As if noticing Gu Qingsheng's situation, Xu Qingyi pondered, his Adam's apple moved, and his eyes saw the safety lock in Concubine Ning's hand, and he whispered
"The incense is burned at the National Temple every three hours. I am on duty today, so I will be here later."
"This safety lock of the imperial concubine..."
His eyes stayed on the lock, and Concubine Ning felt a little nervous.
"What's wrong, Imperial Master? Is there something wrong?"
Looking away, Xu Qingyi lowered his head
"Nothing, very good, Your Majesty will surely get what you want."
As soon as these words were spoken, Concubine Ning's eyes lit up.
You know, she asked the Imperial Master countless times whether she was pregnant with a boy or a girl, but all she got was a single answer.
"The secret of heaven cannot be revealed."
Now that Ping An has turned into a dragon, and Xu Qingyi said so, it seems that it must be a boy.
After happily accepting the safety lock, Concubine Ning said to Gu Qingsheng sincerely:
"This gift is so precious. I'm sure the child will be delighted. I don't have anything to offer in return. How about the Emperor thanking her on my behalf?"
She squeezed closer to the emperor, and Concubine Ning smiled brightly.
"Is this all right, Your Majesty?"
The queen had been feeling uncomfortable after listening to this for a long time. She let out a long breath and suppressed the discomfort in her heart.
"What kind of talk is that? It's a bit inappropriate to ask the emperor to repay you for the gift Changle gave you."
"What the Queen said is not true."
Concubine Ning was not afraid of the Queen at all and stood up straight.
"Look, Changle gave the gift to the baby in her belly. That baby is the emperor's child. Isn't it normal for the emperor to thank the princess on behalf of the child?"
Her sharp tongue left the Queen speechless for a moment. The Queen Mother said
"That's right. If he is really the dragon son, then Changle has made great contributions. The emperor deserves a reward."
Everyone was talking to each other, but the emperor was silent for a long time. Finally, he said in an unpredictable manner:
"Wait a minute."
Gu Qingsheng thought of what she said to the Queen Mother yesterday. She was speechless, but when she looked up, she met a pair of clear eyes. She looked at Xu Qingyi and stared at him for a long time. Neither of them revealed their emotions, but they both thought a lot about each other.
Gu Qingsheng turned his gaze away first and called Bai Lu. Bai Lu leaned over, listened to Gu Qingsheng muttering a few words, nodded and left.
"Why are you still upset? If you're confused, why don't you just ask him what his relationship is with Luo Zhaozhao?"
"No question, no quarrel."
After answering coldly, Gu Qingsheng no longer paid any attention to Miao Lanlan.
After all the ministers arrived, the martial arts test officially began.
After a while, Bai Lu came back.
At the same time, in the side hall.
“Zhao Zhao!!”
Chu Zhiyao rushed in at the door regardless of the doctors' obstruction.
Just as he was getting ready, someone came in and handed him a note which described in detail what had happened at the palace gate today and also told him the location of the side hall.
Although he had doubts in his heart, Chu Zhiyao still came to this place just in case, but the reality made him feel disappointed.
"Deputy General, you can't go in. Madam is in danger now."
A doctor wiped his sweat and said to Chu Zhiyao, he was too old to stop Chu Zhiyao, he could only keep persuading him.
"Madam is already weak, and now in this situation, it's even more precarious. If you rush in rashly like this and make her even more upset, you'll end up making matters worse, Lieutenant General!"
After hearing what the imperial physician said, Chu Zhiyao controlled his temper and stood aside, waiting for news from inside.
But his face was gloomy, his hands were clenched tightly at his sides, and he was breathing heavily.
His aura was too frightening, and after trying to persuade the doctor for a long time, he went back in.
Chun He came out crying. When Chu Zhiyao saw her, he immediately strode in front of her and shook her tightly.
"What the hell is going on!"
The sudden confinement made Chun He cry out in pain, and then she shuddered when she saw Chu Zhiyao's bloodthirsty eyes, and she even forgot to cry.
"Deputy General... Madam... Madam..."
"Tell me quickly! What's going on?"
Chu Zhiyao roared, Chunhe was frightened and trembled again, then burst into tears
"Madam! Madam's child is in danger! Deputy General! You must make the decision for Madam!"
"When the Madam arrived, she saw the Princess's carriage in front of her, so she wanted to go around it. There happened to be an empty space in front, so she parked the carriage there. Unexpectedly, it belonged to Miss Liang. Now, now!"
After she finished speaking, she burst into tears again, choking as she cried.
"The imperial physician said there's a high probability that the child won't survive. What should we do, Lieutenant General?"
These words undoubtedly pushed Chu Zhiyao into an invisible abyss.
In her previous life, Luo Zhaozhao had conceived two children, but neither of them was born for various reasons.
Having a child together has always been Chu Zhiyao's dream. He thought that in his new life, he could make up for this regret, but he didn't expect this to be the result.
His body slumped heavily, all the strength drained from him, he couldn't believe this was actually happening.
"No matter what... let the imperial physician give him good care. Zhao Zhao's health is the most important..."
"I heard some noise, what happened?"
A leisurely voice came over, Chu Zhiyao slowly turned his head, and Leiman came out with a leisurely step, holding a folding fan in his hand, looking at this scene with raised eyebrows.
"Deputy General Chu? Why are you here? What happened?"
Looking at Leiman, Chu Zhiyao's eyes suddenly became deadly.
"Use your Gu! Use your Gu! Use your Gu to save the baby in my belly! He is innocent, please save him!"
This crazy look made Leiman understand what was going on instantly. He closed his folding fan and tapped his chin.
"This can't be saved..."
"Why can't you save him?! Can't you even save Lin Song? Why..."
"Unless you want your child to be like Lin Song?"
Lehman then asked
"Do you want your child to be a container for Gu from birth?"
Chu Zhiyao was silent. He bit his lower lip tightly, blood kept flowing out of his fist, and his face turned pale. Suddenly, he looked at Leiman, his eyes full of determination and sinisterness.
"Then help me kill Gu Qingsheng! I know! You must have a backup plan for the mother-child Gu last time! I heard everything you said to your followers! Help me kill her! I'll give you the private army token!"
"Private Soldier's Token! You must really want it! As long as! As long as you can kill her! The Western Regions will all be yours!"
Everything in the new life is different from the previous life, especially the woman Gu Qingsheng, which makes Chu Zhiyao feel extremely scared.
He had never felt this way in his previous life.
This condition also silenced Lehman.
It has to be said that this is what he has always pursued, and he does have a backup plan for the matter of the mother-child Gu.
