I traveled through time just for the jade hairpin, I never wanted to be the queen

The next morning, Ling Junqi set out for the north to pick up Doctor Jian.

He Tingxi took Ling Xiyue to the Yangxin Palace in the imperial palace to pay a visit to the emperor.

He Tingxi was sitting in a wheelchair and just bowed, while Ling Xiyue knelt down to salute.

"My son, I would like to send my regards to my father."

"My daughter-in-law pays homage to her father."

The emperor saw He Tingxi and Ling Xiyue, with a smile on his face, and gestured with his hand, "No need to be polite, get up."

"Thank you, Father."

After Ling Xiyue stood up, she stood next to He Tingxi and lowered her head slightly.

"Why did you come together today? Is there something important?" the emperor asked in a friendly manner.

He Tingxi glanced at Ling Xiyue from the side, then turned to look at the emperor and said seriously: "Father, there is something important. Xiyue, she is already two months pregnant."

The emperor was stunned for a moment, then his eyebrows lit up with joy. He asked excitedly, "She's really pregnant?"

"Yes. Doctor Hu in the mansion has already taken his pulse." He Tingxi nodded heavily.

The emperor, who received a positive answer, breathed a sigh of relief and sighed.

"That's great. I can finally put down the heavy stone in my heart."

Seeing this, He Tingxi and Ling Xiyue looked at each other tacitly without saying anything.

Soon, a smile appeared on the emperor's face, and he looked at He Tingxi and Ling Xiyue.

"Tingxi, I promised you that as long as Xiyue gets pregnant, I will enthrone you as the King of Yan. Today, I will issue an edict to enthrone you as the King of Yan, Xiyue as the Princess of Yan, and reward you with 20,000 taels of silver and 1,000 taels of gold."

When Ling Xiyue heard this, her eyes instantly widened larger than copper bells.

I couldn't help but wonder: So much money as a reward? It's shocking.

He Tingxi was overjoyed, and when he was about to thank him, he looked at Ling Xiyue first. Seeing that Ling Xiyue was in a daze, he gently pulled the corner of Ling Xiyue's clothes with his hand and signaled Ling Xiyue to thank him with his eyes.

Ling Xiyue finally reacted. She hurriedly knelt on the ground and kowtowed to the emperor.

Thank the emperor together with He Tingxi.

"Thank you, Father, for your grace."

The emperor nodded with satisfaction, motioned with his hand for Ling Xiyue to stand up, and said gently: "Xiyue, you are pregnant, so you don't have to kneel down to greet me when you see me in the future."

Ling Xiyue stood up and bowed her head slightly, "Yes, thank you, father."

"Tingxi, take Xiyue to report the good news to the Empress Dowager and your mother first. As for the appointment of King of Yan and other matters, I will arrange them soon." The emperor ordered.

"Yes, thank you, father. I'll take my leave first." He Tingxi nodded.

"Daughter-in-law, take your leave." Ling Xiyue also said.

Ling Xiyue pushed He Tingxi out of the Yangxin Palace, and Shi Hui took the initiative to step forward and took over.

"Shi Hui, go to the Imperial Grandmother first."

"Yes."

Ling Xiyue followed He Tingxi. Thinking of the emperor's reward, she was very excited. She wanted to ask He Tingxi in detail, but seeing Shi Hui was there, she did not ask.

When they arrived at the Empress Dowager's palace, Ling Xiyue pushed the wheelchair in while Shi Hui waited outside the palace.

After Ling Xiyue and the others entered, they each bowed first.

When the Queen Mother saw He Tingxi, she smiled and asked, "Tingxi, you brought Xiyue here today. You must have good news to tell me, right?"

"Yes, it's good news. It's Xiyue, she is pregnant and has been pregnant for two months." He Tingxi said with a smile.

The Queen Mother was stunned for a moment, then she was overjoyed. She gestured with her hand for Ling Xiyue to come forward.

"Xiyue, come here, come and sit here with me."

When Ling Xiyue saw this, she subconsciously looked at He Tingxi. He Tingxi smiled and nodded, and then she walked to the Queen Mother, but she did not sit down.

Upon seeing this, the Queen Mother took Ling Xiyue's hand and motioned for her to sit down again.

"Xiyue, sit down and don't get tired." The Queen Mother said gently.

Ling Xiyue then sat down next to the Queen Mother, "Thank you, Grandmother."

The Queen Mother looked at Ling Xiyue beside her with a kind face, and liked her more and more.

"Xiyue, you are a great contributor. Did you know that there have always been many rumors about Tingxi in the outside world? I am very distressed. Now that you are pregnant, you can prove to the world that Tingxi is in a normal body and there is nothing wrong with her. I am very happy just thinking about it."

"Grandmother, you are too polite. Carrying a child is the duty of a granddaughter-in-law." Ling Xiyue said respectfully.

"Well, Xiyue is such a good child." The Queen Mother praised.

Then, the Queen Mother ordered Nanny An beside her, "Nanny An, go to the inner room and get 50 taels of gold. I want to reward Xiyue."

"Yes." The nanny responded and walked into the inner room.

Ling Xiyue was immediately excited, but she declined, "Grandmother, how can I accept it as your granddaughter-in-law?"

"Xiyue, just accept it." The Queen Mother patted the back of Ling Xiyue's hand and comforted her.

After a while, Nanny An came out holding a box. She handed the box to the empress dowager first, who took it and placed it in Ling Xiyue's hand.

"Xiyue, all this gold is for you alone, so just use it with confidence. If you want to eat something, just tell the servants to buy it for you. You must take good care of yourself and give birth to a big fat boy safely and smoothly." The Queen Mother ordered with a smile.

Ling Xiyue looked at the box in her hand, then looked at He Tingxi again. Seeing He Tingxi nod to her, she accepted it and knelt on the ground.

"Granddaughter-in-law thanks the Imperial Grandmother for the reward."

When the Queen Mother saw this, she hurriedly helped Ling Xiyue up and said distressedly, "Don't kneel. You are pregnant now, so you don't need to kneel. Just a simple salute will be enough."

"Yes, thank you, Grandmother." After Ling Xiyue stood up, she did not sit down but stood.

Seeing this, the Queen Mother pulled Ling Xiyue to sit down again.

"Xiyue, there's no need to be so reserved in front of your grandmother. Just sit down and talk." The Queen Mother said gently.

"Yes." Ling Xiyue responded obediently.

Looking at the well-behaved Ling Xiyue in front of her, the Queen Mother was satisfied and liked her, and she began to praise her.

"The first time I saw you, I liked you very much. I knew you were a very blessed child. Not only are you sensible and well-behaved, but you can also give birth to children for Tingxi so quickly."

"The Empress Dowager has made my granddaughter-in-law feel shy. In fact, the greatest blessing for me is to marry Your Highness." Ling Xiyue flattered.

When He Tingxi heard this, his heart instantly blossomed with joy, and the corners of his mouth curved up unconsciously.

The Queen Mother was very satisfied with Ling Xiyue's answer and nodded.

"Xiyue, you are so good at talking. I am very happy to see you and Tingxi getting along so well."

"Yes." Ling Xiyue responded with a faint smile.

The Queen Mother had been staring at Ling Xiyue, and thinking that Ling Xiyue was pregnant and should not stay any longer, she spoke.

"Xiyue, you must be tired. If you have nothing else to do, go back and rest early. You must rest well, understand?"

After the Queen Mother finished speaking, he looked at He Tingxi and ordered: "Tingxi, you must take good care of Xiyue and don't let her worry too much."

"Yes, don't worry, Grandmother." He Tingxi and Ling Xiyue answered together.

"Well, let's go back first."

"Yes."

Ling Xiyue stood up, holding the box, and bowed slightly to the Queen Mother.

He Tingxi saw Ling Xiyue coming over and took the initiative to reach out, "Let me take it."
