The Legend of Zhen Huan: Rebirth of Ling Rong

"Don't worry, Your Majesty. The prince will definitely come back safely." I tried my best to comfort the emperor.

In his previous life, Prince Guo fell into the Yellow River, but he eventually returned safely. It happened to be the days when his sister returned to the palace, so they missed each other.

"Then I will go back to the Yangxin Palace first and come to see you when I have time. Your condition is getting worse and your due date is getting closer, so you must be careful in everything." The emperor warned worriedly.

"Yes, I will be careful, Your Majesty, don't worry." I responded obediently.

Not long after the emperor left, Baojuan ran over to me excitedly and said, "My lady, I just heard that Madam Zhen will be entering the palace today. Concubine Wan is so happy that she got up early in the morning and asked Liuzhu and the others to prepare."

Hearing this news, I couldn't help but feel a surge of joy. Mrs. Zhen came to the palace today to accompany my sister during her delivery. Thinking of my sister being reunited with her family, I'm sincerely happy for her.

Time flies, and now I am pregnant and about to welcome a new life. It feels like a dream to finally have a child of my own to raise by my side.

"My lady, are you thinking about something?" Baojuan asked softly when she saw me in a daze.

I came back to my senses, smiled and said, "Nothing, I just felt that time passed by so quickly."

"That's right. The young lady and Concubine Wan have both become pregnant. Now Concubine Wan is about to give birth, and the young lady's child will be born in a month from now. This is really a happy event." Baojuan could not hide her joy.

"Baojuan, don't show your joy or anger on your face. You should be more careful when you are outside. Tell Juqing and the other kids not to let anyone catch them doing anything wrong." I advised Baojuan carefully.

"Yes, I am happy. My mistress often said this, and I remember it all."

"It's good that you remember it. I'm afraid you'll forget everything when you get happy."

"Young lady, you should take a break. Doing too much needlework is straining your eyes." Baojuan looked at the cloth in my hand, sighed softly, and advised: "Don't overwork yourself. You can leave these things to the embroiderers. Why do you have to do it yourself?"

I smiled and replied gently, "It's okay. I just want to do something for the child myself. Children grow up quickly and their clothes won't fit them soon." I lowered my head and continued the needlework in my hands, my eyes focused and serious.

After a while, I finally finished the clothes in my hand, put down the needle and thread in my hand, and stretched my body gently.

Baojuan came over with a cup of tea, handed it to me and said, "My lady, have a cup of tea and take a rest first."

I took the teacup, took a sip, and then said to Baojuan, "Later, you will personally take this dress to Cunju Hall and give it to Sister Mei. Please ask her to accept it."

Baojuan nodded, indicating that she understood. I added, "Remember to deliver it yourself, and don't let anyone else handle it. That way I can be more assured."

Baojuan responded, "Yes, my lady, don't worry, I will be careful and cautious." After that, she picked up the new clothes, folded them carefully, and left.

I watched Baojuan leave, and a warm feeling welled up in my heart. Baojuan has always been by my side, working hard and doing her duty. I have entrusted many things to her.

"My lady, the lady is here." Liuzhu ran into the house happily and told them the good news.

As she was speaking, Madam Zhen came in with Concubine Wan's sister.

"Your humble servant and my daughter would like to pay our respects to Empress Wanfei!" Madam Zhen said with a salute.

"Mother, you're welcome. Please get up quickly." Concubine Wan wanted to help her mother up.

"Your Majesty, no!" Madam Zhen interrupted Concubine Wan.

"This is the rule and etiquette. Otherwise, others will say that Your Majesty doesn't know the rules and etiquette." After Mrs. Zhen finished speaking, she knelt down and saluted Concubine Wan.

Concubine Wan hurried over to help the lady up. "Mother, please get up soon. Yu Rao, please get up soon too. Mother is still as cautious as before. How is Father these days?"

Madam Zhen slowly sat down before she spoke: "Your father is fine, but mother is always worried."

"Mom, what happened?" she asked worriedly.

"It's nothing, but your father's temper is so stubborn and outspoken that it always makes people worry." Mrs. Zhen said worriedly.

"Don't worry, mother. Father is just like that. He just needs to be advised from time to time."

"Eldest sister, are you happy in the palace? Is your brother-in-law treating you well?" Yu Rao asked with concern.

"Brother-in-law? Yu Rao, are you talking about the emperor? The emperor is very good to me and cares for me, but he is also very tired. I always have to think about what to say to make him happy, which is also very tiring." Concubine Wan thought for a while and told Yu Rao gently.

"Although this palace is nice and magnificent, it is very boring. It is not as fun as our house." Yu Rao thought so and said it out loud.

"Yu Rao, this is in the palace, you can't talk nonsense. Mother taught you to be cautious at all times when you enter the palace. Now you have forgotten everything." Madam Zhen frowned and said to Yu Rao with a serious expression.

She knew that Yu Rao was innocent and naive, but the rules in the inner court of the imperial palace were strict and any carelessness would lead to trouble.

"Mother, I know, don't worry." Yu Rao winked mischievously, revealing a nonchalant expression. She felt that she was just telling the truth and there was nothing wrong with it.

"Yu Rao, you must listen to your mother. You must be careful and cautious in the palace in the future and don't offend people easily." Madam Zhen taught earnestly, her eyes full of worry and concern.

"Mother, it's okay. This is in our own palace. Besides, Yu Rao is telling the truth. It's no big deal." As she said that, Concubine Wan touched Yu Rao's head lovingly and smiled.

She knew that her sister was simple-minded and had no ill intentions, and she did not want to overly restrict her nature.

"Mother is here now, so please stay for a few more days. I haven't seen her and Yu Rao for a long time." Concubine Wan said coquettishly.

"Yes, the Empress's due date is approaching, and mother is worried. It is with the Emperor's grace that I can enter the palace to accompany the Empress during childbirth." Madam Zhen looked at the woman in front of her, feeling both happy and distressed.

"Huanbi, go get some cakes that mother and Yurao like to eat, and make a pot of tea. Mother loves Biluochun the most." Concubine Wan hurriedly instructed Huanbi.

"Yes, your majesty!" Huanbi responded happily, then quickly walked towards the kitchen.

After a while, Huanbi and Liuzhu came back with a plate of exquisite pastries and a pot of steaming Biluochun tea.

They placed the cakes on the table and carefully poured each person a cup of tea.

"Sister, try this osmanthus cake, it's so sweet!" Yu Rao picked up a piece of cake and handed it to her sister, her eyes full of anticipation.

Wan Fei took the cake with a smile, took a bite, and praised: "Mm, it's delicious! Yu Rao, come and eat it too."

Yu Rao happily told her sister about the interesting things in her recent life, and she listened patiently to her sister, occasionally inserting a few words of concern.

Mrs. Zhen looked at this scene and felt a warm current in her heart. She was also very pleased to see the sisters being so close to each other.

At this moment, Concubine Wan suddenly seemed to remember something and turned to Huanbi and said, "Huanbi, I remember that the white jade tea set that the emperor gave me last time has not been used yet. Today is a good time to use it."

Huanbi quickly nodded in agreement and turned to fetch the exquisite white jade tea set. When she carefully placed the tea set on the table, everyone couldn't help but admire it.
