Chapter 17
Last Strike
Ye Wanwan was still thinking about how to get out of the palace, but soon the opportunity came. Something happened in the palace, and it was a big event.
The queen was pregnant, and she was already more than four months old. She was fully pregnant before telling everyone.
Emperor Yang announced the matter in the early morning, and the whole court congratulated him. The Leng family also became the object of envy and jealousy. If Leng Yunqing gave birth to a boy, he would be his legitimate son. Judging from Emperor Yang's attitude towards the Leng family, the crown prince's position was not lost.
.
The Leng family was in the limelight for a while. On the other hand, the Ye family looked miserable. Although the Ye family had Concubine Ye in the palace, Concubine Ye was already sterile. Even if the Queen Mother was there to support her,
Without the prince, it seems that the decline of the Ye family can already be seen.
Ye Wanwan was really stunned when she heard the news. Yes, how could she forget that the year she entered the palace happened to be when Leng Yunqing gave birth to the prince.
People in the harem were still guessing whether Leng Yunqing gave birth to a prince or a princess, but Ye Wanwan knew clearly that the child was a prince, and would be named a prince. In the end, he was killed, and the blame fell on her.
.
He twitched his lips and mocked endlessly. Whatever was supposed to come, would come.
How could we not celebrate such a big event as the queen's pregnancy? Although there is no need to entertain the courtiers, it is still necessary to organize the harem.
Yangdi naturally left this matter to the Queen Mother. After all, she was Yangdi's biological mother, so she was the most suitable candidate. At the same time, she generously lifted Ye Wanwan's grounding and allowed her to participate.
Knowing that Ye Wanwan could not get pregnant, but still allowing her to attend, the concubines in the harem were so envious and jealous of Leng Yunqing, and they were so mocking and sarcastic towards Ye Wanwan.
The Ye family let Ye Wanwan drink Juezi soup to show their loyalty, but she offended the emperor and was banned. Now she was lifted because the queen was pregnant, tsk tsk.
This is not humiliating, but heartbreaking.
The Queen Mother has always disliked people from the Leng family. She hated the late Queen and also hated the current Leng Yunqing. Even if Leng Yunqing was pregnant with her legitimate grandson, the Queen Mother would not be happy and would only be extremely resentful.
But she couldn't show it, even in order to satisfy her son, she had to do it well.
Queen Mother Ye was heartbroken and Ye Wanwan was in pain. Emperor Yang killed two birds with one stone and wouldn't let anyone go.
Being stabbed by Zhao Yi in such a way, Queen Mother Ye was heartbroken and bleeding. At this time, she also remembered that Ye Wanwan was well, so she was summoned to seek comfort.
Now that the confinement was lifted, Ye Wanwan naturally wanted to go out, but she was not there to comfort the Queen Mother, but to replenish her wounds.
Ye Wanwan dressed up casually and went over. She went in without announcing anything. She saw that the Queen Mother was rubbing her brows. It was just a small banquet, but she was so worried. It showed that she really didn't want to see the Queen.
"Greetings to the Queen Mother."
Queen Mother Ye looked up at Ye Wanwan and suddenly felt that among all the people in the palace, only Ye Wanwan was the most caring to her. After all, she had watched her grow up.
"Wan'er, you're here."
Ye Wanwan stood up and walked over: "The Queen Mother looks tired, but is she feeling unwell?"
Queen Mother Ye shook her head: "It's okay, I'm just a little tired."
"The Queen is pregnant, so it is appropriate for the Queen Mother to work harder."
Queen Mother Ye choked and looked at Ye Wanwan: "The Ai family knows that you are still blaming me, but the matter has come to this, and it is useless to talk about the past. The Ai family will double compensate you in the future."
Ye Wanwan was calm, not as emotional as last time. She seemed to have realized something: "It's all in the past. Queen Mother, you don't have to feel guilty. I don't blame you anymore. As for the rest...
Just let it happen."
Queen Mother Ye suddenly felt heartbroken. Ye Wanwan making a fuss would make her upset, but not crying or making a fuss made her feel distressed and guilty.
"Wan'er from the Ai family."
No matter how emotional the Queen Mother was, Ye Wanwan had no reaction. She took a sip of tea and put down the tea cup: "I heard that the imperial doctor has checked and found that 90% of the Queen's pregnancy is a boy. Judging from Your Majesty's attitude, the position of Crown Prince will not be lost.
"
Although Empress Dowager Ye defeated the former Empress in one game and made her son the crown prince, the Queen Mother made one move before the Queen and allowed the prince to be born from the Leng family's daughter's womb, which was considered a tie.
Obviously, Queen Mother Ye did not accept such a draw, and her face suddenly turned green.
"It hasn't been born yet. It's not clear whether it's a boy or a girl, let alone the position of the prince. Don't listen to the rumors spread by those outside."
Ye Wanwan refused to comment. The Queen Mother Ye did not want to see the Leng family, nor did she want to see the child born to Leng Yunqing, but she did not want to see him. As long as the emperor insisted, she would eventually compromise. Regarding Zhao Yi's decision, she
I can never object to it.
Ye Wanwan didn't sit for long before she got up and left: "The Queen Mother is organizing the banquet. I can't help you, so I won't delay the Queen Mother."
When Queen Mother Ye was about to say something, Ye Wanwan suddenly turned around: "By the way, I am in an awkward situation right now and I don't know what to give. Can you please help Queen Mother prepare a gift?"
Queen Mother Ye sighed: "Okay, the Ai family will prepare it for you."
Ye Wanwan saluted: "Thank you, Queen Mother, and I will take my leave."
Ye Wanwan left, and the Queen Mother's head hurt even more: "This girl doesn't make trouble anymore, alas..."
Wang Wei gave the Queen Mother a new cup of tea: "Isn't this a good thing? When such a big thing happens, it always takes time to accept it. The imperial concubine has already begun to accept it. When she calms down, she will understand the empress's painstaking efforts."
"hope so......"
