Mrs. Gu was very excited when she entered the palace. According to her status and position, she had been to the palace many times, but this time was different.
In the past, she entered the palace as a lady of honor, paid her respects to the empress dowager, and attended banquets hosted by His Majesty.
But this time, she entered the palace as the mother of a concubine in the harem, and she came to visit her daughter.
Mrs. Gu missed her daughter terribly after she had been away from her for a month.
Following the guidance of the eunuchs and palace maids, they arrived at Yunqi Palace. As soon as Mrs. Gu saw her daughter, she couldn't help but want to rush over and hug her.
But reason told her that her daughter was now a noble concubine, and she should bow when she saw her daughter.
"Your Majesty the Imperial Concubine, your humble servant greets you..." Just as Madam Gu was about to bow, Wushuang came over and held her back.
"Mother, there's no need to be so polite. You're my biological mother, the one who gave birth to me and raised me. How can you possibly bow to a daughter? Wouldn't that shorten her lifespan?" Wushuang smiled and pulled Madam Gu aside to sit down, asking with concern, "Mother, why have you lost so much weight? Is it because Father hasn't taken good care of you?"
"Dad, you won't take good care of mom when your daughter is not around?" Wushuang said coquettishly, pulling Mrs. Gu.
Madam Gu shook her head and said, "No, it's just that I haven't had an appetite these past few days, so I haven't eaten much."
She couldn't possibly tell her daughter that she and her husband were angry and on a hunger strike because of her daughter's entry into the palace, right?
Mrs. Gu looked at her daughter. Seeing her rosy face and more charming appearance, she knew that she was living a good life.
Seeing that her daughter was doing well, Mrs. Gu also breathed a sigh of relief.
"Are you living well in the palace? Is His Majesty...good to you?" Madam Gu asked with concern.
Wushuang smiled shyly and said, "Your Majesty is very good to my daughter."
"Her Majesty A'niang is really good to my daughter. She has been doting on her during this period and has not visited other people in the harem." Wushuang said with a smile.
In fact, it was because Dongfang Che became her man, so she was possessive and used some means to prevent him from going to other women.
Although Wushuang is just a pomegranate spirit, not a fox spirit or a more domineering demon, she is also a demon.
She is also very possessive.
How could her man have other women after having her?
Before her, Dongfang Che had other women, and she had nothing to say, after all, she hadn't come yet.
But now Dongfang Che is her man, so he can't look for another woman, and she feels disgusted.
Her mission is to give birth to a child for Dongfang Che. She is very satisfied with her current status and is also very satisfied with Dongfang Che, so she has no plans to change men.
In this case, Dongfang Che must of course remain chaste for her.
She didn't have much sympathy for the women in the harem.
It was her ability to keep Dongfang Che by her side, so why should she sympathize with others?
Madam Gu frowned slightly after hearing her daughter's words. She took her hand and said, "Then you must be careful. If His Majesty favors you alone, what will happen if you attract their attention and they take action against you?"
Even though none of the women in Dongfang Che's harem had ever given birth to a child, it didn't mean that they were peaceful and lived in harmony.
Although Prime Minister Gu only has one woman now, Mrs. Gu, he also had a concubine when he was young.
At that time, she had just married Prime Minister Gu and had suffered a lot at the hands of those concubines.
The concubine had been with Prime Minister Gu before her, and knew her husband better than she did. She was given to him by the elders in the family, so Mrs. Gu suffered a lot in the beginning.
Fortunately, because of her appearance, character, means and abilities, Gu Qianlei likes her very much, so he protects her.
Otherwise, she, the wife of the first wife whose family background is not prominent, might be deposed, and then Prime Minister Gu would marry another wife with a similar family background.
As someone who had experienced this, Mrs. Gu told her daughter to be careful of the other concubines in the harem.
"Especially now that you are pregnant with His Majesty's child, you are the most conspicuous target in the palace." Madam Gu said worriedly.
"They want to pull you down or harm your children so you don't move up to the next level."
Mrs. Gu became even more worried when she thought of the promise His Majesty had made to her daughter.
The position of queen, which woman in the harem would not be tempted?
Those women will definitely make things difficult for their precious daughter. Now that her daughter is pregnant, the harem will use more tricks on her.
Wushuang patted Madam Gu's hand and comforted her, "Don't worry, mother. His Majesty and the Queen Mother are protecting my daughter. I'm fine."
She was pregnant with Dongfang Che's first child, and Dongfang Che himself and his mother, Empress Dowager Yu, valued her very much. How could they allow a woman in the harem to attack her?
If she gets infected and loses the child, both mother and child will definitely go crazy.
They absolutely would not allow anyone to touch her belly.
Madam Gu sighed, "Even with His Majesty and the Queen Mother protecting you, you still have to be careful and vigilant, understand?"
"Especially since you've only been pregnant for a month and you've already told everyone, and the fetus is still unstable..."
The news should have been revealed after three months of pregnancy, but it was discovered when the daughter was only one month old.
Now not only the palace knows about it, but even the capital knows about it.
In the near future, the entire Dasheng will know that the emperor finally has a successor.
Will those royal family members who have been eyeing the position of the emperor's heir be willing to accept this?
Will the women in the harem be willing?
Would those vassal kings, as well as foreign races and neighboring countries, be willing to see Dongfang Che have a successor?
Her daughter is under really a lot of pressure.
Wushuang looked at her mother with a smile and said, "Don't worry, mother. I know what's going on."
Although she has only been practicing for two hundred years, she is a demon after all. She doesn't know where her inherited memories came from, but she does have quite a few tricks.
She had confirmed with the fertility system that this world had no monsters or gods, and was a very ordinary world.
So it is impossible for mortals to hurt her.
Even though this body is not her real body, nor is it the incarnation of her real body, her soul is very strong.
She's not afraid of the intrigues.
"By the way, you just got pregnant. Are you feeling uncomfortable anywhere? Are you having morning sickness?" asked Mrs. Gu.
Wushuang shook his head.
In fact, she looked very pregnant. She was just pretending to feel nauseous when she was having dinner with Dongfang Che.
She knew she was pregnant and wanted to take this opportunity to reveal it.
As for what others said about waiting until three months into the pregnancy to let others know, she really didn't care.
Even though she was only a month pregnant, she was able to protect her child and herself.
Mrs. Gu looked at her daughter's appearance and knew that what she said was true. She was relieved but also worried that she would suffer from morning sickness in three or four months, so she gave her all the prescriptions she had compiled.
"Please keep it well. It's best if you don't need it. It will be convenient for you if you need it." Mrs. Gu stuffed the prescription into her daughter's hand and said.
