Chapter 363 I feel a little...disgusting!
What Bai Wutong covets is not only the things that the Queen Mother hides secretly, but also the other party's full support.
Once Zhang Chengyan passed away, with the Queen Mother stepping in, the ministers would do their best to assist the Crown Prince in ascending the throne out of consideration for her feelings.
The influence of the empress dowager in the previous dynasty cannot be underestimated. This is not only due to the once powerful Duke Zhenguo Mansion, but also due to the prestige she has accumulated over the years.
The Queen Mother was so surprised that her voice trembled unconsciously, "You...you are so confident in leaving the child to me to raise? Aren't you afraid that I will do something bad to the child?"
Bai Wutong shook his head gently, and said firmly, "Empress Dowager, the emperor imprisoned you here because you often disciplined him. As an emperor, he naturally couldn't stand it. But isn't everything you did for the sake of Darong Kingdom having an heir as soon as possible? So, you will never hurt Yunyang."
"It's amazing that you can see so clearly. If you are assured and the emperor agrees, then send the child over. You can arrange for the wet nurse and the people who take care of the child on a daily basis. I just want to see the child from time to time and have someone accompany him to relieve his boredom."
The older people get, the more they like hustle and bustle and the more they long to have children and grandchildren around them.
Bai Wutong stood up and bowed, preparing to leave.
Just as she reached the door, the Queen Mother suddenly spoke, "Zhao Fei, I have nothing else to ask for now, I just hope to enjoy my old age in peace and have my children by my side. If you can do that, why not let me stand by you?"
Bai Wutong turned around, a perfect smile bloomed on her face, "The Queen Mother really understands me. I swear on the lives of my four children that I will let you enjoy your old age and the blessings of your children and grandchildren, and I will not take Yunyang back to my side before he is ten years old. If I break my promise, all four children will die young."
"Okay! I feel relieved with your words!" After hearing this, the Queen Mother was completely relieved.
No mother would joke about her child's life, Bai Wutong will definitely keep her promise!
The Queen Mother smiled and watched her leave. She sighed, "The person I had the least hope for at the beginning is now not only the only one in the harem who is pregnant, but she has also climbed to the position of Imperial Concubine. I think the position of Queen will probably be hers in the end! It's a pity for Jin Weige. I thought she could make it to the end."
The nanny beside her was full of confusion and couldn't help asking, "My queen, what exactly does Concubine Zhao want to do?"
Now the Queen Mother is under confinement and is no longer able to intervene in the struggles in the harem.
Once the emperor knows about my actions, I'm afraid it will cause trouble again.
For the Queen Mother, if she wants to live a peaceful life, it is best not to do anything.
Otherwise, who knows when the emperor might get angry and actually kill his mother!
The Queen Mother shook her head. "I don't know what Concubine Zhao is planning. But I can see that she wants to gain my support. If that's the case, why not give it to her?"
Bai Wutong returned to the Yangxin Palace.
At this time, Zhang Chengyan had already heard the news that the two beauties were suffering from vomiting and diarrhea, and he immediately sent an imperial physician to treat them.
Seeing Bai Wutong coming late, he frowned slightly, "Why did you come back only now? How could something happen to the two of them suddenly?"
"Your Majesty, I am also confused." Bai Wutong looked concerned and said in an orderly manner, "But the Queen Mother guessed that it was caused by catching a cold. They have been placed in the Buddhist hall, sleeping on wooden boards with bedding, and eating cold rice and leftovers. Women are afraid of cold, not to mention that they were spoiled in the Turkic times and have never suffered such hardships. In addition, they are worried and anxious every day. The combination of multiple factors has led to such a serious illness."
Zhang Chengyan listened to these words and looked at them, "You have a unique insight. What you said is exactly the same as the imperial physician."
"How could I have such insight? These are the exact words of the Empress Dowager." Bai Wutong cleverly put the blame on the Empress Dowager. After all, the news did come from the Empress Dowager.
A trace of dissatisfaction flashed across Zhang Chengyan's face. "I asked the Queen Mother to look after them, but she almost tortured them to death!"
Bai Wutong stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, this cannot be entirely blamed on the Empress Dowager. She already hates the Turks, and you have been doting on these two beauties before, so she must be unhappy. Your Majesty, have you forgotten? When you wanted to favor me, the Empress Dowager also obstructed you in many ways. Her temperament and style of doing things have long been deeply rooted, how can she change easily?"
Zhang Chengyan felt that what she said made sense.
"Your Majesty, I think it's best not to leave them with the Queen Mother. The Queen Mother doesn't like them from the bottom of her heart, and she will definitely not take good care of them in the future. The weather is getting colder now, and if something happens to them at this critical moment, it will be troublesome."
In fact, Bai Wutong asked the two beauties to take medicine and pretend to be sick, not only to help them escape from the constraints of Yongshou Palace, but also to completely free them from the supervision of the empress dowager.
This way, there will be more opportunities to seduce the emperor.
Otherwise, Zhang Chengyan would not have gone to Yongshou Palace at all, so how could they have had the opportunity?
"Well, then let's not let them go to the Queen Mother for the time being." Zhang Chengyan looked annoyed. When he heard the news about the two Turkic beauties, the charming scenes of their previous interactions instantly emerged in his mind, and a warm current seemed to surge in his lower abdomen.
He hesitated for a moment, but still reached out his hand and held Bai Wutong's hand tightly, "Tonight...you stay with me."
Bai Wutong felt disgusted, and she pulled her hand back calmly, smiling apologetically, "Your Majesty, I want to accompany you, but I can't get away. Zhaoyang always sleeps restlessly at night, and wakes up crying and looking for me. If I'm not around, she will cry non-stop, and I'm worried that her throat will be damaged. What should I do then?"
Zhang Chengyan could only nod when he heard that it was about Zhaoyang. "Indeed, the child is more important. Don't work too hard. There are wet nurses and palace maids. Just tell them to do it."
"I understand, but I have been taking care of the child myself before. Zhaoyang has already recognized the child. If I let go now, I am afraid that the child will feel even less safe. So I am really worried."
Bai Wutong was afraid that Zhang Chengyan would continue to pester him, so he found an excuse and left in a hurry.
Now that she has enough children, she really doesn’t want to have close contact with each other anymore. She finds it a bit... disgusting!
If these two Turkic beauties had not used that strange incense and Zhang Chengyan had not noticed the problem, what would he have done?
I'm afraid he would favor her from time to time, and make excuses implicitly, saying that the Turkic people should not be neglected.
In the final analysis, it's just lust at first sight!
