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

Chapter 59 The Transmigration of Consort Qian, Liu Jingyao (13)

Since Liu Jingyao became pregnant again, all eyes in the harem have turned to her. Unfortunately, all the conspiracies and schemes were thwarted by the Emperor.

Before you knew it, Liu Jingyao was already five months pregnant. It's worth mentioning that another concubine in the harem was pregnant, Consort Gu, who was already a month and a half along.

The news of Consort Gu's pregnancy caused quite a stir, and the concubines in the harem even changed their tea sets.

As if he had figured something out, the Emperor bestowed the title of Beile upon the Fourth Prince and the Fifth Prince, ordering them to leave the palace and establish their own residences.

Liu Jingyao was very surprised when she received this news. It was only the tenth year of Yongzheng's reign, and the Fourth Prince was clearly conferred the title of Prince Bao of the First Rank in the eleventh year of Yongzheng's reign. It was precisely because of this that the Fourth Prince became the hidden Crown Prince, and the Emperor even allowed the Fourth Prince to live in the palace all the time.

The Fourth Prince was the Crown Prince whom the Emperor had always tacitly approved. After all, in the eighth year of Yongzheng's reign, the Fourth Prince's legitimate son was born, and the Emperor bestowed upon him the name Yonglian, which is a very meaningful character.

In recent years, the Emperor has been intentionally grooming the Fourth Prince. Now, the Emperor has made a brilliant move, and even the ministers of the previous court do not understand the Emperor's intention.

Liu Jingyao guessed that perhaps the Emperor had discovered the Fourth Prince's underhanded actions, or the actions of his people. Now that the Emperor felt he was in good health and thought he could live a long time, he ordered the Fourth Prince and the Fifth Prince to move out of the palace.

However, this would likely displease Consort Xi and Consort Yu. Since the birth of the Sixth Prince Hongzhan, the Emperor has doted on this youngest son. Now, the Sixth Prince is the only prince living in the palace, but Liu Jingyao doesn't care. She came here specifically for that position.

The enemy's mistake will only strengthen the Sixth Prince's position in the Emperor's heart. As long as the Emperor doesn't do anything reckless like taking some kind of elixir, he will definitely live to be 78 years old. After all, the Fourth Prince lived to be 89, so it's not impossible for Yongzheng to live to be 78. It's within the normal range.

That day, Liu Jingyao sat on the couch, playing chess by herself. Because she was pregnant, Xinyue and the others wouldn't let her do embroidery, so she could only pass the time by playing chess.

Xinyue entered the inner room and bowed, saying, "Your Majesty, Physician Li has come to take your pulse."

Since Liu Jingyao became pregnant again, the skylight has been completely renovated, giving it a fresh and elegant feel, and many flowers and plants have been placed around it.

Liu Jingyao put down the chess piece in her hand and slowly stood up. Ke Qing quickly helped Liu Jingyao up. Liu Jingyao was pregnant with twins. Her five-month belly looked like that of a seven or eight-month pregnant woman. The imperial physician had not yet diagnosed twins, and Xinyue and the others did not know either. So Xinyue and the others thought that Liu Jingyao was being taken care of too well, and the nanny wanted to adjust her diet.

Liu Jingyao walked to a chair and sat down, instructing Xinyue to let Physician Li in.

After bowing, Physician Li slowly took Liu Jingyao's pulse, his expression becoming serious.

Granny Sun, Granny Zhang, and Xinyue dared not disturb Physician Li during his pulse diagnosis. Seeing the solemn expression on Physician Li's face, they showed worry.

After pondering for a while, Physician Li finally lowered his hand and said to Liu Jingyao, "Your Majesty, it seems you are pregnant with twins!"

Liu Jingyao asked in shock, "Is what Physician Li said true?"

Physician Li's face was solemn. In this era, pregnancy and childbirth were already a life-or-death ordeal for women. Now that Consort Qian was suspected of being pregnant with twins, it was a double threat. He dared not delay.

Physician Li said solemnly, "This humble servant's medical skills are not proficient, and I need to explain to His Majesty so that His Majesty can send a more skilled physician to confirm."

Liu Jingyao hurriedly asked Xiao Xiazi to escort Physician Li. Physician Li dared not delay and went to find the Emperor as soon as it was light.

Seeing Liu Jingyao's surprised expression, Granny Sun worried that Liu Jingyao might panic and comforted her, "Your Majesty, there's no need to be nervous. Although twins are rare in the royal family, twins are not uncommon among commoners. His Majesty will definitely protect Your Majesty and the princes. Your Majesty just needs to wait quietly for His Majesty's arrangements and there's no need to be too anxious."

Liu Jingyao came to her senses and said, "Thank you, Granny Sun. Of course I trust His Majesty. You may all leave now. I am a little tired."

"Yes, madam!"

Inside the Nine Continents Pure Banquet Hall.

Physician Li said he had something important to report, so Su Peisheng quickly led him in.

Inside the palace, a faint scent of ambergris filled the air. The emperor, dressed in casual clothes, stood before an exquisite dragon-shaped desk, which was made of gold and decorated with a nine-clawed golden dragon.

Looking at the dignified and imposing Emperor, Physician Li began to sweat. He knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, when I examined Consort Qian's pulse this time, I discovered that Consort Qian may be pregnant with twins."

The Emperor put down his vermilion brush, looked up, and asked, "Is this confirmed?"

This matter concerns the imperial heir, so Imperial Physician Li dared not guarantee it. He quickly replied, "Your Majesty's medical skills are not proficient. Perhaps Your Majesty should have several more imperial physicians examine Consort Qian's pulse to confirm the diagnosis."

The Emperor ordered Su Peisheng to take the head physician of the Imperial Medical Academy, Physician Wang, to examine Consort Qian's pulse. Physician Wang had been with him since the time he was born and was extremely loyal to him, so there was no concern about leaking information. Moreover, Physician Wang was a highly skilled physician.

Su Peisheng took Physician Wang to Shangxia Tianguang and then brought Physician Wang into the palace.

The Emperor learned from Imperial Physician Wang that Consort Qian was indeed pregnant with twins.

The Emperor twirled his thumb ring, and after careful consideration, said to Imperial Physician Wang and Imperial Physician Li, "I will entrust the care of Consort Qian's pregnancy to the two of you. This pregnancy is very important, and the matter of twins must not be spread. Su Peisheng, go and make arrangements with the people in Shangxia Tianguang. From now on, Shangxia Tianguang will be closed to the public."

Su Peisheng, Physician Wang, and Physician Li responded in succession and then went out.

The Emperor sat on the dragon throne, deep in thought. He had previously ordered the Imperial Observatory to investigate Consort Qian, and everything was normal. However, recalling the words of the Imperial Observatory, Consort Qian was a variable. She could not only revitalize the Qing Dynasty but also enhance the destiny of the Emperor Star, making her an extremely noble destiny.

From the moment the Emperor learned of this news, he ordered the Imperial Observatory to keep quiet and increased the number of people secretly protecting Consort Qian.

After Consort Qian entered the palace, good news came from both the court and the harem. The reforms in the court were progressing smoothly, Consort Qian gave birth to the Sixth Prince, followed by Consort Ning giving birth to the Fifth Princess. Now Consort Qian is pregnant with twins, and Consort Gu is also pregnant with the Emperor's child.

The Emperor twirled his thumb ring, murmuring, "This pregnancy is an auspicious sign; the baby must be born safely." His eyes seemed to be gazing into the distance, yet upon closer inspection, they appeared unfocused.

The Emperor gestured to someone in the shadows and ordered, "Find two palace maids, one who knows martial arts and the other who knows medicine. From today onwards, have them serve Consort Qian and protect her safety."

The man from the sticky pole came down from the roof beam and respectfully said, "Yes, sir!"

The Emperor waved his hand, dismissing them.

At this moment, Su Peisheng, accompanied by Imperial Physician Wang and Imperial Physician Li, came to pay their respects to Liu Jingyao and announced the Emperor's decree. First, Imperial Physician Wang and Imperial Physician Li were to be responsible for Consort Qian's pregnancy. Second, the servants of Shangxia Tianguang were given a warning. Third, from this day forward, Shangxia Tianguang would be closed, with only a small gate open for entry and exit, guarded by personnel arranged by the Emperor.
