Concubine Shen sent someone to the Imperial Medical Bureau to invite Doctor Tan.

Doctor Tan came in with a medicine box on his back, bowed respectfully to Lady Shen, and then asked, "I wonder if the young lady is feeling unwell?"

Concubine Shen looked at Zhenzhu and motioned for her to speak.

Zhenzhu smiled and said, "Doctor Tan, this is the case. My young lady's period has been delayed for a few days. Doctor, can you take a look and see if there is anything wrong?"

Doctor Tan immediately understood what Zhenzhu meant and speculated, "The menstrual period is delayed? The young lady might be pregnant."

After hearing this, Concubine Shen and Zhenzhu were overjoyed and looked at each other.

Concubine Shen said, "Doctor Tan, please come and take a look at me."

Pearl agreed, "Yes, yes, we still need to see the imperial physician to be assured."

After hearing this, Imperial Doctor Tan stepped forward and felt Concubine Shen's pulse through her silk scarf. His expression was extremely solemn, and he then switched to his other hand.

When Concubine Shen saw his expression, her heart suddenly tightened.

After taking the pulse, Doctor Tan stood up and congratulated her, "Congratulations, young lady! You are already more than a month pregnant."

Shen Guiren was overwhelmed with mixed feelings at once, some of which were expected, some of which were unbelievable. After all, he had been waiting for this for so long, and finally it happened.

Pearl asked, "Is it true, doctor?"

Doctor Tan stood up and said, "I have been practicing medicine for decades, and I will not be wrong in reading the pulse of pregnancy."

Pearl said to Concubine Shen in surprise, "That's great, my lady!"

Concubine Shen nodded and said to Doctor Tan, "Then is my pregnancy stable?"

Doctor Tan replied, "My lady, your pulse is stable. Don't worry. Just drink a bowl of pregnancy-maintaining medicine every day."

Concubine Shen said, "Okay, you have been the one taking care of my body. Thanks to your care, I was able to successfully conceive an heir to the throne. I will entrust this pregnancy to you, the imperial physician."

Doctor Tan bowed his head and said, "I will do my best to live up to your trust!"

Concubine Shen signaled to Zhenzhu to give a reward to Doctor Tan. Zhenzhu took out a purse which was heavy with money and handed it to Doctor Tan.

Doctor Tan said, "My lady... this... It is my duty to serve you wholeheartedly. You don't have to be so polite."

Lady Shen understood the ways of the world and said, "Just accept the escaped imperial physician. You will need Imperial Physician Tan in many places in the future! There are still ten months of pregnancy to go, and the heir will still need the care of the imperial physician after he is born. This little bit of thought is nothing."

After hearing this, Doctor Tan said, "Okay! I will go down and prepare the medicine to maintain the pregnancy for you, young lady."

Concubine Shen said, "Pearl, go and see off Doctor Tan."

Pearl: “Yes.”

After sending Doctor Chen away, Zhenzhu immediately came to take care of Concubine Shen and helped her lie down, and brought her food and drinks.

Concubine Shen smiled and said, "Okay, you don't have to do this, take a break."

Pearl said confidently, "The young lady is pregnant with the heir to the throne. If the emperor and the queen mother knew about this, they would be extremely happy and would order a large group of people to serve the young lady!"

"And the master and the mistress! The master has been hoping that the young lady could get pregnant with a dragonborn soon, and now his wish has finally come true! The master must be so happy if he knows!"

Concubine Shen stroked her belly and said, "I just found out I'm pregnant. Isn't it too hasty to announce it to the world so openly?"

"Ling Changzai and Kang Guiren of the Chengping Palace both waited until three months into their pregnancies before telling the world."

Pearl looked up and said, "How can they be compared with my lady! My lady is the general's legitimate daughter! They are nothing."

"They all come from humble backgrounds, they are not presentable, and they have to hide when they are pregnant, for fear that others will harm them in the first three months!"

"But my lady is different from them. Even if this is made public, if anyone dares to touch a hair of my lady or the heir, the general will lead his army to destroy her mansion!"

When Concubine Shen heard this, she was amused. But it was also true that she was the only one who could harm others. Who would dare to harm her? She had the General of the Cavalry behind her.

"Okay, when Doctor Tan comes again tomorrow, let him tell the emperor."

Pearl: "Hehe, ok!"

Yanxi Palace

Xiao Fuzi came over suddenly.

Concubine Qing asked, "Why did you suddenly come here at this time? What's the matter with the emperor?"

Xiao Fuzi smiled and said, "Greetings to Concubine Qing. It's a great joy to reply to Her Majesty. A great joy!"

"The noble lady Shen of Xiwu Palace has been diagnosed as pregnant. The emperor and the queen mother have already gone to Xiwu Palace to visit her. The emperor sent a servant to tell the queen~"

After hearing this, Concubine Qing was immediately confused, but she still said, "Really? That's great! Daqing has another dragon descendant! Concubine Shen is also a blessed person."

Xiao Fuzi said, "Yes, yes, who says it's not true? The Queen Mother was very happy when she heard it, and gave many gifts to her!"

Concubine Qing smiled slightly and said, "I will go to Xiwu Palace to visit Concubine Shen later."

Xiao Fuzi said, "Now that the news has been passed on, I will leave first~"

Concubine Qing: "Okay, you go first."

After Xiao Fuzi left, Ying'er said gloomily, "Just a few days ago, Ling Changzai came, and now Shen Guiren has come. Why are people still getting pregnant?"

Concubine Qing said, "The frequent pregnancies of the concubines are a symbol of the prosperity of the Daqing people, long-lasting blessings, and many children and blessings."

Ying'er looked at Concubine Qing and said with resentment, "You are the only one who is magnanimous..."

Concubine Qing only knows Ying'er, and said, "Okay, stop complaining. Go pick out some top-quality supplements. Remember to use top-quality ones and prepare more. Concubine Shen's family is very powerful and has seen all the best things. If it's ordinary things, she won't see them."

Even though Ying'er was reluctant, she still went.

Concubine Qing tapped the table lightly, thinking to herself, "Concubine Shen was only picked once this month, how could she be pregnant? How could the emperor let her get pregnant? What is going on?"

"The Emperor has always been wary of the General's power, so how come he suddenly made Concubine Shen pregnant..."

Concubine Qing couldn't figure it out no matter how hard she tried.

Suddenly, I vaguely remembered that day in Quxin Pavilion, when I saw Concubine Shen with messy hair, a slightly red face, and... the button that fell off her chest...

Thinking of this, Concubine Qing couldn't help but feel a chill on her back! Could she really be so bold?

Taiping Palace

Ling Xiangxiang was lazily basking in the sun in the courtyard. Zuo Wenyi walked up to her and couldn't help but said in a sarcastic tone, "Why didn't anyone from the other palaces come to Chengping Palace to deliver anything today?"

"Oh, I remember now. Concubine Shen of Xiwu Palace is also pregnant. People are running to Xiwu Palace! Hahahaha"

Ling Xiangxiang's maid, Persimmon, said, "My lady, let's go into the house!"

Ling Xiangxiang was too lazy to pay attention to Zuo Wenyi, she stood up and said, "Okay."

Zuo Wenyi crossed her arms and said, "Even though you don't want to hear it, it's the truth."

Just as he finished speaking, the eunuch who was delivering the imperial edict came in to report.

"The Emperor has issued an edict to promote Concubine Shen to Concubine Shen."
