A concubine's daughter is reborn and I want to enter the palace!

Yanxi Palace

Concubine Qing flipped through the clan records of other princes’ routine hundred-day banquets, trying to gain some inspiration from them.

"What do you think, Madam?" Concubine Shen asked in a low voice.

"It's good, but it's nothing new." Concubine Qing closed the clan record and said

After hearing this, Concubine Shen said, "This is the first time that Your Majesty is in charge of such a major event. You must be creative to avoid mistakes."

"That's exactly what you said, but I really don't have any good ideas right now." Concubine Qing sighed.

"Does my sister have any new ideas?"

Concubine Shen replied helplessly, "Ordinary stringed instruments are a bit too vulgar. As for the singing of birds and dancing of swallows, everyone in the palace is tired of them. There is really no better way."

"Perhaps we can make some changes to the food. After all, eating is a big part of a banquet. How about abandoning the banquets of the past and adding a few new dishes, Madam?"

After hearing this, Concubine Qing nodded and said, "That's fine. Besides that, I can send someone to find out what dishes everyone likes. Then, I can put a dish they like on everyone's table. This way, everyone's dishes will be slightly different."

"That's a great idea, Madam!" Concubine Shen agreed.

"Your Majesty can also work harder on the wives of officials. For example, for the older ones, you can serve some mild and nourishing dishes, and for those who are in their prime, you can serve some beauty dishes. For the young princes, you can put some sweets that children like..."

Concubine Qing smiled and said, "Okay, okay, this way, I can solve the problem of my banquet!"

Concubine Shen shared Concubine Qing's worries and smiled too.

Suddenly, Concubine Qing frowned again and said, "The problem with the banquet has been solved. What else should be done at the banquet? What kind of unique performance should be performed at the banquet?"

After hearing this, Shen Guiren was also in a dilemma. "This..."

"If... Noble Lady Yu was also here, maybe she would have some new ideas!" Concubine Qing talked about Song Qingwan.

"Then why don't you send someone to call Concubine Yu over and ask her to come and help you think of some ideas." Concubine Shen said

Concubine Qing shook her head and said, "It's still not necessary. Concubine Yu has been pregnant for more than seven months and is almost eight months."

Concubine Shen complained, "You are very considerate, it's only seven months. What's the big deal? Besides, I heard that you even asked someone to arrange a sedan chair for her, so it won't be a burden to Concubine Yu!"

Concubine Qing insisted, "No, no, although Concubine Yu is almost eight months pregnant this month, her belly feels different from the usual seven-month pregnancy. It looks like she is almost nine months pregnant!" At this point, Concubine Qing deliberately exaggerated.

"Besides, the Emperor has exempted her from the morning and evening visits these days, so how can I trouble her again..."

Concubine Shen thought to herself, no wonder Song Qingwan hasn't been seen during this period of time, it seems that the emperor has given her a special treatment, and there are still more than two months before the birth of the child! So the morning and evening visits are exempted!

"Your Majesty, are you saying, Song, Concubine Bu Yu's belly looks like it's almost nine months pregnant?" Concubine Shen asked

Concubine Qing replied, "Yes, that's why I don't want to bother her. Let her rest well. It would be bad if something goes wrong."

Concubine Shen was puzzled and asked, "Concubine Yu is thin, but why is her belly so big? It shouldn't be like this. Is there something fishy going on?"

Concubine Qing directly denied it, "Sister, you are overthinking. There is nothing fishy going on. It's just that her appetite has increased and she ate a little more!"

Concubine Qing mentioned the time when Zuo Wenyi was pregnant again, "Didn't Concubine Kang's belly also get big back then? This is normal."

Concubine Shen said unwillingly, "But Concubine Kang didn't just have a big belly, Your Majesty. She was two times fatter. And a few days ago, I saw that Concubine Yu didn't gain much weight anywhere else!"

Seeing that Concubine Shen had fallen for it, Concubine Qing continued, "I don't know about that either. Concubine Yu is fine. It's not like there's something wrong with the dragon fetus."

"The Emperor has specially arranged for Chen, the youngest and most promising doctor in the Imperial Hospital, to take care of Concubine Yu's baby. I'm sure everything will be fine. Concubine Shen, don't worry~"

Seeing Concubine Qing said so, Concubine Shen suppressed her doubts and said, "Yes, your Majesty is right. With a skilled doctor like Imperial Doctor Chen to take care of the dragon fetus, nothing will happen to her."

Concubine Qing nodded and said, "Yes."

Then he said, "Mrs. Shen, your idea is very good. On the day of the Hundred Days Banquet, you can help me with the arrangements. If you can really gain the appreciation of the Emperor, the Empress Dowager, and all the clan members, you will also have a share of the credit!"

Concubine Shen smiled and said, "Okay, I am overjoyed~"

The two chatted for a while, and then a palace servant came to ask Concubine Qing to do something, so Concubine Shen took the initiative to leave.

After Concubine Shen returned to Xiwu Palace, the more she thought about it, the more she felt that something was not right and there must be something fishy going on.

I kept recalling what Concubine Qing said in my mind: "It's less than eight months pregnant, but it feels like it's almost nine months pregnant", "There will be no problem with the dragon fetus", "There is the best imperial physician who is taking care of her."

Something is wrong! It must be wrong! There must be something wrong with Song Qingwan's dragon fetus, otherwise why would the emperor arrange the best imperial physician for her!

Song Qingwan's belly is bigger than usual? Could it be that Song Qingwan is pregnant with a giant baby? The emperor clearly knows about this, but because he loves Song Qingwan very much, he keeps it to himself!

Doctor Chen was appointed by the Emperor, so nothing can be learned from him! But what if another doctor diagnosed Song Qingwan's pulse? Would the truth behind her hiding the truth come to light?

"Yes!" Concubine Shen couldn't help but say it out loud as she thought about it.

This frightened Zhenzhu who was standing by. Zhenzhu asked in surprise, "What happened to the young lady? Why did you become so weird after returning from the Yanxi Palace?"

Concubine Shen curled her lips and smiled, "Nothing, I just found something interesting."

Pearl asked curiously, "What interesting thing is this? My lady, can you tell me?"

Shen Guiren said mysteriously, "I won't tell you yet. I'll tell you after it's done!"

Pearl said, "Okay."

Shen Guiren had a guess in his mind, and the next step was to prepare how to expose Song Qingwan!

After racking her brains, Concubine Shen came up with an idea. There were so many guests at the Fifth Prince's Hundred Days Banquet, so it would be best to expose her on that day!

And it just so happened that just now in the Yanx Palace, the overwhelmed Concubine Qing asked him to help her prepare for the banquet. This gave him the perfect opportunity to take action!

It really takes no effort at all!

Concubine Shen called her maid and said, "Pearl, come here. I have something for you to do."
