(Note: Nala gave birth to the fifth prince, Yinzhi, whose name has been changed.)

Concubine Nianhulu's eyes lit up. Indeed, it was not appropriate to announce the news of pregnancy at this time. Since it was revealed, she had to be prepared for the possibility of losing it.

"I understand. The Empress is pregnant. I should go to the Empress's palace for any reason. It's still early. Come with me to deliver the gifts."

"yes."

In Chengqian Palace, Concubine Tong had already embroidered the screen to be given to Kangxi, and she didn't care much about Mu Sili's pregnancy.

She was the only one who had slept with the emperor this month, so it was normal for her to be pregnant. As for what others thought, it was none of her business. She just wanted to live a quiet life.

"Your Majesty, someone from Yongshou Palace has brought gifts to Kunning Palace to congratulate us. Shall we go?"

The imperial concubine brought gifts to celebrate? How could this sound so unreal? It would be better to say she went to Kunning Palace to cause trouble than to say she was going to congratulate the empress!

But since she has already gone to Kunning Palace, it would be impolite for me, as a concubine, not to go. I might as well just go and pay my respects to the queen.

Anyway, I haven't paid my respects to the Kunning Palace in the past few days, and the Queen didn't blame me. Maybe the Queen would be happy if I went there.

In addition, the gift she was embroidering for Kangxi had already been completed, so she sent it to the Palace of Heavenly Purity, which would also allow him to remember her kindness.

Although one's identity is there, it is easy for people to forget it if there is no interaction.

"Let's go. The Imperial Concubine has already gone. It would be bad if we didn't go. I will just go to Kunning Palace to pay my respects."

"yes."

In Kunning Palace, Kangxi carefully touched Mu Sili's belly. He was very confused. This was not his first time as a father, so why did he feel so excited?

"Your Majesty, please rest more in the coming days. I will come again next month to check your pulse."

Kangxi's originally excited heart instantly cooled down. What did this mean? Could it be that there was something wrong with the baby in the queen's belly?

"What's going on? Is there something wrong with the Queen's health?"

"Your Majesty has misunderstood. Your Majesty is in very good health and has no problems. However, when I took your pulse just now, I discovered that you seem to be pregnant with multiple babies.

However, it is too early now and I cannot be sure how many babies you are pregnant with, so I suggest that Your Majesty stay in Kunning Palace for the first three months to protect the fetus.

If nothing unexpected happens, next month I will be able to find out how many babies your Majesty is carrying. But your Majesty needs to be careful. You don't need to be as cautious with single pregnancies as with multiple pregnancies.

"Multiple babies? The Queen is pregnant with multiple babies?"

The meanings of "more" and "double" are different. His mind is now occupied by the news that he will soon have at least three offspring.

After all, he only has three sons now. If something unexpected happens, wouldn’t it be the end of him?

Now, apart from the fact that he is almost three years old, Saiyin Chahun is three months old and Yinzhi is only one month old. If he dies, no one can protect them.

Of course, although the Royal Mam can protect them for a while, she is old and probably won't be able to protect them for long.

Once someone takes advantage of the loophole, the Qing Dynasty will be over, so he will try his best to stay alive, live to see his descendants, and live to see the Qing Dynasty become stronger and stronger.

"Your Majesty, rest assured. I, your humble servant, will take care of your Majesty's health. You and the little masters in your belly will be fine. What we should be concerned about now is how many little masters your Majesty is actually pregnant with."

"I understand. I will leave the Queen's body to your care. I don't want to hear any bad news."

"I obey your orders."

"Your Majesty, Noble Consort Niuhulu and Consort Tong have arrived. They heard the news of your pregnancy and came to congratulate you. Would you like to let them in?"

Kangxi frowned. There were many rumors in the harem. Nianhulu should be angry when she heard the news that the queen was pregnant. Why did she come to congratulate her?

Even if she really wanted to congratulate, she could just send someone over with gifts. Why would she need to go there in person?

He was actually surprised that Concubine Tong would come. This month, he would occasionally go to Chengqian Palace to sit during the day to give her face. He didn't expect that she would come too.

However, since they are here, there is no point in driving them out. It is time for them to recognize their own status. The position of queen can only belong to Mu Sili.

Even if the queen died unexpectedly one day, he would not appoint another one. It would be enough for him, Kangxi, to have only one queen.

"Let them in."

"yes."

"I pay my respects to the Emperor and the Empress."

"Get up."

"I heard that Your Majesty has good news again. I am happy for you and have specially brought a hundred-year-old ginseng to nourish you. I hope you don't mind it."

The imperial physician bowed slightly. This imperial concubine must be a fool. This wasn't the queen's first birth, so how could she not know that pregnant women shouldn't use ginseng?

She even came to give it to the emperor in front of him. Does she think the emperor is also a fool?

"Ginseng? Your Majesty truly values ​​my health. It's a pity that I can't enjoy this ginseng. You haven't been pregnant before, so you don't know that pregnant women shouldn't use ginseng. I don't blame you."

Mu Sili's voice was gentle, but it made the imperial concubine feel as if she was in an ice cellar. Who said that pregnant women can't use ginseng? How could she not know?

If she had known, she would not have brought it. Now that Kangxi is still alive, and he heard that I brought ginseng to nourish the queen, would he misunderstand me?

"I really didn't know that pregnant women can't use ginseng to nourish their bodies. I was just worried about the hardship your majesty is going through during pregnancy, and I wanted to share your worries. Please don't misunderstand me.

Since the ginseng cannot be used, you can keep it in the storehouse and use it as a reward for others in the future. I have something else to do, so I will not disturb you in Kunning Palace."

"Since the Imperial Concubine has said so, I will accept it. Chunlan, send the Imperial Concubine off."

"Yes, Your Majesty, please."

Concubine Nianhulu left Kunning Palace with a gloomy face. Whenever Kangxi was not around, she would always mock the Queen for being pretentious.

It's not easy to find a hundred-year-old ginseng. Now that she brought one to give to her, it was already a favor to her. But she didn't expect that she would be so ungrateful.

But I just heard a few words outside, and if nothing unexpected happens, she is pregnant with multiple babies.

Multiple births, even if only one is a prince, her position as queen is as stable as it can be. It's time to contact the clan to help her.

Although she was only a concubine's daughter, her father had no legitimate daughter. Since there was no legitimate daughter, she could only do as she asked.

Otherwise, if she made any mistake in the palace, they would be in big trouble.

After she left, Concubine Tong found a place to sit down.

"You treat this palace as your own Chengqian Palace. You are so casual and you are not afraid of others saying you have no rules. But you have to watch out, the emperor is still here.

If the Emperor thinks you're being unruly, and word gets to the Empress, you can't blame me if I get punished."
