Nian Shilan saw that Shen Meizhuang was in good physical condition, so he couldn't say anything right now, so he could only stay for a while and then leave.
The emperor stayed for a while and then left, leaving only Zhen Huan to accompany Shen Meizhuang.
"Very good."
Zhen Huan took Shen Meizhuang's hand and said, "Your child has come at the right time. We must protect her well."
Shen Meizhuang is not as optimistic as Zhen Huan. Who doesn't want to protect their children, but it is too difficult for the children in this palace to be born safely.
"Of course I'm happy when the baby comes, but I'm not that happy."
Now that there are no outsiders, Shen Meizhuang stopped pretending and said worriedly: "But I really have no confidence. I really don't know if he can be born safely."
"It's nothing like that, don't worry."
Zhen Huan comforted Shen Meizhuang and said, "With Concubine Hua taking care of us, and the Emperor, we just have to be careful. Even the people around us, we have to be careful, and we can't be careless at all."
"I know."
Shen Meizhuang nodded worriedly.
Nian Shilan returned to the palace and asked Songzhi to pass Jiang Cheng over.
"Did you show Hui Bin's fetus?"
"Hui Niang, yes."
Jiang Cheng didn't understand what Nian Shilan meant: "Wei Chen was on duty in the morning, so I went to get Empress Hui's pulse."
"Are you sure it's Ximai?"
This is the only thing Nian Shilan is worried about.
"Back to your Majesty, Wei Chen has been practicing medicine for decades, so he still has some confidence in this."
Jiang Cheng assured, and now that Nian Shilan and Hui Concubine have a good relationship, he did not dare to lie: "Hui Concubine's pulse is stable and the fetus is healthy."
Nian Shilan listened to Jiang Cheng's words and felt relieved knowing that he did not dare to lie to her.
"In this case, I will entrust Hui Bin's fetus to you. You must take good care of Hui Bin's fetus."
"Don't worry, I will do my best."
After Jiang Cheng finished speaking, he left.
Nian Shilan thought that now that Shen Meizhuang was pregnant, the queen's eyes would be fixed on Shen Meizhuang.
Concubine Ji came over in the evening.
"Greetings to the noble concubine."
Nian Shilan looked puzzled at Ji Bin who came late at night.
"Concubine Ji came here late at night. I'm afraid there's something urgent."
Nian Shilan sent everyone away and said, "You might as well be the first to talk."
"I heard that Liu Guiren is also pregnant."
Concubine Ji whispered: "Kang Chang is talking about it, but I don't know whether it is true or not."
"Kang Changzai?"
Nian Shilan didn't understand. How could Kang Changzai tell Concubine Ji this?
Ji Bin smiled mysteriously: "Of course she couldn't tell me. I heard it when she told others."
"Ji concubine,"
Nian Shilan looked at this concubine Ji who was full of secrets. She didn't like the feeling of being kept in the dark, so she slowly said: "Why are you so nice to me? What do you want to ask for?" of?"
Ji Bin was stunned, she didn't expect Nian Shilan to ask the question so openly.
Nian Shilan looked at her and asked again: "What do you want me to do for you? Find out the cause of your mother's death? Or do you want your dowry back?"
After listening to Nian Shilan's words, Ji Bin knew that she knew everything about her family.
Concubine Ji gave a wry smile: "Your Majesty is aware of everything, so I dare not hide anything."
Nian Shilan didn't speak when he heard Ji Bin's words. He just looked at her, waiting for her next words.
"I really didn't mean it."
Ji Bin looked at Nian Shilan and knelt down carefully: "Originally, I really didn't want you to do anything for me. I originally wanted to die. However, a few days ago, I Someone from the ancestral family came in with news that there was something fishy about E Niang’s death, I cannot allow the person who harmed E Niang to trample on her dignity.”
"You get up first and just say what you have to say."
Nian Shilan nodded and helped her up.
Ji Bin stood up, let Nian Shilan help her sit down, and then continued: "My Ama has always been unhappy with me. If my concubine didn't want to enter the palace, he would not have sent me to the palace." It’s just that I didn’t expect that my concubine would like the family I originally promised. I have entered the palace, and I have nothing to say to her if she wants to marry her, but she should never, absolutely should not, and should not harm her. My mother-in-law."
"Then do you have any evidence that your mother was murdered?"
Nian Shilan saw that Concubine Ji was so sure, and she was definitely not just guessing.
Concubine Ji shook her head: "There is insufficient evidence. It's just that my mother-in-law has always been in good health. It's impossible for her to fall ill just because they swallowed my marriage certificate."
"What do you need me to help you with?"
Nian Shilan didn't expect that there was no evidence that Ji Bin was real.
"My queen only needs to let me leave the palace and go back to my parents' home for a short stay."
Concubine Ji wanted to go out of the palace to investigate in person, but she couldn't leave the palace without any reason, and she couldn't take the fifth elder brother away, and she wouldn't worry about leaving him in the palace.
Nian Shilan understood: "I will consider your matter. As for where Kang Chang is, you can just let people pay attention to it without exposing it."
Although Nian Shilan didn't know how Ji Bin knew, she didn't want to get to the bottom of it.
Ji Bin is a sensible person, and she was completely relieved after listening to Nian Shilan's words.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, I will take my leave."
After saying that, Concubine Ji left.
After Ji Bin left, Nian Shilan sat down with a sullen face.
Liu Guiren is pregnant?
How could she be pregnant?
The queen looks at her so closely, is it impossible for her to be pregnant?
Moreover, it was reported in Shenmeizhuang that she was pregnant, and Liu Guiren already had one here. Is it really such a coincidence?
No news of Liu Guiren's pregnancy came out, but Kang Changzai knew what was wrong here.
Within a few days, Concubine Ji fell ill.
When Nian Shilan heard about it, he asked someone to take the fifth elder brother to his palace, fearing that concubine Ji would infect the fifth elder brother.
"Your Majesty, you see that this concubine is ill now, so the fifth elder brother should stay with me for a while."
The emperor saw that the fifth elder brother was neither crying nor making trouble. Although he didn't want Nian Shilan to take him, he had no other choice.
The emperor is now taking a lot of precautions against the queen.
"What's going on over there, Concubine Ji?"
How could Nian Shilan not know the emperor's thoughts and his identity? It was impossible for the emperor to let him raise his elder brother.
"I don't know what's going on. However, after Ji Concubine became ill, I inquired carefully. It seems that Ji Concubine's mother passed away. She was pregnant at that time, and the family did not dare to tell her. Now. Now I know, I’m afraid she’s worried too much.”
As he spoke, Nian Shilan patted the fifth elder brother again and said, "The Queen Mother's health has improved a lot recently. Otherwise, why not send the fifth elder brother to the Queen Mother and let the Queen Mother treat her grandchild with pleasure, so that the Queen Mother will be happier."
