Due to the shock from Wang Rong and the fear of being pregnant, the Mid-Autumn Festival could only be held in the palace. Zhu Yijun sent a message to the Imperial Lower Consort Yang to host the Mid-Autumn Festival, and to take care of the matters at hand so that the empress would not disturb the process of nurturing the fetus.

Zhu Yijun was so careful that rumors started flying and said that the Queen's womb might not be good.

She was worried that in her anxiousness, Wang Rong would send a gift to Wuyou to deliver to the Palace. She would also explain to the old lady that the Empress was fine, it was just that His Majesty wasn't willing to distract her for now. After the Mid-Autumn Festival, the Empress would invite the old lady to the palace.

"Did something happen to the Empress?" Why would she suddenly have to be nurtured when she's still well and healthy? " the old lady asked hesitantly.

"Old Feng, don't ask anymore. There are too many things I can't say either. The Empress was afraid that the Esteemed Empress might be worried, so she specially ordered me to come out and let the Esteemed Empress be at ease. Right now, the Empress is safe and sound. " Wuyou said.

"It's good that you're fine." The old lady said that she could not be at ease if she did not personally see Wang Rong and her, but since Wuyou had already said so, she could only press down the question.

"All of you have to serve the Empress well." the old lady asked. Sigh, I won't be able to find him if I don't get sick. The last group of people that will go to Jiangnan will also come and return empty-handed. "Don't tell this to the Empress for now. Wait until the Empress gives birth and your emotions stabilize, then you can slowly tell her."

"Yes." Wuyou replied.

Since she needed to be in bed to recuperate, she did not go to the Peace Palace to pay respects to the empress dowager nor the imperial concubine. Even during the Mid-Autumn Festival, Wang Rong was only able to appear for a short while.

However, the official was much more at ease when he saw that the empress's stomach was still in good shape. His Majesty was in despair. It would not be a good thing if anything happened to the empress.

When the imperial harem saw the stomach of the empress, on the surface, it seemed like it was rejoicing, but no one knew how it felt inside.

After returning to the palace, Zhu Yijun still stayed at the Kunning Palace every day. All the women of the harem looked at the direction of the Kunning Palace with grief in their eyes, saying that the empress was virtuous and virtuous, magnanimous, after being pregnant for such a long time, they had always been with the Emperor.

The Empress Dowager Li called Xu Duzhong over and asked him bluntly if the empress' unsteady birth was caused by his sharing a bed with the emperor. Xu Duzhong could only answer honestly, no, the Empress and Her Majesty were not in the same room.

"His Majesty sleeps in the same bed as the empress every day. Don't try to deceive This Dowager. Is it because This Dowager is sharing a room with someone else? This Dowager will look for another imperial physician." Empress Dowager Li deterred him.

"If Esteemed Empress Dowager does not believe this humble subject's words, then let our other comrades go and take over the following empress's veins." Xu Duzhong said as he bent his body.

Seeing that Xu Duzhong still did not want to let go, the Empress Dowager Li let him go. She spread the rumours about Imperial Hospital and had the three doctors conduct a consultation to find out what the empress was sick of.

Zhu Yijun hurried over to Ci'an Palace. "Imperial Mother, what is the reason for this?"

Although you trust Xu Duzhong, the rest of the imperial doctors in Imperial Hospital are not just for show. One of them is short, the other two are long. The Empress Dowager Li said, "This one just wants the empress to have a good birth."

"Empress, I and I appreciate your kindness, but Empress's current situation is special. She's already used to Xu Duzhong's pulse, so she suddenly went to visit three doctors she didn't know. She thought there was something wrong with the child in her, and was extremely nervous." Zhu Yijun said.

After Zhu Yijun left, the female official brought the imperial physician to diagnose the situation. The Queen's pulse was unstable due to her shock and fright, so the Empress Dowager Li ordered for the diagnosis to be made. "What happened to the Queen at the Ying Tai? She is not someone who is unstable. "

"He said he was scared by a mama's hysteria." The palace maid said.

"There must be something else. Go check it out." The Empress Dowager Li said.

She raised her teacup, thinking of the emperor's words and actions. "If they weren't in the same room, how could His Majesty endure lying in bed with the empress for months?"

"Your Majesty should be very fond of empress." The palace maid said.

The Empress Dowager Li frowned, "Empress doesn't need love, as long as there is respect. The empress won't be as sensible as she was when we first entered the palace. " Empress Dowager Li had been extremely dissatisfied with Wang Rong and her son these past few months, but she remembered that she would only plan on doing so after the Queen gave birth.

Zhu Yijun was worried that Wang Rong would always wake up in the middle of the night and not be able to sleep after waking up. When Zhu Yijun woke up vaguely, Wang Rong advised him, "Go to sleep, your majesty.

Zhu Yijun tiredly held Wang Rong He's hand in front of his chest, "You can't sleep, we'll keep you company."

"Your Majesty, I've woken up in the middle of the night. I can still make up my sleep by day." Wang Rong He said, "Your majesty speaks to me like this every night, it's so haggard to describe it."

"Can we invite our Bi Qiuni to the Kunning Palace to read you the scriptures for a few days?" Zhu Yijun said, "You're too soft-hearted. "Next time, let us settle this matter for you."

Wang Rong He looked at Zhu Yijun's side view and really wanted to say that she was not soft-hearted.

Wang Rong leaned on Zhu Yijun's shoulder and said, "Whatever Your Majesty says is fine. I also want to come out earlier so that His Majesty won't be so worried. "

Zhu Yijun still had his eyes closed, but after hearing what he said he smiled, and pinched Wang Rong's finger, "Be good."

Bi Qiuni read the scripture in his Kunning Palace for three days without stopping. Wang Rong lay on her bed, listening to the illusory sounds of the scriptures. She dreamt for the whole night, sometimes in the clouds, sometimes in the water.

After that, in order to divert Wang Rong's attention, Zhu Yijun said, "The Palace Manager's Bureau has already picked twenty mistresses from outside the palace. Do you want to take a look?"

"Why are there so many choices?" Wang Rong was surprised to hear the numbers.

"Not all of them. Pick a few that are elected and a few for backup. The rest can be returned." Zhu Yijun said, "Actually, I think drinking tiger milk is pretty good too."

"Your Majesty, you must not be reckless." Wang Rong He said, "If I had any, I would like to personally feed the baby, any tiger milk, no mother's milk."

"Only a common woman would personally feed him. Even if he had some background, it would still be because he invited her. How could you have the thought of feeding him yourself?" Zhu Yijun said.

Wang Rong and she shook her head. She thought that since she had given birth to a child, he would be able to drink her milk. They should be the closest people to each other, but the current rules were different. His wife's main responsibility was to serve his husband. If there was a family, Yu Yu would hire someone to take care of his child, which was also to show his identity. These qualities were magnified in the court. The empress and concubines were both His Majesty's women with esteemed status. The first was that His Majesty should be served, and the second was that they were worried that the prince and her mother were too intimate. The prince was the heir to the imperial court and was attached to her mother. He was indecisive and indecisive, with her mother taking the lead as the leader. This was not a good thing.

It is inhumane to ask a nurse or to deprive a mother of her natural desire to feed.

And all princes will treat their wet nurse well when they grow up. A prince was like a vassal to his parents when he reached adulthood, but most of them would bring a wet nurse along with them when they bid farewell to their father and mother. If the Crown Prince ascended the throne, the Crown Prince's wet nurse would be filled with trust and authority.

A wet nurse raised him with milk instead of giving birth to him. He was also half a mother.

This was something Wang Rong couldn't tolerate. A mother's desire for the exclusive of her children sometimes outweighs that of a wife for her husband.

Zhu Yijun looked at Wang Rong He, "From the Han Dynasty onwards, there has been no rule for the empress to feed you.

"Your Majesty, you have so many things to take care of every day. Don't worry about these trivial matters." Wang Rong said with a smile. She secretly fed him, but he would never know.
