With various thoughts swirling in her mind, Qingyin was already eight months pregnant. Yinzhen asked Lady Nian to come and take care of Qingyin.
Madam Nian looked at Qingyin, who was still pampered and had a rosy complexion, with a smile. She then glanced at Qingyin's big belly and said with a smile, "You also have two bodies, so you can't be as lazy as before. Pregnant women still need to move around, otherwise you will suffer a lot when you give birth, Shilan."
Qingyin waved her hand, pouted and said coquettishly, "Mom, I know, I'll lie down for a while before I leave."
Mrs. Nian smiled, looking at her eldest daughter who still loved to act spoiled as before. She affectionately tucked away the stray strands of hair for her and then began knitting a little dress for her future grandson.
"Your Majesty, Consort Geng requests an audience. (Consort Duan)"
Qingyin turned to look at the somewhat guilty maid. This maid was from the Yong Prince's mansion and was originally quite honest, but in the past few days she had clearly become more restless. Qingyin sensitively noticed the guilty and ashamed look in her eyes. Had she been bribed? She just didn't know who it was.
Seeing that the maid was clearly more anxious than before and had not made a sound, Qingyin smiled and said, "Let Geng Gege in."
Seeing Madam Nian's bewildered look, Qingyin smiled and explained that Geng Gege was the daughter of General Hu Ben.
Madam Nian nodded, somewhat curious about this young lady from a prominent family who was also the daughter of an important official.
However, Geng Yuebin clearly did not disappoint them. As Yinzhen's first concubine, Geng Yuebin was a rare beauty, especially with the arrogance between her brows that added to her charm.
However, the glint in her eyes undoubtedly revealed that this Geng Gege was different from the original owner; she was clearly a smart and beautiful woman.
Geng Yuebin was surprised that Consort Nian, whom she hadn't seen for so long, had agreed to her request. She glanced curiously at the woman above.
A single glance could last a lifetime. Geng Yuebin had never imagined that there could be a kind of beauty in the world that could so aggressively and dazzlingly capture everyone's attention. Pregnant women should become less attractive to some extent, but the woman before him had flawless skin, bright eyes and white teeth, rosy lips and a face full of grace and charm... No words could adequately describe her captivating beauty. All of this left Geng Yuebin stunned on the spot.
I don't know what to say.
Seeing the stunned Geng Yuebin, Qingyin smiled faintly and said, "What brings you here, Sister Geng?"
Seeing that his dull and ugly appearance had been discovered, Geng Yuebin's face flushed red, and he lowered his head shyly. No wonder the prince favored her so much. If she were a man, he would dote on her just as much!
Realizing what a bold statement she had made, Geng Yuebin's face flushed even more, a blush spreading across her cool and beautiful face, making her look somewhat silly. She forced herself to remain calm and said, "Sister Nian is pregnant. My family has an ancestral medicine for preventing miscarriage, which is very good for pregnant women and will also be beneficial during childbirth. Why don't you give it a try, Sister Nian?"
A palace maid nearby then brought out a dish of white porcelain soup.
Is this the abortion pill that harmed the original owner? Qingyin listened to the warning sound that rang in her mind like an alarm, and began to doubt the bowl of medicine.
In her previous life, she was sent by Yinzhen. In this life, Yinzhen had no such intention. So who was it that did it? Qingyin glanced meaningfully at the flustered maid.
She said calmly, "Thank you very much, Sister Geng, but the physician said I'm in good health and don't need any medicine, so please don't trouble yourself."
Geng Yuebin was momentarily disappointed after being rejected, but the sight of the incredibly beautiful Qingyin rekindled his fighting spirit. He then returned to his courtyard, satisfied with the bowl of abortion medicine that had been replaced, after managing to make Madam Nian happy and keeping her entertained for a long time.
Seeing that Geng Yuebin meant no harm, Qingyin felt relieved, lest she help the wrong person. As for the abortion medicine, it couldn't be found on her, otherwise even if Geng Yuebin, who wasn't involved, was found out, Yinzhen would still be angry. Thinking of this, Qingyin decided to give Geng Yuebin a hint. Geng Yuebin was a smart person, and she only needed to give her a subtle reminder, and she would understand.
Thinking it over, Qingyin also carefully browsed through the cheats and cheat codes in the system shop. Dream Space was no good, the human skin mask was no good and she didn't need it, the cleaning artifact was no good... When she flipped to the mind-reading halo at the back, Qingyin's eyes lit up. This thing is not bad. As long as you have bad intentions towards someone, the wearer will hear the other person's thoughts. Not bad, 100 points, quite cheap, I'll buy it.
Qingyin, who bought the Mind-Reading Halo, directly bound it to Geng Yuebin.
At night, Geng Yuebin returned to the courtyard and looked at the returned medicine with some distress. She had no use for the medicine and was afraid she would have to throw it away. It was a pity that it contained such precious medicinal materials.
[What to do? The concubine didn't take the abortion medicine at all. How am I going to explain this to the principal wife?]
……!
Before she could even wonder what was going on with the conversation, Geng Yuebin, already shocked by what she heard, looked coldly at Yu Yuan'er, the personal maid she had valued since she entered the manor.
"Master, what's wrong?"
[What's going on? Why is Master suddenly looking at me like that?]
Looking at Yu Yuan'er, whose voice was clearly different from hers, Geng Yuebin suppressed his anger and asked with a smile, "I'm just feeling a little sad because the concubine rejected me. I don't know if I should still go and visit her."
"Your Highness, since the concubine has met you, she must have developed feelings for you. Your Highness need not be sad."
"So that's why. Of course you have to go, otherwise who will carry out the Princess's scheme?"
Looking at Yu Yuan'er, who seemed loyal and speaking up for her, Geng Yuebin felt a chill in her heart. If it weren't for this sudden supernatural power, would she have become someone else's pawn and died without even knowing how?
Thinking of this, Geng Yuebin casually made up an excuse to send Yu Yuan'er away, leaving her alone. He poured the medicine into the pot of his orchid, his eyes filled with an unreadable expression.

A month later, Qingyin looked at the completely transformed maidservant following behind Geng Yuebin, nodded knowingly, and greeted Geng Yuebin.
Looking at Qingyin, who hadn't shown any signs of affection in front of her, Geng Yuebin's sincere liking deepened. As expected of the stunningly beautiful Consort Nian, she was both beautiful and kind-hearted.
However, thinking of Qingyin, who almost lost her child in her hands, a hint of guilt appeared in her eyes. Fortunately, Sister Nian did not accept it that day; otherwise, she would probably never have been able to eat or sleep peacefully for the rest of her life.
Thinking of this, she supported Qingyin even more attentively. After walking a few steps, Qingyin felt a familiar wetness running down her legs. Looking at Geng Yuebin, who was still planning to help her a few more steps, she said, "I think I'm going into labor."
"It's good that she's given birth! What? She's about to give birth!" Geng Yuebin looked up blankly, but before she and Madam Nian could react, a young eunuch dressed as a eunuch immediately picked up Qingyin and carried her to the prepared delivery room.
