Jinwei joins hands in rebirth: villains can also eat at the table

The one who made the ridicule was Jin Yuyan. She had wanted to use the Wanshou Festival to regain favor, but she didn't expect that in the end she would be overshadowed by Bai Ruiji, who never showed off.

How could she possibly swallow this? Last night, the Emperor summoned her to his bedchamber, and a lot of things were broken in Qixiang Palace.

Having finally found a mistake, she naturally would not let it go easily.

"Sister Meifei's dance last night was so stunning that the emperor, not to mention her, even I, was fascinated by her. Isn't our job as concubines to serve the emperor well? If some people don't have the ability to win the emperor's heart, then let those who do have the ability do it."

Yan Wan came to pay her respects early, and she was not in a good mood. She looked listless, and looked at the exquisite Suzhou embroidery patterns on the shoe uppers with boredom, and said softly.

"What business has this had on you? I'm only speaking up for the Empress to rectify the palace rules. What? If everyone were like Concubine Mei, who disrespects the Empress the moment she's favored, wouldn't the palace be in chaos?"

Seeing that it was Yan Wan who was talking again, Jin Yuyan knew that the two of them were on good terms and that she was probably involved in it. She was so angry that her teeth were itching and her eyes were almost rolling to the sky.

"Is Concubine Jia also aware that this is happening in the Yikun Palace? The Empress Dowager has already said it's fine, so what's going on? Could it be that Concubine Jia is trying to take over the Empress Dowager's affairs? In my opinion, speaking for the Empress Dowager is fake, and using public power for personal gain is the real reason."

"Alright, all of you, cut the smack. How can a concubine start a quarrel in front of the Empress?"

Hearing that the two were arguing more and more excessively, Concubine Chun took a look and found that Ruyi looked unhappy, so she quickly interrupted them.

Ruyi hadn't slept well to begin with, and now she was feeling annoyed. Thinking of the Empress Dowager's scolding last night, she sighed deeply and said, "The palace banquet ended late last night, and Concubine Mei had to continue serving the Emperor. It was indeed very hard. Rongpei, go to the storehouse and pick out some good rewards for Concubine Mei to take back. You should also learn more from Concubine Mei and soon have more children for the royal family."

"I thank the Queen for the reward."

"I respectfully follow the Queen's teachings."

After hearing what she said, all the concubines stood up and saluted.

The Queen has spoken, what else can we do?

Before Jin Yuyan could vent her anger, the farce ended abruptly.

"Okay, let's stop here for today. I'm a little tired."

Ruyi felt tired and had a severe headache. She rubbed her forehead and waved her hand to let everyone leave.

"Chen and concubine retire."

"Sister Ling Fei really has a good plan. I didn't expect that she would be promoted to a concubine after just one dance. It's all thanks to you. Come to my palace and have a seat. I have many good things there. I'll let you take them back later."

Concubine Mei happily held Yanwan's hand. She had lost her fighting spirit since she lost her son and had been stuck in the position of concubine for many years. She thought that her life would be like this, but she didn't expect that she could be promoted to concubine.

She narrowed her eyes slightly. She wanted to climb up step by step. Letting Jin Yuyan die would be too easy for her. She wanted to take away everything she had and watch her fall into poverty step by step. It would be best if she could live a life worse than death. Only then could she relieve the hatred in her heart.

Yanwan smiled softly. She looked at the blue sky and the birds flying above the palace walls, and was in a good mood.

"Then I'd be remiss if you refused. Actually, it's my elder sister who is very intelligent and quick to understand. It's also my younger sister's blessing."

The two of them walked to Chengqian Palace and went to visit Yihuan.

She has not been feeling well recently, so Ruyi exempted her from paying her respects. She also only sat for a short while at the palace banquet last night before leaving.

When the two entered the inner hall, they found Yihuan sitting at the table listlessly.

She looked pale and listless, leaning weakly on the pillow, with none of her former stunning charm.

"Sister Shu Fei, why do you look even worse today? Do you want to call the imperial physician to come and see?"

Seeing her pale face, Yan Wan was a little worried. Her eyes flickered slightly, and she glanced at her belly. She had already guessed why she was like this.

Concubine Mei also joined in the advice, saying, "That's right. It's not a good idea for you to keep going like this. You have to find the root of the problem and prescribe the right remedy."

Yihuan shook her head weakly, and after asking the palace maid to serve tea to the two, she explained weakly, "I have a weak spleen and stomach. Perhaps it's because the autumn heat has been too severe recently, so I don't have an appetite. It will get better after a while."

She was always this weak, and she had gotten used to it. As the saying goes, long illness makes a doctor, and she knew her own body well. She didn't want to be too conspicuous, so she rarely summoned the imperial physician.

Yihuan had just finished speaking when she smelled the fragrance of tea. She felt nauseous for no reason and vomited in front of the two of them.

Yan Wan was frightened and hurried over to help her calm down.

As she was patting, she felt something was wrong and looked up at Bai Ruiji: "Is this a sign of pregnancy? Sister Meifei, take a quick look. Is it the same as when you were pregnant last year?"

"Yes, yes, yes. I was also like this back then. I had no appetite and was often nauseous. Sister Shufei, do you usually sleep well? Do you always feel heavy, weak, and sleepy?"

Yihuan was stunned for a moment, then nodded quickly after thinking about it.

"That's pretty much it. Quick, help her back to bed."

"What are you still standing there for? Chunchan, take my badge and go with Hexi to the Imperial Hospital to get the doctor. Hurry up."

Seeing Yihuan panicking and not knowing what to do, Yanwan quickly ordered the people from Chengqian Palace to follow Chunchan to invite the imperial physician.

The person who came was Qi Ru. When he heard that it was Chengqian Palace, he rushed over immediately. The pregnancy medicine that this master drank was prepared by him personally, so he hoped that nothing would go wrong.

As soon as he took the patient's pulse, Qi Ru's heart sank.

He had clearly personally concocted a medicine that could prevent pregnancy, so how come this young lady still got pregnant?

Now Qi Ru felt cold all over, and his neck was even colder.

"How is it? Is Sister Shufei pregnant?" Yan Wan asked anxiously.

Qi Ru quickly adjusted his expression, stood up and bowed, and replied with difficulty: "Congratulations, Empress Shu Fei, it is indeed a pregnancy pulse."

His voice was hoarse, and he was already thinking about how to explain to the emperor.

"Great! My sister and the Emperor's long-cherished wish has finally come true. Hexi, quickly go to the Yangxin Palace to announce the good news for your master. Thank you, Doctor Qi. This is a small reward. Please have a cup of tea. Chunchan, send Doctor Qi back."

Seeing that the examination was almost over, since this was the concubine's bedroom after all, the imperial physician could not stay for long, so Yan Wan quickly sent him back.

Yihuan was overwhelmed by the news for a moment, and when she came to her senses, she was already in tears. She touched her flat belly, where a little life was growing, the child of her and her beloved.

"I've sentenced this child to many years, and I thought there was no hope. I've also stopped taking the pregnancy medication for a while, but I never expected it to actually come. Yanwan, did I hear correctly? I'm really...really pregnant?"

Yan Wan quickly grasped her hand, tears in her eyes, and smiled as she replied, "Sister, you're so happy! This is what Doctor Qi said himself. Even if you don't believe yourself, you have to believe Doctor Qi, right? Child, I'm your Empress Dowager. You have to come out early. I'll take you out to play, okay?"

As Yanwan spoke, she placed her hand on Yihuan's lower abdomen, her face full of anticipation.

"Are you stupid? He's only a month old and his ears haven't even grown yet, so how can he hear? The imperial physician said it takes at least five months for a baby to hear. Don't hurt him."

Bai Ruiji moved her hand away unhappily, and then carefully helped Yihuan cover her belly.

"I don't care. When the baby is born, I have to ask him to recognize me as his godmother. I have to go back and prepare a good gift. What do you think? Is the baby a boy or a girl?"

Yi Huan happily held her belly and lowered her head shyly: "This is the first child of the emperor and me. I like it no matter whether it is a boy or a girl."

"I think it's better to have a boy. He will be as handsome and heroic as the emperor in the future..."

"The girl is not bad either, sweet and well-behaved, and she must be as pretty as Sister Huan..."
