"Rabbit."
"Rabbit."
Upon arriving at the door of the room where the rabbits were kept, the Eighth Prince Hongxu and the Ninth Prince Hongxuan immediately let go of Ituma Shushu's hand and hurriedly ran inside to see the rabbits.
"Mother, the rabbit didn't fly away."
"Mother, the rabbit is still here."
Ituma Shushu smiled and said, "Yes, yes, Mother knows. The rabbits are all behaving themselves."
...
And so, the days passed by at a leisurely pace, and in the blink of an eye, more than two months had gone by.
That morning, Ituma Shushu had just returned from checking in and collecting her life points when she saw Xiao Linzi running into the main hall.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty."
Xiao Linzi, forgetting all about the formalities, said breathlessly, "Your Majesty, the Empress has launched her attack."
Upon hearing this, Ituma Shushu's expression relaxed slightly, and she felt a sense of relief.
After all, the fact that the Empress has only just started labor proves that her unborn child has been healthy and has not encountered any accidents.
This greatly increases the chances that the Empress will give birth to the princess safely.
For the past month, with the Empress's delivery date fast approaching, the entire palace has become unusually quiet.
Ituma Shushu had already begun arranging everything at Qingyun Yaxuan well in advance.
After all, it was the Empress who gave birth, so the concubines had to stay by her side in the clear and bright moonlight.
There's nothing else to worry about, but I'm afraid the Eighth Prince Hongxu and the Ninth Prince Hongxuan will come crying and looking for me, so I need to make arrangements in advance.
At this moment, Ituma Shushu gently instructed, "Xiaju, you guard the three princes well. Xiaolinzi, you and Xiao Anzi keep an eye on Qingyun Yaxuan."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Xia Ju and Xiao Linzi solemnly replied.
Ituma Shushu continued, "Dongmei, let's go to Fengqingyueming now."
Dongmei quickly reached out to support Ituma Shushu while replying, "Yes, Your Majesty."
Then, Ituma Shushu led Dongmei and several other servants to Fengqingyueming.
As soon as she arrived at the main gate of Fengqingyueming, she ran into Consort Yu and Consort Ning, who had come together.
Ituma Shushu immediately spoke first, saying, "No need for formalities, everyone please go in first."
Upon hearing this, Consort Yu and Consort Ning did not say much, but both nodded solemnly.
Then, the group hurriedly made their way into the clear, bright moonlight.
When they arrived at the main hall, they found that Emperor Yongzheng was already sitting in the main seat, and Consort Qi, Consort Xi, and Consort Yu had also arrived.
"Greetings to His Majesty."
Everyone quickly curtsied and bowed.
"Get up, everyone."
Emperor Yongzheng frowned and said in a deep voice.
"Thank you, Your Majesty," the crowd quickly bowed.
Afterwards, Ituma Shushu, Consort Yu, and Consort Ning all sat down quietly in turn.
Before long, the other concubines also arrived one after another.
However, the entire hall was very quiet. This time, no concubine dared to discuss it in hushed tones. Everyone was holding their breath and sitting properly.
After a while, Ituma Shushu carefully picked up the teacup, took a sip of tea, and thought to herself: I should browse "Dawn Mall" again now.
So she lowered her head and silently said, "Dawn Mall," then "Open."
Then she used her mind to create a small hand and pressed the light blue button in the upper left corner of the virtual transparent panel of "Dawn Mall".
The virtual transparent panel of "Dawn Mall" displayed:
Ituma Shushu
[Vitality Points:]
Lifespan: 7 years and 2 months
Lifespan can be exchanged for vitality points.
Ituma Shushu frowned as she looked at the life force points she had collected from signing in over the past two months. The life force points she could collect from signing in at Qingyun Yaxuan were getting less and less.
The contrast became even more pronounced after the Empress became pregnant with the Emperor's child and he stopped checking in near Qingyun Yaxuan to collect life points.
There was no way around it; I had charged too much for signing in before in order to give the Empress the "Return to the Past Spray" potion. Originally, Qingyun Yaxuan was enough to keep me alive for 7 years and 2 months.
However, you have to give up something to gain something. After the Empress became pregnant with the Emperor's child, Emperor Yongzheng's lifespan was extended by three years.
After the Empress gives birth to the princess today or tomorrow, Emperor Yongzheng may have his lifespan extended again.
Moreover, it was probably because I spent a lot of my life force that I was able to accumulate a certain number of points, which allowed "Dawn Mall" to be upgraded.
The major upgrade to "Dawn Mall" brings a new list of items.
The last time it secretly upgraded, it caused Ituma Shushu to receive a huge increase in life points every time she checked in during that period, so she quickly paid off her long-standing debts.
In short, the upgrade of "Dawn Mall" will definitely bring great benefits, and it may even increase the upper limit of lifespan that can be exchanged in the future!
But is there really no way for me to move to another palace?
Because Ituma Shushu had been keeping the matter of moving the palace in mind, she also discovered that Emperor Yongzheng had actually been renovating the Yuanmingyuan. Although it was not a large-scale renovation, the Yuanmingyuan became larger and more beautiful over time.
Now, Ituma Shushu already has a desired palace relocation target. Thinking of her relocation target, she couldn't help but sigh in her heart. It's already difficult to move palaces in the first place, let alone move to a place that is so much larger than Qingyun Yaxuan, which would be even more difficult!
Next, Ituma Shushu thought about some random things before finally pulling her thoughts away and stopping herself from thinking about them.
She used her mind to create a small hand and pressed the light pink button in the upper left corner of the virtual transparent panel of "Dawn Mall".
The virtual transparent panel of "Dawn Mall" displayed:
[Yongzheng]
Lifespan: 5 years and 5 months
Lifespan cannot be exchanged for vitality points.
Ituma Shushu took a deep breath and silently prayed that after the Empress gave birth to a daughter, Emperor Yongzheng's lifespan would be extended.
Then, she used her mind to create a small hand and pressed the light gold button in the upper left corner of the virtual transparent panel of "Dawn Mall" to refresh the item list.
Ahem, although Ituma Shushu doesn't plan to buy the items on the list right now, she can't help but check the list every time.
...
As time passed and night deepened, the entire hall remained brightly lit.
At that moment, the tranquility of the hall was suddenly broken by a painful groan.
Immediately afterwards, Ituma Shushu heard the sound of Emperor Yongzheng tapping the table with his hand.
A moment later, she casually glanced at Emperor Yongzheng.
Well, she saw Emperor Yongzheng with his brows furrowed.
Sighing inwardly, Ituma Shushu figured that, apart from Emperor Yongzheng, the person she was most worried about in the entire harem was the Empress.
