Nanny Tao refused to stand up.

A moment later, Empress Xiande sighed and said, “Forget it. Lu Jing doesn’t know that she’s pregnant. I know Lu Jing very well. If she’s pregnant, she definitely won’t dare to use the child in her stomach to frame me. She will do all she can to protect the child well.”

“But it’s a fact that Consort Jing is pregnant now.” Nanny Tao looked up. “Your

!!

Majesty, you have to think for yourself!”

Shen Miao finally stopped being silent and said, “Nanny Tao is right. You have to think about this matter carefully. For the sake of His Majesty, you can’t just sit back and do nothing.”

Empress Xiande looked at her in surprise, as if she did not expect Shen Miao to speak at this juncture. However, she quickly smiled in relief and said, “It seems like Jingxing has told you a lot.”

“Get up.” Empress Xiande said to Nanny Tao, “I don’t want to repeat myself.” This was an order. Nanny Tao hesitated for a moment before standing up.

Empress Xiande looked at Shen Miao. “I’ve made a fool of myself.” She sighed. “Actually, I’ve always thought that Lu Jing was stupid. I disdained to compete with her. Now it seems that I was wrong. Lu Jing is still quite capable. She actually avoided the infertility soup and got pregnant.”

Infertility soup. Shen Miao’s heart skipped a beat. Empress Xiande told her this shocking secret just like that. In fact, the more she knew, the more dangerous it was. Those who knew about the secrets in the palace would eventually become the fertilizer for the flowers in the palace. However, for some reason, she felt that Empress Xiande told her this only because she wanted to tell her.

“You’re smart. I think you’ve seen it for yourself. The emperor doesn’t have any children in the palace, not because those consorts are infertile, but because they all drink infertility soup. Lu Jing used to drink it, but for some reason, she actually got pregnant with a child. This is probably the first child in the palace.” After saying that, she thought of something and smiled. “Maybe it’s not the first child. I once had a child too, but it was a miscarriage.” When Nanny Tao heard this, her eyes turned red.

Shen Miao’s hand that was holding the teacup trembled.

“His Majesty doesn’t think highly of you because he thinks that Jingxing is the best man. Back then, Jingxing said that he wanted to marry a girl from Ming Qi. His Majesty sent people to investigate you. After gathering your information, he told me that you’re vicious.” Empress Xiande suddenly changed the topic and looked at Shen Miao. “But now, I think you’re very kind.”

Shen Miao was puzzled. Empress Xiande continued, “You clearly want to ask me about the miscarriage, but you’re afraid of making me sad, so you held it back and didn’t ask.”

Shen Miao said softly, “I just don’t dare to ask.”

“You’re really straightforward, and I like you even more.” Empress Xiande smiled and said, “Actually, it’s been a long time since the miscarriage, and I’m already over it. Back then, when I was pregnant, Lu Jing added some cold herbs to the pastries made by the royal chef. With just a bite, my child was gone. At that time, Lu Jing had just entered the palace and was backed by the Lu family, so His Majesty could only punish her lightly..”
