"But now I'm glad you didn't die." Lu Xi suddenly changed her tone.
"Do you know? Yesterday, at the same time the imperial decree of the Deposed Empress was issued, my Ganquan Palace also received a decree."
Lu Xi's expression was secretive yet smug: "The first Imperial Noble Consort of the Da Lie Dynasty. Brother Yun Qi said that once my child is born, he will make me the Empress. He won't let my child become a lowly bastard." Lu Xi lovingly caressed her small belly.
For ten years, she had never been pregnant, for this reason.
Now, she finally had a child of hers and Brother Yun Qi's in her belly.
Upon hearing the word "child," Su Chaohua's expression finally showed a trace of change.
A child... Everyone knew the Central Palace had no offspring for ten years, but no one knew she had actually been pregnant.
It's just that the child was too unfortunate to come safely into this world.
