My Lord, the princess doesn't want you anymore.

On the other side, after Concubine Shu sent Cui Qimo away, she sat alone for a long time in a daze, and no one knew what she was thinking about.

"Your Majesty, Prince Yan and Princess Yan have come to the palace to pay their respects." The palace maid came to report.

"They said they wanted to come to the palace yesterday. Why are they here now? Bring them in."

Looking at the increasingly plump belly of Prince Yan, Concubine Shu's face was long, "Look at you, your wife's belly didn't even get bigger, but you got pregnant first... uh..."

She stepped forward and took Princess Yan's hand, "I was also very angry at his behavior, but I'm not talking about you, so don't take it to heart."

Princess Yan smiled, "I know your personality very well, and I won't take it personally. But you need to have a good talk with the prince. He always likes to eat meat, and he eats a lot. After eating, he plays with flowers and plants, and doesn't exercise. I've been talking so much that I'm tired of it, but he just won't listen."

"I..." King Yan blushed, "Why haven't I exercised? I used to exercise every night, but you didn't allow me to..."

When Princess Yan heard this, she quickly turned around, covered her face, and said softly, "Mother, listen, is this what a prince should say?"

Concubine Shu was helpless and glared at Prince Yan fiercely, "He is just such a scoundrel, he has no manners."

She ignored the King of Yan and pulled the Princess of Yan to sit next to her, "Your eye makeup today is really beautiful..."

"Oh, if you hadn't told me, I would have almost forgotten. This is a new product from Guose Tianxiang. When I went shopping yesterday, I bought two specially. You can try it, mother... Oh, there is also this rouge. I heard that it is extracted from the petals of a kind of rose. Look at this color. It will look really good on you, mother."

Concubine Shu looked at the bottles and jars brought by her daughter-in-law and was so happy. "You are so lucky. You can go wherever you want. Unlike me, I can't even leave the palace. No matter how good the things of Guose Tianxiang are, I can only wish for them. You are so filial... This jade hairpin is also very beautiful. It has the unique logo of Guose Tianxiang on it... Help me take a look. How is it? Does it look good on me?"

"It looks good, it really looks good. I bought it thinking of my mother's appearance. It is especially suitable for her. On the Queen Mother's birthday in May, my mother will wear it to the birthday banquet. She will definitely be the most beautiful among all the beauties..."

"You are just sweet-talking! You are old now, how can you be so beautiful as to outshine all the other girls?"

"You can't say that. Among all the concubines in the harem, the one that father trusts the most is mother."

"That's because there hasn't been a new member in the harem for many years."

"Father has never been a king who likes women."

"My little ancestor, you dare to say such a thing..."

"Mother, I am just saying this to you..."

……

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were talking and laughing, as if they had completely forgotten that there was someone next to them.

Prince Yan couldn't get a word in at all. He tried to speak several times but was ignored. He was a little unhappy, "Mother, I am your biological son..."

Concubine Shu gave him another glare, "Shut up! You're making so much noise."

Prince Yan quickly shut up. The relationship between the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law had always been so harmonious. He was actually very happy in his heart, so he went to look at the flowers and plants in Concubine Shu's palace.

It was unknown how long it had passed, but the conversation between the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law about women's appearance and men's bad qualities finally came to an end. Only then did Concubine Shu take care of her son and waved for Prince Yan to come in and sit down.

Concubine Shu looked at his belly full of fat and said with some disdain, "Don't be unhappy to hear some things, but I still have to say it. You have been married for so many years..."

"Mother, I don't want to take a concubine!" Prince Yan interrupted her quickly, then glanced at Princess Yan as if to seek credit: Look, how well-behaved I am!

Concubine Shu's face turned serious. "When did I force you to take a concubine? I can't bear to see such a good daughter-in-law being bullied by other women."

"With her character, who would dare to bully her? It's my son himself who doesn't want to take a concubine."

Princess Yan smiled, but she was still a little worried about her pregnancy. "Mother, we want to try harder. If it doesn't work, don't worry about it. I will take care of it for the prince."

"You!" After hearing this, Concubine Shu sighed and patted the back of her hand, "My son doesn't want to take a concubine. He only has you in his heart. This is a good thing. Besides, if a bad one comes into the house, the whole mansion will be in turmoil. You see, the emperor has only a few women in the harem, isn't it still very troublesome - but the issue of offspring still needs to be kept in mind. I mentioned this matter today, not for what you think."

Prince Yan and his wife both breathed a sigh of relief.

As long as Prince Yan is not forced to take a concubine, everything will be fine.

Concubine Shu continued, "A few days ago, a new imperial physician came to the Imperial Hospital. His surname is Xue, and he is the legitimate son of the former Court Judge Xue. You know Court Judge Xue, right? If he were still alive, how could there be Court Judge Zhang today?"

The King of Yan said, "I know. When I was young, Xue Yuanpan treated me. His medical skills were amazing. Unfortunately, he died at the age of forty. I heard that he died because of an accident during drug testing. But mother, why do you mention him now?"

"You may not know that all of Judge Xue's medical skills were passed down to his son, Doctor Xue, who just entered the Imperial Hospital a few days ago. Speaking of Doctor Xue, I heard that he is even more talented than his father. He has been traveling around the world to treat illnesses and save lives. He is truly a compassionate doctor. Otherwise, your father would not have looked for him everywhere and invited him to the Imperial Hospital."

"Mother, do you want to ask this Imperial Doctor Xue to check on us?" asked Princess Yan.

"I had this idea originally, but I also felt that it was not convenient to publicize this matter. Aren't you afraid that you will be embarrassed? It just so happened that before you entered the palace, Doctor Xue came to my place and accidentally saw a kind of pill made by Miss Mei. He admired her so much on the spot that he even wanted to take her as his teacher. I only knew that Miss Mei was proficient in medicine before, but I didn't expect her to be so good. Even Doctor Xue praised her highly. I was thinking, since you have a good relationship with Miss Mei, why not let her help first. Some things are easier to say between women."

"Mother!" Princess Yan was a little embarrassed. "Actually, I, we have already let Miss Mei take a look at it before..."

"What?" Concubine Shu suddenly became nervous. "Then, what did she say?"

Princess Yan lowered her head: "She said that there is no problem with both of us, and we will get pregnant eventually. The problem is, the problem is... Oh, I won't say it anymore..."

As he spoke, his face turned as red as pig liver.

Concubine Shu was even more confused. "Tell me, what's the problem?"

Princess Yan's head almost dropped to her chest, and even her ears were red. She stole a glance at the King of Yan and said, "Mother, let the prince speak for himself."

Prince Yan had already sensed that the situation was not right, so he immediately got up and hid outside the house.

Concubine Shu was anxious and held Princess Yan's hand tightly, "You, tell me quickly!"

"Mother." Princess Yan had no choice but to speak in a mosquito-like voice, "What Princess Jing said is that you can't get pregnant because the prince doesn't know how to control himself..."

Concubine Shu almost spit out her tea and blushed. She didn't know what to say, so she awkwardly picked up a piece of five-dragon cake from the small table beside her and said, "Well, this cake is good, let me try it..."

The Princess of Yan took it and was about to put it in her mouth when she suddenly felt nauseous. She touched her stomach and felt like vomiting, and her face turned pale.

Concubine Shu was terrified and quickly ordered, "Where is Imperial Doctor Xue? Hurry up and ask Imperial Doctor Xue..."

Afterwards, everyone was overjoyed because Imperial Physician Xue said that Princess Yan was pregnant.

After a commotion, Prince Yan carefully helped his princess back to the palace, his face almost broken with laughter.

"Slow down..." Concubine Shu warned again from behind: "Listen to me, serve your wife well. If you dare to act recklessly and hurt the child or your wife again, I will never forgive you..."

The smile on Prince Yan's face froze, and he hurriedly helped Princess Yan slip away in a more humbly manner.

Concubine Shu looked at the two's backs and was happy for a long time before she ordered the palace servants, "Find a few reliable maids and servants to serve the Prince of Yan's mansion. Find a wet nurse in advance and prepare a few more midwives in advance... Also, prepare some snacks that the Eighth Prince likes. I'll go see the child."
