Qing Dynasty: The Imperial Concubine is Pregnant Again

A huge thunder sounded.

"boom!"

The Fourth Lady, who was lying on the bed, sat up suddenly, gasping for breath. This was one of the countless nightmares she had in the first month of the year. In the dream, she always saw Concubine Tong laughing arrogantly, while Yinzhen was beside her, looking at her with a gloomy face.

When Ulanara saw herself lying in a pool of blood, her body and mind desolate, she laughed and shouted, "It's my fault that those princes and princesses died! It's all my fault!" In the end, she was chopped to death by the furious Yinzhen.

“…Qiuli, light the candles.” Ulanara instructed the senior palace maid beside her. Qiuli was Ulanara’s maid who came with her as a dowry. She entered the Fourth Prince’s backyard together with her and was the most tolerant person around her.

"Madam, are you having a nightmare again? I'll call a doctor for you tomorrow." Qiu Li was a few years older than Ulanara, and played the role of a loyal servant and accompanying relative beside her. Palace maids could leave the palace at the age of 25, but Qiu Li, because of her loyalty, had her hair combed and became the head aunt.

"Oh, no need. Please don't pay your respects to me as a concubine this month. Just say that I am not feeling well." Ulanara let Qiu Li wipe the sweat from his head due to the nightmare. She was filled with fear in her heart: How could I have such a dream?

Fallen Plum Courtyard.

Li Qingya, who was also awakened by a nightmare, couldn't fall asleep either. She covered her heart tightly with her palm, her whole body trembling, and her hair on her forehead was wet with cold sweat: "It's not me, it's not me!"

"Princess, what did you say was not you?" Dongying, the head of Luomei Courtyard, who came in because of the noise, asked this question, which caused Li Qingya on the bed to react quite strongly.

The pair of usually gentle almond-shaped eyes were now filled with resentment, and because of the fright, there were obvious red bloodshot in the eyeballs as they stared at Dongying.

"Princess?" Dongying was sent by the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Li Qingya had cultivated her for nearly ten years and she was a loyal and useful person.

"Dongying, do you think there are ghosts and gods in the world?" Li Qingya, who had the same continuous nightmares as the Fourth Lady, was a little horrified at this time. If there were no ghosts and gods, why had she been having the same dream for more than ten days?

"Princess, what's wrong with you? If there are ghosts and gods, I am not afraid of them!" Dongying never believed in ghosts and gods. She grew up in misery. If there were ghosts and gods, why didn't any god come to save her?

“…Okay, you go down first.” Li Qingya could clearly see the ghosts of those who were murdered by squinting her eyes. Many of them were invisible, and they were walking towards her with mutilated bodies.

After Dongying left, Li Qingya threw the quilt down fiercely: "Don't come to me, it's all your fault! Don't blame me if you can't come to this world!"

……

Mid-February of the 39th year of the Kangxi reign.

"Qiuyu, what did the people from the main courtyard say just now?" Tong Nuanyan looked at the two batches of cotton-padded clothes that Longkodo had just sent. The first batch of cotton-padded clothes was received in the late January, but she was cautious and had never shown it to Yinzhen. But now she can show it because the cotton-padded clothes factory has been open for half a month and has some reputation in the capital.

"Concubine, Qiuli said that Princess Su from the side courtyard is three months pregnant." Qiuyu said this with an unnatural look on her face, as if she was afraid that Tong Nuanyan would be unhappy.

Tong Nuanyan lowered her eyelids to hide the indifference in her eyes: "That's good. It's been three months since you told her. Since Su Gege is pregnant, give her the Hetian jade necklace that the Fourth Master gave her two days ago."

For Tong Nuanyan, Yinzhen was just an option for having children in her heart, and she didn't need to invest her true heart in him. She cultivated her supernatural powers, and with the incredible technology and sci-fi items in the mall, she was different from Yinzhen after all.

I tried to ignore the sour feeling in my heart. Actually, from the day I entered the Fourth Prince's backyard, I had made up my mind to have a child. Why was I still feeling a little sour?

"Madam, I'll go right away!" Qiuyu looked at her and made sure that she was still as calm as before and not unhappy at all. Only then did she feel at ease to go to the storehouse to get the necklace.

Now, the baby in her belly is almost four months old. Except for the severe morning sickness when she was about to get pregnant for three months, the rest of the time was relatively quiet. Tong Nuanyan used her supernatural power to look inside the baby in her belly. Now the baby has grown a body and limbs, and her sexual organs can be vaguely seen.

What is strange is that during this period, the Fourth Lady and Li, who was appointed as a concubine by Yinzhen a few days ago, rarely went out except to the front yard to deliver things to Yinzhen.

[Hehe, host, you don't know this, right?] 805 gloated at this time. Tong Nuanyan could feel 805 flashing in her mind, and she was obviously very happy.

"805, what did you do? Tell me the truth!" It was obvious at a glance that 805 had done something.

[Host, I did this for your own good. These two people framed you on New Year's Eve, and you didn't care, but I couldn't stand it! So, I made them have nightmares. We have to thank Xia Xi for this. As a nanny bionic man, she was able to hypnotize them through the air and made them have nightmares for half a month.]

"You mean, you can hypnotize people through the air? That Xia Xi is so good at it?" Why can a bionic person used as a nanny be able to hypnotize people?

805 seemed to know what Tong Nuanyan was worried about, and quickly came out to explain: [It's like this, I have read the detailed information of the Star Mall. Nanny bionic people are not only used as wet nurses and nannies. In the Star Era, nobles would spend a lot of money to create exclusive bionic people for their heirs. Bionic people recognize the heir as their master when they are born, and solve any problems for him, including enemies. ]

It seems that Xia Xi is very useful, and at present he is the only nanny bionic man, and there will not be more in the future, so he must be utilized.

"So you say, can Xia Xi only recognize one child as her master?" Tong Nuanyan wondered, what if there are more children in the future and they cannot be distributed?

[Host, this is the case at the moment, so this bionic man is important, but host, don't worry, there will be other bionic men in the future, although they can't compare to this one, but they are also top-notch in this dynasty. ]

What 805 said makes sense, but this is going too far. It is better to make good use of the items every month.

"805, thank you." Tong Nuanyan was also moved by what 805 did. She originally thought it was a unimportant matter, but someone was thinking of helping her get revenge.

[It's okay, it's okay. We are all good friends, right? ]

Are you good friends?

805 is a good friend.

In the evening, Yinzhen came to Piaoxue Courtyard from the front yard.

"Yanyan, is the baby bothering you?" Yinzhen reached out and touched her bulging belly, asking with concern.

"It's not even four months yet. The imperial physician said that you can only feel the baby's movements when it's five months old." Tong Nuanyan put her hand on Yinzhen's hand and felt the fetus's movements with him. Although they couldn't feel it, the atmosphere between them was particularly warm.

"How have you been lately? Are you still suffering from morning sickness?" Yinzhen thought of Tong Nuanyan's morning sickness again. She couldn't eat anything and felt nauseous at the smell of anything. In the end, she had to eat a lot of pickled radishes to feel better.

"Yinzhen, I haven't had any morning sickness recently, and the imperial physician also said that I shouldn't have symptoms of morning sickness again." Tong Nuanyan smiled at Yinzhen, signaling that he didn't need to worry, and then talked about another matter.

"Qiuyu, bring the things on the small table in the bedroom." Seeing Yinzhen's slightly frowned brows, she had to explain: "Yinzhen, do you know what's popular in the capital now? These two days, my father sent a batch of new clothes. They are very warm to wear in winter, warmer than many other clothes."

She took the cotton-padded jacket that Qiuyu brought and placed it in front of Yinzhen: "Yinzhen, look, this is it. It's very warm to wear it inside. I was thinking, Yinzhen, you go out to court in the early morning every day, and it's so cold before dawn. You won't feel cold if you put on this cotton-padded jacket."

Yinzhen held it in his hand and felt it carefully. This was actually a simple cotton coat with a smooth black outer layer and a frosted lining with checkered stitching, and soft padding in the middle.

"What's in there?"

Yinzhen's observation ability is really amazing. He can see the key point at a glance.

"There's just ordinary cotton in it. The more cotton you put in, the warmer it will be." Tong Nuanyan still didn't understand why Yinzhen had such a big reaction to the cotton. She knew that there was cotton in this dynasty.

"cotton?"
