Zhu Yixiu is reborn in Ruyi's Royal Love in the Palace and single-handedly kills her way throug

"Yes, thank you, Queen."

Seeing that De Guiren used a piece, Qingying shook the round fan in her hand as if unintentionally.

"You came at an unfortunate time. The Emperor left just before you arrived. Otherwise, you would have heard some good news."

"Good news? I'm all ears."

"Perhaps, the harem will have another child."

De Guiren immediately showed a look of joy.

"Is the Empress pregnant? Then this concubine would like to congratulate Her Majesty."

Qingying laughed.

"I am old, so how can I bear children? The one who is pregnant this time is a newcomer who entered the palace with you."

De Guiren's expression changed again, and he became a little stiff.

She forced a smile and said, "I'm sorry for being abrupt, but it's really a good thing. I just don't know which sister it is..."

"Noble Lady Zhao is so lucky! She is the first among the newlyweds to be pregnant."

"Sister, you don't know, but the first one is always the most eye-catching, just like my eldest prince. Sister, don't you think that's a blessing?"

"The concubine is right before our eyes."

Qingying's voice remained unchanged, but it made Deguiren feel a little strange.

"Your Majesty, the gender of Concubine Zhao's child is still unknown, and no matter what, it is impossible for it to surpass the eldest prince. How can you compare her child with the eldest prince?"

"I heard that when the eldest prince entered school, he was often praised by the teacher."

The movement of waving the round fan stopped.

"But if we're talking about closeness, I'd rather you get pregnant first."

The noble man looked bitter.

"Thank you, Queen, but I'm unlucky and can't get pregnant first..."

Before De Guiren could finish her words, she was interrupted by Qingying.

"Although this blessing is largely determined by heaven, how can we say that it is completely beyond human control?"

"Empress?..."

"Well, I'm tired after all this talk. Go back and sort out the things in the garden. I'll personally review them later."

Without giving it much thought, De Guiren quickly stood up and knelt again.

"Yes, then I will not disturb the Queen from resting. I will take my leave."

"Go."

Leaving Jingren Palace.

De Guiren's hand holding Bao Lian became a little tighter.

Noticing something strange about Noble Lady De, Bao Lian turned around and looked around. Apart from the master and servant, there was no one else on the palace road.

After pondering silently for a moment, Bao Lian said, "My lady, what's wrong with you?"

De Guiren was brought back to his senses by the other party's shout.

His eyes flashed.

She replied, "Baolian, you said I've been favored for quite some time, so why is there no movement in my belly?"

"My lady, this pregnancy is destined by heaven. Don't worry. You are still young and favored. Are you still worried about not getting pregnant one day?"

"Being favored and young...but these are the things you can't hold on to."

"Other people's births are a thousand times nobler than mine. Could it be that their fortunes are also a thousand times better than mine?"

Bao Lian seemed puzzled. "My dear, who are you talking about?"

"Noble Lady Zhao, Noble Lady Zhao is pregnant. She is from the Niuhuru clan and has lived a life of luxury since childhood. She is truly not comparable to a daughter of a poor family like me."

"My lady, please don't say that. No matter what your background is, once you enter the palace, isn't it all about the emperor's favor? No matter how noble you are outside the palace, if you are not favored, you are still inferior to others."

Bao Lian continued in a slow voice, "My young master, you see that Fu Cha is the Empress's cousin. She was a noble lady when she entered the palace. The Fu Cha clan is no less powerful than Noble Lady Zhao's Niu Hulu clan. Yet, hasn't she been banished to the cold palace?"

"So in my opinion, the young lady is the lucky one!"

De Guiren laughed, "You are always good at comforting me."

As soon as he finished speaking, a hint of cruelty flashed in his eyes, but it disappeared in an instant.

...

The news of going to the Old Summer Palace to escape the summer heat soon spread throughout the six palaces in the east and west.

Those who can go are happy, and those who can't go don't dare to complain openly.

However, Concubine Ling heard that Qingying spoke up for her in front of the Emperor.

So I went there again and expressed my gratitude profusely.

The day to go to the garden was set for June 15th.

Early that morning, the Meridian Gate opened.

More than twenty carriages slowly left the Forbidden City one after another.
