Huang Qiying was born as a maid of Fucha Langya, and her expression changed slightly when she heard this.

But Gao Xiyue's family background was strong, and Huang Qiying knew she couldn't compete with her, so she laughed and changed the subject, saying, "I heard that the second prince was praised by the emperor again.

In comparison, the eldest prince is weak and sickly, and the third prince is tongue-tied. It can be seen that only the Queen's legitimate son is the most outstanding. "

The smile on Fucha Langya's face deepened a bit, but she still pretended to be virtuous and said, "The eldest prince, the second prince, and the third prince are still young, how can we tell who is outstanding and who is not.

It is the first son of the Emperor after he ascended the throne who is the most honorable and the one most valued by the Empress Dowager. The three of you are still young and have no shortage of favors. You still have to work harder.

Whichever of you gives birth to the emperor's first son after he ascends the throne, I will reward you handsomely, understand?"

The three of them bowed and said yes quickly.

After returning to Xianfu Palace, the first thing Gao Xiyue did was to smash the light green teacup with gold thread that Xing Xuan handed over to her.

Mo Xin quickly asked everyone to leave.

"What's going on, Queen? You clearly agreed that I would give birth to the first son after the Emperor ascended the throne."

Gao Xiyue's cheeks were puffed with anger. She was displeased with everything on the table and simply raised her hand to throw everything to the ground.

"Forget about Concubine Jia, she is from the Yu clan. Even if she gave birth to a prince, she would not be named the crown prince. And what about Concubine Yi?

She was born as a lowly maid like Mei Changzai, and was only made a noble lady because of her experience in the palace. Why would the Queen honor her?"

Mo Xin could only comfort him, "My dear, please don't be angry. The most important thing about having a child is fate, and you can't rush it.

In my opinion, the most important thing for us now is to ask the emperor to give the eldest prince to you to raise. With the eldest prince, the queen will look up to you a little more. We don't have to suffer the queen's anger anymore."

After hearing this, Gao Xiyue slammed the table with her hand and said, "Mo Xin, you are right. Without further ado, let's go find the emperor tonight!"

In the blink of an eye, Ruyi had been confined to her room for more than two months. Counting the days, the baby in her belly would soon be three months old.

Jiang Yebi's medical skills are very advanced, and the fetus in Ruyi's belly is now very stable.

However, apart from Jiang Yebi, who treated Ruyi on a daily basis, and Hailan, who lived in the same palace with her, only Su Lujun and Chen Wanyin had visited Ruyi.

The favored concubine who was once envied by everyone is now gradually becoming deserted.

On this day, Su Lujun came to the Yanx Palace again to share recent gossip with Ruyi.

"Your Highness, Empress Xian, do you know that the one in Xianfu Palace regained his favor a few days ago?"

Ruyi liked to see Su Lujun's excited look when she told gossip, and she showed a surprised expression along with her.

Seeing Ruyi's interest, Su Lujun spoke more excitedly, "I heard that she played a sad and gentle song "Yingchun Tan" on the way back to the palace, and it attracted the emperor's soul.

It's hard to believe her efforts. I heard her hands were stiff from playing the piano. After all, she was reinstated as Huipin. "

"Behind Huipin is the Gao family. The Gao family is capable, so it's only a matter of time before she regains favor. There's nothing to be surprised about."

Ruyi was quite open-minded. "It's you, Lujun, who has insisted on coming to see me for such a long time. My illness is very serious. It would be bad if I implicate you."

Su Lujun said with concern, "Empress Xian, we have been sisters for many years, and it is strange to say these things.

I am a little worried. Your Majesty looks so pale. Are you doing well these days? Is the Ministry of Internal Affairs treating your Majesty harshly?"

Ruyi smiled and shook her head. "No. Although I am ill, the emperor has not taken back my power to assist in the management of the six palaces. The servants in the Ministry of Internal Affairs are quite sensible. They have never neglected the Yanxi Palace."

Su Lujun finally felt relieved and said, "That's good. My mother's family sent some high-quality bird's nests and wild ginseng to Empress Xian to nourish her body. Your Majesty, please rest assured and recover. I will take my leave."

After Su Lujun left, Ruyi stood up and called惢心 to help her remove her makeup.

惢心 said this with concern while gently wiping Ruyi's face with a handkerchief.

"It was not easy for my master to be pregnant. But I don't understand, do you want to hide it from Concubine Chun?"

Ruyi removed the deliberately sickly makeup on her face, and her whole face looked round and translucent, with full vitality. "You must be on guard against others. Besides, only if you can hide it from the people around you, can you hide it from others."

Ruyi touched her smooth face with her hand, and suddenly remembered something, and asked, "惢心, you haven't seen A Ruo in the past few days, right?"

Suo Xin nodded, "Yes. A few days ago, the master asked me to go and chat with Ye Xin.

It is said that there was a humble maid in the laundry department in the previous dynasty who accidentally got in touch with the eunuch beside the emperor and was transferred to be a maid in front of the emperor.

Relying on her youth and beauty, she quickly won the emperor's heart and rose rapidly to the top.

First she was given the title of noble lady, then concubine, and finally, she became a noble concubine, enjoying unlimited glory. Her mother's family was also promoted to high positions, becoming royal relatives.

This was heard by Sister A Ruo, who scolded me and Ye Xin, saying that we were daydreaming.

Since then, Sister A Ruo has been frequently in and out of the Yanxi Palace, and no one knows where she goes. "

Ruyi held the hot and wet handkerchief to cover her eyes and said, "Throughout history, there are many examples of people who rose from palace maids to become imperial concubines. It's no wonder that they are so attractive.

But, when your heart grows bigger, you become less cautious in doing things, and it’s easier to find mistakes.”

Suo Xin used a comb to gently comb Ruyi's long hair and said, "I don't know what Sister A Ruo has been busy with recently. I heard from other young palace maids that she often goes to the Imperial Garden."

Ruyi smiled knowingly and said, "Our Yanxi Palace has long been exposed like a sieve. I don't believe anyone except you, Sanbao, Doctor Jiang, and Hailan.

By the way, have you sent the letter I asked you to take to your mother's home last time?"

Suo Xin nodded, "Although the master is ill, the emperor is sympathetic and allowed Sanbao to go to the Ulanala Mansion in person.

Sanbao has personally delivered the letter from the queen to Lord Narbu."

Ruyi looked in the mirror, her face still beautiful without makeup, and smiled, "That's good. It's almost time for us to recover."
