Chapter 163 Concubine Shu is pregnant
After saying that, Han Susu carried the child out of the room. Xixi lay on Han Susu's shoulder and looked at Sun Hao.
"Father………"
The waiter saw Han Susu coming out at the door and hurriedly apologized.
"Madam, the dish you specifically requested was accidentally spilled just now. I've asked the kitchen to prepare another one. Look..."
Han Susu heard this and spoke.
"No need to prepare, I have something urgent to do and need to go back first."
Seeing this, the waiter spoke with an embarrassed look on his face.
“But some dishes have already been prepared…”
Shuang'er walked up and took out the silver and handed it to the waiter.
"Take it."
Then he left with Han Susu.
Sun Hao looked at her back as she left with the child in her arms, and for a moment he didn't know what to do.
I really like Liu Qingqing, but Han Susu has a lot of money and resources.
Korean house.
As soon as she came back, Han Susu had someone carry Xixi away.
"Shuang'er, have someone keep an eye on the Sun family."
Shuang'er nodded.
"Boss, don't worry, we've got people watching us all the time."
Then he looked at Han Susu.
"Boss, what if Sun Hao softens his heart?"
A calculating look flashed in Han Susu's eyes when she heard this.
"He won't relent."
"He is an extremely selfish person who only cares about his own interests. The love between husband and wife and the love between father and son are all fake."
"Let's take a step back. Even if he really wants to be soft-hearted towards Liu Qingqing and he can't do it, then I will help him do it."
In the palace.
Because of the prince's incident, the queen had obviously lost a lot of weight.
Concubine Shu also came to visit.
"Your Highness, I know you're sad, but we have to get on with our lives. I heard you haven't eaten much in the past two days, so I've specially instructed the imperial kitchen to prepare your favorite dishes. Would you mind if I could accompany you to eat some?"
Nanny Fang also tried to persuade her.
"Your Majesty, just eat something. Look, the Concubine Shu has come to accompany you."
The queen looked at Concubine Shu and sighed.
"Shufei is thoughtful."
"I've been taking care of the Crown Prince's affairs these days. Your mother has come to the palace to accompany you. How is it? Is your mother used to living in this palace?"
After hearing this, Concubine Shu spoke with a grateful look on her face.
"Thank you for your concern, Queen. Mother is doing well in the palace. I would also like to thank you for allowing my mother to come to the palace to accompany me."
The queen listened and spoke gently.
"We are all sisters in the palace. You don't have to be so polite to me."
Concubine Shu raised her hand to serve the queen.
"Your Majesty, I see you've lost a lot of weight. Would you mind eating more today?"
The queen looked at the food in the bowl and reached out to pick it up.
"Since you've come to eat with me, I'm going to eat more today."
Seeing this, Nanny Fang finally smiled.
After leaving the Crown Prince's Palace, the Empress ate less, suffered from insomnia at night, and became increasingly thin. However, there was nothing she could do about it. Unexpectedly, today she was persuaded by Concubine Shu.
"My Lady Shufei, the Empress likes your personality very much. If you have time in the future, why not come and talk to her more often?"
Concubine Shu smiled and continued to serve food to the Queen.
"It is my honor to be able to accompany Your Majesty for dinner. As long as Your Majesty does not mind, I will come to disturb you often in the future."
The Queen looked at her.
"Don't just focus on serving food to me, you should eat too."
Upon hearing this, Concubine Shu picked up a piece of meat.
"Okay, I'll eat too. I'll obey the Empress."
But when the meat entered my mouth, my stomach started churning.
"vomit…………"
Seeing that Concubine Shu vomited all of a sudden.
The queen spoke hurriedly with concern.
"What's going on?"
"Someone, call the imperial physician quickly."
Nanny Fang was considerate enough to step forward and pour a glass of water for Concubine Shu.
"Empress Shufei, please drink some water."
After finally coming to have a meal with the Queen, she actually made a fool of herself. After drinking a glass of water, Concubine Shu finally felt better and looked at the Queen with an apologetic look.
"Your Majesty, I'm sorry, I..."
The Queen looked at her and spoke gently.
"What's there to apologize for? Are you feeling unwell? Didn't you eat anything wrong?"
Upon hearing this, Concubine Shu spoke.
"I haven't been feeling like greasy food lately, so I've been eating light meals. But when I saw the meat just now, I felt a little greedy and wanted to try a piece. I didn't expect..."
Then he looked at the queen with a look of surprise on his face.
"Your Majesty, do you think I am......"
Upon hearing this, the queen hurriedly gave orders.
"Lock core, hurry up and chase them out. The imperial physician, please ask for the imperial physician Feng who is treating me."
The Queen then took Concubine Shu's hand.
"If it really is there, it proves that the prescription is very useful, Concubine Shu, you will have someone to rely on in the future."
Upon hearing this, Concubine Shu hurriedly stood up and saluted the Queen.
"I have to thank you for your love for me, Your Majesty."
The queen hurriedly reached out to support her.
"Come and sit down. Stop bowing. It's all just empty formalities. I treat you as my sister. We sisters don't care about those things."
Soon the imperial physician arrived.
Take Concubine Shu's pulse.
"Congratulations, Your Majesty. Congratulations, Your Majesty, You are really pregnant. It has been over a month."
When Concubine Shu heard this, she was surprised and touched her belly.
"My child is finally back."
A hint of loss flashed across the queen's eyes, but her child was gone, so she quickly spoke with concern.
"Doctor Feng, Concubine Shu's child is healthy."
Doctor Feng bowed.
"In reply to the Empress, the Concubine Shu's pregnancy is stable and she should give birth to a healthy little master."
After hearing this, the Queen reached out and held Concubine Shu's hand, congratulating her with a smile on her face.
"Congratulations, sister, you finally got what you wanted."
Concubine Shu also held the Queen's hand with excitement.
"I have to thank the Queen for this."
The Queen pondered for a moment.
"Sister Shufei, for the safety of you and the child, this happy event must be reported to the Emperor immediately. It just so happens that your mother is still in the palace, so you can ask her to stay with you for a few more days until the baby is three months old."
Concubine Shu nodded. Being pregnant and having her mother by her side was something many women in the palace could not ask for.
"I will follow the Queen's arrangements."
The queen pulled her up.
"Come on, Your Majesty, you should be reviewing memorials in the Imperial Study right now. I will accompany you to see the Emperor."
In the imperial study.
The emperor looked at the memorial in his hand and couldn't help feeling upset. He threw the memorial hard on the table.
The eunuch serving in the room knelt down at once.
"Your Majesty, calm down."
Su Ping stepped forward and brought the emperor a cup of tea at just the right temperature.
"Your Majesty is tired from reviewing memorials. Please have a cup of tea and rest for a while."
Emperor Xuanyuan took a sip of tea from several cups, with a hint of anger on his face.
"The prince just died, and these people can't wait."
Su Ping glanced at the memorials on the table, all of which requested the emperor to make Prince Rong the crown prince. As a eunuch, he was not in a position to interfere in matters such as appointing a crown prince, so Su Ping bowed his head respectfully.
"Your Majesty, why don't you go out for a walk in the Imperial Garden? Relax!"
Emperor Xuanyuan glanced at the memorial on the table again and sighed.
"Alas, how can I have the mood to go to the Imperial Garden? These ministers are all rebelling."
"This Crown Prince is, after all, Prince Rong's elder brother. Although they are not born of the same mother, they are both my princes. Is Prince Rong so impatient to become the crown prince before his brother's body is even cold?"
He didn't dare to respond at all. Su Ping lowered his head and served more carefully.
Just then, a young eunuch came in and bowed respectfully.
"Your Majesty, the Empress and Consort Shu request an audience."
Emperor Xuanyuan frowned upon hearing this. What was the Empress doing here at this hour? And with Consort Shu? He waved his hand and invited them in.
The Queen and Consort Shu walked into the imperial study, and after paying their respects, the Queen began to speak.
"Your Majesty, I have a piece of good news to report."
Emperor Xuanyuan looked at the queen, and his voice softened as he saw her thin body.
"Oh? What's the good news?"
The queen turned to look at Concubine Shu, who lowered her head shyly. Only then did the queen speak.
"Sister Shufei is pregnant."
Emperor Xuanyuan was stunned when he heard this, then a look of joy appeared on his face.
"really?"
This is the emperor, he will never be short of children, the queen said with a virtuous look on her face.
"Today, Concubine Shu came to dine with me. I saw that she had morning sickness. I summoned the imperial physician to take her pulse. She is over a month pregnant."
The emperor's anger dissipated and a smile appeared on his face.
"Great! I have another child!"
The Queen suppressed her feeling of loss and was determined to protect Concubine Shu's baby. Now that Concubine Yao and her son were in power, only the Cui family could compete with her.
"Your Majesty, the last time Concubine Shu was pregnant, it was because of my negligence that I lost... Now that Concubine Shu is finally pregnant again, I am finally relieved, but I am also worried. Concubine Shu is simple-minded, and there are so many people in the palace who watch her."
Emperor Xuanyuan looked at the Queen.
"What do you mean, Queen?"
I would like to ask His Majesty to allow my sister Shufei's mother to stay with her in the palace until the baby is three months old. I also ask His Majesty to promote my sister Shufei to the rank of Imperial Concubine, so that my sister Shufei can rest assured and take care of her pregnancy."
