Chapter 34: The Angry Emperor with No Heir x The Cannon Fodder Female Match and the Concubine's Daughter 34

Mo Qiong's face was twisted with anger, and he gritted his teeth but there was nothing he could do.

He glared at Tutor Li fiercely, then followed the Prime Minister out of the Tutor's mansion.

Master Li heaved a sigh of relief, and the arrogance he had just displayed suddenly disappeared.

But for Li Huaijiang he had to challenge the prime minister. After all, Zi Xin was Li Huaijiang's only hope, and he was counting on Zi Xin to give birth to Li Huaijiang's flesh and blood.

After five months, Aunt Qiao's belly grew as big as a balloon.

The Queen Mother is now living in Kunning Palace, and will move back after Cining Palace is rebuilt.

He looked at Aunt Qiao's belly lovingly and said, "Looking at the shape of Aunt Qiao's belly, it must be a good grandson."

Aunt Qiao smiled and said, "Could it be that the Queen Mother doesn't like her because she's a little princess?"

The Queen Mother was worried for a moment, patted Aunt Qiao's hand and said, "When no one is around, please call me mother. I like to hear you call me mother."

"Although I like the little princess, given the emperor's current situation, the only way to solve the problem is for Auntie to give birth to a little prince."

Aunt Qiao lowered her eyes. She knew the Queen Mother's worry. She simply thought that she was blessed by the Buddha for being pregnant once and never thought that she would be pregnant again in the future.

"Don't worry, mother. It will definitely be a little prince. In the future, mother will have many, many royal grandchildren to take care of her."

The Queen Mother wiped the corners of her eyes that were full of moisture, smiled with satisfaction and said, "Okay, okay, I believe in you, Auntie."

Aunt Liu helplessly handed the Queen Mother a handkerchief and said, "Queen Mother, this is a good thing. Why are you still crying?"

The Queen Mother shook her head and said with a smile, "I am very happy. Now I can see my aunt every day when I wake up. When I see her belly, I feel happy."

"Hahaha, what are mother and beloved talking about? They look so happy."

Mo Liyuan arrived before he spoke, and his cheerful voice made Jin Jin Qiao and the Queen Mother look at each other.

Qiao Jinjin stood up while holding her belly and said to Mo Liyuan who had just walked in, "Why did the emperor come back so early today?"

Mo Liyuan quickly reached out to support Aunt Qiao, and the expression on his face showed that he was very happy.

"The Regent of Tianqi is going back to Tianqi. He should be leaving the day after tomorrow."

"Huh?" Qiao Jinjin tilted her head in confusion. "Didn't you plan to stay in Daming for two months? Why are you leaving so early?"

Mo Liyuan grinned and said, "For some reason, Leng Gongyun has nightmares every day. He has become extremely thin. The doctor accompanying Tianqi said that if he continues like this, the Regent King may not be able to bear it."

"Also, we have already discovered the secret passage. Leng Gongyun may feel that he can no longer proceed with the attack."

"Although he was unwilling, he had no choice now and could only return to Tianqi to recuperate."

Aunt Qiao stuck out her tongue. It was so convenient that this prophecy came true.

I don’t know if Leng Gongyun can bear it and really be tortured to death by this nightmare.

Ever since Leng Gongyun returned to Tianqi, the entire court has been quiet for a long time. After all, everyone at the palace banquet saw Aunt Qiao's belly.

Mo Liyuan knew what they were planning. They were definitely praying that his aunt would give birth to a princess.

There are already several midwives living in Kunning Palace, all of whom were personally investigated and selected by Mo Liyuan.

The midwife's family has been controlled. If anyone dares to do anything, then the midwife's family will definitely be punished.

Mo Liyuan didn't want to do this, but if he didn't, there might be someone who would want to bribe the midwife.

Yanxi Palace

Concubine Yugui and Concubine Shu sat on chairs with solemn expressions. There was a piece of broken porcelain on the ground, which was broken by Concubine Yugui when she got angry just now.

"Damn it, what should I do now? Am I going to watch her give birth to a prince? And then I can take the throne of empress just because of my son?"

The hatred in Concubine Yu Gui's heart could be heard from her gnashing teeth as she spoke.

Concubine Shu frowned and said, "It won't work to buy off the midwife, so let's start from somewhere else."

Concubine Yu glanced at her and said, "Hmph, somewhere else? It's impossible for anyone to get into Kunning Palace right now. Tell me how to start."

Concubine Shu narrowed her eyes and said, "Water"

"Water is indispensable for production, so we start from the water source"

Concubine Yu Gui pursed her lips, thought for a moment and said, "Then we have to think of a way to find a medicine that can only harm the parturient and not harm ordinary people."

As the due date drew closer, the atmosphere in Kunning Palace became increasingly tense.

Whether it was the servants or the empress dowager and the emperor, they were all worried every day.

Since Mo Liyuan ascended the throne, no concubine has ever given birth.

Aunt Qiao has become much more plump, but the Queen Mother and Mo Liyuan have become thinner.

No matter how Aunt Qiao tried to persuade them, the two of them still couldn't eat or sleep well, for fear that something might happen to Aunt Qiao.

Finally, that night, Aunt Qiao, who had just finished dinner, took action.

Aunt Qiao was having her dinner normally. Mo Liyuan sat beside her and picked up food for her until she really couldn't eat any more.

"Your Majesty, I really can't eat any more."

"Sitting is really uncomfortable, I asked Madam Liu to help me move around."

The Queen Mother put down her chopsticks and frowned worriedly, "Auntie, please go slower."

"Madame Liu, take good care of Concubine Yuan"

Aunt Qiao wiped the corner of her mouth and stood up with the help of Aunt Liu. But she felt her underwear was wet as soon as she stood up.

She was startled and slowly lifted the hem of her skirt.

Aunt Liu stood by and saw everything. She exclaimed, "Oh my, the queen's water broke!"

This frightened the Queen Mother and Mo Liyuan.

Mo Liyuan stood up without any courtesy and shouted towards the door, "Call the midwife and the imperial physician!"

After shouting, he quickly turned around and supported Aunt Qiao, and said in a trembling voice, "My beloved, how are you? Does it hurt?"

Aunt Qiao shook her head and said soothingly, "It doesn't hurt."

"Empress Dowager, Your Majesty, I'll help Your Majesty back to the delivery room." Nanny Liu was very nervous. After all, this was the first child in the palace, and he was a child who was born safely under her daily careful care.

The Queen Mother and Mo Liyuan were stopped outside the delivery room, and Mo Liyuan paced back and forth in a panic.

The Queen Mother was dizzy from his spinning and she scolded him, "Your Majesty, please stop spinning! You are making me dizzy."

Mo Liyuan pursed his thin lips tightly, and the creases between his brows became more obvious.

"Mother, my aunt will be fine, right?"

"Your Majesty!" The Queen Mother was really angry this time, and said in a sharp voice, "Can't you think of something positive? My aunt took good care of herself during her pregnancy, how could there be any problem?"

"The most urgent task now is to protect Kunning Palace. Now is a critical time for production. Don't let those with ulterior motives take advantage of the situation."

Mo Liyuan turned around and sat on the chair, pinching his brows and saying, "I have already given the order. Now not even an ant can get into Kunning Palace. The things that Auntie takes into her mouth are strictly checked by Imperial Doctor Wen."
