Chapter 164 He Wants to Kill Me
Upon hearing this, Emperor Xuanyuan thought for a moment and then nodded in agreement.
"Okay, I'll do as the Queen wishes. Consort Shu will be promoted to Imperial Consort, and her mother will stay in the palace until the pregnancy is stable. My own flesh and blood must be carefully cared for."
Upon hearing this, Concubine Shu's eyes turned red and she bowed down.
"I thank the Emperor for his grace and the Empress for her compassion."
The queen smiled gently and helped Concubine Shu up with her own hands.
"Sister, please get up. We are sisters, so there is no need to be so polite. I only hope that you can give birth to a healthy heir for the Emperor, and bring more blessings to our royal family."
Seeing the queen so virtuous, Emperor Xuanyuan reached out and held her hand.
"Queen, I know you are a virtuous queen, but you also need to pay more attention to your health. I see that you have lost a lot of weight. I am also very sad about the prince's affairs, but the living have to live their lives. Queen, I still need you, and Xuanyuan still needs the Queen Mother. You must cheer up."
When the prince was mentioned, the queen couldn't help crying and raised her hand to wipe the tears from the corners of her eyes.
"I understand. Your Majesty, please rest assured. I will be diligent in managing your harem and taking good care of the baby in my sister Shufei's belly, so as to share your worries."
The emperor patted her hands after hearing this.
"I am relieved to have you in this harem."
Concubine Shu spoke from the side.
"Seeing the Emperor and the Empress loving each other so deeply, I feel at ease."
The queen looked at Concubine Shu.
"Your Majesty, I know you haven't been to the harem for some time. Now that Concubine Shu is pregnant, Your Majesty, you should spend more time with Concubine Shu."
Emperor Xuanyuan nodded after hearing this.
"I will accompany Concubine Shu when I have time, but tonight, I will go to your palace for dinner."
Sun family.
Zhizhi came in with a bowl of bird's nest.
"Madam, this is the bird's nest that the kitchen prepared for you today. Although you are out of confinement after the baby's birth, your body is still very weak. You need to eat more good food to replenish your body."
Liu Qingqing glanced at the bird's nest on the table.
She took off the hairpin on her head, pulled out a silver needle from it, inserted it into the bird's nest in the bowl, and then picked it up.
Looking at the silver needle that had turned black, Liu Qingqing was so scared that she stood up suddenly, and the silver needle fell on the table.
Zhizhi was also scared.
"Oh my God."
"The silver needle turned black, there is poison in it..."
Then he looked at Liu Qingqing with a worried look.
"Madam, this... this... what should we do?"
Liu Qingqing cried and laughed, tears streaming down her face.
"Hahahaha, hahahahaha, what a Sun Hao! He really wants to attack me."
"The only person he truly loves is himself. Han Susu is right. He is a selfish person to the extreme."
Zhizhi spoke upon seeing this.
"Madam, could it really be the master?"
"Could there be some misunderstanding?"
Liu Qingqing looked at the bird's nest on the table and sat powerlessly on the chair. This was the person she loved deeply. For money and for her future, he was willing to take her life. Even though she heard their conversation in the restaurant that day, she still had a glimmer of hope in her heart.
I didn't expect that this little bit of luck would be shattered so quickly, and he would attack me so quickly.
"There is no misunderstanding."
"That's him."
"This is simply a huge joke. My husband killed my child and now he wants to kill me."
Those were the words that were spoken in the restaurant, and she heard them herself. Zhizhi found that she wanted to comfort Liu Qingqing, but she couldn't say anything.
Liu Qingqing's tears kept falling. She felt that her true love was misplaced after all. It was a pity for her child. He didn't even get to see the world and died in the hands of his own father.
Sun Hao, since you are unkind, don't blame me for being unjust.
I, Liu Qingqing, have loved you for so long, and you actually repay my sincerity in this way. Then you can go down and accompany our child.
"Zhizhi, where is the master now?"
Zhizhi spoke upon hearing this.
"The master went out early this morning and hasn't come back yet."
After hearing this, Liu Qingqing smiled bitterly and wiped the tears from her face.
"I'm afraid he went to see Han Susu again, and by the way, he also created an alibi for himself. If I died in the Sun family today, it would be just death."
"Have someone guard the door and tell me immediately when he returns."
Yikun Palace.
The table was filled with sumptuous food. Because the crown prince had gone, everyone knew the status of Prince Rong, and everyone became more concerned about the work of the Yikun Palace. The difference between the food on the table and the decorations in the Yikun Palace was obvious.
When she saw Lian Xin coming in, Concubine Yao couldn't wait to ask.
"How is it? Has the Emperor arrived?"
Lian Xin hurriedly lowered her head and shook it.
"Your Highness, please forgive me. I was useless and failed to invite the Emperor."
When Concubine Yao heard this, her face turned angry.
"A worthless thing."
Then he walked outside.
"Cuizhu, go with me and invite the Emperor to dinner."
Lian Xin spoke hurriedly.
"Your Majesty, you can't do that!"
Concubine Yao stopped and looked at her.
"Why not?"
Worried that Concubine Yao would get angry, Lian Xin spoke with some hesitation.
"The Emperor is busy with official duties..."
After hearing this, Concubine Yao spoke.
"Even if he's busy with official duties, it's evening time, and the Emperor must eat."
Lian Xin bit her lip helplessly after hearing this, and finally spoke.
"Your Majesty, the Emperor... the Emperor has come to Yongchun Palace."
Upon hearing this, Concubine Yao's face instantly turned ashen, and anger flashed in her eyes.
"Yongchun Palace? That bitch Concubine Shu!"
She clenched her fists so tightly that her nails almost dug into her palms, but she didn't feel any pain at all.
"Ever since the incident with the Crown Prince, the Emperor hasn't set foot in the harem. He finally made it into the harem, and last night he went to the Queen's place. After all, the Queen lost the Crown Prince, and the Emperor has to comfort her. What a bitch, Concubine Shu!"
Concubine Yao's voice trembled with anger, and the entire Yikun Palace seemed to be able to feel her rage.
Lian Xin was secretly anxious when she saw this, but she didn't dare to say anything. She could only lower her head and remain silent.
Cuizhu was also trembling with fear, afraid that she would accidentally anger the imperial concubine.
"My Lady, calm down. We shouldn't bother with people who are not worth it."
"Let's go!" Imperial Concubine Yao turned around abruptly, a flicker of determination in her eyes. "I want to go and see what means Concubine Shu has to snatch the Emperor away from me!"
Lian Xin hurriedly walked over to Concubine Yao and knelt down.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, forget it. If you go there at this time... I'm afraid the Emperor will be angry."
"Please listen to what this servant has to say, Your Majesty."
Upon hearing this, the anger in Concubine Yao's eyes grew even more intense.
"Go away! Are you going to stop me from seeing the Emperor?"
Lian Xin reached out and hugged Concubine Yao's legs.
"Your Majesty, Concubine Shu is pregnant, and the Emperor has issued an edict to promote her to Concubine Shu."
"and…………"
Concubine Yao looked at Lian Xin with anger on her face.
"And what?"
"Speak now, why are you hesitating in front of me?"
Lian Xin spoke helplessly.
"The Emperor has arranged for the Imperial Physician to nurse Concubine Shu back to health, and has also allowed Madam Cui to stay in the palace to accompany her."
When Imperial Concubine Yao heard this, her body swayed slightly, as if she was hit by an invisible force.
All of this seemed like a direct challenge to her position. She took a deep breath, trying to calm her inner turmoil, a cold light flashing in her eyes.
"Well, what a good Concubine Shu, she is really clever, she actually got a child so quickly."
Concubine Yao sneered, her voice filled with unquestionable determination.
"I want to see whether it's her belly that's doing the trick or whether I'm more ruthless."
"If she could have a miscarriage once, she could have a miscarriage a second time."
