Chapter 1097: Grand Finale: Return of an Old Friend (5)
Shen Miao thought for a moment before shaking her head. "Right now, my parents and eldest brother are also in a standoff with Fu Xiuyi. At this point, I'm their weak spot. If there's another child, it'll be even more restrictive. Besides, Xie Jingxing will eventually arrive in Mingqi and reconcile with my parents. If my parents know, then Xie Jingxing will know too."
Luo Tan thought about it for a while and felt that it made sense. She said, "Even though they don't know, I, as their aunt, do know." She whispered, "I don't know if it's a nephew or a niece, but just thinking of a little meatball makes me like it."
Luo Tan had seemed rather quiet these days. Her lively nature had surprised the people at Prince Rui's residence, but now she had finally regained her former energy.
"This is the biggest happy event in recent days." Uncle Tang said with a smile, "It's time to celebrate." Someone slapped his head and said, "I almost forgot. We should pay attention to some of the food. Madam is recovering now, so don't make any mistakes. And those corners of the stairs and doors should be wrapped with cloth."
He was so nervous.
Shen Miao laughed. In her previous life, when she was pregnant with Fu Ming and Wan Yu, she had never received such treatment. Even Concubine Dong Shu had only routinely asked if she was okay and sent her some supplements. If it weren't for the Shen family's concern, Shen Miao was afraid she would have been in a mess.
Now she was calm, but everyone in Prince Rui's mansion was extremely nervous.
She smiled and said, "No need to bother. Uncle Tang, you should pack up as well. I'm pregnant, and the Empress wants me to go to the palace. Leave some guards in this mansion, and leave some more people. Anyone important will follow me to the palace."
Uncle Tang was stunned for a moment, then he seemed to understand what Shen Miao meant, and said, “Okay, this old servant will make the arrangements right away.”
"Cousin, do I want to go too?" Luo Tan asked.
"Of course I'm going."
"But I... don't understand the palace etiquette. Is that not good?" Luo Tan asked.
Shen Miao said, “Why wouldn’t it be bad? If you show off your skills a few times, everyone will know that you are a skilled martial artist and will be wary of me. I will then be safer. The safety of me and my child depends entirely on your protection.”
"Little cousin, please stop teasing me." Luo Tan blushed. "But you're right. It's better for us to be together. I'll go to the palace with you." She stood up and said, "I'll go pack first."
After Luo Tan left, Shen Miao stood up.
She didn't expect to be pregnant at this time, but she felt that everything was destined.
Opening the window, the autumn moon is very bright and gradually begins to form a full moon. In a few days, it will be Mid-Autumn Festival.
The Mid-Autumn Festival was a time for family reunions, but she was separated from her family. Neither Xie Jingxing nor Chen Xin were around. This year was destined to be a difficult one, but… Shen Miao touched her belly. Because she had a child, because she had become a mother again, she seemed to be able to appreciate the fullness of the moon.
God would not be cruel to a person forever. At least at this moment, God was a good person. He gave Shen Miao a rebirth, a man she loved deeply, and a brand new life.
The past is past, this is a completely different moonlight.
She gently asked the baby in her belly: "Look, you and Daddy are looking at the same moon."
…
Shen Miao moved into the palace.
Empress Xian De treated her very well, giving her a side hall next to the Weiyang Palace. Shen Miao still used her own servants, so it was not inconvenient. Usually, Empress Xian De liked to talk with Shen Miao and make tea. Luo Tan also followed. Luo Tan had a lively personality, and Empress Xian De also liked her very much.
