Chapter 1160 He is finally going to be a father!
As the news that the emperor was going to enthrone a queen spread, there was an immediate storm inside and outside the palace.
From royal families to peddlers, almost everyone was discussing this matter enthusiastically.
The emperor had been on the throne for more than three years. Logically, he should have had a queen and children long ago. However, no matter how others advised him, the emperor refused to appoint a queen, and he didn't even have a child.
Although people didn't say it openly, there were actually many speculations in their hearts. Some even suspected that the emperor was not very good in that aspect?
Now, when people heard that the emperor wanted to enthrone a queen, it was like an old tree blooming, and everyone was naturally extremely surprised.
Compared with the many concerns of court officials and clan relatives, the common people did not have so many considerations. They even thought that it was a good idea for the imperial concubine to be the queen. After all, the imperial concubine and the emperor had a very deep relationship. Especially those who often paid attention to the gossip about the imperial concubine and the emperor, they wholeheartedly agreed with the emperor's decision!
The CP they are supporting is about to come to fruition, and everyone is celebrating!
As the person involved, Xiao Xixi had no idea how many people outside were paying attention to her.
As soon as she returned to Yunxiu Palace, she was warmly welcomed by everyone.
Baoqin's eyes were red, she wanted to cry but didn't dare to, and she choked with sobs.
"My lady, you are finally back!"
Xiao Xixi said awkwardly: "I'm sorry, I knocked you out, I didn't want you to be implicated, so..."
Baoqin quickly wiped the corners of her eyes with her sleeve and tried hard to maintain her smile.
"I know. I don't blame you. I am just worried about you."
After she woke up, she learned that the imperial concubine had left the palace. All she had left was worry. She was worried that the imperial concubine didn't eat well or sleep well while away from home, that she couldn't take care of herself, and that she might encounter any danger.
She did not believe in Buddhism, but in order to ease her worries, she asked someone to bring a small Buddha statue from outside the palace.
She would burn incense and pray to the small Buddha statue every morning and evening, hoping that the imperial concubine was safe outside.
Xiao Xixi reached out and hugged her: "Don't worry, I'm fine."
After the two separated, Baoqin pressed her eyes with her sleeve again and said in a very embarrassed tone.
"I lost my temper, please forgive me, Your Majesty."
Xiao Xixi hurriedly said it was okay.
Then Zhezhi and Xiyu also came over, asking how the imperial concubine was doing outside.
Luo Qinghan sat quietly beside them, drinking tea and watching them chattering.
At this time, Qingsong walked to the door and bowed respectfully.
"Your Majesty, Madam Concubine, the imperial physician has arrived."
Xiao Xixi was very surprised: "Why is he here?"
Luo Qinghan put down the teacup and said calmly, "I asked him to come."
Xiao Xixi hurried over to his side, lifted up her skirt and sat down, holding his hand and asking with concern.
"Are you feeling unwell?"
Luo Qinghan lowered his eyes and looked at her, with unconcealable tenderness in his eyes.
"I'm fine. I'm not feeling unwell. I just want the imperial physician to take a look at you."
Xiao Xixi was even more confused: "What are you showing me? I'm not sick."
Luo Qinghan glanced at her belly meaningfully.
Xiao Xixi immediately covered her stomach, her eyes wide open, and asked in disbelief, "I just gained some weight, didn't I? Do you really need the imperial physician to prescribe a prescription for me to lose weight?!"
Luo Qinghan: “…”
Xiao Xixi felt deeply hurt.
She slapped her belly and shouted angrily.
"These are the meats I worked so hard to eat. I don't want to throw them away!"
Luo Qinghan grabbed her little paw and whispered, "Be gentle, don't be afraid of breaking it."
Xiao Xixi glared at him angrily: "You feel sorry for me now? If you feel sorry for me, don't even think about forcing me to lose weight!"
Luo Qinghan was helpless: "Didn't you say before that you were getting fat and wanted to lose weight?"
Xiao Xixi: "Did I say such a thing?"
Luo Qinghan was very sure: "Yes."
Xiao Xixi couldn't remember it for a while.
I don’t know what’s going on, but her memory has become very bad recently and she often forgets things.
She raised her chin and said, "Just assume it's true. But even if I really said it, so what? If I say I'm fat, it's called modesty. If you say I'm fat, it's called contempt. Do you dare to despise me?"
She put her hands on her hips, glared, and looked arrogant, ready to argue even if it was unreasonable.
When Baoqin heard this, she wanted to rush forward and cover the imperial concubine's mouth.
My queen, how can you speak to the emperor like this?
Living with the emperor is like living with a tiger. No matter how much the emperor dotes on you, you can't do this!
Everyone else present was also terrified, fearing that the emperor would get angry because of the imperial concubine's rudeness.
Instead of getting angry, Luo Qinghan gave a very honest answer.
"I don't dare."
He has no dignity as an emperor.
Baoqin was so shocked that her jaw almost dropped to the ground.
The others also stood there in a daze, as if they had seen a ghost.
Although the emperor has always been very fond of the imperial concubine and indulged her a lot on weekdays, he at least still maintained the basic image of an emperor. He would not be like he is now, abandoning his image and admitting defeat without any hesitation.
He is a role model for henpecked people!
Xiao Xixi lowered her chin in satisfaction: "That's pretty good."
Luo Qinghan reached out and hugged her, wrapped his arms around her waist, and placed his large, warm palms gently on her abdomen.
He bent his head and whispered in her ear.
"I summoned the imperial physician here, not to help you lose weight, but to check if there is anything wrong with your body."
Xiao Xixi muttered, "My body is fine!"
Luo Qinghan coaxed, "It won't hurt to take a look. The imperial physician has already arrived, so let him take a look at you."
Xiao Xixi thought so too. The imperial physician was already old, and it would not be easy for him to make such a special trip, so she nodded.
"Okay."
Luo Qinghan smiled and kissed her on the cheek: "So good."
The others present had already lowered their heads consciously, pretending that they hadn't seen anything.
Soon the chief physician came in with two young doctors.
The three of them greeted the emperor and the imperial concubine respectfully.
Luo Qinghan slightly released his hand on the imperial concubine's waist and asked the imperial physician to check the imperial concubine's pulse.
Generally, there must be a reason why the emperor would specifically ask the imperial physician to take the pulse of a concubine.
As for the reason, the imperial physician who had been in the palace for many years already had an idea.
He asked the doctor to open the medicine box and take out a pulse pillow.
"Please put your right hand up, Madam."
Xiao Xixi raised her hand, rolled up her sleeves, revealing her fair and slender wrist.
The wrist rests on the soft pulse pillow.
The imperial physician took out a silk handkerchief and covered her wrist with it, while asking.
"How are you feeling lately, madam? Have there been any physical changes?"
