Zhan Yan glanced around and then said, "You asked me to pinch you!"

Emperor Sheng An was aggrieved: "You really used too much force! It hurts so much, I must have gotten bruises from you pinching me!"

Zhan Yan curled his lips, looking as if he was being unreasonable.

Emperor Sheng An then spoke with hope on his face: "Madam Hou, I understand what you just said. Are you saying that the Queen is pregnant with twins?"

Lin Yiwan nodded: "Yes, didn't you see that the Queen's belly is much bigger than that of an ordinary pregnant woman?"

Emperor Sheng An nodded hurriedly: "I found out, I thought the Queen ate too much and got a little fat!"

The Queen immediately raised her hand and pinched him: "Didn't you say that I don't eat much and am not fat?"

Emperor Sheng An suddenly jumped up in pain: "Empress, can't you pinch me somewhere else? Did you discuss this with Zhan Yan? Why are you pinching me in the same spot?"

Seeing his angry look, the queen couldn't help but laugh.

Because the queen lost her twins, the emperor specially rewarded everyone in the Weiyang Palace and held a banquet in the evening.

Lin Yiwan naturally did not leave either. She made a new pregnancy plan for the queen.

After all, twins are very dangerous, and any abnormal fetal position will affect the mother.

The queen also felt like she was facing a great enemy. She searched the palace again, fearing that someone would plot against her.

Youyi and Rongpin lived in a side hall without being disturbed by anyone, and they lived a comfortable life.

However, Madam Meng was going to leave Weiyang Palace, and after the banquet, she reluctantly said goodbye to Youyi.

Youyi put her arms around her neck and said, "Mom, Youyi will miss you!"

Madam Meng said lovingly, "Next time mother comes, I'll bring you some delicious candied haws!"

Youyi leaned close to her ear and reminded her, "Mother, I don't want candied haws, I want folded ears. Can you secretly send folded ears to me in the palace?"

Madam Meng's expression suddenly changed. She quickly shook her head: "That won't do. Folded Ear is a puppy. It will scare you!"

Youyi bit her lip. "But I want to fold my ears. Can't you just let me take a look at her? When I was not well before, you didn't allow me to touch it. But now I am strong. Why are you still stopping me?"

She paused, then pleaded, "Mother, please help me, please. I'll just take a look!"

Rongpin, who was walking in with goat milk, saw this scene and couldn't help but ask distressedly: "What happened to Madam Meng? What does Youyi want?"

Madam Meng replied hesitantly, "Her Royal Highness said she wanted to name a dog called Fold Ear. Fold Ear is a little black dog she rescued on a rainy day. It was bullied by a big dog and had half of its ear bitten off, so she named it Fold Ear!"

Rongpin laughed: "This name is fresh, but since our Youyi likes it, then bring her in. What are you afraid of?"

Madam Meng quickly explained, "It's not that the Empress has just been diagnosed with twins. I'm afraid that if she gets scared by the Folded Ears while we're staying in Weiyang Palace, it won't be good!"

Rongpin nodded and said, "You're right. I'll inform the Queen and keep Zhe'er in our palace to prevent him from escaping."

Madam Meng finally breathed a sigh of relief: "Okay, then I will bring the Folded Ear Dog to Her Royal Highness the Princess tomorrow!"

After she left the palace, a figure appeared from the side hall and ran quickly towards Concubine De's palace stealthily.

Defei had heard that things were very lively on the Queen's side, but she didn't know what was going on.

When he heard the visitor report that the queen was pregnant with twins, he was so angry that he smashed the tea sets on the table.

She said with a fierce look in her eyes, "Why is it that I have so many troubles here, while her queen is able to give birth to twins safely and soundly?"

The old nanny beside her said worriedly, "Empress Defei, if the Queen can really give birth to twins safely, then the Emperor will only have eyes for her. What are you going to do?"

Concubine De shook her head vigorously: "No, I will never let her get what she wants. What I don't have, she must not have either!"

The old nanny frowned and said, "But the Weiyang Palace is heavily guarded. We can't do anything!"

Concubine De uttered a short, cold laugh. "Even though Weiyang Palace is heavily guarded, people are still trying to get out! Keep a close eye on Madam Meng. We'll start with her!"

"Yes, I will send someone to guard the door of the harem. Whenever she enters the palace, I will inform you in advance!" After saying that, the old nanny turned around and left quickly.

Concubine De murmured sinisterly, "Lin Yiwan, I want to see how you can protect the Queen's twins. If I let her die, you will die too!"

The next day, Mrs. Meng entered the palace carrying a basket.

After Concubine De got the news, she immediately led her men forward to block the enemy.

She asked in surprise, "Madam Meng, what good things did you bring? Can you let me take a look?"

Madam Meng's expression suddenly changed. She subconsciously clenched the basket and said, "This is a toy for Princess Youyi. It's something children like, so it won't bother Consort De!"

Concubine De laughed: "How could that be? Madam Meng, don't worry, I won't mind it being an eyesore. Bring it here for me to see!"

She snatched Mrs. Meng's basket and opened the lid directly.

"Hey!" She widened her eyes in surprise when she saw a little black dog lying inside.

She asked in confusion: "How can this little thing be kept in the Queen's palace?"

Madam Meng explained: "I won't stay. I just asked Youyi to go and have a look. When Youyi was in the Prime Minister's Mansion, she often played with it!"

Concubine De raised her eyebrows: "I like it too, what should I do?"

Seeing Mrs. Meng's surprised expression, she couldn't help but laugh: "Don't worry, why would I snatch toys from a child!"

Mrs. Meng thought to herself, you keep saying you won’t rob, but why do you come back?

Unexpectedly, Concubine De not only did not return it, she even walked a few steps with it in her arms.

Madam Meng was worried to death. She was really afraid that Zhe'er would be woken up and run around in the harem, which might cause some trouble.

At this moment, a young maid came over quickly and said, "Madam Meng, when you just entered the palace, something fell into the inner hall where items are inspected!"

Mrs. Meng blinked in surprise: "No, I didn't leave anything behind!"

De Fei urged: "Then go and take a look. It happens that I can help you hold this little black dog for a while!"

Seeing that she was unwilling to come back, Madam Meng had no choice but to return to the inner hall.

When she saw her purse in the hands of the eunuch, she hurriedly thanked him, "Thank you very much. I left in such a hurry that I forgot about it!"

The eunuch nodded: "I have checked it, there is no problem with the purse!"

Mrs. Meng tied the purse around her waist and hurried back to the imperial garden in the harem.

At this time, Concubine De had disappeared, but Zhe'er was still sleeping soundly.

She finally breathed a sigh of relief, picked up the basket and walked quickly towards the Weiyang Palace.
