Chapter 66: Strategizing
In the early spring, Concubine Chen was born prematurely, there was no danger, and she was happy to have a prince, and the emperor gave the name Shen Lechun, the fifteenth prince of Dongyang.
In the room, Concubine Chen was lying weakly on the bed, and the baby's cry resounded throughout the room.
Su Wanxi looked at the newborn baby, and then breathed a sigh of relief and showed a relieved smile.
And Su Da and the rest of the palace people on the side also knelt down to congratulate, and secretly admired this Su Guifei, who could actually do such a thing as delivering a baby in person.
However, the emperor's body is not as good as before, after Concubine Chen gave birth, the emperor was ill, and since then he has been bedridden and has not left the decoction.
When the flowers are in full bloom, the emperor is not blessed to enjoy the beautiful scenery of spring. Su Wanxi took her self-made lotus seed soup to Funing Palace, and happened to meet the queen who was also by Shen Wen's bedside, so Yingying went over and handed the lotus seed soup to Qing'er.
"Sister Queen. Su Wanxi greeted lightly, but did not salute.
The queen smiled gently: "My sister is here too." β
"Your Majesty. Su Wanxi approached the bedside again, saluted Shen Wen, and said, "Your Majesty, the concubine has prepared lotus seed soup for you." β
"My sister and this palace really have a heart, this palace has seen the heavy heat in recent days, and also asked someone to boil lotus seed soup to the emperor. The queen said with a smile.
"The concubine didn't dare to compare with her sister. Su Wanxi smiled lightly and spoke in a calm tone, but she caught a glimpse of a whole bowl of untouched lotus seed soup on the table next to her.
"Where is my sister," the queen said lightly, and said, "This palace heard that you personally delivered the birth of Concubine Chen's sister a few days ago, and I didn't expect my sister to do these things." β
Su Wanxi said modestly: "It's just that I've accidentally seen books like this in the past." β
The queen asked lightly: "This palace can't understand, obviously the palace sent Wen Po over, but sister, why don't you allow Wen Po to deliver Concubine Chen's sister?" As he spoke, his eyes fell on Shen Wen on the bed.
And Shen Wen was half-closed, and he didn't pay attention to what the two women said.
Su Wanxi smiled faintly: "Concubine Chen's physical condition is better than anyone else, and I have already prepared a stable wife for Concubine Chen, so I really don't dare to bother my sister's people." β
The queen didn't blame, and said with a slight smile: "That's it, it's just that it's all a family, so why be polite." β
Su Wanxi nodded: "Sister has taught me a lesson, there will be no next time." "Then since you are here, the palace will go back first and take good care of the emperor." The queen said.
"Well, the concubines will. β
The queen saluted Shen Wen who was lying in bed again: "The concubine retires." β
"Hmm. Shen Wen only responded slightly.
The queen waited for everyone to leave.
Su Wanxi asked Qing'er to take out the lotus seed soup, and she wanted to feed Shen Wen herself.
"Concubine...... It's really heartfelt. Shen Wen said, slowly opening his eyes and looking at Su Wanxi.
Su Wanxi smiled and said, "Why don't you drink the lotus seed soup of Empress Fangcai's sister? Could it be that the emperor knows that the concubine is coming?"
Shen Wen struggled to show a smile and said, "You are the most naughty." β
Su Wanxi laughed smartly.
"How is Concubine Chen's health these days, is everything okay with the prince?" Shen Wen asked with concern.
Su Wanxi said: "Thanks to the emperor's blessing, Concubine Chen's body is still fine, and the little prince is only a little weak because of premature birth, so it will be good to recuperate slowly." β
"Hmm......" Shen Wen asked, "Why don't you want the queen's people to deliver Concubine Chen?"
Su Wanxi pouted and said: "It's not for the emperor, the concubine knows that the emperor is extremely important to the child in Concubine Chen's belly, so he doesn't dare to make the slightest mistake, although it is the queen's sister's person, but the concubine still has to guard against it, besides, you don't know, the queen's sister is the prince's queen mother after all, and the person who can't tolerate the rest of the princes in her eyes must belong to her." β
Shen Wen frowned and remained silent.
Su Wanxi blew the lotus seed soup cold, sent it to Shen Wen's mouth, and asked lightly: "What did the queen's sister just say? β
Shen Wen frowned when he heard this: "You know, concubine. β
Su Wanxi hooked her lips and said: "The concubine is right, as soon as you are sick, the politics of the DPRK and the Central Government will be turbulent, how many people covet this huge country, and it is natural for the queen to be anxious for the sake of the prince." She wants you to call the military power to the crown prince as soon as possible, just in case. β
Shen Wenchang sighed and said, "In my life, it seems really sad and ridiculous so far. A wife is not a wife, and a son is not like a son. β
Su Wanxi gently fed Shen Wen and said: "Your Majesty, you still have concubines, even if everyone in the world loses you, the concubines will not betray you." β
Shen Wen's eyes showed warmth, and his old and wrinkled hand held Su Wanxi tightly.
"Your Majesty, hold on for a while, and everything will be over. Su Wanxi said softly.
In the Renming Palace, the flowers are delicate, the bees and butterflies are flocking, Su Wanxi bypassed the Jiuqu Long Pavilion, avoided the communication of the subordinates, and walked straight to Concubine Chen's bedroom, and happened to see Concubine Chen sleeping on the bed, looking at the little Shen Lechun on the side with a loving face.
"Lechun. Su Wanxi approached and whispered the little guy's name.
The little guy seemed to like Su Wanxi very much, and when he heard Su Wanxi's voice, although he couldn't open his eyes, his limbs began to move slightly.
"Look at him, how much he likes you. Concubine Chen said jealously, "I don't know, I think you're my mother." β
Su Wanxi smiled: "Let's join the fate." β
Concubine Chen sighed helplessly: "Who told him to be held out by your hands!"
Su Wanxi shook her head with a faint smile and said, "It's also a great loss of your life." β
Concubine Chen remembered the day she gave birth, and said: "I only remember that my stomach began to hurt after drinking a glass of water that day, and there must be something wrong with that glass of water." β
Su Wanxi twisted her eyebrows: "But the thing has already been dealt with, and now there is no way to know who did it to harm you." However, this matter is too obvious for the queen. β
Concubine Chen gritted her teeth and said, "She is really ruthless." After a pause, he added, "There's another person who has a problem, haven't you noticed it yet?"
Su Wanxi's face was pale: "Hmm." β
"If you hadn't arrived in time, I'm afraid there would have been two dead bodies lying here right now. β
Su Wanxi's eyes became difficult to look at.
"What are you going to do with your good sister?"
Ruyue has a problem, Su Wanxi found out a long time ago that Ruyue has two hearts, although she helped Ruyue to be favored, but she also planted eyeliner and then Ruyue's side, and Ruyue has seen the queen a few times in private, Su Wanxi also knows, but she has never made it clear, after all, the time has not come.
Su Wanxi laughed, it was naΓ―ve to have such a big tree that she didn't rely on, so she wanted to uproot herself and replace it......
"When the queen is finished, her good days will come to an end. Su Wanxi said lightly, mercilessly.
"Yo, that's your good sister, you entered the palace together!" Concubine Chen quipped.
Su Wanxi didn't have a good face, and said: "The person who betrayed me, even if it is Su Ziyou, I will never show mercy." "This time, Concubine Chen was born prematurely, and it happened that Ruyue asked herself to go to the garden far away from the Lirenming Hall to enjoy the flowers, if it weren't for the queen's eagerness to make things so obvious, she might have chosen to stay with Li Ruyue for a while.
Hearing Su Ziyou's name, Concubine Chen was silent, lowered her head and looked at Shen Lechun on the bed, but unfortunately the corners of the child's eyes and eyebrows were not half of Su Ziyou's appearance.
"Here's to you. Su Wanxi took out an extraordinarily delicate jade pendant from her arms and handed it to Concubine Chen.
"What is this?" Concubine Chen looked at the jade pendant suspiciously, it didn't seem to be Dongyang's thing.
"He gave it to you. β
"Have you seen him?!" Concubine Chen looked at Su Wanxi in surprise.
"Well, I came to Fuyuan in the morning, and he was very worried about your body, but after all, he is a courtier, and he can't come to the harem to visit you and your children. This jade pendant is what he has been wearing, and he asked me to give it to you as a gift for the birth of a child. β
Concubine Chen took the gift as if she had received a treasure, and held her hand tightly, her eyes shining.
"Put it away, don't be seen, it's on the cusp now, it's best not to make extraneous branches. Su Wanxi reminded.
"Hmm. Concubine Chen responded and carefully put the jade pendant under the pillow.
"The ghost in your palace, do you have any clues?" Su Wanxi was worried, although Shen Lechun was born smoothly, there was deceit in the harem, and the killing machine was hidden everywhere, which had to make people worry.
Concubine Chen hooked her lips and smiled: "Don't worry, I will take care of these things, and I will let this child grow up peacefully." β
Su Wanxi nodded and said, "If you have anything, just tell Su Da, and he will help you." β
"Well, are your days set?" Concubine Chen said, feeling difficult to calm down in her heart, after all, it would not be long before the palace was undergoing earth-shaking changes.
"If nothing else, it will be seven days later. Su Wanxi said lightly, a hint of hunting cunning flashed in her eyes.
"Hey, I'd love to see the blood flow with my own eyes. Concubine Chen said, chuckling out of the blue.
"You're enough, Lechun is still sleeping here. Su Ziyou said that in a few days, he will send more troops to protect Renming Palace, and he will never let you and your children be wronged. β
Concubine Chen smiled faintly: "Hmm." β
Su Wanxi looked at the little guy sleeping quietly on the bed and smiled faintly, and said softly: "It's really happy, very cute child, he will definitely grow up safely, and in the future, this huge country may be his." β
Concubine Chen raised her eyebrows and said, "Forget it, I don't want to, when I've had enough, I'll leave with the child, don't leave me." β
Su Wanxi sneered: "Okay." After a pause, he added, "Take good care of yourself these days, I may rarely come over." β
Concubine Chen smiled: "I will, but you, don't steal chickens and rice, I can bet more on you, if you die, I am afraid that the child and I will not have a good time in the future." β
"Heh, I'm afraid it's not so easy to think of me dying. You have a good rest first, maybe by the time your body gets better, you will already be the mother of the world. Su Wanxi said, dyed with a vicious smile.
After many years, Concubine Chen always can't forget Su Wanxi's strategizing appearance now, even at that time, it was already a different situation.
