The emperor's decree says it all.

The empress dowager did not stop her. She also thought that this position was too high, but if she was pregnant with the emperor's child, that would be a different matter.

"Emperor, it's getting late, and I'm feeling a little unwell. Please take good care of Concubine Su. Queen, please accompany me back."

The queen's expression didn't change at all. No matter what happened, it wouldn't affect her at all, so she wasn't worried.

She glanced at Su Mei indifferently, stood up and left with the Queen Mother.

After the Imperial Hospital completed the diagnosis, they prescribed medicine to preserve the fetus for Su Mei. Only when Su Mei's face turned rosy and the fetus looked stable did the emperor let some of them leave.

Other experienced ones followed the emperor to the imperial study.

After everyone respectfully saw the emperor and Su Mei off, Concubine Rou's face looked extremely ugly.

She had intended to kill two birds with one stone, but ended up shooting herself in the foot.

But how could it be such a coincidence that she got pregnant at this time?

There's obviously something fishy going on here!

However, even if there is an article now, she doesn't dare to check it carefully.

If you look closely, you will find that Lady Yi does not have this baby at all, and the father might even be implicated.

"The person who did the work just now, come up." Concubine Rou gritted her teeth.

"Your Highness." Noble Lady Yi stepped forward. "I feel a little unwell. I will go back and rest first."

Concubine Rou nodded casually.

After leaving Concubine Rou's palace, Su Mei sighed, "Your Majesty, the position you gave me is too high. I am unlucky and I dare not receive such an honor just because I am pregnant."

"If I say you can, then you can." Qi Sihan emphasized, "You don't have to be afraid or feel helpless when you are with me. In the future, I will be your greatest support."

Su Meiyi said, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace."

She originally thought that she would at least be a noble lady, but she didn't expect the emperor to give her the position of concubine directly.

But it suited her just fine.

It's time for her to free up her hands to deal with those bad people in the Su family and that unfaithful man.

Everyone in the room had left. Lady Yi sent her personal maid, Fu Ping, into the inner room. "Lady Yi, how are you?"

"It's okay." Concubine Yi lay back against the pillow, "I won't drink the medicine my sister gave me. I'd rather mix it myself, even if it hurts my body."

"My beauty, don't be sad. This child never existed in the first place. Be careful not to hurt yourself and take good care of yourself. Everything is possible." Fu Ping blew on the medicinal soup in her hand. "Look at Concubine Su. She was just a little palace maid, but because she got pregnant, she immediately became Concubine Su."

"Yes, she was already a concubine when she got pregnant. Even if I had a miscarriage, I would still be just a beauty. It shows that I have always been insignificant." Lady Yi subconsciously touched her belly. "It's better not to have a child. If I did, it would be a burden for him to be born in my humble body."

"My beauty, please do not belittle yourself. In fact, even if you really have a child, it will be raised in someone else's palace. Even if you really have a child, Concubine Rou will definitely not sit idly by and wait for death. She will not watch you sit on the throne by relying on your son's status."

"Forget it. It was all a false alarm. Now it's considered good. At least I have the title of beauty." Lady Yi took the medicine and drank it all.

Fu Ping helped her lie down, "You lost a lot of energy tonight, so you need to take good care of yourself, otherwise it will easily cause illness in the future."

When Concubine Rou returned to the room, she threw things all over the floor.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, please don't be angry. At least, Concubine Yang has been eliminated as planned." The maid anxiously advised her.

"Concubine Yang has been eliminated, and now there is a new Concubine Su. She is more difficult to deal with than that fool Concubine Yang. Go and ask her about the progress of the matter I want to investigate." Concubine Rou's chest heaved with anger.

"Your Majesty, Xiao Linzi has been here. He said that Su Mei's father was just an ordinary businessman and her mother died early. Su Mei was dissolute and had a very bad reputation. Her father and stepmother hated her, so they sent her to the temple to practice. Somehow, she met our emperor and was brought into the palace. Xiao Linzi also said that Su Mei liked Murong Yuan, the third place winner of this year's imperial examination, very much, and that Murong Yuan had studied at the Su family before." The maid hurriedly reported.

"Murong Yuan, isn't he the one my cousin fell in love with a few days ago? He is now working in the Ministry of Revenue. I heard that my cousin is on a hunger strike with her family because of him." Concubine Rou's cousin is the daughter of the Minister of Revenue.

Because she was favored by her family, she had a plump body and was extremely plump among the noble ladies.

When Concubine Rou first heard that she was on a hunger strike, she was very surprised. You know, her cousin has always regarded food as her life and would never starve herself.

It can be seen that Murong Yuan does have some skills.

"Concubine Su has been in the palace for so long, I think she must miss her family. Send someone to invite Concubine Su's family into the palace so that she can have a good reunion with her family. Also, send someone to invite my cousin and her fiancé to the palace and tell them that I miss her." Concubine Rou sneered.

Concubine Rou gradually calmed down her anger and said, "Just wait and see, a big show is about to begin."

No one knew that because Su Mei was pregnant and was made a concubine, the lights in most of the palaces were on all night.

However, in the palace, these grievances were buried in the deep night.

When the queen got up early to pay her respects, she had dark circles under her eyes, which was rare.

Concubine Rou used the excuse that she was not feeling well today and did not come.

Concubine Rong, Noble Lady Xin, and Lady Shen all took leave at the same time.

Seeing that not many people came and she herself was very sleepy, the queen hurriedly told everyone to take care of themselves and then dismissed them.

The weather is getting colder.

The most important palace-wide night banquet is about to begin. This is the most important festival in winter besides the Lantern Festival.

On this day, the emperor would drink with his royal relatives, important ministers and their families to celebrate the festival together.

Su Mei's conferment ceremony was completed the day before, and the emperor gave her a courtyard next to the imperial study.

As soon as they moved into the yard, the Ministry of Internal Affairs sent charcoal for the winter and also assigned a lot of people to serve. Cui'er also came back.

Qiangwei originally wanted to come over, but under Su Mei's suggestion, Eunuch Lai Fu firmly disagreed to let her come.

Su Mei made a simple division of labor, letting Xiaolan pick some to serve in the house, and the rest to stay in the outer yard.

As for her personal servants, they were Cui'er and Xiaomei.

Now, everyone in the palace knows that she is pregnant. I wonder how many of these people came to her with a mission.

Before confirmation, Su Mei just felt at ease leaving Xiaomei and Xiaolan by her side.

After all, this was the person chosen by Eunuch Lai Fu, and the person chosen by Eunuch Lai Fu was also the person chosen by the emperor, so Su Mei was still relatively relieved.

Most of the young eunuchs and palace maids who were transferred to this palace were happy. They understood that the more noble their master was, the better their lives would be.
