Steal my marriage? Turn around and marry the tyrant to take the throne

Chapter 1002 It's all up to Concubine Chen to decide

She remembered that in her previous life, she had never heard of a foreign concubine giving birth to a royal heir.

Was it that in the previous life, Concubine Chun did not get pregnant, or did she get pregnant but did not give birth?

Shen Zhinian had no way of knowing the real situation.

However, in this life, because she and Shen Nanqiao were reborn, many things have changed, and it is not impossible that Concubine Chun is pregnant.

Even so, Shen Zhinian remained calm.

Many people felt the same as she did and did not take the fact that Concubine Chun was pregnant to heart.

the reason is simple.

Even if a concubine from the Western Regions gave birth to a prince, what would that matter? Her son was destined to have no qualifications to inherit the throne from the very beginning.

Since Concubine Chun's royal heir will not pose a threat to them, at most Concubine Chun will be given more favor. Why should they care?

After figuring it out, even the princess's frown relaxed.

Oh! It is not certain whether a baby can be born or not.

Even if she can give birth, and Concubine Chun is lucky enough to give birth to a prince, so what?

The son of Concubine Chun will never have the qualifications to compete with the Third Prince!

Maybe Concubine Chun will develop greater ambitions because of having a prince, but end up with nothing.

Of course, not all women in the harem could see it so clearly. Many people looked at Concubine Chun's still flat belly, and their faces were filled with excitement.

Some people envy, some people are jealous, some people hate...

Why was Concubine Chun given an extra title by His Majesty after she entered the palace? And now she is so lucky that she can even conceive an imperial heir!

And throughout the year, except for some major festivals, they can't even see His Majesty...

Why are there so many differences between people?!

After realizing what was happening, the royal family and court officials hurriedly said, "Congratulations, Your Majesty! Congratulations, Lady Chun!"

"Congratulations, Your Majesty! Congratulations, Your Majesty!"

Concubine Zhuang also had a happy smile on her face, and she looked at Concubine Chun with a very gentle look: "No wonder Sister Chun was late to meet up with the other sisters at Zhongcui Palace tonight, and her face was a little pale. It turns out that she is pregnant."

"I wonder if Sister Chun is feeling better now?"

Concubine Chun touched her belly and smiled charmingly: "Thank you, Madam Zhuang, for your concern. I am fine. I am just a little uncomfortable with this child."

"But I have heard from many people that women experience these symptoms when they first become pregnant."

Concubine Zhuang smiled and nodded: "That's good."

"Speaking of which, when we came from Zhongcui Palace today, Sister Wangpin even gave the sedan chair to Sister Chun. It was really thoughtful."

"If the sisters in the harem can be so harmonious, it will also relieve your majesty's worries."

This was a hint that Concubine Wang, a lowly concubine, could see that Concubine Chun was not feeling well and knew to give the sedan chair to her.

Shen Zhinian was the imperial concubine who assisted in managing the six palaces. Everyone came from Zhongcui Palace, but she had no reaction.

Only Concubine Wang and Concubine Chun knew what was going on with the sedan chair being "given away" tonight.

Of course, Wangpin wouldn't be stupid enough to tell the truth in public.

Hearing Concubine Zhuang's praise, she smiled and said, "You are too kind, Concubine Zhuang."

"Since Sister Chun lives in my palace, it is my duty to take care of her."

The two of them sang the same tune, making Concubine Shen Zhinian look inconsiderate.

Shen Zhinian looked at Concubine Chun in surprise: "Oh? I didn't know there was such good news today."

"Mrs. Chun, when did you become pregnant? Why did you keep the news so secret? It would have been fine if I didn't know, but even His Majesty didn't hear about it."

"What if the palace servants of Shuixi Pavilion are careless and fail to serve you well, and hurt the heir to the throne?"

This is telling everyone that it's not that Shen Zhinian is unsympathetic to the pregnant concubine, but that Concubine Chun herself kept the news a secret. Who can be blamed?

Moreover, the third prince's biological mother, Xiao Yueying, deliberately pretended to be crazy and stupid after she became pregnant, and secretly gave birth to the third prince without telling anyone.

Although everything she did was to protect herself, she didn't even hide the fact that she was pregnant from the emperor. Doesn't that mean she didn't trust the emperor?

That matter has always been a thorn in Your Majesty's heart.

Therefore, even though the third prince born to Xiao Yueying was the eldest son of His Majesty, she did not receive overwhelming favor.

Although Chun Guiren's behavior was not as outrageous as Xiao Yueying's, it was similar in nature.

As expected, the joy in Nangong Xuanyu's eyes when he looked at Concubine Chun faded a lot, and he asked, "When did Concubine Chun become pregnant, and how old is she?"

Although Concubine Chun had never met the third prince's biological mother, she had heard people in the palace talk about Xiao Yueying.

She naturally understood that Concubine Chen was setting a trap for her. Not only would His Majesty's joy after knowing that she was pregnant fade a lot, but if her answer was not careful, His Majesty would feel that he did not trust him.

If a concubine does not trust the emperor, will the emperor still favor her in the future?

Concubine Chun couldn't help but curse inwardly, Concubine Chen was really cunning!

On her face, she had a look of joy and shyness, and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, I grew up in the Western Regions since I was a child, so after coming to the Great Zhou, my body has not been able to adapt to the climate and soil here, and my menstrual period has not come on time."

"Plus, I have never been a mother before, so I was a little careless and didn't even realize that I was pregnant..."

"I was really not feeling well these past two days, so I asked the imperial physician to see me, and only then did I know this good news."

"I was extremely happy at the time, and I wanted to report the good news to Your Majesty and Concubine Chen as soon as possible. But then I thought, today is the Mid-Autumn Festival, wouldn't it be wonderful if I could make Your Majesty even happier on such a good day?"

"I did not intend to hide the fact that I was pregnant. Please understand, Your Majesty."

Shen Zhinian nodded: "I see."

"I noticed that you looked a little pale when you arrived at Zhongcui Palace, and you don't look very energetic now. Why don't you ask the imperial physician to take a closer look at you to prevent any harm to the heir to the throne."

Hearing Shen Zhinian's words, many palace concubines looked at Concubine Chun calmly.

There was a case in the harem where someone faked pregnancy to win favor, and it caused quite a stir. Who knows whether Concubine Chun is really pregnant today or just faking it.

If it is the latter, it would be more cautious to ask the imperial physician to take a look, and Concubine Chun would also show a guilty look.

However, who would have thought that Concubine Chun touched her belly and gave Shen Zhinian a grateful smile: "Thank you, Concubine Chen, for your concern! I will leave it to Concubine Chen to make the decision."

Shen Zhinian glanced at Fuqiu and said, "Go to the Imperial Hospital and call Doctor Tang over."

Fuqiu bowed and said, "Yes."

When she left, Zhou Yuhu's eyes followed her.

Zhou Yuhu didn't turn around until Fuqiu's figure disappeared from his sight.
