The Prince of the Southeast's Heir Apparent's Consort had only just been diagnosed with a slippery pulse. She was less than two months pregnant, and her figure had barely changed.
By now, she, too, had realized there was something uncanny about Jian Ruonan and did not want to cross her.
"I've only just conceived. I doubt an examination would reveal anything, so let's forget it." The Prince of the Southeast's Heir Apparent's Consort held out her hand, and the maid behind her immediately helped her up.
"Your Majesty, I suddenly feel a little stifled and would like to stroll over there. Please excuse me."
With that, she prepared to make her escape.
The Prince of the Southeast's Heir Apparent's Consort: Hah! If I refuse to let you take my pulse, let's see what you can do to me!
The Empress was alarmed.
The juicy gossip was already at her lips. How could she let it get away?!
But the woman was pregnant and wanted a walk because she felt unwell. Even the Empress could not force her to stay!
The imperial consorts collectively turned toward Jian Ruonan: Living Bodhisattva, think of something, quick!!!
Teng: Shut the gates and unleash Fifth Sister!!
The Gossip Watchers' minds were racing, but they did not dare stare at Jian Ruonan. They could only pray silently.
Jian Ruonan leisurely held her teacup and cast a casual glance at the Heir Apparent's Consort before saying, "You're carrying a son."
The Prince of the Southeast's Heir Apparent's Consort paused, a smile appearing at the corners of her mouth.
A son for her first child-what tremendous good fortune.
The Prince of the Southeast's Heir Apparent's Consort pursed her lips, considering staying to hear more.
[Ah, what a pity!]
The capital officials' wives: What's a pity?
