Chen Fu looked at Qin Yi with suspicion. Could the aborted child be his?
Thinking of this, her heart became even colder, and she must get rid of Shen Shuyi!
Now is definitely not the time to fall out.
Qin Yi looked at Shen Fu's changing expression. He didn't know when Shen Fu changed. All the thoughts he had spent on her in the past seemed like a joke.
I thought she was a considerate, elegant and generous person, but unexpectedly she was actually a willful and jealous girl!
"Okay, that's enough for today. I don't want you to be so aggressive next time."
Chen Fu looked at Qin Yi's ruthless back as he left, and she was furious, "Am I the one who is being aggressive?!"
"Aren't you going too far?!"
“If you hadn’t found Shen Shuyi from the countryside, how could she have entered the palace and become the emperor’s favorite concubine?!”
Qin Yi's expression became completely gloomy. He stopped and turned to look at Chen Fu, "Who did I bring her to the capital for?!"
He waved his sleeves and left, but he didn't expect that Chen Fu was even more obsessed with the fish than he imagined.
Qin Yi returned to the Prince's Mansion and immediately summoned his staff to discuss the matter. Since the emperor was unkind to him, he should not blame him for being unjust!
"These court officials have been advising Your Majesty to adopt a child as soon as possible, and Your Majesty's attitude has softened somewhat."
"The Prime Minister is also strongly recommending you..."
"My Lord, I congratulate you first. His Majesty's birthday will be in a month. His Majesty will certainly adopt you then, and you will be the Crown Prince of Qin!"
Qin Yi took a deep breath, and his gloomy mood of the past few days finally brightened up a lot. He was previously under house arrest in the prince's mansion by the emperor and was worried about it, but who made him the only talent left in the royal family?
If the emperor doesn't succeed him, will he give the throne to someone outside his family?
At this moment, Qin Yi wished that the emperor would die after his birthday, so that he could sit on the throne legitimately. Then the world would be his, not to mention Concubine Zhao.
Shen Shuyi found Qin Yi's fantasy ridiculous when he learned from the system. The more he expected it now, the more disappointed and painful he would be then!
…
On the emperor's birthday, Qin Hao hosted a banquet for his ministers in the Hall of Supreme Harmony and accepted congratulations from all officials.
Qin Hao personally supported the Empress Dowager and attended the ceremony. Everyone bowed and waited for the Emperor to speak before sitting down.
Shen Shuyi was wearing a gorgeous palace dress and sitting below the emperor. Empress Dowager Li, who had claimed to be ill and had not left the Cining Palace for a long time, was also present. Empress Dowager Li was a little absent-minded, and her eyes looked at Qin Yi at the table from time to time.
The sound of stringed instruments rang out, and the emperor and his ministers drank together. After three rounds of wine, everyone's hearts did not relax, as they were all waiting for the emperor to issue an edict to adopt the Prince of Qin.
Unexpectedly, the emperor put down his wine glass and spoke to Concubine Zhao, who was sitting below him, "Concubine Zhao, come sit next to me."
Although it was against etiquette, no one dared to object. The Empress Dowager was still frightened by the incident with Nanny Sheng, and the Grand Empress Dowager did not want to stop it. She actually hoped that the Emperor would be closer to his concubines so as to have more offspring.
Chen Shuyi walked lightly to sit next to Qin Hao. Seeing that she didn't drink a drop of alcohol today, Qin Hao brought her a bowl of mutton soup.
"Mutton soup is the most nourishing in winter. Please have a bowl, my dear."
Shen Shuyi smiled and picked up the bowl, "Thank you, Your Majesty~"
But as soon as she took a sip, her face changed, she covered her mouth, turned her head and started vomiting.
Qin Hao quickly put his arm around her shoulders, looking nervous, "Shuyi, what's wrong?"
"Quickly call the imperial physician!"
With such a sudden change occurring during the banquet, everyone's eyes were on Concubine Zhao, who was holding her chest and retching.
The imperial physician came running over with sweat on his forehead to take the patient's pulse, and the more he looked, the more something seemed wrong.
"How is Concubine Zhao?"
The imperial physician was sweating, he seemed to have diagnosed that Concubine Zhao was pregnant...
He was afraid that he had rushed too fast and made a wrong diagnosis, so he took the pulse again. Other doctors who had rushed over were waiting for him.
Seeing that the imperial physician had not yet made a decision, Qin Hao was afraid that Shen Shuyi was poisoned again, and said coldly: “Let someone else take a look!”
Shen Shuyi covered his heart and looked back at the emperor, "Your Majesty..."
"Don't be afraid." Qin Hao comforted her softly, but his heart was hanging in the air.
The imperial physician quickly withdrew as if he had been pardoned. At the head of the Imperial Hospital, the old imperial physician felt the patient's pulse, stroked his goatee and said thoughtfully:
"This is a pregnancy pulse. Congratulations, Your Majesty. The Imperial Concubine is pregnant."
Qin Hao stood up suddenly, and it took him a while to react, "You mean, my beloved concubine is pregnant?"
Seeing the emperor so excited, the old doctor nodded repeatedly, "That's right."
"But she just vomited. Is she in serious condition?" Qin Hao looked nervous.
"Your Majesty, don't worry. This is just a symptom of morning sickness. Has the Imperial Concubine been sleepy these days?"
"Indeed, she sleeps more than usual." Qin Hao nodded, thinking back to the past few days, his hair was indeed sleepy and plump... No wonder...
The old doctor pondered, "The imperial concubine is nearly two months pregnant with the dragon heir."
Qin Hao's eyes were full of surprise, he sat down and hugged Shen Shuyi in his arms, holding her hand and speaking in a hoarse voice, "Shuyi, we have a child!"
Shen Shuyi was a little amused when she saw him so excited.
"Yes, your majesty is going to be a father."
Qin Hao didn't dare to hug her too tightly. He just held her hand gently and sighed, "That's great."
"This is the best birthday gift I have ever received."
Shen Shuyi shook his hand back, a little shyly, "Your Majesty, we are still at the banquet..."
Qin Hao looked at everyone and laughed out loud, "Noble Consort Zhao has made great contributions in carrying the royal heir, and has been promoted to Imperial Noble Consort!"
"All the courtiers and palace ladies present here have been rewarded. Please congratulate me and I will not leave until I am drunk."
But he couldn't wait to pick up Shen Shuyi and return to Weiyang Palace.
