The Rebirth of Li Fei: The Strongest Palace Fighting System

I was actually pregnant.

This sudden good news filled me with a mixture of surprise and joy.

Thinking back to my previous life, I blindly followed the Queen's orders, took the so-called "powerful prescription", and forced myself to get pregnant, but I already knew in my heart that the child would not be saved.

And now, in this new life, I was able to become pregnant with a Dragonborn again so quickly. This happiness came so suddenly, it was a miracle that I had never dared to imagine before.

The reactions of the people around were different, especially the Queen. Her face, which usually wore a decent smile, had lost its color, which was unusual at this moment. She was so surprised that she was speechless for a long time.

This sudden good news must have caused a huge uproar in her heart. She has always regarded the pregnancy of concubines as a taboo. I am afraid that at this moment, she is entangled in an indescribable jealousy and anger, and her mood is extremely complicated.

As the Queen's forced smile gradually faded, she took several deep breaths, as if trying to calm the turmoil in her heart.

"That's wonderful, Sister An! It's been a long time since this palace has had such a joyous occasion. It's truly a triple blessing! I must quickly congratulate the Emperor."

After saying that, her gaze lingered on me for a moment. The look in her eyes was complex and difficult to read, but was quickly replaced by tenderness.

I raised my eyes slightly:

"I am truly grateful for your kindness, Your Majesty. This pregnancy is truly a gift from Heaven. I will be extremely careful to preserve the Dragonborn and live up to the grace of Your Majesty and the Emperor."

The Queen nodded slightly, her tone becoming even more intimate:

"Sister An is indeed sensible. I know that you are a blessed person. If you need anything in the future, please feel free to ask. I will do my best to help you."

I bowed slightly, with a hint of determination in my humility:

"Thank you for your grace, Your Majesty. If I need anything, I will not hesitate to hide anything from you. There are many things I don't understand, and I hope Your Majesty will be willing to teach me so that I can get through this period smoothly."

Upon hearing this, the Queen's lips curled up into a barely perceptible smile, which held a profound meaning.

"You are so polite, my dear sister. I will teach you everything I know. I remember that when I was pregnant, it was not easy for me either. Now that my sister has this blessing, I am very pleased."

"I will remember your Majesty's teachings and carefully nurture this child, hoping to give Your Majesty a healthy and intelligent prince or princess."

Xiaotao was standing by, and although others couldn't notice her presence, she was so excited that she almost jumped up, her eyes full of longing and joy for the future, as if she was silently protecting me and the unborn child in her own way.

After the Queen and I spoke, the Queen Mother also smiled, a rare smile, her eyes filled with love and expectation:

"Concubine An is pregnant. This is a great joy. I am truly delighted. The Emperor's abundant offspring are the foundation of the nation. I look forward to having many more grandchildren."

The Queen replied at the right moment, with a proper smile on her face:

"The Queen Mother is absolutely right. I am also happy for Sister Anfei. It is wonderful to have another touch of joy in the palace."

The Queen Mother nodded, then turned her gaze towards me, her tone filled with concern.

"Concubine An, you must take good care of yourself and give birth to a healthy child for the emperor."

I bowed, with gratitude in my voice:

"I thank the Empress Dowager for her concern. I will do my best to live up to the expectations of the Empress Dowager and the Emperor."

Then, the Queen Mother changed the subject and looked at the Queen, her tone carrying a bit of majesty:

"According to the rules, Concubine Fucha's previous pregnancy was taken care of by Concubine Xin, who is also from the Chuxiu Palace. So, what arrangements does the Queen plan to make for Concubine Wan and Concubine An's pregnancies?"

Upon hearing this, the Queen frowned slightly, as if she was thinking deeply:

"I believe this matter requires further consideration. The palace is rife with affairs, and careful consideration is needed to arrive at the most appropriate arrangements. However, this great event must be promptly announced to His Majesty, allowing him to share in the joy."

The Queen Mother nodded with satisfaction, her eyes gleaming with wisdom:

"What the Queen said makes sense. Tell the Emperor quickly. He will be very happy to hear the news."

The queen accepted the order with a proper smile on her face, as if she had already thought out the next arrangements in her mind.

......

Back at the Yanxi Palace, Xiaotao was beside me, her face full of joy:

"Your Majesty, in this life, we have been so lucky. You have reached the position of Concubine so quickly, and I have slept with you many more times than in my previous life. Furthermore, Your Majesty has been taking Dong'e Ejiao to nourish your body, so it is only natural that you are pregnant so early. This is truly a great joyous event. Congratulations, Your Majesty!"

I gently stroked my belly, feeling the unprecedented joy and responsibility, and smiled.

"Yes, Xiaotao, none of this came easily. We must cherish it and keep working hard."

However, despite my joy, I couldn't help but feel a little doubtful:

"What happened today is really strange. Concubine Fucha was pounced on by a cat, and I don't know who is behind this. It's really hard to guard against it in this palace."

Xiao Tao also looked serious when she heard this:

"Yes, Your Majesty, fortunately we were prepared in advance, otherwise if that cat really hurt Concubine Fucha, we would be really finished. But, Your Majesty, who do you think is behind this?"

I pondered for a moment, and I had some guesses in my mind, but I still needed further confirmation:

"Xiao Tao, please ask the oleander elf and see if it can help us find out who is behind this."

Xiao Tao nodded immediately, closed her eyes, and began to communicate with the oleander spirit. After a while, she opened her eyes and a look of sudden enlightenment appeared on her face:

"Your Majesty, the oleander elf said that this incident was caused by Aunt Jianqiu who is beside the Queen."

After hearing this, I sneered in my heart, Queen, oh Queen, you can't hold back after all and start to attack me?

But this time, I will never let you succeed again.

......

At dawn the next day, the palace walls were already bustling with activity. I was sipping tea in the hall, whispering with Xiaotao about our various speculations about yesterday's events, when I suddenly heard brisk footsteps outside the door, followed by Su Peisheng's distinctive shrill voice:

"Good luck to Her Majesty An. Your servant Su Peisheng has come to congratulate Her Majesty on your pregnancy."

I put down my teacup and smiled.

Su Peisheng stepped into the hall and respectfully performed the ritual of three kneelings and nine kowtows. His movements were smooth and standard, fully demonstrating his court sophistication.

"Eunuch Su, please don't be polite,"

I said softly, with a bit of inquiry in my eyes:

"Eunuch, what is the emperor's order for you to come here?"

Su Peisheng stood up, his face full of smiles, his eyes sparkling:
