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

When Xiao Rui learned that Song Qingwan was pregnant again, he put down everything he was doing without hesitation and rushed to Jingyang Palace in a panic.

Along the way, he was very excited and couldn't wait to see her. Every step was filled with joy and anticipation, as if time had become extraordinarily long. Finally, he arrived at the gate of Jingyang Palace, took a deep breath, and slowly opened the door.

Walking into the palace, Xiao Rui saw Song Qingwan sitting by the bed with a gentle and firm look in her eyes. Her face was filled with a happy smile, and her hand gently stroked her belly, as if communicating with her unborn child.

Xiao Rui walked quickly to her side, squatted down, and rested his head on her knees, feeling her warmth. Their eyes met, full of love and care.

"Wan'er, thank you for bringing me this good news." Xiao Rui said softly, with a hint of emotion in his voice.

Song Qingwan smiled and replied: "It is also my honor. We are about to welcome the arrival of a new life."

Xiao Rui nodded, then stood up, held Song Qingwan's hand tightly, and said gently: "You must rest well during this period of time, and don't work too hard. I will leave the harem to Concubine An and Concubine Yu to help you take care of it. If you need anything, just send someone to tell me!"

Song Qingwan nodded. At this moment, she felt so happy.

Then she thought about how she was too careless and didn't realize she was pregnant. She felt a little sorry for the baby in her belly. "It's just that I was careless. I didn't even know when I was pregnant, and I was running around all day..."

Xiao Rui touched Song Qingwan's hair and said, "You can't be blamed for this. Too many unexpected things have happened in the past few months."

"I have hardly ever been to the harem. The last time I was affectionate with you was probably... the day when Zhao Yunshan and Prince Anling rebelled!"

After Xiao Rui said this, Song Qingwan also remembered that time it was in the secret room of the Yangxin Palace. Outside, the war was raging and about to break out. They hugged and kissed each other deeply, fearing that they would never see each other again.

Unexpectedly, I got pregnant that time.

"It should...it should be that time..." Song Qingwan replied with a blushing face.

Xiao Rui couldn't help but raise the corner of his mouth and hugged Song Qingwan in his arms. He really loved the woman in front of him.

"There is one more thing I haven't told you yet. Yesterday, news came from Fenghua Palace that the queen had passed away."

After hearing this, Song Qingwan raised her head and said, "There has been no news about the Queen these days. We all thought that the Emperor had already dealt with the Queen."

Xiao Rui shook his head. "No, she did many wrong things that she shouldn't have done. I have removed all her honors. No one serves her. I have left her to fend for herself in Fenghua Palace."

"I heard that it was a chronic illness, plus her heart disease. The cold weather made her catch a cold, and she passed away in the middle of the night."

"I intend to announce to the world that the queen has passed away and give her a grand funeral. After all, family disgrace should not be made public. She is the mother of a country, and those scandals should not be brought to the table to be discussed."

Song Qingwan nodded gently. "I understand what the emperor means. The emperor also has his own difficulties."

Xiao Rui was very pleased to see that Song Qingwan was so considerate and tactful. He knew that she would not be unhappy because of his decision.

"Also, I have ordered the death of Zhao and Yu (Princess Shen and Imperial Concubine Qing). They are both extremely evil. I originally wanted to spare Yu's life. After all, she has been following me and assisting me from the beginning. But I cannot forgive what she did to Chen Yi and Chen Xi."

Song Qingwan sighed, "Yu Shi should have been a very good person, but she took the wrong path. And Shenpin, such a smart woman, chose to fake pregnancy to deceive the emperor."

After hearing this, Xiao Rui's brows twitched. Zhao Linlang's pregnancy was something he had deliberately arranged from the beginning. As it concerned the country, he did not tell Song Qingwan at the time.

Doctor Tan has always been his man. Given Zhao Linlang's status, he would never have let her get pregnant in her entire life. However, Zhao Yunshan and Prince Anling were eyeing her covetously and trying to win over the hearts of the people in the court in an attempt to sideline him as soon as possible, so he had to resort to this desperate measure.

Special medicine was used to make Shenpin feel bloated and nauseous, and Shenpin and others mistakenly believed that she was pregnant.

Afterwards, Concubine Shen was indeed smart. She began to wonder why she had never felt the fetal movement even though she was five or six months pregnant. Xiao Rui then asked Doctor Tan to add another medicine to the medicine to make her internal organs in her abdomen cramp from time to time. She had never been pregnant, so she mistakenly thought that this feeling was the fetal movement.

"Not only that, I also discovered that she was committing adultery with Prince Anling." Xiao Rui said.

"Ah?!" Song Qingwan was shocked. She really didn't expect that the two of them would be so bold. No wonder Prince Anling wanted to help Zhao Yunshan to deal with the emperor together!

"It seems that Concubine Shen...she really deserved to die."

Xiao Rui touched Song Qingwan's face.

"Okay, let's not talk about them anymore. I plan to make you my queen after you give birth to an heir!"

Before Song Qingwan could speak, Xiao Rui continued, "You are pregnant now and it is really hard. The ceremony of crowning the queen is very complicated, but I don't want to rush into it. I want you to stand by my side in glory!"

"After you give birth to an heir, I will hold a grand ceremony to confer the title on you. This will save you from too much work, and secondly, if we immediately appoint a new queen after the death of the former queen, we will avoid criticism from the court."

Song Qingwan still hasn't recovered from her shock. With her current status, she is already very content to be able to be a royal concubine of the current dynasty. In fact, she has never thought about the position of queen.

"Your Majesty...I am afraid I am not qualified for this job..."

Xiao Rui was puzzled and said, "How could that be? My Wan'er is a beauty, virtuous and talented, and is the best candidate to be the mother of the country!"

Song Qingwan still had some evasion. After all, being a queen and being a royal concubine meant different responsibilities. As a royal concubine, she could handle the affairs of the harem to the best of her ability, and in her spare time, she could watch her two children around her knees. But being a queen was different. She would probably be busy with many things.

"But, but I am only a concubine's daughter, and my father is in prison for a crime. I am afraid that if I take the position of Empress Dowager, I will be criticized."

Xiao Rui immediately said, "Silly, what are you talking about? I am also a concubine's son, who dares to criticize me! Besides, your mother has divorced Song Zhicheng, I know all this, you have nothing to do with the man in prison."

"Besides, I want you to come to me..." Xiao Rui changed his previous expression and said to Song Qingwan affectionately.

"I am lonely standing in a high position. In the eyes of others, I have supreme power and must be living a happy life. But in fact, I live cautiously. I have to keep a close eye on the previous dynasty, be wary of the harem, and care about the countless people of Daqing."

"Come to me, I need you!"
