Comprehensive film and television: Make trouble before lying down

Back at Xianfu Palace, Shen Meizhuang leaned on the coffee table. New Year's Eve was approaching, and her pregnancy could only be kept secret until New Year's Eve at the latest.

If she was the only one pregnant in the harem, the queen would focus all her attention on her, and she would have to think of a way.

However, the fact of pregnancy can be concealed from anyone except Jingpin. Otherwise, once it is exposed, she will be estranged from her.

Thinking of this, Shen Meizhuang took Caiyue to the main hall. As soon as they entered the main hall, she saw Jingpin put down the scissors in her hand and walked towards her.

Jingpin greeted her warmly: "Sister, you are here. Come in and sit down."

"Greetings to Sister Jingpin," Shen Meizhuang performed a bun-lifting ceremony and then followed Jingpin to the table.

Jingpin: "I didn't know my sister was coming. Look how messy I am." She said this feeling a little embarrassed.

There were several vases and cut flower branches in the room. It seemed that before she came, Jingpin was cutting flowers and arranging them in pots.

Shen Meizhuang: "These flowers are so beautifully cut," she said as she walked to a pot of plum blossoms in a vase and gently stroked the petals with her hand.

Jingpin: "Right now, the flowers in the Yimei Garden have just bloomed. They are very beautiful. I couldn't help but pick some for you. I'm sorry to have embarrassed you, sister."

"No way! No way! I don't know these. I still need to learn more from sister Jingpin! Please don't find me annoying when the time comes." Shen Meizhuang said as she picked up the unpruned plum branch next to her and handed it to Jingpin.

Shen Meizhuang: "I came here today because I want to ask you something."

Jingpin looked up and said, "What is it? Just tell me, sister. If I can do it, I will not refuse."

Shen Meizhuang: "Hey! It's nothing serious. I just want to find some makeup looks, but I'm afraid there might be taboos, so I want to ask some old people in the palace."

Jingpin smiled and said, "What's the big deal? This is easy. I know a few and I'll find them for you later."

Shen Meizhuang: "I am not satisfied with my sister, but I have something to ask of you."

Jingpin's face darkened. She never liked to meddle in the palace's affairs, but since this incident happened in her palace, she felt a little embarrassed. "Speak, sister!"

Shen Meizhuang leaned closer and whispered in her ear, "Sister is a month pregnant, but she doesn't want to reveal it so soon."

Jingpin was shocked, then smiled: "Are you serious?"

Shen Meizhuang: "Of course I wouldn't dare lie to you, sister. I've already asked the imperial physician to examine it."

Jingpin ordered the maid beside her: "Quickly change a cup of water for Ning Guiren. You are pregnant, so you must not drink tea."

After saying that, he turned around and said to Shen Meizhuang, "That's good too. Having a child will be a support in the palace."

Jingpin continued, "If you are worried about the issue of raising the child, with your current favor, I believe that once the dragon fetus is born, you will be promoted to the position of concubine. There is no need to worry!"

Shen Meizhuang: "Since I have received your kindness, I wonder if you would like to hear how I can more easily conceive a child."

Jingpin smiled helplessly: "My elder sister was injured in her early years. Although she has recovered after years of recuperation, she is still not as young as the new concubines. I am afraid it will be difficult for her to have children."

Shen Meizhuang: "Since Sister is fine, then what we need is an opportunity. The method I mentioned is not a folk remedy, but just a little trick for serving the emperor in bed. Why don't you give it a try? Just in case?"

Jingpin was finally moved by what she heard. She had no one to talk to in the palace, and no one knew better than her how much she wanted to have a child.

But she didn't know if she could afford the price of accepting other people's benefits for nothing. But if she could really get pregnant, she would accept it no matter what the price!

"Sister, tell me, if I really am pregnant with a dragon fetus, I will definitely be grateful."

Shen Meizhuang lowered her head shyly. It was quite embarrassing to talk openly with others about calculating the ovulation date and sleeping positions. However, if someone else in the palace was pregnant, her goal would be smaller.

Not only did she keep her eyes on Jingpin, but she also thought about it, organized her words, and whispered the method in Jingpin's ear.

As she spoke, Jingpin's ears turned red and she lowered her head shyly.

Jingpin's expression was indescribable: "Sister, really... does this method really work?"

Shen Meizhuang nodded and said, "Many people have tried it. It was secretly taught by my mother before I left home. If you still hold out a glimmer of hope, you can try it together with the pregnancy-maintaining medicine."

Jingpin: "No matter what, I will accept your kindness."

Jingpin's face was full of excitement. She put down the scissors in her hand and asked the maid to bring paper and pen to list the things to pay attention to when sleeping with the emperor.

Before Shen Meizhuang left, he ordered someone to go to the Imperial Hospital and get a prescription for pregnancy-maintaining medicine, as well as the prescriptions for several old palace officials he had just promised.

The nanny arrived very quickly. After greeting her, Shen Meizhuang said directly, "I called you here today to ask if any of you can do the Fallen Plum Blossom Makeup, the Pretty Pear Makeup, or the Pearl Makeup."

Jingpin was curious: "Anyone with a little skill can do these makeups, why did you only seek out the old people in the palace?"

Shen Meizhuang: "Old people know more and are less likely to make mistakes. Besides, my sister is not looking for it just for herself."

Jingpin nodded gently: "Sister, you are very thoughtful."

Among the maids, there was one who really knew how to do it. Shen Meizhuang gave that person fifty taels of silver and let Caixing and Caiyue go to learn from her.

From then on, the aroma of medicine began to waft through the Xianfu Palace, and even the people in the Jingren Palace paid attention to it. They thought it was Shen Meiyu, but after much inquiry, they found out that it was actually Concubine Jing who had started taking the pregnancy-maintaining medicine again.

Besides Concubine Qi, who in the palace didn't want to have another son or daughter? Most of them were just watching for fun! They hadn't gotten pregnant in years, but how come they got pregnant just by taking the medicine? If that was true, they'd drink it too!

Upon hearing the news, the one who reacted the most was Concubine Hua, who had been taking medicine frequently and had the imperial physician prescribe medicine for her regular conditioning.

Upon hearing this, Concubine Jing became worried again. She thought she had found some good prescription and used her connections in the palace to inquire about it without hesitation. However, she was greatly disappointed. The prescription was just an ordinary prescription written by the Imperial Hospital.

Hua Fei was furious, and Qi Fei was a blatant joke. When paying her respects, she started to mock Jing Fei in front of her, "How old are you? You still think you are a new concubine! You are even using drugs. You have no shame."

She felt a little embarrassed, but no matter whether there was hope or not, she still wanted to give it a try.

In this way, every time the emperor went to Xianfu Palace to visit Shen Meiyu, she would push the person to Jingpin. Although Jingpin got the benefits, she would not forget Shen Meiyu. She often asked people to divide a part of the rewards sent by the emperor and send it to Changxi Hall. In this way, New Year's Eve was almost here in a blink of an eye.
