He Yingchun and Zhou Yujiao looked at Jiang Licui with all their eyes. Jiang Licui, who was frightened by the strange eyes of the two people, did not find anything inappropriate or wrong in her words. She said, "I didn't say anything wrong, everything I said was correct."

It's just the truth, why are none of us pregnant, but Liang Fengyi is pregnant?" she asked.

"Why?" He Yingchun and Zhou Yujiao asked in unison.

Jiang Licui looked at the curious expressions of the two people and replied, "How do I understand?"

The two of them were greatly disappointed when they heard Jiang Licui's answer. They thought Jiang Licui knew something inside, but they didn't expect it to be just unfounded speculation and curiosity.

"If we say that we are not pregnant, it's because we don't have bed attendants. Then the Queen Empress has half of the bed attendants a month. Logically speaking, the Queen Mother has a greater chance of becoming pregnant than Liang Fengyi? Why is the Queen Empress not pregnant? Liang Fengyi is pregnant.

On?" Jiang Licui continued to express the doubts in her heart.

The speaker may not have meant it, but it sounded like he meant it. He Yingchun listened to Jiang Licui’s words.

It entered my ears and my heart. There were so many concubines in the entire harem, but none of them were pregnant. Only Liang Fengyi seemed to be pregnant.

He Yingchun became concerned about Liang Fengyi's pregnancy, and she felt that Liang Fengyi must have played some trick.

Liang Fengyi was lying on Ye Wange's phoenix couch. It wasn't until she drank the decoction and rested for a while that she felt refreshed. Then she got up and said she wanted to go back to her Changle Palace.

"Are you feeling better? If not, don't force yourself to go back and rest for a while." Ye Wange looked at Liang Fengyi and asked.

Liang Fengyi said in a low voice like a kitten meowing, "Much better.

It's causing trouble for the Queen.

Thank you, empress."

Ye Wange frowned slightly after hearing this and said, "No need to be polite to me."

Nangong Ao watched Liang Fengyi get down and said worriedly, fearing that she would fall and hit her, "I will help you get on the sedan chair."

She stretched out her hand in front of Liang Fengyi. Liang Fengyi was timid and nervous. She glanced at Ye Wange secretly. She was afraid that Nangong Ao would be jealous and angry with her good Ye Wange. She didn't want to have conflicts or fights with others, let alone offend Ye Wange, the queen who alone supported the power of the harem.

.

Ye Wange looked at Liang Fengyi's timid eyes, and she pretended not to notice. Nangong Ao looked at Liang Fengyi's troubled expression, and said, "Hold me, and I will take you to the sedan."

Nangong Ao's voice was majestic, and Liang Fengyi, who was as timid as a mouse, did not dare to refute, and stretched out her hand to let Nangong Ao support her.

Nangong Ao sent Liang Fengyi to the sedan chair, worried about Liang Fengyi's safety.

He also followed Liang Fengyi in a sedan.

After everyone left, Funing Palace returned to peace. The bustling palace just now suddenly became silent. Ye Wange, who was tense, relaxed, and the servants also relaxed from their tension.

"Queen, Concubine Liang is pregnant!" Xiaodie asked quietly.

Ye Wange heard that Xiaodie was depressed and said, "She's pregnant."

Hearing Ye Wange turn around, Xiaodie glanced at Ye Wange secretly. Xiaodie's secretly looking eyes made Ye Wange notice, and Ye Wange asked, "What's wrong?"

Xiaodie thought that Concubine Liang was pregnant. If she gave birth to a dragon son, would it threaten your position as Queen? Doesn’t the Queen understand this?

Worried about Ye Wange, she looked around and saw that all the servants were waiting in the outer room. She asked in a low voice, "Concubine Liang is pregnant. The emperor and the empress dowager are both happy. In case of giving birth to a dragon son, Concubine Liang will marry the empress."

What should you do if you fight for position?"

Ye Wange looked as normal after hearing Xiaodie's worry, "Although mother is more valuable than son, even if Concubine Liang gives birth to a son, she cannot take away the position of queen."

Xiaodie was skeptical after hearing Ye Wange's confident words, "Queen, if Concubine Liang really gives birth to a son, even if she doesn't take over the position of queen, she will be able to reach the sky with her son." Xiaodie didn't dare to say that to Ye Wange at that time.

After becoming the queen, she only had a false reputation, and only emphasized the great power of Liang Fengyi at that time.

Ye Wange understood what Xiaodie meant. Liang Fengyi gave birth to a dragon son. Even if Liang Fengyi did not take the position of queen, Liang Fengyi would still be respected and loved to a certain extent.

It is better than her, a queen in name only.

So what if she ends up with the false reputation of a queen, maybe the Northern Tang Dynasty will change its owner before that time comes. This is just what she thinks in her heart, and she doesn't let these slaves know her thoughts, so she is not in a hurry.

, the unknowing slave is anxious.

"The most important thing now is that the Queen should find a way to conceive a dragon heir as soon as possible?" Xiaodie said anxiously.

Ye Wange looked at Xiaodie anxiously wishing that she was pregnant with a dragon heir now so that she could suppress Liang Fengyi's aura. She said, "Xiaodie, don't worry about me, things won't be what you think."

Ye Wange's words disappointed Xiaodie. She was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, but her master didn't care about this matter at all.

The happy news of Concubine Liang's happiness spread throughout the palaces of the Northern Tang Dynasty. Even the people in the market were talking about the royal family of the Northern Tang Dynasty having a dragon heir, and the next generation of kings would be born.

Concubine Liang's worth increased with the baby in her belly, so Nangong Ao ran to her Changle Palace every now and then.

Shen Ruhui, who had been recuperating, felt irritable and restless after hearing that Liang Fengyi was pregnant. In the harem, Ye Wange had already taken the lead in taking over her as the queen, and now there was another Liang Fengyi. If Liang Fengyi gave birth to a dragon son, then even if

If Ye Wange is pulled down from the position of queen, then it will not be her turn to take the position of queen.

When Shen Ruhui was sitting uneasily, the servant reported that the concubine was coming to visit. After hearing this, Shen Ruhui immediately said, "Invite her in."

He Yingchun wears a burgundy embroidered cotton coat, a light brown floor-length skirt, a peony hairpin, and a gold agate necklace around her neck. She is luxurious in a low-key manner and individual in a restrained manner.

Although Shen Ruhui was not familiar with He Yingchun, her father Shen Liang had mentioned He Yingchun to her, saying that He Yingchun was the daughter of He Dao, the Minister of Household Affairs, and that she was one of his own.

"Sister, give my regards to Concubine Hui!" He Yingchun brushed his body and said hello to Shen Ruhui.

Shen Ruhui hurriedly went to help He Yingchun and said, "You are trying to shorten my life. You and I are equals for the noble concubine. How can I bear this gift from you?" Shen Ruhui said carefully.

He said softly.

"My sister is older than me in terms of age and entered the palace earlier than me. It is my duty to send my greetings to my sister," He Yingchun said.

Shen Ruhui took He Yingchun's hand and said, "Sit down first."

He Yingchun sat down, and Shen Ruhui said, "Your father and I are officials in the same court, and we have a deep friendship. We sisters are also noble concubines. This is a great fate."

"Yes." He Yingchun responded, "I wanted to see my sister when I entered the palace. But I just entered the palace and I am not familiar with the place. I am afraid that I will violate the rules of the palace and dare not wander around. Please forgive me."

Shen Ruhui brought the tea in the slave tray to He Yingchun and asked He Yingchun to drink it. She then said, "If my sister is so thoughtful, I can't be happy before it's too late. How can I blame you?"

I entered the palace earlier than you, sister, and I have no choice but to say that I can't help my sister." Shen Ruhui said with a sad look on her face.

After hearing this, He Yingchun comforted her and said, "Sister, please don't say that. My sister and the emperor are in love with each other and have committed to each other for life. No one can match her status in the emperor's heart." He Yingchun put a high hat on Shen Ruhui.

Shen Ruhui sighed after hearing He Yingchun's words. Nangong Ao was kind to her, but because the last poisoning incident angered Nangong Ao, he was also dissatisfied with her now. Although he didn't show it on his face, he said it with his mouth. He didn't say it, but she could feel that he hid his displeasure in his heart.

"That's all in the past. In terms of status, I can't compare to the queen, and in terms of favor, I can't compare to the pregnant Concubine Liang.

Although he is not an old man, what is the use of such a sickly body? He will not please the emperor and will not be able to have children.

In the end, she couldn't escape the fate of being left in the cold." Shen Ruhui felt sorry for herself.

He Yingchun heard this and said, "How can my sister look down on herself so much?

In terms of looks and family affairs, my sister is as good as the queen.

In terms of affection for the emperor, no one can compare with her sister.

Why do you have to be so down on yourself, sister?"

After hearing He Yingchun's respectful words, Shen Ruhui said, "So what? In this harem, we never talk about feelings. What we talk about is means and power, and what we talk about is backstage and heirs."

He Yingchun was worried about how to bring the topic to her, when Shen Ruhui mentioned heirs. She used this topic to say, "I understand the hardship of Sister Hui. In this palace, the mother is more valuable than the son. If If you have no heirs, no matter how favored you are, it will be just a flash in the pan, and you will eventually lose your foothold.

My sister and I are in the same boat. Look at Concubine Liang, who entered the palace with me. She is pregnant and now she is surrounded by honors and favors.

The emperor went to her all day long and was considerate to Concubine Liang.

Even the Empress Dowager cares about Concubine Liang in every possible way, which is enviable to the rest of us."

Hearing that He Yingchun had been beating around the bush for so long before bringing the topic to the point, Shen Ruhui remained silent and pretended not to know what He Yingchun meant.

Seeing that Shen Ruhui didn't speak, He Yingchun said, "Sister Hui, we can't get pregnant. Why do you think Concubine Liang is so lucky to be pregnant with the dragon heir and reach heaven in one step?"

Shen Ruhui heard the mystery hidden in He Yingchun's words. She pretended to purse her lips and said, "Maybe it's Concubine Liang who drank the fertility soup!"

"Concubine Liang didn't drink the fertility soup given by the Queen. I kept drinking it but I didn't get pregnant." He Yingchun said anxiously.

He Yingchun felt unwilling when she thought of this. She kept drinking the fertility soup, but she couldn't even see the shadow of her son. Instead, it was the idiot Concubine Liang who got pregnant with the son first.

"Then maybe Concubine Liang has some secrets. There are so many concubines in the harem who can't conceive a dragon heir, but she did. This is really strange.

Maybe it was the child given to her by God." Shen Ruhui deliberately lured He Yingchun to another place.
