Although the person who came was the Empress Dowager, he still had to stop her.
The Empress Dowager immediately stopped Jiugongting.
"Your Majesty, you haven't told me yet how the Empress is. What happened? Why did you suddenly summon the imperial physician?"
Seeing the Empress Dowager's anxious expression, Jiu Gongting stepped aside to let her in.
"Mother, the imperial physician said that Yue Bao is carrying three children. I don't know what to do."
When the Empress Dowager heard this news, she almost lost her balance. She felt so distressed about having a child, and it must have been so difficult for her to give birth.
But now, hearing that Jiang Jingyue is pregnant with three children, she felt somewhat dazed.
"This... Your Majesty, is what you're saying true? The Empress is suddenly pregnant with triplets. What... what did the imperial physician say?"
The Empress Dowager was also very anxious at this time. She immediately went inside to see how Jiang Jingyue was doing.
As soon as the Empress Dowager entered, she saw Jiang Jingyue's prominent belly and could hardly believe it.
She felt that she had just been chanting scriptures more diligently during this period, but she remembered that it had only been a few days since she last visited Jiang Jingyue!
How did Jiang Jingyue's belly suddenly get so big?
The Empress Dowager was truly incredulous.
Seeing the Empress Dowager's incredulous expression, Jiang Jingyue couldn't help but smile and look at her.
"Mother, come and feel my belly. The imperial physician said that I am carrying three children. Mother, please come and take a look."
The Empress Dowager was very excited, but her heart was filled with worry.
This was the first time she had encountered such a situation, so when the Empress Dowager heard Jiang Jingyue calling her, she walked towards her in a daze.
When the Empress Dowager came to Jiang Jingyue's side, she didn't dare to reach out to Jiang Jingyue's stomach.
The main problem was that her belly was really big, and she was afraid she might accidentally hurt it.
Jiang Jingyue couldn't help but burst out laughing when she saw the Empress's current state.
"Mother, you don't need to be so careful. I'm thick-skinned. Besides, the imperial physician just said that the baby in my belly is doing very well and there are no problems. So, Mother, you can touch it if you want. Don't worry about anything."
In the end, the Empress Dowager reached out her hand to Jiang Jingyue's belly.
She touched it carefully, then quickly stretched it out, mainly because she was afraid of actually touching something wrong.
"Xiaoyue, are you feeling unwell? If so, be sure to tell your mother immediately. Although I don't know if I can help you, I will work with you to find a solution."
Seeing the Empress Dowager's worried expression, Jiang Jingyue shook her head.
"Mother, you don't need to worry. I'm fine now, and the baby in my belly is doing well. You can just wait for them to come out."
However, it might be troublesome for Mother then; with so many children, she'll definitely need to help take care of them.
When the Empress Dowager heard that Jiang Jingyue was still willing to let her take care of the child, she was extremely excited.
She thought that Jiang Jingyue would never agree to this no matter what.
But unexpectedly, the first person to bring up this matter was Jiang Jingyue.
"Xiaoyue, just focus on taking good care of yourself. Your mother will definitely help you take care of the baby after it's born, so don't worry about that!"
After speaking with Jiang Jingyue, the Empress Dowager turned to look at the Nine Palaces and said to him with some dissatisfaction.
"Your Majesty, you said that when the child was three months old, you would announce this matter. Now the child is five months old, and you have not done anything."
"Shouldn't we make arrangements for this and give the children a proper status?"
Upon hearing the Empress Dowager's words, Jiu Gongting suddenly remembered. No wonder he had always felt like he had forgotten something. Now, thanks to the Empress Dowager's reminder, he finally understood that he had forgotten something so important.
Jiugongting looked at Jiang Jingyue somewhat embarrassedly, "I'm sorry, Yuebao, I've been too excited lately, so I accidentally forgot such an important matter. I will issue the decree immediately."
Jiang Jingyue didn't really care about this matter. If she did, she would have told Jiugongting about it long ago.
So when she heard Jiugongting say that, Jiang Jingyue immediately shook her head.
"Your Majesty, it's nothing. I don't care about this matter, so Your Majesty doesn't need to worry about it either. It can be done anytime."
Although Jiang Jingyue said she didn't care, Jiugongting still didn't want her and the baby in her belly to suffer.
So he immediately announced this matter to the world.
When Consort Rou heard the news, she immediately went to Consort De's palace.
"Your Highness, what should we do? That vile woman is really pregnant. What should we do next? We did so many things last time, but we still couldn't confirm whether she was pregnant or not. But now that His Majesty has announced it to the world, it must be true."
Consort De was also very anxious at this time. She knew that she absolutely could not let Jiang Jingyue give birth to the child. If Jiang Jingyue really gave birth to the child, then they would definitely be finished.
The Emperor already favors her alone. If she were to give birth to another prince, all the other concubines would surely lose their status in the harem.
The thought of this made Consort De feel terrible.
Her mind was filled with wicked thoughts. What she hoped for most right now was that Jiang Jingyue's baby wouldn't be born, and that would make everyone happy.
However, she still needs to do something; she needs to think of a way to get rid of the baby in Jiang Jingyue's belly.
However, while she can think about this matter, she certainly cannot do it herself.
Consort De glanced at the person in front of her and couldn't help but laugh.
Isn't there a perfect candidate right in front of us?
Since Consort Rou was so angry, Consort De felt that no matter what Consort Rou was asked to do now, she would definitely agree.
The way Consort De looked at Consort Rou in front of her was very malicious.
"Consort Rou, do you now know what the most important thing is?"
For some reason, Consort Rou had a bad feeling when she saw Consort De like this.
But in the end, she shook her head, thinking that she must be overthinking things.
Consort De is not that kind of person. Since the two of them have decided to cooperate, they should be more open and honest with each other from now on. Consort De certainly wouldn't do anything she doesn't know.
