It’s actually the daughter of the Xiao family!
Upon hearing this, the Empress Dowager wished she could go back to the palace and slap Emperor Qianyuan a few times!
"Master Ci'en, the daughter of the Xiao family is already married to another man. I can't possibly marry her to bring good luck, nor can I make her my concubine!"
Wouldn't the Xiao family rebel if we did this?
"Empress Dowager, I didn't ask her to marry in to bring good luck. Only she can snatch the eldest prince back from the hands of the King of Hell. Once the doom is over, the eldest prince will be blessed with many children and grandchildren and a long and prosperous life."
"You mean that if the Xiao family girl appears beside Yu'er, Yu'er will be out of danger?"
"Exactly!"
"Is there no other way?"
The Empress Dowager didn't want to put Xiao Lingyu in an awkward situation. She could have been Yu'er's principal wife, but now she had to appear next to Yu'er without any status or position.
There will inevitably be rumors and gossips, and the girl from the Xiao family will never be able to bear this grievance.
"There is no other way, only the daughter of the Xiao family. If there is nothing else, I will take my leave."
The Empress Dowager nodded, and Master Ci'en left the room.
When Li Haiying heard Master Ci'en coming, he hurriedly followed him. He was afraid of being discovered by Fu Xuan and did not hear the conversation in the room at all.
"Master Ci'en, please stay."
Master Ci'en turned around and looked at Li Haiying in confusion, "Your Majesty, do you have anything else to ask me?"
"I am Eunuch Ying, the emperor's personal steward. The emperor is very concerned about the queen mother's health and doesn't want her to worry too much. There are some things that may be difficult for the queen mother to do. If the emperor knew about it, he would arrange for someone to help the queen mother share her worries."
The implication is, tell him quickly, what did the Empress Dowager say to you?
Li Haiying looked at Master Ci'en without blushing or beating his heart.
Master Ci'en pursed his lips and said, "It is indeed a bit difficult at this moment. The Empress Dowager will inform the Emperor when she returns to the palace. Just be patient and wait."
Seeing that the empress dowager looked tired, Fu Xuan turned and went out, and came back with a bowl of calming soup.
"Empress Dowager, I believe that Master Ci'en has predicted that the princess will have good news within a month, and she is pregnant with a young prince?"
"That's the Crown Prince."
"Yes, yes, it's the Crown Prince."
Fu Xuan saw the Empress Dowager drink the tranquilizing soup, "It's a good thing that the princess can conceive a boy, Empress Dowager. Why do I feel that you are not very happy?"
Can she be happy?
Yu'er cannot survive this crisis, and the little prince is still too young. How long can she, at her age, protect him in her dreams?
"What's Princess Xiao's current situation?"
Fu Xuan was a little confused. Why was he asking about Princess Xiao?
"The Xiao family has been rehabilitated. Princess Xiao now lives with her husband, Prince Shun, who was granted the title of the opposite sex by the Emperor. The Emperor granted the Princess Huguo Mansion in Huayang County. She is now several months pregnant."
She's still pregnant!
"Send someone to Huayang County to check if the baby is about to be born?"
"Is it too early for Empress Dowager Xiao and Princess Xiao to give birth?"
The Queen Mother asked in confusion, "How do you know?"
"This old servant went to the Western Territory to fetch the prince. I heard from Xu Mo and the others that Prince Shun was previously blind and had difficulty walking. Princess Xiao married him and used the medical skills she had learned during her three years of mourning to cure him."
"What? She even made an appointment for medical treatment?"
"Yes! It can't be fake! The prince went to see Princess Xiao as soon as he came out of the dungeon. It was Princess Xiao who cured the prince. The prince caught a cold in Yongcheng and it wouldn't get better. It was the prescription sent by Xiao Lingyu that cured him. However, it didn't work on the way back to the capital. Oh, Xu Mo even wanted to send the prince to Huayang County on the way back so that Princess Xiao could take his pulse in person."
"Then why didn't you send Yu'er there?!" The Empress Dowager was anxious and angry.
No wonder Master Ci'en said she could save Yu'er's life!
"Queen Dowager, calm down!" Fu Xuan wondered why the Queen Dowager had suddenly become so furious. "The prince forbad us to send him to Huayang County, saying that Princess Xiao was pregnant and had no energy to see a doctor. Also, the prescription Princess Xiao had given her previously wasn't working, and that her previous cure for the prince might have been an accident."
Upon hearing this, the Empress Dowager took a sip of her cold tea and said, "If you had sent Yu'er to Huayang Territory halfway, Princess Xiao wouldn't have had to return to the capital with such a big belly."
"What?" Fu Xuan thought he had misheard. "Are you summoning Princess Xiao back to the capital to see the prince?"
"That's right! Hurry up and inform them of the schedule to return to Beijing tomorrow morning!"

"Aqiong, have you found out what the Queen Mother asked Master Ci'en to calculate?"
Nanny Qiong smiled and said, "It seems that they are asking about the prince's offspring, and whether the princess can have a son at once."
Du Xingruo said, "This isn't even worth asking Master Ci'en. I can tell at a glance that Xie Wanyi's first child is a boy. Does the Queen Mother have anything else to ask?"
"I can't find out anything. Maybe it's all about the prince. After all, the Queen Mother is very close to the prince."
"Aqiong, you are right. The Queen Mother cares more about Yu'er than I do. I am not a competent mother."
"My Lady, please don't say that. You care about the Prince very much..."
"Your Majesty." At this time, the head palace maid entered the room, "The Empress Dowager asked us to pack up and leave for the capital early tomorrow morning."
So fast?
"Go tell the Queen Mother that Huangjue Temple is taking care of someone and that I'm going to stay here for a few more days."
After the head maid left, she returned not long after, "Your Majesty, the Queen Mother is worried about you staying here."
Du Xingruo didn't hold out much hope to begin with. "Then you guys should tidy up well..."

Feng Jinyu took the Seven-Day Ecstasy Powder, but her condition did not worsen nor improve, and she remained in the same injured state as after the intense sexual intercourse on the third day.
Lu Kan had to spend a lot of energy every time he gave acupuncture. If he was not careful, Feng Jinyu's health would deteriorate rapidly.
After giving the acupuncture, Mr. Lu went to see Xie Wanyi.
"How are you today? Is the prince feeling better?"
"Your Highness is still in the same condition as that day, neither worse nor better?"
Xie Wanyi frowned, "How long will this state last? When will we be able to return to the state before we got married?"
"It will take at least three months to recover to the state before the marriage?"
Xie Wanyi pressed her eyebrows. In the past few days, not only had the people from the Anguo Mansion failed to find the whereabouts of the Second Prince, but the Third and Fourth Princes had also failed to find anything wrong.
This villain is cunning!
"Princess, you can't worry. You need to calm down. If you are pregnant, the prince will be happy and your body will be back to its pre-marriage state in less than three months."
Yes, the most important thing for her now is to get pregnant with the prince’s child.
Xie Wanyi showed her wrist, and Ziyu quickly took out a thin brocade handkerchief and placed it on her wrist.
Mr. Lu listened to the pulse carefully for a long time.
"How is Mr. Lu? Is my princess pregnant?" Zi Yu asked hurriedly.
"It's not clear yet. It will take at least half a month. However, I have diagnosed that the princess has had some difficulty sleeping recently and is restless. This is not conducive to pregnancy."
"Mr. Lu, I understand and will calm down."
Zi Yu sent Elder Lu away and returned, "Princess, don't worry, the prince will definitely get better."
