"Your Majesty, please let someone bury this palace maid properly." When they learned about this, the palace maid had already died.
The emperor nodded, feeling deeply moved by Xu Lingyi's kindness. "Okay, I'll send some more silver to her family."
Xu Lingyi nodded and stroked her belly.
The emperor also put his hand on hers, "Don't worry, my beloved concubine. I won't let Minghua get close to you."
Xu Lingyi nodded and said with a smile: "Of course I believe Your Majesty. Besides, Your Majesty, the princess is not a bad person by nature. She won't necessarily do anything to me. Now that her sister is seriously ill, the princess should only be concerned about her mother and won't think of me."
When Xu Lingyi said that Princess Minghua was not a bad person by nature, she felt like vomiting.
The emperor nodded and said, "This pregnancy of yours is extremely important. It is never too careful."
"I've heard there are many casinos among the people. Can you guess whether this baby is a boy or a girl?"
The emperor nodded and said helplessly: "Some ministers also went to gamble, so don't feel pressured."
Sometimes when he looked at Xu's belly, which formed a sharp contrast with her frail body, he was worried that something might happen to her during childbirth.
He even thought that whether it was a boy or a girl would be left to fate, and it would be enough as long as Xu gave birth to the child safely.
But the Queen Mother stubbornly believed that this baby must be a boy, although she never said this to Xu for fear of putting pressure on her.
But in front of him, the Queen Mother was certain that this was the prince.
"I think the dream I had earlier was a clue. I dreamed of Jin Sun. Although that selection ended in failure and no one got pregnant, the concubine Zhang was chosen. Without her, you and Xu Shi would never have met. If Xu Shi hadn't entered the palace, she wouldn't have gotten pregnant. So this time, it must be a prince."
The Queen Mother prayed to the Buddha every day for the prince.
These emperors also knew that although the empress dowager had gained hope mentally and her body had improved a little during this period, she was still weak and still knelt before the Buddha every day and did not dare to interrupt.
Princess Minghua quickly entered the palace and went straight to her mother's residence.
“Mother!!” Seeing her haggard mother, Princess Minghua broke down in tears.
The emperor saw his daughter again after several months, and he felt sad to see her so sad.
It has become a habit for him to pamper Princess Minghua.
Ultimately, it’s because he has too few descendants, and each one is extremely precious.
"Your Majesty, His Majesty has sent a message that he will not be dining with you tonight. The princess has fainted from crying."
Xu Lingyi nodded, having already expected this.
After all, she is the emperor's biological daughter who has been held in his hands for more than ten years, and after all, Princess Minghua's knife has not yet fallen on the emperor himself.
When Princess Minghua deals with the child in her belly, the offspring that the emperor cares about most now, the emperor will feel the pain.
"Mammy, please don't make any moves on the part of the deposed concubine for the next two days. Just keep an eye on her and wait and see what happens."
