"Yes, Your Highness." The imperial doctors looked at each other, but they did not dare to disobey His Highness the Crown Prince's order.
"yes."
"Okay, everyone, please step aside and receive your reward."
Hearing this, the Crown Princess frowned slightly, and anger welled up in her heart.
But at this time, she endured it and said with a pitiful look.
"Your Highness, what do you mean by this? Is my concubine so despicable in your eyes?" Her voice became choked as she spoke.
When the prince saw this, he immediately panicked and hurriedly comforted him: "Don't get me wrong, princess. I definitely didn't mean to belittle you."
"Really?" The Crown Princess still looked at him hopefully.
"Of course it is true, but this matter involves too much, and I must make arrangements carefully before I can tell the world."
"Well, since that's the case, I'll wait for news from His Highness." The Crown Princess nodded meekly.
"Then please go back and rest, Crown Princess. I still have to deal with government affairs. I will go over to accompany you later."
"Yes." The princess responded obediently.
Then she turned and left the hall. When passing Xiao Xian, a shy look appeared in her eyes.
Then he walked away.
After Xiao Xian disappeared, she also left closely behind.
Gao Zongxian breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this, with a look of relief on his face, and then gave instructions to the eunuch.
"Here comes someone, come to Fengqi Palace."
Fengqi Palace.
"Your Highness, why are you here?"
As soon as Gao Zongxian entered, Concubine Li couldn't wait to greet him, took his hand and asked with concern.
Gao Zongxian patted Concubine Li's hand, motioned for her to sit down, and then said:
"Let me tell you something, Yue'er is pregnant."
"Oh? Is this serious?"
"Yes, we have called the imperial doctor to see him." Gao Zongxian nodded.
Concubine Li responded calmly, but after all, she was cunning and scheming, and she didn't look happy like an ordinary female family member.
Gao Zongxian seemed to have seen through Concubine Li's disguise and only smiled lightly.
"I won't take this matter seriously for the time being, and I'll keep it a secret even if I return it to my mother."
"Don't worry, I know the importance of this and will hide it for you."
"Thank you, mother." Gao Zongxian said gratefully.
"You are my only son. If I don't help you, who will I help?"
The two chatted for a while, and then Gao Zongxian returned to the East Palace.
The atmosphere in the East Palace was very depressing, but Gao Zongxian seemed not to notice it and walked straight into the room and sat next to Shen Yue.
"My beloved, how do you feel?"
"I'm fine, Your Highness, don't worry."
Shen Yue answered obediently. Hearing this, Gao Zongxian smiled and nodded:
"Prove that my efforts are not in vain."
As he spoke, he raised his hand and stroked Shen Yue's swollen belly, his eyes shining with anticipation and excitement.
At this moment, several birdsong came from the roof.
Gao Zongxian immediately stood up alertly: "What's the sound?"
"My slave just heard a few chirpings of birds. They must have been birds flying over somewhere."
The little eunuch who was serving him hurriedly replied.
"Um."
Gao Zongxian put down his guard, sat back on the edge of the bed and held Shen Yue's hand:
"My beloved concubine has been working hard recently. I plan to select some good ingredients from the warehouse and bring them to you. What do you think?"
"Your Highness."
Shen Yue was a little hesitant, but she didn't want to offend Gao Zongxian, so she persuaded him softly:
"It's enough for Your Highness to have such a heart, but I heard that what this child needs most is nutrition."
"Oh? Nutritional supplements?"
Gao Zongxian was a little confused, then he remembered something, and then murmured to himself.
"That's right! It's a bird's nest."
"It is said that eating bird's nest will help with postpartum recovery."
"So that's it." Shen Yue also nodded slightly.
Gao Zongxian suddenly felt a sense of hope in his heart.
"My dear concubine, in that case, why don't I order someone to buy a batch of bird's nests now, and then let the royal chef make soup for you after the baby is born?"
"this."
Shen Yue was a little hesitant, Xiao Xian's appearance kept appearing in his mind.
"My dear concubine, our child is so valuable that we must not be wronged."
"All right."
Seeing Gao Zongxian's firm attitude, Shen Yue could only compromise.
"Then just follow what my beloved concubine said and go buy three kilograms, no, seven kilograms of bird's nests."
Gao Zongxian thought for a while, changed his mind, and immediately ordered his personal eunuch to do it.
Shen Yue had no choice but to sigh and agree, but Gao Zongxian suddenly spoke again.
"My dear concubine, you won't blame me for what happened before, right?"
"How dare I, my concubine?" Shen Yue quickly shook her head.
"That's good."
Gao Zongxian finally showed a satisfied smile. Seeing this, Shen Yue raised a bitter curve at the corner of his mouth.
Gao Zongxian did not notice Shen Yue's strange reaction. He looked at the palace maid and gave instructions.
"You all please step aside. I will personally serve the Crown Princess for the time being."
After saying that, he personally helped Shen Yue lie down on the bed to rest.
"Your Highness, I want to drink water." Shen Yue suddenly pretended to be weak.
"Okay, I will pour it for you to drink now." Gao Zongxian heard this and immediately took the teacup on the table and handed it to her.
Shen Yue held it in the palm of her hand, took a sip, and then slowly closed her eyes to rest.
Seeing this, Gao Zongxian also waited quietly.
After a while, Shen Yue suddenly asked: "Your Highness, I am hungry."
"Okay, I will ask the catering bureau to prepare it immediately." Gao Zongxian responded quickly, then quickly walked out of the dormitory and gave orders.
"Your Highness."
At this time, the imperial doctor from the imperial hospital also came to Fengqi Palace. When he saw Gao Zongxian, he immediately knelt down and saluted.
"I'll be free of charge." Gao Zongxian waved his hand indifferently and then asked.
"Hurry and check the Crown Princess's pulse and see how she and the child are doing now."
"yes."
The imperial doctor stood up and walked towards Shen Yue, squatting down respectfully to take her pulse.
It took a long time for the imperial doctor to take back his hand and report respectfully.
"Your Highness, the fetus in the Crown Princess's belly is developing well. Your Highness, please relax and don't worry."
"Oh, is it so?"
Hearing this, Gao Zongxian's eyes flashed with relief.
"Imperial physician, according to you, my son is very healthy?"
"Yes, Your Highness." The imperial doctor replied respectfully.
"Haha, this is such a happy event." Gao Zongxian heard this and laughed loudly.
Hearing this, Shen Yue pursed her lips into a straight line and stared at Gao Zongxian with a meaningful look in her eyes.
At this time, Gao Zongxian seemed to feel her gaze, and immediately turned to look at her and asked with a smile.
"My beloved concubine, what's wrong with you? Aren't you happy?"
Shen Yue lowered her eyes and refused to pay attention to him.
"My dear concubine, if you really don't want to talk to me, then I will go out and won't delay your rest."
Gao Zongxian saw this and pretended to be sad.
"Your Highness." Shen Yue gritted her teeth and called him.
"Huh? My beloved, are you still angry with me?"
Gao Zongxian immediately approached him with a flattering look.
