Upon hearing this news, Shang Ruyi was startled.
But she reacted quickly, immediately got up, and had Tushere assist her with a simple wash. After getting dressed neatly, she walked to the outer hall, where Chang Wan had already led some people inside, including Panqing, the Chief Palace Maid from Chu Ruoyan's side.
Shang Ruyi sat upright in front, watching as Panqing slowly walked in with a box in her hands, and then looked behind her.
There was no one else, only her.
Shang Ruyi's brows furrowed slightly, but she said nothing more, only watching as Panqing came forward and respectfully bowed to her: "This servant pays respects to the Princess."
Shang Ruyi said, "No need for formalities."
Only then did Panqing rise slowly, saying, "Upon hearing that the Princess is with child, my Lady is extremely joyful. She specifically had this servant bring you some delicious snacks, hoping that you will take good care of your health and soon give birth to a fine child."
