If Xianxian had nothing to do with her, Lan Yi would not have the audacity to force her to stay.

"Is your Majesty worried about Concubine Wang's pregnancy?"

Perhaps noticing that Xianxian looked unhappy, Lan Yiren immediately perked up and prepared to show his loyalty.

Xianxian was dressed rather plainly today, with a pearl hairpin on her head and a white brocade dress on her body. If it weren't for the light blue patterns embroidered on it, she would have looked as if she was in mourning.

Mainly because she guessed that Min Ning had to appease Concubine Wang during this period and would not come to her place, Xianxian simply dressed very casually.

Her little face was not made up, but her eyebrows were dark without any makeup, and her lips were a light cherry pink, which made her look even more charming.

Lan Yiren couldn't help but feel a little envious. Although Zhaopin's appearance was not stunning, her figure and temperament added a lot of charm.

Xianxian supported her chin and said lazily, "I'm just a little annoyed."

As for the annoying thing, it may not necessarily be the fact that Concubine Wang is pregnant.

However, Lan Yiren sat up straight and looked at Xianxian, summoning her courage and said, "Your Majesty was originally favored, but this Concubine Wang popped up. It's really abominable. Your Majesty hasn't had a prince for many years. You must not let her give birth to a prince before Your Majesty!"

What is this speech from the military advisor?

Xianxian couldn't help but look at her and said, "What do you mean?"

"I have a plan that can help Your Majesty get rid of Concubine Wang and prevent her from giving birth to a prince before Your Majesty."

Looking at Lan Yiren's loyal appearance, Xianxian burst out laughing and held the handkerchief to her mouth.

"I don't take Concubine Wang seriously at all, and her child will not be a threat to me. You, you may have misunderstood me."

"I am troubled because there are disloyal palace maids in Luanyue Palace, not because of Concubine Wang."

Lan Yiren's face turned red. She quickly stood up, knelt down and bowed to Xianxian.

"Your Majesty, please forgive me. I spoke out of turn."

"Okay, stand up and sit down. I have never thought of targeting any concubines. You don't need to rush now. Just wait until your turn."

You have to know that Lan Yiren has a physique that makes it easy for her to get pregnant. She got pregnant after only one time of being favored by the emperor. Jing Yiren has been in the emperor's bedchamber many more times than her, but she is still not as pregnant as Lan Yiren.

Today, Lan Yi has been trained to be an excellent person by Xianxian, and Xianxian does not intend to waste her like this.

Lan Yiren sat down obediently, and the two chatted for a while. Then Lan Yiren returned to Ronghua Palace.

After Lan Yiren left, Xianxian couldn't help but think of Min Yucheng, so she got up and went into the inner room to open the scroll.

The landscape painting was exceptionally beautiful, and her delicate eyes were full of affection and tenderness, as she was looking at something through the painting.

Also at this time in the prince's mansion, Min Yucheng was painting, and he was very careful with every stroke. When his painting was finished, it turned out to be a picture of a woman admiring flowers.

The woman looked exactly like Xianxian, and even more lifelike. Min Yucheng waited until the ink of the painting had dried, and couldn't help but reach out and gently stroke the woman's face in the painting.

"He Nianyi, what an unforgettable name. Thinking of her every night, she is more like a charming fairy that captivates people's hearts."

There was a bright moonlight outside, and Min Yucheng stood up and opened the window. The bright moonlight fell on the painting, making the woman in the painting look even more ethereal.

For some reason, Min Yucheng thought of a line from the poem Goddess of Luo River, "It is as if a light cloud covers the moon, and it flutters like snow blown by the wind."

Min Yucheng looked up at Yuanyue and murmured softly, "Are you living well in the palace?"

It should be very good. After all, your father dotes on you extremely. To be the one with all the love is the lifelong wish of many women.

Xianxian didn't know that Min Yucheng was talking about her, and she slept soundly alone again that night.

Wang Jieyu relied on her pregnancy and would have stomachaches whenever she had a disagreement, so she had to ask someone to ask Min Ning to come. Min Ning attached great importance to this baby and naturally accompanied her every night.

The other concubines in the palace watched the joke and each of them was wondering whether Concubine Zhao would compete with Concubine Wang for Min Ning.

It’s a pity that Xianxian did nothing, and they were destined to be disappointed.

These days, Min Ning only came to see Xianxian during the day. Basically, he hadn't been in Luanyue Palace for half an hour before the maid of Concubine Wang came to invite people.

However, Min Ning was not angry at all. In his eyes, Xianxian was not as important as the royal heir.

Xianxian remained very calm because she probably guessed that someone was playing tricks.

Sure enough, Lan Yi came to pay her respects that day and told Jing Yi about the unusual things that had happened these days.

"Your Majesty, you may not know that Jingyi has been leaving home early and returning late these days. One time, I saw her returning just after dark, and she looked exhausted. Could it be that the Queen Mother doesn't like her anymore and is punishing her?"

Lan Yiren was a little confused while eating the cake, but Xianxian raised an eyebrow slightly.

"If the Queen Mother didn't like her, how could she do it secretly even if she wanted to punish her?"

Xianxian lowered her head and played with the jade bracelet on her wrist, her voice carrying a hint of profound meaning.

"I'm afraid the Queen Mother gave her what she wanted."

"What could it be?"

Facing Lan Yiren's curiosity, Xianxian curled her lips and smiled and shook her head, "Okay, don't ask around, just wait patiently, her secret will soon no longer be a secret."

After a few days of peace and quiet, it was time to pay respects to Concubine Quan on the first and fifteenth day of the lunar month.

Xianxian was dressed beautifully and went straight to Quanfei's palace on a sedan chair. Fortunately, she only had to pay her respects twice a month. If she had to pay her respects every day, it would have been really tiring.

At this time, almost all the people who had come to pay their respects in the palace had arrived, except for Xianxian and the pregnant Concubine Wang.

Because for more than ten days in a row, Min Ning was kept in the palace by Concubine Wang to accompany her. Even if the two of them were just chatting under the quilt, it was something that made Concubine Wang proud.

Today, Concubine Wang was dressed particularly flamboyantly. She walked in with a slightly bulging belly. She held her chin high and straightened her back, afraid that others would not see her belly.

She is now the darling of the palace, and who would dare to make her suffer?

Even Quan Fei showed her all kinds of concern. Concubine Wang sat opposite Xianxian with her hands on her belly, and her every move revealed a taste of affectation.

Concubine Quan looked at her and asked with concern, "Wang Jieyu, have you been sleeping well these days? Are you feeling well?"

"Thank you for your concern, Madam Concubine Quan. I am in good health. The little prince is very well in my belly. I believe he will be a filial child in the future. He knows how to sympathize with me and has never made trouble for me."

I have never seen such a self-praising person before, and Concubine Wang’s face was so proud that it was about to fly.

You have to know that being promoted from a beauty to a concubine is already three levels higher, and she is pregnant with a prince, so Concubine Wang is not a low-key person.
