"This is not a matter for a palace maid." Yun Hua said lightly.
"If she's not a palace maid, then what is she? The emperor is so reluctant to let her go. Could it be that he really likes that palace maid and wants to take her into the harem? Or does the emperor just like to hide in the Purple Palace and enjoy the company of his beautiful wife?" Concubine Zhao naturally refused.
"Hongxiu adds fragrance to his life?" Yun Hua raised an eyebrow. Was he tired of being the emperor, asking Bai Can to add fragrance to his life? Was Concubine Zhao the victim of another scheme?
Even the people around him dared to make up stories. Yun Hua rubbed his temples. The former dynasty and the harem were always restless!
Bai Can naturally would not really go to Chongqing Palace to ask the Queen. After leaving the main hall of Jiale Palace, he called the secret guards to find out who made Concubine Zhao set her sights.
Yun Hua was impatient to continue arguing with Concubine Zhao, so after finishing his meal, he said he had something to do and went back to Zichen Palace.
When they arrived at the Zichen Palace, Yun Hua waved his hand to let everyone else go.
"Who has this idea?" Yun Hua asked.
"The Empress Shufei has been pregnant for a month. Yesterday morning, she had a few arguments with Concubine Zhao when she was paying respects in Chongqing Palace. This morning, after paying respects, Concubine Zhao heard two eunuchs chatting on the way back to Jiale Palace. The head maid in Zichen Palace is even more beautiful than Concubine Zhao and has been with the Emperor for many years." Bai Can knew that Yun Hua would ask this as soon as he returned to Zichen Palace.
"The Concubine Shu is pregnant, but she has kept it a secret." Yun Hua was a little surprised to hear that the Concubine Shu was pregnant. After all, he had no children.
The empress was chosen by the late emperor, and he was supposed to get married when he was seventeen. However, the empress's mother suddenly fell ill and died. He observed mourning for three years. Out of respect for his wife, he did not take concubines.
The Empress had just come out of mourning when the late Emperor passed away. As time went by, he was now twenty-four and still childless.
One month after the wedding, Concubine Zhao Guifei, Concubine Shu and other talented people entered the palace one after another.
More than half a year after the marriage, there was still no news from the Queen's side, and the first person to announce the pregnancy was actually Concubine Shu.
"Is it only Concubine Shu?" Yun Hua asked.
"The two eunuchs who sweep the floor are both on duty in the Imperial Garden. Xiao Mingzi has a fellow townsman who works in the Weiyang Palace, and Xiao Hezi has a sister who works in the Anyang Palace. The Queen is also two months pregnant. There has been no laundry in the Zhilan Palace this month, and the Queen knows about it."
"The Queen is already over two months pregnant? She's quite capable. I don't need to worry about this." Yun Hua was so angry that he laughed. He wasn't a womanizer, and although there weren't many women in his harem, he hadn't left any of them out. The women in his harem really weren't to be underestimated.
