The Legend of Zhen Huan: Rebirth of Ling Rong

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, after careful diagnosis and consideration of Your Majesty's unique physique, I have meticulously prepared the most suitable prescription for you to use to maintain pregnancy. This prescription can ensure the safety of the fetus in your womb. Please take it with confidence." Wei Lin said respectfully.

He paused briefly before continuing, "Furthermore, I have specially added the precious ingredient almond to this prescription. For pregnant women, consuming almonds in moderation not only effectively replenishes the body's essential nutrients, but almonds themselves also moisten the lungs and relieve coughs, greatly benefiting Your Majesty's health."

"Almonds... Yes, I remember that when Queen Chunyuan was pregnant for the first time, she also often used almonds. It is indeed true." The emperor was thinking in his heart.

"However, I must solemnly remind Your Majesty that although they are all almonds, they can be sweet or bitter. Pregnant women can only eat sweet almonds and must not touch bitter almonds, as the toxins they contain may cause great harm to the dragon fetus and even affect its growth and development. Therefore, Your Majesty must remember this!"

"Yes, thank you, Doctor. I will definitely keep it in mind."

Bao Que then escorted Wei Lin out, and the Emperor stayed in the Yikun Palace that night. He did not leave until the next morning during the court session.

The news of my pregnancy spread quickly to everyone, and they all came to congratulate me. I knew no one was sincere, so I handled it with ease, offering polite words.

The Queen also sent Jianqiu to deliver something, but it was just for show, and I was happy to accept it.

"Lingrong, we came specially to see you. I wonder how you are doing now? Are you feeling better?"

The person speaking, dressed in a lavender dress with flowing sleeves and an elegant demeanor, was none other than Mei Zhuang. Following closely behind her was an equally beautiful and graceful woman, naturally my sister Wan.

Hearing the voice, I quickly stood up to greet them, a look of delight on my face: "It's great that you two sisters can come to see me! Please come in. It's just that the maids in this yard are so ignorant. How come no one informed me in advance that you sisters were coming? I was not prepared at all." As I said that, I personally stepped forward and led the two of them into the house.

"Lingrong, it's been so long since we last met. Ever since you moved into Yikun Palace, it feels like we three sisters have been separated by thousands of miles. It's been ages since we've been able to sit down and talk quietly like we used to. Back then, we could talk about anything and everything, and we were so close."

Sister Mei nodded slightly, a gentle smile on her face as she said, "Lingrong, it's been so long since I've had the chance to get together with you. I've been so remiss and should have come to see you long ago. Today, I finally have some free time, so I couldn't wait to drag Huan'er along to see how you're doing."

I just gently held Sister Mei's hand, my eyes full of guilt. "Sister, what are you talking about? It's all Lingrong's fault for not being able to visit you two sisters often. These days, I've made you miss me. It's really Lingrong's fault. Sister, you took the trouble to come here to see me today. Lingrong is really touched and ashamed."

"Lingrong, we are sisters. There's no need to be so polite. It's rather awkward. Huan'er, don't you agree?"

"Sister Mei is absolutely right, Lingrong. We sisters should have come to visit you a long time ago. It's a pity that we haven't been in touch with each other for a long time. I was worried that you would be unhappy about this, so I came late." Zhen Huan said with a guilty look on her face, her eyes full of sincerity and concern.

I gently held their hands and replied softly, "Sisters, it's really too polite for you to talk like that! It's all my fault for not being able to get together and talk with you more often. I hope you won't blame me!"

As I said this, I lowered my head slightly, looking shy.

"Lingrong, we're so happy for you from the bottom of our hearts when we heard the good news about your pregnancy! Especially Sister Mei. As soon as she heard the news, she couldn't wait to drag me along to come visit you. She kept talking about it the whole way, looking forward to seeing you and your unborn baby soon."

"Sister, you really make Lingrong feel embarrassed. Originally, Lingrong should have visited the sisters first, but now you have troubled the sisters to make this trip yourself. This is all Lingrong's fault. I hope Sister will not blame Lingrong."

"How could that be? We are so happy that we can't blame you. We should visit each other more often in the future."

"Yes, of course I have to visit you often. I can't let my relationship with my sisters fade away."

I haven't told them what's on my mind. The fewer people who know, the better my chances of success. Now the Queen has her eyes fixed on us, waiting to find some fault.

"I haven't congratulated you yet, sister. I heard Yuyun is going to marry into Prince Guo's mansion?"

"Yes, she asked for this marriage herself. I just hope she won't regret it in the future."

After talking for a while, they each went back to their own bedrooms.

Because of Prince Guo's marriage, everyone in the palace was busy preparing for related matters. It was extremely lively for a while, and everyone was doing their own tasks in an orderly manner, for fear of making any mistakes.

The wedding day soon arrived and was held as scheduled. All the princes, ministers and their families came, and it was extremely lively.

Only after all the formalities were completed did Prince Guo return to the palace with his two concubines. It was a rare occasion for the Emperor to hold a banquet, so everyone was naturally overjoyed.

"Your Highness, which room are you going to sleep in tonight?" Finally, after everyone at the banquet had dispersed, A Jin hurried to ask the prince.

"Tonight, I am tired, so I will sleep in the study. You go and tell the two concubines to go to bed early." Prince Guo instructed A Jin beside him.

The emperor was reading a memorial in the imperial study when he heard Su Peisheng running in in a panic.

"What's wrong? What happened? You look so flustered."

"Your Majesty, something happened in Yikun Palace." Su Peisheng answered cautiously.

"But is there something wrong with Concubine Rong?" The emperor seemed to have guessed something.

"Your Majesty, the maid from Yikun Palace reported that Concubine Rong is feeling unwell today and seems to be having a miscarriage. Please go and take a look."

"How could this happen? Wasn't he fine yesterday?" the emperor asked in confusion.

"I don't know either. Your Majesty, would you please go and see?"

"I'll go see Concubine Rong and call the imperial physician over."

"Rong'er, what's going on? Is it a miscarriage? Don't worry, I'm here and nothing will happen to you or the baby."
