As for Lady Guarjia, she couldn't handle her before, and she still can't now. Besides, the master is protecting her.
Like the Fujin, Lady Li also wanted to take action but was helpless.
Thus, Jiaming lived a very leisurely life.
In the fifty-fourth year of the Kangxi Emperor's reign, good news came from the eldest prince, Honghui: his concubine was pregnant.
The princess was overjoyed!
The eldest prince's pale face was also tinged with joy, and he looked like he was in better health.
Fourth Master was also happy, after all, this was his first grandchild.
A month later, in Peach Garden, in the morning, when Jiaming was watering the flowers and plants, her supernatural abilities began to stir.
She stopped watering the plants, carefully examined herself, and discovered that some of the supernatural power had disappeared from her abdomen.
Suddenly, she remembered that it had been the same when she was pregnant with Hongxuan and Hongjing.
However, by then, her belly was already showing.
Seeing that Red Peach and Green Willow were following her, she decided to continue watering the flowers and plants to avoid revealing that she knew medicine.
After watering the plants, she went back and made an excuse to send Hongtao and Lvliu away. After taking her pulse, she confirmed that she was nearly a month pregnant.
During this time, even though the Fourth Prince didn't say anything, she sensed that he was hoping for good news about her pregnancy.
Considering how well he has treated her lately, she decided to have Hongtao invite the doctor from the manor to come and examine her, so that the master would know she was pregnant as soon as possible.
After the doctor took her pulse, he diagnosed her with pregnancy, which had been going on for almost a month.
When Fourth Master found out, he was overjoyed!
Perhaps he was used to relaxing at Jiaming's place, and in his excitement, he let it slip.
"As expected, Master has no hidden illness; it's just that the time isn't right yet."
Jiaming looked at Fourth Master and blinked.
Fourth Master's expression stiffened, he coughed dryly, and said to himself, "Why are you looking at me? I didn't say anything."
"My lord, I heard everything."
Fourth Master's face darkened. "So what if I heard it? It's all a misunderstanding."
Jiaming blinked and playfully asked, "Then who misunderstood that you have a hidden illness, Your Highness? Was it Consort De or the Emperor?"
Fourth Master glared at Jiaming with a dark face: "Guarjia clan, I've already said it was a misunderstanding!"
Jiaming nodded in agreement, but continued, "I know, but I'd like to know who has misunderstood you, Master?"
Then, before the Fourth Prince could speak, she said, "I guess it was the Emperor. After all, Your Highness, you were misunderstood to have a hidden illness, which must have been diagnosed by the imperial physician. Only the Emperor could suppress such a sensational matter and prevent it from being spread."
"Guarjia clan! When will you stop?"
Jiaming chuckled, "Oh no, my lord, tell me, is the baby in my belly a boy or a girl?"
Jiaming changed the subject very quickly, and although it wasn't very clever, it was very effective.
Enraged, the Fourth Master only glared at Jiaming before letting her go.
Then, his eyes softened, and he said, "Whether it's a man or a woman, I like them both."
