After a while, Zhang Mi took back the pulse pillow, knelt in front of the emperor and the empress dowager, and put his hands together, "Congratulations to the emperor, congratulations to the empress dowager!"

An Lingrong didn't know where she got the courage from, and she shouted, "Sister Wan is not feeling well, how can you say congratulations?"

Zhang Mi smiled and replied, "Lady Wan has been pregnant for almost two months."

"what?"

"Are you telling the truth?"

For a moment, everyone stood up in surprise, especially the emperor and the queen mother. The queen mother hurried to Zhen Huan, grabbed her hand and smiled with relief, "How could you be so careless that you didn't even know you were pregnant."

Zhen Huan lowered her head and admitted her fault, "It is my fault. Thank you, Queen Mother, for your concern."

The emperor also came to her side and happily took Zhen Huan's other hand and placed it in his palm, "Huan Huan, are you really pregnant with a child for me? We have a child!"

Zhen Huan was a little shy, lowered her head and whispered: "I think Doctor Zhang's medical skills can't be wrong."

The emperor was delighted. He looked back at Zhang Mi and clapped Zhen Huan's hands happily. "Yes! Zhang Mi is an excellent doctor. She must be right when she diagnoses your pulse. Let her protect your pregnancy!"

Huanbi remembered that Zhang Mi was the Queen's man in the previous life. She pulled the clothes on Zhen Huan's back. Zhen Huan noticed it, smiled and said:

"Dr. Zhang's medical skills are first-rate in the Imperial Hospital, but I am of low status, so it is more important for me to let Dr. Zhang accompany the Emperor. I have always been taken care of by Dr. Wen, who is attentive and very familiar with my condition. I don't want to affect the Emperor because of my temporary pregnancy."

The Queen Mother nodded with satisfaction and praised: "Concubine Wan is sensible and does not show off because she is pregnant. No wonder the Emperor likes her. I also like such people. In this case, let the original imperial physician take care of her. The Emperor should keep a capable one here."

The Queen looked at Zhen Huan with a smile on her face, her eyes unfathomable.

The emperor returned to his seat and announced that Concubine Hua would be demoted to Concubine Nian, and asked her to reflect on her mistakes behind closed doors and come out when she had figured things out.

Concubine Hua fell to the ground sadly. If Songzhi hadn't supported her in time, she would have been injured.

As for Concubine Xia, the emperor asked someone to find a midwife to abort her pregnancy. After examination by the midwife and the imperial physician, the child was gone. Her life was saved, but because the pregnancy was too advanced and the mother's body was injured, she would never be able to get pregnant again. However, Concubine Fucha could have children again as long as she recovered.

Zhen Huan returned to Sui Yu Xuan. Mei Zhuang finally went out after hearing that she was pregnant. "Huan Er, Ling Rong, I'm glad you're all right. I was sitting in the palace. When I heard something happened in Jing Ren Palace, I was worried. Cai Yue came back and said that you two are all right. Not only that, Huan Er is pregnant. That's great!"

An Lingrong helped Mei Jie to sit down and said with a smile, "Thanks to Huanbi's alertness, she noticed that Xia Changzai's face was not right, so she pulled me and Wan Jie away. Otherwise, if Xia Shi went crazy, we would not be able to resist."

Sister Mei nodded gently, looked at the open window, and hurriedly ordered: "Huanbi, go and close the window quickly, be careful that Huan'er will catch a cold.

Liuzhu, go get a softer silk quilt for the bed!

Xiao Yunzi, go check if the soup in the kitchen is ready?"

"By the way, Lingrong, I remember that you are quite knowledgeable about spices and medicinal herbs. From now on, please check all the food utensils in Huan'er Palace, including the gifts sent by others, with Imperial Doctor Wen. Make sure that no one eats the wrong thing or uses the wrong thing."

An Lingrong smiled and agreed, "Even if Sister Mei doesn't say it, Lingrong will do these things. Sister, don't worry, with Lingrong in Suiyuxuan, she will definitely protect Sister Wan together with everyone in Suiyuxuan."

Mei Zhuang smiled from ear to ear and nodded, "It's right for you to protect Huan'er, but you also have to take care of yourself. Your body is weak to begin with, so don't get too tired. The most important thing is that we are all well."

An Lingrong felt a lump in her throat when she heard this. She had originally thought that Sister Wan and Sister Mei were just being kind to her out of a small favor, like alms. However, the longer they spent together, the more she realized how truly sincere the two sisters were towards her.

She has always been sensitive and has been mocked for her family background and appearance many times since entering the palace. However, her two elder sisters not only did not despise her, but also protected her.

Just now in Jingren Palace, Xia Dongchun was obviously looking for trouble with her, but Sister Wan spoke up for her without thinking, which prevented Xia Dongchun from succeeding and humiliating her.

When she first entered the palace, she thought about how to climb up step by step and how to gain the emperor's favor. However, it has been almost two years, and the emperor has always treated her indifferently, summoning her when he wants and dismissing her when he wants.

Now she has seen clearly that although the emperor's favor and power are indispensable, what makes her happiest and most satisfied is the sisterhood between her and her two sisters.

Lingrong recalled that when she was at home, her mother only gave birth to her as a child, and she was not close to her brothers and sisters born by her aunt. Some of them were even more unfamiliar to her than outsiders.

Now that she has entered the palace, she did not expect that she would be able to gain the sincerity and love of her two sisters, who are far superior to her in family background, appearance, and talent. Not only have they never laughed at her, they have also often helped her.

Spending time with her two sisters gradually healed her. She was no longer like before, always blaming others when things went wrong. Now she felt that she had become much more cheerful.

She secretly swore in her heart that she would protect herself and her two sisters in this palace.

An Lingrong was lost in thought, and it was Zhen Huan's voice that brought her back to reality.

"By the way, Huanbi, why did you feel it was inappropriate when the Emperor wanted Doctor Zhang to protect my pregnancy?"

As soon as these words were spoken, Meizhuang and Lingrong looked at Huanbi at the same time.

Huanbi blinked and said, "I know that Doctor Zhang is an experienced doctor with superb medical skills, but I heard that Doctor Zhang intends to let his son marry a woman from the side branch of the Ulanara family. Doctor Zhang has been busy with this matter these days. I am worried that he is the Queen's man, so it is better to use our own people with confidence."

Zhen Huan smiled and praised: "Thanks to your cleverness, you thought of this, but how come I didn't know about this?"

Huanbi explained that she was free and heard the story while chatting with other palace maids she was familiar with. Although she didn't know whether it was true or not, she had to be careful.

Zhen Huan nodded with satisfaction and said, "You did a great job. If you hadn't been so careful, who knows what would have happened in the future. What happened today between Lady Xia and Noble Lady Fucha is really heartbreaking.

By the way, I heard from Su Peisheng that the emperor asked Prince Guo to go to the library to sort out the books tomorrow. I haven't found the books I asked you to find before. If you have nothing to do tomorrow, go there and look for them. Otherwise, I won't be able to go out in a few days because I'm pregnant and I'll be bored."

Hearing the name of Prince Guo, Huanbi's cheeks unconsciously flushed. She lowered her head and whispered, "I know."

Zhen Huan saw her shyness and waved her hand, saying, "It's all right here, all of you go out!"
