"It's true!"
The prince asked a high monk to perform a ritual, and the whole capital knew about it, so there was no need for the queen to hide it.
"Could it be that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince encountered some unlucky event?"
Rongpin exclaimed, a look of horror on her face.
She had heard some strange noises every day when she went to sleep these past few days, but she didn't dare to say anything. If it got out, wouldn't the emperor be unwilling to summon her to his bedchamber?
"Indeed, someone attacked the prince and used evil spirits to murder him. Fortunately, the prince had a noble person to remind him."
Noble person?
All the concubines looked at the queen curiously, and even the imperial concubine couldn't help it.
"I wonder which distinguished person it is?"
The person who could know the evil spirit and let the prince take precautions in advance must be a master.
"Empress, Madam Wang has brought Fubao into the palace."
Nanny Ding beside the queen said.
"Call them in immediately."
The concubines looked at each other in bewilderment. Who was Madam Wang? How come they had never heard of her?
Originally, Wang Yanran and Fubao were supposed to come later, but early in the morning, the Queen asked them to come to the palace to help.
Fubao also wanted to find out who attacked the prince as soon as possible, so he came over when the concubines were paying their respects.
Now that Wang Yanran and Gu Jinyu had broken up, she had regained her spirits. Even in simple clothes, it was difficult to conceal her stunning beauty. Even the imperial concubine, who always dominated the harem with her beauty, was outshined by her simple makeup.
If she hadn't been holding a child in her arms, the concubines would have been alarmed.
But even so, there was still a murderous look in the imperial concubine's eyes.
She did not allow any woman prettier than herself to appear in the palace.
"Hello, Queen, hello, Royal Concubine, hello, all the ladies, hello!"
"Get up!"
"Please take a seat!"
When the Queen heard that Wang Yanran wanted to return her dowry and separated from Gu Jinyu, she felt that this woman was bold and courageous enough, and she liked such women.
"Thank you, Queen!"
Wang Yanran has been learning business from her father since she was a child and has a strong ability to judge people.
She could feel the kindness and genuine love that the Queen showed to her.
Unlike the last time she went to the palace to see the emperor, she was much more relaxed this time.
"Madam Wang, is this the mother of the lucky star who recently stayed at the Imperial Master's residence?"
The imperial concubine had inquired about the lucky star before. When she heard that the lucky star was just a baby, she wondered why the emperor was so sure that a baby was the lucky star. Now that she saw Wang Yanran, she seemed to understand something.
"Yes, Madam Wang is the mother of our Nanzhao Fuxing!"
As the queen spoke, she looked at the little baby nestled in Wang Yanran's arms, who was looking around curiously.
The little baby is pink and tender, with a chubby face and a pair of big eyes that blink as if they can speak.
"Fubao is so cute, can I hold him?"
The Queen never liked children getting close to her. Except for the Crown Prince, her own son, she had never been close to other princes.
Wang Yanran lowered her head and saw the joy in Fubao's eyes.
Oh my, the most noble woman in Nanzhao is going to hug me, I’m so happy!
"It is Fubao's honor to be favored by the Queen."
Wang Yanran handed the child to Nanny Ding, who then handed the child to the Queen.
The big and the small looked at each other at such a close distance, and Fubao's eyes opened even wider.
"Wow, the Queen is so beautiful!"
The Queen is dignified, yet heroic. She is not as weak as other women. She is as beautiful as winter plum blossoms, and no one can compare to her.
The queen was stunned. Why did she seem to hear Fubao talking?
She looked at Aunt Ding, who was bewildered.
She looked at the concubines again, and there was no strange expression on their faces.
"The Queen smells so good, Fubao loves it."
The little guy in my arms sniffed, his little face full of satisfaction.
The queen came back to her senses, and the shock in her eyes quickly turned into joy.
Haha, she and Fubao are destined to be together. She can even hear Fubao’s inner voice, which is not something ordinary people can hear.
"Madame Ding, quickly bring the gift I prepared for Fubao."
Nanny Ding had never seen her master like someone so much, so she quickly took out the longevity lock and the golden pig.
"Wow, so much gold, I love it so much!"
Fubao was so happy that his little hands and feet started dancing.
The queen was even happier, fortunately she had asked the prince about Fubao's preferences.
But this scene looked a little strange to the other concubines.
The concubines in the harem usually give gifts of high quality. Giving gold directly is too tacky. But the queen actually gave the baby gold. It seems that she does not really like the child, but only likes him on the surface and uses gifts to ridicule him.
"I didn't expect that the so-called lucky star actually likes gold!" Rongpin was disdainful.
Fubao paused as he touched the golden pig's little hand, confusion flashing in his eyes.
Isn't it bad to like gold? Gold is shiny and bright, not only beautiful, but you can also buy many things with it. So why is it bad to like gold?
The God of Wealth told her that there is no one who doesn’t like gold. Could it be that the God of Wealth was wrong?
The queen was shocked when she heard the inner voice. Fubao actually had such a relationship with the God of Wealth!
"What's wrong with liking gold? Who doesn't like gold? If you don't like it, you don't have to receive your monthly salary from now on." The queen snorted coldly.
A mere concubine dared to jump around in front of her and even showed disdain to Fubao.
"Your Majesty, that's not what I meant."
Rongpin's family was very poor. After sending her to the palace, they expected her to support her family. It was impossible for them to give her money. If her monthly salary was cut off, she would be left with nothing.
