The Royal Family's Orphan is on the Rise

Liu Xu walked quickly to the emperor's presence, and Li Jiang glanced at him.

"Your Majesty, Concubine Li has brought the Fourteenth Prince to see you."

"Lipin? Why is she here?"

Emperor Shun of Yuan Dynasty could not say whether he liked or disliked this concubine. To him, Concubine Li was the mascot of the palace.

But no matter what, she was innocent after all. So when he found out that she had gotten pregnant with his child, he was just so angry that he grounded her for half a year.

"It's soup for the emperor."

"Okay, let them in."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Seeing Liu Xu coming out with a smile on her face, Lipin was filled with joy and asked eagerly.

"Eunuch Liu, what does the emperor say?"

"The Emperor is summoning you and the Fourteenth Prince to come in. Your Majesty and the Fourteenth Prince, please follow me."

"Okay, thank you Eunuch Liu." Concubine Li glanced at Qingya, the head maid beside her, and Qingya took out a silver ingot and gave it to Liu Xu.

Seeing his majestic father, the Fourteenth Prince was a little scared.

Concubine Li bowed respectfully.

"Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you. May your Majesty be at peace."

The fourteenth prince also followed the etiquette and saluted: "Your son pays respect to your father."

Seeing him shrinking a little, Emperor Yuan Shun frowned. Seeing his expression change slightly, Concubine Li felt a little frightened, and she kept forcing a smile.

"No gift."

"I thank you, Your Majesty."

The fourteenth prince said cautiously, "Thank you, father."

"Your Majesty, I have made you some pickled fish, which is a good dish to go with rice. The soup is delicious. Please try it."

"Then try it."

Fengyi Palace

The queen lay on the phoenix couch with her eyes closed, pretending to be asleep. Bai Yuechu stepped forward.

"Your Majesty, I heard that Concubine Li went to the Imperial Study, and she brought the Fourteenth Prince and Tang with her."

"This Lipin has learned her lesson in the past few years."

Nanny Luo said, "There is also Princess Yongkang's warning and reminder, otherwise Lipin would probably cause a lot of trouble."

"You are right. Yi Yi is indeed my good daughter. She always stands on the same side with me."

When thinking of Princess Yongkang, Bai Yuechu's eyes were filled with tenderness.

"Your Majesty, you raised the princess. She came to your side when she was seven years old. How can this love be compared with others? Besides, our princess is also smart. She knows how to protect herself and avoid the sharp edge."

The Queen sighed, "Ah, she is just too sensible, sometimes it makes me feel distressed. Take her marriage for example, if I knew she had chosen a prince consort with such a good family background, I would definitely not agree. This child is sometimes too opinionated, I don't know if it is a good thing or a bad thing."

Nanny Luo said, "Your Highness, the princess has her own considerations. Besides, the couple is quite happy now. They even gave birth to such lovely twins, a boy and a girl. It is rare in the whole capital. Only the Xie family can compare."

Thinking of her two lovely grandchildren, the queen's heart softened.

Queen: It’s a pity that they are not grandchildren. It would be better if they were.

"How is the East Palace?"

Bai Yuechu and Nanny Luo looked at each other, and Bai Yuechu reported carefully.

"So far, there has been no news of any master being pregnant."

"Is there something wrong with the prince's health? Why don't we ask the imperial physician to examine him? Let's ask the imperial physician Wang. He has the most contact with the princess, and it just so happens that he didn't go with the princess when she returned to her fiefdom. Let him examine the prince carefully."

Bai Yuechu nodded respectfully: "Yes, Madam, Doctor Wang often accompanies the princess back to her fiefdom, and I believe they often discuss medical skills. He is indeed the most suitable candidate."

When Doctor Wang saw Bai Yuechu appear, he hurriedly bowed respectfully.

"Aunt Bai."

"Doctor Wang, I have received the order from Queen Feng, asking you to check the pulse of the Crown Prince."

Doctor Wang was shocked: "Taking the pulse? I'm afraid it's more than that. Sigh, it's really not easy to work in the palace."

Unfortunately, he was delayed by family matters this time and was unable to follow Princess Yongkang back to his fiefdom, but this was a good thing for his colleagues.

Thinking of those days of eating delicious food and drinking spicy drinks, Doctor Wang felt bitter.

East Palace

The Crown Prince sat expressionlessly as Imperial Physician Wang carefully felt his pulse.

Bai Yuechu carefully instructed: "Doctor Wang, you must take the prince's pulse carefully. The queen is waiting for a reply."

Doctor Wang raised his hand and wiped the sweat off his forehead: "Yes, I understand."

It was supposed to take only a moment, but Doctor Wang took a quarter of an hour.

"Your Highness, Auntie, Your Highness is in good health."

Bai Yuechu asked suspiciously: "Are you sure? Then why have you been here for so many years..."

Some things don't need to be explained too clearly. Doctor Wang is also a smart man, so he naturally understood the meaning of Bai Yuechu's words.

"I have taken the prince's pulse and confirmed that there is nothing wrong with his health."

Bai Yuechu asked anxiously, "Then why is there no good news for such a long time?"

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince also looked indifferently at Doctor Wang, who spoke under pressure.

"I don't know either. Perhaps it's not the right time for the child."

After hearing this, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince became numb.

"Aunt, please don't make things difficult for Doctor Wang. Doctor Wang has a good relationship with my sister, and he won't lie." He believed in his sister unconditionally.

Doctor Wang sighed inwardly: Fortunately, he has a good relationship with Princess Yongkang, otherwise he would be held accountable.

After leaving the Eastern Palace, Doctor Wang clearly felt a lot more relaxed both physically and mentally.

After listening to Bai Yuechu's report, the queen frowned.

"Did Doctor Wang really say that?"

"Yes, His Royal Highness is indeed in good health."

The queen began to get more anxious: "Why haven't those women reported pregnancy yet?"

She is already the imperial grandmother, when will she be able to become the imperial grandmother?

"Perhaps it is really the fate of the child that has not yet come." She could only quote Doctor Wang's words.

After all, who can tell what fate is? Just like the princess and her husband Jiang, it was beyond anyone's expectations.

Nanny Luo was afraid that the Queen would be too worried, so she quickly spoke to comfort her.

"Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was pregnant before, so His Royal Highness should be fine."

The Queen's eyes lit up: "Yes, maybe it's really fate that we will meet in the future."

Shen Jiarou didn't expect that she would receive a letter from Doctor Wang, and it was handwritten.

Jiang Ruofan saw her serious expression and was very confused: "Princess, what's wrong?"

"Nothing, I'm just curious why he would write to me."

Although they have known each other for many years, they have never exchanged letters.

"Princess, why don't you read the letter first."

"you are right."

Shen Jiarou read the letters one by one and finally fell silent.

"But the letter is serious?"

Shen Jiarou glanced outside the door and whispered in his ear.

"Doctor Wang said that the Queen Mother asked him to check the prince's pulse, and he was accompanied by Aunt Bai."

"Take the pulse? Maybe a safe pulse?"

Shen Jiarou shook her head: "If it was just a safe pulse, why would Aunt Bai follow it in person? It doesn't make sense no matter how you think about it."

Jiang Ruofan pondered, thinking about the fact that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had been married for many years without having any children, and he had some guesses in his mind.

Although he and the princess had been married for many years, they had no children before. That was because the princess was too young and they had not consummated their marriage.

After the princess came of age, it was natural for them to be together, and the princess soon became pregnant.
