Chapter 216 Concubine Shu's mentality began to collapse
The eldest prince glared at them angrily. He wanted to say something, but when he thought of his father's words and saw that the wet nurse and others in front of him seemed a little different from before, he finally didn't dare to make a fuss anymore and followed them back reluctantly.
Nanny Yu and the others staggered and were in a daze like wandering souls. When they returned to Jingyuan Palace, they could no longer hold on. Nanny Yu stumbled and fell to the ground, and the others were also in a state of dismay.
The eldest prince only noticed them then. He looked at this one, then that one. Why did their expressions all look so wrong? The child was frightened and burst into tears.
The other palace maids and eunuchs in Jingyuan Palace were shocked when they saw this.
"Your Highness, please don't cry! Your Highness, please don't cry!"
"Madam Yu, please comfort His Highness!"
"What's going on? What on earth happened?"
"Hurry, hurry and report to the Concubine Shu!"
“Yes, yes!”
Everyone was in chaos. The eldest prince was crying like this, and Nanny Yu, who was the eldest prince's wet nurse, was in a state of disarray. Everyone was horrified. No one knew what to do, let alone take responsibility. At this time, the sooner they reported to the master, the safer it would be.
Therefore, this statement was unanimously agreed by everyone.
"stop!"
The distraught Nanny Yu somehow mustered the strength from somewhere and shouted at the eunuch who was running out.
"No one is allowed to disturb the Concubine Shu! Everyone, come back here!"
"But......"
"No buts! Come back to me!"
She was afraid that they wouldn't listen, and if something went wrong in the future, wouldn't her crime be even greater? Nanny Yu shouted, "This is the Emperor's order!"
The unsuspecting palace maids and eunuchs were shocked: "The Emperor's order? How could it be mixed up with the Emperor's order?"
But these words really convinced them, and no one dared to mention reporting to Concubine Shu again.
Even though everyone was filled with doubts, they could tell something bad might have happened today. Their hearts were pounding, and they felt uneasy for no reason...
Someone immediately helped Nanny Yu and the others up. Nanny Yu suppressed her fear and anxiety, and comforted the eldest prince with kind words. She finally managed to pull him into the palace...
In the Paiyun Hall, no one knew what kind of thrilling accident had occurred in the Imperial Garden. They were still laughing and chatting happily, chatting and joking non-stop.
Several old princesses and princesses of the royal family mentioned the little prince while chatting and joking, and smiled and said that they wanted to meet the little prince, but Xu Lanshan declined them all with a smile.
Concubine Shu happened to come in and chuckled when she heard this: "Noble Concubine Chen is too stingy. The palace hasn't had a new baby for many years. Now that the little prince is finally born, it is a great joy for the palace. The Emperor, the Empress, and everyone else are all very happy and want to see the little prince and congratulate him. But Noble Concubine Chen is reluctant and refuses to agree! Can it be said that if everyone takes a look at him, the little prince will lose a piece of meat? Hahahaha!"
She seemed to be joking, but whether there was any malice in her words was a matter of opinion.
When Concubine Shu said this, many noble ladies covered their mouths and laughed, and all of them joined in the joke.
This is the disadvantage of not having any connections with relatives from your mother's side. No one will speak for Xu Lanshan.
If she did anything wrong, the crowd would rush over and tear her to pieces.
Xu Lanshan smiled, glanced at Concubine Shu, and said to everyone with a half-hearted smile: "Concubine Shu, you have misunderstood me. I am not afraid of you laughing at me. It was only after I became a mother that I realized that a mother is really worried about her own flesh and blood all the time. Today, when entertaining you all, I was afraid that I would not have time to take care of the little prince the whole time. Every time I thought about it, I felt uneasy and could not put it into practice. That's why I asked for the grace of the Emperor and the Empress not to bring the child. For this, the Emperor even laughed at me. Everyone, please don't laugh at me!"
After she said that, what else could they do? They could only smile and say something.
When Concubine Shu heard her mention the emperor, she knew that she was deliberately showing off in front of her!
After this back-and-forth exchange, it was obvious that she was losing. Jealousy flared up in her, and she sneered, "What Noble Concubine Chen said is even more inappropriate. With so many people in the palace, can't they take good care of the little prince? Why does Noble Concubine Chen have to do everything herself? Could it be that she's worried that someone here might have bad intentions and harm the little prince?"
Xu Lanshan's eyes were slightly cold: "What does this mean, Concubine Shu?"
Concubine Shu sneered: "It's nothing, I'm just curious, so I said it!"
Xu Lanshan looked at Concubine Shu. Perhaps none of the concubines in the palace were truly indifferent. Concubine Shu had always been dignified and reserved, and would not easily say anything. It was only because she had the eldest prince to rely on, and he believed that she was a safe bet, so she just watched others fight with cold eyes.
Maybe he even enjoys it in his heart.
But now, her fishing boat was shaking and no longer stable. She was in a state of confusion, and her temper began to show some sharpness and harshness.
What is the essential difference between it and the Fu family?
"Today is the little prince's full moon banquet. Your Majesty and the Empress have been so kind as to hold such a joyful banquet. I do not wish to hear any more unpleasant or unlucky words. Your Majesty, please respect yourself. Otherwise, I will report this to the Emperor later."
Concubine Shu glared at her angrily, "Noble Concubine Chen is so arrogant! Are you trying to teach me a lesson? I wonder if the Emperor knows that Noble Concubine Chen has such a temper?"
Once he gained power, his arrogant nature finally emerged. He is a real villain! He is not worthy of being on the stage.
Xu Lanshan: "Shufei is a veteran in the palace. How could I dare to lecture her? It's just that I'm a new mother and I really can't stand hearing any negative words about my child. I wonder if someone said something like that at the Crown Prince's full moon banquet, would the Empress Shufei welcome them with a smile and applaud, even praising them for being well said?"
"you!"
Everyone looked at each other, not daring to speak. They lowered their heads and pricked up their ears to listen. They were all shocked. This imperial concubine was really so majestic... Favored concubines were different after all. Her momentum and expression were not inferior to those noble ladies from famous families.
Then again, what Concubine Shu said was indeed a bit too much...
Xu Lanshan smiled faintly and added, "The Emperor has always been very clear about what kind of person I am. Concubine Shu doesn't need to worry about it!"
"snort!"
Concubine Shu was furious and obviously didn't believe what Xu Lanshan said at all. If the emperor knew she was such a person, he would not even look at her.
