Only then did Zhen Huan stand up and reluctantly leave Shuiyuxuan.

Shen Meimei quickly asked Caixing and Caiyue to close the palace gate, and she had to think carefully about what to do next.

Before she could think for too long, she felt sleepy and fell asleep in a daze.

In the Yangxin Palace, the emperor was so excited that he couldn't sleep. After Shen Meizhuang was framed by Concubine Hua for a false pregnancy, she had been indifferent to him. It was rare for her to give birth to a princess at this time.

The ceremony of conferring Shen Meizhuang as a princess must be well organized to make up for past regrets.

The emperor thought to himself and shouted involuntarily:

"Su Peisheng, come here and go to the storehouse to pick out some fabrics for the children. Also, bring the necklace that Queen Chunyuan loved the most back then and give it to the princess as a reward. Send it over tomorrow morning. The palace has had three children in a row. It's such a great joy!"

"Yes, Your Majesty, I will get it done tonight and deliver it to you tomorrow morning!" said Su Peisheng.

The emperor nodded and said:

"Remember, you must pick the best one. You will do it in person tomorrow. There must be no mistakes!"

The next morning, Shen Meimei was still asleep when she heard some noise outside.

People giving gifts came one after another. First, Su Peisheng was waiting outside with gifts, and then Jianqiu was also waiting outside, both waiting for Shen Meimei to get up and receive the gifts.

This has always been the case in the palace. Now that Meizhuang has given birth to a son and has been named Concubine Hui, her status and position has naturally increased a lot.

Cai Yue was really happy for her master when she saw someone giving her gifts. She whispered in Shen Meimei's ear:

"My lady, please wake up. Eunuch Su and Aunt Jianqiu are outside. Please accept the gift first and then go to sleep!"

Shen Meimei had no choice but to rub her eyes and get up, and asked Caixing and Caiyue to help her wash up, and then go to the main hall of Suiyuxuan to receive the gifts.

She saw some silks and satins that Su Peisheng had brought, and then looked at some gold and silver jewelry that Jianqiu had brought over, and said with a smile:

"Thank you for making the trip in person. I like these very much. Put them down!"

Su Peisheng put down the gift and said:

"Your Highness, the Emperor will come to see you after the court session today. He is very happy to know that you have safely given birth to a princess. He asked me to choose a gift yesterday."

After Su Peisheng finished speaking, Shen Meimei looked up at his forehead. The number above his head was 90%, which was indeed the truth.

Jianqiu also smiled and said:

"Your Highness has given birth to a child. As the head of the harem, the Queen should come to see it. However, she had something to do yesterday, so she specially sent me here today. The Queen was very relieved to see that Concubine Hui gave birth safely."

Shen Meimei looked at the number above Jianqiu's head again. It was zero percent, which meant there was no sincerity at all.

No matter what, once you've passed through someone's house, you're a guest. Since you've given gifts, Shen Meimei remembered that Shen Meizhuang used to give tips to servants. She followed Shen Meizhuang's example, stretched out her hand and grabbed a handful of golden melon seeds, put them into Su Peisheng and Jianqiu's hands, and said with a smile:

"You two have made a lot of trouble to come here, please accept this as a small token of my appreciation. Thank the Emperor and the Empress on my behalf!"

After seeing off Su Peisheng and Jianqiu, Shen Meimei wanted to go back to the bedroom to take a nap, but she didn't expect that the empress dowager's reward had also arrived.

Sun Zhuxi came in with a jade ruyi. Shen Meimei quickly searched for this person's information in her mind. She suddenly remembered that Shen Meizhuang had taken good care of the empress dowager over the years, and the empress dowager also had some pity for her.

She forced herself to greet Sun Zhuxi:

"Aunt Sun, I'm really flattered that you've come in person!"

"Empress Huifei gave birth to a princess safely. The Queen Mother is very happy and asked me to bring this jade ruyi to you. I hope everything goes well for you!"

When Shen Meimei saw that the jade ruyi was crystal clear, she knew at first glance that it was a priceless item.

She reached out to take it, and placed it in her palm. It felt cold. Shen Meimei liked Yu Ruyi very much.

"Thank you, Queen Dowager, for the reward!" Shen Meimei bowed in the direction of Shoukang Palace.
