Aunt Liu didn't quite understand what the Queen Mother meant, but she still habitually clapped her hands and nodded in agreement.

The next day, Aunt Liu personally went to the Yingchuan Prince's Mansion and asked Ye Yuxiao to diagnose Li Jiao's Ping'an pulse.

Ouyang Sheng was very reluctant to let Ye Yuxiao go. He was worried that Li Jiao's illness had not recovered yet and Ye Yuxiao would also contract the epidemic.

But Ye Yuxiao recalled the unusual behavior of Li Jiao and the Queen Mother when she entered the palace that day, and felt that there was something fishy about Li Jiao's illness, so she comforted Ouyang Sheng and went without hesitation.

When she arrived at Kunning Palace, she was shocked by Li Jiao's appearance.

Li Jiao, who was lying on the bed, was almost like a living dead. She was so thin that there was only a handful of bones left in her body, and her face was haggard and pale, without any blood.

Could it be that she really contracted the epidemic? No matter how you look at it, this looks like a serious illness. Ye Yuxiao, doubtful and wearing a mask, stepped forward to check her pulse.

Her pulse was weak, but it didn't look like she was sick. But, how come this pulse condition looks like a happy pulse? Ye Yuxiao thought she had made a mistake and repeatedly felt the pulse for a long time. Then she raised her head in surprise and said to Aunt Liu beside her: "The Queen is pregnant."

"Seriously? Oh, this is a huge happy event." Nanny Liu clapped her hands and pretended to be surprised.

Then her face was full of worry: "The Queen has been sick these days and has hardly eaten anything. Look at her, she is so hungry. Now she has become a twin again, this, this..."

Ye Yuxiao waved her hand: "Although the Queen is weak, her pulse condition is acceptable. At least I haven't diagnosed her with an epidemic pulse. I believe that as long as you take good care of her, there won't be any big problems."

"That's good, that's good." Aunt Liu said happily, "Please wait here, Princess Yingchuan, and I will tell the Queen Mother the good news now!"

After Aunt Liu left, Li Jiao, who was sleeping on the bed, opened her eyes. However, when she saw not only Ye Yuxiao but also two nuns from Cining Palace standing in front of the bed, she chose to close her eyes. .

Soon, the Queen Mother arrived at Kunning Palace, beaming with joy and smiling when she entered.

Ye Yuxiao stepped forward to congratulate the Queen Mother.

The Queen Mother smiled and said: "Thanks to Princess Yingchuan's fertility medicine, otherwise the Queen would not have become pregnant so quickly."

Ye Yuxiao said a few words of modesty.

The Queen Mother deliberately asked: "In what month can Princess Yingchuan diagnose the Queen's pregnancy?"

Ye Yuxiao glanced at the Queen Mother and said, "The Queen Mother is still young in her pregnancy. I must first know when her last menstrual period was."

The Queen Mother looked at Zicuckoo.

Zijuan's heart trembled, and after hesitating for a moment, she still said according to the time in Tong's history: "Your Majesty's little life is always very accurate. She has her period every month since her 25th month, and last month was no exception."

Ye Yuxiao nodded slightly: "The month of a woman's pregnancy is usually calculated from the last menstrual period. Based on this calculation, the queen is less than one month pregnant."

The Queen Mother was secretly satisfied and said with a smile: "As expected of Princess Yingchuan, she can even diagnose a pregnancy that is less than one month old."

Ye Yuxiao looked at Li Jiao on the bed and said goodbye to the Queen Mother: "Your Majesty, the Queen Mother is not feeling well. I will not disturb her rest."

The Queen Mother left her alone and said: "Princess Yingchuan will not leave until she prescribes some anti-fetal medicines for the Queen?"

Ye Yuxiao shook his head: "The Queen's body is very weak. Let's take the anti-fetal medicine later and take good care of her body first."

"Okay, okay, it's up to you." The Queen Mother said and asked the palace maid to send her out.

As soon as Ye Yuxiao left, Grandma Liu asked the Queen Mother: "Empress, do you think this Princess Yingchuan has diagnosed the true month of the Queen Mother's pregnancy?"

"I'm afraid it's a diagnosis. Otherwise, why didn't she just say the month directly, but asked about the day first?" The Queen Mother curled her lips and smiled, showing the pride after her plan succeeded. "You see, she is a smart person, what does she know? What should be said and what should not be said.”

"Aren't you afraid that she will do one thing in front of you and another behind her back, and start shouting everywhere when she leaves the palace?" Aunt Liu asked worriedly.

"Why is she clamoring? Does she have any evidence? The little days are there, and she said it was just a few months?" The Queen Mother sneered.

On the contrary, Aunt Liu felt relieved: "It's because of my foresight that I changed Tong Shi's plan a long time ago."

"When did the Ai family change the history of Tong? From the beginning, the history of Tong always recorded the twenty-fifth day of each month." The Queen Mother raised her eyebrows.

"Yes, yes, this slave is confused." Aunt Liu nodded in agreement.

"How did the Queen behave just now?" the Queen Mother said, looking at Li Jiao who was lying on the bed.

"The Queen has not opened her eyes this whole time." Aunt Liu replied.

It was okay if she didn't open her eyes, she was afraid of what Li Jiao would say to Ye Yuxiao. The Queen Mother felt relieved, walked to the bed, and called: "Jiaojiao!"

Li Jiao slowly opened her eyes and shed tears.

"You child, you are going to be a mother, why are you crying?" The Queen Mother said with a smile, "The Emperor will come later, you will not cry."

These words contained a threat, and Li Jiao turned away sadly.

The Queen Mother remembered Nanny Liu's words of "Eat soft food and not hard food." She sat down on the edge of the bed and held Li Jiao's hand: "Jiao Jiao, although this child is not the emperor's, he is your biological flesh and blood." . She can come into your belly, even if she is destined to you, do you really have the heart to abort her? "

Li Jiao's eyelashes trembled, as if she was touched.

It seemed that Aunt Liu knew Li Jiao very well. The Queen Mother smiled secretly and continued: "Jiaojiao, the Ai family designed you to have a child, not all for the sake of the throne. Think about it, the Ai family can't guarantee it, so you can You will definitely give birth to a prince, maybe a princess, right? This life of a person is too long. How difficult it would be if you didn’t have a child of your own. From now on, when you hold your white and fat child, you will look at it. When he is babbling, toddling, and full of joy, you will thank Aijia."

Li Jiao slowly opened her eyes.

The Queen Mother knew that she was touched, and secretly smiled again: "Jiaojiao, you are so happy to have children. Only when your own body is well taken care of can your child be well, right?"

Li Jiao asked with a hoarse voice: "The news of my concubine's pregnancy should have spread in the palace, right?"

"Maybe, but the Ai family hasn't sent anyone to tell the emperor yet." The Queen Mother replied.

Li Jiao was silent for a while and said: "Now that the deal is done, I would like to hold a banquet to celebrate."

The Queen Mother agreed without thinking too much: "Okay, as long as you are willing to obediently give birth to the child, the Ai family will depend on you for everything."

"Thank you, aunt." Li Jiao looked at the Queen Mother and said.

She finally accepted her fate. The Queen Mother breathed a sigh of relief and said: "The Ai family will send someone to inform the emperor now. The emperor must be very happy."

Li Jiao had no objection, so the Queen Mother sent someone to go.
