Chapter 228 The throne of empress can only be hers!
I didn't expect the Heavenly Book to be so considerate!
Could it be that an electronic screen like the Heavenly Book would also radiate to the fetus?
In any case, she would use the Heavenly Book less to read novels in the future. The most important thing is to rest assured and take care of the fetus.
While Shen Chaoyan was thinking, the waiter brought over several dishes that the kitchen had just made.
Sikong Yan immediately gave her her favorite tender bamboo shoots, "Come on, eat more."
"Yeah."
Shen Chaoyan ate a few pieces of fresh bamboo shoots, raised her eyes and looked at the man, "By the way, should I write a letter to tell my parents about my pregnancy?"
After all, it was good news, and she wanted to share it with her family as soon as possible.
Sikong Yan met her gaze and murmured for a moment, "Let's tell them when we get back."
"Okay."
Shen Chaoyan thought about it. After all, she was pregnant with the heir of the emperor. In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, it would be safer to announce the news after returning to Beijing.
So, after resting in the inn for a night, they changed to the water route. They
arrived in the capital five or six days later than originally expected.
When the queen mother heard the news that they had returned to the palace, she personally led a group of concubines to the palace gate to greet them.
When she saw that Sikong Yan and Shen Chaoyan were safe and sound, the queen mother's anxious heart finally settled down.
"Emperor, you have lost weight. It must have been very hard on the journey?"
"I am sorry to have worried you, mother. I am fine. This trip to the south of the Yangtze River was quite rewarding. However, Prince Huaishun Rong Aotian unfortunately passed away. I wonder if the capital has received the news?"
Sikong Yan mentioned this and glanced at the crowd, but did not see Rong Xueshi. The empress dowager
nodded slightly, "I heard about it, but Rong Zhaoyi has not been in good health recently and has been recuperating in Yongning Palace. She doesn't know about this yet." "
Then let's talk about it when she gets better." Sikong Yan did not talk about this topic any more, but told the empress dowager that Shen Chaoyan was pregnant.
"Is Concubine Hua pregnant? When did it happen?"
The empress dowager immediately turned her gaze to Shen Chaoyan's lower abdomen, her eyes full of surprise.
Although there are not many people in Sikong Yan's harem, if you count carefully, there are much more than the three wives and four concubines of an ordinary family.
But for such a long time, the woman in the harem has not been pregnant.
She even once suspected that there was something wrong with Sikong Yan's body.
Fortunately, now that Shen Chaoyan is pregnant, she can finally put her worries aside.
Shen Chaoyan met the empress dowager's inquiring gaze and took the initiative to answer, "About a month."
"Great! This is such a great joy!" The empress dowager said, turning her head to Suqiu beside her and said, "There are many supplements in my storehouse. You can pick some more and send them to the Biyan Palace today."
"Yes!"
The empress dowager said again, "You have come a long way, so don't stand here. The dining room has already prepared lunch, let's go and have a meal!"
Soon, everyone in the palace knew the good news.
Shen Chaoyan returned to the Biyan shop, and before he could even sit down, the rewards from Sikong Yan and the empress dowager came one after another.
Shen Chaoyan looked at the trays in the hands of the palace maids and eunuchs, and reached out to touch her lower abdomen.
Unexpectedly, she had just gotten pregnant, and her baby had already secured money for milk powder.
What a good baby who was born with wealth!
Rong Xueshi, who was recuperating in Yongning Palace, had already learned from the palace maids that Shen Chaoyan was pregnant.
"She is pregnant?"
"Yes, I heard many people talking about this on the way back from the Imperial Hospital! They all said that Concubine Hua is now pregnant with a dragon seed and may be crowned as the queen at any time!"
No!
The position of the queen can only be hers!
However, she knew that as long as Shen Chaoyan was still in the harem, she would never be able to make a breakthrough.
Rong Xueshi narrowed her eyes, and a hint of determination flashed in her eyes.
Now there is only one chance for her to turn things around, and she must pull Shen Chaoyan down from the position of concubine no matter what!
Feiyan Palace.
Shen Chaoyan had just finished her lunch break when the Heavenly Book suddenly appeared in front of her.
[Ding! Host, please be careful, Rong Zhaoyi wants to harm you!]
Shen Chaoyan: [What is she up to now?]
Heavenly Book: [During the time when we were out of the palace, she often went to Huifei's Changle Palace and had a hot relationship with the little princess. This time, she wants to use the little princess to frame you.]
Shen Chaoyan is not used to her: [Since she wants to die, I will fulfill her wish!]
If Rong Xueshi fought with her openly, she could still respect Rong Xueshi as a man.
But this woman actually set her sights on a child, which is really unforgivable!
In Changle Palace, Huifei was embroidering with her head down, wanting to embroider a handkerchief for her daughter.
The embroidery was her daughter's favorite rabbit pattern.
"Hiss!"
The needle in her hand slipped and pierced the index finger of her left hand.
Concubine Hui looked at the bloody finger, put the fingertip into her mouth and sucked the blood.
She was about to continue embroidering the rabbit's paw.
At this moment, a figure rushed into Changle Palace in a panic.
"No, no!"
Concubine Hui looked at the little palace maid who rushed in, and her eyelids twitched twice for no reason, "What's wrong?"
"Your Majesty, the little princess is missing!"
"What did you say?"
Concubine Hui was excited, and the embroidery needle in her hand pierced her fingertip again.
But this time, she seemed to feel no pain at all, "Where did she disappear? You should take me to find her right away!"
However, she and several palace maids and eunuchs searched the Yu Garden, but could not find the little princess.
Just when Concubine Hui was getting anxious, Rong Xueshi came with her personal maid to the Yu Garden to pick flowers.
"I've met Sister Hui."
Seeing that Concubine Hui was focused on finding the little princess and didn't notice her, Rong Xueshi deliberately walked in front of her to show her presence.
Concubine Hui immediately grabbed her when she saw her, "Rong Zhaoyi, Mingyang usually likes to play with you the most. Did you see her today?"
Rong Xueshi's eyes flickered and she shook her head, "No, what happened? Is Princess Mingyang missing?"
Concubine Hui nodded anxiously, "Yes, she was making a fuss about coming to Yu Garden at noon, but she disappeared in the blink of an eye."
Rong Xueshi rolled her eyes and said, "Princess Mingyang likes to play hide-and-seek. Could she be hiding somewhere?"
The palace maid standing behind Rong Xueshi immediately agreed, "I just seemed to see a small figure going in that direction!"
She pointed in the direction of the Piyan Palace.
Concubine Hui was eager to find her daughter, so she led the people around her in that direction without thinking too much.
She found the entrance of the Piyan Palace, hesitated for a moment, and rushed into the Piyan Palace.
Shen Chaoyan had known that she would come, and was sitting under a big tree, enjoying the cool air while waiting for her.
Seeing the person coming, Shen Chaoyan slowly raised her eyes and looked at her, "Sister Huifei, are you looking for me?"
Huifei looked at her, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Sister, have you seen my daughter come here? She was playing hide-and-seek just now and disappeared while running. If you see her, please let me know."
"I..."
Before Shen Chaoyan could reply, Rong Xueshi, who came with Huifei, spoke up, "Children run fast, Sister Huafei may not notice them. Why don't we go in and look for them!"
Shen Chaoyan's eyes fell on Rong Xueshi's face and stared at her for two or three seconds.
Rong Xueshi felt a little guilty when she was looked at by her. She wanted to say something more, but she heard Shen Chaoyan speak slowly, "Okay, you guys go find it!" Rong Xueshi
rushed in and rushed to Shen Chaoyan's bedroom first.
