Get pregnant soon, and beauties will have many happy pregnancies

Ji Yunhuan also got into her carriage. The interior of the carriage was very comfortable and the driving was smooth. She took a rest in the carriage and was woken up by Granny Yan when she was approaching the palace gate.

There were many carriages parked at the entrance of the palace. It was so busy that those attending the Hundred Flowers Banquet could only get out of the carriages and queue up, waiting for the female officials in the palace to verify their identities one by one.

Ji Yonglian shook her fan desperately. There was no shade tree at the entrance of the palace, and the sun made her dizzy and uncomfortable.

From time to time, a noble lady from a high family would arrive late. Her status was high, so she would naturally get in front. A concubine from a small family like her could only step back again and again.

"It's all Ji Yunhuan's fault for wasting time, otherwise I wouldn't be so far in the queue."

Ji Yonglian did not dare to vent her anger on the ladies, so she could only scold Ji Yunhuan secretly, "Where did Ji Yunhuan die? She must be at the back of the queue. She deserves to be late!"

Ji Yunhuan watched as the carriage made a turn and arrived at another palace gate.

This place was obviously not open to the public, and the guards at the door were even tighter. Nanny Yan took out her palace badge, and soon the guards were let through, and even the carriage drove in.

Ji Yunhuan's eyes widened in surprise, "Mother Yan, isn't this good? How about I come down and walk?"

Grandma Yan smiled, "There's nothing wrong with it. Your Majesty is pregnant and will have to enter the palace sooner or later. I just came in early to have a look. There is no reason to let Your Majesty go in."

The carriage soon drove into Baiyuan Garden.

At this time, the flowers are in full bloom, and the garden is so colorful and beautiful.

There is a water pavilion in the garden, which separates the two sides. The man on the left and the woman on the right look at each other across the water, which adds a bit of poetry and painting.

The main banquet was held in the waterside pavilion, and only the most distinguished clan members could have a place there.

A family like the Ji family could only sit scattered in the garden. Ji Gongming had not been promoted for many years and was at the bottom of the list of household ministers. Ji Yunhuan could only sit in the corner.

Aunt Yan originally wanted to take Ji Yunhuan to pay her respects to the Queen Mother, but Ji Yunhuan refused.

"I don't understand the rules and I'm afraid of offending the noble lady. Why don't I wait until the Hundred Flowers Banquet is over before going to see the Queen Mother."

Grandma Yan nodded, "I'm impatient, but I think it's more thoughtful. There are many people in the waterside pavilion. The more low-key the empress is, the better. It's quiet here."

"This is Xia Liu, a female official in the palace. If your Majesty has anything to do, please ask her to do it."

A woman in her thirties came forward to greet Ji Yunhuan and said, "Happy queen."

Ji Yunhuan helped the person up and said, "I'm sorry to bother you, sister."

Xia Liu followed Ji Yunhuan not far or near, not showing off her appearance, but allowing Ji Yunhuan to find her at any time.

The place was remote, but the scenery was beautiful. Ji Yunhuan got tired after wandering around for a while. He didn't know where Xia Liu conjured up soft cushions and hot tea, and also served a plate of pastries, and then left silently.

On the waterside pavilion, the high-pitched voice of the female official rang out, "The Queen Mother is here~Kneel down~"

Everyone knelt down. Just as Ji Yunhuan was about to kneel down, someone beside her helped her.

Xia Liu's soft voice reached Ji Yunhuan's ears, "This servant is a person close to the Queen Mother. The Queen Mother has given instructions. Since the Queen Mother is pregnant, these false courtesy will be dispensed with."

Ji Yunhuan was sitting in the corner, and everyone was pushing forward with all their strength, but she didn't even ask for a proper seat, but chose a stone bench to sit down at random.

Everyone was kneeling forward, and no one noticed her.

Ji Yun was so happy that he simply stopped kneeling and said, "The Queen Mother is so caring, I am truly ashamed of myself."

The Queen Mother's gaze swept across the whole place, and she immediately spotted Ji Yunhuan in the corner. This child was calm enough to sit so far away, so he didn't have to wrong himself.

Ji Yunhuan knelt down and saluted the Queen Mother, and was soon helped to sit down by Xia Liu.

The Queen Mother felt even more satisfied, and the smile on her face became more sincere.

"When this man gets older, he likes to see young and bright girls. They are all well-educated and good boys. The Ai family likes them just looking at them."

"Today is the Hundred Flowers Banquet. Let's all be more casual and don't have to be formal. Maybe we can make a few good marriages."

The Queen Mother has spoken, and everyone naturally wants to support her.

Many young gentlemen came forward to perform for the fun, reciting poems and composing poems, or performing fist and sword dances, which attracted bursts of cheers.

The noble ladies beside the waterside pavilion could not sit still anymore, and they all came to the stage to perform, whether they were playing the piano and singing, or doing calligraphy, painting and embroidery, each with their own specialties.

The Queen Mother smiled so hard that she couldn't close her mouth, and the rewards came out like a stream of water. Among them, King An and the Wu family's legitimate daughter received the most generous rewards. The Queen Mother also added an extra pair of jade Ruyi.

King An was eighteen years old and the youngest brother of the emperor. He fell in love with the legitimate daughter of the Wu family.

"The Ai family likes the two of you playing the piano and flute together very much. They are both good children. How about the Ai family grant you a marriage today?"

The two of them knelt down to thank each other, their cheeks turning red as their eyes met.

Ji Yonglian looked at her with hot eyes. If she could win the favor of the Queen Mother, let alone marry into the Hou Mansion, she might still have hope of becoming a princess!

Su Honglang was performing a sword dance on the stage. He was only proficient in writing and had no patience to study hard in the cold window. Naturally, he couldn't use poems and songs, and his martial arts was commonplace, but it was enough to fool the ignorant noble lady.

He had a pair of peach blossom eyes, which gave people the illusion of being affectionate. When his gaze glanced over, many ladies on the right blushed.

The Queen Mother frowned and looked at him for a while, feeling that this man was frivolous and dissolute, but she couldn't remember which family he belonged to.

The Marquis of Dingyuan had no title, but he only received a casual position in Jingzhao Mansion, earning a free salary. The prince Dingyuan Marquis has no errands and has never shown his face in front of the Queen Mother.

Aunt Yan mentioned it tactfully, and the Queen Mother suddenly realized.

"It turns out he is from Dingyuanhou's family. Come and reward me."

The Queen Mother didn't say anything about the reward, so the eunuch handed over a bright red purse with some gold and silver in it.

Su Honglang knelt down to thank him, but felt very uncomfortable in his heart.

Others would be rewarded with large sums of money for just reciting a poem, but how could it be that he was treated like a rich man of gold and silver?

The Queen Mother made it clear that she didn't like Su Honglang. The noble ladies looked at Su Honglang with a bit more disgust, and the shyness of her daughter's family disappeared.

As soon as Su Honglang came off the stage, Ji Yonglian couldn't wait to rush forward.

She danced a dance, and the butterfly hairpin on her head trembled, as if it was about to fly away.

Ji Yonglian knows how to show off her own strengths. As she spins, her clothes flutter, and her light body seems to take off with the butterfly, which is quite eye-catching.

The young men on the right side of the table all stretched out their heads to look, with unexplained smiles on their lips, and made quite a comment.

The Queen Mother only felt that this dance was enchanting and had an aura of profligacy, which made her unhappy. However, she did not show it, and just asked:

"Whose girl is this? Why haven't I seen her before?"

Ji Yonglian was overjoyed. She stood there blankly on the high platform and said in a brisk tone: "I am the daughter of Ji Gongming, the Minister of Household Affairs, and I am the Queen Mother who sent me a hundred-flower invitation to invite you to the palace."

Aunt Yan leaned over and explained in the Queen Mother's ear, and the Queen Mother's face turned cold.

If she had known that there was such a concubine in the Ji family, she should have invited Huan'er to the palace by name instead of vaguely referring to the daughter of the Ji family.

Aunt Yan knew the Empress Dowager's thoughts. She took a step forward, displayed the majesty of a palace official, and scolded sternly:

"Bold! Why don't you kneel down when asked by the Queen Mother?"
