Noble Lady Fucha is pregnant!

"Sister An, could you have made a wrong diagnosis?" Noble Lady Fucha has been feeling dizzy and nauseous since she came out of Qingliang Palace this afternoon. She was worried that she had been ambushed like Xia Dongchun without knowing it, so she wanted An Lingrong to help her check it out. As a result, she got some shocking good news.

An Lingrong first congratulated her with a look of joy: "Sister Fucha, it is absolutely true that you are almost two months pregnant." Then she complained coquettishly:

"But how could Sister Fucha be so careless? What if something goes wrong?"

When Noble Lady Fucha heard the affirmative answer, great joy instantly surged onto her face. She gently placed her hand on her belly and murmured, "My menstruation has never been very regular, and I tend to feel sleepy and eat less in the summer, so I didn't think about it."

An Lingrong really liked her, but at the same time she was worried. In her previous life, when Noble Concubine Fucha was less than three months pregnant, she became the knife in the Queen's hand and used the spices she prepared to make Songzi crazy, causing Noble Concubine Fucha to be knocked to the ground by Songzi, causing her to have a miscarriage. Poor Noble Concubine Fucha always thought that Songzi's pounce on her was an accident.

"Sister Fucha, do you want to report to the emperor now?"

Noble Lady Fucha was still immersed in the joy of becoming a mother. She was stunned when she heard the words and looked at An Lingrong in confusion.

An Lingrong took her hand and said softly, "Sister Fucha has also seen it. There are waves in the palace! Lingrong thought it would not be too late to tell the emperor after Sister Fucha's pregnancy is stable."

After An Lingrong finished speaking, Noble Lady Fucha fell into deep thought. She thought of Princess Wen Yi's unexplained crying at night and her accidental eating of cassava flour. Although An Lingrong didn't say anything to her, she had guessed one thing: the emperor's daughters dared to use them as tools to compete for favors and scheme against each other.

There is also the matter of Shen Meizhuang, which is also full of weirdness. How powerful she was before, but how miserable she was when she was punished by the emperor.

Limelight?

Finally, Noble Lady Fucha spoke slowly: "Sister An, are you worried that I will be in the spotlight and thus cause them to harbor resentment and plot against me?"

An Lingrong nodded gently: "Sister Fucha, you can see the current situation. Concubine Wan is deeply loved by the emperor and has the support of the queen, while Concubine Hua has a strong foundation. The two of them cannot tolerate each other. I am afraid there will be more twists and turns. We just want to live a stable life. Why bother to be the first one to stand out?"

Noble Lady Fucha thought about her words carefully again. She entered the palace with the hope of her family. It would be great if she could be favored and give birth to an heir, but if she lost her life because of palace strife, it would be a loss. Finally, she made a decision: "I will listen to Sister An, but I am worried about the instability of the fetus. How can I get the medicine to maintain the fetus?"

An Lingrong smiled gently and said, "Sister Fucha, medicine is three-quarters poison. Your mother is strong and the fetus is stable now. There is no need to use medicine to protect the fetus. If you are worried, I will come over every day to make medicinal food that is beneficial to the growth of the fetus."

Noble Lady Fucha was extremely confident in An Lingrong, and finally felt relieved after receiving her promise. She said, "That's great. Tell others that I have no appetite due to the heat, and you can come and comfort me and keep me company."

An Lingrong nodded in agreement, and then gave detailed instructions to Sang'er and Rendong in the room, and left only after making sure that nothing was missed.

The next day, news of the great victory in the northwest spread from the front court to the harem.

In the afternoon, Concubine Cao used a dish of lotus seeds to persuade the emperor to issue an order to bring Wen Yi back to her side.

At night, the emperor stayed at Concubine Hua's place.

Hua Fei was worried about gains and losses. The Wen Yi incident ended with the death of Tangzi, the imperial kitchen worker. Although the emperor did not say anything to her, Hua Fei felt that the emperor had noticed something and that he came here only because he cared about his brother's military exploits for the royal family. The confused expression on her face was naturally seen by the emperor, who asked her in a low voice, "What are you thinking about?"

Hua Fei frowned slightly, and asked with a look of resentment and worry, "Why did the emperor come here today?"

The emperor looked at her thoughtfully and said half-jokingly, "Then where do you want me to go?"

Hua Fei felt bitter in her heart. She still remembered the humiliation of the Emperor abandoning her in the middle of the night to go to Zhen Huan on the night of the Qixi Festival. She said in a slightly aggressive tone, "Your Majesty is always thinking about Concubine Wan. I am crude and cannot compare to Concubine Wan's knowledge and taste, who can seduce your Majesty's soul."

The emperor laughed after hearing this, then he put away his smile and took Hua Fei's hands and asked solemnly: "You are being petty again, aren't you? I have been married to you for many years, don't you know how I treat you?"

Hua Fei was shocked by the word "husband and wife" in the emperor's words. She repeated the two words carefully in her mouth, and then was wrapped up in this unique friendship. She no longer remembered the doubts in her heart and the dissatisfaction with the emperor's coldness for many days. She said very charmingly: "The emperor treats me very well, but I have to say that you must not think about other people when you are here, otherwise Shi Lan will not let you in."

The emperor was amused by her little temper again. He liked her unrestrained and lively appearance. However, the feelings of an emperor were always mixed with calculations, and he was no exception. All he could do was make some verbal promises that would not hurt the foundation.

On the second day, the emperor went to Bitong Academy for lunch as he had done in the previous few days.

During the banquet, Zhen Huan looked thoughtfully at Huanbi, who was dressed particularly brightly. She had discovered in the past few days that Huanbi became particularly smart whenever the emperor came.

The emperor still had something to discuss with Zhen Huan. Seeing Huanbi standing in front of him without any tact, he said coldly, "You are so nice to the servants."

Zhen Huan knew that the emperor was angry with Huanbi, so she quickly said, "I just think they have to work hard all day and it's very hard. Huanbi, you go down first."

The word "servant" deeply hurt Huanbi's sensitive and arrogant heart. She retreated in tears with grievance, turned around and ran out of Bitong Academy.

When Zhen Huan heard that the Emperor wanted to reinstate Concubine Hua to assist in the management of the six palaces, she panicked. This would mean she would not be able to complete the tasks assigned by the Queen. She was already struggling alone, and if she lost the Queen's support, she would have a harder time in the palace. So she slowly spoke:

"Your Majesty, in my humble opinion, it is precisely because General Nian has just made military achievements that this is not the best time to restore Concubine Hua's power to assist in managing the six palaces. People who know that Your Majesty is rewarding meritorious officials, but those who don't know that Your Majesty relies on the talents of the Nian family to win battles, so he wants to win over Concubine Hua. Another thing is that General Nian has already made great contributions. If Concubine Hua is given power in the palace again, I am afraid that General Nian will be so happy that he will forget himself."

Zhen Huan slowly told the emperor what she was thinking. After listening, the emperor just drank his porridge slowly without saying a word.

Over the past few days, the Emperor had been used to chatting with Zhen Huan like an ordinary couple during meals. At this moment, Zhen Huan did not realize that there was anything wrong with what she had just said. Seeing that the Emperor did not speak, she thought that he was thinking again, and continued, "Besides, the Empress is the mother of the country, and it is legitimate for her to manage the six palaces. I think that Concubine Hua will not have any objection."

The emperor slowly put down the bowl of porridge, looked at her deeply, and then said, "As expected, you are very thoughtful. I will do as you say."

After the emperor left, Zhen Huan slowly started to think about it.

"Jinxi, we have to think of a way to once and for all cut off Concubine Hua's right to assist in managing the six palaces."
