The Royal Family's Orphan is on the Rise

Sheng Wan took Ruan Qingling's loving reply and walked quickly to Youcaoyuan.

Since the Prince Consort's Mansion became the Jiang Mansion, the couple moved to Yilan at Shen Jiarou's request.

"Mother, father, there's a letter."

An elderly couple was taking care of the indoor flowers and plants, one was trimming the dead and rotten leaves, and the other was watering them.

"What's wrong, second son's wife?" The old lady Jiang who was speaking was holding a pair of large scissors in her hand.

"It's from the palace, a letter written by my mother's Aunt Ruan."

Upon hearing this, the old couple quickly put down what they were doing and read the letter. When they learned that they could go to the palace to visit her, both the mother-in-law and the daughter-in-law were very happy.

"Great, I can finally see my sister-in-law."

"Second daughter-in-law, be careful with your words and actions, that's the Queen."

Sheng Wan was stunned: "Yes, mother, my daughter-in-law said the wrong thing in a moment of excitement. I will be more careful in my words and actions in the future."

Old Madam Jiang nodded with satisfaction. She was very satisfied with this daughter-in-law. Although her family background, talent and appearance were not as good as those of Princess Yongkang, she was gentle and dignified, and thoughtful in her conduct. She had learned some of her elder sister-in-law's strengths.

"Second son's wife, go back and pack your things. We will take your sister to the palace tomorrow. Remember, you must dress modestly."

Sheng Wan bowed respectfully: "Yes, mother."

After breakfast the next morning, the three of them set out together from Jiang Mansion and headed for the palace gate.

Shen Jiarou had already arranged for Mu Siqi to wait for the three of them at the palace gate. When they arrived, Concubine Shun and Concubine De had just left Fengyi Palace.

Led by Mu Siqi, the three of them put on the veils that Shen Jiarou had specially prepared and went to the screen in front of the phoenix couch in the bedroom to pay their respects.

"Greetings to Her Majesty the Queen. May Her Majesty Feng An be with you."

Shen Jiarou coughed slightly, then was helped by Nan Qi to sit up and lean against the head of the bed.

"Without courtesy, I will give you a seat."

The three of them knelt down respectfully and bowed: "Thank you, Queen, for the seat."

Then he stood up and sat down with the help of Nami, Musiqi and Kaier, and Rezana brought three cups of freshly brewed tea.

"Madam Jiang, please have some tea!"

"Thank you Aunt Rezana."

"Mrs. Jiang, please have some tea!"

Sheng Wan took it with a polite smile: "Thank you, aunt."

Rezana walked towards Jiang Ruoyun again: "Mrs. Deng, please have some tea."

"Thank you, aunt."

Rezana smiled politely, nodded, and turned to leave. The queen said that it was not suitable to have too many people indoors as it would cause poor air circulation, so she left as soon as she finished her work.

Old Madam Jiang took a sip of tea and put it on the coffee table beside her. She raised her head slightly and looked at Shen Jiarou who was across the screen.

"Is the Queen feeling better from her cold?"

Shen Jiarou first covered her mouth with a handkerchief and coughed before responding to her.

"It keeps coming back, and it's not completely healed." Oh, she almost got depressed from pretending to be sick, but fortunately the babies in her belly are healthy, and there are fetal movements now.

"Is there nothing Doctor Wang can do?" She remembered that Doctor Wang always followed her.

Nan Qi sighed and explained, "Doctor Wang and Doctor Zhang have tried several times, but every time when the queen was about to get better, the weather would turn colder, and she would not be able to recover."

Ruan Qingling continued, "Yes, in our palace, especially in the bedroom and outside the bedroom, we use enough charcoal every day to keep it warm, just to make the queen get better soon and suffer less."

Shen Jiarou leaned against the head of the bed with a worried look on her face. Listening to the two people singing in unison, she was almost laughing to death in her heart. Over the past few months, they have honed their acting skills to perfection.

Jiang Ruoyun frowned: "That's really hard to deal with. The Queen's health was not this bad before. Have the imperial doctors examined her thoroughly?"

Shen Jiarou explained: "Maybe it will be better after this winter. After all, the conditions were quite difficult when I was in the army and fighting before, so I may have been affected to some extent."

In fact, there was nothing wrong with her health, she just said that for those who liked to pry.

Ji Chenyu didn't say anything when he learned that Shen Jiarou had summoned the Jiang family. However, there were also concubines who came to stir up trouble, which made him very annoyed. As a result, he almost never entered the harem except to visit Shen Jiarou.

The concubines in the harem, who finally had some married life, were now disliked by Ji Chenyu, and he took out all his anger on the concubine who was stirring up trouble.

Ji Chenyu and Shen Jiarou knew everything that happened in the harem. Shen Jiarou had always left the affairs of the harem to Ruan Qingling and Nan Qi, with Nami and the other three working together to handle them.

Even without her direct presence, the harem was running in order with everyone's cooperation and management. The Empress Dowager and the Grand Empress Dowager were satisfied with Shen Jiarou's methods.

Half a month passed in a flash, and Ji Chenyu suddenly discovered a problem. His Queen Rouer seemed to have gained some weight, her face became rounder, and she even had a kind of temperament that he couldn't describe. This problem bothered him for several days.

Shen Jiarou, who was really tired of pretending, decided to slowly stop pretending in the last ten days. She was almost depressed to death during this period. Fortunately, there were people visiting her every day, and although they didn't necessarily have good intentions, at least she wasn't so bored.

After dealing with military and national affairs, Ji Chenyu brought Jiang Ziwen, who had already entered the court, to Fengyi Palace.

When he saw Jiang Ziwen, Su Yude thought he was seeing things. He rubbed his eyes hard and found that he was indeed one of the people walking towards him. He was so happy.

"Your servant pays respect to His Majesty, and pays respect to County Lord Jiang."

Ji Chenyu gently raised his hand: "No need to be polite, is the Queen feeling better today?"

Thinking of his master's instructions, Su Yude spoke with a smile on his face.

"Your Majesty, the Queen is feeling better today and doesn't seem to be coughing as much anymore."

Hearing this, Ji Chenyu smiled gently and nodded, then looked at Jiang Ziwen.

"Ziwen, you must be missing your mother. Uncle Emperor will take you in to see her."

"Yes, Uncle Emperor."

The two of them followed Luo Cheng all the way to the bedroom.

When Shen Jiarou thought about the days when she pretended to be sick and the spying and poisoning she had avoided, her whole mood changed a little.

Nan Qi saw that she was bored and frowned, and made some helpless suggestions.

"My lady, if you find it boring, how about I read poems to you?"

Shen Jiarou shook her head: "Forget it, I'm tired of hearing it."

Although she has many ideas and things to pass the time, she gets tired of all the games after a while.

Upon hearing this, Nan Qi looked at Ruan Qingling, only to see her shaking her head helplessly. However, Nan Qi was worried about her health, and was also afraid that her boredom would affect the little masters in her belly.

After listening to the conversation inside, Ji Chenyu lowered his head and smiled, then he walked into the bedroom.

"Queen, look who I brought you?"

Ruan Qingling looked over curiously, but saw the elegant and handsome Jiang Ziwen.

"My lady, it's the county earl's son."

Shen Jiarou was stunned and looked carefully at the young man next to Ji Chenyu.
