Chapter 495: Surprise
Concubine Li returned to Linhua Palace and called the imperial physician. She thought she had eaten something bad, so she didn't take it seriously.
Even when the imperial physician came, she had recovered her spirits.
However, when the imperial physician felt the patient's pulse, he found out good news.
Concubine Li is pregnant again! The eleventh prince is only a little over a year old, and she is pregnant again?
Her menstruation hasn't even recovered yet!
"Really?" Concubine Li herself didn't dare to believe it.
"It is absolutely true, Madam Concubine Li. It has been more than two months." The imperial physician also thought that this baby was too easy to give birth to.
In terms of sleeping with the emperor, Concubine Li doesn't have many men nowadays, but isn't it too easy for her to get pregnant? "How is the baby?" Concubine Li asked with a smile.
"Everything is fine. It's early in the month, so it's understandable that Your Majesty doesn't feel anything. It's normal to feel a little nauseous occasionally." said the imperial physician.
"Okay, reward!" Concubine Li smiled and touched her belly: "Since this is the case, there is no need to hide it. Let's send someone to tell the emperor and the queen."
There's no point in hiding it this morning.
Besides, this is her third child, there is no need to hide it.
Soon, the news spread and everyone was shocked. Something happened again?
In Yufu Palace, Shen Chuliu laughed: "This is really amazing."
"Yes, Concubine Li is also blessed." Jimei said with a smile.
"Just give gifts according to the rules. Be careful not to let others take advantage of you." Shen Chuliu said.
"Oh, don't worry, Master." Chi Su said with a smile, "I will go there myself."
"Before, there was Concubine Xue who was pregnant and noble, but now she has been surpassed by Concubine Li." Even though Concubine Li is not favored, her status is still there.
"Yeah, but the most unhappy ones are the newcomers. They haven't even made any progress yet, but they've already suffered setbacks one after another."
"The most miserable ones are those three, right?" Aunt Zhang said, "The newcomers are still young and have plenty of opportunities. Those three are not new anymore, but they haven't made it yet."
Shen Chuliu laughed. Isn't it? Those three were really embarrassed.
But sometimes, there is no most embarrassing, only more embarrassing.
Concubine Li was overjoyed and received a lot of rewards.
At nightfall, Li Zhaoyi in Cuiyunxuan actually called the imperial physician, and within half an hour, he diagnosed that she was pregnant...
Li Zhaoyi had been in the palace for two months and had been pregnant for two months as well.
It's really a bolt from the blue.
That is to say, she had it when she first started to serve him in bed.
This really makes people say that there is nothing good to say.
But it is true, two months of pregnancy, generally there is nothing wrong. The imperial physician is sure of it.
Moreover, on the fourth day of the New Year, he specially asked an experienced imperial physician to check again, which was absolutely true.
The next morning, he got up early and paid his respects to Fengzao Palace, which turned out to be a show-off.
Concubine Li was naturally happy, but at least she had two princes, so there was no need for her to show off.
But Li Zhaoyi had been depressed for some time before, but now that she was suddenly pregnant, she felt more confident again.
He actually dared to mock Shen Chuliu.
"Empress Li is pregnant with her third child, but I know that Concubine Li is not as favored as Concubine Jing. How come Concubine Jing only has one prince?"
This statement is so stupid that I can't bear to look at it.
Is this to step on Concubine Jing? But Concubine Li also offended her. Isn't this a roundabout way of saying that Concubine Li is not as favored as Concubine Jing?
That's the truth, but it doesn't sound quite the same when you say it.
"I just can't give birth. Does Li Zhaoyi have any objection?" It would be strange if Shen Chuliu got angry.
"It's true that Concubine Jing has little luck with having children, but that's not a big deal. But there are so many younger sisters, and Concubine Jing shouldn't monopolize the emperor. The emperor has been resting at your place for a few days..." Li Zhaoyi said with a smile.
"Speaking of which, what is this Southwestern Liangcheng like? Is there a big river?" Shen Chuliu suddenly asked.
"Of course there is. What does your Majesty mean?" Li Zhaoyi was confused.
"Oh, does that river pass by the gate of your Jinchang Marquis Mansion?" Shen Chuliu asked again.
"Of course not." Li Zhaoyi was even more confused.
"If it's not the case, why do you care so much? And why do you care whether I sleep with you or not? Who are you? Li Zhaoyi? Open your eyes and look up. Do you see a seat? It's called the Phoenix Throne. It's where the mother of a country sits. As the queen, you and I are the mistress. What's the matter? Li Zhaoyi, do you want to try sitting on it?"
Shen Chuliu said coldly: "Why are you Li family members so bad at learning the rules? Your sister was like this in the past, and you are like this too."
"Pfft, after all, she is just a concubine's daughter, so don't ask for too much, sister. I heard that the wife of Marquis Jinchang is frail and has not been in charge of affairs for many years. I guess Li Zhaoyi was also raised by an aunt." Concubine Li smiled with her handkerchief covering her mouth.
"Oh, is that so? I'm asking for too much." Shen Chuliu also laughed: "It's so early in the morning, you can't make me angry."
"You are going too far, Concubine Li. Even if I am a concubine's daughter, I am still the daughter of the Marquis of Jinchang. Besides, I have been married to my stepmother..."
"Okay, why are you still not done? Are you here to show off your nobility?" Shen Chuliu looked at her indifferently: "How noble are you?"
How noble are you? This question is...
None of these people in front of her had a worse background than her.
Li Zhaoyi twisted her handkerchief and sat down in silence. She thought these women must be jealous because she was young, beautiful and favored.
Now I'm pregnant!
The queen finally arrived.
He questioned the three pregnant women one by one, and then asked the concubines whose children were still young, then waved his hand and left.
Of course, as usual, if you want to take care of your pregnancy, you don't need to pay your respects.
In this matter, she treated every pregnant concubine equally.
As long as you are pregnant, you don't have to give birth if you feel unwell. As for whether you can keep the baby, that depends on your own destiny.
On the way back, Shen Chuliu asked, "Yi Chongyuan has been ill for some time, right?"
"It's been half a month, and I think it's not going well." Lady Yao said.
"She has been in poor health for more than a year or two." Shen Chuliu knew that her health had been damaged since she gave birth to that child.
I have been strong and have been holding on all these years, but now I'm afraid I can't hold on anymore.
"Well, I don't mean to say that she has had a hard time these years. This illness is half mental and half caused by endurance." Lady Yao shook her head.
That year, she was pregnant and had a bad body. She was devastated when she lost the child. But her position was still above the nine concubines. She had to maintain her reputation. She was lacking in many things, and her health was getting worse year by year.
"Let's go back. It's really hot. Does it feel like it's going to rain?" Shen Chuliu said.
"Yeah, it's very hot and humid. I think it's going to rain in the afternoon." Lady Yao looked up at the sky.
The sun is not very strong today, but it is very hot. I guess there is a thunderstorm waiting.
The two returned to Yufu Palace. When they passed by Cuiyunxuan, Shen Chuliu didn't even look at it.
Ever since Li moved in, this place has nothing to do with her.
