about this and hope you are prepared."Dr. Zhao stopped there, and immediately the couple Zhao Fenglin left the doctor's office. After visiting Zhao Xianrou who was still asleep, the two returned to th...Mrs. Xia spoke with great conviction. As a woman, she understood women's hearts well. Perhaps before, Cui Zhi agreed to marry in place of Xia Qingran out of fear, but after getting used to the luxurious life, how could she be willing to go back to a hard life

Moreover, the other party is already pregnant now. The child in her belly is something she cannot give up. If she can give birth to a boy, there will still be a chance to take that position in the future. Who wouldn't gamble on that

Xia Fuzhang, having heard his wife's explanation, gave up on the idea of confronting General Meng. After all, he was far from the palace and had no say in what happened there.

Xia Fuzhang paid no attention to his own illegitimate daughter, only listening briefly when General Meng mentioned her situation. He didn't say much else, which made General Meng feel a bit uncomfortable.

"Xia Fuzhang, Ripple"

"General, all I need to know is that she's safe. I don't need to hear anything else. The less we say, the better we'll hide things, and our child will be safer."

Xia Fuzhang was very good at adding drama to himself, and what he said was sincere. He impressed General Meng quite a bit. The other party didn't show any intention of taking credit at all.

But when Madam Meng heard General Meng's words, she let out a cold snort and said:

"He now says that nothing he does will affect the course of events. His daughter will surely prosper in the future, so will she really not acknowledge him as her biological father I'm afraid that by then, both openly and secretly, she will be taking care of her own parents."

"It's done, nothing more can be said. We were forced into this situation at the time. This was our only option. To keep the Meng family safe, we had to make some sacrifices."

General Meng is quite open-minded.

"I naturally understand my husband's predicament, I only hope that girl doesn't cause trouble, and doesn't bring misfortune to the Meng family."

Lady Meng sighed and summarized.

Far away in the Imperial Palace, Lian Yi sneezed, causing Lan Zhi, who was attending to him, to be extremely nervous. She immediately ran out to call Liang Taiyi. Right now, nothing mattered more than her master's health.

Mainly, as the months progressed, Lian Ri's belly grew larger and larger. She could no longer see her toes even when standing straight, and it was quite frightening to look at. Her food, clothing, housing, and transportation all had to be attended to by others; she found it difficult to do anything independently.

Her belly is now the center of attention, with so many people watching her that everyone around her gets nervous if she even moves slightly.

Lian'er rubbed her nose, feeling fine. She guessed someone must be thinking of her. The only person she could think of was the Meng family far away at the border. She wondered what their reaction would be after Cai Mama relayed her words back to them.

The hurried Liang Taiyi carefully took Lian Yi's pulse and said everything was normal. It was just because she was carrying twins, there was a high possibility of premature birth, so everyone around her should take good care of her. He didn't say much else.

With a loving smile, the ripples touched her stomach and said:

"These two kids have been pretty good, not too much trouble, except for the first four months when they were a bit more demanding. After that, these last four months have been very calm."

"The Crown Princess is following the doctor's orders and taking good care of herself, so the child will be healthy."

Dr. Liang said insincerely.

He knows best what kind of medicine he's taking, and that while the Crown Princess looks healthy now and the child is growing well, this comes at the cost of her own blood and life. It's a temporary effect achieved by draining her essence.

Once she's in production, it's her time to go. So now he really is on call 24/7, not daring to be even the slightest bit negligent, at least making sure she lives comfortably before she leaves.

Although he has a heart like a parent, the imperial decree cannot be disobeyed. All he can do is make sure the Crown Princess's passing is comfortable and painless.

Lan Ri looked at the person bowing deeply before her, not even daring to look at her own attending physician Liang. She just smiled faintly and said:

"Thank you for your hard work, Doctor Liang. When the child is born, this concubine will have the Crown Prince grant you a period of leave."

"I dare not take credit for this; it is merely my duty as a minister."

After Liang Taiyi's retirement, Lan Zhi helped her take a slow walk around the courtyard. Although she had a big belly, in order to make childbirth easier, exercise was increasingly important as delivery approached. This principle applies both in ancient times and in modern times.

When ripples was walking in the courtyard, she just communicated with Dodo:

"Master, now there are several factions who have each shown their powers and started to buy people around you. The midwives, maidservants, eunuchs, even the delivery room prepared for you in advance, someone has interfered."

Dodo's voice was a little excited.

Liàn Yī said helplessly:

"Duo Duo, why do I feel like you're very excited"

"Hee hee, isn't this a good show Watching these clowns perform is quite entertaining."

"When that time comes, be more vigilant. Don't let my child in my belly become a ghost again. It's not easy for me to earn merit."

The ripples spoke immediately.

"Don't worry, master. I will definitely protect you and the child in your belly. However, if Hurricane can come out, we can work together perfectly – still and moving."

Dodo knew her weakness and immediately said.

After all, as a plant, she can't run around. It's not that she can't run, but she's afraid of being seen and mistaken for a monster, especially if she appears in the East Palace. That would give those with ill intentions a handle on her, so she needs the support of the whirlwind.

"Rest assured, in two days I'll unleash the whirlwind."

The typhoon is now infinitely close to the fifth rank. If he experiences the Divine Tribulation, he can transform into a human form. However, the speed at which the ripples of the previous cultivation plane completed their mission was too fast, and the time they stayed was not long. The typhoon's accumulation was not enough, so when he returned to space, he remained at the peak of the fourth rank late stage.

Ripple doesn't want to force things, so she lets Cyclone cultivate step by step. That's why he hasn't transformed yet, but appearing as a kitten is fine.

Having received ripples' promise, Doudou no longer bothered the master, but instead mobilized all the plants in the courtyard to keep an eye on those troublemakers.

Three days later, Lian'yi said that she felt stifled in the East Palace, so she took a large group of people to stroll through the Imperial Garden. Then, by pure coincidence, she saw a small black kitten on top of a gazebo, unable to figure out how it got up there and couldn't get down. It was meowing pitifully.

The ripples naturally felt compassion, because she was pregnant and wanted to accumulate blessings for the child in her womb. She also didn't want to watch a small life disappear before her eyes. So she ordered the eunuch to save the cat and gave it the name "Whirlwind." It stayed in the East Palace with her to keep her company.

In the days that followed, Whirlwind also put in effort to impress everyone, making himself liked by all. He lived a comfortable life, but whenever someone with ill intentions approached Ripple, Whirlwind would put on an aggressive stance, causing Ripple to praise Whirlwind greatly in front of others. This inadvertently elevated Whirlwind's status.

When ripples was nine months pregnant, she felt the baby was coming. So when the prince came to keep her company for dinner, and after she had eaten and drunk her fill, she put her hand on her belly and said that she was going into labor.

"Hurry, help the Crown Princess inside! Please have Doctor Liang waiting!"

"Qianfu, go and tell Father Emperor and Empress Dowager!"

The prince arranged everything calmly and methodically.

Ripples then took the prince's hand, saying with a sigh:

"My lord, I am afraid," come to take me away.Wu Yishan's pupils constricted after hearing Lian Yi's words. He thought that with his son's personality, he wouldn't take the initiative to contact the Du family. Unexpectedly,...
