I hid in Golden Lotus Palace and did not come out. Yan Hua would come looking for me in the future, but Princess Jingshu still often came to see me. From her, I learned that Yan Hua had recently often stayed in Chan Fei Palace, and planned to bathe in the fasts to bless Chan Fei's fetus in her womb. At the same time, in order to pacify the people within the palace, he posted an imperial edict that would widely attract scholars from all over the world. He hoped that this time, he could dispel this strange person and pacify everyone's hearts.

Not long after, a witch came to the palace, claiming that she knew of astronomical geography and was even more adept at understanding past and present lives. She came to the palace to explain to Yan Hua what had happened that night. Yan Hua summoned everyone from the harem to gather together. Listening to the witch's explanation, I was also invited.

The concubines in the palace were all very excited about the arrival of the witch, because of the recent panic, and the rumors had indeed caused a lot of trouble, so at this time a witch came to explain, and they naturally admired and respected her. However, Yan Hua's expression was very calm, as if he had summoned this witch to the palace just to prevent everyone from opening their mouth leisurely. When he saw me, he didn't show any expression. My eyes met his, and I quickly lowered my head.

Everyone was already seated, and the witch began to count. She wore a strange black ceremonial robe, her hair was white, and she looked both ancient and mysterious.

Yan Hua asked her, "Elder, five days ago, at midnight, there was a sudden flash of golden light in the sky above the palace. May I ask what is the reason?"

The witch closed her eyes, muttering to herself, and suddenly opened her eyes and said excitedly: "Reporting to Your Majesty, Golden Light Scales, Purple Qi from the East, this is a great fortune! May I ask your majesty, has there been any joyous news from the palace recently? "

Yan Hua pondered for a moment before looking at me and then at Chan Fei. "Elder, there are several happy events. I don't know which one of them elder would like to ask?"

The witch replied, "Of course it is the matter of the impending birth of the child of destiny in Cang Wu Country! The golden light from five days ago was the sign of fortune from heaven. Please forgive this old man for speaking bluntly, but may I ask if there is a Empress within the palace who is happy? "

Everyone was speechless after hearing the witch's words. Because Imperial Concubine Chan was pregnant and did not summon the world, this witch had always been wandering in the countryside outside the palace. She had only recently arrived at the palace, so how could she know that the palace lady was happy? This witch was really not an ordinary person.

Everyone's face revealed a joyful expression. Although the imperial concubines were both envious and jealous of Chan Fei's pregnancy, they were still very happy when they heard the witches say that Cang Wu Country was about to give birth to a child of destiny.

Chan Fei Fei's face became even redder, and she seemed a little excited, but at the same time, couldn't believe her ears: "The Child of Fate huh … Where does the elder start? "

The priestess replied, "Replying to the Empress, the palace will soon be full of joy. The prince of Cang Wu Country is about to be born, and he will be the one who brings good fortune to Cang Wu Country!"

After receiving the witch's confirmation, Chan Concubine could no longer conceal the joy in her eyes. Right now, there was only one concubine with a pregnant woman in the palace, the imperial concubine Chan. So, this witch meant that the imperial concubine Chan would definitely give birth to a prince in the future, and her son would be the one who would bring good fortune to Cang Wu Country in the future?

Chan Fei Fei could not suppress her joy, and even Yan Hua's face revealed a gentle expression. Looking at his expression, I don't know why, but I had a bad feeling about it.

At this time, the priestess confirmed Chan's pregnancy and revealed a joyous expression. She knelt down and loudly said, "Congratulations, Your Majesty! Congratulations, Lady Xi!"

In a hoarse and ancient voice, she announced her prophecy, establishing the status of the baby in the womb of the Chan Consort, and then, reverently touching her head to the ground, she expressed her loyalty to the Emperor.

When the others saw this, although they were unwilling, they too stood up and congratulated him. Yan Hua revealed a very happy expression. He immediately announced that the palace would hold three days of sacrificial ceremony, reporting it to the ancestors and announcing it to the entire country. He then spread the good news that Chan Fei was pregnant to Cang Wu Country, and immediately held a grand celebration for Chan Fei.

Because of this, the Chan Consort rose three levels in succession and became a consort. In the blink of an eye, she became the most popular consort within the palace. She replaced Yi Concubine, temporarily took in the six palaces, the majestic harem. From that day onwards, those who came to congratulate her at the Agarwood Palace simply crushed their brains and stepped on the doorstep.

Upon seeing this, the head palace maid from the Golden Lotus Palace also spoke to me, telling me to prepare a congratulatory gift to send to Fei Chan. After all, although I don't often interact with the consorts, I still have to be the future empress. I had no choice but to have someone prepare a congratulatory gift and send it over. However, after receiving the gift, Chan Fei personally came to visit me that day.

At the time, I was sitting alone on the osmanthus tree by the Golden Lotus Pond, drinking and worrying. I don't know why, but when Yan Hua showed that kind of gentle expression to Chan Fei that day, I actually had a very unpleasant feeling in my heart. He said that only his child and I would be the future crown prince, but now, after the witch calculated that Chan's child was Cang Wu Country's "Child of Fate", he changed his attitude towards Chan Fei. Not only did he often stay in Chan Concubine Palace, he even treated the child in her womb as the future crown prince … I don't know why I'm so upset, because I don't know what I'm feeling, so I'm even more depressed.

I was drinking on top of the osmanthus flower, but the Chan Consort came to visit me in person. She was pregnant and I felt sorry for her coming in person. I quickly jumped down from the tree.

Chan Concubine said to me with a smile: "Big Sister Bai Shu is not willing to move the Agarwood Palace, little sister is being bold today and can only personally come and disturb us. Big Sister, you won't mind, will you?"

I hastily waved my hands. "How could that be?" You are pregnant, so I should be the one visiting you. "

I had no intention of forming a clique with her, but Chan Fei smiled kindly at me. Furthermore, she was a pregnant woman. So, although I was a little displeased, I forced myself to hide it and called for the palace maid to make some tea for me. The Chan Consort called for the palace maids to withdraw, leaving only her and me at the scene, as well as a personal palace maid she had brought with her. She said, "Today, my sister came because she wanted to thank elder sister for her help. "Big sister Wu Bai, thank you very much!

She hinted at the matter of Yi Fei pushing her into the water. I didn't speak to her privately about that matter afterwards. Did she come here today to give me an explanation?

I replied, "The Empress has spoken too seriously." Actually, I didn't say anything back then.

Chan Fei's face revealed an expression of gratitude, "Even so, if it wasn't for elder sister's help, I'm afraid my situation would have been extremely dangerous. The child in my stomach and I wouldn't have lived until today."

As she spoke, she gently caressed her belly. Her eyes revealed a gentle expression that was unique to a mother. I was stunned for a moment, and suddenly felt touched.

However, being moved is being moved. I really didn't see it with my own eyes when Yi Fei pushed her into the water that day. Right now, Yi Fei is still in the palace, and although she hasn't been sent into the cold palace, she's pretty much in the same state as the cold palace.

I asked her, "What exactly happened that day?"

Chan Fei Fei's eyes suddenly turned red: "Elder sister will ask this, are you doubting me? Do you think that I was the one who deliberately framed Yi Fei when they fell into the water the other day? "

I looked at her in silence and did not answer. I'm not sure. Even though I have lived for more than three hundred years, everyone in the Heavenly Palace is kind and amiable towards me, and there is no conflict between them. Moreover, I once heard Master say that even though he has lived for tens of thousands of years, every time he travels to the mortal world, he is always extremely complicated and difficult to understand. Although he will not live more than a hundred years, his heart is the most difficult thing in the world. Master has lived for more than tens of thousands of years, so he couldn't see the human heart clearly, let alone me who was just a fledgling.
