"I pay my respects to the Emperor."
"Please stand up, Concubine Xian."
The two were very polite.
It doesn't seem like a relationship between an emperor and his empress, but more like that of colleagues.
"What makes Concubine Xian so anxious?"
Shen Jingyi sat on the high seat.
But his eyes kept falling on Zhu Xianyue.
Tsk... I haven't seen her for so many days, how come she looks a little plumper?
Like a fairy, she is good at seducing people.
"To answer your Majesty, it's because of this palace maid... She not only harmed my sister, Concubine Shu, but also had an affair with someone else and got her pregnant..."
Shupin told Qin Shuqing about this matter because she wanted her sister to help her keep it secret.
Find a way to treat her.
She also didn't expect that Zhu Xianyue would sow discord between them with just a few words, causing Qin Shuqing to tell everything.
Shen Jingyi only grasped one key point——
Zhu Xianyue is pregnant!
That night, it was Zhu Xianyue’s first time.
Then the child in her belly is his.
After confirming with his eyes, he knew that all the cubs in that litter were his!
Shen Jingyi hurried down the stairs and helped Zhu Xianyue up personally.
He had never lost his composure like this before.
Qin Shuqing, who was standing aside, was still complaining about how hateful Zhu Xianyue was, and asked Shen Jingyi to punish her severely. He also indirectly emphasized that he was very observant and was the head of the housekeeping staff.
When I came to my senses and looked... eh? How did that criminal maid end up in Shen Jingyi's arms?
What, what’s going on?
She rubbed her eyes to make sure she wasn't dazzled and wasn't seeing things.
Shen Jingyi asked the eunuch to fetch Concubine Xian's cloak and put it over Zhu Xianyue.
"It's cold at night... don't... get cold."
Zhu Xianyue knew that Shen Jingyi's tenderness at this moment was for the child in her belly, not for her.
In Shen Jingyi's mind, Zhu Xianyue is the kind of shameless person who would rather serve her father-in-law in order to climb up.
So after that night, even though he was extremely interested in Zhu Xianyue's body, he ignored Zhu Xianyue and just let Eunuch Shen take care of her.
Zhu Xianyue lowered her head and said, "I am not cold. Being able to bear the emperor's child is a blessing that I have cultivated for many lifetimes. With the emperor by my side, my heart is warm."
Shen Jingyi: “…” The little vixen is quite good at talking.
Naturally, these words were heard by others as well.
"What?!!" Concubine Xian screamed like a groundhog.
"You, the child in your belly is the emperor's? Didn't you get pregnant because of an affair with guard Xiao Qingyun?!"
Qin Shuqing hates it!
All the dignity was shattered to the ground and could not be picked up again.
"Your Majesty..." Zhu Xianyue said nothing and snuggled into Shen Jingyi's arms without any reserve.
The virtuous concubine was so angry that her face turned bitter.
This... this... is outrageous!
Most of the concubines in Shen Jingyi's harem strictly abide by the rules, or are afraid of his majesty, and never act like this in front of others.
Thinking of the child in Zhu Xianyue's belly, Shen Jingyi did not push Zhu Xianyue away after all.
The little vixen is quite clingy.
This is the only time, and it won’t happen again.
However, the royal bloodline must not be confused.
Even if that night was Zhu Xianyue's virginity, who knows if she would do it with another man later... ?
But Shen Jingyi believed that his lively and energetic nature would surely make Zhu Xianyue lose interest in other men.
But this reason is hard to convince people.
Shen Jingyi first asked someone to bring both Shupin and Xiao Qingyun over.
Zhu Xianyue was placed on the beauty bed by Shen Jingyi and covered with a thin blanket.
She was in the Xianfei's bedroom, wearing the Xianfei's cloak, lying on the Xianfei's beauty couch, enjoying the care and support of the Xianfei's beloved man... Heh~
Where is the virtuous concubine?
The virtuous concubine was so angry that her nose was bleeding, and she was dealing with it in the inner hall.
