Chapter 188 Zhao Chang is in danger



Nowadays, morning meetings are getting shorter and shorter.

One of the reasons was that the majesty of the Queen Mother was becoming increasingly apparent, the palace was peaceful, major incidents were rare, and minor incidents were quickly resolved.

The second reason was that the emperor learned about the scandal of the concubines buying files, and his interest in recruiting new people suddenly dropped.

As a result, the concubines in the palace had less sense of crisis and could only talk about the past when chatting.

——Today we are talking about the ten most mysterious and mysterious events in the palace.

[The top ten supernatural events in the palace... so interesting, let me hear what they are about? ]

【The first supernatural event. 】

[…The female ghost that hangs around outside Concubine Shu's door every night? ]

[Oh, that's Concubine Mu! Her martial arts skills are so amazing that she was mistaken for a female ghost because of her speed.]

Concubine Shu frowned, a little dissatisfied.

It turned out that Concubine Mu was the culprit who disturbed her sleep?

When she looked over, Concubine Mu lowered her ordinary face in a hurry, and her earlobes turned red.

Concubine Shu:?

She seemed to realize that something was wrong.

【The second supernatural event. 】

[…The sound of crying hovering behind the rockery in the Imperial Garden? ]

[How can this be considered a supernatural event? It should be treated as a legal event and the person should be convicted of gang violence.]

[Behind the rockery is actually a place of pleasure that the palace ladies secretly know about. Men and women usually go there to make love.]

[Oh, everyone knows it. Legend has it that there are only two functions: one is to attract people to spend money, and the other is to prevent outsiders from peeping.]

[If a servant often mentions the crying in the imperial garden to the concubines, asking the master to avoid suspicion - then this servant is likely to be "battle-hardened" and hopes that his master will never find out about this matter in his lifetime. ]

Concubines: "..."

They began to think urgently about who they had heard this story from.

The queen held her forehead with her hand. After the morning meeting, she ordered people to flatten the rockery in the imperial garden.

【The third supernatural event. 】

[…The Linhua Palace well was filled because the imperial concubine threw too many corpses into the well? ]

[This is nonsense! The imperial concubine is very hygienic, okay?! ]

Concubine Lin nodded in agreement.

She never dirtys her hands when she kills people, so would she hide the bodies in her own bedroom?

This is an insult to her wisdom and means.

Wu Qing added nonchalantly: [However, other palaces have thrown corpses into wells before.]

[It existed in the previous dynasty, and it also exists in this dynasty. 】

[The underground water system is interconnected, and the water source has long been polluted. ]

[So I've been going to the emperor's place recently to drink the spring water brought from Yushan. Of course, in the past, I always drank boiled water.]

[I wonder how many people in the palace have drunk the well water? It should be quite a lot.]

The concubines looked pale: "... Ugh."

The queen looked solemn: "..."

Very good, the water cleaning operation in the palace is imminent.

When Wu Qing woke up, the morning meeting was over.

She stretched her facial features and prepared to go to the study room to supervise Qin Lixue's teaching assistant work.

Just at this moment, Apprentice Xiahou rushed in. He looked around until he saw Wu Qing's shadow.

In this huge Kunning Palace, the person he was most familiar with and trusted the most was Concubine Ji.

Xiahou Cheng breathed a sigh of relief, and the tension and anxiety in his heart instantly dissipated. "Lady Ji, something terrible has happened. Concubine Zhao is about to give birth!"

Xiao Luzi at the door looked stern and shouted, "Who is so bold as to trespass into Kunning Palace?"

He stopped Xiahou Cheng from entering.

Wu Qing signaled Xiao Luzi to stay calm, then she turned to Xiahou Cheng and asked calmly, "Don't panic, tell me slowly, what happened?"

Xiahou Cheng calmed down and continued, "Zhao Changzai suddenly launched an attack just now, but... the situation seems a little bad."

After the morning meeting, the concubines went out in twos and threes. From time to time, I would observe their conversation from the side.

No matter how upright Xiahou Cheng was, he knew that he could not casually talk about Zhao Changzai's life and death in front of the concubines.

"Noble Lady Ji, I'd like to trouble you to go and take a look." Xiahou Cheng lowered his voice, his face still anxious.

Lady Ji was able to cure Miss Zhu's illness with just a sachet, and her medical skills were far superior to his.

If she was willing to take care of Zhao Changzai, then Zhao Changzai's life would be more secure.

Shangpin, who was passing by, stopped and asked curiously, "You said that Concubine Zhao's condition was worrying, so where are the imperial doctors? Why did you come to report it?"

"The imperial doctors are all gathered around Zhao Changzai at the moment and have no time to spare."

Xiahou Cheng urged anxiously, "Lady Ji, please hurry up, it's really urgent!"

Concubine Lin came over holding a hand warmer and said unhappily, "What a noisy and chaotic place! The delivery room is a place of blood and energy, and Concubine Ji has never had any childbirth experience, so what can she do?"

"Your Imperial Hospital can't do it, so why are you asking her, who is not even a doctor, to do it?"

The birth of a prince is a major event for the country. Any mistake will lead to a catastrophic disaster. If Wu Qing goes there and something goes wrong...

Wu Qing didn't want to go either, because she knew that there was no way the child could be born safely.

But when he heard that Zhao Chang was dying, Wu Qing felt pity again.

She thought about it and said, "I'll go with you."

Xiahou Cheng's face lit up with joy, but Concubine Lin grabbed Wu Qing's wrist.

"Have you thought it through?" Concubine Lin frowned and said, "This is not a joke."

Wu Qing also said with a sad face: "My queen, if I don't go, I will always feel bad. Instead of that, I would rather do my best to help, which can be regarded as an explanation to myself."

Concubine Lin sighed: "... Never mind. If that's the case, I'll go with you."

"And, not just me, all of you——are going."

Concubine Lin called out to all the concubines who were passing by to watch the fun.

The concubines pointed at themselves silently and confirmed, "Your Majesty, are you saying... that we should go too?"

Concubine Lin sneered: "Why? You are not even older than me, but you are all deaf?"

The concubines laughed awkwardly, and even though they were reluctant, they still followed Wu Qing and the imperial concubine.

...They are actually very curious about what is going on with Zhao Changzai?
