Shen Zhiyao accompanied the emperor in entertaining him for a while before bowing and saying, "Your Majesty, there are still many ladies waiting at Huayu Palace. I can't treat them badly, so I will take my leave first."

"Okay, my beloved concubine, you must also take care of your body and not overwork yourself." Bo Muxi said with a smile.

Upon hearing this, everyone hurriedly stood up and bowed to see him off.

Shen Zhiyao returned to Huayu Palace. Instead of rushing out, she went to the inner room to change into casual clothes.

The imperial concubine's palace dress is too complicated and heavy. It is not very comfortable to wear for a long time. It is better to change it as soon as possible.

She deliberately changed into a crimson dress and put on a simple gold hairpin on her head so that she could completely relax.

When Shen Zhiyao walked into the front hall, everyone stood up and greeted her with smiles, their words full of compliments.

Concubine Zhao congratulated him hastily, gave him some valuable gifts, and then left on the pretext of feeling unwell.

Shen Zhiyao naturally did not force him to stay. She just said a few polite words to retain him and then let him go.

Concubine Zhuang and Concubine Wan congratulated her sincerely. After all, they got along well with Shen Zhiyao on a daily basis, so they were busy helping Shen Zhiyao entertain the guests.

Shen Zhiyao was pregnant and could only drink water instead of wine, but Concubine Zhuang and Concubine Wan helped Shen Zhiyao drink a lot of wine.

They don't care about what others say behind their backs. From now on, with Shen Zhiyao taking care of them, Concubine Zhao won't be able to suppress them easily.

The banquet lasted until the evening, when everyone got up and dispersed.

Shen Zhiyao had been busy from morning till night and was extremely tired. Just as she was about to take a shower and go to bed, the emperor came again.

When the emperor arrived, everyone was busy cleaning up.

Shen Zhiyao hurriedly came out with a smile and saluted, saying, "Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you. May your Majesty be blessed with good health."

Bo Muxi held her and said with a smile, "Well, hurry up and don't be polite. My beloved concubine, you have worked hard today. Are you satisfied with the canonization ceremony that the Queen and I have held for you?"

No matter how tired he was, Bo Muxi felt that his mood would immediately brighten up as soon as he saw Shen Zhiyao.

"Your Majesty, I am not that picky! I am so happy today. Although I cannot drink, I feel like I am already drunk with happiness right now." Shen Zhiyao said as she leaned towards the emperor.

Bo Muxi smiled and put his arm around her waist, saying, "I see that the Queen has decorated this place quite grandly, and all the things here are top-quality new items. If my beloved concubine needs anything, just tell me, and I'll have someone prepare it and send it to you."

"I have just moved in, and I haven't noticed anything missing yet. After living here for a while, if I really feel that something is missing, I will tell His Majesty. I will not be polite with you." Shen Zhiyao said coquettishly.

After that, Shen Zhiyao accompanied the emperor on a general tour. The decoration of this three-courtyard palace was only slightly worse than that of Fengyi Palace. Bo Muxi was very satisfied and kept praising the queen for her ability to do things.

"My beloved, have you prepared for our child's future residence?" Bo Muxi asked with a smile.

Shen Zhiyao smiled and nodded, thinking: What nonsense, after all, the child is my flesh and blood, how can I lose it?

"Your Majesty, the child's living quarters are in the last entrance. The Empress and I worked together to oversee the cleaning. It's very nice." Shen Zhiyao said with a smile.

After Bo Muxi went to see it specially, he was also very satisfied.

"My beloved concubine is really capable." Bo Muxi took Shen Zhiyao's hand and led her to the front hall.

"Well, I may have done it. Your Majesty, please don't underestimate me." Shen Zhiyao said with a smile, not modest at all.

The two of them sat in the front hall and chatted about family matters for a while. Shen Zhiyao was really too tired to continue, so Bo Muxi washed up with her and went into the inner room.

That night, Bo Muxi still couldn't help himself and acted like a "beast" again, pressing Shen Zhiyao down on the couch and restraining himself from "bullying" her twice.

"My beloved concubine is pregnant now, but her figure is still so attractive... When I touch her skin, it is as delicate as cream..." Bo Muxi said, and gently stroked her skin with his slender and powerful fingers.

Shen Zhiyao was so teased by him that she sighed: "Your Majesty... why are you so mean... I am pregnant, please be careful..."

"I naturally know my limits, my beloved, just enjoy yourself..." Bo Muxi said, and then continued to tease her with a wicked smile.

Shen Zhiyao was upset by his troubles and was so angry that she bit his shoulder several times, even leaving two not-so-deep marks.

"You are so bold, biting me again..." Of course, Bo Muxi was not really angry, but just found other ways to "punish" her.

"Your Majesty, please don't bully me. I apologize to you. Please... stop teasing me..." Shen Zhiyao pretended to be gentle.

Bo Muxi laughed evilly twice: "After a few days, I won't dare to treat my beloved concubine like this. Thinking of this, I can't easily forgive my beloved concubine this time."

Shen Zhiyao looked at Bo Muxi who was "doing evil" above with resentment, and resigned herself to his fate and let him do whatever he wanted.

In order to please the emperor, Shen Zhiyao also began to cooperate actively. Since she couldn't resist, she might as well immerse herself in the enjoyment.

The baby in Shen Zhiyao's belly had already been firmly implanted, and Bo Muxi was afraid that doing this too much would affect the baby, so even though he was not completely satisfied, he had to end it hastily.

Even so, Shen Zhiyao couldn't stand it. After finishing, she fell asleep in seconds without caring what the emperor was nagging about.

Bo Muxi looked at Shen Zhiyao's pleasing sleeping face and suddenly laughed. He loved this bold concubine so much.

Bo Muxi was born cold-hearted and emotionless, and now all his feelings were given to the sleeping woman in his arms.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but gently stroke Shen Zhiyao's lower abdomen, which was pregnant with the fruit of their love.

Although there was still a layer of separation, Bo Muxi seemed to be able to feel the rhythm of that little life, and suddenly felt warm in his heart.

Bo Muxi secretly thought that he would give this child all the good things in this world without any reservation...

Shen Zhiyao slept very deeply that night, and when she opened her eyes again, it was already past noon the next day.

"Qiuyue...what time is it? Why didn't you call me?" Shen Zhiyao sighed.

"My lady, it's past lunch time. When the emperor left, he specially asked Eunuch Lin'en to go to Fengyi Palace to ask for leave for you. I feel sorry for you, too. You got up before dawn yesterday and have been busy all day. You're pregnant too. It's okay to sleep a little longer." Qiuyue explained carefully as she helped her get up and wash.

"Well. Never mind. It's too late. It's rare for me to sleep in this late throughout the year." Shen Zhiyao yawned. She really had a good sleep and her mood improved a lot.

After a late lunch, Shen Zhiyao went to Fengyi Palace to chat with the Queen to relieve her boredom. Now that they lived so close, it was much more convenient for them to get around.
