The little fox is super pregnant, the heir-less boss is spoiling her like crazy

The system actually wanted to play dead. Su Mei never chatted with it when she had nothing to do. But when she needed to use it, it would not delay for a second.

There are so many good things in the system, but she doesn't even buy one or two on credit. It's really hard to earn some points from her.

Fortunately, this fox is quite capable in completing tasks.

System: [Okay, stupid fox.]

There's nothing we can do. Since it chose the host itself, we can only pamper it.

The Empress Dowager's birthday banquet was a big event, so everyone arrived early.

Even Yang, who had been under house arrest, came.

Su Mei hasn't seen her for half a year.

When I first met her, she was still arrogant and domineering.

Although she is just a beauty, she goes beyond the rules in dressing and traveling, and she exudes an air of superiority.

Today, she was only accompanied by a little palace maid.

She wore a peach-colored palace gown embroidered with lotus flowers, a simple pearl flower on her head, and a silver bracelet on her hand that looked a bit sad.

After all, she was once the emperor's favorite concubine. At that time, the emperor only demoted her rank and confined her to house arrest, but did not confiscate the rewards given to her.

It can be seen that she had a very hard time during the past six months without grace.

As expected, the teachings given by people are far less profound than those given by events.

Lady Yi came in right after her.

Everyone's eyes fell on the two of them at the same time.

The events in Concubine Rou's palace had caused quite a stir, and everyone was curious about what would happen if the two met.

Yang agreed to see Lady Yi, and she walked forward with proper manners and came in front of Lady Yi.

Everyone's eyes became heated, as if they were all waiting to see a good show.

"Greetings, Lady Yi." Yang agreed and just bowed politely.

Lady Yi was originally worried, but now she felt relieved.

She nodded, "Yang agrees."

The two enemies exchanged a few simple greetings and then returned to their respective seats.

There were inevitably some disappointed looks in the crowd, as they thought they were going to fight.

Su Mei saw all of this, but she was not surprised.

If after all this, Yang Da Ying's character has not changed at all, it would be a waste of her trip.

After a while, the Queen Mother and the Empress arrived.

Everyone stood up and saluted the two of them.

"Meet the Queen Mother"

"Meet the Queen"

After the Empress Dowager was helped to sit down by the old maid beside her, she smiled and said, "Everyone, get up."

"Su Fei, come here and let me take a look. You're about to give birth in a few days. Do you feel okay eating here? Are you feeling unwell?"

Su Mei came to the Queen Mother with the support of Xiao Cui. The Queen Mother touched her round belly lovingly and she smiled.

"Thank you, Her Majesty, for your concern. Everything is fine. The Imperial Hospital's physician examined me and said I'll be fine in a few days."

"Well, it is naturally their duty to take good care of you. You have worked hard to continue the royal bloodline, and you will naturally be rewarded when the emperor's grandson is born. A few days ago, the affairs of your grandfather and mother have been investigated clearly. The Su family favored concubines and killed wives, and they have been dealt with. You are a very good child, and you will definitely not be wronged." The Queen Mother looked at Su Mei with more loving eyes.

Right now, Su Mei is a treasure in her eyes, so naturally she is very precious to her.

Before, she thought that Su Mei's family background was a bit low, and she did think about letting the queen raise the emperor's grandson.

Now, with the relationship with the Zhan family, it would be most appropriate for this child to be raised by Su Mei.

All members of the Zhan family died on the battlefield, and now most of the generals in the army are former members of the Zhan family. This is a great help in consolidating the little prince's status.

Su Mei held her belly and bent her knees slightly, "Thank you, Queen Mother."

Everyone was very considerate and stood up to congratulate him.

"Congratulations, Madam Su."

"Thank you all sisters. Please feel free to sit down." Su Mei said lightly.

Everyone immediately agreed.

The queen did not stand up. She smiled and praised Concubine Su for being so lucky.

In fact, anyone with a discerning eye knows that all of this is just for the baby in Su Mei's belly.

But even if others were jealous, they couldn't snatch the baby from Su Mei's belly and put it in their own belly.

Concubine Rou did not come today. Her house arrest has not been lifted yet. The Empress Dowager did not want to see her and simply did not summon her.

Normally, she is the most noisy one, but she didn't come today, which made the birthday party seem much quieter.

The emperor drank celebratory wine with the soldiers in the outer courtyard and arrived a little late.

When he came in, the dishes for the birthday banquet had basically been arranged.

Everyone knelt down and saluted.

"Long live the emperor, long live the emperor, long live the emperor."

Qi Sihan was very happy tonight. The victory of this battle meant that there would be peace and prosperity in the next few years.

He saw Su Mei kneeling in the middle of the hall and walked over to her and helped her up.

"I told you that you are pregnant, so there is no need to kneel down and greet each other. Others are also exempt from the formalities."

Su Mei smiled and said, "That is the grace of the Emperor. Paying respects is the courtesy that a concubine should perform."

The emperor was very pleased with Su Mei's courtesy.

"Mei'er is respectful and docile, which is naturally beneficial to you." said the emperor.

After everyone sat down.

"I am late. I drank too much with the soldiers outside. Please forgive me, mother. Lai Fu, bring up my gift to you."

"It's okay. Comforting the soldiers on the front lines is the most important thing." The Queen Mother smiled kindly. "Besides, I have so many concubines here to keep me company, so I won't feel bored. In a few days, I will be able to see the little grandson, and I will be even happier."

"As long as your mother is happy," the emperor also smiled.

Lai Fu quickly brought up the emperor's gift, which was an extremely rare coral reef from the South China Sea.

"Coral has always been a symbol of fertility and happiness. This coral reef is rare, so my son gives it to my mother, hoping that she will have a long and blessed life." After saying this, the emperor asked Lai Fu to deliver the coral reef to the palace maid beside the empress dowager.

The Queen Mother was naturally delighted, smiling from ear to ear. She had not been blessed with a son, but fortunately this adopted son was filial.

Next, others presented birthday gifts to the Queen Mother.

The Queen sent a jade Guanyin statue. Although Concubine Rou did not come, she did send a pair of jade rhinoceros horn chopsticks to ward off poison. Su Mei sent a longevity quilt that she embroidered herself. Her embroidery skills were not good, but it was thanks to Xiao Cui's cleverness that she did it.

After the gifts were presented, the birthday banquet officially began.

The dishes for the birthday banquet had already been arranged, but at the last minute, the eunuch from the imperial kitchen brought Su Mei a bowl of pigeon soup.

"Pigeon soup, why isn't it on other people's tables?" Su Mei asked after taking a glance.

"Replying to Empress Su, the Imperial Hospital has instructed you to take more nourishing food these days, and they have sent some medicinal herbs to make pigeon soup for you." The young eunuch answered calmly.

"Is that so?" Su Mei said calmly, reaching out to lift the lid of the soup: "There are indeed quite a few medicinal herbs in it. You two are really thoughtful."
