Situ Yao was silent about this. He did not deny that the Queen Mother's method was indeed a good one, but the Prime Minister was a man with a big heart. If Lin Xiangru had a child, he didn't know whether his heart would be even bigger.
Situ Yao didn't want to take any risks.
"Alright, Grandmother, I'll take care of this matter. Grandmother, you're old now, so don't worry about it."
After this battle with the Empress Dowager, Situ Yao felt very bad. Unknowingly, he came to Su Mengyan again.
He told Su Mengyan about what happened between him and the Grand Empress Dowager. Su Mengyan smiled slightly after hearing it: "Your Majesty, you are worrying too much. The Grand Empress Dowager is right. I am indeed about to give birth. Let alone taking care of two children, whether I will be partial or not, I am definitely too busy to handle it."
"Besides, you also know that Cui Mixue and I have always been at odds. No matter how attentive I am to her child, if anything goes wrong with that child, those ministers will think they have something to hold against them, and it's not a big deal."
After hearing what Su Mengyan said, Situ Yao finally reacted. Yes, no matter what, it is inevitable for children to get sick and feel uncomfortable, but if something goes wrong in Su Mengyan's hands, there will definitely be some people who will use this as a handle.
"In that case, you can't raise this child."
"Yes, and the Empress Dowager is right. It is best to give the child to Lin Xiangru. Lin Xiangru's father is the Prime Minister. If anything happens to the child in her hands, the Prime Minister will naturally lose power." Su Mengyan continued to persuade.
Helpless, Situ Yao was ready to give the child to Lin Xiangru to raise. But at this time, the problem arose again. According to Lin Xiangru's status, she could not raise the child.
"Your Majesty, why can't you let it go? Her current status cannot support a child, so why not raise her status?" Su Mengyan said with a smile.
She knew that Situ Yao was not such a stupid person. It was just because this matter involved Situ Zhao, and there was a deep resentment between him and Situ Zhao, so it had a certain impact on this matter.
In this way, Lin Xiangru's identity suddenly changed from Lin Guiren to Yuepin, and Qiuyue became Lin Xiangru's child and was named a princess.
"That's great, that's great. I'm not a noble anymore. Qiuyue, my child, I will treat you well in the future." Lin Xiangru received the imperial decree to make her a concubine, and murmured to herself while holding Qiuyue in her arms.
She didn't expect that just by having one more child, her status would rise dramatically, from a noble lady to a concubine.
At the beginning, she did dislike Qiuyue, but later she thought about taking good care of Qiuyue. She even thought that Qiuyue would only be in her hands for a period of time. When the emperor and the queen were free, they would naturally make some plans for Qiuyue.
So after taking care of Qiuyue for a while, she had planned to return Qiuyue to the emperor and the queen. Unexpectedly, a surprise came out of the blue at this moment. Not only did she get the custody of Qiuyue and become Qiuyue's mother, but her status was also promoted because of Qiuyue. How could she not be happy?
She was the first one to become a concubine in the harem, and she was also the first one to have a princess. With these two firsts, Lin Xiangru felt more confident.
So she held little Qiuyue in her arms and kept repeating that she would take good care of Qiuyue and be a good mother to her in the future.
Lin Xiangru was so excited about this surprise that he even went to bed a little later than usual.
On the other side, Qiuyue had already fallen asleep. Lin Xiangru looked at Qiuyue with love in his eyes and eyebrows.
"Ah." Lin Xiangru yawned. Only then did she realize that it was already late at night, so she prepared to rest.
I don’t know how long she slept, but suddenly I heard Qiuyue crying heart-wrenchingly beside me.
"What's wrong, Qiuyue? Are you okay?" Lin Xiangru jumped up, held the little child in his arms, and kept coaxing the child.
However, usually the child would fall asleep peacefully again after a few words of coaxing. But today, after coaxing him for a long time, the child was still crying loudly.
Lin Xiangru carefully checked the child and found that he had not urinated or was not hungry. Could it be that he was hot? Lin Xiangru touched the child's body. "Oh, why is it so hot?"
It was at this moment that Lin Xiangru realized that the child was sick.
"Doctor, come, call the doctor, Qiuyue has a high fever."
Knowing that Qiuyue had a high fever, Lin Xiangru was immediately worried. What should he do if the child fell ill at such a young age?
There were people in the Imperial Medical Bureau even at night, because they were afraid that something might happen to the master in the palace.
After hearing what the palace maid said, the imperial physician hurriedly followed the palace maid to Lin Xiangru.
Because of the high fever, Qiuyue felt very uncomfortable and cried from time to time. After a night passed and the day finally dawned, Qiuyue felt better and fell asleep obediently with her eyes closed.
Looking at Qiuyue sleeping peacefully, Lin Xiangru raised a smile at the corner of his mouth. Fortunately, the child was fine.
After covering the child with the quilt, Lin Xiangru felt that his eyelids were getting heavier and heavier.
Not only Lin Xiangru did not get a good rest that night, but Su Mengyan did not get a good rest either.
At night, Su Mengyan's calves suddenly started to hurt. As a modern person, Su Mengyan knew that this might be due to a calcium deficiency during pregnancy, which caused the leg cramps.
However, she knew, but the maids in her palace did not.
In the middle of the night, Su Mengyan was sleeping when she suddenly felt a pain in her leg. She was still asleep when she was instantly awakened by the pain, and a lot of sweat broke out on her forehead.
"Empress, are you okay?" Upon hearing Su Mengyan's scream, a palace maid immediately lit a lamp and ran over to ask Su Mengyan if she was okay.
However, Su Mengyan's voice was quite loud, and many palace maids were alarmed. They immediately ran over, fearing that something might happen to their master.
Originally, Su Mengyan thought that her legs were cramping and would be fine after a while, but she didn't expect that her legs would hurt for a long time.
She didn't care much about it, but the maids in her palace were all extremely anxious.
On the other hand, because all the palace maids were paying attention to Su Mengyan's affairs, Cui Mixue relaxed.
"Waaaa." The baby's crying sound faintly reached Cui Mixue's ears.
Cui Mixue was originally resting, but she was awakened by Su Mengyan's cry. There was no one around her at the moment and it was extremely quiet, so the sound could only be faintly heard by her ears.
"Child, my child." Cui Mixue knew that the crying voice must be her child.
Thinking of her own child, Cui Mixue felt a little sad. The child was taken away by Situ Yao, and now he
She had no idea where the child was.
