Peaceful days always pass quickly. In a blink of an eye, the young lady has been brought to the palace for more than half a month.

Under the careful care of the imperial physician, the remaining poison in her body has been basically cleared out. Her health has improved a lot, and her spirit has also recovered a lot. She is no longer as dull and slow as before.

Although her eyesight was still not very clear, with the close care of the palace maids and the frequent company of Li Shushu, she was in a good mood, so these were just minor problems.

Li Shushu herself became a high-ranking concubine. Now, except for Concubine Yan, who was on an equal footing with her but had no emperor's favor and was under house arrest, no one in the harem dared to bully her. Even Li Xiaodie had to bow respectfully when she saw her.

The emperor doted on her deeply.

I'm pregnant and my mother is by my side.

Li Shushu was enjoying a peace of mind that she had never experienced in her two lifetimes, and even her morning sickness came a little later.

On the eve of August 15th, according to palace custom, the empress dowager needed to take all the concubines to Nengren Temple outside the palace to burn incense and worship Buddha.

Pray for the Da Sheng Dynasty, pray for the emperor, and pray for the people of the world.

The baby in Li Shushu's belly was only two months old. According to common saying, the fetus was not yet firmly seated.

Gu Jingyan was a little worried about her, saying that the journey was too tiring and that there might be accidents on the way, so he asked her not to go.

The Queen Mother disagreed.

She said: Last year, when I prayed for blessings, I wished to ask Buddha to give her a golden grandson. Now that my wish has come true, I must take Shushu with me to fulfill my wish.

What you promised the Buddha must be done, otherwise, you will be punished by the Buddha."

Gu Jingyan looked at Li Shushu, his face full of worry.

Li Shushu reassured him, "Don't worry, Your Majesty. I will be extra careful."

If it really doesn't work, she still has the peace talisman. It would be a waste to leave it unused.

The Queen Mother smiled knowingly when she saw how sweet they were.

After all, he was her own son. If her son was happy, her mother would naturally be happy too. She said jokingly, "Don't worry, Your Majesty. I will protect your eyes closely."

Upon hearing this, Gu Jingyan glanced at the Queen Mother and actually blushed slightly at his mother's amusement.

Praying to Buddha and praying for blessings is originally a simple matter, but because the pregnant Concubine Shu also wanted to go, the ceremony became extremely grand.

First of all, the emperor arranged a lot of guards for her, dozens of them in the open and a dozen hiding in the dark. They were all kung fu masters, and the level of defense was no less than that of the emperor's travel.

Secondly, he asked the temple to block the pilgrims from going up the mountain that day and only receive the royal palace officials. He also arranged for people to check all the rooms and corners of the temple in advance to prevent villains from hiding and harming in advance.

Once again, he was not reassured enough, so he was ready to rush over in person after leaving the court to accompany her closely!

However, even so, there are still people who are trying their best to do bad things.

…

Li Xiaodie has been silent since she was thrown out during the last autumn gathering.

It’s not that she doesn’t want to take action, but she is trying hard to hold back her big moves and wait patiently for the opportunity.

The so-called disaster lasts for thousands of years.

The eldest lady Liu endured fifty blows with the stick. Her whole body was covered in blood and flesh, with not a single piece of healthy flesh left. She was breathing out more than breathing in, but even so, she managed to get through it!

Now, after more than half a month of recuperation at my mother's house, I have actually gotten much better. However, I can only lie down every day and cannot move. If I move, my whole body will ache and I can only gasp for breath.

When my body hurts, I feel hatred in my heart. When this hatred accumulates, I feel anxious to vent it!

Regardless of her physical disability, the eldest lady couldn't wait to take revenge.

She finally managed to contact Li Xiaodie through the secret line she had laid in the palace in advance.

Only then did Li Xiaodie realize that her mother, who had always loved her, had been paralyzed in bed because of Li Shushu.

And Your Majesty even issued an order forcing my father to divorce his wife!

That’s too much!

All of this must have been done by that bitch Li Shushu!

She was filled with sorrow, anger, and evil.

The eldest lady grinned and said: She will not rest in peace until she has avenged this!

Adding fuel to the fire: Li Shushu and the baby in her belly cannot be kept! If they stay, Li Xiaodie will have trouble moving around in the palace!

Li Xiaodie's eyes darkened: That makes sense, that's exactly what I want!

So the mother and daughter were surprisingly united, and Li Xiaodie was also smart and independent for once, ready to fight to the death.

The eldest lady was in charge of making plans and purchasing medicines and other materials. After all, she was familiar with this.

Li Xiaodie is responsible for the implementation.

The process of worshiping Buddha was the same as usual. According to the custom of previous years, the Queen Mother and the concubines arrived in the morning, burned incense and worshipped Buddha, had a vegetarian meal and a short nap in the temple at noon, listened to the abbot chanting scriptures in the afternoon, and then returned.

Unexpectedly, after lunch, Li Shushu, who was experiencing frequent and urgent urination during pregnancy, ran into Xiao Ye, whom she hadn't seen for a long time, on her way to relieve herself...

Xiao Ye, as usual, grabbed a handful of melon seeds and walked up to Li Shushu, but casually handed a note to her.

Li Shushu unfolded it and saw the words: Gathering at the small house in the back mountain

The signature is just one word "Heng"!

Li Shushu stared at the note in his hand and thought for a long time.

Finally, he sighed and decided to go with Xiaoye.

She didn't bring anyone with her on this trip. She just told Zhen'er and Zhu'er that she felt uncomfortable in her stomach after dinner, and she met an old colleague. She wanted to go for a walk in the back mountain together, reminisce about the good and bad times, and chat a few words.

Everyone who accompanied her dared not disobey her, even the secret guards were sent away by her!

Because she didn't want His Majesty to know what she did on this trip!

Although everyone felt that it was inappropriate, they had no choice but to accept that the Imperial Concubine was determined. The Emperor had also previously instructed that the Imperial Concubine's orders were equivalent to his.
