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

Changchun Xianguan

The Queen slowly put down the teacup in her hand and gazed out the window with a deep gaze. She whispered to Jianqiu, "What a cruel twist of fate. Shen Meizhuang is actually pregnant with a dragon fetus."

Jianqiu knelt beside him and responded cautiously, "Your Majesty is right. This saves us a lot of effort."

The queen smiled slightly, a shrewd look in her eyes. "Yes, an unborn child bought her a concubine position. This child can be said to have been put to good use."

She stood up and walked to the window, gazing at the peonies in full bloom in the courtyard. The petals swayed gently in the spring breeze. The queen took a deep breath and continued, "Things in this world are sometimes so wonderful. The very things we strive so hard to accomplish, are often accomplished by Heaven."

Jianqiu lowered her head and softly agreed, "Your Majesty is wise. This is truly God helping us."

The Queen turned and looked at Jianqiu with a piercing gaze. "However, we cannot let our guard down. No one can become pregnant with a dragon fetus. Do you understand?"

Jianqiu immediately understood and replied respectfully, "I understand."

The Queen slowly walked to the window, her fingertips gently stroking the window frame. She turned back to look at Jianqiu, a cold glint in her eyes. "Do you have any new news about An Lingrong?"

Jianqiu bowed her head and replied respectfully, "Your Majesty, An Lingrong is heavily guarded, and it's difficult for us to intervene."

The queen frowned slightly, with a hint of displeasure in her tone: "What should we do?"

Jianqiu's eyes flashed with cunning, and she whispered, "My Queen, perhaps we can take action when she's giving birth. Arrange a few trusted women to be midwives, and then..."

The queen's eyes lit up, and a sneer curled up at the corner of her mouth: "One corpse, two lives, no one can survive." She turned and looked at the blooming peonies in the courtyard, and said softly: "Go and make the arrangements."

Shuimu Mingse

An Lingrong sat on the couch by the window, gently stroking her swollen belly, a happy smile on her face. She turned to look at Qiuyue standing beside her, her eyes gleaming with anticipation.

"Qiuyue, we'll be returning to the palace in a few days," An Lingrong said softly, "and by then you'll be due to give birth."

Qiuyue smiled and nodded, then walked a few steps closer and poured An Lingrong a cup of warm tea. "Yes, Your Majesty. Time flies."

An Lingrong took the teacup and took a sip. She looked out the window at the blossoming flowers in the yard. The spring sunshine shone brightly on the petals, making them appear especially beautiful.

"I've already mentioned this to the Emperor. I'll have my mother accompany me during the birthing process." An Lingrong's voice was filled with a hint of joy. "It's wonderful to be able to see my family at a time like this."

After hearing this, Qiuyue's face also showed genuine joy. "That's great! The Queen will definitely be very happy."

An Lingrong nodded and gently stroked her belly. A breeze blew in from the window, bringing with it the scent of flowers. She took a deep breath, closed her eyes, and savored this beautiful moment.

"Yes, it's wonderful to see my family." An Lingrong opened her eyes, her eyes filled with tenderness. "Although it's been quiet lately, I always feel like something's missing. Now that I think about it, it's probably just homesickness."

Qiuyue listened to An Lingrong's words, and a hint of homesickness welled up in her eyes. She softly agreed, "Your Majesty is right. With family around, everything will be different."

When An Lingrong was immersed in homesickness, Chunhua quietly reported: "Your Majesty, Concubine Cao wants to see you."

An Lingrong smiled slightly and said, "Let her in."

A moment later, Concubine Cao walked in gracefully and bowed to An Lingrong. An Lingrong gestured for her to sit down and asked kindly, "What's the important matter that brings you here, Concubine Cao?"

After Concubine Cao sat down, her eyes sparkled with excitement, and she lowered her voice and said, "Your Majesty, Huanbi has been taught almost everything. Do you have any good suggestions?"

An Lingrong's eyes flickered with shrewdness after hearing this. She gently stroked her swollen belly, and after a moment's contemplation, she said, "This really needs to be carefully planned, so that Zhen Huan can't complain."

Concubine Cao nodded in agreement: "Your Majesty is right."

An Lingrong stood up and slowly walked to the window. The spring sunshine shone on her face, adding a soft glow to her. She turned back to look at Concubine Cao, her eyes gleaming with wisdom. "I have an idea. How about..."

The two men began to discuss in low voices, and the room was filled with an atmosphere of conspiracy.

Fanying Pavilion

Zhen Huan stood by the window, gazing at the scenery within Fanying Pavilion. As night fell, the fragrance of the flowers in the courtyard drifted on the wind. An unconscious smile played on her lips, a glint of pride in her eyes.

"The Emperor is here to keep me company again tonight," she whispered to herself, her fingers lightly stroking the window frame.

Turning to look towards the bathroom, Zhen Huan felt a surge of satisfaction. She slowly walked to the dressing table and carefully arranged her hair.

"It seems that the emperor's love for me has not diminished at all." She said to herself in the bronze mirror, her eyes full of confidence.

Zhen Huan picked up a jade hairpin and gently inserted it into her bun. Her movements were graceful and calm, and the smile on her face became more and more obvious.

At this moment, the bathroom door was slowly pushed open. Huanbi's graceful figure appeared at the door. She lowered her eyes and said softly, "Your Majesty, the young lady asked me to serve you."

The Emperor looked up and saw Huanbi's face, which bore a striking resemblance to Empress Chunyuan. His breathing quickened, and a fiery light flashed in his eyes.

"Come here." The emperor ordered in a hoarse voice, reaching out and pulling Huanbi's slender wrist.

Huanbi obediently approached, bowing her head before the emperor. The emperor's gaze lingered on her, and he felt a surge of desire rising within him. He suddenly stood up and pulled Huanbi into his arms.

"You...you really look like her." The emperor murmured to himself, stroking Huanbi's face with his fingers.

Huanbi trembled slightly, but did not resist. She responded softly: "Your Majesty..."

The emperor could no longer restrain himself and lowered his head to kiss Huanbi's lips.

Zhen Huan stood by the window, her brows slightly furrowed. She turned her head toward the bathroom and whispered to Liu Zhu, "The Emperor seems to be taking an unusually long bath today."

Liu Zhu nodded in agreement: "Yes, my lady. Do you want me to go and take a look?"

Zhen Huan shook her head and walked towards the bathroom: "No need, I'll go and see for myself."

As she approached the bathroom door, she suddenly heard a low gasp and a suppressed moan from inside. Zhen Huan's face turned pale in an instant, and her hands tightly gripped the door frame, her knuckles turning white.
