Mrs. Wang saw that the two looked unhappy, and her heart skipped a beat. "Tell me quickly, what happened?"

Jia Yuanchun turned her head away. Her beautiful and dignified face seemed a little fuller than before she was pregnant, but now it was filled with sorrow.

Baoqin dragged a broken leg and went forward to refill their tea. She said, "Madam, you may not know that the one who is favored right now is also pregnant. She is even more pregnant than our queen."

Only then did Mrs. Wang realize that she had wanted to comfort Jia Yuanchun, but because she didn't know the inside story, she had hurt her heart instead. She was at a loss for a moment.

Baoqin looked down at it again in self-mockery, "My leg, ah, it's better not to talk about it."

However, she was unwilling to say it. Mrs. Wang could guess a little bit that it must have been caused by that vixen.

What a vicious vixen. First she seduced the emperor away from the imperial concubine, and then she harmed Baoqin like this. She deserves to be thrown into the frying pan.

Mrs. Wang was indignant and pulled Baoqin's hand, saying, "My dear child, you have suffered."

Baoqin forced a smile, shook her head and said nothing.

Mrs. Wang originally thought that since Jia Yuanchun had become a royal concubine and was pregnant with the emperor's fetus, no one would dare to provoke her. She never expected that things would turn out like this.

"Your Majesty has been wronged." Jia Yuanchun is Lady Wang's only daughter. Seeing that she is not living a good life, how can she not feel pain in her heart? However, what Lady Wang is most concerned about now is another thing.

Now that the imperial concubine has fallen out of favor, what will Baoyu do in the future?

And now, the vixen who stole the emperor away is also pregnant, and her pregnancy is even further along than the empress's.

If that vixen gave birth to a prince earlier, even if the empress also gave birth to a prince, the date would be so close that the emperor would not find it new and would certainly not be too fond of it.

Things are not good.

Mrs. Wang's mind was slightly moved, and her expression changed again and again. No one knew what she was thinking.

Jia Yuanchun forced a smile and said, "Don't worry, mother. It can't get any worse than this. Once the baby is born, everything will be fine."

Madam Wang said, "But that fox...that lady is also pregnant with a dragon fetus. If it's a princess, it's fine. But if it's a prince, wouldn't it steal your limelight? And then she will be even more proud."

Jia Yuanchun knew this truth, but what could she do?

Madam Wang's eyes flashed with ruthlessness, and she whispered, "I think Your Majesty should make a decision sooner rather than later. It's better to strike first than to wait until someone steps on your head and shows off their power."

Baoqin's hands suddenly trembled and she almost dropped the teapot.

Jia Yuanchun was also shocked. "What are you talking about, mother? The Imperial Palace is not a place where you can do whatever you want. If we are caught, the Emperor will be furious. Wouldn't that implicate our entire family?"

"Your Majesty's worries are reasonable, but wealth and honor come with risks, and we can't just let others take advantage of us." In Mrs. Wang's opinion, Jia Yuanchun was too cautious, which was why she was bullied like this. "Don't be afraid, Your Majesty. I know a medicine that can abort a fetus without leaving any trace."

Jia Yuanchun hesitated again and again, still worried that she would be discovered and it would end badly.

Madam Wang continued to fan the flames, "Let's not talk about others, just look at Aunt Zhao in our mansion. She's not even a mistress. Because she gave birth to a son and a daughter for the master, she's so arrogant all day long, as if she were the emperor's biological mother. She even dares to ignore me."

Mrs. Wang saw that Jia Yuanchun's expression was a little shaken, and continued, "Not to mention the emperor's concubines. When that vixen gives birth to an heir, who knows how she will trample on you."

When she said this, Jia Yuanchun thought of Fuqiu's arrogant and conceited look, and realized that she was just relying on the emperor's favor.

But Fuqiu is of humble origin, and now she dares to do this by relying on the emperor's favor. Once she gives birth to a prince, will there still be a place for her, Jia Yuanchun, in this palace?

Just as Jia Yuanchun was about to speak, Baoqin shook her head slightly. However, Wang Furen's words had already made her think of it. She lowered her voice and asked, "Is it true that the medicine mother mentioned cannot be found?"

Baoqin sighed and blamed Mrs. Wang in her heart.

She was really afraid that the queen would listen to the lady, but she was a servant and no one here would listen to her, so it would be useless to be anxious.

"Don't worry, Madam. I have used that medicine before and several doctors have failed to diagnose it." Madam Wang was very proud. "By then, everyone will think that it was that vixen who was not blessed enough to give birth to a prince."

"No luck?"

"Yeah, if there's no problem found and you can't have a child, what else can you say but unlucky?"

Jia Yuanchun suddenly thought of something.

Before she entered the palace, her father had a favorite concubine, and everyone called her Concubine An.

Aunt An was not as stupid as Aunt Zhao. She had read some books and knew a few words. She understood Jia Zheng's mind better than Aunt Zhao who could not read a single word. Jia Zheng liked her very much and even stayed in her room every day.

But Mrs. Wang was still young at that time. How could she endure such loneliness? She made a fuss several times but it was of no use. Instead, it made Jia Zheng like the weak and submissive Aunt An more.

Only a few months after Aunt An entered the house, she became pregnant. The servants in the mansion all said that she was a lucky person.

But such a blessed person suddenly had a miscarriage out of the blue.

When the doctor came, he only said useless things, either about worrying about the mind or overworking about the body.

Later, Aunt An became pregnant again, but suddenly had a miscarriage.

The doctor came and said something similar.

Aunt An became pregnant four times, but she was unable to give birth to a child successfully every time. Gradually, her health deteriorated and she passed away within a few years.

In the end, he was only labeled as "unlucky".

She never thought that all these things were done by her mother.

Jia Yuanchun was silent for a moment, then said, "In that case, I'll trouble you, mother."

Mrs. Wang knew that she had agreed, so she promised, "Don't worry, Madam. I will go back in a few days. Now that the foxy girl is in her late period, we can't wait, we have to act as soon as possible."

Let that vixen be proud for a few more days.

Jia Yuanchun nodded and said, "When mother gets the medicine back, please hide it well. Don't let anyone find it."

Madam Wang said, "Don't worry. I will hide the medicine in her clothes. A little bit will be enough. Who dares to tear the clothes of the imperial concubine's biological mother? No one will find out."

Baoqin watched the two men plotting to murder the dragon fetus with sorrow in her eyes. Her heart seemed to be hanging in the air, and she could even see the scene of the annihilation of all nine members of the Jia family.

Oh my God, what is the madam doing? Could it be that she is so bold as to instigate the queen to do these things?

What if I get discovered?

In the next few days, Baoqin tried to persuade Jia Yuanchun several times when Lady Wang was away. She was about to persuade her to give in, but Fuqiu came to provoke Jia Yuanchun again.

Jia Yuanchun was really angry and decided to let Fuqiu know how powerful she was.

Baoqin was in despair. Looking at Fuqiu's leaving back, she could only mourn for her in her heart.

Ugh.
