Seeing that Anguogong's wife came to him to ask about the whereabouts of her biological son, Anguogong was not surprised that she knew about it, and his face was full of malice and stabbed her heart:
"You've caused the entire prefecture to be implicated, and I've sent him to a branch of the family. Naturally, he's waiting to die in this prison."
Lady Anguo raised her scarred hands, her eyes filled with despair:
"I have done blood tests on all the males of the right age in the Nine Clans, but my son is not among them."
Duke Anguo laughed heartily: "I threw your son off the cliff just after he was born. It is his honor to be able to save Qingfeng from this disaster."
Upon hearing these heartbreaking words, Lady Anguo took up the jailer's sword and tried to stab Anguo, but was stopped by the secret guards.
"Madam, the Emperor sentenced him to death by slicing. Now you kill him and it would be a relief for him."
Then he helped Lady Anguo out. Lady Anguo's hair turned completely white in an instant. She thought of her poor son and wanted to find his body and light a perpetual lamp for him.
The case of the Duke of Anguo secretly harboring the prince for treason caused an uproar in the capital. On the day of the execution, the whole city watched, and every family was in a state of panic, fearing that they would bring bad luck to the emperor.
--
The Imperial Medical Service has trained ten female doctors, all of whom are the best in their respective regions. For this reason, the emperor has specially set up a female medical department under the Imperial Medical Service, and has been actively recruiting women with superb medical skills from all over the country.
Shang Xiaoyang was helping Dan Ruo take a walk when he heard Dan Ruo say that she might be about to give birth.
He hurriedly carried Danruo back to the delivery room that had been prepared long ago, and at the same time called all the doctors from the Imperial Hospital and the Women's Medical Bureau to wait for orders.
Seeing Shang Xiaoyang also in the delivery room, Madam Li tried to dissuade him, saying, "Your Majesty, a woman giving birth is filthy. Please wait outside."
Shang Xiaoyang shook his head firmly, "I have to stay with Ruo'er the whole time, otherwise she will get scared."
After hearing this, Mrs. Li didn't want to persuade him anymore, so she just pulled the curtain to prevent Shang Xiaoyang from seeing the birth scene.
Danruo himself has spiritual power, and this body is in excellent physical condition.
But this time she still felt a little uncomfortable. She felt like several children were scrambling to get out. She couldn't help but cry out. Shang Xiaoyang immediately put his arm to her mouth and said, "Bite it if it hurts."
In the end, Shang Xiaoyang's arm was left with messy bite marks, and he also welcomed his children.
The eldest princess and two princes had already come out, and six female doctors hurriedly took over the care of the three children.
Then the leading female doctor exclaimed:
"The queen is still pregnant. Hurry up and bring the prepared medicine to her to maintain her strength."
Finally, the little princess and the little prince came out, but Danruo had already fallen asleep due to exhaustion.
After sleeping for two days and two nights, it was his own spiritual power that repaired the damage to his body caused by childbirth.
Shang Xiaoyang was almost on the verge of collapse. Why wasn't the queen awake yet? The Imperial Hospital couldn't withstand the emperor's anger and had to push a female doctor forward.
Just when Shang Xiaoyang ordered the whole country to recruit miracle doctors again, Dan Ruo slowly woke up. Looking at the unshaven and tired-eyed savage in front of him, Dan Ruo once suspected that he had slept for several years before waking up.
Shang Xiaoyang was filled with joy at having regained what he had lost. "We will never have any more children. These five are enough for us."
Shang Xiaoyang asked a female doctor to carefully treat Danruo and forced her to stay in confinement for three months. Even though Danruo became more charming after giving birth, he suffered every day and refused to give in.
It was not until the hundred-day party for the children that Danruo returned to the public eye.
Several children were very thin when they were born, but after the joint efforts of the Imperial Hospital and the Women's Medical Bureau, they all became as healthy as normal babies after three months.
The court officials had originally seen that the empress was the only one favored, and they wanted to persuade the emperor to hold a beauty selection after the empress gave birth, using the excuse that she had few children.
I thought the queen would at most inherit her mother's genes and give birth to twins, a boy and a girl.
Unexpectedly, the queen gave birth to three princes and two princesses at once, and the princes and princesses did not show any signs of being weak or dying young. The excuse that the queen had few offspring was totally untenable.
Someone wanted to ask the empress dowager to recommend his daughter to enter the palace as before. Not only did the empress dowager not agree, but the worst thing was that he was dismissed from his official position by the emperor.
Now no one dared to think about entering the harem, but they just envied the only two concubines in the harem, Han Cairen and Wang Meiren.
The emperor is a man after all, and even the most beautiful woman will have moments of inconvenience. These two are not without opportunities.
Han Cairen thought so too.
After her house arrest was lifted, the entire palace was paying attention to Danruo's childbirth. The guard was as tight as an iron barrel, and she could not see the emperor at all.
This time, a eunuch from her palace passed by on his errand and saw the emperor in the imperial garden. He came back and told Han Cairen that he only wanted a reward.
Han Cairen couldn't contain herself. She packed up a little and hurried over. From afar, she saw Shang Xiaoyang hugging Dan Ruo and dancing with swords in the plum forest. The two looked at each other, and the surroundings were full of affection, forming a world of their own.
She recalled that Shang Xiaoyang had belittled her during Gong Yanyiwu's dance, but as long as Danruo held the sword, Shang Xiaoyang would not only guide her step by step, but also think she was the best.
Her tears were blown away by the wind and she left quietly. Staying would only make her more embarrassed.
But why? The emperor has three palaces and six courtyards, and she is also his concubine. As the queen, she cannot be jealous and favor one over the other. Why does Queen Danruo act like this? As long as she exists, the emperor will never think of his other concubines.
She was about to reach her palace, but she heard the envious voices of her palace maids inside.
"It would be great if I could serve in the Queen's palace. Given the current situation, the Emperor will definitely abolish the Three Palaces and Six Courtyards for the Queen in the future."
Although Han Cairen dealt with the palace maid, the anger in her heart grew stronger and stronger.
He turned and walked towards Concubine Wang's palace.
