Chapter 1093 - 1088: Pregnant
Chapter 1093: Chapter 1088: Pregnant"Right, how is the investigation going?"
Su Pan’er diverted the topic.
"Humph humph humph!"
The rascal pig snorted continuously, "I found out. To thoroughly investigate this matter, I, Grandpa Pig, have endured so much hardship, almost turning over every single person in the Imperial Palace. You have no idea; it’s easy to
"Oh, very good, you’re pregnant..." Su Pan’er casually nodded and repeated, then the next moment, her face changed drastically, "What? What did you just say? I didn’t hear you clearly!"
Perhaps due to speaking out the first time, Liu Xuan’er seemed more relaxed when she spoke again. She looked up at Su Pan’er and then bowed again, "Your Highness the Empress, this servant is pregnant. It’s His Majesty’s child!"
Su Pan’er staggered back three steps, suddenly slumped into a chair, her face deathly pale as she stared at Liu Xuan’er, as if she didn’t recognize her.
After a long while, she leaned forward again; "Say it once more!"
"Reporting to Your Highness, this servant is pregnant. The child is already two months along."
This time, Liu Xuan’er spoke even more smoothly.
"Impossible! You must be deceiving me, aren’t you?"
Su Pan’er asserted, suddenly lunging forward and grabbing her hand.
The pulse phase was steady, strong and powerful, causing Su Pan’er to swallow the words she was about to say and staring into Liu Xuan’er’s eyes, she narrowed her eyes slightly.
The sound of teeth grinding came through, "Do you know that deceiving the emperor is a crime punishable by the extermination of nine clans?"
"Your Highness, this servant understands, but this servant is willing to share His Majesty’s worries, willing to share Your Highness’s worries."
Liu Xuan’er’s eyes shone with a bright light, "Your Highness, once this servant gives birth to the child in her womb, all those rumors out there will fall apart of their own accord, and it can also relieve His Majesty of the danger. By then..."
Liu Xuan’er had no certainty in her heart; she was making a gamble!
A gamble for a future, her success or failure hinged on a single word from the Empress.
"You better think clearly about this!" She gazed into her eyes.
Liu Xuan’er nodded slightly, "This servant has thought it through."
"Good."
Su Pan’er, instead, sat back down in her chair, quietly observing her. After the initial shock passed, she calmed down and then said with a smile, "How rare, how rare, since you, little sister, are with child, just focus on keeping yourself well from now on. Tomorrow, I will report this to His Majesty and have your allowance increased. No doubt, sister’s rank should also move up."
Liu Xuan’er blushed shyly, bowing slowly, "This servant thanks Your Highness for your generous love!"
Su Pan’er generously accepted her courtesy, "Hmm, by the way, how many months along is the child?"
"Already more than two months. The Imperial Physician said the child is doing very well."
Liu Xuan’er gently stroked her belly, her face full of smiles.
"Very well, you go back and take good care of yourself. Later, I will send someone to deliver your allowance."
"Thank you, Your Highness."
Liu Xuan’er left, happily thanking Su Pan’er with light steps.
As soon as she left, Qingwen jumped out from behind, "Your Highness, that Liu Xuan’er doesn’t take you seriously at all! How detestable!"
Nanny Xiao’s face turned as white as a sheet, "She’s pregnant too, if... what shall we do?"
"What’s there to fear, we’ll resist the soldiers with the generals and the water with the earth."
Su Pan’er said indifferently, getting up and walking into the study.
Qingwen stomped her feet anxiously, "Your Highness, how... how can you be so unruffled?"
"What is there for me to be anxious about?"
Su Pan’er found it amusing, "That Liu Xuan’er is still a virgin!"
