The stunning beauty of Qing Dynasty

Chapter 51 First Pregnancy

The Queen said to Qing Yin with a smile, "It has been quiet in this palace for a long time. If Imperial Concubine Yu is free, please come to Kunning Palace more often to chat with me, which will help relieve my boredom."

Since there was no hostility, Qingyin would not hesitate. She covered her mouth and chuckled, "Thank you for your appreciation, Your Majesty. If Your Majesty doesn't mind my talking too much, then I will have to bother you more."

Looking at Concubine Yu who was talking to her, the Queen smiled even more deeply. She was a smart person and she liked him.

Seeing the harmonious atmosphere between the Queen and Imperial Concubine, Concubine Ling felt uncomfortable as if ants were crawling on her heart. Was the Queen trying to win over Imperial Concubine Yu? No, she had to stop it.

Concubine Ling said, "I have long known that Sister Yu Guifei is a beauty. Today, I see that she is indeed so. No wonder Sister Yu is the only one who has received the emperor's favor. I am really envious."

Facing the malicious Concubine Ling, Qingyin's tone was much lighter, "I am indeed born beautiful, which makes Sister Ling envious. Unfortunately, this appearance is inherited from my parents, and it may be difficult for my sister to change it."

When these words came out, several concubines almost laughed out loud, and their faces turned red from trying to hold back their laughter. However, they did tacitly acknowledge that the new Imperial Concubine Yu was not someone to be trifled with. Well, they couldn't beat her with that face anyway, so they went back to bed.

The Queen smiled and said, "Ling Fei, you are really ridiculous. This appearance is destined by heaven. You and I are so old, and you are still talking about this..."

Concubine Ling, who was being attacked in the face, was first called ugly by Qingyin and then called old by the Queen. She was so angry that she almost cursed back. Feeling the mocking gazes from all around her and the pain of her nails digging into her flesh, she barely managed to control herself.

When the ceremony of paying respects was about to end, Concubine Ling almost fled in a panic.

Qingyin was a step slower and also left the stage.

During this period, the palace became much quieter because Xiaoyanzi was under house arrest.

Qingyin announced the news of her pregnancy this month, and Qianlong happily pardoned the people from two years of corvee labor. He also added fireworks in various Taoist temples to pray for Concubine Yu's unborn child. Seeing this, Qianlong's harem has become extremely obedient, except for the restless Concubine Ling, who Qingyin is confident that she can suppress under her control.

These days, Qingyin also likes to go to the Queen's Kunning Palace to talk. Although she can chat with Alyssa and others on weekdays, Alyssa and others are servants after all, and they have to take a lot of things into consideration. They can't talk to Qingyin as they please. It's no problem with the Queen. She is used to going in and out of Kunning Palace. Today, she changed into a cheongsam with a crescent white lotus pattern and rushed to Kunning Palace.

When they arrived at the gate of Kunning Palace, the older eunuch smiled and invited Concubine Yu in without even announcing her. The younger eunuch next to him was so shocked that he said, "Brother, why did they let Concubine Yu in directly? Didn't they wait for the Queen's order first?"

"You came late. You didn't know that Concubine Yu comes to see the Empress every day. And the Empress said before that there is no need to stop Concubine Yu. As servants, we just need to inform her in advance. Sometimes we have to be flexible and not be stubborn!" The taught eunuch nodded as if he understood.

In the palace, the queen changed into a lighter green cheongsam today. She was actually not that old, only in her thirties, but there were too many young girls in the palace, which made her look older. Today, she rarely wore that dark-colored dress, and she felt a few years younger.

Qingyin's eyes lit up, and she quickly grabbed Ulanara's hand, "Sister, you look so beautiful today. I am stunned by your beauty."

"You have such a sweet mouth. If you didn't come to me and say that every day, I really wouldn't dare to change into these clothes." The queen couldn't stop smiling at the sincere compliment from the beauty.

"Hey, you have to be careful while you're pregnant. The first three months of pregnancy is a critical period. You have to be careful with your movements."

Looking at the Queen who was trying hard to persuade her with experience, Qingyin sat leisurely on the chair prepared by the Queen.

"Sister, I'm dizzy from all the stories told by the imperial physician. You can't talk any more. Tell me what good things have happened recently."

The queen tapped Qingyin's forehead lightly, "You! You come to me just for gossip, right?" She has no biological sisters, but now she knows how good sisters are. Not to mention, she really can't stand a sister who loves to act like a spoiled child.

Looking at Qing Yin with bright eyes, the queen still obediently satisfied her thoughts, "Do you remember the Saiyan princess who came with you? She has become famous recently!"

"Huh? What's wrong with her? Isn't she participating in a martial arts competition to win a husband?" Qingyin thought of the bright and giggling princess.

Speaking of this, the Queen's tone was filled with the excitement of sharing gossip, "The Saiyan princess threw the ball to find a husband, but it had many twists and turns. When she first threw the ball, it was accidentally caught by a woman, so it didn't count. The second time, it fell directly into the arms of a scholar who was about to get married. The man told her the situation and explained it clearly. The third time, somehow, she fell into the river next to her and sank."

Qingyin opened her eyes wide with curiosity. She put down the snack in her hand and said, "This hydrangea is so light, how could it sink into the river? Who did the Saiyan princess choose with this hydrangea?"

"The Saiyan princess then said that the will of heaven said that the marriage proposal through the ball was too casual, and she had to return to Tibet to listen to her father's selection. That was the end of the matter."

Qingyin thought about it and felt that this was probably the Saiyan Princess' excuse. These three times were probably her ways to avoid marriage.

Qingyin was a little off. The first and second times, Saiya had his own people do it. The second time was really an accident. Thinking of that cold scholar, Saiya felt angry. Damn, she, a princess, hadn't said anything yet, but he, a scholar who hadn't passed the exam, had already refuted her. Did he think he was such a popular person? The more Saiya thought about it, the angrier she got. No! She had to beat him up before leaving the Qing Dynasty.

The news of Qingyin's pregnancy spread throughout the palace and the Shangshu Mansion. Since Qingyin was made a concubine, he found a good friend Lin Chenghe who he knew in the folk and asked him to prescribe a medicine that could show the symptoms. Lin Chenghe was someone he met by chance. He once went out of the palace to save him who was covered in blood on the trail, and they became friends because of this. Falcon knew that he was a good doctor, so he thought of him first when he was thinking of an excuse.

Lin Chenghe looked at Falcon suspiciously, "What do you want medicine that can pretend to be sick for?"

Falcon had a gloomy face and was about to walk out. "Don't worry about it. Do you have it or not? If not, I'll leave."

"Yes, yes, yes, come on, look at you, you left before I even finished talking, what a fool you are."

Lin Chenghe looked at his frustrated face, which was as ugly as his wife's death. An idea suddenly occurred to him, "Could something have happened to your sweetheart Ziwei?" Obviously, Lin Chenghe was only half right.

"Ziwei is not my sweetheart!" Falcon replied so quickly that Lin Chenghe was shocked and only then did he recall what he had just said.
