The regent is determined to get the daughter of a minor official.

Chapter 141 The Princess is Pregnant

Sheng Er no longer hesitated and accepted the order with a fist salute.

"I obey your orders, Princess, don't worry."

Xu Ke slowly got into the carriage with the help of Dingdang and Anxiang.

After returning to Prince Sheng's Mansion, Xu Ke's face was still pale and he collapsed on the bed.

Manager Yao and Nanny Wang rushed over upon hearing the news.

When they arrived at the door, Manager Yao felt it was not appropriate to enter the princess's bedroom, so he sent Nanny Wang to inquire first.

Nanny Wang went into the inner room.

He sat by the bed with a distressed look on his face, holding Xu Keke's hand.

"Princess, what on earth is going on? This old servant is terrified."

Xu Ke smiled weakly.

"Don't worry, Ma'am. I just ran into a mad bull on the street and got a little scared. I'm fine."

Nanny Wang was still terrified at this moment. If anything happened to the princess, the prince would come back and turn the Sheng Palace upside down.

She patted Xu Ke's hand gently, like coaxing a child.

"Princess, you are blessed with a long life and will surely turn misfortune into good fortune. I heard that you kept vomiting on the street. I guess you must be hungry now, right?

"May I have the kitchen prepare some soothing and nourishing soup for you?"

Xu Ke had no appetite at the moment, but it was difficult for him to refuse Nanny Wang's kindness.

Just as she was about to speak, her dressing maid Dingxiang came in.

"Princess, Chief Steward Yao sent me to ask about this. He said that Imperial Physician Zhang had just returned to the palace after visiting relatives.

Chief Steward Yao wants Doctor Zhang to come and take the princess's pulse so he can feel more at ease."

Upon hearing this, Nanny Wang was no longer in a hurry to go to the dining room and quickly continued.

"Princess, Doctor Zhang has returned just in time. You're still looking pale.

We should really ask Doctor Zhang to take your pulse. If you feel any discomfort, we can let you know in time."

Dingdang and Anxiang also nodded.

"Miss, please bear with me for a while. Dingdang will help you to the side room. Doctor Zhang will take your pulse. It won't take long. You can go back to bed and rest later."

They all look like they are protected national first-class animals.

Xu Ke was still quite touched.

The loyal servants in the palace are so simple and unpretentious.

She propped herself up and stood up. Feeling much better now, she no longer needed Dingdang and Anxiang's support.

He walked to the soft couch in the side room and sat down.

The budgies, unwilling to be lonely, also jumped around to make trouble.

"Beautiful, Princess, beautiful."

Nanny Wang seldom came to the princess's chamber, and this was the first time she heard the parrot speak.

Although he felt a little reluctant about the parrot, the most urgent thing at the moment was to take care of the princess's health.

Who has time to tease a bird?

She instructed Clove.

"Go and bring Doctor Zhang in."

Dingxiang took the order, walked out and quickly brought in Doctor Zhang who was carrying a medicine box.

"Your humble servant greets the princess."

Doctor Zhang bowed his head.

Xu Keke sat upright and saw Dingdang putting a layer of gauze on her wrist.

"Doctor Zhang, there's no need to be so polite. Come and take my pulse."

"Yes."

Doctor Zhang took down the medicine box and placed it on the ground beside him.

Then he walked to Xu Keke and half-knelt to take her pulse.

I closed my eyes and sensed it carefully for a while.

Doctor Zhang looked delighted.

"The princess's pulse is smooth, round and beady, and strong and swirling."

Nanny Wang urged.

"speak English."

Doctor Zhang immediately straightened his attitude and respectfully gave Xu Ke a bow.

He stretched out his arms, put his hands together in front of his chest, and then bent his body 30 degrees.

"Congratulations, Princess! Congratulations, Princess! You are pregnant!"

This news was like a thunderclap, shocking and delighting everyone present.

Nanny Wang clasped her hands together in excitement and said:

"This is the blessing of the Bodhisattva. This is a great joyous event for our palace! If the prince knew about this, he would be so happy!"

Dingdang and Anxiang also looked very happy.

This was the best news they had heard since the young lady and the prince got married.

Dingxiang couldn't wait to tell Manager Yao the good news.

Xu Keke was the most surprised, his mouth opened into a European shape.

The original owner had never conceived in her life, but she got pregnant so soon?

Could it be that I traveled through time and space and my ability is to treat infertility?

Look at how solemnly Doctor Zhang bowed to me just now. It doesn't seem like he was pretending!

Xu Ke thought about it carefully and realized that her period had indeed not come for some time.

I originally thought it was due to the busy work with the accounts in the mansion these days.

Now it seems that it is because of pregnancy.

She came back to her senses and reached out to gently touch her lower abdomen.

Then he waved his little hand with great passion.

"Reward, everyone in the mansion will give you a reward."

At this time, Nanny Wang, who was the first to regain her senses, hurriedly spoke.

"Princess, the prince is not at home right now. In my opinion, we need to be careful.

The princess's pregnancy was kept secret from outsiders and only known to the Empress Dowager in the palace.

To prevent the news from leaking out and causing some people to have bad intentions..."

Nanny Wang didn't continue speaking, but Xu Keke already understood.

People's hearts have always been unpredictable. Chu Musheng is not in the capital, so it is not safe to spread the news of her pregnancy at this time.

"Madam, you are so considerate. I was just too happy and didn't think too much.

But it is a great joy that I am pregnant with the prince's child, so why not do this!

Each of the people you know now will receive a reward, as will Manager Yao who is waiting outside.

In addition, all the guards who protected me on the street today will be rewarded. It is said that they have made great contributions to protecting their master and deserve the reward.

Each person will be rewarded with 20 taels of silver, and Imperial Physician Zhang will be rewarded with 50 taels of silver."

Nanny Wang nodded with satisfaction.

"Thank you, Master. I will make the arrangements right away. However, Princess, you are pregnant now, so you must be more careful in your actions and pay special attention to your diet and daily life."

Xu Ke agreed with a smile.

"Don't worry, Ma'am. I will be careful. From now on, I won't go out easily."

"In this case, I will be relieved."

Nanny Wang called Doctor Zhang and Dingxiang out.

As soon as I walked out of the hospital, I saw Manager Yao pacing back and forth anxiously with a frown on his face.

I saw Nanny Wang and the others coming out.

Manager Yao's eyes lit up, and he pulled Doctor Zhang's robe and asked.

"How is it, Princess, is everything alright?"

Doctor Zhang kept his mouth shut tightly. He was still waiting for a reward from Nanny Wang, so he didn't say much.

What if one tael of silver is deducted for every extra word you say?

Nanny Wang looked around to see that there was no one around, and whispered to Manager Yao.

"Something's going on, great news! The princess is pregnant... Hey, hey, hey, don't laugh... We have to keep this a secret.

All of you follow me to the accounting office to withdraw money. The princess is pregnant, so let's all share in the joy."

Manager Yao’s expression is very interesting!

The corners of my mouth couldn't help but rise, but I kept reminding myself not to smile, so the corners of my mouth pulled down.

He looked like a puppet that couldn't hold back its laughter.

He nodded quickly in response.

"Yes, yes, I'll listen to you, Mammy."

Several people went to the accounting office together.

Along the way, Manager Yao was so excited that his feet were running fast.

Thinking that a young master was about to be born in the palace, his lips trembled with excitement.

It was as if all the words he wanted to say were held back.

When they arrived at the accounting office, Nanny Wang asked the accountant for the money as Xu Keke had instructed.

Then they started to divide the spoils.

Yaju was also the princess's dressing maid, so she also had her share, and asked Dingxiang to pass it on to her.

Nanny Wang gave the reward money for the guards to Chief Steward Yao and asked him to be responsible for distributing it.
