Chapter 2250 A Lowered Eye
Then he saw a stream of clear water shooting out from the cradle and spraying directly onto his body.
“……!”
Zhu Feng's eyes suddenly widened.
Nan Yan saw this scene from the side, was stunned for a moment, and suddenly came to her senses.
Zhu Feng was actually drenched in boy's urine!
"puff--"
She almost couldn't help laughing, but fortunately she remembered that it was still the funeral of the late Queen, so she could only cover her mouth and turn her face to the side.
Zhu Feng himself was stunned. He looked down at his chest which was wet, then turned around to see his concubine covering her mouth and trying hard not to laugh.
“…”
After a long silence, he said with both anger and amusement, "This brat can eat and poop at the same time."
And the little baby lying in the cradle actually made two chuckles at him after peeing.
Nan Yan suppressed her laughter and hurriedly took out her handkerchief to help Zhu Feng wipe it, but Zhu Feng blocked her with his hand and said, "Wrap him in the swaddle quickly, don't let him catch a cold."
"yes."
Sure enough, a father only has eyes for his children.
Nan Yan responded and went to swaddle the child. She then looked up and said to the outside, "Someone, change the emperor's clothes."
Xiao Shunzi, who was guarding the door, hurried in. When he saw the emperor in such a miserable state, he was frightened and asked someone to bring him clothes. After washing them a little, he gave them to Zhu Feng to change into.
Zhu Feng changed his clothes and walked over with his hands behind his back.
At this moment, Cheng Jun in the cradle became more energetic. He clasped his two little hands together, scratching with his little fingers, and grinned at him.
Zhu Feng also smiled, which was rare.
Nan Yan picked up the heavy swaddling clothes and said with a wry smile, "This child has been so lawless since he was young. What will he be like when he grows up?"
Zhu Feng said, "That's the best way."
“…”
"Boys, if you don't indulge yourself, what's the point of being locked up in a cage and obeying orders every day?"
Nan Yan said: "Even if this is the case, you still have to be obedient and not act unruly."
As she spoke, she softly said to the rosy little face in the cradle, "When you grow up, you must listen to your father and your mother."
“…”
"You have to listen to your brother too."
Hearing this, Zhu Feng glanced at her.
He didn't say anything, just asked, "Have you explained what happened tonight?"
Nan Yan hurriedly said, "I've already gone to Sishanmen to report it, and the King of Wei has also sent people to make arrangements."
"That's good."

When Rong'er returned to the side hall of Yanxi Palace, Chen Lianxiang was sitting by the bed with a frown on her face. When she saw her come in, she immediately asked, "How is it?"
Rong'er came forward and bowed, saying, "Don't worry, Concubine, Dou'er's case has been dealt with."
"How to deal with it?"
"He was banished from the palace. I found a way to give him some money. He received the money and left happily. That matter will never be leaked."
"Where's Fu'er?"
"He's recuperating down there. I took a look and saw that it was just a crack at the corner of his mouth. Fortunately, no other parts of his body were injured."
After hearing this, Shen Lianxiang breathed a sigh of relief.
Rong'er looked at the red and swollen fingerprints on her face and said hurriedly, "Your Majesty's face is still injured. Let me apply some medicine to you."
"Um."
Rong'er took the ointment and carefully applied it on her face.
The ointment was carefully refined and slightly transparent. It was not noticeable when applied on the face. It also had a cooling effect. Shen Lianxiang immediately felt much better.
But her brows were still furrowed.
Rong'er put away the medicine box and saw her like this, and asked softly, "Jieyu, why do you still look so worried?"
“…”
"Princess Xi—oh no, Concubine Ruan, wasn't she demoted?"
“…”
"Jieyu deliberately let Dou'er say those words to prevent her from stepping on our heads and bullying us. Now, she has the same rank as Jieyu, so we can say that our mission is accomplished."
“…”
Chen Lianxiang said nothing, her brows furrowed even tighter.
Indeed, she spent a lot of money to bribe Dou'er to deliberately go to Sishan Gate to annoy the people around Ruan Mei and fight with them on purpose, just to lead the emperor to see how Ruan Mei acted arbitrarily during the funeral of the late queen, and also take the opportunity to tell those things to the emperor and let him know his own merits.
In fact, she originally didn't plan to come forward so soon.
Everyone knows that the one who sticks out will be punished, especially in the harem. Not to mention what kind of person Ruan Mei is, just hearing about the methods that the imperial concubine used to deal with the concubines in the palace in the past is enough to scare them and make them dare not have any delusions.
However, during the banquet hall, the emperor lowered his gaze towards himself...
Just once, her deliberately calm heart was stirred up by huge waves.
Facing that handsome face, that tall figure, and his deep and dark eyes, no one could resist being moved.
She was moved.
Whose youth isn't youth? She was also a young woman in her twenties. Why did she choose to spend her youth alone, even in the cold and desolate state, in such a flourishing harem?
And why should I submit to those stupid women?
She is obviously better than them all and smarter than them all.
So, she broke her original plan and no longer hid behind Ruan Mei. She wanted to tell the emperor everything she had worked hard to do, to let him know that in the harem, the imperial concubine was not the only one who was smart and capable, but she was the same.
And now... things seemed to be happening as she expected.
Because she was not strict in her rule and used private punishment during the funeral of the late Queen, attacking herself and Fu'er, Ruan Mei was stripped of her title of concubine and became a concubine like herself.
This way, she wouldn't have to rely on others.
But, but...
Why do I still feel uneasy?
Could it be because of the imperial concubine's attitude towards him?
During the funeral of the late Empress, such a big incident happened, but the Imperial Concubine seemed very cold when dealing with her. It would be fine if she rewarded her. Or even if she was severely punished for showing her face in front of the Emperor - of course, severe punishment was the best, so that she could see the Emperor's attitude towards her.
That day, at the banquet hall, the emperor had already paid attention to himself. If the imperial concubine really punished himself severely, the emperor would have expressed his opinion.
However, everything that Shen Lianxiang expected did not happen.
The imperial concubine simply fined her one month's salary, which was nothing in the harem.
So even the emperor didn't say anything.
Did she, did she do it on purpose?
Could it be that she had already seen that I wanted to attract the emperor's attention and did this on purpose to prevent me from getting ahead?
If that's the case—
Chen Lianxiang clutched the corner of her clothes tightly and said secretly: It has come to this point. I have even lost my own umbrella of protection. How can I turn back?
