The third day of June, the queen's birthday. This year, the crown prince got the eldest son, and the crown princess was pregnant, and the queen was very happy, so she made a birthday banquet, and invited many clans and courtiers to celebrate together.

A few days ago, the third young lady of the Huainan Palace, the heavenly daughter of Ziwei Palace, disappeared, and it was rumored that this matter had a great relationship with the queen, but because the prince and the Marquis of Xuanyuan protected the queen, the matter was not resolved.

People with memories remembered the incident of Qin Guifei more than ten years ago, although everyone knew that Qin Guifei was killed by a killer sent by the queen, but there was no conclusive evidence, coupled with the power of Marquis Xuanyuan, His Majesty had to retreat, and turned that matter into an unsolved case.

However, compared to Qin Guifei back then, this time the matter of the Heavenly Maiden was not so easy to be revealed, and the reason was that Su Cheng'an's husband, the third prince of Huainan Palace, would not give up on this matter. It was because of this incident that the recent situation was turned upside down, so that Xuanyuan Hou didn't have a headache.

The most important thing is His Majesty's attitude, he always connived at Gu Tingjun's behavior intentionally or unintentionally, and Xuanyuan Hou was even more angry.

The news of the emperor's discord has long been known, and this time it is even more spreading, it is said that someone has seen His Majesty's loud quarrel with the queen, and His Majesty slapped the queen. However, the queen's mood was not affected at all, and attending this birthday banquet was still high-spirited and extravagant.

She teased with her eldest grandson in her arms, she liked it so much that she couldn't help but glance at Lan Guifei on the side, now her son is the crown prince, he already has a grandson, and there is also a grandson who is about to be born, and Lan Guifei's son is now suppressed so much that he can't move, and he hasn't even married the concubine, and he doesn't even have a son and a half daughter under his knees, but it is rumored that these two princes can't have children.

She glanced at Concubine Lan with pity, although her ability to please His Majesty was not as good as her, but it was definitely herself who had the last laugh, and she was destined to become her own subordinate defeated, just like that slut!

The child began to cry, and the nurse took the child down to feed.

Zheng Peilan smiled and said a few words beside the queen, and the queen responded with a smile, it seems that the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law get along very harmoniously, which is completely different from the situation between Li Changlong and Xuanyuan Hou.

"I haven't seen you for a few days, why do you think my sister's belly has grown a lot bigger all of a sudden!" Zheng Peilan turned her head and said to Bai Qianruo, "I was shocked, but looking at my sister's belly, aren't they pregnant twins?"

"The doctor said that it was all normal, so I never heard him say that he was pregnant with twins. Bai Qianruo said, holding her stomach a little nervously, Li Changlong sat next to her, Li Changlong glanced at her stomach when she heard this, and nodded and said: "Pei Lan didn't say that I didn't notice it in the palace, it is indeed a lot bigger." ”

"This is your crown princess and child, you don't even care, how can you be a husband and father?" the queen scolded pretending to be angry.

Li Changlong borrowed the slope to get off the donkey and said to Bai Qianruo: "In the past, the palace ignored the crown princess, it was the palace's fault, the palace apologized to the concubine, and the concubine please don't blame the palace anymore!"

"The concubine doesn't dare to blame His Royal Highness, it's all because the concubine is not in good health. It may be that she is too sensitive after being pregnant with a child, and the concubine will correct it and serve Her Highness well!" Bai Qianruo said meekly.

"Seeing that His Royal Highness and his sister can reconcile as before, Pei Lan is also very happy in her heart!" Zheng Peilan smiled and took the wine glass, "Pei Lan respects His Royal Highness and his sister a glass, and in the future, Pei Lan and his sister and sisters will be by His Royal Highness's side and assist His Highness." ”

Bai Qianruo also got up with a wine glass: "Please!"

At this time, a palace man accidentally spilled the soup on Bai Qianruo's body when he was serving, and he was so frightened that he knelt down and kowtowed: "The crown princess atonements, the slave and maid should die!

Zheng Peilan immediately asked with concern, "Sister, are you okay?"

"I'm fine! Don't worry. Bai Qianruo hurriedly said, "You didn't mean to, go down!"

"The slave maid wrote the grace of the crown princess!" the palace maid hurriedly retreated.

"My sister's clothes are all dirty, so I'd better go and change into clean clothes. Zheng Peilan said, "Come on, prepare a set of clean clothes for the crown princess, and send the princess to change clothes!"

"No, it's just a little wet, so it's not so troublesome. Bai Qianruo said hurriedly.

"Then how can it be done!" Zheng Peilan said resolutely, "My sister is now pregnant, how can she wear wet clothes? Besides, there are so many people here looking at it, and my sister is wearing dirty clothes, and she will inevitably lose her dignity." ”

The queen also spoke: "It's okay to change clothes, Zhu'er, you help the crown princess to change clothes." ”

"Yes. ”

Bai Qianruo had no choice, so he had to be helped up by the palace people and went to the side hall next to him to change clothes. At this time, a palace maid who was serving food suddenly slipped and pushed Bai Qianruo, and she immediately fell to the ground.

The princess fell, but she got it, and the people around her were panicked and ready to help her up, and in a panic, someone touched the princess's belly, why is it so soft and so strange?

When everyone helped Bai Qianruo up, the pillow she used to disguise her stomach accidentally fell out, and everyone watched her stomach suddenly deflated like a deflated ball, and they were stunned in surprise. They all knelt on the ground, not daring to speak.

Bai Qianruo was suddenly exposed to everyone's field of vision, panicked and helpless, and hurriedly knelt down.

"What's going on!" The queen was furious, she was so present outside on her birthday, and such a humiliating thing happened, "Bai Qianruo, you dare to pretend to be pregnant!"

"No!" Bai Qianruo hurriedly explained, "That's not the case, please listen to Erchen's explanation! Erchen is indeed pregnant, but because his belly has not been big, he didn't want to cause unwarranted speculation from the outside world to make this decision, Erchen didn't pretend to be pregnant!"

"If you are pregnant, let the imperial doctor come for a test!" the queen said coldly, "Come and announce the imperial doctor!"

Such a scandal happened in the royal family, and everyone looked at each other. There are two people who have become the center of the courtiers' scrutiny, one is the Marquis of Xuanyuan, who has nothing to do with himself, and the other is the white prime minister with a worried face.

After a while, the imperial doctor was announced to diagnose Bai Qianruo's pulse. The imperial doctor took the pulse repeatedly, and his face changed several times.

"Is the crown princess pregnant?" the queen asked coldly.

"Qi Yu Niangniang, according to the judgment of the old minister, the crown princess is not pregnant. The old lady said.

"You are talking nonsense!" Bai Qianruo hurriedly shouted, "How could I not be pregnant! My kuishui has not come for a few months, and you only checked my pulse last month, saying that my fetus is very stable, why do you change your words now to say that I am not pregnant!"

"Lao Chen did diagnose the pulse of the crown princess last month, and it was indeed a pregnant pulse, but the pregnant pulse was caused by the princess taking medicine, so Lao Chen misdiagnosed. The old lady said, "And the old minister looked at the crown princess's belly, and there was no sign of pregnancy, so he thought that he might have been misled, so this time he diagnosed it again and again, so he noticed something abnormal! Princess, after so long, you may think that you are really pregnant, but think about it, if you are really five months pregnant, how can your lower abdomen still be as flat as before?"

"Queen Mother, Erchen didn't take any medicine, and it was also the fact that they diagnosed Erchen's pregnancy at the beginning, and they would come to check Erchen's pulse every half month, didn't they ever find anything abnormal?" Bai Qianruo said hurriedly, "They must have been bought!"

"Crown Princess, please be careful!" said the old lady doctor, "What the old minister said is not the slightest lie, the world can learn from it! Crown princess, you are not an ignorant child, why did you find that your belly has not become bigger, but you never failed to tell the imperial doctor who checked our pulse, but wanted to create a pregnancy image and continue to mislead us?"

"Stop arguing!" Li Changlong also felt very embarrassed, "Take the crown princess down first, this matter is guilty of bullying the king, and it must be investigated!"

"Yes!"

A few guards entered and brought Bai Qianruo, whose face was pale, down.

Prime Minister Bai immediately came out to plead guilty, knelt on the ground and kowtowed: "The old minister is not strict with his daughter, and it is the old minister's sin to let her do such a deceitful thing!"

"Prime Minister. The queen reassured, "If she claims to be innocent of the guards, this matter has not been investigated, she cannot be said to be guilty, and the prime minister should not be busy pleading." You get up first, it's about the Dragonborn, and I'm afraid that this matter will have to be handled by Your Majesty. ”

Xuanyuan Hou drank a glass of wine slowly, and did not say anything about this matter, he had been made to sleep badly by Gu Tingjun's kid in the past few days, and now he saw that Prime Minister Bai Cheng, an old immortal, was deflated, and he also felt a little happy in his heart.

In recent days, this old guy has been a lot more proud of the princess's pregnancy, as the so-called higher he stands, the harder he falls, the more hope he has for this grandson, and this time he will only be more disappointed.

He couldn't help but look at his daughter twice, or Pei Lan had the means, not only easily removed the stumbling block of the crown princess for himself, but also this matter would inevitably affect the relationship between the prince and Prime Minister Bai, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone.

Zheng Peilan sneered in her heart, and waited for today after planning for many days, but there was a worried look on her face, and she comforted Li Changlong and said: "Your Highness, don't be in a hurry to get angry, my sister's matter is just like what the queen mother said, and it has not yet been decided! Not to mention taking 10,000 steps back, even if my sister is fascinated by her mind for a while and has done something wrong, it is because she wants to give birth to His Highness's heir as soon as possible, all for Your Highness!"

Li Changlong glanced at Zheng Peilan with an unpredictable face, and suddenly smiled: "Why doesn't this palace know that you are so generous?"

The queen pressed her temples with a headache and said, "The family is unfortunate, and such a thing has swept away your interest." Everyone, please go back today, and the Japanese Palace is feasting you!"

"Wait for the resignation!"

When it came to the secrets of the royal family, everyone didn't dare to stay for a long time, so they retreated one after another.
