Concubine Tang also reacted immediately and a happy smile appeared on her face.
Last month, on the anniversary of Empress Zhaosheng's death, the emperor paid tribute to his biological mother in Changle Palace and drank alcohol.
When Concubine Tang received the news, she sneaked into Changle Palace, hoping to make it a fait accompli. She almost succeeded, but was thrown out by the emperor who had just woken up.
Although the matter was suppressed by the Grand Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager, many people knew about Concubine Tang's embarrassing incident.
That same night, Concubine Tang was filled with shame and indignation, feeling that even the emperor, a noble lady, looked down upon her naked body and threw her out of Changle Palace in public, completely humiliating her.
So Concubine Tang was cuckolding the emperor.
The original owner also diagnosed that Concubine Tang was pregnant, and then Emperor Daoyuan ruthlessly exposed Concubine Tang's pregnancy.
The original owner was enraged and fled the palace, but was shot to death by thousands of arrows from the Tang family's assassins.
The original owner was unwilling to accept this, as she had not yet discovered the cause of the family's annihilation and sought revenge.
The Shenyue Sect trained the original owner since childhood and arranged for him to enter the palace to assassinate the emperor. As long as the original owner succeeded in the mission, they would tell him the truth about the extermination of the Bei family.
The original owner died unwillingly.
The Bei family was once a high-ranking official of the Langya Kingdom in the northwest, but was impeached for crimes such as treason and collaborating with the enemy.
Bei’s grandfather died tragically, and all the more than 100 members of the Bei family were wiped out.
The young original owner was sent out by a loyal servant, met the leader of the Shenyue Sect, and became the Holy Maiden of the Shenyue Sect.
The original owner suspected the late emperor and the Empress Dowager.
Because the late emperor was easily deceived and only listened to what he heard.
When he was still the crown prince, he was deposed by Taizu.
But Taizu died unexpectedly while on tour.
After the death of Emperor Taizu, the Empress Dowager united with the ministers who supported the legitimate bloodline to help her son ascend to the throne and killed many opponents.
The late emperor could never escape the control of the Empress Dowager throughout his life, and the mother and son often quarreled.
The late emperor had been bedridden for several years, and the princes were fighting fiercely for the throne, so the Empress Dowager had always been the regent.
After the death of the previous emperor, the Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager did not expect that the princes would kill each other.
The Bei family was a high-ranking official at that time, and had always been tried by the Tang family to win them over, but they refused.
Moreover, after the Bei family, it was indeed the Tang family who succeeded the Bei family and became the frontier officials.
At this time, in Shoukang Palace, the concubines congratulated the Empress Dowager and Concubine Tang.
The Empress Dowager did not appear in her own Ci'an Palace.
Since her son's death, the empress dowager has locked herself in the small Buddhist temple and rarely comes out.
"Come here, let the Goddess of Childbirth live in my side hall."
The Grand Empress Dowager said to Bei Lingyao, "I'll have to trouble the Goddess of Childbirth for Concubine Tang's pregnancy this time."
Bei Lingyao agreed and left with the palace maid.
She was thinking about how she could get close to Emperor Dao Yuan.
How to stay in the palace after Emperor Daoyuan exposes Concubine Tang.
If I leave the palace, it will be difficult to get close to Emperor Daoyuan again.
Shoukang Palace
As soon as the concubines left, Concubine Tang said to the Grand Empress Dowager, "Grandma, Your Majesty..."
"This is a happy event. I have already told the emperor."
Concubine Tang's face turned pale, "But..."
"No buts, this is the emperor's child."
The Grand Empress Dowager looked at her niece with murderous intent, "I have already dealt with that guard. No one will know about this."
"But what if the Emperor doesn't recognize it?"
"How could the Emperor deny it? He was drunk and unconscious, how could he know whether he favored you or not?"
The Empress Dowager was very dissatisfied with the Emperor's disobedient grandson.
Especially when the emperor threw Concubine Tang out of Changle Palace, he simply trampled on the face of the Tang family.
So when Concubine Tang was having an affair, even though the Empress Dowager knew about it, she helped to conceal it and even dealt with the guards afterwards.
But the Empress Dowager didn't know that Emperor Daoyuan was even more ruthless than her.
Hall of Mental Cultivation
Emperor Daoyuan Dongfang Xiuzhen sat cross-legged with his eyes closed in meditation.
There was incense lit in the room, and it was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.
At this time, no one dared to come in and disturb Emperor Daoyuan's meditation.
"emperor"
A hurried voice broke the silence.
Emperor Daoyuan opened his eyes, which were as calm as an ancient well, as if no matter how big the problem was, it could not disturb his mind.
"Your Majesty, Concubine Tang is pregnant. It was said that it was the night in Changle Palace."
"Step Back"
"I obey your command."
Emperor Daoyuan stood up from his cushion, took out a box of silver needles and started prickling his body with them, then swallowed a pill.
At this time, the news that Concubine Tang was pregnant quickly spread throughout the palace.
The concubines were extremely envious and jealous.
Emperor Daoyuan had never favored them, and Concubine Tang was the same as them in the past.
However, they did not expect that Concubine Tang took the opportunity to sneak into Changle Palace and succeeded.
Some people are disgusted by Concubine Tang's behavior.
But Emperor Daoyuan had no children, so if Concubine Tang gave birth to this baby safely, she would undoubtedly be the biggest winner.
The Tang family was overjoyed.
Since Taizu founded the country, the Tang family has produced two empresses and empress dowagers. If Concubine Tang has a son, she will be the third empress and empress dowager. How can the Tang family not be happy?
However, everyone waited and waited, but did not see any response from Emperor Daoyuan.
Even people sent from Shoukang Palace were sent away before they could even see Emperor Daoyuan.
The Empress Dowager was dissatisfied.
In Qingyun Palace, Concubine Tang was even more gritting her teeth in anger.
As the most precious daughter of the Tang family, she has been doted on since childhood. Even princesses may not be as noble as her.
In the past, Emperor Daoyuan, an abandoned son of the royal family, would never have caught the eye of Concubine Tang.
If Emperor Daoyuan had not been lucky enough to become the emperor, how could Concubine Tang have ever treated herself so badly?
However, after entering the palace for a few years, she encountered many setbacks and suffered a lot of embarrassment from Emperor Daoyuan.
Now that she is pregnant, Emperor Daoyuan doesn't care, doesn't show up, and doesn't show any expression.
Completely ignored.
At this moment, Concubine Tang touched her belly and said to the palace maid, "Tell my great-aunt that I have a stomachache."
Qingyun Palace is close to the Empress Dowager's Shoukang Palace, so if Concubine Tang feels unwell, she can just go to Bei Lingyao.
However, Concubine Tang was obviously not interested in Bei Lingyao.
In Shoukang Palace, the Empress Dowager also knew that Concubine Tang was unhappy because Emperor Daoyuan did not express his feelings.
The Empress Dowager was dissatisfied. Since Concubine Tang was pregnant with a prince, there was no need to keep the disobedient grandson.
"Let the emperor come to see me."
As soon as the Empress Dowager spoke, someone went to invite Emperor Daoyuan.
Emperor Daoyuan did not come, and the palace servants of Yangdian Palace returned to Shoukang Palace on the pretext of practicing.
The Empress Dowager was furious and brought people over personally.
This unfilial grandson, if any of the other princes of the late emperor were still alive, she would not bring him back to the palace to be the emperor.
"The Empress Dowager has arrived!"
Emperor Daoyuan was dressed in a casual white robe, looking more like a Taoist than an emperor. He saluted and asked, "Why is the Imperial Grandmother here?"
"If I hadn't come, I wouldn't have been able to invite you, the emperor."
The Empress Dowager glared sharply at this debonair grandson and slammed her dragon-headed cane on the ground. "How long are you going to keep being angry with me?"
