Yixiu: "Your Majesty, I saw that Sister Xiyue has been working hard to take care of the sick. She has lost a lot of weight. I think she is weak to begin with. If she continues like this, I am afraid she will not be able to hold on."

Hongli said in embarrassment: "I feel sorry for her too, but the empress dowager is in great sorrow. I suggested that other concubines take turns to take care of her, but the empress dowager disagreed." As he spoke, he also felt a little resentful towards the empress dowager. She had made trouble for Ruyi before, and now she was making trouble for the imperial concubine. His concubines never got in her way.

Yixiu: "I think it would be better to invite Sister Hengti to stay in the palace for a while. It will always be happier to have a daughter accompany you. When you are happy, your illness will heal faster."

Although she wished that Zhen Huan would become half-dead, unable to live or die.

This was not a big deal, so Hongli agreed.

With Heng Ti's company, Zhen Huan saw that her illness was getting better. Perhaps she remembered that she still had a young daughter who needed her care, so she no longer had the intention of fighting to the death.

It was Gao Xiyue who fell seriously ill, and the concubines went to visit her together. Seeing Gao Xiyue's dazed look, they were sure that she was not pretending, and the imperial concubine did not have such acting skills.

The fig leaf has been torn off. Yixiu and Nanny Tao stopped pretending and directly let Jiang Yubin be responsible for treating the imperial concubine. Qi Ru said that he had taken care of the emperor and the empress dowager, and it would be no use taking care of the imperial concubine with two hands.

Gao Xiyue cherished her life so much that she was not afraid of the pain of taking medicine. She felt that her body was indeed much weaker than usual. The vicious face of the empress dowager and the stories of those resentful ghosts seeking revenge appeared in her mind again.

She couldn't sleep well at night. She had to drink calming soup and have Nanny Tao and Mo Xin Xing Xuan take turns guarding her bedside before she could fall asleep.

Gao Xiyue: "The Queen Mother will not let me go. It was obviously she who wanted to harm me first."

Seeing Gao Xiyue start to talk nonsense again, Mo Xin couldn't help but stepped forward to hug Gao Xiyue and said, "My dear, don't be afraid. The Queen Mother can't harm you. Look, you are fine."

Mo Xin: "She wanted to harm you with medicine, but we soon found out. Not only are you fine, but the Queen Mother's father died. This is what evil brings. My Lord, don't be afraid. You didn't do anything. Lord Gao and the Queen will protect you."

"Father, Queen, they will protect me..." Gao Xiyue murmured to herself, "Moxin, I'm tired, please make me some soothing soup."

……

Gao Xiyue fell seriously ill and Jiang Yubi said she would need at least half a month to recuperate. Yixiu simply exempted her from paying respects and asked Hailan to spend more time with her when she was free.

There is no shortage of good medicines and skilled imperial physicians in the left and right palaces. No matter how serious the illness is, medicine can be used to keep the patient alive, just like Concubine Duan did back then.

Without Gao Xiyue's nonsense when paying respects, not only did Ruyi feel better, but even Bai Ruiji, the concubine who had been silent for a long time, began to think about vying for favor.

It's interesting to say that without Hai Lan, Ruyi and Chunpin are the best off. Chunpin and Wan Da Ying are from the same hometown, and Wan Da Ying and Mei Da Ying have suffered the same fate, so the four of them gradually formed a faction.

It is really unclear how much affection there is between these people, but it can be said that he has a favorite, a son, and followers.

……

Another year passed, and when the Queen Mother and the ministers in the court were about to suspect that the Emperor had problems with his offspring, Concubine Chun and Jin Yuyan became pregnant at the same time.

Hongli breathed a sigh of relief, gave a lot of rewards to the two, and gave Jin Yuyan the title of Jia.

She actually wanted to promote Jin Yuyan, but since both of them were pregnant at the same time, it would be inappropriate to promote only one. However, if Chunpin was promoted again, she would be a concubine. If she was promoted just because she was pregnant, the queen would definitely not be satisfied. I don't know when he became like his father, and was extremely stingy with the positions of the concubines in the harem.

Certainly influenced by the Queen, Hongli simply passed the buck and intentionally ignored the benefits that the controlling position brought him.

Hongli then reflected on himself, why there had been no newborns in all these years since he ascended the throne. He thought that he had favored Ruyi and Hailan the most over the years, and it seemed that these two people had little chance of having children. Jia Changzai and Chunpin were both pregnant, which meant it was not his fault.

Yixiu knew that the two women had been pregnant for three months before they told him about it, but he didn't react. He gave them rewards according to the old rules. He sneered in his heart, not knowing whether the two children could be saved.

In order to ensure that she would give birth to a son, Jin Yuyan would definitely attack Chunbin who was also pregnant. Jin Yuyan herself was still wearing the red coral bracelet. No matter how small the effect was, it was still musk. Wearing it every day would definitely be bad for the fetus.
