Jiang Jingyue himself knew that his belly had suddenly grown large.
After all, it's time for her to get bigger, and she's carrying more than one child, so it's not strange that she's getting bigger now.
“Your Highness, a belly usually grows around this time. If you had looked a while ago, the baby inside hadn’t started developing yet, so you wouldn’t have noticed any changes.”
After hearing Jiang Jingyue's explanation, Zhan Beiting finally understood a little. He nodded to indicate that he understood.
"Yueyue, thank you, you've worked hard."
Zhan Beiting knew that having children was a tough job, so he would always try to fulfill Jiang Jingyue's requests immediately.
"Yueyue, are you ready now? Let's set off then. Mother is already waiting for us to enter the palace."
Zhan Beiting's guess was correct; the Empress was already waiting for them.
She got up early in the morning to start preparing, since Jiang Jingyue and the others hadn't been to the palace for a while.
The Empress was overjoyed to hear that they were finally willing to come and see her.
"Hurry up and clean that area, and this area too. Make sure everything is clean and quick. Don't wait until the Prince and Princess come in while you're still cleaning."
Since the Empress had said so, the people who were still cleaning immediately sped up their work.
She was afraid that if she was even a little slower, the Empress would punish her.
After the Queen had prepared everything, she began to wait.
However, after waiting for a while, no one came. This made the Empress a little suspicious.
Could it be that her sons are lying to her, and that they actually have no intention of entering the palace?
When the Empress thought of this, she felt somewhat disappointed.
Looking at the large table of food, she instantly lost her appetite.
I had even asked someone to find out what Jiang Jingyue liked to eat and had everything prepared, but it seems unnecessary now.
The Empress waited a while longer, until the food had gone cold. This time, she was truly disappointed; it seemed no one would come.
"Your Majesty, why don't you eat something first? The Regent and the others may have to wait a while before they can enter the palace."
Although this servant said so, the Empress still felt that Zhan Beiting and the others would not enter the palace, since Zhan Beiting was never late in the past.
Therefore, the Empress believed that Zhan Beiting would not enter the palace this time.
"Put everything away. I don't have much of an appetite right now."
I'd like to try to persuade them again, since it's not good for them not to eat.
Just then, the servant who had gone out to scout the situation suddenly ran back.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, the Regent and the others have arrived at the palace gate and will be inside soon."
The Empress had given up hope, but she was pleasantly surprised to hear such a pleasant surprise.
Upon hearing this, she jumped to her feet.
"Is this true?"
Although the servants said so, the Empress still couldn't quite believe it; she couldn't believe it was true.
"Your Majesty, this is absolutely true, and this servant would never dare to lie."
"Your Majesty, please prepare yourself. This servant will go and fetch the Regent and his entourage."
The Empress nodded in satisfaction upon hearing this.
"Okay, then hurry over there now! Don't keep them waiting too long. Have someone bring the food over and heat it up quickly."
If we redo it, there won't be enough time later, so we can only reheat it.
A large group of servants hurriedly carried the food and ran outside, trying to get back as quickly as possible.
The Queen waited for a while longer, and finally heard some noise outside. She couldn't wait to run outside.
As soon as they went out, they saw Zhan Beiting supporting Jiang Jingyue as they walked towards her palace.
The Empress immediately went to greet her.
"Ting'er, Xiangyue, you've arrived! I thought you weren't coming."
Jiang Jingyue immediately shook off Zhan Beiting's hand that was supporting her and turned to support the Empress.
Zhan Beiting looked at Jiang Jingyue like this and was at a loss for words.
The Empress was very pleased to see Jiang Jingyue like this, and pulled Jiang Jingyue along, intending to walk inside.
The Empress pulled Jiang Jingyue a little too quickly, so Jiang Jingyue lost her balance and almost fell.
Startled by Jiang Jingyue's appearance, Zhan Beiting immediately grabbed her and pulled her into his arms.
The Empress couldn't help but laugh when she saw Zhan Beiting's action.
“Ting’er, do you have to be so careful? Your mother will always be careful. The way you’re acting makes it seem like your mother is about to do something to your princess.”
Zhan Beiting knew, of course, that the Empress had no ulterior motives, but things were different now than usual, so it was better to be more careful.
"Mother, of course I know you won't do anything to Yueyue, but given Yueyue's current health condition, it's better to be more careful."
The Empress was puzzled by this statement, so she immediately looked at Zhan Beiting with a look of confusion in her eyes.
"Ting'er, what do you mean by that? What's wrong with Xiaoyue's health? Is there anything wrong with her? Should we call the imperial physician?"
