Chapter 325: The Empress Is Pregnant

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

“Don’t worry, I know what to do.”

Hearing Jiang Peihuan’s words, the man whispered in reply.

Upon hearing what Xiao Nanye said, Jiang Peihuan chose not to comment further.

Initially, Jiang Peihuan had planned to leave the palace directly with Xiao Nanye. But when they reached the door of Kun Ning Palace, Jiang Peihuan suddenly thought of the Empress.

After pondering for a moment, Jiang Peihuan turned to the man beside her and said, “Xiao Nanye, let’s go see the Empress.”

“Ok.”

Xiao Nanye held the Empress in good regard, so when he heard Jiang Peihuan’s suggestion, he did not decline, choosing to accompany Jiang Peihuan to Kun Ning Palace instead.

“Why are the two of you free to visit today? 1 heard you both returned from Anzhou. I was thinking of summoning you to the palace tomorrow.”

As Jiang Peihuan and Xiao Nanye entered the Kun Ning Palace, the Empress was in conversation with her maidservant. Seeing the two of them, the Empress’s eyes lit up with joy.

“Greetings to the Empress.”

Approaching the Empress, both of them bowed. As Jiang Peihuan prepared to bow, the Empress reached out to hold her hand.

Holding Jiang Peihuan’s hand, the Empress softly said, “Now that you’re pregnant, refrain from excessive formalities. After all, we’re family; no need to be so formal.”

“One mustn’t discard courtesy.”

“You…”

Hearing Jiang Peihuan’s response, a deeper smile formed in the eyes of the Empress.

Back when Jiang Peihuan had cured her of the poison, the Empress was immensely grateful. However, if Jiang Peihuan disregarded etiquette now, the Empress, though silent, would have reservations.

Now, seeing that Jiang Peihuan still maintained her manners, the Empress looked at her warmly.

“Fetch some cow’s milk for Queen Cheng.”

“Yes.”

Upon hearing the Empress’s command, the maidservant quickly departed.

Moments later, a warm cup of cow’s milk was placed beside Jiang Peihuan.

Watching the maidservant serve the milk, the Empress gently laughed, “Being pregnant, you shouldn’t drink tea. This cow’s milk is very nourishing, you should drink more.”

“Thank you, Your Royal Majesty.”

Jiang Peihuan didn’t particularly like the taste of the milk, thinking it had a fishy taste. However, heeding the Empress’s words, she took a sip from her cup.

She had intended to take just a small sip.

But after tasting it, she realized there was no fishy taste, but instead, a faint hint of sesame.

She actually quite liked this flavor.

“Your Royal Majesty, the cow’s milk here tastes exceptionally good.”

Jiang Peihuan said to the Empress while slowly sipping the milk.

Xiao Nanye had been silently listening to their conversation, but after hearing

Jiang Peihuan’s comment, he directly asked the Empress, “Imperial Sister-in-law, can you give me the recipe for this milk?”

“You really don’t stand on ceremony.”

Hearing Xiao Nanye’s request, the Empress chuckled.

Jiang Peihuan looked a bit embarrassed.

However, since Xiao Nanye had already asked, Jiang Peihuan remained silent.

“When you leave the palace later, I’ll have someone provide you with the recipe.”

“Thank you, Imperial Sister-in-law.”

“Thank you, Empress.”

Upon hearing the Empress’s words, Jiang Peihuan and Xiao Nanye both expressed their gratitude.

The Empress, however, laughed it off, “It’s just a recipe, nothing significant.”

“Your Royal Majesty, I came today to take your pulse.”

At this moment, Jiang Peihuan revealed her purpose for visiting the Kun Ning Palace.

Hearing this, the Empress nodded and extended her hand, “Huan Er, then 1’11 have to trouble you.”

“You’re too kind, Your Royal Majesty.”

As she spoke, Jiang Peihuan approached the Empress.

After sitting down next to her, she reached out to feel the Empress’s pulse.

At first, Jiang Peihuan’s expression was calm. But as time went on, her eyes widened in surprise.

“Huan Er, is there something wrong with my body?”

The time Jiang Peihuan spent checking the Empress’s pulse was longer than usual.

By the time she released the Empress’s hand, the Empress couldn’t help but look at her with growing anxiety.

Hearing the Empress’s words, Jiang Peihuan replied, “Congratulations, Your Royal Majesty.”

“Congratulations? Huan Er, where does this joy come from?”

Confusion clouded the Empress’s eyes. In response to her puzzled look, Jiang Peihuan whispered, “Your Royal Majesty, I’ve just checked your pulse and found that you’re pregnant.”

“Huan Er, is that true?”

“Am I truly pregnant?”

Upon hearing Jiang Peihuan’s words, the Empress was stunned. A few seconds later, her eyes filled with excitement, she tightly grasped Jiang Peihuan’s hand.

Jiang Peihuan nodded affirmatively, “Indeed, Your Royal Majesty is pregnant.” “Is this really true?”

At this moment, an excited voice echoed from the entrance.

It was Emperor Qi Ming.

No one knew when Emperor Qi Ming arrived. In fact, when he heard that Jiang Peihuan and Xiao Nanye were at the Kun Ning Palace, he too came over.

Originally, he came to advise Xiao Nanye not to be overly devoted to Jiang Peihuan.

But now, hearing the news of the Empress’s pregnancy, all other concerns were forgotten.

Emperor Qi Ming’s excitement surpassed even that of the Empress. Seeing Jiang Peihuan not responding, he repeated his question, “Queen Cheng, is what you just said true? Is the Empress really pregnant?”

“Answering Your Majesty, the Empress is indeed pregnant. However, to be on the safe side, you should summon the palace doctor to examine the Empress again.”

“You’re right.”

“Wang Kun, go personally and call for the palace chief doctor to examine the Empress.”

“Yes.”

Wang Kun’s eyes also showed excitement. Why wouldn’t he be? It’s the Empress after all.

If the Empress gives birth to a crown prince this time, it would be a huge event.

Others might not know, but as someone who has served Emperor Qi Ming for decades, Wang Kun knew very well. Emperor Qi Ming held traditional views. In his eyes, the heir is most important.

This was also why, for so many years, Emperor Qi Ming did not name a crown prince.

As long as the Empress delivers an heir, the title of crown prince will be beyond the reach of other princes.

The chief doctor quickly arrived at Kun Ning Palace to check the Empress’s pulse. His diagnosis confirmed Jiang Peihuan’s findings.

Upon receiving a positive confirmation, joy filled Emperor Qi Ming’s eyes, “Rewards, rewards for everyone in Kun Ning Palace!”

“Thank you, Your Majesty, congratulations to Your Majesty and the Empress.”

Hearing Emperor Qi Ming’s words, everyone joyously expressed their felicitations.

At this time, the Empress, with a smile, said to Emperor Qi Ming, “If you truly wish to reward, you should properly reward Huan Er. 1 owe my pregnancy to her..”
