Chapter 306: The Imperial Concubine is Pure and Elegant (Fifty-Five)

Xiangxiu gently pressed the acupoints on the queen's head and persuaded her to calm down.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty truly dotes on Concubine Cui too much. Ever since Concubine Cui was injured, Your Majesty has only visited the palaces during the day and never stayed overnight. Concubine Ji was able to get pregnant only because Your Majesty still favored her. If that were the case, it would be difficult for her to get pregnant now. In my opinion, Concubine Ji is timid and would never dare to hide her pregnancy. I guess it's because the pregnancy is still young that the imperial physician didn't diagnose it. Unlike Concubine Xu at that time, she treated you like a snake and scorpion and waited until she was pregnant for three months before announcing it to everyone."

Queen Ji sneered. If Ji Wei dared to hide the fact that she was three months pregnant, no one would take her as the queen seriously unless she punished Ji Wei.

As for the emperor's recent changes, Empress Ji naturally saw it and was a little panicked. Even if she told Empress Dowager Cui that the emperor should treat everyone equally, Empress Dowager Cui would only be vague and would not warn the emperor at all. After all, Cui Li, the most favored one at the moment, was her niece.

Empress Ji speculated to herself that although the emperor was raised by the empress dowager since childhood, he was not her biological son after all. The emperor was very fond of the Geng family, which showed that he had not forgotten his biological mother. Empress Dowager Cui must be uneasy, fearing that the emperor would treat her poorly, so she took the opportunity to use Cui Li to win over Emperor Liang. How cunning!

She was indeed negligent in the matter of Concubine Xu. She only did superficial work and never cared about Concubine Xu's life or death behind her back. Even when she noticed something unusual in Concubine Xu's palace, she kept silent.

The emperor knew that she had stood by and watched the fight, which led to Cui Li being injured and Concubine Xu losing her child, so it was normal for him to be a little cold towards her.

The only thing that comforted her was that she had a good family background.

The relationship between the three kingdoms of Ji, Qi and Liang is delicate now and the war has temporarily stopped. I wonder if my brother will come back from the border during this year's New Year?

Although the emperor stayed in Chengqian Palace every day, Empress Ji knew that her position as empress was secure. With her around, Cui Li's dream of becoming empress was just wishful thinking!

The emperor was considerate to her and often came to Kunning Palace, but if the emperor didn't stay overnight, how could she give birth to a son?

"My Lady, the medicine is ready. Will you bring it in?"

Empress Ji: "If no one comes, why take medicine?"

When the topic of fertility medicine was brought up, Queen Ji became even angrier!

A course of fertility medicine lasts three months. Now she is on the second course. The chances of having a boy are very high. She happily asked Xiangxiu to prepare the medicine in the afternoon and wait for her to come back to take it.

But what’s the point of taking medicine now?

Every time she came to Kunning Palace, the emperor looked as if he was pure and ascetic, and he couldn't indulge in lust in broad daylight. If the emperor didn't stay overnight in the future, what was the point of her being so enthusiastic?

"But this medicine cannot be stopped..."

Queen Ji: "Just break it off! I don't want to drink anymore anyway!"

The fertility medicine was bitter and difficult to drink, and she felt uncomfortable every time she drank it!

Empress Ji was already in a bad mood, so she didn't want to take the medicine.

Empress Ji: "Please take good care of Ji Zhaoyi's baby. It may be useful in the future. If the emperor only goes to Chengqian Palace in the future, the future princes, besides Cui Li's, will only be the fetus in Ji Zhaoyi's belly."

"Yes, your majesty, rest assured. Xiangxiu understands. I will take good care of Ji Zhaoyi and will ensure that she gives birth safely. Your majesty, is Concubine Cui really so seriously injured? She didn't even show up for such an important occasion today. I have always had a premonition that Concubine Cui must be hiding something very important. Do you think she is pregnant?"

Empress Ji: "It is indeed a bit strange. Cui Li... Cui Li... I will send someone to investigate. As for Consort Ji, you don't have to worry too much about her. She is not as weak and helpless as she appears. Her pretentious appearance can only deceive men. I will just fulfill my duties as Empress. She is a princess of the Ji Kingdom, and we are not of the same kind. If I protect her pregnancy for no reason, it will seem that I have ulterior motives, and Your Majesty will also think too much."

After complaining to Xiangxiu a few more times, she called someone in to help her wash up.

Xiangxiu had no choice but to give up persuading the queen to drink the medicine. Looking at the bowl of cold medicine, she poured it out expressionlessly, her eyes full of coldness.

Ji Wei sat in front of the bed, touching her belly with satisfaction. Her voice was barely audible, but it was fierce.

"My dear son, your mother will definitely help you reach that position in this life. The supreme power belongs to us, mother and son! No one can stop me, otherwise, you will die!"
