Chapter 756: Changing Dragons and Phoenixes
The queen thought that now the house was full of her people, and she had also given a death order by her, and she must give birth to Lin'er in order for them to live. So, everything will be foolproof. She just likes the feeling now, it's been a long time since she's seen the eldest princess like this, but she wants to force a smile in front of her, pretending not to care.
Sure enough, after just standing for a while, the eldest princess was a little careless, said goodbye to her, and still returned to the queen mother. The queen mother was so happy that the two of them were frustrated together, and she didn't keep it, but just watched her leave with a smile. But how did she know that the bustle in the house had already deviated from what she thought. The midwife, who was carefully selected by her thousands of times, noticed that something was wrong from the beginning of the delivery of Concubine Hui. Concubine Fei's belly didn't feel right, more like a problematic fetus.
At this time, the eldest princess had already sat on her mother's favorite pear chair, and looked at the queen mother with some incomprehension, "The queen mother has always disliked the stubborn nature of the concubine, and she has always been in cahoots with the queen, this time, since it is Lin'er, why should the queen mother come up with a way to help her cover it up like this." ”
The Queen Mother sat on the chaise longue and sipped her tea, "Her bright appearance is very open in the eyes of the emperor, but she is very ignorant, and it is very difficult to accept, since she can't be scared directly, she should be given more, the phantom of the night will be confused sooner or later." After speaking, he gave the grandmother next to him a look, and the grandmother followed the queen mother and told the eldest princess about the details that the eldest princess had not talked about when she came for the first time. It turned out that the queen mother had already bought the imperial doctor with Concubine Hui, and drugged the fetus in her womb a little bit to make a restless fetus, and then asked the midwife who went in today to prepare a new baby, which is actually the emperor's son, but the mother is humble and has no one to take care of the birth, and she was only born an hour earlier than Concubine Hui.
The eldest princess wondered, "Does the mother mean to replace the previous waste fetus with this healthy baby?" But at this time, there are no less than 20 people in the house, and the queen mother is difficult to buy, and they are all bought one by one. ”
The grandmother was smiling happily here, and seeing that the eldest princess couldn't wait, she hurriedly offered the essence of the point. It's just because, at the beginning, the queen gave a death order, saying that it was necessary to ensure the smooth birth of Concubine Yuan, otherwise none of them would be spared. These people have always known the ruthlessness of the queen, but they are like the emperor and the queen mother, and they are guaranteed, so they dare not have the slightest slackness.
But it has long been a fact that Concubine Hui's Lin'er has died, and no matter how skillful she is, it is difficult to protect the fetus. The person who bought the queen mother will bring in another healthy prince at this time to explain the stakes to everyone, if you recognize this prince as Concubine Hui herself, not only Concubine Hui can also regain the emperor's favor, and everyone in the house who is about to be buried with the prince will also live well. In other words, everyone in the room knows that it is the trend of the times and has to be done.
Seeing this, Concubine Hui knew that she was in danger, and if she didn't agree to everyone's request, then in order to survive, they might still keep this child, but instead said that the life of an adult was not guaranteed.
The eldest princess listened to it and praised, "This method is really wonderful, but how could Concubine Hui be willing to raise a child who is not her own." Will she reveal all this matter to the emperor when she is safe?"
The Empress Dowager smiled lightly, "Concubine Hui will know later that she has no chance to regain Lin'er, so even if she knows that she will be forever restrained by me because of the prince she holds in her hand, she will be happy to do so." ”
In the delivery room, Concubine Hui fainted directly when she heard the midwife trembling and saying that the prince was out of breath. When she woke up again, she found a soft and glutinous little baby beside her, waving her arms and moving non-stop.
She turned back to look at the others in the room. The men fell to their knees with a thud. She seemed to understand something. Rapid gasping for breath.
There was a period of panic in the middle mailbox that she didn't ask about the origin of the doll, but immediately she thought that what should not be asked, what you know, the fewer people the better, and the fewer people who know, the better.
But even though they saw that she was getting more and more difficult, they still knelt on the ground and insisted on begging her to agree. or he would not get up, nor would he save her.
Her stubbornness was shattered. He nodded before fainting again.
When she woke up again, the emperor was watching her by her bedside, and when he saw that she was about to get up after waking up and finding him, he immediately stopped her from saying hello with his hand.
Then she heard a baby screaming for a feed. It turned out that as soon as the emperor saw her wake up, he immediately gestured for the prince to hug him.
Her gaze crossed the emperor's hand to the baby who had been carried. I just felt that the delicate cry was unexpectedly piercing. She simply hated the existence of that child. But she couldn't rely on his existence to gain status, because she saw that the emperor saw the child's smiling eyes, which were full of tenderness.
At this time, no one can definitely understand her feelings, and the feeling of having a healthy and lively prince does not feel that this is an enviable thing.
Fortunately, her mood is low now, and the reason for weakness can be disguised.
The emperor, let her look at the baby, and laughed that he looked very similar to himself, and she suddenly realized one thing, where did this baby come from? Everything was done according to the queen mother's wishes, so this must be the emperor's child born to a low-status palace maid. The Queen Mother used this method to control her completely, so even when she was now showing her full heart to deal with the emperor's joy and comfort, she was also conjecturing in her heart, bit by bit, the mother of this child, she must find her, and then find a way to make her never tell this secret.
The only person who can threaten him is enough for the Queen Mother. Perhaps, she can also be brave and tell the queen the whole situation of these things, simply make a big doxxing, and then raise this prince justifiably. Anyway, no matter what the outcome is, the emperor has got a prince, and he can logically get rid of the queen mother's clamp on him.
"Listening to their reports, there were signs of dystocia at the beginning, and it was difficult for you to love the concubine! But I have long known that you will give birth to the smartest and most lovely prince for me, because you are never willing to let me down. The emperor held her hand tightly as he spoke. A thick current of warmth penetrated into her body from the palm of the hand that was holding each other.
The moment she looked at the emperor with joy, she was dissipated from the only little courage she had to tell the whole story. If she said it, the emperor would be very disappointed, he didn't have any credit, and just because she didn't know how to expose the queen mother's behavior to make their mother and son discordant, and even make it difficult for the emperor to be a man, why would the emperor give her this child, I'm afraid it's too late to punish her?
