Half a month later.
In the early morning, Empress Dowager Hua Yang, who was over sixty years old, began to check the situation in the palace with bamboo slips in her hands as usual.
At this moment, Assistant Minister Li Si quickly ran into Huayang Palace.
"Empress Dowager!"
"Great news!"
Empress Dowager Hua Yang frowned slightly and looked at Li Si with dissatisfaction.
"What is it?"
Li Si's long robe was drenched in sweat as he panted heavily. However, he still bowed and cupped his hands with joy.
"Replying, replying to the Empress Dowager."
"A palace maid in the King's palace is pregnant!”
Empress Dowager Hua Yang's body trembled as she looked at Li Si in disbelief.
"What did you say?"
"The king is going to have a son?"
Li Si nodded vigorously and shouted excitedly,""This lowly subject congratulates the Empress Dowager!"
"You're going to be a great-grandmother!"
The word 'great-grandmother' made Empress Dowager Hua Yang's heart tremble, and her wrinkled face turned into a dried orange peel.
"Good!"
"Great!"
"Bengong is going to be a great-grandmother."
"This is the protection of our ancestors!"
"Men, quickly get up the palanquin…No, the palanquin is too slow.”
"Bengong wants to go and take a look!"
Empress Dowager Hua Yang quickly boarded the carriage and took out a handful of golden beans from the carriage and threw them to Li Si.
"This is a joyous matter, I will reward you!"
Li Si hurriedly caught the golden beans with both hands in fear and trepidation.
"Thank you, Empress Dowager!"
Li Si quickly put the golden bean into his pocket and followed Empress Dowager Huayang's carriage.
"The Empress Dowager has arrived!"
Following the eunuch's ear-piercing shout, the eunuchs and palace maids in the Qilin's Toe Palace bowed and cupped their hands.
"Welcome, Empress Dowager!"
Holding the eunuch's hand, Empress Dowager Hua Yang got off the carriage and waved her hand impatiently.
"Don't make these empty formalities. Where is the king?”
Li Si, who had been running all the way here, hurriedly said,""Empress Dowager, His Majesty is currently in the west wing.”
"The west wing?" Empress Dowager Hua Yang frowned.”
"Could it be that the pregnant palace maid is still living in the side room?”
"Nonsense!"
Empress Dowager Hua Yang didn't look like an old woman in her sixties at all. She quickly rushed into the west wing and saw three doctors surrounding a palace maid, taking turns to take her pulse.
Ying Zheng and Ying Qian were sitting on the soft couch.
Ying Zheng's face was slightly pale, while Ying Qian's face was full of ridicule.
Seeing Empress Dowager Hua Yang enter, the three imperial physicians hurriedly cupped their hands.
"Greetings, Empress Dowager!"
Ying Zheng and Ying Qian also bowed and cupped their hands respectfully,""Empress Dowager!"
Ignoring Ying Zheng and his brother, Empress Dowager Huayang looked at the leading imperial physician impatiently.
"Imperial Physician Xia, how is the situation?"
Imperial Physician Xia Wuhe cupped his hands and said with a smile,""This humble subject congratulates the Empress Dowager."
"It's a happy pulse."
"The three palace maids all have happy meridians!"
Empress Dowager Hua Yang stepped forward excitedly.
"Are you sure it's a happy pulse?"
"You should know that this is a big matter. You can't be careless at all.”
"Wait!"
"Three palace maids?"
Xia Wuqi waved his right hand." Reporting to the Empress Dowager, these two palace maids also have happy pulses."”
Empress Dowager Hua Yang followed Xia Wuqie's gesture and saw that there were two maids lying on the two small beds beside the side room.
Xia Wuqi smiled and bowed again.
"It is precisely because this lowly subject understands the importance of this matter that I specially sought out two colleagues to take the pulse together.”
"I am certain that it is a happy pulse.”
"Congratulations, Empress Dowager!"
Empress Dowager Hua Yang felt a huge surprise hit her head. She felt dizzy as if she was stepping on clouds.
"Happy Meridians!"
"Three happy meridians!"
"In that case, doesn't that mean that this Queen will soon have three great-grandchildren?”
"This Queen is going to have three great-grandchildren!”
Empress Dowager Hua Yang ran to a palace maid and sat down beside the bed.
The palace maid hurriedly wanted to get up but was held down by Empress Dowager Hua Yang.
"This servant, this servant is surnamed Gui, surnamed Qi, named Wen. Greetings, Empress Dowager.”
Being treated like this by the Empress Dowager, Qi Wen was extremely excited, and his voice was trembling.
Empress Dowager Hua Yang smiled warmly.”
"Even if they are surnamed Gui and Qi, their background is not bad.”
The two palace maids on the bed beside him also couldn't wait to speak.
"This servant is surnamed Jiang, surnamed Sun, named Shui. Greetings, Empress Dowager.”
"Servant Han Qin greets Empress Dowager."
In the deep palace, there were few people who could be like Empress Dowager Huayang, who had a lifetime of power even without children.
For the vast majority of the women in the palace, having children was an opportunity for them to change their fate!
Now that they were finally pregnant, their bright future was right in front of them.
Sun Shui and Han Qin couldn't wait for the whole world to know that they were pregnant. How could they let Qi Wen be favored by Empress Dowager Hua Yang?
Empress Dowager Hua Yang smiled from ear to ear and nodded repeatedly.
"It's all good!"
"Good children."
"Now that you're pregnant, you should rest well.”
As she spoke, Empress Dowager Hua Yang had already placed her hand on Qi Wen's abdomen.
"Why is there no movement?"
"The fetus should be less than half a month old, so there shouldn't be any movement," Xia Wuqie said with a smile.”
Empress Dowager Hua-Yang nodded, pretending to understand what she meant. She took turns to rub the bellies of the three palace maids, then turned to look at Ying Zheng.
"Bengong heard that the king was causing trouble in the palace and was quite angry.”
"I didn't expect the king to do such a great thing.”
"Your Majesty, have you changed their grades?”
Ying Zheng cupped his hands helplessly." I haven't even gotten married yet, and I haven't even crowned myself yet. But I've already made a palace maid pregnant. I've truly let down my ancestors."”
"I think we should just kill them!”
"In this way, no one will know about my ridiculous deeds during this period of time.”
