just gave birth to a baby and are still weak, so don't be so polite." Zheng Xiyan patted her hands.

"Empress, how is my child?" Concubine Xian already knew that she had given birth to a prince, but the midwife washed and wrapped the child and took him out directly to show His Majesty. She has not been able to see her own child until now.

"Everything is fine with the child. You have given birth to a prince for His Majesty. His Majesty is very happy and has issued an edict to confer you the title of Virtuous Consort." Zheng Xiyan said with a smile.

When she heard the word "Xian Fei", her expression was one of surprise and joy. She had never thought that one day she would be one of the four concubines. "Xian Fei?"

"Your Majesty has great affection for you, and you have not let him down. You have contributed greatly to the birth of the Second Prince, so you are worthy of the position of the Virtuous Consort."

When Concubine Xian heard this, she was very excited and choked up as she said, "Thank you, Your Majesty, and thank you, Your Majesty."

"The person you should thank the most is yourself. Take good care of yourself and don't think too much about anything else." Zheng Xiyan said.

"Yes!"

Zheng Xiyan then left the delivery room. After walking out of the delivery room, she saw Xiao Xuanchen still holding the second prince, and she was extremely surprised.

The concubines all had very interesting expressions on their faces, they wished that the prince Xiao Xuanchen was holding at this moment was born to them.

Murong Yue had been staring at the Second Prince until her eyes almost popped out. Now she was regretting it so much that she should have killed her child as well.

Now that she has given birth to a prince, her position is threatened. She really regrets it.

Zheng Xiyan sneered in her heart. It was really difficult for them. They had to suppress their unhappiness, put on a forced smile, and say some hypocritical words.

Zheng Xiyan walked up to Xiao Xuanchen and said, "Your Majesty, Concubine Xian is fine, but she is a little tired. She wants to see the Second Prince. Let the midwife carry him in so that Concubine Xian can see him!"

"Okay! The Queen is right. We should let Concubine Xian meet him." Xiao Xuanchen looked up and said.

Xiao Xuanchen then handed the second prince to the midwife. The midwife took the second prince, performed the greetings, and went into the delivery room.

"You've been guarding for the whole morning and you're all tired. You can all go back!" Zheng Xiyan looked at them.

"Yes! I'll take my leave." They were so hungry that their stomachs were sticking to their backs. After the greetings, they all left.

Zheng Xiyan said to Xiao Xuanchen again: "Your Majesty, I will take care of it here, you can go back to the Purple Palace to handle government affairs!"

"Okay, thank you, Queen." Xiao Xuanchen said in a deep voice, and his guilt towards her actually deepened a little bit.

"This is what I should do." Zheng Xiyan looked considerate and generous.

Murong Yue came over quickly, with a face full of courtesy, "Your Majesty, you have waited for so long, it is time to eat. I have prepared your favorite meals in the palace. Your Majesty has not seen Changle for a few days, and Changle misses your Majesty very much. Why don't you come back to Jinhua Palace with me to have dinner!"

Xiao Xuanchen's expression was very solemn. He directly rejected her and said, "I'm a little tired. I'll go back to Zichen Palace first. I will visit you and your daughter another day." After that, Xiao Xuanchen left.

Murong Yue didn't expect Xiao Xuanchen to reject her, and her expression was a little embarrassed. "Yes, I will send you off, Your Majesty!"

Zheng Xiyan sneered. She was also tired and hungry. After sitting down, she ordered, "The virtuous concubine has just given birth and is too tired. Go prepare a bowl of ginseng soup."

"Yes!"

Seeing that Murong Yue was reluctant to leave, Zheng Xiyan asked, "Is there anything else that Concubine Rong needs?"

"The Queen is truly worthy of being the Queen. Concubine Xian gave birth to the second prince, and now she is one of the four concubines. How can the Queen remain so calm?" Murong Yue said in a cold voice. She just didn't believe that she, Zheng Xiyan, was so magnanimous and not afraid of Concubine Xian and her son at all.

Zheng Xiyan sneered, "What else? Like you, Concubine Rong, you have lost your sense of propriety and manners?"

Murong Yue looked disdainful, thinking that she was extremely hypocritical. "The Queen is really good at pretending. She is so hypocritical."

"Hypocritical? Yes, I admit that I am hypocritical. What about you? You know exactly how the dragon fetus in Concubine Xu's belly disappeared. Do you think His Majesty can't guess what you did? He just doesn't want to expose you."

"Your Majesty, do you have any evidence to support your accusation against me?" Murong Yue was a little anxious.

"Evidence? Do you want it?" Zheng Xiyan looked at her subtly.

Murong Yue was completely upset and panicked, "If Your Majesty really had it, would I still be standing here now?"

"I have things to do in the palace, so I'll take my leave first." Murong Yue bowed and fled.

After Murong Yue left, the hall finally became quiet.

Cheng Baolin and Chen Baolin both lived in Chonghua Palace. They had already gone to the delivery room and were looking after the Second Prince with Concubine Xian.

"Congratulations, sister. Now all the hardship has finally paid off." Cheng Baolin was really happy for her.

"Yes! His Majesty promoted my sister to the title of Virtuous Consort. From now on, my sister won't have to look at anyone's face anymore." Chen Baolin said enviously.

The virtuous concubine was very happy when she saw her son in the cradle beside her. With him, she had a support in this palace.

Biluo said, "My queen, you didn't even have breakfast, why don't we go back to Weiyang Palace first! Nothing will happen here."

"Wait a moment!" Zheng Xiyan had to see that everything was ready, otherwise she would not feel at ease.

"Yes!"

Zheng Xiyan did not leave Chonghua Palace until Concubine Xian drank the ginseng soup and fell asleep.

Shoukang Palace

Nanny Yu came in and announced the good news, "The Empress Dowager is very happy. Shen Chongyuan gave birth to the second prince. His Majesty has promoted Shen Chongyuan to the title of Consort Xian."

"Virtuous Concubine?" The Empress Dowager stopped what she was doing and her expression changed slightly.

"Exactly!"

"This kind of promotion beyond one's rank breaks the rules, and the Queen didn't say anything?" asked the Queen Mother.

"What can the Empress say? His Majesty is very happy, and the Empress certainly doesn't want to offend His Majesty, especially in front of so many concubines."
