After a master of metaphysics severed ties with his family, the whole family was filled with regret!

Chapter 119 Luo Chujiu calculates the pregnancy of Consort Jiang.

“This dress will suit Miss well when she goes to the palace tomorrow. I will also style her hair into a beautiful updo tomorrow,” Feiyun said with a smile.

"No need, just tie two little buns as usual."

“But Miss has already come of age. If she still wears that hairstyle, others will misunderstand,” Fei Yun said hesitantly to Luo Chujiu.

"What misunderstanding? Is it wrong for me to like this style? Just do it the way I say it. What others say or what misunderstandings they have has nothing to do with me."

Luo Chujiu said nonchalantly.

Upon hearing this, Feiyun gave up. As long as Miss is happy, she will do whatever hairstyle Miss wants.

The next morning, Luo Chujiu prepared to enter the palace with Nalan Qingyin, so she got up very early and had Feiyun help her with her washing and dressing.

The two sat in the carriage, Nalan Qingyin looking at the drowsy Luo Chujiu:

"If you are really tired, you can go to the palace later. Why get up as early as your fourth senior brother?"

"Fourth Senior Brother, I just wanted to go see Cousin Kui Kui. Kui Kui came to my coming-of-age ceremony, so I naturally had to return the favor," Luo Chujiu explained with her eyes closed and yawning.

Upon seeing this, Nalan Qingyin shook her head helplessly and said nothing more.

Upon arriving at the palace, Nalan Qingyin went to attend the morning court session, while Luo Chujiu swaggered towards Luoheng Palace.

"Greetings, Miss Luo."

"Has Cousin Kui Kui gotten up yet?"

Luo Chujiu saw Caiwei, the maidservant beside Consort Jiang, and asked her a question.

"No, but judging from the time, the Imperial Concubine should be getting up soon. Miss Luo, why don't you wait here? I'll go and get you some pastries and tea."

"Alright, then I'll trouble you, Sister Caiwei."

Luo Chujiu smiled slightly at Caiwei, who was flattered.
"This servant cannot accept Miss Luo calling me 'sister.' This servant will make the arrangements here."

After saying that, Caiwei left quickly, and soon returned with two maids carrying tea and snacks.

Luo Chujiu hadn't eaten breakfast, so she had some tea and snacks instead.

Before long, Consort Jiang got up, finished washing up, and then had someone invite Luo Chujiu in.

"Cousin Kui Kui—"

"Have you been waiting long, Xiao Jiu? My body is getting heavier and heavier, and I can't seem to wake up properly," Consort Jiang said to Luo Chujiu with a hint of helplessness.

"It's alright. Pregnant women tend to sleep more. Cousin Kui Kui, don't worry about it."

Luo Chujiu smiled and sat down next to Consort Jiang. Consort Jiang looked at Luo Chujiu, her expression becoming even more gentle.

"Xiao Jiu, is there anything you need to do at the palace today?"

"What could I possibly have to do? I'm the one with the most free time. I just wanted to thank my cousin Kui Kui for attending my coming-of-age ceremony a couple of days ago despite being pregnant."

Hearing Luo Chujiu's words, Consort Jiang smiled helplessly:
"Xiao Jiu, you're being too polite. It was just a casual matter. You saved me and my unborn child once, so it's only right and proper for me to attend your coming-of-age ceremony."

"I still have to thank Cousin Kui Kui. How about I take your pulse and see if the child in your womb is a prince or a princess?"

Consort Jiang was taken aback and looked at Luo Chujiu:
"They can already tell the sex of the fetus?"

"As long as the fetus in the womb is healthy, it should be possible to tell."

When Consort Jiang heard Luo Chujiu say this, she hesitated for a moment, then extended her wrist so that Luo Chujiu could take her pulse.

Luo Chujiu took Jiang Guifei's pulse for a moment, then asked her to withdraw her wrist to prevent her from catching a cold. "How is she?"

"Cousin Kui Kui, do you want a prince or a princess?"

"Actually, it's all good, but it would be even better if it were a prince. After all, His Majesty doesn't have a prince yet, and the rumors outside inevitably make His Majesty worry."

Consort Jiang sighed. Actually, she wished it were a daughter, so she could pamper her and not have to bear so much responsibility. She wouldn't be involved in the struggle for the crown prince's position in the future, and her daughter would grow up more safely.

Upon hearing this, Luo Chujiu smiled.
"I'm sure my cousin Kui Kui will be happy."

Upon hearing this, Consort Jiang understood the meaning behind her words and was very excited. She immediately wanted to tell His Majesty the good news.

Seeing her unwavering belief, Luo Chujiu smiled again:

"Does Cousin Kui Kui really believe what Xiao Jiu says?"

"Of course, I believe everything Xiao Jiu says."

Luo Chujiu felt very satisfied that Consort Jiang trusted her so much.

Xiao Jinglin had nothing to do at court today, so he went to Luoheng Palace immediately after the court session.

"Oh? Xiao Jiu is here too."

Xiao Jinglin now calls Luo Chujiu "Xiao Jiu" along with Consort Jiang, which makes them seem closer.

"I have met His Majesty."

When Luo Chujiu saw Xiao Jinglin, she merely nodded slightly, without getting up or bowing.

However, Xiao Jinglin didn't take these things to heart. The Imperial Advisor had told him some things before, which made Xiao Jinglin much more tolerant of Luo Chujiu.

"Your Majesty, just now Xiao Jiu took my pulse and said that I am carrying a prince."

When Consort Jiang saw Xiao Jinglin, she told him the good news.

Xiao Jinglin was also pleasantly surprised upon hearing this:

"That's wonderful! Once the child is born, I will make him the crown prince!"

Upon hearing this, Luo Chujiu immediately advised:
"Your Majesty would be better off not establishing a crown prince so soon. The child in my cousin Kui Kui's womb is probably not fit for the throne."

Upon hearing Luo Chujiu's words, both Xiao Jinglin and Consort Jiang were stunned, not understanding what she meant.
If it were anyone else, they would definitely be angry to hear Luo Chujiu's words, but Consort Jiang understood Luo Chujiu and knew that she wouldn't say such things for no reason, so she patiently waited for her explanation.

"I won't hide it from Your Majesty and Cousin Kui Kui. I once calculated the fate of Cousin Kui Kui's unborn child. It is destined to be a life of great wealth and honor, but it is not destined for the throne. Cousin Kui Kui is destined to have three sons and one daughter, and the position of Crown Prince should be among the other few people."

After hearing her explanation, Consort Jiang and Xiao Jinglin were relieved.

So that's what it means. It doesn't matter. As long as the Crown Prince is born to Consort Jiang, Xiao Jinglin doesn't care much about anything else.

"In that case, let's wait until the prince is older before discussing the position of crown prince."

Xiao Jinglin thought to himself that he had been too impulsive. How could he have made him the crown prince right after he was born? What if he really wasn't cut out to be the crown prince? They would have to depose him and make someone else, which would be really bad.

Consort Jiang was also relieved. She didn't necessarily want her unborn child to become the crown prince. As long as the child was healthy and lived a peaceful life, that would be wonderful.

only--

She never imagined she'd be destined to have so many children. It really is.
Consort Jiang couldn't help but blush. His Majesty was truly amazing, managing to get her pregnant with so many children.

The two of them had no doubt about Luo Chujiu's words at all; they believed whatever Luo Chujiu said.
