Secrets of Yuqing Palace

After seeing the people leave, Princess Niuhulu looked at Qing'er, who was full of worry about her, and trust flashed in her eyes.

If it weren't for this girl's sudden inspiration and reminder to me and Ye Xiang, I'm afraid I wouldn't have known how I would have discovered I was pregnant.

she said softly.

"Qing'er, you just heard it too."

"I'm pregnant now and can't leave anyone by my side. I need your careful care."

"Besides Ye Xiang, the senior maidservant, the ones I trust the most are you and Xing'er, the two second-class maidservants."

"Now that I'm pregnant, I'll let Xing'er handle the things you're doing."

"You and Ye Xiang must work together to protect the baby in my belly."

"As long as this princess gives birth to a prince, you will be the first to achieve the credit!"

Qing'er expressed her loyalty with gratitude on her face and said, "Yes, Princess."

"This servant will take good care of the princess this time, and will not let her make any mistakes. I will make sure our little prince is born safely!"

Princess Niuhulu smiled and pulled out an exquisite hairpin from her head.

"I knew you were a good person."

"This is a reward from me, take it."

"When you get married in the future, it will also be your dowry."

Qing'er said sweetly, "Thank you, Gege."

.........

Since confirming her pregnancy, Wanyu has been resting and taking care of the baby in Yuqing Palace.

She doesn't have the energy to pay attention to the affairs of the previous dynasty now.

Anyway, she felt at ease leaving everything to Yinreng.

Besides, she couldn't help him in any way now. She could only try her best not to be a drag and give birth to the child smoothly. This would be the greatest help to him, the children, the second sister and the family.

Maybe God is helping them.

When Wanyu was five months pregnant, Cui Guangbai diagnosed that she was carrying twins!

However, the gender cannot be determined yet.

Because the fetus is still young, the gender can only be roughly determined if a more skilled judge or an imperial eunuch is asked to take her pulse.

Otherwise, it would take at least until June or July, when the fetal breathing becomes strong, for Cui Guangbai to be able to make a rough judgment.

However, due to the plan, the fewer people who knew about it, the better. So Wanyu and Yinreng discussed it and decided to wait until six or seven months before confirming it carefully.

And now everyone in the palace only knows that the Crown Princess is pregnant again, but except Cui Guangbai and the Crown Prince and his wife, no one knows that the Crown Princess is carrying twins in her belly.

After learning the news, Wanlin became more confident about the plan in her heart!

She arranged for Aunt Xitala, who was beside her, to tell Qing'er, who was beside Princess Niuhuru, that she could start hinting at Princess Niuhuru.

After Qing'er in Qiu Shui Garden received the message from her master, she was very surprised by what her master had ordered.

But she still followed the instructions carefully.

So that day, Qing'er supported Princess Nianhulu and took a walk in the backyard garden before carefully returning to Qiu Shui Garden.

"Master, are you tired?"

"I heard from Sister Ye Xiang that she asked the kitchen staff to specially prepare donkey-hide gelatin and bird's nest soup for the master."

"When we get back later, the master will be able to eat. The master has been very hard during the pregnancy, so it's a good time to nourish her."

"Master, if you eat this, not only will your body be better, but the little master in your belly will also be healthier."

Niu Hulu touched her four-month pregnant belly, her heart filled with sweetness and anticipation.

"You and Ye Xiang are both thoughtful."

Qing'er looked at Princess Nianhulu's pregnant belly.

"Gege Huai, the young master has worked hard, so I will take good care of her."

"Taking good care of the master and the little master in the belly is the duty of a servant. I do not deserve the master's praise."

Then she said with a hint of regret, "It's a pity that the master now only has eyes and heart for Jinglan Courtyard. The food and drinks there are much better than those in Qiushui Courtyard."

"I heard that the bird's nests eaten by Concubine Consort are all high-quality blood bird's nests."

"Hmph~ Our little brother is really wronged."

When Princess Niuhulu heard Qing'er's complaints, she knew that she was worried about her, but in fact she felt uncomfortable too.

So she didn't scold Qing'er, but just said softly: "I am just a little princess. Concubine Jin is not only favored by the master, but also has a high status, a powerful family, and the support of the Crown Princess in the palace."

"How can a little princess like me compare to that?"

"The Crown Princess in the palace was pregnant herself, yet she still frequently sent the maids and other servants out of the palace to give gifts to the Concubine."

"Don't say that again in the future. If someone with ulterior motives hears it and tells the master or the concubine about it, I'm afraid I won't be able to protect you even if I'm pregnant."

Qing'er looked at Princess Nianhulu with grievance, tears of heartache in her eyes, and she looked so pitiful that she was about to fall.

"Got it, Gege."

"This servant just...just feels sorry for the master and our little prince."

"It's only been a few days since you and Consort Jin confirmed your pregnancy."

"Nowadays, being pregnant at the same time makes such a big difference."

"If a little prince is born there in the future, our little prince will feel so wronged by the comparison with him."

After hearing this, Princess Niuhulu was stunned.

She unconsciously touched her belly.

【yes. 】

[The difference is so big now, what should I do with my children in the future...]

[I am not as good as the concubine. Will my children always be inferior to her children?]

Qing'er looked at Princess Nianhulu, who had her head slightly lowered and looked unhappy, and knew that she had taken her words to heart, so she didn't continue the topic.

Some things should just be said briefly; saying too much may arouse suspicion.

[If I give her a few more hints and reminders in the future, I'm afraid she'll become interested even if I don't say anything.]

After the master and servant carefully returned to Qiu Shui Garden, Ye Xiang and Xing'er were already waiting at the gate.

Ye Xiang noticed that her master's face was slightly pale, so she hurried over and supported her master's other arm.

"Master, why do you look so bad? Are you feeling unwell?"

"How about someone call the He family doctor to take the master's pulse?"

"Qing'er is really something. The master looks so bad, but you didn't bring him back earlier."

"If anything goes wrong between the master and the young prince, it will be because you are not serving them attentively!"

After complaining and scolding for a while and showing off in front of her master, she was about to send Xing'er to ask for the doctor from the He Mansion, but was stopped by Princess Nianhulu who had come to her senses.

"no need."

"It's none of Qing'er's business."

"It's just a little hot today. I just walked for a while and I'm tired."

"Okay, let's go back to the house."

Seeing that her master had no intention of scolding Qing'er, Ye Xiang secretly glared at Qing'er before responding in a low voice.

"Then I will help the master into the house."

"Xing'er just brought back the master's donkey-hide gelatin and bird's nest soup from the kitchen."

"The temperature is just right for the master now."

When Princess Niuhulu heard about the donkey-hide gelatin and bird's nest soup, she thought of what Qing'er had just said about the blood swallows used by the concubine of Jinglan Courtyard. She saw the bowl of soup made with ordinary white swallows on the table, and she felt a little uncomfortable, and her face showed a little discomfort.

Ye Xiang saw that her master looked unhappy and asked cautiously.

"What happened, Master?"

Princess Niuhulu shook her head slightly.

"fine."

"I don't have much of an appetite right now. Let's use it later."

Ye Xiang looked embarrassed, but Qing'er immediately said, "Master, you are pregnant with a little prince now."

"We can't let the little prince starve."

"Otherwise, when the little prince comes out of the master's belly, I'm afraid he will quarrel with the master."

When Princess Niuhulu heard Qing'er calling him "little prince", her unhappiness eased a little.

"You're a mean-spirited person."

Qing'er took the initiative to pick up the donkey-hide gelatin and bird's nest soup on the table and presented it to Princess Nianhulu.

"Master, please try it."

"We've been walking in the garden for so long. Even if the master isn't hungry, the little prince is hungry too."

Being praised and commended by Qing'er, Princess Niuhulu finished the bowl of donkey-hide gelatin and bird's nest soup as she wished.

Ye Xiang glared awkwardly at Qing'er who was being very attentive in front of her master.

(Hey guys, today I am going off topic. I just want to tell you that the update time and number of chapters in the future will be uncertain.

Actually, this book was cut off last month due to poor data. However, I saw that some people have been following it, and everyone's likes are my motivation, so I didn't finish the book directly. I am still preparing to finish it according to my outline.

It was only yesterday that I suddenly realized that since all my books had been cut, I didn't have to stick to the rule of updating two chapters every day.

So now, once Orange has finished writing a chapter, he'll update it immediately on the platform. He won't deliberately schedule an update for the next morning. So, the update schedule is now unpredictable. Even when updating chapters, it might be two, or if the writing goes smoothly, three. But he will maintain a daily update of at least two chapters.

In fact, this book is nearing its end. I hope it can be updated and finished sooner.

Thank you for your love and support~)
