Episode 12
The emperor took the queen, Wan Guiren, Shen Guiren and others to the Old Summer Palace to escape the summer heat.The emperor had no choice but to take Concubine Hua with him to the palace because of Nian Gengyao's power and old love. Considering that Concubine Duan was frail and sick, he also took her to the palace to recuperate.Prince Yunli of Guo County responded to the imperial edict and went to the palace to accompany the emperor to shoot arrows for fun. His superb archery skills with one arrow and two pigeons aroused the taboo in the emperor's heart for many years.
Yunli sensed the emperor's dissatisfaction and doubts, and immediately stated that he would survive in the world as if he were hiding one's strength and biding time, and would definitely stay away from the government.When Zhen Huan went to accompany the emperor, Cao Guiren took the opportunity to sow discord, suggesting that the emperor used the name of Prince Guo when he met Zhen Huan that day, which might cause Zhen Huan to fall in love with Yunli instead of the emperor himself.
The emperor, who was suspicious by nature, immediately had a grudge against Zhen Huan and asked when Zhen Huan had feelings for him. Zhen Huan cleverly dealt with it on the grounds that the Yu family bullied the emperor to save the siege.Meizhuang was favored but not pregnant, and felt helpless, so he summoned Liu Wei, the imperial doctor from his hometown, to ask for the secret recipe for giving birth to a boy.Zhen Huan warned Meizhuang to be cautious, and Meizhuang told Zhen Huan to rest assured that Liu Gan was from his own hometown, so there was nothing wrong with it.
As Princess Wen Yi turns one year old, the queen is ready to take care of it.Cao Guiren held a banquet to invite Zhen Huan, Meizhuang and others. During the dinner, Meizhuang felt nauseated and vomited. Everyone thought she was pregnant, and the emperor was overjoyed.Imperial physician Liu Gan confirmed on the spot that Mei Zhuang was more than a month pregnant, and the queen took care of Mei Zhuang so that she could raise the baby with peace of mind.
