62 62. Summons from the Imperial Brother. (1/2)
Yu Fengyan looked very happy to hear the good news from Song Muli. Finally, after marrying his legal wife for several years, he will become a father. Although Yu Fengyan was a prince, Song Muli was the only woman he slept with. He never slept with anyone other than his wife until the young woman who set him up made him do that intimate thing even though in his imagination under stimulant drugs, Yu Fengyan thought he slept with his wife.
”This news must be shared with everyone because Empress is pregnant now.” Zheng Yuan; the Palace head eunuch looks happy.
As Empress' Senior brother, this young man wanted to tell the news of Song Muli's pregnancy to the young woman's family side. Since choosing to marry Emperor Yu Fengyan over her family side opinions, Song Muli broke up with her family side who are staying in the area where Tianji School is located. Perhaps using the news of Song Muli's pregnancy now, the woman's family side would be willing to improve their tenuous relationship.
”We can't! We cannot tell about the Empress pregnancy to the public.” Emperor does not seem to want to tell the news about Empress's pregnancy to the public.
”Why doesn't His Majesty want to tell others about Empress's pregnancy? If the royal ministers know about the news of Empress's pregnancy, they will surely be happy because His Majesty will soon have a royal child. ”
”Have you forgotten, Zheng Yuan? Now in the Palace, there is Concubine Ming. If that poisoned young woman knew that Empress was pregnant with my royal child ahead of her, what would that young woman have planned? This Emperor doesn't want to harm Empress because of this news.”
Zheng Yuan looked thoughtful. Emperor's words have a point. If Su Mingmei knew of Empress's pregnancy, the young woman would try to get rid of the fetus inside Empress's body. The young woman might not dare to kill Empress directly, but causing Empress to miscarry, that woman would try to do it.
”So, will Your Majesty keep it a secret from the public?””For the time being, yes.”
”What about Empress Dowager and Yu Wang, will Your Majesty keep it a secret from them too?”
”Of course not. This Emperor will tell them. They can certainly help this Emperor keep this secret inside the Palace.”
”Yes, this eunuchs also believe they can keep this secret for Your Majesty.”
”Zheng Yuan, this Emperor wants you to immediately call Yu Wang to the Palace and meet this Emperor.”
”This late in the night, Your Majesty?”
”Yes, this is urgent. Yu Wang must know about this great news as soon as possible. Maybe this Emperor can also ask for some elite escort team from Yu Wang to help protect Empress's safety. ”
”Keeping Empress safe? Aren't Empress's bodyguards strong enough? All Empress guards come from the Tianji School. ”
