The next day, when Yi Xin was called by Sang'er, Yinzhen had already gone to court.

Seeing that it was almost time to pay respects, she hurriedly asked Sonny to help her get dressed. She had felt refreshed last night, but today she felt sore all over.

As smart as Yi Xin was, she took out a pain-free pill for childbirth from the system space. After taking it, she instantly felt refreshed.

After returning to the Yanx Palace, she washed and dressed again, and then rushed to the Jingren Palace to pay her respects.

Since the audience with the emperor, newlyweds who have not slept with the emperor do not need to go to Jingren Palace to pay their respects. Yi Xin happily slept until she woke up naturally every day for the first few days.

After this sleepover, it will be hard to have such good days again.

When Yi Xin arrived, everyone was there except Concubine Hua.

"Concubine, please give your regards to the Queen."

"Sister, you worked hard in bed last night. Get up quickly."

The Queen smiled and asked Yi Xin to stand up, then said to Jiang Fuhai beside her, "Let's get started."

Jiang Fuhai announced loudly: "Noble Lady Fucha pays respect to the Empress!"

Yi Xin immediately knelt down and performed the ritual of three kneelings and nine kowtows to the Queen. She then took a peony from Jianqiu's hand and pinned it on the Queen's hairpin. All newlyweds who were serving the Queen for the first time had to do the same.

After the ceremony, Concubine Hua finally arrived.

"Has Noble Lady Fucha finished her ceremony?"

Hua Fei walked up to the Queen as she spoke, bowed slightly, and without waiting for the Queen to call her, she sat down facing Yi Xin.

"Noble Lady Fucha is so lucky that the emperor picked your name as the second one among the newcomers. It's just a pity that although you are of the most noble status, others took the lead and you were ranked last."

Yi Xin knew that Concubine Hua was trying to sow discord between them. If the original owner didn't need Concubine Hua's instigation, she would have resented Shen Meiyu long ago. However, Yi Xin didn't buy it.

"Your Majesty can turn over whoever's name you like, I dare not interfere."

Hua Fei's face immediately turned cold. "I thought that among the newcomers, only Wan Changzai of Sui Yuxuan was good at talking. I didn't expect that Fu Cha Guiren, who is not very conspicuous, is also so good at talking."

"Thank you for the compliment, Madam Hua Fei. I am ashamed to accept it."

"you--"

The original owner was afraid of the domineering Concubine Hua, but she was not.

Behind Yi Xin is the Fucha clan, and she is the destined queen. If the original owner had not behaved so cowardly in her previous life, Concubine Hua would not have dared to call the original owner to Yikun Palace to bully her.

Seeing the two of them arguing, the queen started to play the good guy again.

"Okay, Concubine Hua, there's nothing wrong with what Noble Lady Fucha said. Besides, the first name the Emperor wanted to turn over wasn't Noble Lady Shen's."

At this point, the Queen looked at Shen Meizhuang, whose face began to turn pale, and said, "Noble Lady Shen, you and Concubine Wan are good sisters. Please visit her often on behalf of the Emperor and ask her to take good care of her. The Emperor still cares about her."

Wonderful!

I have to say it’s really wonderful!

After Shen Meizhuang had slept with the emperor for three consecutive days, she almost became the first among the newcomers. But now she was told that the reason why she was liked by Yinzhen was because Zhen Huan was sick. If Shen Meizhuang was a suspicious person, she would be instigated by the queen to feel resentment towards Zhen Huan.

But the Queen didn't know that although Shen Meizhuang would be sad, under the strong influence of the plot, no matter how nice Shen Meizhuang said, such as she was afraid of bringing trouble to her family, in Shen Meizhuang's heart, neither the family honor nor her life was as important as Zhen Huan.

Otherwise, she wouldn't have played tricks with Zhen Huan in the palace, and she wouldn't have drugged Princess Wen Yi in order to pass on a message to Zhen Huan in Ganlu Temple. She wouldn't have volunteered to drug the chief envoy of the Imperial Observatory just because of her words after Zhen Huan returned to the palace.

Each of these things is not a small crime.

When she did these things, she never thought about her family.

In fact, the Queen's words were not only intended to sow discord between Zhen Huan and Shen Meizhuang, but also Yi Xin.

After all, if Shen Meizhuang was the first to sleep with the emperor, she would be the second, and although she might be dissatisfied, she would not do anything. But now the queen told her that she was actually the third, but it was only because Zhen Huan was sick that she could sleep with the emperor so soon.

Yi Xin guessed that the Queen did this because she was afraid that she would form a group with Zhen Huan and the others.

The Queen should know that Shen Meiyu and An Lingrong go to Suiyuxuan every day. Although the three of them are newcomers, if all three of them are favored, they will form a force in the future.

The Queen wanted the newcomer to share Hua Fei's favor, not to have another "Hua Fei" come after Hua Fei was dethroned.

In this case, Yi Xin, a noble lady with a good family background, cannot stand on the side of Zhen Huan and the others. Otherwise, if the four of them join forces, what will happen?

Yi Xin also slept with the emperor for three consecutive days, just like Shen Meizhuang, so Shen Meizhuang didn't seem to be anything special.

On the last day of Yi Xin's service to the emperor, she thoughtfully poured Yinzhen a cup of tea, of course, the kind with added ingredients.

Yi Xin gave him a colorless and odorless contraceptive pill. The effectiveness of the contraceptive pill can be set to a minimum of 1 month and a maximum of 20 years. Yi Xin directly asked Tongzi to set the effectiveness to 20 years. During these 20 years, unless a woman takes the system's fertility pill, he can forget about having children.

Later, after Borjigit served Yinzhen in bed once, she was granted special permission by Yinzhen to not go to Jingren Palace to pay her respects. From then on, she lived quietly in her Zhongcui Palace as a mascot.

It was November, and the newlyweds had been in the palace for more than a month. Among the newlyweds, Yi Xin and Shen Meizhuang had slept with the most people.

As for An Lingrong, Yinzhen didn't even think of her.

Originally everyone thought that Yi Xin and Shen Meiyu were equally favored, but who would have thought that Yinzhen would make an exception and allow Shen Meiyu, a noble lady, to learn how to handle palace affairs, and because she liked chrysanthemums, he personally named her residence Cunju Hall.

The palace affairs are now jointly managed by the Queen and Concubine Hua. The two of them already disliked each other, and now there's Shen Meizhuang to deal with.

Yinzhen thought he was doing this for the queen's own good, but the queen thought Yinzhen was trying to disperse her power.

She first asked Jianqiu to visit Zhen Huan and said some provocative words. Unfortunately, Zhen Huan was too "weak" and could not serve her in the emperor's bedchamber with a name card, so she could not deal with Shen Meiyu.

When the first plan failed, the Queen designed another plan to let Hua Fei see the green chrysanthemum that Yinzhen specially gave to Shen Meiyu. Hua Fei thought it was for her, but later she heard from the eunuchs in the flower room that it was sent to Cunju Hall. She was so angry that she almost bit her teeth off. She went back and had all the chrysanthemums in Yikun Palace moved out, and ordered that from then on chrysanthemums should not appear in Yikun Palace. It can be seen that she hated Shen Meiyu.

So a few days later, they sent a young eunuch to pretend that he accidentally spilled water on Shen Meizhuang on the road she had to take to pay her respects. Even though she quickly ran back to change her clothes, she was still late for her greetings.

Concubine Hua usually arrives last when paying respects, but today she arrives so early. Anyone with a brain can see that Shen Meizhuang's lateness was her plan, but no one exposed it.

After watching the show, Yi Xin strolled back to the Yanxi Palace.

On this day in the drama, after Hua Fei returned, she looked at the records of the Jingshifang. After seeing the number of times she had served the emperor in the bedchamber, she became jealous, so she sent someone to invite her over. Under the pretext of teaching her to serve Yinzhen, she asked her to grind ink for two hours.

In this life, Yi Xin handles Hua Fei with ease and is never afraid of her. If Hua Fei had any brains, she would not make things difficult for her openly like in the drama. She would probably let Concubine Cao give her advice.

Yi Xin touched her belly and calculated that the baby should be one and a half months old. Some people still have their periods as usual in the early stages of pregnancy, so Lian Qiao and Sang'er never doubted whether she was pregnant.

And last time when checking Ping'an's pulse, Yi Xin avoided it by saying that she was busy going to the Yangxin Palace.

She can't keep hiding like this. Her belly will get bigger sooner or later, so she needs to prepare for some things early.

While Sang'er was in the imperial kitchen, Yi Xin stretched out her hand, placed it on the table, and said to Lian Qiao, "Lian Qiao, come here and check my pulse."

Lian Qiao thought Yi Xin was feeling unwell, so he quickly put his hand on her and began to examine her seriously with a frown.

As she examined him, her eyes suddenly lit up and she said excitedly, "My young master, you——"

"Shh!" Yi Xin quickly stopped her from talking.

"Speak softly. It's hard to raise children in the palace. Let's keep this pregnancy a secret for now. Although you are a good doctor, we still need to have a doctor we can trust in the Imperial Hospital. Otherwise, if I am assigned a doctor whose identity is unknown, that would be bad."

Lian Qiao was originally happy to have a young master, but after hearing what Yi Xin said, she regained her senses instantly. After thinking for a while, she said, "If we want to win over the imperial physician, I'm afraid we have to rely on our family. Otherwise, we are in the deep palace and out of reach. We won't even know if the imperial physician has been bribed."

Yi Xin nodded. This was what she wanted to say.

"I only told you this. Sonny is a man who shows his emotions on his face. Don't let her know."

"Yes! I understand!" Lian Qiao was very happy. The young master only told her, which meant that she trusted her the most.

She used to worry about what to do if the young lady didn’t value her, but now that the young lady has begun to trust her, she believes that the young lady will value her in the future!
