The Royal Family's Orphan is on the Rise

Nan Qi arrived at Anhe Palace. The empress dowager had been released from her acupuncture points and glared at Jiang Ziyi fiercely.

"Royal Grandmother, you can beat me or punish me if you want, but please stop being angry."

The Queen Mother turned her head away: "Hmph."

A palace maid reported at the door of the bedroom: "Your Highness, Aunt Nanqi from Fengyi Palace wants to see you."

Everyone was stunned.

Nan Qi was brought into the bedroom, where she felt extremely depressing.

"Your servant greets the Queen Mother. May the Queen Mother be well."

"No gift."

"I am here to see you on behalf of the Queen. The Queen is worried about your health and is afraid that she might pass on her illness to you, so she did not come in person. Please forgive me."

"I understand the Queen's intentions. Let her have a good rest. Then she and the Emperor can work hard to give me a big fat grandson. Then she and the Empress Dowager can live more comfortably in the future." Even if other people's children are filial for the sake of face and status, it is not as filial as the Empress Dowager. She is doing this for her own good.

Nan Qi didn't expect to be induced to give birth, and sighed helplessly in her heart.

"Yes, Queen Mother, I will definitely tell the Queen."

Before leaving, Nan Qi whispered something into the empress dowager's ear.

"Queen Mother, the late Queen's regrets and remorse will dissipate a lot."

The Queen Mother looked up at her in confusion. Nan Qi took a few steps back and bowed respectfully.

"I still have to go back to take care of the queen, so I'll take my leave now."

Seeing that she was about to leave, Jiang Ziyi spoke quickly.

"Aunt Nanqi, let me go with you to see our mother." I don't know if the brothers and sisters in our mother's belly are obedient. Pregnancy is hard enough, and with multiple babies, they must not make their mother suffer.

Nan Qi stopped and looked at her, and Jiang Ziyi looked at the Queen Mother.

"Grandmother, you are fine. Ziyi will go see the Queen Mother first and then come back to accompany you."

The Queen Mother waved her hand and said, "Go ahead."

"Thank you, Grandmother. Ziyi will take her leave."

The two left Anhe Palace, but the Queen Mother fell into deep thought over Nan Qi's words.

What exactly did Nan Qi mean by that sentence?

What does it mean that the late queen had less regret and self-blame?

She thought carefully about the late queen's regret and self-blame, and it seemed that it all came down to the issue of offspring. Was Nan Qi hinting at something to her?

Suddenly, she was also puzzled by Jiang Ziyi who hurriedly followed Nan Qi: Why did Ziyi leave in such a hurry? Was the Queen's illness serious? Didn't she say she was much better?

No, no, this was too weird. She put the two things together and suddenly had a bold guess.

When the Empress Dowager of Fushou Palace learned that her daughter-in-law had fainted from anger, she sighed helplessly.

"The Queen Mother is probably too anxious to bear it anymore."

Aunt Zhen sighed: "Grand Empress Dowager, from the perspective of the Empress Dowager, she is indeed very sad."

"You're right, but it's difficult for me. As the Grand Empress Dowager of Dalin and the only ancestor of the Ji family's royal family, I have to consider the overall situation."

Aunt Zhen also sighed: "If the Queen gave birth to a prince, this matter would be much easier to resolve."

"I hope so, but you see, they have been married for several months, and the emperor has stayed in Fengyi Palace for quite a while, but the queen, who is so fertile, still hasn't sent any good news. I am old, and I am afraid she won't live much longer. I really can't delay it, otherwise, after a hundred years, I will be ashamed to face my ancestors."

As noble as she is, she also has her own responsibilities.

Even though her daughter-in-law, grandson, granddaughter and granddaughter-in-law will eventually hate her, she has to be the bad guy and choose a suitable one for Dalin to adopt.

Jiang Ziyi came to the bedroom to visit Shen Jiarou. Seeing her rosy and radiant face, she felt less worried.

"Mother."

"What's wrong, Ziyi, are you worried?"

Thinking of the horrific scene in Anhe Palace, Jiang Ziyi sighed, and finally whispered in her ear to explain it clearly.

"That's what happened. You don't know, I was so scared at the time, and I did that in a hurry. I don't know if it was right or wrong."

Shen Jiarou felt distressed when she saw her daughter's troubled face and reached out to touch her cheek.

"Under the circumstances, Ziyi did the right thing. It's normal for your royal grandmother to be resentful of you right now. As the younger generation, we should be patient and wait for these few days to pass."

"Don't worry, mother. I will take good care of you. I will stay in Anhe Palace for the next few days. Since you love me so much, I'm sure you won't be really angry with me."

Looking at her sensible daughter, Shen Jiarou felt relieved and distressed at the same time.

"My dear daughter, my mother."

Jiang Ziyi smiled and said, "As long as the queen mother is happy, I will be happy."

Shen Jiarou reached out and touched her head gently and lovingly.

On the eve of the palace banquet, looking at the registration information in her hands and the portrait on the table, Shen Jiarou felt very uncomfortable. She felt distressed for her husband and helpless about what happened.

Nan Qi didn't expect that the Empress Dowager would directly put pressure on her master, which she felt was very unfair for her master.

"My Lady, how could the Empress Dowager treat you like this? Isn't this just using filial piety to pressure you?"

Although Ruan Qingling understood the situation of the Empress Dowager, she also felt sad for her master. Her master had always treated her Royal Grandmother wholeheartedly, so she was trying to steal her master's heart.

Shen Jiarou shed two silent tears and sighed in her heart, thinking that the person closest to her had finally come to this point.

Jiang Huajin, who was standing outside the bedroom door, ran in angrily: "Mother, I will never like my great-grandmother again. She only knows how to bully you."

"Jin'er, be careful with your words."

Nami couldn't help but reply: "That's right, whoever gave birth to the child will feel sorry for it."

Ruan Qingling scolded, "Shut up, Nami, you think it's not chaotic enough."

Nami turned her head away angrily, letting the tears flow down her cheeks.

Ji Chenyu didn't know that his beloved woman was being hurt by the person he was closest to and respected the most.

On the day of the palace banquet, the palace was decorated with lights and colors everywhere. Nan Qi was so angry that she stuffed Shen Jiarou's head with a lot of tiaras.

Looking at her hair full of pearls and jade, Shen Jiarou sighed helplessly.

"Nanqi, are you doing too much? I don't feel like I'm going to a palace banquet, but rather a beauty contest."

Nan Qi looked at the results of his hard work and nodded with satisfaction.

"Your Highness, you are the queen, so you should be more beautiful than any other beauties. Besides, this is quite dignified and elegant."

After Nan Qi finished speaking, she did not forget to look at Ruan Qingling. Receiving her gaze, Ruan Qingling also smiled and persuaded her.

"My queen, Nanqi is right. You have been a daughter of a rich family since childhood. Even though you are now the mother of a country, it is more suitable for you to be more elegant and dignified."

After being brainwashed by the two, Shen Jiarou decided not to get entangled with them.

Mu Siqi came to Shen Jiarou with the work that he was satisfied with.

"My lady, do you think it looks good?"

Shen Jiarou looked up and saw that the hand warmer in Mu Siqi's hand had a bead curtain made entirely of small pearls and gold threads, which amazed her.
