I insist

Chapter 565: Pregnancy

Over the next few days, Yu Huailin and Song Miqiu went out to play on their own, and no one dared to disturb them. After this incident, Lord Shen completely gave up the idea of ​​sending his daughter to the palace.

"It's best not to let our daughter enter the palace. Judging from the Emperor's attitude, Song Miqiu is the only one for him in this life, and we are no match for him."

"We've already displeased the Emperor with what happened before. To avoid him arranging a marriage for our daughter, let's find someone of equal social standing ourselves."

Lord Shen sat to one side, looked at Madam Shen, and gave her instructions in a low voice.

Madam Shen frowned, but she was still unwilling to give up: "Let's wait and see. Maybe the Emperor will get tired of Song Miqiu someday, and that will be our chance."

"Didn't you notice the Emperor's attitude? He won't compromise. And even if he did compromise, do you know when? If it were only a year, that would be fine..."

What if it's many years later? What will we do then? Are we really going to let our daughter become an old maid? Just wait for others to laugh at us?

"Are we just going to give up like this? Didn't you say before that you wouldn't give up? In any case, we still have to wait. After all, the Emperor and Song Miqiu haven't been married for very long."

Song Miqiu had saved the Emperor's life, and if the Emperor were to allow a new concubine into the palace immediately after his marriage, Song Miqiu would certainly be dissatisfied. However, this doesn't mean the Emperor didn't have such intentions.

Let's wait a little longer. We need to know what the Emperor really means. When he says it's only Song Miqiu, is it his own wish, or something else?

Madam Shen naturally didn't want her daughter to become an old maid, but she was determined to give it a try.

Lord Shen nodded slightly: "Very well, since you've said so, then I won't say anything more. At most, one year. If the Emperor is still like this after one year,..."

Then you must find a suitable match for your daughter and marry her off. But I'm worried that the Emperor might bestow a marriage upon her.

Thinking of this, Lord Shen sighed.

Song Miqiu and Yu Huailin were quite relaxed and at ease during this time, since no one was bothering them.

That day, Song Miqiu did not go out, but instead waited for Yu Huailin to return at the camp.

Perhaps because she wasn't there, Yu Huailin returned quickly, bringing with him a lot of prey, which he showed to her.

"Qiu'er, look, aren't I amazing? I've got everyone grilling all this in no time, so I can grill meat for you," Yu Huailin said with a smile.

Song Miqiu laughed too: "You're really amazing, but I'd still prefer to eat the ones you grill yourself. You're not going to tell me you can't grill these, are you?"

“I’ll make whatever my wife wants to eat, of course. Just wait and see,” Yu Huailin said.

After saying this, Yu Huailin went to find someone to start a fire and began to roast meat for Song Miqiu. After it was roasted, he specially asked someone to bring it to Song Miqiu to eat.

Song Miqiu excitedly picked up the meat and started eating, but after just one bite, he spat it out and gagged a few times.

"Your Highness, are you alright? Why did you vomit? Are you feeling unwell anywhere?"

The palace maid helped Song Miqiu up and asked with great concern.

Upon hearing the voice, Yu Huailin quickly came over, reached out and hugged Song Miqiu tightly, looking very worried.

"What's wrong? Is the meat not tasty? Then don't eat it. Are you alright? Is anything bothering you?"

"It's okay, don't worry. It's just that eating this meat makes me feel a little nauseous. Maybe it's because I haven't eaten it for a long time, so I'm not used to it."

Just after Song Miqiu finished speaking, he gagged a few more times, and looked to be in great pain.

Looking at her, the palace maid cautiously asked, "Your Highness, is it possible that you're not just having trouble adjusting, but that you might be pregnant?"

Yu Huailin looked at Song Miqiu with surprise, wanting to get the answer from her.

After being reminded by a palace maid, Song Miqiu recalled for a moment: "It's possible, but I'm not sure."

"Someone, go and summon Physician Ming to me, immediately."

Upon hearing this, Yu Huailin excitedly shouted to the servants, then carried Song Miqiu back to the tent, unable to hide the smile on his face.

Seeing his smile, Song Miqiu couldn't help but twitch her lips as well. She secretly checked with the system and found that she was indeed pregnant.

Soon Ming Taicheng arrived. Upon seeing him, Yu Huailin quickly said, "Take a look at the Empress and find out what's going on. Hurry up."

Ming Taicheng walked up to Song Miqiu, intending to say something to her, but seeing Yu Huailin staring at him menacingly, he said nothing and obediently took her pulse.

After taking her pulse, Ming Taicheng was also very happy. He stood up and said to Yu Huailin, "Congratulations, Your Majesty! Congratulations, Your Majesty the Empress! Your Majesty is pregnant!"

Upon hearing the news, Yu Huailin was momentarily stunned, but kept grinning foolishly.

Upon seeing Yu Huailin's state, Ming Taicheng immediately took his leave, fearing that Yu Huailin would try to silence him once he came to his senses. After all, no one could be allowed to know that the emperor was grinning foolishly.

After seeing Ming Taicheng leave, Song Miqiu focused her gaze on her stomach, and then looked at Yu Huailin.

"Yu Huailin, what's with your reaction? Are you overjoyed?" Song Miqiu reminded him.

Upon hearing this, Yu Huailin snapped out of his daze and excitedly hugged Song Miqiu, saying, "Yes, I was overjoyed. I'm going to be a father! We're having a child!"

"She's our child, our bloodline, Qiu'er, do you know? I'm so happy, and I know our family will be very happy from now on."

The news of Song Miqiu's pregnancy quickly spread throughout the camp, and everyone thought she was incredibly lucky.

"The Empress is so lucky! She's pregnant. If she gives birth to a boy, she might even be guaranteed the position of Crown Prince. I'm so envious."

"Yes, the Emperor loves her so much, and now she's pregnant. It seems we have no chance at all."

"No way. The Empress is pregnant and cannot serve the Emperor. Do you think the Emperor can tolerate that? The Emperor will not abstain from sex for the sake of the Empress."

Madam Shen had been listening attentively the whole time, and the last sentence suddenly made her see the light. She quickly returned to her tent.

"Didn't you say there was no chance before? Well, this opportunity has finally arrived," Madam Shen said, looking at Lord Shen.

Lord Shen frowned slightly: "Are you referring to the Empress's pregnancy? You're overthinking it. The Emperor won't touch other women, and he'll keep your thoughts to yourself."

Even if someone deliberately seduces the Emperor, it cannot be a daughter of the Shen family. The Shen family's century-old reputation cannot be ruined in our hands.

"I know, and I didn't intend for my daughter to resort to such underhanded methods. I just thought that if the Emperor really favored other women..."

Then our daughter will have a chance, and we must seize this opportunity.
