Not to mention Xie Xiaochen, even the empress dowager has given up her extravagant hope of having an imperial grandson.
So, when she heard the news that Zhu Xianyue was pregnant, she thought for a moment that she was still asleep.
She even brazenly said, "Even if a sow can climb a tree, Zhu Xianyue can't get pregnant. This must be an excuse she made to avoid me. No, no, call her over quickly. I want to eat what she made yesterday... It was so spicy... Oh no... It was a spicy hot pot!"
The Queen Mother was not a daughter of a wealthy family. She grew up in the countryside and was not particular about her words.
But in front of the late emperor, she was still very restrained.
The consequence of such restraint is... the late emperor is gone, and Xie Xiaochen is filial to her, so she becomes a little "lawless" and says whatever she wants.
However, this character makes everyone like him very much.
Later I found out that Zhu Xianyue was really pregnant.
The woman's belly was filled with her little grandchildren, three of them.
The Queen Mother was overjoyed and hurried to Changxin Palace to visit Zhu Xianyue.
I left in such a hurry that I didn’t even… I didn’t put on that haggard look.
With her rosy complexion and vigorous steps, how could she look like she was terminally ill?
With this physique, she is the best among the old ladies.
It wouldn't be a big deal if Zhu Xianyue and the people who served her saw it.
What matters is that Xie Xiaochen is also here.
So when the Empress Dowager came running over panting, holding up her skirt, followed by a group of palace maids and eunuchs, shouting "Empress Dowager, slow down, your servants can't keep up", Xie Xiaochen stood up.
"Ah yeah... cough cough cough cough cough cough..."
The Queen Mother quickly pretended to cough a few times before speaking.
Little did she know that her voice was also heard.
[Oh no! He won't smell the roasted lamb leg on me, will he? No way! No way! No way! He's the emperor, not a dog, and I'm definitely not a bitch.]
[Ah, what should I do, what should I do, what should I do… Save me, save me, save me… Is there a hole in the ground that I can crawl into…]
Little did she know that Xie Xiaochen had already known that she was not sick at all.
He knew that the Queen Mother was doing this for his own good.
In addition, if the Queen Mother had not "pretended to be sick", he would never have met the woman of his dreams.
He also has to thank the Queen Mother for being the "matchmaker".
"I haven't seen you for a long time. Your health has improved a lot. I am very happy."
Xie Xiaochen gave the empress dowager a way out.
The Queen Mother felt that this was what she deserved.
She accepted Xie Xiaochen's words without any guilt.
"Well, he's fine. I'll have to take care of the little grandson or princess myself in the future."
The Queen Mother planned to spend this love on her grandchildren.
Taking care of children is not an easy task.
Of course, if Zhu Xianyue wanted to protect her child, she would not force it.
The two of them visited Zhu Xianyue together.
Later, Zhu Xianyue gave birth to two princes and a princess.
She was rightfully crowned queen.
And those women who were selected as concubines were sent back home.
They are still virgins and have been to the palace before, so it is not difficult to arrange marriage.
Xie Xiaochen was extremely possessive of Zhu Xianyue and was even reluctant to share her with his children.
The three children were naturally left to the Queen Mother to raise.
The Empress Dowager has a good attitude and good health. She has been waiting for her grandson for many years and has done her best for them.
In this world, Zhu Xianyue, as expected, once again gained the "emperor's exclusive favor".
