The queen is crazy and spoiled, and the tyrant bows to her

Ji Wuyuan narrowed his eyes slightly, and a cold and bloodthirsty smile appeared at the corner of his lips.

The news of Concubine Qi's pregnancy spread like wildfire, causing an uproar in the harem.

This is the first child born to His Majesty since he ascended the throne, and the meaning is self-evident.

Now, all the concubines in the harem could no longer sit still.

Even the direction of the previous dynasty has changed.

If Concubine Qi gave birth to the emperor's eldest son, wouldn't the Qi family be at its peak of prosperity in the future?

Changle Palace.

Jiang Wantang and Yun Shang were sitting in the courtyard drinking tea when Xiuzhu hurried in, "Miss! Miss..."

She was gasping for breath and her words were incoherent.

Jiang Wantang poured her a glass of water and said with a faint smile, "What's the hurry?"

"Drink some water first."

Xiuzhu took the cup and drank it all in one gulp, saying, "Qi... Concubine Qi is pregnant..."

Yun Shang was shocked when she heard this and looked at Jiang Wantang who was also a little surprised: "Sister..."

"Pregnant?" Jiang Wantang frowned and repeated this sentence with a complicated expression on her face.

Not to mention that Ji Wuyuan could not possibly make her pregnant, besides, Concubine Qi had been silent for such a long time, and she had fainted at this time instead of earlier or later, and was diagnosed with pregnancy by the imperial physician.

This matter seems strange no matter how you look at it.

Whether it is true or false depends on Ji Wuyuan's attitude.

No wonder Concubine Qi has been so quiet since she was confined to her room. It turns out she is secretly doing something big!

No wonder Empress Dowager Qi remained fearless even when facing death...

Thinking of this, Jiang Wantang curled his lips and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

Xiuzhu was confused and asked, "Girl, how can you still laugh?"

"What if Concubine Qi, because of her son's status, wins the favor of His Majesty? What will you do then?"

Jiang Wantang still smiled nonchalantly: "So what?"

"Isn't it just a matter of time?"

"What this harem lacks the least is women. If it's not her, there will be someone else."

As soon as she finished speaking, Ji Wuyuan, who was walking to the door, stopped and clenched his fists.

He was originally worried that Jiang Wantang would be unhappy after hearing that Concubine Qi was pregnant, so he came to see her and wanted to explain to her.

But the fact is, not only did she not care, she even laughed.

Haha..., if it's not her, then it will be someone else?

This is what she really means.

He tried hard to hold back and control his emotions.

Wang Fuhai, who was standing by, had a bad feeling and looked up quietly.

Ji Wuyuan's originally gentle expression gradually turned gloomy, and the warmth in his eyes disappeared in an instant, replaced by a bone-chilling sinisterness.

It’s over… it’s over!

Sure enough, the next moment Ji Wuyuan turned around and strode away without looking back.

Ji Wuyuan didn't let the palace servants inform him, so Jiang Wantang in the courtyard suddenly didn't notice.

She continued, "No matter who we are, we just need to live our own lives."

Yunshang and Xiuzhu nodded.

……

Concubine Qi was pregnant, and many of the concubines in the palace, unable to sit still, brought gifts and went to visit her, either to investigate her or to curry favor with her...

Even Bai Weiwei, who was always calm, couldn't help but go to Chonghua Palace to visit.

In Chonghua Palace, Concubine Qi was lazily leaning on the beauty couch. She was wearing a smoky purple gauze long dress, and her skirt spread out gently like clouds and mist.

Everyone only saw that her face was rosy, her complexion was very good, and she had become a lot rounder. One hand was gently placed on her slightly bulging belly, and there were several exquisite gem rings on her fingers. She looked as if she had been reborn, exquisite and luxurious.

Not only that, there was a gentle smile in the corners of Concubine Qi's eyes and eyebrows, and her whole body exuded a soft maternal glow.

When Bai Weiwei came over, she saw such a peaceful scene, and she tightened the embroidered handkerchief in her hand.

The room was filled with concubines from various palaces. They all came to congratulate Concubine Qi, but they were very jealous in their hearts.

Although Concubine Qi was very happy, she was still unsure as there was no movement from Ji Wuyuan.

Logically speaking, even if His Majesty was busy with official duties, he should have sent someone to express his regards, but no, from beginning to end, there was no movement at all.

At the beginning, Concubine Qi could still deal with the concubines with a smile, but in the end she lost interest and was too lazy to even speak.

Without Ji Wuyuan saying anything, she felt like she was performing a one-man show, and she couldn't get the satisfaction she wanted.

Concubine Qi waited and waited, and finally saw Ji Wuyuan's arrival in the evening.

The man was wearing a black and gold dragon robe, with a tall and graceful figure and a handsome face, just like what she had imagined countless times.

Concubine Qi hadn't seen him for a long time. When she saw him for the first time, her eyes were filled with moisture.

Fortunately, she finally waited for it.

Finally, the hardship is over and the happiness is coming.

However, the next moment, when she saw the expression on Ji Wuyuan's face, her heart suddenly skipped a beat and she had a very bad premonition.

He stared at her deeply, no, to be more precise, he stared at her bulging belly.

Although it was already summer, the man exuded a bone-chilling coldness.

Concubine Qi shivered from the cold and subconsciously covered her lower abdomen with her hands.

Ji Wuyuan looked at her doubtful face and smiled, his lips curled up, but his smile was tinged with hostility: "Pregnant?"

Concubine Qi forced a smile and said, "Yes, this is your majesty's first child. I dare not neglect it."

Ji Wuyuan sneered: "An orphan child?"

"Is your Majesty sure?"

Concubine Qi's pupils shrank sharply, and a cold sweat broke out on her back, but she could only pretend to be calm and said, "Your Majesty, don't you believe me?"

As she spoke, she clutched her stomach, knelt on the ground, and bit her lip tightly, looking like she had suffered a great deal of grievance. "I know that I have acted recklessly before and have made Your Majesty unhappy, but during this period of confinement, I have sincerely repented..."

"Your Majesty, please give me another chance for the sake of our child. This time, I will definitely not disappoint Your Majesty."

Ji Wuyuan suddenly stopped smiling and looked at her expressionlessly.

The feeling he gives people is very different when he smiles and when he doesn't smile.

When he smiles, it's chilling; when he doesn't smile, it's like looking at a dead person, with no expression on his face.

It was only then that Concubine Qi realized something was wrong. Just as she was about to speak, she heard Ji Wuyuan's cold and oppressive voice, with a chilling tone that made people tremble unconsciously: "Dare to confuse the royal bloodline? Are you seeking death?"

"Or do you think the lives of the nine members of your Qi family are too long?"

The light tone of voice made Concubine Qi collapse to the ground instantly, trembling all over.

Concubine Qi fell to the ground, tears streaming down her face uncontrollably. She looked at Ji Wuyuan in fear and trepidation, "I... dare not. I didn't do that!"

"Even if Your Majesty doesn't want to acknowledge this child, it doesn't change the fact that he is your child..."

Ji Wuyuan's expression instantly darkened. He looked at her coldly, his tone extremely cruel: "With your strength, are you worthy of bearing an orphan's child?"

"Do you think I will really touch you?"

In an instant, all the color drained from Concubine Qi's face.

She shook her head, trembling all over, and looked at him in disbelief: "Impossible!"

"Your Majesty has clearly favored me... and not just once!"

Concubine Qi shook her head desperately, she didn't believe it.

He must be lying to her!

The love and affection they once shared... couldn't be fake!

If it weren't for these sweet memories, she wouldn't have been able to get to this point.
