Chapter 174 Don’t Come Over
"Nothing's happening over there, Concubine Fang, right?"
Shen Lingshu looked at her swollen feet. Getting pregnant is really not an easy thing!
I don’t know if it was because of the time travel in the drama, but her pregnancy and childbirth went smoothly. Except for half a month of morning sickness when she was three months pregnant, she enjoyed everything she ate for the rest of the time!
After the late stage of pregnancy, her legs were a little swollen and she couldn't see her feet when she stood. Even though someone was taking care of her all the time, she still felt extremely tired.
After Chu Cong became the crown prince, unless he was very busy, he would come to see her and her two daughters every evening, and talk to the baby in her belly.
Although life in the Eastern Palace was boring, she had no worries about food and clothing. The only thing that worried her was Concubine Fang!
Concubine Fang wanted to give birth to the prince's eldest son. Now she was about to give birth, but Concubine Fang still had more than a month to go. She would never believe that Concubine Fang would not give any movement at all.
"Master, Concubine Fang has met with Princess Hui and Concubine Rou."
Zhu Xin answered in a low voice, "Madame Hua also said that Concubine Fang secretly met with Concubine Shu."
"Noble Concubine Shu?"
Shen Lingshu raised her eyebrows. Prince Heng was going to his fiefdom after the New Year, and Concubine Fang was going to see Concubine Shu? Was she out of her mind?
Qiutang Courtyard.
The several courtyards of the Eastern Palace were still named according to the previous ones. In the inner rooms, all the maids, no, palace maids were sent outside, leaving only Concubine Fang and Nanny Gui in the inner rooms.
"Concubine, Imperial Concubine Shu is Prince Heng's biological mother. She will definitely not sincerely help you." Nanny Gui was terrified. Ever since the concubine met Imperial Concubine Shu, something was wrong.
"Madam Gui, the prince is now the crown prince. Although Imperial Concubine Shu is in charge of the six palaces, Prince Heng is about to leave for his fiefdom. Imperial Concubine Shu must have something to ask of me. She wants me to speak well of the prince so that Prince Heng can return to the capital in the future."
Concubine Fang has now become the Crown Prince's concubine, and now she is even more high and mighty. She curled her lips slightly and said, "Mammy, I know what you are worried about. You are just worried that I will become a knife for Concubine Shu. But don't worry, Mammy. If she can use me, I can use her too!"
"Just do as I say!"
Concubine Fang said, repeatedly reminding: "This matter must be handled with extreme caution."
"Yes." Aunt Gui had a lot to say, but in the end, she didn't say a single word. At worst, she would just be more careful.
Snow was falling in the cold winter, and Shen Lingshu hardly ever went out.
The outside world's news was entirely up to Zhuxin and Liusi to find out, until...
"Master, the princess has entered the palace."
Zhu Xin told the news she had just received. As soon as she entered the room, Shen Lingshu started coughing. She said, "Zhu Xin, what's that smell on you?"
Shen Lingshu covered her chest and looked at Zhu Xin. Her sixth sense always told Zhu Xin not to enter the house.
"No."
Zhu Xin raised her hand and smelled the smell on her body. She looked confused, and seeing Shen Lingshu covering her nose, she didn’t dare to get close, and said: “This is the clothes that the princess sent to the two young masters, and a piece of top-grade warm jade, saying that it is good for the masters.”
"Leave it alone. I always have a bad smell."
Shen Lingshu was tormented by the smell and couldn't help vomiting. Zhu Xin didn't dare to get close. Soon, Doctor Lin came.
No, now he should be called Doctor Lin.
With the birth approaching, Shen Lingshu was vomiting uncontrollably, and Doctor Lin was naturally very worried. After taking her pulse, he said strangely: "Concubine Shen, your pulse... is fine."
Not only is it very good, the child's pulse is also good, but why did Concubine Shen vomit?
"I am not talented enough to find out the cause." Doctor Lin shook his head, his brows furrowed enough to kill a mosquito.
Soon, Madam Cui, who had received the news, also came and examined Shen Lingshu. After looking at her condition, she asked, "Did you come into contact with anything wrong today?"
"No."
Shen Lingshu shook her head.
Liu Si, who was standing by, said, "The concubine felt that Miss Zhuxin smelled strange today. Miss Zhuxin was carrying the clothes and warm jade that Her Royal Highness the Princess gave her."
"All the things are stored here. We didn't even dare to collect them in the warehouse."
Zhuxin stood outside the door, trembling, holding something.
Madam Cui and Doctor Lin almost rushed to the two items. The exquisite and beautiful little bellyband and jacket had fine stitching, and they were obviously top-quality items.
Warm jade feels extraordinary when held in the hand. Even in the cold winter, it feels warm in the hand.
"They are all good things, but they shouldn't be."
Doctor Lin examined her carefully, then looked at Zhu Xin with reluctance and said, "Miss Zhu Xin, could you please let Lin Gan see the clothes you are wearing?"
Doctor Lin really didn't smell any strange smell on Zhuxin.
"Yes, allow me to change my clothes."
Zhu Xin took off all her clothes from inside to outside.
Madam Cui and Imperial Physician Lin carefully examined the clothes and found nothing wrong. Imperial Physician Lin and Madam Cui looked at each other and said, "I'm afraid this is still not right."
Doctor Lin looked again and again, and told Zhu Xin not to leave the room. Suddenly, Madam Cui sniffed the small dress given by the princess and said, "Doctor Lin, smell the incense on it. Isn't it a little strange?"
"This is the normal sweet orange fragrance." Doctor Lin said confidently.
"No, there seems to be another kind of fragrance in this citrus scent, it's very light."
Madam Cui had smelled this kind of fragrance before in the countryside and frowned, saying, "It's mixed with the scent of citrus, very light, it's musk."
"impossible."
Doctor Lin took the clothes and smelled them again.
Madam Cui picked up the warm jade and smelled it. The fragrant warm jade seemed to have this smell.
"fragrant?"
Shen Lingshu immediately said, "Go and ask Aunt Hua."
Mama Hua is also very knowledgeable about perfume making.
When Aunt Hua came over and smelled it, her face immediately darkened and she said, "Madam Cui, you smelled it right. There is indeed musk in it!"
"Fortunately, the concubine smelled it and felt something was wrong, so she took it out immediately. She vomited, so it should be fine now."
Nanny Hua looked at Doctor Lin and asked.
"Yes, the concubine and the child are both fine." Doctor Lin answered affirmatively.
When Chu Cong came back and heard that someone had used musk on Shen Lingshu, he was furious. Full-term delivery and inducing labor with musk are completely different!
When Chu Cong learned that it was sent in by the princess, he immediately summoned the princess who was about to leave the palace.
"Second brother, what do you think of the little clothes I gave you?"
Princess Ling Zhao chattered, "And the warm jade, I specially ordered people to find it, I..."
Her words finally stopped in Chu Cong's cold eyes. She felt that her second brother was as scary as her father at this moment.
Ling Zhao took a step back: "Brother, did I do something wrong?"
