Yihuan held the baby in her arms, unwilling to let go, and repeatedly asked the imperial physician whether the Tenth Prince was healthy.

He Xi smiled and comforted him, "My Lord, you see that the Tenth Prince has a good appetite and sleeps soundly. He is so energetic."

Yihuan calmed down and completely accepted that her life had changed.

"Yongchen, Yongchen, my little Yongchen." Yihuan leaned her cheek against his forehead, feeling his body temperature and breath.

Wei Yanwan asked Chunchan to go out of the palace to deliver silver to Old Madam Wei.

Wei Yang took the silver and smiled happily, but after weighing it, her face darkened again and she questioned, "She is already a concubine, and you only give her this little."

Chunchan argued for Wei Yanwan, "The master also lives on his allowance. According to the palace rules, many of the rewards must be registered and cannot be sent out of the palace to be sold."

Wei Yang said dissatisfiedly: "If she wants him to serve the emperor well, she can just ask for some unmarked silver."

Then, she shouted to the courtyard in great joy: "Zulu, your sister has sent some more money. If you want something, mother will take you to buy it."

"Give me some money to play a few rounds."

Chunchan sighed and told Wei Yangshi what Wei Yanwan had asked her to say: "Madam, the master told you to keep an eye on Master Zuolu and not to cause any trouble."

"I know, I know."

Wei Yang was in a hurry to go out and spend money, so she was impatient to close the door.

Chunchan couldn't help but say, "Madam, don't you care about the master's health? The master had a hard time during the pregnancy. She couldn't eat and vomited a lot. She couldn't sleep well at night and lost a lot of weight."

Wei Yang thought for a moment and said, "Tell her to find more imperial physicians and an experienced midwife. It's normal for women to have mild or severe reactions during pregnancy. I can't do anything about it."

Chunchan couldn't help shedding tears and turned around to leave.

Wei Yang called her back and said, "Tell her to ask the Emperor to allow me to enter the palace to accompany her as soon as possible."

Chunchan returned to the palace and said to Wei Yanwan: "The old lady feels sorry for the hardship of the pregnancy, and hopes to enter the palace to accompany the master."

Wei Yanwan smiled and said, "You don't have to lie to me. I still understand her."

Although she had a smile on her face, Wei Yanwan's eyes could not hide the loss and bitterness.

Zhen Huan patted her hand and comforted her, "Take good care of her. I will arrange for her to come to the palace."

Wei Yanwan said to Zhen Huan: "Your Majesty, there is no need to arrange for my mother to enter the palace. She does not understand the palace rules and it would make me feel uneasy if she came."

Then he said to himself: "She doesn't care about me, and I don't care about her."

She couldn't fool herself, let alone the people around her.

Wei Yang opened the door, and a strange woman said, "The Queen Mother arranged for me to take Madam Wei into the palace."

Wei Yang happily packed her bags and gave all the silver in the house to Zuolu.

"You should spend it sparingly. When mother leaves the palace, I will bring you better things."

"I know, you're being long-winded. Go quickly and give my regards to Wei Yanwan."

Wei Yang looked around and touched the soft silk sedan chair, feeling secretly proud. She had given birth to a beautiful daughter who became the imperial consort. She was also a member of the imperial family and could hold her head high in front of her relatives.

Wei Yang got off the sedan chair, but felt that the small courtyard in front of her did not look like the palace, and she couldn't help feeling a little scared.

"Who are you? My daughter has money and will come to redeem me. Don't hurt me."

Nanny Chang said with a stern face: "The Queen sent us here to teach the old lady the palace etiquette. If the old lady can't learn it well, she doesn't need to enter the palace."

Wei Yang said dissatisfiedly: "I will stay in my daughter's palace. She is the one who makes the decisions in her palace. I just don't need to go outside to attract the attention of the nobles."

Nanny Chang said in a stern and impartial manner: "It was the Queen's order that the old lady should learn the etiquette of the palace.

Then Nanny Chang advised earnestly, "Old Madam, the rules in this palace are more important than anything else. If you offend His Majesty and the Queen Mother, not to mention Concubine Ling, even the Queen Mother will not be able to protect you."

Wei Yang had no choice but to carefully learn the rules from Nanny Chang.

"Old sister, you see, I have been away from home for too long, and my son is alone at home with no one to take care of him. Can I go back to see him?"

Nanny Chang said, "The Concubine Ling will send the money over, so the old lady doesn't have to worry."

Seeing that she was still worried, Nanny Chang was puzzled.

"Madam Wei, please forgive me for saying so much. You are worried about the young master's money. Empress Lingfei is pregnant and waiting for you, why don't you learn the rules and stay with her for a few more days?"

"She has so many people serving her, but I am her only mother."

"No matter how many people serve, a woman giving birth is like going through the gates of hell, and the old lady doesn't have many opportunities to see the queen."

"How can that be the same? People say that a precious son and a money-losing girl are the same. Girls are raised up and given to others. What does it matter whether they meet or not?"

Nanny Chang was puzzled and said, "I have never heard of it. I only know that the children I gave birth to after ten months of pregnancy are all treasures, no matter whether they are boys or girls. As for the compensation, the old lady's family was subsidized by Concubine Ling, and the young master was the loser."

Wei Yang saw the rigid old lady in front of her, glared at her and said, "You don't have any children, you don't understand."

"I am not blessed with any children. I envy the old lady for having a daughter like Concubine Ling."

Although Wei Yangshi was ignorant, she was quick to learn things. Like Wei Yanwan, she was a learning-oriented person.

In just twenty days, her every move and gesture already showed the demeanor of a lady from a wealthy family.

Nanny Chang was very satisfied. Her job was much easier than Nanny Gui's.

"The old lady can enter the palace tomorrow. I solemnly tell you that you must not act recklessly or speak carelessly after entering the palace. The Empress is strict in managing the palace. The old lady should not rely on the power of Concubine Ling to do anything wrong."

Wei Yang agreed with a smile, but she didn't agree in her heart. Her daughter was the emperor's favorite concubine. If she had no children, she would be made a concubine, so what if she was the empress?

The next day, Wei Yang came to the palace under the guidance of Nanny Chang. She looked around and was curious about everything in the palace.

However, when she saw the queen, her contempt instantly disappeared. The queen's eyes were deep and calm, and she looked at her as if she could see through all her little thoughts.

Wei Yang hurriedly saluted the queen, but she lost her composure due to nervousness. Zhen Huan frowned slightly and said in a serious tone: "You must always pay attention to etiquette in the palace and never lose your sense of propriety."

Wei Yang was startled and quickly nodded her head.

Zhen Huan smiled kindly again: "Don't be nervous, old lady. Just accompany Concubine Ling. Su Lian, send the gifts I give to the old lady directly to Yongshou Palace."

Wei Yang left Changchun Palace in fear, thinking to herself, she is worthy of being the empress in the palace, she has more than a simple mind.

Wei Yanwan said that she didn't want to see her mother, but on the day she learned that Wei Yang was going to enter the palace, she looked towards the palace gate from time to time.

Chunchan sighed secretly, it was really sad to have a mother like this.

Wei Yang came to Yongshou Palace in the sedan chair awarded by Zhen Huan.

"I pay my respects to Her Majesty the Concubine Ling, and wish Her Majesty peace and good health."

Wei Yanwan looked at her mother with surprise, as if she had been reborn.
