"Your Majesty, it's still fake this time." Zhenzhu hurried in to report.
Concubine Shu sneered, "Ning Wanyin is really cunning..."
But no matter how cunning you are...
What can I do?
You can only check whether people and objects are carrying poisons...
But she was indeed forced by Ning Wanyin to make a big move.
One of the two midwives who delivered the baby was hers. The midwife naturally couldn't find out, she just had to do something during the delivery...
The child could be suffocated to death in there.
Then take out the dead fetus.
She didn't want to use this trick easily, because it was very difficult to plant a nail under Helian Qi's nose.
This midwife can be kept around to harm Ning Wanyin in the future.
She has placed a lot of people in Changchun Palace.
but……
Ning Wanyin's search method was to arrest every palace maid in Changchun Palace who moved...
The only option is to use a midwife.
"Ning Wanyin and Shunpin both think everything is fine." Zhenzhu flattered, "Ning Wanyin is no match for you!"
Concubine Shu said calmly, "She is quite amazing..."
If you are dealing with others, you don't need to do this step at all.
Among all the concubines in the harem, including Empress Dowager Xue, in Concubine Shu's eyes, Ning Wanyin is the most difficult one to deal with.
"Your Majesty, you are still the best!" Pearl flattered.
Concubine Shu pursed her lips slightly and looked at the Buddha statue in front of her, feeling relaxed and happy.
…
In early winter, the emperor suddenly summoned Shunpin.
On the way to Ganxin Palace, Shunpin was about to give birth again...
"Hurry, carry the queen back to Changchun Palace." Chunque said anxiously.
But Ning Wanyin, who was accompanying them, objected, "It's too far. I'm afraid we won't be able to make it on the way. The nearest place is Jingxi Palace... Carry Concubine Shun to Jingxi Palace!"
"Are you crazy..." Chunque widened her eyes and lowered her voice, "The Concubine Shu must be the one who doesn't want our Concubine to have a child..."
Ning Wanyin looked straight at Shunpin, "Your Majesty has ordered that I will be responsible for the delivery of Madam Shunpin. Anyone who disobeys the order will be deemed to be disobeying the order."
Once these words came out...
How could the palace maid dare to hesitate?
They carried Shunpin to Jingxi Palace.
Shufei, who was taking a nap in Jingxi Palace, was stunned when she saw Ning Wanyin carrying Shunpin into her palace.
"Concubine Ning, what are you doing?" Concubine Shu was shocked.
Ning Wanyin bowed and saluted, "Empress Shun is about to give birth, and it's too far to go back to Changchun Palace. At the moment, only Jingxi Palace can be used. I think that Empress Shufei has given birth to a prince, and the people in Empress Shufei's palace are all experienced and more useful than those in Changchun Palace."
"As for Concubine Shun's delivery, please help take care of her, Concubine Shu!"
"The Concubine Shu has always been virtuous and has taken good care of the sisters. She wouldn't drive Concubine Shun out to suffer the cold in this heavy snow, right?"
Concubine Shu was in a trance for a moment, then she came to her senses and stared at Ning Wanyin, "I'm afraid my people can't take care of Concubine Shun..."
"You have given birth, so how can your palace maids not be able to do it? It's too late to go to Changchun Palace to call for help now... These eunuchs who carry the sedan chair when traveling are clumsy, how can they serve Concubine Shun..." Ning Wanyin interrupted.
After a pause, she reminded him word by word, "Your Majesty has ordered me to be responsible for Shunpin's childbirth. Anyone who disobeys the order will be punished for disobeying the order."
Disobey the order? Do you understand?
Ning Wanyin wants Shunpin to give birth to a baby in Shufei's palace today!
If something happens to the royal heir...
Just put the blame on Concubine Shu, saying it was Concubine Shu who was responsible.
Concubine Shu gave Ning Wanyin a deep look...
Unexpectedly, she actually had this trick.
Concubine Shu is not a fool.
Is Shunpin's child worth her dying together with him?
Whether this child can be raised after being born is another matter.
In comparison...
Concubine Shu will definitely choose Concubine Bao Shun to give birth to a child.
"Since it is an unfortunate day today, how can I just sit back and watch? Zhenzhu, why don't you go up and help..." the Concubine Shu ordered.
The stunned Zhenzhu finally reacted and arranged for someone to carry Shunpin to lie on the couch.
The imperial physician and midwife were sent for immediately.
Soon they all rushed over.
Ning Wanyin sent someone to ask His Majesty to inform him that Shunpin had given birth in Jingxi Palace. Although the emperor deliberately cooperated with her in this game, he still had to go through the process.
…
"Master, Concubine Shun is about to give birth. His Majesty and all the concubines have rushed there, and you should go and see her as well." Nanny Ping reminded.
Concubine Zhuang was imprisoned for two months and was just released from house arrest a few days ago.
Hearing this, he was surprised and said, "Is she really going to give birth? She has given birth three times. Is Ning Wanyin cheating again?"
"It's real this time! His Majesty has already gone." Nanny Ping said affirmatively.
Concubine Zhuang nodded slightly, "Then let's go to Changchun Palace."
"Shunpin is not in Changchun Palace. She is giving birth in Jingxi Palace." said Nanny Ping.
Concubine Zhuang looked confused. "Why did she move to Jingxi Palace? Under Concubine Shu's command, can the child be born?"
"It's in the palace of Concubine Shu. Concubine Shu has to take care of things." Nanny Ping said with emotion.
Concubine Ning's methods are so powerful that Concubine Shun is destined to give birth smoothly this time.
…
When the concubines arrived at Jingxi Palace, they all had different expressions.
Who would have thought that Shunpin would give birth to a child here?
The emperor sat in the main seat with a gloomy face. Concubine Shu accompanied him with a virtuous and generous look, but Ning Wanyin was not there.
She is guarding in the inner hall...
For the last step, although she bet that Concubine Shu would not dare to take action, she still supervised it herself.
Shunpin's delivery this time was considered smooth...
About an hour later, the midwife held the newborn baby and said happily, "Congratulations, Shunpin, you gave birth to a princess. Both mother and daughter are safe!"
After hearing these words, Shunpin, who was lying on the bed with all her strength, felt a little disappointed.
…
Ning Wanyin came out with the midwife to announce the good news.
"Congratulations, Your Majesty. Concubine Shun has given birth to a princess. Both mother and daughter are safe." The midwife congratulated.
Although Helian Qi wanted a prince more, he did not dislike a daughter. He had few children, so he liked both princesses and princes.
"Very good, you did a great job, there is a reward!" Helian Qilong was very pleased.
Everyone bowed, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your reward."
Concubine Shu was a little surprised. She was actually a princess! If she had known it was a princess, why would she have gone to such great lengths?
But she was completely relieved.
Shunpin was no longer a threat to her.
"It is thanks to you, Concubine Shu, that Shunpin was able to give birth smoothly. Come here, reward Concubine Shu with a statue of Guanyin, the Goddess of Childbirth." Helian Qi ordered.
Concubine Shu had put her mind at ease, and bowed with a gentle smile, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace and reward."
Helian Qi looked at Ning Wanyin again, "Concubine Ning has worked hard these days. Pass on my oral order, Concubine Ning is virtuous and wise, and has made great contributions in taking care of Concubine Shun, so she will be promoted to Zhaoyi."
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace." Ning Wanyin bowed to express her gratitude.
"From now on, all matters concerning the six palaces will be jointly managed by Concubine Shu and Concubine Ning." Helian Qi continued.
The smile on Concubine Shu's face froze.
This time, the emperor really gave her the power to assist in managing the six palaces.
