I've waited for you for a thousand years, and I've lived this life just to meet you

Su Yu'er pondered for a moment and then said, "Before you leave, don't tell anyone about this to avoid any complications. Once everything is arranged, someone will notify you."

Noblewoman Zhan bowed again and expressed her gratitude. "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your great kindness. I will definitely remember this in my heart."

After they reached a consensus, Concubine Zhan stayed for a while and then left Fengluan Palace happily.

Su Yu'er sat on the throne, quietly looking at the blue sky and white clouds outside the palace, muttering: "I also want to live a free and easy life, but I have no choice at the moment!"

At this time, Xiao Moxuan, dressed in a red robe, hurried into the hall.

"Greetings, Empress Dowager." After paying his respects, he sat down on the chair and asked anxiously, "Imperial Sister-in-law, when can I take the Marrow Cleansing Pill?" After saying that, he looked at Su Yu'er with anticipation.

"Look at you! Why are you so anxious?" Su Yuer teased with a smile.

"How can I not be anxious, sister-in-law? They are all one step ahead of me. My martial arts are among the best in the Jinsheng Dynasty, and I don't want to be surpassed by anyone." Xiao Moxuan said anxiously.

"Ninth Prince, you must think carefully. Once you embark on the path of cultivation, there will be no turning back." Su Yu'er said while knocking.

"I never regret it." Xiao Moxuan said firmly. Su Yu'er waved her hand, and a porcelain bottle appeared in front of him.

Xiao Moxuan gently opened the bottle cap, and a marrow cleansing pill emitting a strong medicinal fragrance appeared in front of him.

"Ninth Prince, after you take this marrow cleansing pill, the process may be a little painful, but as long as you can endure it, you will be reborn." Su Yu'er said softly.

"Imperial sister-in-law, I understand. I will go back home now. Also, the day after tomorrow, the master of the Medicine King Valley will go to Fengyu Pavilion. Imperial sister-in-law, don't forget." After Xiao Moxuan gave a few instructions, he turned around and left Fengluan Palace.

After a moment of chaos, it finally calmed down.

Su Yu'er was about to go to Yongshou Palace to pay her respects to Empress Dowager Wei. Just as she was about to leave Fengluan Palace, Xiao Mohan sent someone to tell her to have lunch in the imperial study.

Yongshou Palace

Su Yuer stepped forward and bowed to Queen Dowager Wei and greeted her.

When Queen Mother Wei saw this, she quickly said, "No need to be so formal, Yu'er, come and sit next to me."

"Yes, mother." Su Yu'er walked to the side of Queen Dowager Wei and sat down.

"Yu'er, you don't have to be restrained here in the future." Queen Mother Wei said in a kind voice.

"This is what a daughter-in-law should do. She shouldn't feel constrained."

Queen Mother Wei said gently, "Well, it's up to you."

The maidservant beside her brought tea up and said, "Your Highness, please have some tea."

Su Yu'er took it and took a sip, saying, "Mother, did you have a good rest last night?"

Empress Dowager Wei waved to Matron Liu, who bowed respectfully and then slowly retreated with the palace maids.

"I haven't slept well all night. Seeing the splendor of Hanyu Academy, the emperor and your devotion to the Jinsheng Dynasty, and the emperor's special favoritism towards you, I finally understand everything."

"Mother, don't think too much. With the emperor here, you can be at ease and don't have to worry." Su Yu'er comforted softly.

Queen Mother Wei looked at Su Yu'er with eyes full of doting, reached out and gently held her hand, then covered her palm with hers and said softly: "After last night's trip to Hanyu Academy, I am completely relieved.

As the Empress Dowager, I know that most people in the royal family are heartless. But the Emperor's heart and eyes are filled with you, and Yu'er, you are also devoted to the Emperor.

This kind of sincerity is rare and precious in the royal family.

Yu'er, I leave the emperor to you. You will take good care of him for the rest of my life."

After hearing the Queen Mother's words, Su Yu'er's eyes reddened with tears. She said with a choked voice, "Don't worry, Mother. I will do my utmost to protect the Emperor and stay by his side, never leaving him."

Queen Mother Wei nodded slightly, a relieved smile on her face. "With your words, I am relieved. In the future, you must be careful in everything you do in the palace. Don't let your guard down and don't give those with ulterior motives any opportunity to take advantage of you."

Su Yu'er replied solemnly: "I, your daughter-in-law, will remember your mother's teachings."

Queen Mother Wei continued, "The eldest princess will host a flower viewing banquet in her garden outside the city the day after tomorrow. You and the eldest princess are quite familiar with it.

Her garden outside the city is well maintained, and you can go and enjoy it when you get there."

"Since the eldest princess has invited you, mother, why don't you go?"

"I don't like the hustle and bustle, so I won't go." Queen Mother Wei said softly.

"Yes." Su Yuer responded.

Queen Mother Wei patted Su Yu'er's hand gently and said, "Alright, you should go back and rest early. Don't overwork yourself."

Su Yuer stood up, bowed, and left.

At this time, Nanny Liu had returned to the side of the Queen Mother Wei. She whispered, "The Queen Mother specially asked the Royal Concubine to attend the Princess's flower viewing banquet. Did she want the Royal Concubine to prepare in advance?

This servant feels that the Imperial Concubine should be more than capable of handling such a banquet."

"I'm not worried that she can't handle it. They're just some wives of officials and noble ladies. What's there to worry about?

After all, the Imperial Concubine is now the most favored. Those around the Emperor are determined to push Lu Yuxuan to the throne."

"The Prime Minister is a man of deep thoughts and ambitions. Now that Concubine Li has been demoted to Concubine Li, things are even more difficult. Fortunately, the Emperor and the Empress Dowager are of one mind."

"You." Empress Dowager Wei pondered for a moment, then said, "I need to tell the Emperor that it's time to promote Concubine Yu to Empress."

"Yes, the servant understands."

Fengluan Palace

Upon returning, Su Yu'er lazily lay on the couch, with Cuihong standing by her side. She asked in confusion, "Your Majesty, what do you think the Queen Mother meant by this? Why did she tell you in advance?"

“In late summer and early autumn, the chrysanthemums are in full bloom, which is also a beautiful sight.

All the prominent officials and noble ladies in the capital will be present at this flower viewing banquet." Su Yu'er closed her beautiful eyes and lay there, "The Queen Mother said that I should enjoy the flowers properly, most likely to remind me.

This flower viewing banquet is held in the Princess's garden outside the city. With the Queen Mother's reminder, I should also be more careful."

When Cuihong heard this, she immediately said, "Your Majesty, do you think someone wants to harm you?"

Su Yu'er said calmly: "I am now favored by the emperor and have disrupted the plans of those people.

Whoever they are, if they want to fight me, I will take them on."

At this time, the eunuch Guan Jun walked in, "Your Highness."

"What's the matter?"

Guan Jun stepped forward and presented an invitation, "Your Highness, this is an invitation sent by the Princess."

Su Yuer took it, opened it and saw that she was invited to a banquet on September 7th, which was three days later.

After Guan Jun left, Su Yu'er threw the invitation aside. There was nothing to worry about at the moment.

After taking a nap for a while, it was already time for lunch, so Su Yuer went to the imperial study.

Royal study room.

When Su Yu'er walked into the hall, Xiao Mohan was already sitting at the dining table waiting. She saw the table filled with delicious food and said happily, "Husband, there are so many delicious foods."

Xiao Mohan waved his hand to signal them to leave. De'an, who was standing next to him, took all the palace servants in the hall and left.

"Madam, please sit down and take a look at these dishes to see if they suit your taste." Xiao Mohan reached out and pulled her to sit beside him.

"It's delicious. They're all my favorites." Su Yuer sat down next to him, picked up her chopsticks and started eating.

While eating, Xiao Mohan thought about what Queen Mother Wei had talked to him about.

He held the chopsticks and served Su Yu'er the food while saying, "I just went to Yongshou Palace. My mother sent someone to talk to me about something. Madam, do you know why my mother wanted to talk to me?"

Su Yuer shook her head and said, "I don't know." She continued to eat with her head down.

"My mother wants to promote you to queen."

Su Yu'er suddenly raised her head, holding the braised pork in her mouth, and looked at Xiao Mohan in surprise. It had only been this morning, and her seniority had risen so high?

Xiao Mohan looked at her cute face, raised the corners of his mouth, and said gently: "Madam, can you eat the meat first, otherwise you will choke."

Su Yuer quickly chewed a few mouthfuls of the braised pork, and suddenly, she vomited with a nauseous sound.

She picked up the teacup and took a big gulp, then used her hand to smooth her stomach.

Xiao Mohan looked at her nervously, rubbing his hands back and forth on her back, and said at a loss: "Madam, are you choking?"

Su Yu'er shook her head and after a while, the nausea in her stomach slowly dissipated. "It's okay, maybe I was scared by my mother."

"Ugh..." The nausea in her stomach came back again. She quickly ran to the mouthwash basin and vomited out everything she had eaten.

"I feel better now!" Su Yuer gently rubbed the tears from her eyes with her hands.

"De'an, hurry up and call the imperial physician for me." Xiao Mohan quickly came to her side and held her in his arms. Seeing her distressed look, her eyes misty, he cried out in distress.

"I obey your command." De'an hurriedly sent someone to the Imperial Hospital to find Xia Yu.

Soon, Xia Yu came to the imperial study room with a medicine box in one hand. He thought the emperor was ill, but when he looked up, he saw Xiao Mohan sitting at the dining table with the pale Concubine Yu in his arms.

"Your humble servant pays homage to His Majesty." Xia Yu bowed.

"Doctor Xia, please take Concubine Yu's pulse quickly." Xiao Mohan said anxiously.

Doctor Xia walked quickly to the table and Su Yuer extended her hand to him.

Doctor Xia placed his hand on Su Yuer's wrist seriously, and with a breath, his expression gradually became excited.

At this moment, Xiao Mohan stared intently at Doctor Xia's hand. "What on earth is going on?"

"Congratulations, Your Majesty. The Imperial Concubine is pregnant and it has been a month..." Before Doctor Xia could finish his words, he was pushed aside by Xiao Mohan.

Doctor Xia sat down on the ground with a thud. At this moment, he was a little confused.

"Madam, I'm pregnant!" Xiao Mohan excitedly picked up Su Yu'er and spun around.

Su Yu'er hugged Xiao Mohan's neck tightly and looked at him with watery eyes.

"I'm very happy, ma'am." This is the fruit of his love with Su Yuer.

"I'm happy too, husband."

Xiao Mohan carried her all the way back to Fengluan Palace. He was so excited that he couldn't sleep all night, and Su Yu'er also couldn't sleep well.

The news that Su Yuer was pregnant spread throughout the palace in an instant.
