"Your Majesty, please calm down. There is indeed news in Chengqian Palace that Concubine Xian is pregnant, but she is only pregnant now and has not given birth safely. There are still variables and it cannot be taken seriously.

You must not act rashly. If people knew that you had given her a sterilizing drug before, I'm afraid the entire Fucha Mansion would be in trouble.

The Ulanara clan has fallen on hard times, but a lean camel is bigger than a horse. It's better not to confront them head-on. After all, you're not the only one surprised by the news of Concubine Xian's pregnancy."

Yes, that's right. How could she forget that she was not the only one in the harem who wished that Mu Sili would be childless throughout her life?

"This is a great opportunity to kill two birds with one stone. Since someone wants to step forward, I will definitely give her this chance.

Send someone to keep an eye on them. I want to see who makes the move. This will be evidence I can use to control them in the future, and it will also help to further solidify my position."

"yes."

In Xianfu Palace, Concubine Gao's personal maid looked at her with concern, fearing that she would go to Chengqian Palace and cause trouble.

The two ladies entered the palace together, but at that time Mu Sili was a concubine and the imperial concubine was just a princess, so their relationship was still pretty good.

However, her status changed overnight. The princess became a noble concubine, while the concubine only got the title of Concubine Xian. In addition, some people instigated her, which made the empress even more dissatisfied with her.

Although the Empress often gave her a cold look, she was disappointed with her. After all, if it were the Empress, she would definitely not let anyone bully her.

"Why are you looking at me like that? Do you think I'm going to cause trouble at Chengqian Palace? I'm telling you, I'm not a fool. How could I possibly cause trouble?

Remember this, from today on, everyone in Xianfu Palace should keep a close eye on things. Concubine Xian is pregnant, and many people dislike her. You must not interfere.

"Concubine Xian is possessed by a demon. I can't afford to offend her. If anyone dares to cause trouble for me, I'll skin her alive!"

"Don't worry, Your Majesty. I know what to do. But Concubine Xian is pregnant. Are you sure you don't want to send some gifts? I heard that the Emperor is still in Chengqian Palace."

Send a gift? She wouldn't go to send one. If she wanted to send one, she would let someone else do it. If she went to Chengqian Palace at this time, she would definitely be ridiculed by Mu Sili.

She thought that she had always been the one mocking her, but she didn't expect that everything changed since she was possessed by a ghost last month. The person who was mocked and bullied changed from Mu Sili to herself. It was really frustrating just thinking about it!

But she was afraid of Mu Sili and didn't dare to go against her. When she thought that she, as a noble concubine, couldn't defeat Concubine Xian, she began to blame her father.

"If Father had been more attentive, I might have been the Imperial Noble Consort. I don't believe she would dare to bully me, who is comparable to the Vice Empress!"

"Yes, yes, yes, everything you said is right. I will pick out a few gifts and send them over. This is a proper etiquette."

"Go ahead."

In Yonghe Palace, Concubine Jia smashed the mirror in front of her fiercely. Her face had not recovered in a month, and she seriously suspected that Li Yu did it on purpose.

"When will this young lady's face recover? If it doesn't, I won't be able to see the emperor. What will I do if I fall out of favor?"

"My lady, why are you still in the mood to care about your face? There's news from Chengqian Palace that Empress Xian is pregnant. Aren't you worried?"

"Why should I be anxious? The one who should be anxious is the Queen. What I'm concerned about now is when my face will recover.

Besides, what if she is pregnant? It’s a real achievement if she can give birth to the child. And she has to be able to raise the child to pose a threat to me. She just got pregnant, why are you so scared?

You should quickly send someone to invite the imperial physician to come and see me. If my face doesn’t heal, everyone in Yonghe Palace will be buried with me.”

Concubine Jia didn't take Mu Sili's pregnancy too seriously. After all, she had just gotten pregnant, so there were plenty of opportunities for her to have a miscarriage.

Judging from Qianlong's favor for her, as long as she recovers and uses some tricks, she will be able to regain Mu Sili's favor. Then she will definitely take revenge.

"I will go and fetch the imperial physician right away."

Concubine Chun held a grudge against Mu Sili because of the eldest prince's incident, and she also hoped that she would have an abortion, but she thought that while the two sides quarreled, the other would benefit, so she did not take any action.

After hearing that Concubine Gao had sent a gift to Mu Sili, she followed suit and gave a gift to Mu Sili. The reason was that Emperor Qianlong was still in Chengqian Palace, and her doing so would make it easier for him to feel good about her.

In Chengqian Palace, Emperor Qianlong was in a daze for a long time after the imperial physician took Mu Sili's pulse and revealed the news of her pregnancy.

Even though people from Concubine Gao and Concubine Chun came to congratulate him one after another, he was still unable to recover from his surprise.

"Your Majesty, why do you look so unhappy? Are you unhappy that I am pregnant? Or do you think this child came at the wrong time and you don't want him?

I can tell you that this child is my precious treasure that I have been looking forward to for a long time. If you don't like him, you might as well banish me to the cold palace.

As for what bad things will happen to me after I go to the cold palace, that is the fate of me and my child. Your Majesty can just favor someone else."

When Qianlong heard this, he immediately came to his senses. He was so helpless. What was he talking about? Was he that kind of person?

This is the woman he loves most, and she is pregnant with the child he has been looking forward to for many years. How could he not like them and their child?

"Don't talk nonsense. I'm so happy I don't know what to do. I just think fate is amazing. I couldn't get pregnant before, but who would have thought I would get pregnant this time.

I can't wait to see this little thing. You can rest assured and take care of your pregnancy in Chengqian Palace. I will come to accompany you and the child every day. I will never let anything happen to you and your child!"

Qianlong was worried that someone would attack them mother and son, so he expressed his attitude directly in front of her. Mu Sili nodded with satisfaction.

"I knew that the Emperor cared about me. I haven't been pregnant for less than three months. How about keeping this news secret for now?"

Lanxiang and Haitang exchanged a glance. Isn't it a little late for Her Majesty to say this now? Both Concubine Gao and Concubine Chun have sent gifts. The news has obviously spread.

A sentence flashed through Qianlong's mind: a woman becomes stupid for three years after pregnancy. He seriously suspected that Mu Sili had started to become stupid from now on, otherwise why would she ask such a question.

"I guess this news can't be concealed anymore. Didn't you see that the Imperial Concubine and Concubine Chun both sent gifts? But I'm very curious, when did you become so close to them?

If I remember correctly, you haven't seen each other for nearly two weeks, and they weren't very friendly to you before. As expected, you are a generous person."
