37. Giving birth to a stillborn child

It always takes a lot of time for a woman to give birth, sometimes she will stay in the delivery room for a day or two, suppressing the pain of her body, just for her child to come into the world as soon as possible.

This is especially true of women in ancient times.

By the time the banquet was over, it was already nightfall.

The harem at night is like a ghost, with a resentment from the abyss, as if it wants to devour a qiē sin.

When Emperor Ming Jing led a group of people to the outside of the delivery room of Zhong Cui Palace, he could still hear Ning Wanyi's suppressed cry.

One sound, one sound, as if it hit people's hearts. Some timid concubines suddenly turned much paler.

"Ning Wanyi is okay now?" Emperor Ming Jing stopped a grandmother and asked.

Su Zhiwan recognized it, this grandmother is the proud person next to the Queen Mother, thirty or forty years old, I heard that the ancestor is a skilled imperial doctor, plus she has talent, she has been up and down in the harem for many years, and these harem secrets will definitely not escape her eyes.

If it weren't for this Wang Mama, I'm afraid the Queen Mother would have been killed when she was still a concubine.

So the Queen Mother was very grateful to her and treated her very closely.

It's just that there are not many people in the entire harem who know that there is such a Wang Mama, and even Su Zhiwan knows it in the hands of the people left behind by Empress Ming Xiaoyuan.

It seems that the Queen Mother is extremely optimistic about Ning Wanyi, and she is looking forward to Ning Wanyi giving birth to a little prince, and then going out of confinement to fight with the queen.

Speaking of which, the relationship between the Queen Mother and the Queen is now just a face-saving relationship.

Maybe the queen was angry under the queen mother in the past, but now, with her skills, and the queen mother calculated her in private, the queen will naturally fight back.

This came and went, and the friendship of the past disappeared, leaving only the competition for interests.

The affairs of the harem, the queen mother handed over all the things to the queen in the name of worshipping the Buddha in her early years, and now it is not easy to interfere openly, so she can only use some means secretly.

The queen's phoenix seal was handed over to Concubine Liang by Emperor Mingjing, although she was famous and reasonable, but when she acted, she was also a little shrunken.

These two people are fighting equally.

Now, just look at the imperial heir in Ning Wanyi's belly.

As long as she is a prince, the queen mother can justifiably ask for a position for Ning Wanyi, and naturally the queen will be weak.

However, Concubine Youliang secretly pushed it.

Su Zhiwan quietly watched how the Queen Mother of the Buddha lost her wife and her soldiers.

Mama Wang's expression was not panicked, her face was calm, but she just said, "If you go back to the emperor, Ning Wanyi is afraid that there are signs of dystocia now, the mother and child are in danger, and the slave is about to go to get the century-old ginseng, in order for Ning Wanyi to give birth safely." ”

When Emperor Ming Jing heard this, he was stunned for a long time, waved his hand, motioned her to go down, and fell on the chair, looking a little dazed.

Su Zhiwan frowned slightly, pursed her lips, looking at him like this, did she think of Su Zhixian again?

Back then, Su Zhixian died in childbirth, leaving only a little prince waiting to be fed.

Although Emperor Ming Jing's feelings for Empress Ming Xiaoyuan can deceive some little girls, how much real love is there?

Sometimes love fades over time, especially imperial love.

There are 3,000 beauties in the harem, and the triennial draft, I don't know how many newcomers will be added to this huge harem.

Maybe a few years ago, Emperor Mingjing would be grief-stricken, but after ten years, Emperor Mingjing still remembered Su Zhixian.

For an emperor, this is absolutely incredible.

Then Su Zhiwan can boldly guess that maybe the affectionate emperor in front of her knows something.

In Su Zhiwan's opinion, the death of Empress Ming Xiaoyuan is definitely not simple.

On that day, the imperial city moved, and Empress Ming Xiaoyuan was indeed pressed by the pillar in order to save Emperor Ming Jing, but there was absolutely no strict zhòng Cheng Dù who died immediately after giving birth to a child.

And in the palace, the power of the world is concentrated in the hands of the person who sits on the dragon chair.

As long as he doesn't want the queen to die, no matter what he says, he can take a breath, and it is absolutely impossible to go to see Cheng Dù who went to see Lord Yama right away.

Empress Ming Xiaoyuan was obviously assassinated.

And it was the person who hated her for poisoning, and he was afraid that Emperor Ming Jing would pull Empress Ming Xiaoyuan back from the ghost gate, so he simply didn't do anything and did it directly when she gave birth.

Maybe she also wants to pull the royal heir in her womb and let them reunite in the underworld.

However, Empress Ming Xiaoyuan was not a fuel-efficient lamp, and finally gave birth to the prince in a desperate situation.

But a wisp of incense disappeared.

Emperor Ming Jing should also know about this qiē.

The funny thing is that Emperor Ming Jing made an infatuated and unrepentant look, and did not track down the murderer.

Or maybe he had a vague guess in his heart, but he wasn't sure.

Su Zhiwan sneered in her heart, although she had not seen the legendary Empress Ming Xiaoyuan, but, in good conscience, she was currently able to get a high position in the palace, and she was all stained with the light of this queen, so she looked down on Emperor Ming Jing from the bottom of her heart.

Since the Queen Mother arrived at Zhongcui Palace, she sat aside, holding Buddhist beads in her hand, constantly turning, closing her eyes and silently reciting Buddhist scriptures, looking solemn.

She actually cared very much about the child in Ning Wanyi's belly.

Speaking of which, cultivating an emperor who is close to the Wang family is only one of the reasons.

What's more, she wants to cultivate a favorite concubine who can oppose the queen.

Before the queen was favored, the harem said that the queen was in power, but in fact, she was just meddling, and in major matters, it was the queen mother who made the decision.

People are eager for rights, and suddenly they are gone, and the gap is not ordinarily large.

After the queen was favored, she didn't take the harem to Cining Palace to "consult" her, from this point, the queen mother can see that the queen has a big heart.

It is not surprising that the queen was later abandoned.

Now, the Queen Mother is looking at Ning Wanyi's child.

I heard Mama Wang say that she was pregnant with a prince.

Su Zhiwan stayed in this crowded Zhongcui Palace and had nothing to do, and she might be suspicious, so she simply said to Emperor Mingjing and returned to Xianfu Palace.

Emperor Ming Jing seemed to be still distracted, and after listening to Su Zhiwan's accusation, he just waved his hand, which was allowed.

A few nobles Xiaoyi, probably also afraid of trouble, sued Emperor Mingjing and left with Su Zhiwan.

Not far from the Zhongcui Palace, there is a small pond in the Imperial Garden, surrounded by rockeries, cobblestone paths, under the shade of green trees and red flowers, the artistic conception is far-reaching, very beautiful.

Su Zhiwan sat on the Luan car, carried by a few little eunuchs, and before she arrived at Xianfu Palace, she heard news from Zhong Cui Palace - Ning Wanyi, gave birth to a stillborn baby!

"Huh." Su Zhiwan imagined what the Queen Mother's expression would be at this moment.

There are also some regrets that they left so early and didn't see it as a joke for the Queen Mother.

Since entering the palace, the queen mother of the Buddha has seen her all kinds of unpleasantness, and almost pointed at her nose and scolded.

Su Zhiwan will clean her up sooner or later!

After sending the palace maid who passed the message, Su Zhiwan arrived at Xianfu Palace after a while.

After staying in Zhongcui Palace for a while, it was already the middle of the moon, and I thought that there were no guests in Xianfu Palace, but I didn't expect that there was still someone waiting for her here.

"Awan ......" The ten-year-old little prince sat on the big bed in her dormitory, blinking her big eyes, pouting her mouth, and said aggrievedly.

Su Zhiwan took a deep breath, endured it but still couldn't hold back, and rolled her eyes.

She still underestimated Li Chengze's cheeky Cheng dù!

She pretends to be a loving mother, and he sells cuteness.

This fit ...... Hehe.

"Your Royal Highness the Prince, what's the matter?" Su Zhiwan didn't bother to look like a mother, and said lazily.

The waiter behind him silently took off the hairpin for the concubine Niangniang, spread her hair in a bun, and didn't mind the storage of His Royal Highness the Prince, so he took off his coat directly and helped the concubine into the room with only one screen.

There was a huge tub in the room, the hot water was full, and the mist was thick with heat.

After a while, when Su Zhiwan was lying in the bathtub, Li Chengze walked in slowly.

"What are you doing here?" Su Zhiwan smiled, "I heard that you have an extra brother?" ”

Ning Wanyi gave birth to a male fetus.

"But he died in his mother's womb." Li Chengze shrugged his shoulders and said nonchalantly, apparently his news was not slow.

He never cared how many "younger brothers" and "sisters" he had.

As long as none of them come out of Awan's belly.

As long as Ah Wan has fun.

Su Zhiwan raised her hand, revealing her fair and delicate wrist from the petals, ignoring Li Chengze's instantly fiery eyes, it was rare to have this mood to play with water, "Emperor Mingjing may have another father-son relationship with you in the next few days." He remembered your birth mother, my sister again! ”

Although Li Chengze is not strictly speaking the child of Empress Ming Xiaoyuan, the power left by Empress Ming Xiaoyuan is inherited by him, no matter how you say it, there is also a bit of friendship.

Remembering Emperor Mingjing's greeting to him at the beginning, he couldn't help but pout, "He doesn't have time to pay attention to me, the prince of the Su family, now." ”

Su Zhiwan raised her eyebrows and said with a smile, "What are you doing to the Su family again?" ”

"I asked the Su family to encourage the Wang family to jointly sign a letter and make a prototype of the imperial examination system." Li Chengze said with a smile.

This dynasty is like there is no gunpowder, there is no imperial examination system, and it is still in an era similar to the Jiupin Zhongzheng system.

All official positions were basically monopolized by the clans.

In addition to the leading emperor, a dynasty is also composed of officials of various sizes, and for the time being, officials are inextricably linked to the family.

This is something that an emperor will never be able to bear.

But for a while, there was no feasible way to break this situation, which gave Emperor Mingjing a headache.

At this time, the advice of the Wang family made Emperor Mingjing's eyes light up.

"You just dug a pit for the Wang family?" Su Zhiwan said without the slightest sympathy.

"The Wang family is also a clear stream, this kind of opportunity to become famous in the world, how can you not agree to the opportunity to trample the Su family on the soles of your feet?" Li Chengze said with a smile, "In a few days, with the Wang family's fame, the Su family has to lie dormant. ”

"Oh?"

Su Zhiwan has always been unconcerned about these court matters, and they were all handed over to Li Chengze, and she only occasionally knew a piece of news.

"When the time comes, those big families will cry and beg the Su family to come forward......"
