The Royal Family's Orphan is on the Rise

Shen Jiarou poured him a glass of water: "Father, drink some water."

Emperor Shun of Yuan Dynasty took it and drank it, and felt his throat felt much better.

"Father has said almost everything to you. You are tired too. You should go back today."

Shen Jiarou looked at Emperor Shun of Yuan Dynasty with some concern, and Li Jiang spoke to her respectfully.

"Don't worry, Princess. I have an old servant here."

Shen Jiarou nodded slightly: "Father, I will go see the Empress Dowager and the Queen Mother first."

"Go."

Watching her bloated pregnant figure leave, Emperor Shun of Yuan Dynasty suddenly coughed a few times, which frightened Li Jiang again.

"Your Majesty, please go slower and be careful of the dragon's body."

Shen Jiarou, who was standing outside the imperial study, heard the coughing and felt that her father might pass away at any time, which made her feel uncomfortable.

Zhang Zirou and Zheng Shutong helped her to the ceremonial guard and sat her down, then went to Fushou Palace.

The Empress Dowager has been worried about Emperor Yuan Shun's health recently, and her appetite has decreased a lot.

"Your Majesty, Princess Yongkang requests an audience."

Upon hearing this, the Queen Mother was surprised.

"Yi Yi is here? Announce quickly."

She looked at Aunt Zhen and said, "This child, his belly is so big, it's too tiring to go in and out, I don't know if it will have any effect on his body."

Aunt Zhen quickly comforted her: "Queen Dowager, don't worry, the princess knows her limits."

"You're right. I might be too concerned."

"Princess Yongkang is invited to enter the palace."

Zhang Zirou and Zheng Shutong carefully helped her into the main hall of Fushou Palace. The empress dowager was sitting on the phoenix chair with a loving face.

"Here comes Yi Yi."

"Yi Yi has met the Imperial Grandmother."

"Good child, get up quickly. Don't be so polite when you are pregnant. Zirou Shutong, help your princess sit down."

The two bowed respectfully: "Yes, Queen Mother."

Looking at her now round belly, the Queen Mother's eyes were full of love and pampering.

"I'm afraid this pregnancy will be more difficult than the previous two."

Shen Jiarou smiled gently and said, "Yes, a little, but it's okay once you get used to it."

"That's good. By the way, are you going to visit your mother later?"

"It's been a while since I last paid my respects to my mother. It's time to pay my respects to her."

The Queen Mother nodded in agreement: "That's right, but you are not feeling well right now, so forget it. Let Nanny Gui go and invite the Queen over."

Shen Jiarou was stunned: "Will this be bad?"

The Queen Mother smiled lovingly and said, "It's alright, Madam Gui, go and tell her that I asked the Queen to come."

"Yes, Queen Mother, I will take my leave."

The grandparents and grandchildren watched her leave, and the empress dowager turned her gaze to Shen Jiarou.

"The time saved is just right for us to have a good chat."

Aunt Zhen smiled gently at the side, and she also agreed with the Queen Mother's move.

“Are the children studying seriously in class?”

"Very serious, the Prince Consort and the teacher taught very well."

"That's good. When your baby is born, the mansion will be more lively."

Aunt Zhen interrupted at the right time and said, "The Queen Mother is right. From now on, there will be three more children coming to see you and pay their respects to you."

The Queen Mother was delighted to hear this: "That's right. By the way, Yi Yi, why did you suddenly come to the palace today?"

"Look at Father."

"How is your father's health?"

Shen Jiarou shook her head slightly: "He coughed too much, and... Yi Yi was very worried when he heard it."

The Queen Mother heard what she didn't say, and was afraid that she was coughing up blood.

"Hey, I'm afraid the emperor this time...did he say anything to you?"

Aunt Zhen also looked at her, and Shen Jiarou stroked her pregnant belly.

"My father said that he didn't know if he could live to see the birth of the three children, so he asked me to get along well with my brothers and sisters, and visit my grandmother, mother, Concubine Shun, and my fourteenth brother often in the future."

The Queen Mother was very sad when she heard this, fearing that in the near future, she would have to bury the young before her.

East Palace

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's secret agent reported to him that Emperor Yuan Shun had summoned Shen Jiarou.

"You said the princess stayed for a long time?"

"Yes, Your Highness. I heard that when the princess came out, her eyes were still red. She must have been crying."

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince lowered his eyes and thought, "My father's health is getting worse and worse. My sister and my father have had a deep relationship since childhood. It is natural for her to be sad. Where did the princess go afterwards?"

"Fushou Palace, Aunt Gui went to Fengyi Palace."

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was guessing in his heart what the Royal Grandmother's intention was, and Luo Cheng was also guessing beside him.

"Prince, you said that the princess usually visits the Queen Mother and will also visit the Empress. Could it be that Nanny Gui is asking the Empress to go to Fushou Palace?"

The words awakened the dreamer, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince nodded.

"Yes, my sister is pregnant with triplets, which is rare. The Royal Grandmother would not want her to suffer so much. This makes sense. Besides, the two of them can spend more time together."

Luo Cheng felt that his master's analysis was absolutely correct.

In Fushou Palace, the Queen, wearing a purple phoenix robe, saluted the Queen Mother.

"I pay my respects to the Queen Mother."

"The queen is here, please sit down."

"Thank you, mother, for the seat."

Looking at her pregnant daughter, the queen sat down and asked with concern.

"How was your pregnancy, princess? I hope the babies didn't give you too much trouble."

Shen Jiarou shook her head: "Mother, this pregnancy is fine."

The queen smiled when she heard this: "Maybe she feels sorry for your hard work. It seems that these three children should be worry-free. By the way, Heng Ge'er hasn't gotten into trouble recently, right?"

"How could that be possible? The kitchen was blown up yesterday, scaring Sister Qin and the others to scream. I don't know what happened, but my son and I are not like this. Even if it's inherited from the previous generation, I think my parents-in-law have good personalities. I'm starting to wonder if they're the wrong child."

The queen covered her mouth and smiled, "It's impossible to have the wrong child. Aren't Heng'er and you two a combination of the two of you? But his personality is indeed a little too eccentric. Could it be that you two are too docile, so God sent someone to liven up the atmosphere?"

Shen Jiarou chuckled: "Mother, you are really good at joking. I think Heng Ge'er was sent by God to make my husband and I angry."

The Queen Mother smiled from ear to ear: "It's okay, it's okay. Maybe when his brothers and sisters are born, he will be like an older brother."

Shen Jiarou said helplessly: "This is the only way."

After leaving the palace and returning to the mansion, Jiang Ruofan took him back to the main courtyard, where a man in black tights was standing in the room.

Shen Jiarou looked at her husband with suspicion: "Who is he?"

"Father's people."

Shen Jiarou remembered what her father had said and immediately understood the purpose of this person's visit.

"Husband, please go out first."

"Yes, Princess. We will be guarding outside the courtyard. Call me if you need anything."

Shen Jiarou nodded slightly and watched him leave. Then she turned to look at the man in tight clothes. She walked straight to the couch and sat down.

"Tell me, the purpose of this trip."

The man knelt on one knee and said, "I, Leng Ye, greet my master."

Hearing his name, Shen Jiarou was stunned for a moment, but she quickly reacted.

"What does Father mean?"

"Yes, I have another secret decree here."

He stood up and presented the secret decree to Shen Jiarou. After she read it carefully, she was indeed shocked. She did not expect that this was what her father meant.
