Chapter 25 Delicate Palace Maid VS Cold Emperor 25
Su Zhiruan didn’t even need to listen to the next sentence before she felt her earlobe getting hot, and then it turned red.
She knew that during the confinement period, Shen Qi had asked the imperial physician when they could have sex.
The imperial physician said it would take about a month and a half, but for the sake of her good health, he endured it many times.
At first, Su Zhiruan suggested that he had so many concubines in his harem and he didn't need to endure for her.
Even though she had some feelings for Shen Qi, she was here to complete a mission after all, so there was no need to get too involved.
But unexpectedly, when she said that she could find other concubines, Shen Qi looked at her for a long time, which was unusual. When she was about to feel embarrassed by his burning gaze, he came up to her with grievance and said slowly, "Why are you pushing me away? I only want you. You and the child don't want me, so are you pushing me away..."
After she repeatedly assured him that she would not push him away, Shen Qi was finally satisfied. He kept persuading her, but he didn't take the last step. However, it made her burst into tears, her eyes slightly red, her legs and feet sore, and she fell on the bed.
Now, three months have passed. With the help of the system's novice gift package, Su Zhiruan not only did not have any postpartum problems, but became even more beautiful and charming. Unlike being coquettish, she has a mixture of maternal charm and some innocent charm.
This kind of contrast is the most fascinating. Shen Qi is already at an age of full of vigor and vitality, and he can't bear it any longer. Now seeing her like this, he can't control himself anymore. He makes a fuss until midnight every day, but never takes the final step.
"It's better to do it today than to wait for a day?" Su Zhiruan was on the swing, and the man was sitting next to her. They sat close to each other. She moved slightly and felt something strange in her waist. Then, she was picked up by Shen Qi, and the pain in her lower back became more obvious.
"In broad daylight, the emperor cannot do this in broad daylight..." Su Zhiruan laughed so hard that she doubled over. She jumped out of Shen Qi's arms and waved at the man with red eyes, "I'll go to see the emperor tonight?"
Shen Qi was so angry at her behavior that he laughed. He pressed his finger bones and said, "You will cry at night."
Here, the two of them gathered together and played happily.
And on the other side they didn't expect.
After they arrived at the palace, the imperial concubine also found an excuse, saying that she came to pray for Su Zhiruan and the little prince.
The Queen Mother already disliked her at this time, fearing that she would cause trouble, but seeing that she was sincere, she agreed.
With the comparison with Su Zhiruan, the Empress Dowager now finds everything about the Imperial Concubine unpleasant.
Su Zhiruan was dignified and polite, gentle and modest. She would not be arrogant or spoiled. She had been like this before. Even after she gave birth to the only prince of the dynasty, she did not ask for this or that.
The empress dowager knew without having to think that if the imperial concubine was pregnant, she would definitely become overbearing and tyrannical, causing unrest in the entire harem.
The Queen Mother took care of the little prince all day long. When she heard that the Imperial Concubine was coming, she even tasted the food herself, fearing that someone had drugged him.
The imperial concubine was in her own palace, picking at the medicine powder with her long, slender fingernails.
She held the small medicine bottle in one hand and used the fingernails of the other hand to pick up the medicine powder, which she then put back into the bottle. Her eyes were full of hostility and she was wearing a purple dress, which did not make her look noble, but instead made her look like a murderous ghost.
"Is this the medicine you got?" The imperial concubine spoke slowly and kicked the shivering little palace maid kneeling on the ground with her toes.
"Replying to Your Majesty, this is the medicine that I asked someone to get from outside the palace. It is extremely strong, and it is said that if a man comes into contact with it a little, he will become aroused instantly." The maid was a little scared at first, but perhaps because she was confident in her medicine, she bravely explained.
“Hmph, if it doesn’t work, I will send you and your family to the underworld!” The imperial concubine stood up and looked at the bottle carefully. When she looked over carefully, her eyes were not on the bottle. Perhaps it was because there was no one around. The imperial concubine spoke slowly and leisurely, “Now that the bitch Su Zhiruan has a child, it proves that your majesty is in good health. If that bitch can get pregnant, why can’t I! As long as I have a child, I can get rid of her child. By then, I will still be the Queen Mother—”
The little maid was extremely shocked. She knelt on the ground, not daring to look up at all.
I didn't expect the imperial concubine to be so ambitious!
The little palace maid suddenly began to feel sorry for the little prince and the rumored gentle and virtuous Concubine Yue.
As long as this vicious concubine is around, there will be no peace in the harem.
Even now, she herself might not be safe. The little maid thought about her own way out. After hearing such words today, would the imperial concubine let her go?!
Impossible! The imperial concubine hid the medicine in her sleeve, her eyes were fierce, and then she slowly smiled.
"Hahahaha, hahahahahaha! Su Zhiruan! How dare you, a lowly palace maid like you, fight against me!"
* On the other hand, neither Su Zhiruan nor Shen Qi knew that there was a concubine with ill intentions here.
After they walked out from the swing, they thought about going to see the child together.
Su Zhiruan was a worker in her previous life and had little time to interact with children. Suddenly, she saw this child, who was related to her by blood, blinking and turning over to look at her, as if asking for praise. She immediately gave him a few gentle compliments.
Shen Qi just watched and smiled.

Shen Xingzhi usually stayed in the empress dowager's palace to be taken care of. The empress dowager loved this hard-earned prince very much. She provided him with the best food, clothing and other necessities, and the old maids who served him were also the most attentive and dedicated.
Su Zhiruan and Shen Qi often came to see him. Such a young child was not shy at all and always babbled to get closer to Su Zhiruan and Shen Qi.
"You have worked hard these days, mother," Su Zhiruan held the child and thanked the queen mother. She did not have a good impression of her when she threatened her before, but after taking care of her for such a long time, she gradually felt the kindness of the old woman to her. "Such a big child is torturing, mother has worked hard."
"I am not tired. As long as I look at your child, I have hope in life. Watching the child change day by day is like carefully raising a pot of flowers," the Queen Mother couldn't help but sigh, "You two young couples should cultivate your relationship. I will be at ease watching over the child."
After saying this, the Queen Mother looked at them with a mischievous look and winked at Su Zhiruan.
These days, the two of them were almost inseparable. Before, because Su Zhiruan was pregnant, although they performed the Zhougong rituals, they did not dare to go too far. During the confinement period, Shen Qi was even more self-disciplined and did not overstep her boundaries to do anything bad.
Su Zhiruan was not shy at first, but she couldn't resist being too shy and her ears turned red.
Shen Qi hugged her and said, "Mother, let Xingzhi stay here with you. Let's go out and talk."
The Queen Mother waved her hand and said, "Go ahead! Don't worry about this."
