Thinking of this, cold sweat broke out on the empress dowager's back.
She didn't dare to delay any longer and rushed to Ganning Palace with Ruixue.
When they arrived at Ganning Palace, the empress dowager saw a group of imperial doctors standing in the inner hall. The huge crowd of people made her even more nervous.
But why do these doctors have smiles on their faces?
Before the Queen Mother could think about it, Eunuch Wang knelt down and loudly announced the good news to the Queen Mother.
"Congratulations, Her Majesty the Queen Mother! The Chief of the Imperial Hospital and twenty-one imperial physicians have all diagnosed Concubine Ning as having a slippery pulse!"
"Your Majesty has a successor, Your Majesty the Queen Mother."
Not sick, but pregnant?
The great news nearly knocked the empress dowager unconscious, but Ruixue's quick eyes and hands saved her from falling to the ground.
After being stunned for a moment, the Queen Mother suddenly burst into tears.
The empress dowager was well aware of how bad the rumors in the previous dynasty's harem were. Others said that her son was good in every way, but he could not compare to her husband, the emperor who died early, in terms of offspring.
The empress dowager felt depressed by this, but she was unable to refute it.
Yes, even if her Jue'er was a good emperor, without a child who could inherit his throne, he would eventually be criticized.
But tonight, she will be able to hold her head high and feel proud, and her son will no longer be criticized for being unable to have children!
When Helian Jue saw the empress dowager crying, he quickly helped her to sit next to Qin Yanning.
It wasn't that he wanted to make his mother cry, but the last time the concubine faked her pregnancy had left a huge shadow on him. He was afraid that the director of the hospital had made a misdiagnosis and that his mother would be disappointed.
However, all the imperial doctors from top to bottom of the Imperial Medical Bureau came tonight, and Helian Jue could be sure that his Ning'er was really pregnant with his child.
Qin Yanning didn't expect that the crowd's reaction would be so big. Not to mention Helian Jue and the Queen Mother, even Eunuch Wang was so happy that he was at a loss as to what to do.
Songyue and Songxue also looked dazed and silly. Ever since they heard the news that she was pregnant, they couldn't stop smiling.
The Queen Mother sat down next to Qin Yanning, wiped her tears, and held Qin Yanning's hand tightly.
The Queen Mother had always liked Qin Yanning because she was beautiful and sweet-spoken. Now that Qin Yanning had a child, the Queen Mother loved her even more.
Thinking of Helian Jue clinging to Qin Yanning all day, the Queen Mother couldn't help but feel a little resentful towards her own son. This reckless child, who knew if he had hurt Jiaojiao Ning'er or not.
Thinking of this, the Queen Mother displayed her authority and spoke to the director of the Imperial Medical Bureau.
"Director Zhou, how is Lady Ning's pulse? She was frightened tonight, is she in good health?"
When the director of the courtyard heard the empress dowager calling his name, he stood up and bowed before replying.
"Your Highness, Lady Ning is young and in good health. Her pulse is normal, but..."
"Just what?" the Queen Mother asked.
"However, according to my observation of Lady Ning's pulse, it seems that she is pregnant with twins."
Dean Zhou Zheng made up his mind and spoke out his judgment. He had been practicing medicine with his family elders since he was five years old, and since he became an adult, he had never made a mistake in taking pulses.
If His Majesty had not been childless for many years, he would not have hesitated to tell his diagnosis.
As soon as Zhou Yuanzheng finished speaking, the other imperial doctors started discussing it, and several imperial doctors who were proficient in women's diseases also agreed.
They also thought that Lady Ning was pregnant with twins, but they didn't dare to say it out of caution.
Hearing Zhou Yuanzheng's words, the Queen Mother was so happy that she didn't know what to do. She looked at Qin Yanning kindly and asked, "Is there any woman in Ning'er's family who has given birth to twins?"
"Her Majesty, my two brothers are twins."
Although Qin Yanning knew that she was pregnant with twins, it was thanks to the Dragon and Phoenix Pills she bought from the fertility system.
But coincidentally, the original owner's two brothers were indeed twins.
Upon hearing this, the Queen Mother laughed so hard that her eyes were invisible. She took Qin Yanning's hand and praised him for being a good child and thanked God.
Even though Qin Yanning was thick-skinned, he couldn't help blushing when he heard the endless words of praise coming out of the empress dowager's mouth.
As the Queen Mother was praising, Zhou Yuanzheng, who was standing in the hall, couldn't help but yawn.
There's no way around it, it's really easy to get sleepy when you get old.
The Queen Mother and Helian Jue finally woke up from their dream. It was almost dawn, and Qin Yanning had been tossing and turning all night and had no time to close his eyes and rest.
Helian Jue quickly gave orders to reward all the imperial doctors and everyone who went to Tingyuxuan to put out the fire tonight, and then let the imperial doctors go back to rest.
The empress dowager loved Qin Yanning, but was afraid of disturbing her rest, so she reluctantly prepared to return to the palace.
Before leaving, the empress dowager did not forget to remind Helian Jue that Qin Yanning should be careful and thoughtful about everything while living in Ganning Palace, and that he should get the best food, clothing and other expenses.
Especially when it comes to food, it is best to arrange for the imperial physician and the nanny to test the poison together before giving it to Qin Yanning.
The Queen Mother came from the underworld and had always been rough in her approach. Even when she was pregnant with Helian Jue and her youngest daughter Helian You, she was not so cautious.
But when it came to Qin Yanning, the empress dowager couldn't help but be careful.
Of course, the Queen Mother did not forget to instruct Helian Jue not to do anything silly with Qin Yanning during this period. If Qin Yanning's fetus was disturbed, she would not forgive Helian Jue.
Helian Jue was at a loss for words when he heard the Queen Mother say this. He was already in his thirties, and he could scare all the ministers into silence just by sitting in the court. But in the eyes of his mother, he was a man who didn't know the seriousness of the matter!
Helian Jue felt quite helpless.
But it's not the empress dowager's fault for being so talkative. It's really because Helian Jue dotes on Qin Yanning too much. Since she entered the palace, Helian Jue has never visited the bedrooms of other concubines.
Helian Jue repeatedly assured the empress dowager that he would always put Qin Yanning and the child first in everything, and only then did the empress dowager contentedly let Helian Jue help her out.
Seeing that everyone had left, Qin Yanning shook his right hand, which was sore from the imperial doctors' pulse diagnosis, and stood up to lie down on the bed for a while.
The bed in Ganning Palace is much bigger than the one in Tingyuxuan, and she has never slept on it before.
Seeing this, Songyue and Songxue rushed up from the left and right to help Qin Yanning. They looked so cautious that Qin Yanning couldn't help laughing.
She gave Songyue and Songxue a slap on the head, "I'm pregnant, not incapable of taking care of myself!"
"When I can't walk anymore, I'll need your help."
Songxue finally realized and laughed that her beautiful wife was pregnant.
God knows how panicked she was after she woke up and knew everything. It was His Majesty's mercy that only fined them half a year's salary.
As expected, good people are rewarded in this world. Your Majesty is a good person, and Lady Ning is also a good person, so God gave them a child.
Still two!
As soon as Helian Jue returned to the main hall, he heard Songxue's laughter. He coughed lightly, and Songxue immediately stopped laughing and lowered his head.
"What are you grinning at? You guys should go down too. Don't disturb Ning'er's rest."
When Songyue and Songxue heard Helian Jue's order, they quickly retreated.
Seeing that there was no one else in the hall, Helian Jue laughed out loud.
Qin Yanning glanced at the hypocritical man with displeasure and said that Song Xue was smiling foolishly. She thought Helian Jue's smile was even more foolish than Song Xue's.
