I fulfilled the female supporting role's wish and I succeeded

The emperor sat on the dragon throne, his eyes gleaming with admiration, and said to the queen:

"I want to promote Meizhuang to be a concubine. What do you think?"

The Queen smiled gently and replied softly:

"Your Majesty, Concubine Shen is currently pregnant. It would be better to wait until she gives birth before promoting her to a higher rank. This would better reflect Your Majesty's grace."

After hearing this, the emperor's eyes showed approval and he smiled and said:

"The Queen is absolutely right. You always think carefully for me and are truly my virtuous wife."

The Queen bowed her head humbly and said softly, "I don't deserve this. I'm just doing my duty."

The emperor was moved and immediately announced: "Lady Shen has behaved appropriately and dignifiedly. I grant her the title of 'Hui'."

Mei Zhuang's face flushed with surprise when she heard this. She knelt down respectfully and thanked him, "Your Majesty, I thank you for your great grace."

The emperor nodded with satisfaction, and as he watched Mei Zhuang stand up gracefully, he became even more convinced that his decision was correct.

East Side Hall of Xianfu Palace

An Lingrong walked quickly into Shen Meiyu's bedroom with an unconcealable anxiety on her face.

She looked around and confirmed that no one was around before she called out softly, "Sister Meizhuang."

Shen Meizhuang was sitting in front of the dressing table fixing her hair. When she heard the voice, she turned around and said with a smile, "Sister Rong'er, you're here."

An Lingrong took a few steps closer and said in a low voice, "Sister, I have something important to tell you."

There was a look of worry in her eyes.

Shen Meizhuang sensed the solemn atmosphere, put down the comb in her hand, and stood up. "Sister, please speak."

An Lingrong took a deep breath, gently held Shen Meizhuang's hands with both hands, and said in a sincere and urgent tone:

"Sister, you are now pregnant with the dragon heir, and your every move affects the hearts of many people. I implore you to act with caution and not give anyone any leverage."

An Lingrong's eyes flashed with panic. She held Shen Meizhuang's hand tightly and said in a trembling voice, "Sister, I just got shocking news. Concubine Hua is plotting to frame you for a fake pregnancy!"

Upon hearing this, Shen Meizhuang's face turned pale instantly.

She subconsciously placed her hand on her abdomen and asked softly, "Is this true?"

An Lingrong nodded, her eyes full of worry.

She approached Shen Meizhuang and whispered, "Just in case, I think you should quietly find a reliable imperial physician to take a look."

"This will not only ensure the well-being of the fetus, but also provide evidence to prove my innocence."

When Shen Meizhuang heard this, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes, and then turned into emotion.

She nodded gently and replied softly, "Thank you for the reminder, sister. I understand that the matter of the Dragon Heir is of great importance, and I will be very careful and cautious."

An Lingrong took Shen Meizhuang's hand and said softly:

"Sister, let's go to Jingyang Palace. I've already made arrangements, and Doctor Xu will be waiting there."

Shen Meizhuang nodded and followed An Lingrong through the palace corridors to Jingyang Palace.

The sunlight shines through the window lattice, casting mottled shadows on the ground.

Doctor Xu bowed respectfully and began to feel Shen Meizhuang's pulse. Shen Meizhuang looked at Doctor Xu's expression nervously, her palms sweating slightly.

After a moment, Doctor Xu withdrew his hand, his face showing embarrassment: "Your Majesty, I have not been able to detect any signs of the fetus."

Upon hearing this, Shen Meizhuang's face instantly turned pale, and her body trembled slightly. She turned to An Lingrong, her voice filled with fear: "Rong'er, this...what should I do?"

An Lingrong held Shen Meiyu's hand and comforted her softly, "Don't panic, sister. We will definitely find a way." There was a firm light in her eyes, giving Shen Meiyu silent support.

An Lingrong's brow furrowed in anxiety. She clenched her fists, closed her eyes, and called out in her mind, "Mengmeng, are you there? I desperately need your help!"

The system's voice rang in her mind: "I'm here. How can I help you?"

An Lingrong asked anxiously, "Is there any elixir that can change Shen Meizhuang's pulse so that other imperial physicians will diagnose her as pregnant?"

She opened her eyes and stared at Shen Meizhuang's pale face, praying silently in her heart that the system would give a positive answer.

The atmosphere in the room was solemn, and the sunlight outside the window seemed to have become a little dimmer.

The system's voice sounded in An Lingrong's mind, with a hint of hesitation:

"There's a drug called 'Fake Pregnancy Pill' that can change the pulse."

"After taking it, the imperial physician's diagnosis will show that you are pregnant. However, the effect of this medicine can only last for three months."

"After three months, symptoms of spontaneous abortion will appear, and the pulse will be consistent with miscarriage."

After hearing this, a glimmer of hope flashed in An Lingrong's eyes.

She took a deep breath, turned to Shen Meizhuang, and said softly, "Sister, I have a plan, but it may be risky. Would you like to hear it?"

Shen Meizhuang clutched An Lingrong's hand tightly, tears welling in her eyes. "Rong'er, tell me. I have no choice now."

An Lingrong told Shen Meiyu about the fake pregnancy pill.

After saying that, she stared at Shen Meizhuang's face nervously, waiting for her reaction.

Shen Meizhuang was silent for a moment, then looked out the window. The sunlight filtered through the window lattice, casting mottled shadows on her face.

She whispered, "Let's do it."

An Lingrong nodded, took out a small porcelain bottle from her sleeve, poured out a pill and handed it to Shen Meizhuang.

Shen Meizhuang took the pill and swallowed it without hesitation.

The room fell silent, broken only by the chirping of birds outside the window.

The two women held each other's hands tightly, with a hint of hope and worry in their eyes.

Shen Meizhuang let out a long sigh and gently stroked her abdomen with both hands.

She looked up at An Lingrong, her eyes filled with tears, her voice trembling slightly:

"Rong'er, if it weren't for you, I really don't know what to do. You saved me again."

An Lingrong held Shen Meizhuang's hand, shook her head gently, and said softly, "Sister, you are too kind. We should support each other."

Her eyes were gentle and firm, giving Shen Meizhuang silent support.

Shen Meizhuang took a deep breath, and a hint of determination flashed in her eyes.

She stood up and walked to the window. The sunlight shone on her face, casting a golden halo on her.

She turned to face An Lingrong and said firmly, "Rong'er, thank goodness you're by my side."

"Without your reminder and help, I'm afraid I would have fallen into someone else's trap. If they faked a pregnancy to win my favor, I would never have been able to recover."

An Lingrong walked to Shen Meiyu and gently put her arm around her shoulders.

A breeze blew in from the window, bringing with it the fragrance of flowers.

An Lingrong looked at Shen Meizhuang's grateful eyes, and a warm feeling welled up in her heart. She gently held Shen Meizhuang's hand and said softly, "Sister, we should help each other. If you need anything in the future, just come to me."

Tears welled up in Shen Meizhuang's eyes. She nodded and said, "Rong'er, I will never forget your kindness. From now on, I will stand with you in mind and heart."

An Lingrong was secretly delighted. After this incident, Shen Meizhuang had completely sided with her. This unbreakable alliance would become her strongest support in the harem.
