A Crossover of Film and Television: Miao Miao's Life Transmigration

After Liu Jingyao returned to Changchun Palace, she rested in bed and had just finished lunch when she received a reward from the Emperor: 100 taels of silver and some fabric suitable for her.

Liu Jingyao deliberately tried to bump into the Emperor to arouse his suspicion. He would probably investigate her and give her the opportunity to serve him in bed, but it's uncertain whether she will do so again.

She didn't know that the Emperor had rarely visited the inner palace in recent years, and that a major event was about to occur in the court: the Qing army would be defeated by the Dzungars, at which point the Emperor would definitely be busy with important military matters in the court.

With the Emperor busy with affairs of the court, he had no opportunity to enter the inner palace, and Liu Jingyao's life returned to normal. However, there were some changes, as several junior concubines and maids came to visit her.

That day, Liu Jingyao was strolling in the Imperial Garden when she encountered a beautiful woman with a graceful figure.

Liu Jingyao quickly bowed and said, "Greetings to Consort Ning!"

Consort Ning glanced at Liu Jingyao and said calmly, "No need for formalities, please rise." Then, Consort Ning, supported by a palace maid, slowly left.

Watching Consort Ning's departing figure, Liu Jingyao sighed, "No wonder she deserves to be a consort."

As is well known, Emperor Yongzheng only had a few concubines with ranks of concubine or higher in the harem: Consort Nian, Consort Xi, Consort Yu, Consort Qi, Consort Ning (currently still Consort Ning), Consort Mao, and the others were Noble Lady, Attendant, and Lady-in-Waiting.

For the past two months, Liu Jingyao has stayed quietly in the inner palace. She usually goes to pay her respects, but because she is a minor concubine, she rarely sees the Empress. She just bows outside the Chuxiu Palace and strolls around the Imperial Garden when no one is around, so she doesn't attract attention.

Two months passed quickly, and today was the day the imperial physicians would take the pulses of all the ladies. Liu Jingyao sat in a chair; she was already pregnant.

Liu Jingyao silently opened the interface.

【Aisin Gioro Yinzhen】

Lifespan: 4 years and 4 months

[The only way to extend one's lifespan is to have more children with Yinzhen.]

Liu Jingyao frowned as she looked at the Emperor's lifespan and sighed. Once she gave birth to this child, the Emperor's lifespan would be extended by two years. Thinking about it, there was still hope for the future. She hoped that the Emperor could live a few more years until her child grew up.

Liu Jingyao didn't feel too uncomfortable. As expected of a product of the system, she silently closed the system interface.

At this moment, Xinyue entered the inner room, bowed, and said, "Your Highness, Physician Lin is waiting outside."

Liu Jingyao said calmly, "Yes, let Physician Lin in!"

Next, Xinyue welcomed Physician Lin in.

Physician Lin was an elderly physician, about fifty years old.

Physician Lin entered and bowed to Liu Jingyao, saying, "Greetings to Lady Liu!"

Liu Jingyao said gently, "Get up, no need for formalities!"

Physician Lin stood up and said, "Thank you, Your Highness."

When Physician Lin took Liu Jingyao's pulse, he frowned during the first pulse diagnosis, and then, as if unsure, took her pulse several more times.

Finally, Physician Lin confirmed it. With a smile, he respectfully said to Liu Jingyao, "Congratulations, Your Highness! You are two months pregnant."

Liu Jingyao's face lit up with surprise. She seemed stunned for a moment before asking uncertainly, "Doctor Lin, really?"

Xinyue, standing to the side, asked nervously, "Imperial Physician Lin, is the young lady really pregnant with the emperor's child?"

Imperial Physician Lin nodded respectfully and said, "It is true. Congratulations, Your Highness."

New Moon exclaimed excitedly, "Congratulations, Your Highness! Congratulations, Your Highness!"

Afterwards, Physician Lin gave them a prescription for preventing miscarriage and explained the necessary precautions. Xinyue and Keqing diligently learned the techniques for preventing miscarriage.

After seeing off Physician Lin, Xinyue and Keqing were both happy for Liu Jingyao and chattered on and on.

Xinyue followed Liu Jingyao in, and at this moment she was genuinely happy for Liu Jingyao: "My lady, this is wonderful. With the little prince, my lady will have someone to rely on for the rest of her life."

Ke Qing also bowed her hands toward the sky and said, "Yes, yes, it's truly a blessing from heaven!"

After they finished speaking, Liu Jingyao gently instructed, "Xinyue, go and tell the Empress about the pregnancy. Keqing, follow the instructions of Physician Lin to arrange the Chunyue Hall."

Xinyue nodded and said, "Yes, this servant will go and report to Her Majesty the Empress right away."

Ke Qing quickly helped Liu Jingyao sit down and said, "My lady, please sit here first. I will take care of the matter right away."

……

In the Chuxiu Palace.

Nanny Zhu strode in, bowed to the Empress, and said, "Your Majesty, Xinyue, the maidservant of Consort Liu in Changchun Palace, just came to report that Consort Liu is two months pregnant with the Emperor's child."

Upon hearing this, the Empress said happily, "His Majesty has been on the throne for many years, and now there is finally a concubine in the harem who is pregnant. This is a great joy. Jiang Haifu, you should go to the Hall of Mental Cultivation to report to His Majesty."

The Empress gave some more detailed instructions, emphasizing that no matter what, Consort Liu must safely give birth to the imperial heir.

For so many years, no good news has come from the harem. People outside think that I am jealous and prevent the birth of imperial offspring.

……

Outside the Yangxin Hall.

Upon seeing Jiang Haifu beside the Empress, Su Peisheng quickly stepped forward and asked, "Eunuch Jiang, did Her Majesty the Empress have any instructions?"

Jiang Haifu said with a smile, "Eunuch Su, great news! Just now, news came from Consort Liu in Changchun Palace that she is two months pregnant with the Emperor's child. As soon as the Empress received the news, she immediately sent me to report to the Emperor."

Su Peisheng quickly said, "Eunuch Jiang, I will go and report to the Emperor right away. Please wait here for a while."

Then Su Peisheng jogged into the Hall of Mental Cultivation and excitedly said, "Your Majesty, great news! Great news!"

The Emperor was reviewing memorials when he heard Su Peisheng's words. He didn't look up and continued reviewing the memorials: "Su Peisheng, what brings you this joy?"

Su Peisheng replied, "Your Majesty, it was Jiang Haifu, the Empress's attendant, who came to say that Consort Liu of Changchun Palace is two months pregnant."

The Emperor paused in reviewing the memorials, raised his head, and said, "Indeed, who took the pulse? Bring Jiang Haifu in, and also the imperial physician who took Liu Ying's pulse, please bring them in as well."

Su Peisheng replied respectfully, "This servant will go immediately."

Having just received the news, he immediately sent his young apprentice to inquire which imperial physician had examined Jiang Fuhai's pulse, and he has already gone to invite him.

After some thought, the Emperor recalled the difficulties he faced when he first ascended the throne, how he dealt with his brothers, and how his third son had passed away a few years earlier. Now, he only had two surviving children.

Countless people in the previous dynasty talked about him behind his back, but he didn't care. These were not problems. The previous dynasty had so many things to deal with, how could he have time to deal with these private rumors?

The Emperor knew that his health was not good and it was not conducive to having children. After ascending the throne, he had many imperial physicians examine him, but to no avail. After ascending the throne, he also often visited the palaces of his concubines, but unfortunately none of them conceived. Fortunately, after the Fourth Prince and the Fifth Prince got married, they had several grandsons. In recent years, he has gradually been able to recuperate.

Now that they've found out Liu is pregnant, he's naturally happy.

Su Peisheng arrived outside the hall, and soon after, Imperial Physician Lin arrived at the Hall of Mental Cultivation.
