Five years after her death, she awoke on the dragon bed.

Chapter 100 Fetal Movement
After the fireworks faded, the Mid-Autumn Festival night came to an end.

Lou Suyi had just stepped down from Wangyue Tower when Consort De appeared beside her without her noticing: "I'm going the same way as the nun, let's walk together."

Lou Suyi wondered to herself, how did she end up going the same way as Consort De?
She had to walk back to Xianfu Palace, while Consort De was allowed to ride in a palanquin.

She figured it couldn't be anything good.

When Lou Suyi saw Consort De walking with her, she felt that Consort De might have something to say to her.

Sure enough, before they had taken more than a few steps, Consort De asked, "Who does the nun actually like?"

Lou Suyi was surprised that Consort De would ask her such a question. She replied calmly, "This humble nun does not know what Consort De is talking about."

Consort De glanced back at Yan Hui and Jin Shu. The two palace maids were staring at her and Lou Suyi with predatory eyes, as if she were about to devour Lou Suyi.

"Master is a wise woman, how could she not know what I'm talking about? Marquis Dingyuan is a dragon among men, and he once had a special affection for you. As for Lord Xie, he is a powerful minister in the cabinet and a man of great talent. I've heard that you were once very infatuated with him. Now that you've entered the palace, you're also being treated well by His Majesty. Any one of these three is a remarkable person. Surely you're not just blinded by your choices?"

As Consort De finished speaking, a mocking smile appeared on her lips.

Lou Suyi suddenly realized that Consort De's words made a lot of sense.

She had pursued Xie Zhijie, and had been cherished by Qi Yan. Now, she had entered the palace and become Murong's woman.

But if you really want to say which of the three she has the deepest feelings for, it's hard to say.

She was kind to Xie Zhijie because marrying him would allow her to escape the Lou family. At that time, she was still young and had no idea what love was.

As for Qi Yan, she did have feelings for him, but she didn't know if those feelings were because of Qi Yan as a person or because he was good to her.

Now that she's become Murong's woman, she's not happy about it at all, so how could she possibly genuinely like Murong?

"Is my question so difficult to answer?" Consort De looked at Lou Suyi with displeasure.

This woman is just a little prettier, isn't she? But when it comes to beauty, Xie Zhijie and Murong are both used to seeing beautiful women, so what's so special about Lou Suyi?
Why were these three men staring at Lou Suyi at Wangyue Tower just now?

The men she used to like and the men she likes now are all staring at this dead nun. How could she not be jealous?

Lou Suying gently shook her head: "This humble nun just feels that Consort De's question is somewhat abrupt. As a nun, why would Consort De ask such a strange question?"

Consort De stopped in her tracks and said coldly, "Just answer my questions, why all this nonsense?"

Lou Suyi glanced at the two palace maids behind her, thinking to herself that they were Murong's people and would report everything to Murong. It would be better to find a safe answer: "This humble nun thinks His Majesty is very outstanding. From this humble nun's point of view, His Majesty is a person worthy of respect."

Anyway, it's always good to flatter Murong.

"You mean you like His Majesty?" Consort De insisted on getting a definite answer from Lou Suyi.

Lou Suyi was too lazy to argue with Consort De: "If Consort De thinks so, then so be it. This humble nun is used to going to bed early. I'm really sleepy, so I'll go back to Xianfu Palace to rest first. I'll take my leave now."

Before Consort De could speak again, she quickly headed towards Xianfu Palace.

Consort De sneered, "You cunning nun!"

Blueberry watched Lou Suyi's retreating figure and whispered, "Master Kongchen will probably be Her Majesty's strongest opponent."

Consort De knew Blueberry was intelligent, so she frowned and asked, "What makes you say that?"

"This servant observed all day and noticed that His Majesty treats Abbess Kongchen differently. Although it's not obvious, he always seems to be quite close to her without even realizing it. Furthermore, the Empress Dowager also favors Abbess Kongchen. If the abbess has even a little ambition and were to leave the monastery and remain in the palace, His Majesty would eventually bring her into the harem. Besides, Abbess Kongchen saved His Majesty's life; with that debt of gratitude still attached, it's only a matter of time before she rises to power," Blueberry stated her insight. Consort De frowned.

She knew Blueberry was right, but what could she do?

"Then what do you think we should do?" she asked in a deep voice.

Blueberries fell silent.

Lou Suyi is now a nun, temporarily residing in the palace. She is someone valued by the Empress Dowager and the new Emperor. If the master were to act rashly, he might only suffer more losses than gains.

Most importantly, they had no one to turn to for guidance.

"This servant thinks we can instigate Consort Lou to deal with Abbess Kongchen!" Blueberry replied after pondering for a moment.

Today, Lou Suying clearly doesn't get along with Lady Suning and the Lou Suya sisters. She has also investigated the relationship between Lou Suying and the people in the Suning family. Lou Suying has always been a marginal person in the Suning family.

If Lou Cairen were to deal with Lou Suyi, the master could remain uninvolved.

"That's easy to say. Why would Consort Lou target Lou Suyi for no reason? After all, they are sisters. Even if they are not from the same mother, Consort Lou would not have taken action against Lou Suyi unless Lou Suyi affected her own interests." After a pause, Consort De said calmly, "Let this matter end here."

Her current focus should be on dealing with Leung Wan Ying, not putting the cart before the horse by targeting a nun.

Blueberry felt from the bottom of her heart that Consort Hui was not as threatening as Lou Suyi, but her mistress's concerns were reasonable, and she hoped that she was overthinking it.

Inside Xianfu Palace, Lou Suyi habitually touched her belly after getting into bed.

Just then, she suddenly felt her palm shift slightly.

At first, she thought she was hallucinating, until the baby in her womb moved again where her palm was. She sat up in surprise and joy, almost bursting into tears of happiness.

Jinshu saw Lou Suying suddenly sit up and asked, puzzled, "What's wrong, Miss?"

Lou Suyi blurted out, "It moves..."

No, Jinshu didn't know she was pregnant; she almost let it slip just now.

Jinshu was taken aback: "What?"

Her gaze drifted to Lou Suyi's belly. Could it be that the little prince was starting to move?
Lou Suyi's smile vanished instantly, replaced by a stern expression: "It's nothing, I'm going to sleep, you should get some rest too."

Jinshu looked at Lou Suyi's lips, which clearly wanted to laugh but were forcibly suppressed, and felt that she had guessed correctly.

After she helped Lou Suyi lie down, she secretly peeked at the girl and saw her still smiling as she touched her belly.

According to Imperial Physician Liu, pregnant women can feel fetal movement when they are more than four months pregnant.

She asked Jili to go to the Qianqing Palace so that His Majesty, her father, could receive the good news as soon as possible.

Murong was about to go to sleep when Jili suddenly came to tell him about Lou Suyi's fetal movement, which immediately aroused him.

"Is Su Yi alright?" After calming down, he asked about the child's mother.

"The young lady is all smiles, but she should be asleep now. Your Majesty, rest assured, with us servants taking good care of her, she will surely give birth to a healthy and intelligent imperial heir." Jili was also overjoyed.
