"Don't worry, Your Majesty. You never know, you might get pregnant someday."
As soon as the nanny finished speaking, a message came from outside the hall.
"Eunuch Wang? Ask him to come in. Perhaps there's something going on with Yuan'er?"
"Your servant pays respects to the Empress Dowager."
When the Empress Dowager saw the uncontrollable joy on Eunuch Wang's face, she had an inexplicable guess in her mind.
Just not sure.
"Yuan'er sent you here, is there something wrong?"
The Empress Dowager couldn't help but turn the Buddhist beads in her hand, and the pressure she pressed became a little stronger.
"The imperial physician came to take the princess's pulse today and confirmed she's pregnant!"
The Queen Mother stood up suddenly and walked towards Eunuch Wang. "But is it true?"
"Absolutely true."
"Mother! Mother!"
The Empress Dowager was so happy that she fell backwards for a moment.
Fortunately, Eunuch Wang was quick-witted and quickly supported him.
"Nothing!"
The Empress Dowager's voice trembled, her eyes reddened. "Nothing's wrong. I'm just too happy. I've finally been waiting for this day."
"What did the imperial physician say?"
"How many months?"
………
After the Empress Dowager's series of questions, even Eunuch Wang couldn't help but sweat on his forehead.
Fortunately, on the way here, he guessed that there would be many problems and made some assumptions in advance.
Eunuch Wang answered them one by one.
The Empress Dowager gradually calmed down and her voice no longer trembled.
But it can still be seen that she is extremely happy and excited.
"Help me get to the palace quickly. I want to see Yi'er with my own eyes. Pregnancy is no small matter. You must take good care of her... You must not let anything happen to her or my grandson."
The nanny beside her was secretly laughing in her heart. She thought that the Queen's anger should be completely gone now, and she and the Princess should be able to get along as before.
"Your Highness, it's too late today. The prince has specifically instructed you not to go. He and the princess will come to the palace in person to pay you a visit tomorrow."
The Empress Dowager looked out the window and saw that it was indeed late at night.
"good."
After sending Eunuch Wang away, the Empress Dowager went directly to the Buddhist temple, burned incense reverently, and then knelt down in front of the Buddha.
"Please bless my daughter-in-law, may the birth go smoothly and both mother and child be safe."
………
The Empress Dowager turned her Buddhist beads and kept muttering to herself.
————
"If your mother has any difficulty with you, please tell the maid to call me. I will go right over and ask Wang Shoude to accompany you."
In the carriage, Qi Yuan held her hand and reminded her again.
"Your Majesty, you think too much."
Xu Lingyi let go of his hand. Ever since he knew she was pregnant, Qi Yuan had become extra careful with her affairs, not only in terms of her diet.
He always seemed to feel that others would bully her.
There are so many things to think about, some of them are even bizarre.
"The Empress Dowager is your mother, and I am pregnant with your child. How could she embarrass me?"
"My mother probably won't do that. At most, she'll say a few embarrassing words, but there might be some cunning servants around her who are trying to stir things up. You can only judge a person by their appearance, not their true heart..."
Xu Lingyi directly covered his mouth, her ears could no longer bear it.
Qi Yuan's instructions never stopped from early in the morning.
"How dare we? I think you're worrying too much. I've only just gotten pregnant, and you're acting like this. There are still eight months left. What are you going to do?"
Xu Lingyi woke up in the middle of the night and found that Qi Yuan was still awake.
Seeing that she woke up and wanted to get up at night, he couldn't help but speak.
She said that she wanted to check all the people who served her in the mansion one by one, and even wanted to put their families in a centralized place and restrict them.
"This way, those who serve you will never dare to have second thoughts. This king has made up his mind..."
Xu Lingyi shook her head and yawned, "I'm so sleepy, Your Majesty. Let's talk about it tomorrow."
As a result, early this morning, she was held in Qi Yuan's arms, and he told her about his plans bit by bit...
Only then did she realize that Qi Yuan had not slept all night.
In the end, Xu Lingyi covered her ears.
When she arrived at the palace, she felt for the first time that the Empress Dowager and Qi Yuan were really mother and son.
She could have just told Qi Yuan not to say anything about his instructions.
But the Empress Dowager is the elder.
The Empress Dowager had some opinions about her before, but now she holds her hand so affectionately.
He treated her so warmly and kindly that it was impossible for her to say anything.
He nodded in agreement one by one.
"I always feel uneasy, as if I'm dreaming. I have been waiting for so many years. The late emperor and I have been hoping that Yuan'er can have his own child, but this bastard is impossible to get married."
"Now it has finally become a reality... If the late emperor knew about this, he would probably be so happy in his dreams from the underworld..."
"When you're pregnant, you need to pay extra attention to your diet, especially during the first three months. Besides diet, you also need to pay attention to your mood..."
Xu Lingyi listened attentively, and nodded obediently whenever the Empress Dowager said something.
Even though she had heard these words from Qi Yuan once before today, she still pretended to hear them for the first time and expressed her gratitude.
So before coming out of the Empress Dowager's palace, Qi Yuan saw his mother holding Xu Lingyi reluctantly.
"If I were younger, I would definitely live in the palace and take care of you personally, and not let anything happen to you."
"Now I can only send the most valued nanny by my side to your side and ask her to look after you on behalf of the Queen Mother."
The Empress Dowager sounded somewhat disappointed as she spoke, but Xu Lingyi felt a little relieved.
The Empress Dowager was a very nice person, but she still preferred not to live with her elders.
