Chapter 25 Everyone's Plan
If it was so easy for the emperor to have children, then why did he only have three children over the years? One may be blessed with the ability to conceive, but not necessarily with the ability to give birth.
Concubine Yu's mood was in turmoil and her stomach felt a little uncomfortable, so she frowned.
Wen Qiu was shocked: "What's wrong with you, Madam?"
Concubine Yu felt a pain in her stomach and felt a little uneasy. She hadn't seen Xuanyuan Ling for a long time. Concubine Fang was suddenly pregnant. Xuanyuan Ling's smile at the banquet just now pierced her eyes. Now she felt even more aggrieved. She said, "Let's go get the imperial physician."
If we invite the imperial physician now, wouldn't the emperor know about it? Concubine Fang just got pregnant, isn't it obvious that the baby is in labor?
After all, Wen Qiu was still the head maidservant beside Concubine Yu. Not to mention that it would not sound good if this got out, the emperor had to be with the queen right now, and it would be bad to intercept him like this.
“My queen…”
"Go!" Concubine Yu glared at her and said, "I can't order you around anymore?"
Wen Qiu said: "I'm afraid the Queen's side..."
"Hmph." Concubine Yu said, "I'll invite the imperial physician. Whether or not the emperor can be kept alive is the Empress's business."
Wen Qiu saw that he couldn't persuade her, so he thought that the queen's health was more important and hurried to ask for the imperial physician.
As soon as Zhong Yugong asked the imperial physician for help, Xuanyuan Ling naturally got the news.
He had just arrived at Fengyi Palace and hadn't even had time to sit down when he received a letter saying that Concubine Yu of Zhongyu Palace had called for the imperial physician.
Xuanyuan Ling showed no expression on his face, but he was very unhappy in his heart. Not to mention that Concubine Fang had just become pregnant, Concubine Yu was not afraid of doing something that would openly slap the Queen in the face. It was indeed because he had indulged her too much in the past, which made her even more out of control.
The Queen said, "After all, Concubine Yu is pregnant, so Your Majesty should go and take a look."
"After all, the Queen is a sensible person." Xuanyuan Ling was not very happy to stay with the Queen.
The queen nodded and respectfully sent Xuanyuan Ling off. Hearing his words made her feel much better no matter how sad she was.
After Xuanyuan Ling left, the Queen said calmly: "This child of Concubine Fang came at the right time."
Isn't it time to come?
Whenever other people in the palace became pregnant, she could find an excuse to raise the child under her own lap. However, according to the rules, Concubine Fang would be promoted after giving birth. Concubine Fang was originally a Concubine and had the title Fang. If she was promoted to a higher rank, she would be able to raise the child under her own lap. Therefore, even if the Queen wanted Concubine Fang's baby, she could not have it.
But at the moment, Shen Qing has no children after all. If possible, the Queen still wants Shen Qing's child. After all, she is of low status and easy to control. There is no need to worry about the child after it is born. When he grows up, he will naturally know how to rely on her.
But Concubine Fang got pregnant first. If she gave birth to a son, she would definitely not be able to keep this man.
However, childbirth is a matter of life and death, and the pregnancy lasts ten months, so we can still wait a little longer.
Xuanyuan Ling felt that Concubine Yu was not really upset but was just trying to get in on the act. She was just looking for an excuse to leave Fengyi Palace and she actually had no real intention of going to Zhongyu Palace.
Xuanyuan Ling no longer wanted to indulge Concubine Yu: "Let's go back to Qianyuan Palace."
"Yes, I am waiting for the report from the imperial physician at Concubine Yu's place."
"Yes." Xuanyuan Ling waved his hand and started.
Zhao Hai sighed in his heart why Concubine Yu was still making trouble. It was really great. Don’t wait until the emperor really loses his patience. If you want to favor her by then, it will be impossible.
Xuanyuan Ling returned to Qianyuan Palace. After all, it was close to Fengyi Palace. Someone immediately reported to the Queen from both Qianyuan Palace and Zhongyu Palace.
The Queen said calmly: "You still don't know how to behave yourself. The Emperor is really displeased by this."
"I'm afraid Concubine Yu's favor has come to an end." Now that the punishment has begun, Concubine Yu will be less precious than before.
The Queen loved hearing this, but the Emperor clearly did not want to go to Zhongyu Palace, but he still left Fengyi Palace. He had already made it clear that he did not want to stay overnight. It was impossible for the Queen to look better. "The people at Concubine Fang's place should be arranged more strictly to prevent others from taking advantage of the situation. In the current situation, her baby should be kept for the time being and she should be carefully taken care of."
Jinzhi nodded: "I have already given the order. I will definitely not let anyone harm Concubine Fang in vain."
Chen Qing didn't know about the follow-up events until he woke up the next day. Chunhua and Fangyun focused on the fact that Concubine Yu asked the imperial physician Xuanyuan Ling to see her but he didn't.
It's okay for her to hear that, it's actually very normal.
Children who cry a lot get candy, but if they cry too much, they will become annoying.
After the Dragon Boat Festival, the weather was indeed getting hotter day by day. Fortunately, Xuanyuan Ling had promised in advance, so ice was used in Zhaohua Palace.
But Shen Qing is afraid of heat.
She was really afraid of heat. It was okay when the weather wasn't that hot, but when it was a little hot, Shen Qing would feel drowsy. Her sleep time was obviously much longer than before, and she was too lazy to move. It was best for her to stay in a room with ice and fan herself with a cool fan.
Shen Qing herself really couldn't help herself.
This place doesn't have air conditioning, not even an electric fan, so they have to rely on hand-cranked fans. Chen Qing couldn't bear to see Chunhua sweating profusely while fanning her: "Forget it, I'll fan myself."
Chunhua has been with Shen Qing for a long time now. She knows that this man is smart and thoughtful. He really loves his servants. He is different from other masters. He eats like a child. Seeing that she is so hot, she feels very distressed: "My dear, let me do it. It's tiring for you to fan yourself. It will be even hotter."
Chen Qing began to dislike the palace dress that was stuck to her body due to the summer heat and humidity.
This palace dress was cumbersome, and Shen Qing really didn't want to endure it anymore, so she took off her clothes until she was left with only a bellyband, which really made her feel much cooler.
Chunhua was shocked: "My dear, you can't do this. It's against the rules."
"Inside the house." Chen Qing knew the rules and knew that Chunhua was doing this for her own good, but she was too hot to bear, so she said softly, "Chunhua, just let me take off my clothes, and stop fanning me. It will tire you out. Let's close the gate of Zhaohua Palace and ask Xiao Quanzi to watch over the gate. If anyone comes, report back immediately."
Xuanyuan Ling was eavesdropping outside and thought that this little girl usually acted like a spoiled child when talking to him, but he didn't expect that she was talking in the same way to the palace maid who served her.
Moreover, they knew it was against the rules but still did it, and even asked the eunuch to guard the door?
It's a pity she could think of that.
