Good luck in pregnancy, the daughter of the prime minister's mansion has a soft waist

This dramatic event quickly spread throughout the capital, and rumors about the unclear relationship between the second daughter of the Shen family and the Xie Jing family came one after another, as well as the details of Wang blocking the door to fight for a concubine position.

"This is so shameful and disgusting!"

After returning home, Nanny Yang cursed and clapped her hands at the same time, thinking that the evildoers would need to be dealt with by someone even more ruthless in order to see any effect.

"I also learned that the second young lady once cried loudly in Madam's courtyard and resolutely refused to marry Xie Jing."

But now that things have come to this, she has no choice but to be forced to marry Xie Jing. After all, her reputation has been completely ruined.

"Disasters caused by God can be forgiven, but troubles caused by oneself will only be reaped by oneself."

After successfully solving the problem at hand, the exhausted Shen Muxue planned to have a good rest.

However, before she could catch her breath, someone outside announced that someone from the palace had come with an imperial decree, asking her to go and receive the title.

Shen Muxue was shocked when she heard this and could no longer sit still - could this be the marriage contract that the Queen Mother had given her?

We have just dealt with this matter, but who knows whether the safe and sound King Xian'an will become a new trouble.

If the imperial decree is issued now, wouldn't it mean that there will be no escape?

Maybe Shen Yuwei can marry on her behalf...

While thinking of various strategies in his mind, he hurried towards the hall.

The Wang mother and daughter, who had been waiting for a long time, looked very depressed and listless, as if they had suffered a heavy blow.

Not paying attention to the current situation of the two people, Shen Muxue knelt down respectfully and prepared to listen to the order.

The announcer slowly read, "By the will of Heaven, the Emperor decrees: Honor is bestowed upon the eldest daughter of the Shen family. May she uphold virtue, maintain harmony, diligently serve the royal family, and continue the imperial line. Following the Emperor's grace, she is promoted to the rank of Consort Shu."

After hearing this, Shen Muxue felt relieved and calmly accepted the imperial edict.

Wang and Shen Yuwei also stood up. The gloom that had previously shrouded their hearts disappeared, and both of them smiled as if they were enjoying a show.

Everyone knows that the current emperor is childless, and stepping into the deep palace will be like wasting the rest of his life.

"Congratulations, sister, on receiving this honor. I hope you'll soon give birth to a dragon offspring to continue the nation's prosperity."

As soon as Shen Yuwei finished speaking, a shrill and hoarse voice was heard.

"How dare you! Concubine Shu is a concubine appointed by His Majesty himself. How can you call her that? Come on, teach her a lesson!"

Immediately, a young eunuch stepped forward and knocked Shen Yuwei to the ground with a single palm strike, saying with a smile, "From now on, you must remember to address me as Empress Shufei."

Shen Yuwei's eyes were wide open, tears rolling down silently.

She felt that today was a day of misfortune, and she had fallen from one hardship to a deeper predicament.

Shen Muxue slowly approached, gently bent down to whisper in her sister's ear, "Thank you for your blessing, sister. I will definitely work hard to give His Majesty a child, and I also wish you and Master Xie a long and happy love."

You don't even know how you're doing, yet you have the leisure to mock others.

After returning to the room and tidying up quickly, Shen Muxue was about to follow the old eunuch into the palace.

At this time, Ruizhu hurried over to ask for help, only to see that her face was badly swollen. It seemed that Wang had already known that everything was caused by Ruizhu spreading false information.

"Please take me with you, young lady. I swear I will never betray you again."

Nanny Yang had also heard about Ruizhu's treasonous behavior today, but she advised, "Young lady, don't worry about this matter. Leave such a treacherous servant at home and let the adults deal with it. She only asked for the suffering she has endured."

Siyun next to him nodded vigorously in agreement.

But Shen Muxue looked at the person who had betrayed her with pride.

Since the nobles are in power in the palace, it is better to keep this chess piece for the other party to use in the future.

"If you can truly mend your ways, I'm willing to give you one last chance. But if you do it again, there will be no mercy!"

"As you command, thank you for your kindness, Miss."

Ruizhu kowtowed repeatedly, seeming to be very grateful.

When Nanny Yang wanted to persuade her further, Shen Muxue stopped her, saying that she might be of use in the future.

After finishing the cleaning, the four masters and servants entered the palace together. Shen Muxue was assigned to Linglong Palace, which was neither close nor far from Lingxiao Palace where the emperor lived.

After observing the simple interior decoration of the bedroom, Shen Muxue felt a little disappointed. It was not as luxurious as she had imagined.

Didn’t pretending to jump into the river to gain sympathy that day work?

But if he fails to impress the emperor, how can he be granted the throne?

If he had indeed won favor, why was he placed in such a remote place?

Could it be that the emperor heard about her dream in Hongfu Temple?

Was she summoned into the palace simply out of the desire for offspring?

Shen Muxue paced back and forth anxiously in the room until she heard a voice from outside announcing: His Majesty has arrived—

She quickly adjusted herself, wearing a light green silk dress, and bent her knees to salute with a body as light as a willow.

This outfit makes her skin look particularly white and translucent, and her whole person is as adorable as a green plant that has just sprouted.

"My beloved concubine, please stand up."

The emperor walked over quickly and offered his hand to help the new favorite concubine up.

The two of them stood very close to each other, and he held the other's slender and soft hand with his large and warm hand.

Although she lowered her head, it was not because she was shy or embarrassed, but because she didn't know how to deal with this sudden attention.

She raised her eyes slightly and looked at the man in front of her, and saw that he was looking at her with a smile.

"Have you forgotten me? Didn't we just meet this morning?"

The emperor said this in a slightly teasing yet solemn tone.

Shen Muxue shook her head and replied, "I didn't know your identity at the time. I just thought you were a bad person..."

She said this with a bit of playfulness.

After hearing this, the emperor laughed heartily. This was the first time he was compared to a young villain.

Usually people take the initiative to show their affection or even throw themselves into each other's arms. I never thought that such an interesting scene would occur.

"Did it frighten you then?"

"I am indeed a little scared."

Recalling Shen Muxue's panic-stricken look in the morning, he felt that he should proceed step by step.

So he found a place to sit down and prepared to chat with Shen Muxue about some daily topics in order to enhance their emotional connection.

"Why did you jump into the river today?"

She immediately revealed a pitiful look, and said with a feeling of grievance, "The Queen Mother sent a teaching nanny to me, saying that she wanted to marry me to Prince Xian'an. Originally, my mother wanted my younger sister to marry him, but she has always disliked me and was always looking for an opportunity... When I was in the Xie Mansion, someone took me to a room, and I smelled a strange smell there. Someone must be trying to harm me. I was terrified at the time and ran out in a hurry, fearing that I would have more trouble in the future. Thinking about all this, I felt more and more desperate, so I thought that it would be better to die and leave a clear name. Fortunately, I met you, Your Majesty, who saved me..."

This fragile beauty cried bitterly, tears streaming down her face.
