Chapter 216: Being spoiled and arrogant (2/2)



Concubine Shu did not immediately defend herself, but took out a jade pendant that she had prepared: "Your Majesty, Si Yi is still young and simple-minded. He only wants to give his favorite thing to the prince. I have already prepared this jade pendant, but Si Yi felt that this jade pendant was not prepared by him, and he still insisted on giving it to Mu Qingting."

Concubine Shu's tone was calm, but everyone present could hear a sense of grievance.

Indeed, for a child, the most important thing must be his or her favorite toy. Su Siyi put a lot of effort into choosing the gift, but she didn't expect that Concubine Yun and Emperor Wei Jing would not like it, which really hurt the child's heart.

Emperor Jing of Wei was a little embarrassed: "Since you have prepared it, why didn't you take it out earlier?"

Concubine Shu smiled and said nothing.

But the balance in everyone's hearts began to tilt between the domineering Concubine Yun and the gentle and kind Concubine Shu.

The former dynasty and the harem were originally one.

Officials below the rank of concubine would not care, but concubines above the rank of concubine would be watched by many officials. Whenever they did anything out of line, the censor would be the first to ask for orders.

But Concubine Yun was now arrogant because of her favor and didn't notice at all that many people's eyes on her had changed.

Su Ruian was the last to give a gift. After she gave the gift, she reached out to hug Su Chengsi: "Let me hug my brother, and share in the good luck."

Concubine Yun originally didn't want Su Ruian to hold her, but after hearing her say something auspicious, she held Su Chengsi in her arms and asked, "Does Master Ruian have any happy events recently?"

Su Ruian held Su Chengsi in his arms and said casually, "I haven't been feeling well these past few days, so I asked a royal doctor to check my pulse. I didn't expect it to be a happy pulse. So I thought, if I hold Chengsi in my arms, I can share in the good fortune and maybe I can give birth to a boy."

These words were like a stone thrown into an already restless lake, instantly causing an uproar.

"Master, this is a great joy." Concubine Yun congratulated him.

Many people knew that Su Ruian had a miscarriage, but few people knew that she had sustained a serious injury. No one doubted that she was pregnant again, but they subconsciously looked at Su Chenyu, who got married on the same day as Su Ruian.

"Master Rui'an is already pregnant, and I wonder when we can hear the good news from Master Fengyi?" Concubine Yun's words expressed the thoughts of many people.

Su Chenyu looked at Su Ruian, who was lowering his head to coax the child, with an unclear look in his eyes.

It is obviously impossible for Su Ruian to get pregnant again, so is this pregnancy real or fake?

"We haven't even had a month to get married yet, and my master and Yan Qing don't want to have one more person so soon." Su Chenyu answered naturally, with happiness that could not be concealed in her smile.

Concubine Yun didn't believe that Li Li Yanqing didn't care about offspring: "My Lord, this person can't be too selfish. You can't just take care of yourself, you have to take into account the feelings of your husband. Now that we are married, it's natural to give birth to an heir for the husband's family as soon as possible, otherwise wouldn't it be too useless and make people laugh?"

If a wife has been married for more than a month and still has no signs of pregnancy, her husband's family will be extremely worried.

Emperor Jing of Wei naturally knew this as well: "Feng Yi, if you are not well, you should take care of yourself and not be afraid of seeing a doctor."

By saying this in front of so many people, Emperor Jing of Wei was trying to ruin Su Chenyu's reputation.

Li Yanqing walked to Su Chenyu and bowed to Emperor Jing of Wei: "Your Majesty, what your Majesty said is indeed what I think. Moreover, it is recorded in medical books that a woman should not give birth to a child too young, otherwise it will be bad for her health. Your Majesty and I are still young, so there is no need to rush."

As he spoke, Li Liyanqing looked at Concubine Yun again, "As for what Concubine Yun said just now, I don't understand it. Is it true that a woman is only valuable if she gives birth to a child as soon as possible after getting married? If it is true what Concubine Yun said, then after you give birth to the prince, will you no longer have any value?"
