"Congratulations to Consort Ying, you are pregnant" said a Palace Physician.

"Ha-pregnant?" Asked Consort Ying reassuringly.

The doctor nodded confidently.

"Mrs finally you're Pregnant" Chirped Cheerfully to her servant.

Concubine Ying felt her stomach still flat, she did not believe it completely but she was very happy.

"Then why don't I have any pregnancy symptoms?" Strangely asked Concubine Ying.

"Not experiencing symptoms of Pregnancy including reasonable mistress" explained the Physician.

Now that Consort Ying felt grateful for the routine physician examination once a week, imagine that if there were no routine checks, then Consort Meng could show off that she had only served the Emperor overnight.

Now he could stand straight in front of concubine Meng.

"Tabib immediately inform the emperor and the queen mother" urged concubine Ying impatiently.

"Okay Madam" said the Physician, saluting.

After the taboo's departure, Consort Ying immediately ordered his servant to spread the news, he could not wait to see Meng's mistress' face.

***

"Miu immediately spread what I told you last night" Jia said as she brushed her hair.

"Good Madam" said Miu.

Jia was quite amazed by Liang, it turned out that he was quite fast-moving. After last night he ordered concubine Meng to serve him, the next morning he had already ordered the healer who examined concubine Ying.

"Madamma will concubine Meng be Wrathful?" Yuan asked as he paired up some accessories.

"I don't think so, because soon he will get the news that it is likely that the child conceived by concubine Ying is female" Jia explained.

"Alright, Yuan you keep it here I will invite Liu's sister to congratulate me" Jia said.

"The lady will go alone?" Ask Yuan.

"No, I think my brother will be here soon" Jia said.

And sure enough, Liu and his servant arrived shortly.

"Sister, will definitely congratulate concubine Ying?" Guess Jia.

"Sister is right, let's go together with Brother Xiao" Liu replied gently.

Liu did not know about this plan, because Jia deliberately kept it a secret so that Liu did not think.

After saying goodbye once more to Yuan, Liu and Jia finally headed for the Xiao residence.

***

"We greet the emperor, the Empress and the Queen Mother" said Bebarengan Liu, Jia and Xiao.

By the time they reached Consort Ying's residence they had already been greeted with this peace. Consort Ying had already spread this news.

"You come quickly, sit down immediately" replied the Empress.

The three of them immediately sat down, but soon Meng's group of concubines came.

Concubine Meng came with an upright face, Jia grinned as Miu had already spread the news.

Meng's retinue of concubines immediately saluted and sat in their respective places.

"Is concubine Ying not present yet?" Concubine Meng asked in a scornful tone.

"Her servant said concubine Ying was preparing. We have to excuse her because she is pregnant" replied the Queen Mother.

Concubine Ying came shortly.

"I'm sorry for making you wait" Consort Ying said, looking down.

Jia was quite impressed by Ying's acting concubine, she even had to endure her chuckle. While Liang looked at Jia with an amused gaze upon learning that Jia was holding back his chuckle.

"Sit down my concubine, I understand your delay" Liang said in a gentle tone.

Concubine Ying instantly blushed as she gained Liang's attention.

"We all came here to congratulate you on your pregnancy" the Queen said.

"Thank you everyone" Consort Ying replied gently.

"Hamba thanked His Majesty" said concubine Ying.

"The Empress and I brought Baby's swing of gold and jewels. It used to be a swing is given hereditary for the first offspring" said the Queen Mother who was followed by several people carrying a very beautiful swing.

"Hamba thanked the Empress and the Queen"

"Sister, I carry embroidery with silk" Liu said.

Fung Ying sparkled at the word silk. Especially when some people bring the cloth in.

"Thank you sister"

"My brother brought some clothes that are very comfortable to use for pregnant women" Jia said.

Five people went inside carrying five very beautiful and expensive hanfu chests.

Actually the money Jia used to buy her brother and Xiao's gifts was money from the Emperor.

"Thank you sister, you're very considerate" Fung said.

"Sister, I brought herbs from the rare Southern mountains" Xiao said.

This morning Xiao was quite surprised by the news that Jia brought, because he did not know what he had to bring. Luckily Jia had already prepared for him.

"You are quite considerate of your brother concubine Ying, this is a rare and hard to come by herb" the Queen Mother praised as she looked at the herbs brought in.

While Liang praised Jia enough to drain her money, Jia did ask for money to buy a gift but she did not know that the gift she bought was very expensive.

Xiao returned the compliment respectfully.

"Thank you for the little brother's gift"

"Concubine Meng, Consort Feng and Concubine Huan did you not bring any presents?" Ask the Queen Mother.

"Hamba deliberately prepared it last, the queen mother. Servant, Concubine Feng and Consort Hua have already prepared a splesial gift" Consort Meng said with a grin.

Before long some people came in carrying the intended gift. But Fung Ying was stunned by his reward.

There are baby clothes, baby shoes and even baby equipment that are quite expensive. But the problem is it's for all baby girls.

"What does brother mean?" Ask Fung Ying.

"I heard it was possible that the baby born to concubine Ying was female. Hence big brother purposely brought all of this" Sindir Concubine Meng, while Concubine Feng and Concubine Hua chuckled.

"Concubine Meng where did you hear the news?" Ask the Queen Mother.

"Hamba heard it from some servants, they said they heard it from the healer who examined concubine Ying" Consort Meng replied.

"Your Highness I beg for justice, it's all a lie. Servant herself felt that the servant contained a prince" Please Fung Ying while kneeling.

"My concubine, I will look for the healer and punish him for the slander he brought" Liang replied.

"True concubine Ying, you don't need to kneel so. Think of what you bear" added the Empress.

"Thank you Your Majesty the emperor and the Empress" Fung Ying said.

"Then I will take care of the healer immediately" said Liang who intended to leave.

Liang, the Empress and the Queen Mother immediately left Fung Ying's residence, followed by Consorts Meng and Jia's entourage.

After the departure of everything Fung Ying immediately ordered the servants to look for medicine so that the child he was carrying was a prince.

"Hahaha, you saw Fung Ying's face earlier. He was very pale to hear the news" Laughter Concubine Meng. They gathered back at his residence to chat.

"Sister, but is the news true?" Ask Concubine Hua.

"I heard it myself from the waiter, he had a chat with the nurse of the physician trust who examined concubine Ying" Consort Meng explained.

"Sister just has to make sure to get pregnant immediately and the child that a prince conceived" Consort Feng said.

"You take it easy I've thought about it" Reply Concubine Meng grinned.

"Then what about concubine Li?" ask Consort Feng.

"According to my father she will not conceive, the fragrance that concubine Ying gave her" Consort Meng said.

"Ah fragrance it" Consort Hua said.

Consort Ying also gave the fragrance to concubine Hua, but concubine Meng immediately told her.

"That means Consort Ying cannot be underestimated" Consort Feng said.

"You're right, for now it's enough that we worry her and for concubine Li I've prepared something" Consort Meng said.
