After thinking about it, Concubine Shu decided to go to the Empress Dowager's palace.
After all, Concubine Shu had been in the palace for more than ten years, and the Empress Dowager had some affection for her after living with her for so long. Seeing that she had a lot on her mind and wanted to say something but didn't want to, the Empress Dowager asked her what was wrong.
Concubine Shu blushed and said, "I don't mean to meddle in other people's affairs, but I am really worried about the emperor's offspring.
I know that the sisters in the harem are unlucky and cannot give birth to a son or daughter for the emperor.
Now that the three younger sisters have entered the palace, I know there is hope that they can give birth to children.
Although the emperor has not opened any invitations these days, I heard from the eunuch in the imperial garden yesterday that the emperor often stays overnight at Concubine Su's place.
I think if the emperor treats all his concubines equally and does not monopolize Concubine Su, the harem will be able to have children faster.
I am the one who is being nosy. I just don't want the Empress Dowager to worry about the issue of offspring anymore, so I don't know whether I should tell you or not."
The Empress Dowager calmly sent Concubine Shu away, even though she thought the child from the Su family was good-looking and had a good temperament.
But as Concubine Shu said, if the emperor favors three people at the same time, he will conceive more children. Now that the emperor doesn't even have one child, she naturally doesn't mind having too many children.
The empress dowager sent someone to invite Gu Chengzuo, told him about the matter, and asked Gu Chengzuo and the other two to take turns.
As soon as Gu Chengzuo asked, he learned that Concubine Shu had found the Queen Mother. The Queen Mother said that she did not mind this matter. After all, he knew how much the Queen Mother had paid to have a child for her.
But since Concubine Shu is in charge of so many things, it seems she is still too idle.
The Empress Dowager is old this year, so let her take charge of the palace banquet on August 15th, and the Empress Dowager will just have to inspect it.
But he finally listened to the Queen Mother's words. He also wanted a child, so he turned over Jia Hui's card the next day.
Jia Hui didn't expect that Concubine Shu would be so helpful. It turned out that she did not follow the wrong master this time. She was afraid that there would be a bad smell, so she didn't eat that day. She lay in the emperor's side palace at night, full of anticipation.
Gu Chengzuo stepped into the side hall, smelled an unusual fragrance, felt something unusual in his body, and rushed out directly.
He quickly returned to his bedroom and closed the door. His lower body transformed into a wolf's. He hurriedly swallowed the detoxification pills he had prepared two days ago.
After being tricked by Rong Si last time, he asked the imperial physician to prepare an antidote pill in advance to prevent such a situation from happening again. He couldn't afford to fall into the same trap twice.
A quarter of an hour after drinking the medicine, the effect wore off and his body returned to normal.
He originally wanted to deal with Jia Hui immediately, but he wanted to know whether Lady Su would be sad because of his favor for Jia Hui, so he immediately went to Qingyi Palace in the dark as if he was familiar with the place.
The palace servants of Qingyi Palace originally thought that the emperor had turned over Jia Baolin's card tonight and would not come to Qingyi Palace. Unexpectedly, the emperor came after all, and it was their concubine Su who was favored.
Just as he was about to report it, he was stopped by Gu Chengzuo.
Gu Chengzuo saw that the candle in the room was still lit, and it seemed that she had not slept yet. He secretly rejoiced, wondering if she was sad and couldn't sleep because he favored another woman.
Through the window, I saw her writing and drawing at her desk.
He opened the door, and the person inside heard the sound and looked up at him, his round eyes full of surprise. He strode forward, picked up the painting on the table, and said that it had nothing to do with him, but it still had some relationship with him.
It was a wolf that fell into the water under the moonlight, and beside him was a faceless man with silver hair.
Gu Chengzuo pointed at the man, his tone filled with anger and grievance that he was not aware of:
"Who is this?"
The woman in front of him said tenderly with a nostalgic look, "He was the one from that night. It's a pity I didn't see what he looked like. This is how I imagined him. With a head full of silver hair, he had the rebelliousness and passion of a young man."
Gu Chengzuo felt bitter in his heart. The look and tone from Lady Su just now were completely different from when she was talking to him in person.
Moreover, Su Meiren imagined himself to be full of youthful vigor, but now he is 32 years old, and it is a stretch to call him a young man.
He will have to ask the imperial physician to study how to make him younger tomorrow.
Seeing Gu Chengzuo's puzzled expression, Dan Ruo spoke:
"Why is the emperor here? Isn't Jia Baolin favored tonight?"
Seeing that she was not upset at all, Gu Chengzuo felt very uncomfortable. Although he knew that the other person she liked was also him, his true identity was the one in front of him. He couldn't help but said sarcastically:
"Aren't you angry?"
Dan Ruo couldn't understand and laughed, "Why should I be angry? I already have a lover, and I'm just an insignificant beauty in the emperor's harem. How can I be angry because the emperor favors someone else?"
Gu Chengzuo snorted coldly. He only heard what she said. Danruo felt that she was just a little beauty, so she was not angry. It must be because she felt that her status was low.
Then let her get promoted so that she will be eligible.
But she is not pregnant yet, and directly promoting her to a noble concubine will not be able to stop the gossip. It is better to first confer her the title of the first of the second rank, the Zhaoyi among the nine concubines.
The next day, Jia Hui was banished to the cold palace because of her unauthorized use of banned drugs, which harmed the emperor's body.
She didn't know when she had used the banned drug, and kept crying out for injustice, but was shut up by Concubine Shu. The drug was secretly put into Jia Hui's hair oil by Concubine Shu, with the intention of helping her, but who would have thought that she was so useless.
Instead, the seductive Concubine Su was directly promoted to Zhaoyi.
