Chapter 96 Is This Pregnancy?

The Queen withdrew her gaze and raised her hand to signal them to get up. She looked at the desk and found several books on it. "Is the Crown Prince reading this morning?"

Xiao Jinyan: "My dear mother, yes."

The queen walked over to the chair with graceful steps and sat down.

Shen Chuwei knew that the Queen liked Chang Liangdi the most, and she also hoped that Chang Liangdi would be the concubine to manage the affairs of the Eastern Palace, but Xiao Jinyan felt sorry for Chang Liangdi's health and dragged her into it.

Most importantly, Xiao Jinyan's actions made many people misunderstand that she was very favored.

In order to save her life, she stood silently behind Xiao Jinyan, lowered her brows and closed her eyes, trying to minimize her presence.

But even so, it was still noticed by the queen with her sharp eyes.

"Shen Liangdi."

Shen Chuwei took a step forward, lowered her brows and nodded: "Your Majesty, I am here."

The Queen was greatly upset by Concubine Yun in Yu Garden. It had been more than half a year since the Crown Prince had decided to take a concubine, but there was still no news. Not only Concubine Yun felt strange, she was also strange.

She raised her eyes and looked at Shen Liangdi, her gaze first fell on her belly. She had slept with her several times, so why was there no movement at all?

"Has Shen Liang Di felt any discomfort recently?" But he thought to himself: If so, let Doctor Yu take a look right away, maybe she is fine now.

Xiao Jinyan: “…”

Shen Chuwei was a little overwhelmed by the favor: "Your Majesty, I feel uncomfortable sometimes."

As long as the Crown Prince doesn't let her manage the affairs of the Eastern Palace, she will have no discomfort.

When the queen heard that she was occasionally feeling unwell, her eyes lit up and she thought, is she pregnant?

Xiao Jinyan glanced at Shen Chuwei's flat belly, took a step forward, and explained, "Mother, Shen Liangdi's arrow wound from saving me last time has not healed yet, so she occasionally feels uncomfortable."

The queen's hope, which had just been ignited, was chilled to the core by the prince's words. She had actually thought she was pregnant!

"On the way here just now, I met Concubine Yun. Yin'er is already over two years old and can call her Grandma Empress."

The queen thought she had hinted clearly enough, but then she heard the prince say, "If your mother likes, you can take Yin'er to live in Fengyi Palace for a few days."

The Queen is in charge of the six palaces, and Yin'er is her grandson, so there is absolutely no problem in bringing him to live with her for a few days.

But she refused.

It's not my own son, so it feels different.

If she really took Yin'er, wouldn't Yun Fei's nostrils be flared up to the sky?

You see, this is all the Empress is capable of.

If she wants to hold her grandson, she can only hold her grandson.

So what if he's a prince? Can the empress be given a grandson right away? Can she?

The Queen said coldly, "That's Prince Cheng's son. It would be inappropriate for me to take him to live with me."

She couldn't help but shout in her heart: She wanted to hold her own grandchildren, preferably a pair of boy and girl twins. She would also take her grandchildren around the six palaces every day to make them jealous!

"..." Xiao Jinyan: "What the Queen Mother said is true."

The prince didn't understand her hint and the queen was furious.

"Your Highness, you should hold on tight. You will be 20 next year and have no children. What's the point of saying that?"

Xiao Jin said: "I will follow your mother's instructions."

"You go ahead and do your work. I'm going back now."

The Queen stood up and left the East Palace, and there was still a huge crowd of people.

After leaving the Eastern Palace, the Queen suddenly stopped and looked back at the Eastern Palace. She felt as if she had forgotten something important, but she just couldn't remember what it was.

Qingying stepped forward and asked, "My Queen, what's wrong?"

The queen retracted her gaze and said, "Nothing, return to the palace."

When she returned to Fengyi Palace, the Queen remembered that her original purpose of going to the East Palace was to hint to the Prince to send her some appetizers.

As a result, because I met Yun Xianbai on the way, I forgot about this matter and only remembered about holding my grandson.

It was all because of Yun Xianba, who took Yin'er out to show off in such a cold weather, which made her forget about it.

Qingying saw that the Empress was depressed after returning from the East Palace. It was true that the Crown Prince had been taking a concubine for such a long time and there was no news of good news, so it was hard for the Empress to be so worried.

Shen Chuwei thought there would be some delicious food at Xiao Jinyan's place, but she came back with five books. Chunxi was holding the books, but she needed to read them.

Chunxi was so happy holding the book, "My lady, His Highness values ​​you more and more."

Shen Chuwei said indifferently: "What do you know? I am just a tool."

Chunxi asked with a puzzled look on his face: "My lady, what is a tool man?"

Shen Chuwei thought for a while and said, "It's like you need a shovel to cook, right?"

Chunxi nodded, "Of course, how can we cook without a shovel?"

Shen Chuwei: "By the way, I am the shovel in the prince's hand."

Chunxi suddenly realized, and then said in shock: "So His Highness thinks so highly of me!"

Shen Chuwei: "..." I have led this child astray~

Back at Xiyun Pavilion, Shen Chuwei leaned against Pingji and ate the sesame rice cake made by Chunxi, which was soft, glutinous and delicious.

Chunxi opened a book, took a look and asked, "My dear, which one do you want to read first?"

Shen Chuwei took a bite of the glutinous rice cake and said, "Let me see one."

"Okay." Chunxi happily handed the book in his hand to Shen Chuwei.

Shen Chuwei was eating glutinous rice cake while turning a page and looking down at the book. The densely packed words made her feel drowsy.

When Chunxi came in after finishing her work, she saw Shen Chuwei lying on the couch with her arms and legs spread out, her delicate little face covered by a book.

Even though she couldn't see it, she knew that her mistress was asleep.

She walked over, moved the books away, covered Shen Chuwei with a blanket, then went out and closed the door.

Tao Chenghui hadn't seen Shen Liangdi for some days, so he took some food to Xiyun Pavilion.

When passing by Xu Liangyuan's Yixiang Palace, I saw Xu Liangyuan coming out from inside, looking like she was going out to visit someone.

Tao Chenghui stepped forward and bowed, "Sister Xu, are you going out too?"

"It's boring to stay at home, let's go out for a walk." Xu Liangyuan touched her temples and glanced at the food box in Dingxiang's hand. "Are you planning to go to Xiyun Pavilion?"

Tao Chenghui smiled and said, "That's right. I haven't seen Shen Liangdi for a while. I'm going to go and see her."

"You have a good relationship with Shen Liangdi. However, I heard that the Empress intends to promote Chang Liangdi to be a concubine and temporarily take charge of the affairs of the Eastern Palace." Xu Liangyuan approached Tao Chenghui and whispered.

Almost everyone knows about any disturbance in the East Palace.

Tao Chenghui had plenty of money, and Xu Liangyuan knew it, so of course she knew it.

"Chang Liang Di is the niece of the Queen. I believe Chang Liang Di can help Your Highness relieve his worries and work."

"Sister Tao is still the one who knows how to talk." Xu Liangyuan gossiped again, "I don't know what His Highness is thinking. I used to think that Concubine Chang was the most favored, but now I think Concubine Shen is more favored."

Tao Chenghui raised his handkerchief and chuckled, "So where are you planning to go, Sister Xu?"

"I plan to go to Lanyue Palace to see Shen Liangyuan." Xu Liangyuan hadn't seen Shen Liangyuan for some time. Shen Liangdi was being pampered, so how could she relieve her boredom if she didn't make some sarcastic remarks?
