Chapter 95 Concubine Ning is pregnant

Shupin moved her body, sighed and said, "Xingxue, you have to understand mother. Mother thinks that Crown Prince Helian is the crown prince of a country. If you marry him, you will be the crown princess and the queen in the future. Naturally, it is a very good marriage."

The second princess shook her head, as if she didn't want to talk about it anymore: "There is one thing I don't understand, please enlighten me, mother."

But she didn't wait for Shupin to ask, she just said: "Why is mother so against Madam Chen? Is it really because Madam Chen's position is higher than yours?"

When Shupin heard her suddenly bring up this matter, a trace of panic flashed across her eyes, but she pretended to be calm and said, "She has only been in the palace for five years, and she is not a favored concubine. She just relied on her family background. She was actually named a noble concubine just because she gave birth to a daughter. How can this be justified?"

"Mother is not like that," the Second Princess looked at Shupin firmly, the tenderness in her eyes had long been replaced by indifference, "Mother was in collusion with Defei to kill the late emperor, and Defei had the evidence in her hands, so she had to target Empress Chen everywhere."

When Shupin heard this, she sat up suddenly and said, "What nonsense are you talking about!"

"Mother, you don't have to hide it from me. You used to take me to the palace of Concubine De. I could already remember it then."

"Mother deeply feels that Hengshu has already offended Empress Chen to death, so it is better to go all the way to the end."

"So what?" Seeing the Second Princess say this, Shupin no longer tried to hide it. After all, she was her daughter, so how could she side with someone else? "Are you going to tell her about me?"

The second princess shook her head again.

Seeing her like this, Shupin sneered and said, "Then why are you telling me all this? Are you trying to control me?"

"I have already told Empress Chen. Today I am here to tell Mother. Empress Chen will definitely come to interrogate Mother soon. Mother, you'd better explain everything clearly. This will save your life."

Shupin was speechless for a moment, and her expression gradually became stiff: "You are crazy! What good will my death do to you!"

"Mother, sooner or later, Empress Chen will find out about you. If that's the case, I might as well speak up for you to save your life."

Shupin became even angrier after hearing this. She immediately stood up and slapped the Second Princess in the face: "I'd rather not support you!"

"Yes," the second princess seemed to feel no pain, only two lines of tears fell, "I would rather my mother had never given birth to me."

After saying this, he stood up and prepared to walk out: "Mother, Concubine De is gone now. Being honest is your only way out."

He left the main hall without looking back.

Shupin watched the door of the main hall being closed helplessly, unable to utter a word. She sat paralyzed on the ground. It seemed that she had chosen the wrong path.

Not long after the second princess left, Zhuying and Meiying came to Shupin, who just sneered.

I’m afraid Concubine Chen will never see me again.

At this time, Concubine Chen Gui was free. Although she had a lot of things to do, she didn't want to do anything. She just teased Lu Xingwan absent-mindedly.

His eyes vaguely drifted towards the gate of Qingyun Palace.

Seeing Concubine Chen Guifei like this, Lu Xingwan couldn't help but feel sorry for her.

[I think my aunt must be a very good sister, that's why my mother misses her so much. ]

[Don't worry, mom. I will treat you well in the future, just like my aunt, okay? ]

[Mother is taking good care of both Brother Crown Prince and Sister Xingruo now, Auntie must be very happy.]

[But mother has to take care of herself too. Aunt is mother's sister first, then wife, then queen, then mother. Aunt must want mother to live an easy and comfortable life.]

【As carefree as you were when you were young. 】

Concubine Chen couldn't help but hug Lu Xingwan, but Lu Xingwan just thought that Concubine Chen was sad.

Concubine Chen Gui was persuaded by Lu Xingwan. She had to admit that she was very good at comforting people. She wanted to live well, not for the Dingguo Marquisate, not for the Great Chu Emperor, not for the children, but for herself and for Song Qingyan to live comfortably.

Just as Concubine Chen was feeling sentimental, Jin Xin knocked on the door and came in.

"Your Majesty, Concubine Ning is pregnant." His tone was full of loneliness.

Concubine Chen Gui smiled and said, "Concubine Ning has been in the palace for so long and is favored by His Majesty. It's time for her to get pregnant."

Jin Xin, on the other hand, could not help but complain, "Your Highness is still laughing! Concubine Ning is now favored by His Majesty. If she gives birth to another prince or princess, wouldn't it make our Princess Yong'an look inferior?"

Seeing that Concubine Chen still looked indifferent, Jin Xin continued, "I know that Your Majesty doesn't care about these things, but in this palace, favor is status, and only with status can Your Majesty live a better life."

[Look, mother, your maids are more aggressive than you! ]

Concubine Chen couldn't help but hold her forehead and said, "But Concubine Ning is pregnant now. I can't just abort her child, can I?"

After saying this, he felt that what he said was inappropriate and quickly covered his mouth.

These words made Lu Xing's alarm bells ring loudly.

[Mother, you are right. Mother, you must not come in contact with Concubine Ning these days. What if she accidentally miscarries and blames you? ]

[I think Concubine Ning has been acting strange recently. She seems to be trying to win the emperor's favor. Now that the emperor is favoring her, mother must be careful.]

[If you have to contact her, you must have someone else present. I have seen this in a story before. In order to frame the heroine, someone deliberately fell into the water and falsely accused the heroine of pushing him into the water. There were only two people present at the time, so the heroine would have no way to defend herself.]

[It's terrible, it's really terrible. Concubine Ning is a good person, how could she change so suddenly? ]

Concubine Chen felt that what Lu Xingwan said made sense, so she immediately told Jinxin: "Jinxin, spread the word outside that I'm sick..."

Just as Jin Xin was puzzled, Concubine Chen Guifei changed her tone and said, "Go and call Miss Qionghua and Jinyu in as well."

Qionghua had nothing to do in the palace. As soon as Jinxin arrived at her room and said that Concubine Chen asked her to go, she hurried to the main hall.

And Lu Xingwan was muttering to himself.

[So is Sister Qionghua my Sister Qionghua? She looks exactly like my Sister Qionghua. Could it be that she has lost her memory? ]

Lu Xingwansi had no idea that she was just a child now. How could Qionghua recognize her?

Seeing Qionghua enter the room, Concubine Chen Guifei said without further ado: "Miss Qionghua, I don't want to see anyone these days. I want to pretend to be sick. Do you have any ideas?"

Qiong Hua thought that this queen was really interesting. Why did she pretend to be sick when there was nothing wrong?

He laughed softly and asked, "How long do you want to be sick, Madam? Three to five days or more than a month?"
