Tong Chenger lived a bitter life. After her death, a self-proclaimed time administrator, Unit 1314, informed her that her difficult life was due to his mistake during his internship. He promised to...
The imperial physician looked at the stunned people in the room with a look of surprise. Shouldn't they be happy?
Why does he look so incredulous? Is it just my imagination?
It took the old woman a while to react, and then she exclaimed with great joy, "Really?"
The imperial physician smiled and said, "Of course it's true."
After the imperial physician left, the nanny, Rulan, and Ruxue immediately treated Tong Cheng'er like a fragile porcelain doll, supporting her every step of the way, for fear of her bumping or falling.
After helping the person to bed, the nanny finally remembered that she hadn't told the master about this great joyous occasion yet!
"Madam, perhaps this servant should send someone to inform the master immediately."
Tong Cheng'er thought about that person's personality; if she didn't tell him in advance, there would probably be something to talk about later.
So he nodded and said, "Alright, and while you're at it, send someone to the Tong family to let them know as well."
Although she had told her mother about having children later in life, her mother seemed relieved on the surface, but she kept it on her mind all along!
The old woman quickly replied, "Yes, Madam."
The old woman acted quickly, immediately leaving the room and instructing the errand boy to hurry and deliver the good news.
Su Peisheng entered the room with a shocked expression. When Yinzhen saw him, he couldn't help but say, "Don't be so hasty. What happened?"
Su Peisheng grinned broadly: "My lord, someone from the manor has come to say that the Princess Consort is pregnant."
Upon hearing this, Yinzhen was immediately stunned, completely frozen in place, his eyes not even blinking.
"W-what did you say?"
Su Peisheng repeated, "The Princess Consort is pregnant. The imperial physician just examined her pulse, and she has been pregnant for over a month."
Yinzhen stood up abruptly with a thud, knocking over the chairs around him, creating a deafening roar.
Hearing the sound, Yinzhen finally felt a sense of reality.
Su Peisheng watched from the side, his face full of shock. But after thinking about it, he felt that it was only natural. His master valued his wife so much, so it was not surprising that he would be excited to hear that she was pregnant.
Yinzhen quickly put down his pen, ignoring the things on the table, and hurriedly said to Su Peisheng, "Quickly prepare the carriage and go back to the manor."
Upon hearing this, Su Peisheng smiled and replied, "Yes, this servant will do it."
While Yinzhen was rushing back to his residence in a hurry, Tong Cheng'er's people had already arrived at the Tong residence.
"Madam, the Fourth Madam has sent someone over."
Upon hearing this, Shumulu quickly said, "Quickly, let someone in to talk."
Granny Fu: "Yes, Madam."
Shumulu was still wondering if something had happened to her daughter, or if she was sending her something. Tong Cheng'er never forgot to send something new and interesting to the Tong family.
"This servant greets Your Highness."
Seeing the man's smiling face, Shumulu knew that something good must have happened, so she smiled and said, "Get up quickly."
"Thank you, Madam."
Shumulu quickly asked, "Did Cheng'er send you here for something?"
"Reporting to the Madam, the imperial physician has just diagnosed her with pregnancy, and this servant has come specifically to deliver the good news."
Upon hearing this, Shumulu was first stunned, then overjoyed. Her daughter was pregnant! Her daughter was finally pregnant!
When news spread after the New Year that both the First and Fifth Consorts were pregnant, Shumulu couldn't help but worry about her daughter. Although her son-in-law was concerned about her daughter's health, she was afraid that her daughter would be in a difficult position among her sisters-in-law since her sister-in-law and brother-in-law were all pregnant.
They were also afraid that the Emperor might say something.
Now that she is pregnant, Shumulu can finally breathe a sigh of relief.
But as soon as he breathed a sigh of relief, he couldn't help but take another deep breath.
For this daughter, pregnancy and childbirth were like walking through the gates of hell. Getting pregnant was a good thing, but even so, Shumulu couldn't help but worry about her daughter's health.
In short, there's always something to worry about.
Thinking this, Shumulu immediately said to Granny Fu, "Granny, please quickly prepare this document as a guide for what I need to avoid and what I should pay attention to during my pregnancy."
Granny Fu was also pleased and said with a smile, "Yes, Madam."
Shumulu generously rewarded the person who brought the good news. Before leaving, Shumulu said, "You will tell Cheng'er that I will visit her tomorrow."
In fact, Lady Shumulu wanted to go immediately, but since it was a prince's residence, the rules were strict, and she tried her best to behave properly so as not to give her daughter any reason to complain.
That's why I said I would go tomorrow, even though I was in a hurry.
"This servant will go back and tell the Princess Consort."
After instructing Granny Fu, Shumulu sent someone to tell her daughters-in-law the news one by one.
Tong Cheng'er has a very good relationship with all three of her sisters-in-law.
The eldest sister-in-law, Fucha, entered the family early, and the sisters-in-law got along harmoniously.
My second sister-in-law, Shu Yu, also helped when we went to find a match.
Third Sister-in-law Yingyu was a fellow candidate for the imperial harem. She also went to the matchmaking event. Although Tong Cheng'er was in Mongolia and couldn't personally attend Yingyu's marriage to Tong Xue'an, there was still some affection between them.
All three of my sisters-in-law have already had children, so they were all genuinely happy for my sister-in-law when they heard that she was pregnant.
Both out of affection and reason, they hoped that their sister-in-law and Prince Yong would live a harmonious and happy life.
Upon learning this, the three of them went to Shumulu's courtyard without prior arrangement.
Shumulu was not surprised to see her three daughters-in-law, but she was still happy.
The three daughters-in-law discussed what to pay attention to during pregnancy, what to eat to stimulate their appetite, and what to avoid...
Shumulu listened from the side, occasionally offering a few words of comment.
Seeing the harmonious scene, Shumulu felt that her life had been worthwhile.
Having lived half a lifetime, her sons each have their own skills and abilities, her daughters-in-law live in harmony, her daughter married a good man who is devoted to her, and she herself also married a good man.
Shumulu felt that she must have done something really good in her past life, otherwise, such a life was not something that ordinary people could have.
That evening, when the men of the Tong family returned home, they all learned of the news and were naturally overjoyed, wishing they could immediately rush to the Prince Yong's residence to see for themselves.
On the other hand, Emperor Kangxi learned of the news a little later than them.
The reason he found out a little late was mainly because he was busy with official business during the day, summoning court officials. Liang Jiugong waited until he was free before saying, "Your Majesty, news has come from the wife of Prince Yong that she is pregnant."
Upon hearing this, Kangxi was somewhat dazed. He had been dreaming of Yinzhen's wife getting pregnant, and now she was!
Emperor Kangxi even consulted the imperial physician about this matter. The physician said that both Yinzhen and his wife were healthy, and that the desire to conceive was related to their mood. Therefore, he resolved all the negative comments about Tong Cheng'er that he could.
As a result, the couple had been married for more than two years without conceiving, and he didn't want to urge her to get pregnant.
Upon suddenly hearing the news that Tong Cheng'er was pregnant, Kangxi felt as if he were in a dream.
It really felt like a dream.
"Liang Jiugong, has the imperial physician confirmed it? Is she really pregnant?"
Liang Jiugong smiled and said, "The imperial physician has confirmed that the Princess Consort of Prince Yong is indeed pregnant, and has been pregnant for more than a month."
Emperor Kangxi immediately laughed and said, "Good, Yinzhen can be considered to have a child now."
He finally stopped worrying that he would never have a child in his life.
Of course, the main issue isn't the children.
