As soon as these words came out, the Queen Mother would be lying if she said she was not surprised.
No wonder she covered her mouth and nose with a handkerchief just now, that's why.
It’s just that these twins are not immune...
But seeing that the emperor had no intention of hiding anything, the Queen Mother had a rough idea.
If you thought just now that the emperor was just talking, you now understand.
He really cared about this woman.
She was able to ignore good and bad fortunes, which made the Queen Mother a little more sulky.
"The emperor told the Aijia these things today, but is he afraid that the Aijia will take action against her?"
"The mother is joking. The child in her belly is also the mother's grandson. There is no reason in this world for a grandmother to harm her own grandson. I just said this because I don't want to hide the mother. The news has not spread yet.
Well, it is always better to talk to mother first."
After hearing this, the Queen Mother's lips slightly raised.
He glanced sideways at the emperor, whom he had not seen for several years. He was still as sincere as before.
Thinking of this, the Queen Mother said nothing more.
He only gave one instruction.
"Let her come and pay her respects to the Ai family in two days. The Ai family wants to see what kind of ability this noble concubine has that can attract the emperor's attention."
"Yes, I will definitely tell her when I get back and ask her to come and pay my respects to my mother."
"Aren't you afraid that the Ai family will attack her?"
"I know who my mother is, and I know who my concubine is, so I don't have to worry."
When he finished saying this, his eyes were clear.
He was not disrespectful to the Queen Mother, but also very confident in Lin Wanyi.
Suddenly, the Queen Mother's ears rang with the words that she had spoken to her during the bright moonlit night yesterday.
"The emperor was accompanied by a demon concubine. That day, I saw the two of them dining in the Babao Pavilion, but no one in the palace knew the news. It must have been the demon concubine who coaxed the emperor out of the palace!
"
Suddenly, Lin Wanyi's thoughts became a little more unpredictable.
After a moment of silence, the Queen Mother waved her hand and said.
"Go, go, wait until the Ai family sees her before we can say anything else."
"Yes, I will retire."
The emperor left Cining Palace, and after thinking about it, he went to Yihua Palace.
Although it was a bit jarring to go now, since he had already told the Queen Mother, he was not afraid that other concubines would know that Lin Wanyi was pregnant.
Therefore, I didn’t deliberately cover up much.
In the main hall, Lin Wanyi was not too surprised that the Queen Mother wanted to see her.
I'm just a little worried about the emperor expressing his feelings so frankly.
She didn't know what kind of person the Queen Mother was.
Everything was mentioned by the emperor and the eunuchs who served the elderly.
So she had to explore it herself to find out.
"Then did the Queen Mother say when she would summon my concubine?"
"It's only for these two days. Then I can find an opportunity to have my pulse checked at Cining Palace and spread the news."
Lin Wanyi nodded.
Suddenly she remembered the way Concubine Ying looked at her, so she said to the emperor without any secret.
"Ms. Ying Fei has probably guessed it. After all, she also hid her pregnancy in the past."
"Well, I understand."
The emperor was not surprised by the news.
Concubine Ying has never been a fool. If he hadn't shifted her mind to the chores at her parents' house outside the palace, she might have known about it earlier.
But the emperor did not tell Lin Wanyi this.
He just briefly talked about what happened outside the palace.
As for the strength he used behind the scenes, he didn't mention a word.
After all, there are too many people and things involved. Now that Lin Wanyi is pregnant, it is better to think less and worry less.
So he continued to comfort him.
"It doesn't matter. If you know it, you will know it. It only depends on the past two days. Everyone knows it."
"Um."
After talking briefly for a while, I received a message from Concubine Yi.
It is said that the palace banquet has been prepared.
Just waiting for everyone to show up.
The Queen Mother's words of relief were much more solemn than the time the Emperor came back from Mount Tai.
At that time, only the harem and concubines were involved.
But today, all the royal family members must attend.
The last time we had such a neat gathering, it was the Dragon Boat Festival banquet.
When the fourth prince and his wife appeared, Lin Wanyi saw it.
However, due to the special situation, I could only give a slight nod.
Seeing this, the Fourth Prince also smiled frankly.
The fourth princess rarely saw the fourth prince have such an attitude towards the emperor's concubines, so she asked curiously after sitting down.
"The prince and your concubine have known each other before?"
The Fourth Prince shook his head.
"I don't know the concubine very well, but I have a deep impression of her brother."
Right.
Lin Xing became famous in one battle. Now who in Shengjing City knows about his situation?
The fourth prince has always cherished talents, and this man came from the Imperial Army, so he must know a lot.
Then the fourth princess smiled and said.
"The grandson of Prime Minister Lin is very popular now. I heard that more than a dozen matchmakers have come to propose marriage to the ladies in the city."
"oh?"
The Fourth Prince obviously didn't expect this.
But it's normal to turn your mind around.
He has a bright future now, and it would be strange if those hungry wolves didn't pounce on him now.
So he smiled and said.
"It's a pity that I don't have a daughter, otherwise Lin Xingzhi would be really good."
The fourth princess glanced at him sideways, and then said calmly.
"Forget it, I already have a husband who loves soldiers as much as his son. If there is a daughter, I will definitely find her a husband who will stick to her side every day, so that mother and daughter will not sigh together at the window."
Obviously, the fourth princess was dissatisfied with his behavior of often staying in the military camp.
When the fourth prince saw that his old wife was angry, he immediately said with a smile.
"Wait another two years, when these men can be in charge of their own affairs, I will definitely step down and accompany you to travel around the mountains and rivers."
"really?"
"It's more real than the gold given by the emperor!"
Being so disturbed by him, the fourth princess's anger was gone.
In fact, they have been married for so many years, and the fourth princess knows exactly what kind of person the fourth prince is.
So it was just a few words to tease him.
They were chatting and laughing here, but on the other side, Concubine Ying took the lead in attacking Lin Wanyi.
"I haven't seen my sister out of the palace for a long time. It must be hard to take care of the second princess every day."
After saying that, he picked up the wine glass and said to Lin Wanyi.
"Sister, here's a toast to you. Sister, you have to give me some face."
The harmonious coexistence between the palace and the concubines is a good thing.
Unfortunately, Lin Wanyi's current body was not suitable, so she declined politely.
"I am not good at drinking. I am afraid that I will not be able to enjoy myself with my wife."
If it were in the past, Lin Wanyi might have spoken softly.
