Quick Transmigration: The Rise of a Favored Concubine

Chapter 158 The Rough-Hearted Emperor and the Delicate Imperial Concubine 16

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, the Lady has given birth! It's a little prince!" Xiao Tao's voice came from afar.

Chu Yue looked delighted and walked outside. Her mother was doing very well during this pregnancy. She had also secretly asked Ling Ling Yi for some props to protect Li Shi's body so that she could give birth to the child smoothly. That was better than anything else.

"Your Highness, please slow down, or you'll feel dizzy again." Xiaoju quickly helped her up.

Chu Yue greeted Xiao Tao, once again confirming with delight, "Mother gave birth? Is she alright?"

When Li was eight months pregnant, Chu Yue went out of the palace to visit her again, as she was also thinking about this matter.

"Your Majesty, please rest assured, the Madam is fine, and the young master is also doing well. The Prime Minister was overjoyed. As soon as the Madam gave birth smoothly, he immediately sent someone to the palace to deliver the message." Xiao Tao was also happy.

"Good, that's good, that's good." Chu Yue was so happy she almost cried. She clutched her chest. "Let's go see His Majesty... I want to..."

Before she could finish speaking, she felt dizzy, her body went limp, and she collapsed.

"Your Majesty!" Xiao Tao and Xiao Ju were terrified and immediately supported her, shouting in panic.

"Quickly, someone come here! Summon the imperial physician! Her Majesty has fainted."

Yufu Palace was thrown into chaos again, with people summoning imperial physicians and reporting to the emperor.

Xiao Tao and Xiao Ju had no idea how she could have fainted so suddenly when she had been perfectly fine just moments before.

He assumed she was feeling unwell again and stayed by her side anxiously.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, something terrible has happened! Consort Rou has fainted!"

Xiao Caizi could hardly believe the news he had just heard: Consort Rou had fainted. What on earth happened?

"Explain yourself!" The emperor frowned deeply. How could Consort Rou have fainted!

"A messenger from Yufu Palace came to say that Consort Rou suddenly fainted for some unknown reason, and the imperial physician has been summoned."

Xiao Caizi explained.

The emperor felt a slight panic. In recent times, Consort Rou had clearly improved a lot, and her pulse had been checked every three days. The imperial physicians had always given good news. Why did she suddenly faint again?

He rushed to Yufu Palace in a great hurry, and upon entering the inner hall, he saw that Consort Rou was still unconscious.

"What exactly happened?" the emperor asked in a low voice.

Xiao Tao and Xiao Ju couldn't help but sway, and explained in a trembling voice, "Your Majesty, Her Majesty fainted today upon learning that the Lady had given birth smoothly."

"Your Majesty, the imperial physician has arrived," Xiao Caizi reported at the opportune moment.

The emperor, his face grim, said, "Come in."

The imperial physician wiped his sweat and respectfully greeted His Majesty: "Your Majesty, I pay my respects..."

"Show it to Consort Rou."

"Yes……"

The imperial physician reached out to take the emperor's pulse. The hall was very quiet, and the emperor stared intently at the physician.

After a while, the imperial physician withdrew his hand and smiled, "Your Majesty, Consort Rou is pregnant and couldn't bear it, which is why she fainted."

"Consort Rou is pregnant?" The Emperor was slightly shocked, his tone somewhat surprised.

"Yes, it has been more than a month," the imperial physician replied.

The emperor couldn't help but smile: "Good, there will be a reward, everyone will be rewarded." It was truly worth all his hard work; Consort Rou had finally been rewarded.

"Thank you, Your Majesty..."

"How is Consort Rou's health?"

"Your Majesty, the Empress is somewhat weak, but with careful care, there will be no problem," the imperial physician replied respectfully.

The emperor was relieved: "Go and prescribe medicine for Consort Rou."

"Yes……"

The Jade Hibiscus Palace was instantly filled with joy, and all the palace servants received rewards.

Chu Yue slept for a long time before waking up. When she opened her eyes, she found herself lying in bed.

For a moment she was in a daze before she remembered that her mother had given birth to a younger brother, and she planned to ask His Majesty to let her leave the palace to see her mother.

"My beloved concubine, you're awake," the emperor's gentle voice rang out.

Chu Yue looked over and spoke softly, "Your Majesty... Your concubine..."

"Lie still and don't move around. You fainted earlier, are you still feeling unwell?" The emperor looked at her with affection, worried about her, so he stayed here the whole time.

"Your Majesty, I am no longer in pain. I have something I want to tell you. I wish to leave the palace. My mother has given birth to my younger brother," Chu Yue sat up, grabbed his sleeve, her tone somewhat urgent, and her eyes filled with expectation: "Your Majesty, is that alright?"

"I'm afraid that won't work." The emperor was startled by her actions and quickly put his arm around her.

Chu Yue's eyes immediately filled with sorrow. How could His Majesty refuse her when he always granted her every request?

Seeing the beauty's aggrieved expression, the emperor couldn't bear it, but it was really not suitable for her to run around now.

"The imperial physician came to examine your pulse and said you are pregnant, which is why you fainted. Your health is weak, so you need to take good care of yourself," the emperor said gently.

Chu Yue's eyes widened: "I'm pregnant?"

"My beloved consort has rendered meritorious service, and I will reward you. What do you desire?" The emperor embraced her with one arm and placed the other on her abdomen, his tone tender and affectionate.

"Your Majesty... it's my duty." Chu Yue's eyes welled up with tears of joy: "I thought I was not fortunate enough to bear Your Majesty any children, but I never expected... it's all thanks to Your Majesty."

"Haha, well said. Without my efforts, my beloved concubine wouldn't have been able to conceive." The emperor was in a good mood and wanted to tease her a little.

Chu Yue blushed. This rough nature of his was truly...

It's a bit of a shame, though, because she's pregnant now, and His Majesty definitely won't let her leave the palace, so she won't be able to see her mother and younger brother.

"Once the Prime Minister's wife is a month pregnant, let her come to the palace to see you." By then, her pregnancy will be more stable, but now, no matter what, we can't let her run around.

"Your Majesty, I understand. Thank you..." Chu Yue could only agree; she was not going to leave.

"I'll rest with you for a while."

"it is good……"

Prime Minister's Mansion

Li was lying in bed, her face still a little pale, with her newborn son lying next to her.

She's already been taken to be nursed by the wet nurse and is now sleeping soundly.

The prime minister walked in quietly, and his smile never stopped as he looked at the mother and son.

"Brother Xuan..." Li's voice was still a little hoarse; her throat was sore from shouting during childbirth.

The Prime Minister sat by the bed and held her hand: "Madam, you've had a long and arduous journey."

Li smiled and shook her head gently. She hadn't expected Yue'er to be right; she had indeed given birth to a younger brother.

"Madam, I have good news for you. Yue'er is pregnant. She originally wanted to leave the palace to see you, but because she is pregnant, His Majesty is worried about her leaving the palace. We will go to see her after you have finished your confinement."

The Prime Minister's smile deepened; what could be more gratifying than this?

"Yue'er is pregnant? How is she? Is she alright?" Li was surprised and tried to sit up, but accidentally pulled down her lower body, causing her to wince in pain and turn pale.

"Madam, please don't get excited. You just gave birth, so please take care of yourself. Yue'er is fine, and His Majesty is very happy. He has already instructed people to take good care of her."

The prime minister quickly helped her up.

Li felt somewhat guilty. Yue'er had been pampered since childhood, and now that she was pregnant, she didn't know if she could handle it. But she couldn't do anything right now and needed someone to take care of her.

"Madam, don't worry. There are people taking care of Yue'er. I'll be at ease as long as you're well."

The prime minister noticed her worry and gently comforted her.

“Okay…” Li nodded and lay down again. She was tired and wanted to rest.

The Prime Minister happily accompanied the mother and son.
