Time Travel: The actress's acting skills exploded, and she was favored by the harem

This timely snowfall quickly put an end to the drought that had just emerged and instantly dispelled the worries of the people in the capital and surrounding areas about the new year's crop harvest.

Not only that, along with this heavy snow came the second handwritten letter of surrender from the Emperor of Jinfeng Kingdom.

This means that from now on, the Jinfeng Kingdom will completely submit to the Zhao Kingdom, pay tribute every year, and be a vassal every year.

The people living on the border were no longer harassed by the fierce foreign enemy, the Jinfeng Kingdom, and countless families were spared the suffering of war.

Bo Mu was overjoyed upon hearing the news, and after discussing with the empress dowager in Renshou Palace, he immediately named the fourth prince "Bo Cheji" and issued an edict immediately to grant amnesty to the entire country as a token of the emperor's grace.

On that day, the news that the Fourth Prince was blessed with good fortune and was God's chosen prince spread like wildfire and reached everywhere in an instant.

In the entire palace, Concubine Zhao was the most disappointed. Her last fantasy was shattered. The Fourth Prince was born with such a menacing force that the eldest prince's chances of success in the future were reduced by 10%.

In Fengyi Palace, the Queen and Shen Zhiyao were teasing the infant Fourth Prince. The boy was chubby and rosy, very adorable.

"Empress, our Fourth Prince will be a handsome man in the future! Look, he really looks like the Emperor. I wonder how many women will compete to admire him in the future." Shen Zhiyao said with a smile.

"Yes, I have seen that the Fourth Prince has been soaking in the amniotic fluid for a long time. After a few days, when he has grown up, he will be so adorable that people will not want to let him go!" Shijin agreed with a smile.

"I never thought that my little baby is actually a prince! But I have been dreaming about a chubby and cute little girl for several days, and I thought it would be a princess..." said the queen with a smile.

"The Queen loves the little princess too much and is overthinking it... But a prince is even better. It's so wonderful to have so many handsome boys around you." Shen Zhiyao said with a smile.

"Well, it's okay even if he is a prince. As long as the child can grow up healthily, everything is fine..." The queen smiled and pinched the child's chubby face.

The Queen had mixed feelings at this time. She had personally participated in Bo Muxi's battle for the throne and had seen through the palace struggles. How could she not be afraid?

Now that she has given birth to a prince, she feels regretful, but not so regretful.

Thinking of this, the queen couldn't help but look at Shen Zhiyao. Fortunately, she and Shen Zhiyao had already been in love for a long time. If this child could ascend to the throne in the future, Zhiyao and the Shen family would be a great help.

Of course, the Queen never worried that Shen Zhiyao would turn against her and her son for the sake of her child. She understood Shen Zhiyao too well. If she really had that intention, she would have coveted her position as Queen long ago. Why would she have to wait until the child's generation?

Seeing the queen staring at her in a daze, Shen Zhiyao smiled and joked, "Queen, you must keep this a secret for me! Don't tell the Fourth Prince that I spanked him upside down when he was born! Otherwise, the child will definitely hold a grudge against me!"

The Queen smiled tenderly upon hearing this: "How could that be? This child is destined to be with you. He will know in the future how good his mother Consort Jin is to him. How can he blame you?"

"Your Majesty, you really flatter me. Our Fourth Prince is so blessed, truly the chosen one of God. I still have to follow the Fourth Prince and benefit from him." Shen Zhiyao smiled and waved her hands.

"You are his closest mother, and you have saved his mother's life. I will be filial to you in the future. If he dares to treat you badly, I will deal with him." The queen said with a smile.

"Empress..." Shen Zhiyao put away her smile and said seriously, "I just saved you once by chance, and it was all because of my true love for you. Please don't talk about saving me or not in the future. I did all that just for the sake of reward. If you bring it up like this again, I will be really sad..."

Shen Zhiyao was really worried. If the Queen kept mentioning it, it would be like she was morally blackmailing her and her son, and she would inevitably be criticized by the Fourth Prince in the future.

Although she had saved the queen and her son, she never dared to consider herself a benefactor. To them, Shen Zhiyao only played the emotional card. Only in this way could the relationship last long.

"Okay..." The Queen patted Shen Zhiyao's hand, her face full of apology: "It was me who made a fuss, don't take it to heart, I won't mention it again in the future."

"That's good. Thank you, Your Majesty." Shen Zhiyao was obviously very happy, and her smile was particularly sweet.

That afternoon, Shen Zhiyao only stayed with the Queen in Fengyi Palace for a while before leaving at the appropriate time.

After all, the Emperor and Queen Mother Zhao have to come too. It would be bad if they met me, as it would make me seem too eager.

Not long after Shen Zhiyao left, Queen Mother Zhao and the Emperor went to Fengyi Palace together and gave the Queen many rewards. Of course, they also asked Lin En to give a lot to Shen Zhiyao.

That night, there was another Lantern Festival family banquet. Some days before, Shen Zhiyao and Concubine Zhuang had already directed the Ministry of Internal Affairs to prepare it.

They thought that the Empress Dowager loved to listen to operas, so they simply set up a few tables in the "Qingyin Pavilion" and asked a troupe to perform two operas to make the Empress Dowager happy.

The Queen was still in confinement after giving birth, so she couldn't attend, but Shen Zhiyao was still thoughtful enough to set up a table in Fengyi Palace so that the people in the Queen's palace could entertain themselves.

Shen Zhiyao attended the event in a gorgeous dress, wearing a bright yellow skirt, a light yellow mink coat, and a white pure rabbit fur cloak.

Such a bright outfit makes her skin look particularly fair and tender. As soon as she entered the "Qingyin Pavilion", she instantly became the most eye-catching one.

Concubine Zhao gritted her teeth as she watched. This woman was always so ostentatious. She didn't even know how to keep a low profile even when she was pregnant. She was really here to "ruin the show".

The female relatives sat and talked for a long time before the emperor and the empress dowager finally arrived.

Upon hearing the announcement, everyone stood up and saluted, wishing to show their best side to the emperor.

The queen was not here today, so Shen Zhiyao stood at the front and led all the concubines in paying their respects.

"Everyone, get up. I'm very happy today that I have a legitimate eldest son. You don't have to be so formal." Bo Muxi smiled and helped Shen Zhiyao up. He held her hand and sat down with Queen Dowager Zhao.

Of course, Shen Zhiyao still sat in the imperial concubine's seat according to the rules, and deliberately left an empty seat for the queen as a sign of respect.

Only then did everyone dare to thank him and take their seats.

Shen Zhiyao's outfit was really too eye-catching. Although she looked a little rounder now, she was more charming than when she was thin, which made Bo Muxi glance at her frequently.

Queen Mother Zhao naturally saw the emperor's actions, so she pretended to cough twice, signaling the emperor to restrain himself.

Only then did Bo Muxi retract his gaze. His mother was also someone he cherished in his heart, so he had to listen to her words.

"Today is a happy day. Everyone here is family. It's rare for us to get together for a meal, so just have fun." Queen Mother Zhao smiled and waved her hand, and the family dinner officially began.

The troupe received instructions and took turns to perform on stage, and Qingyin Pavilion instantly became lively.

Bo Muxi turned his head to look at Shen Zhiyao who was busy eating, and smiled dotingly, "Lin'en, tell the imperial kitchen to add a dish of braised pigeon and spinach meatballs to Princess Jin to nourish her well."

Lin En responded and went out with a smile.

Shen Zhiyao also heard it, and looked up and glared at the emperor. Was he dissatisfied with the emperor for eating too fast?

Seeing her like this, Bo Muxi smiled and said, "Don't think too much, my beloved concubine. I just saw that you were eating so happily, so I wanted you to eat more."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Shen Zhiyao wiped the corner of her mouth with a smile.

Bo Muxi lowered his voice and said, "Why thank you? My beloved concubine is obviously pregnant, and I am also looking forward to this child..."

People far away naturally could not hear what the emperor said, but Concubine Zhao and Concubine Zhuang were sitting nearby, so they naturally heard it all.

Concubine Zhuang didn't react, but Concubine Zhao glared at Shen Zhiyao fiercely, feeling very uncomfortable...
