Xu Lingyi nodded.
Nanny Zhang was still standing there in a daze, unable to believe it.
Who could have imagined this? No one in His Majesty's harem has been pregnant for so many years, and only one imperial concubine gave birth to Princess Minghua.
So how could she dare to hope that her master would get pregnant?
But now that she saw Xu Lingyi nod, she thought about it carefully.
"Your Highness has indeed not changed your clothes this month. This has been delayed for a long time."
Nanny Zhang also began to recall.
She had never thought about pregnancy before. Who could have imagined that His Majesty's concubine could be pregnant?
She just thought that her master wanted to stay cool recently, so she postponed it for many days.
"Master, are you...are you really sure?" Nanny Zhang was still in a daze. This matter was too important and she was afraid of making a mistake.
Xu Lingyi nodded: "Don't worry, Ma'am, I'm absolutely sure. It's just that the baby is still young, so the pregnancy isn't obvious yet."
Nanny Zhang also understood her master well.
Before she accompanied Xu Lingyi into the palace, Madam Xu was always worried that Xu Lingyi would be harmed in the palace and felt that her master would not be able to survive in this palace.
But after spending some time with her, Nanny Zhang felt that Madam Xu was completely overthinking it.
Although Xu Lingyi is young, she acts very maturely and steadily, is far-sighted, and never does anything without confidence.
She was completely convinced of Xu Lingyi.
At this moment, Aunt Zhang believed it and became excited.
"Miss!!"
Since she entered the palace, Aunt Zhang had always called her "Empress", but she had changed the title long ago.
But now she could no longer hold back, her voice trembling and choked with sobs: "Now, Madam, you can rest assured. The young lady has someone to rely on for the rest of her life. If it's a princess, given His Majesty's love for Princess Minghua, I'm sure he will treat the young lady's child well..."
In fact, like Madam Xu, Nanny Zhang was not optimistic about Xu Lingyi entering the palace.
Although the palace is the richest place in the world, the emperor cannot give birth.
Entering the palace means having no one to rely on for the rest of your life.
But now Xu Lingyi is pregnant, so at least she will have someone to rely on for the rest of her life.
The situation changed in an instant.
"If...if it was a prince!!" Nanny Zhang was so excited that her hands were shaking.
She didn't dare to think further.
If his mistress was pregnant with a prince, then Princess Minghua and the princes in the royal family would not be a threat.
Even the emperor and the empress dowager had to praise Xu Lingyi.
When the prince grows up healthy, she doesn't even dare to think about the future of her master.
"I dare not even think about it." Aunt Zhang's face flushed with joy, and her eyes narrowed into slits.
She tried to lower her voice, but her joy couldn't be suppressed.
Xu Lingyi smiled and looked at Aunt Zhang: "You can think about it, Aunt. Maybe it really is a prince."
This was indeed a prince, and what she took was a fertility pill.
But Aunt Zhang is still Aunt Zhang.
She calmed down quickly.
She knew that the lady had specially allowed her to enter the palace so that she could help the master.
She couldn't get carried away, let alone get excited.
Her hopes are too high now. If he is not a prince in the future, she is afraid that her master will be disappointed.
So Nanny Zhang quickly spoke up, "Yes, a prince would be best, but if it's a princess, Your Majesty is not afraid. After all, if you can have a first child, you can naturally have a second child as well. It's also possible for the baby to blossom before it bears fruit. Your Majesty can just go with the flow now."
Xu Lingyi was at a loss for words. Nanny Zhang adjusted herself so quickly and even comforted her.
Xu Lingyi nodded: "Don't worry, Madam. I love both the prince and the princess. Let's keep it a secret for now. Don't even tell Chunhua. It's not that I don't trust Chunhua, but she's not as steady as you. I'm afraid she'll be too happy and won't be able to hide it at all. She's still a little pregnant."
Nanny Zhang nodded quickly, "Of course. I'll calm down and leave as soon as I can. I won't let anyone else notice. Now, Your Majesty, remember that everything is for the heir to be the most important. As long as the heir is there, Princess Minghua won't matter."
Xu Lingyi nodded.
"If Madam knew that the young lady was pregnant, I wonder how happy she would be. Ever since the young lady entered the palace, Madam has been worried."
Xu Lingyi felt a pang of sadness in her heart, as she knew that her entering the palace had made her father and mother sad.
"Mother might be more worried." Xu Lingyi said.
If she didn't have children, Madam Xu would worry that she would have no one to rely on in the future. In the deep palace, it was impossible for anyone to be favored forever, and it would be very difficult to survive without children.
But if she got pregnant, as a mother, Mrs. Xu would still be worried that she would die during childbirth.
Everyone knows that giving birth for a woman is like going through the gates of hell.
Many women died here.
"Don't let mother know yet."
Aunt Zhang nodded and said, "We'll definitely have to wait until you're a little older. It's best not to let anyone know for the first three months, so the fetus will be more stable."
Xu Lingyi was not worried about not being able to give birth. She was sure that the child would be born. Although her physical constitution was not strong, this child was conceived after taking the fertility pill. Xu Lingyi inexplicably felt very confident in her heart.

Ever since I found out Xu Lingyi was pregnant.
Although Nanny Zhang tried hard to control herself, no one could see her joy from the outside.
But Aunt Zhang treated Xu Lingyi as a key protected person.
She was solely responsible for everything from food, clothing, housing and transportation, and even checked everything over and over again.
Such a nervous attitude made Qiushi nervous. She was even afraid that Aunt Zhang had noticed something.
That day Qiushi hurriedly spread the news.
When Li Guiren and the imperial concubine learned about this, they also frowned.
