"Greetings to Your Majesty," said Xiao Dingzi as he entered and bowed.
"Xiao Dingzi, go to Jiuzhou Qingyan and report to the Emperor that I am pregnant with his child." She instructed Xiao Dingzi.
"Yes, Your Majesty." Little Dingzi was also very excited when he heard the news. After a moment of stunned silence, he quickly bowed and replied.
After Xiao Dingzi left, Ituma Shushu said to Dongmei, "Dongmei, now set out the meal."
"Yes, Your Majesty," Dongmei quickly bowed and replied.
The wind was gentle and the moon was bright when Eunuch Fu hurriedly ran in and said, "Your Majesty, Xia Ju, the maidservant of Consort Shu, just came to report that Consort Shu is about two months pregnant with the Emperor's child."
The Empress was surprised to hear this and exclaimed, "She is indeed a blessed woman, conceiving the imperial child again so quickly."
"Your Majesty, this servant has already investigated and confirmed that Consort Shu has no other problems."
Consort Shu's personality and habits remained unchanged. She later developed a fondness for flowers, plants, and trees after her second serious illness.
"But Consort Shu used to enjoy strolling around the Spring Breeze and Autumn Rain Pavilion and admiring the surrounding scenery." Granny Chun, disregarding her shock, spoke solemnly.
The Empress frowned, but people of that time believed in fate, and the royal family was no exception. The Empress relaxed her brow and said, "I see, he is indeed a person with great fortune."
"Granny Chun, please deliver the reward to Consort Shu later," the Empress instructed Granny Chun.
“Yes, Your Majesty,” Chun Mama replied.

Su Peisheng hurriedly replied, "Your Majesty, just now, Xiao Dingzi from Consort Shu's side came to report that when Consort Shu asked Imperial Physician Zhou to take her pulse, she discovered that she was about two months pregnant with the imperial fetus. Xiao Dingzi is still waiting outside."
"Su Peisheng, prepare the carriage for Qingya Yunxuan now," Yongzheng ordered, standing up abruptly.
"Yes, Your Majesty," Su Peisheng replied hastily.
Emperor Yongzheng walked slowly forward, followed silently by a group of eunuchs and palace maids. A faint fragrance filled the air, carried by a gentle breeze that brushed against the emperor's robes, bringing a touch of coolness.
After passing through the winding corridors, Yongzheng arrived at the first palace. The palace maids and eunuchs, who had already known of Yongzheng's arrival, all bowed their heads and paid their respects, not daring to be negligent in the slightest.
Yongzheng nodded slightly, signaling them to rise, and then stepped into the palace.
