Chapter Thirty-Seven: Nearly Slipping a Tire
On the queen's birthday, Li Jingyao and the Zhong family were not in a hurry, but the queen mother was busy alone, prepared a whole imperial dining room with delicious food, and pulled a few intimate concubines on weekdays to discuss the banquet with the Zhong family.

Seeing that the queen mother thought that the decoration of the hall was not grand enough, she was slightly dissatisfied, Zhong was very disappointed, she knew that the queen mother took care of herself everywhere, and felt sorry for herself, not because she was well-behaved to please the queen mother, but because of her father standing behind her.
Her father is Qianzhou Assassin Shi Taizhang, who once helped the emperor seize the throne, which is equivalent to the founding hero, whether it is the older generation of officials in the court or the younger officials, her father has always been full of respect, even if her father is far away in Qianzhou.
"The concubines see the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother, and I wish the Queen Mother a good birthday." Concubine Shu said and opened the brocade box herself, and motioned to the maid to step forward, "This is the plum blossom fragrance I made with my own hands, and I asked the lady to accept it." ”
Zhong stepped forward, smelled the faint fragrance, liked it very much, took it and said with a smile: "Thank you, you don't have to do this kind of thing yourself now that you are pregnant, just send the palace maids to do it." ”
"The things made by others on behalf of others, don't worry, the concubines don't dare to take them in front of the mother." Concubine Shu said that there was a thin layer of sweat on her forehead, she had been angry recently, and she was lying in bed to raise the fetus, and she had to come to the queen's palace when she heard the call of the queen mother.
In fact, she doesn't like Zhong very much, not because of her status as a queen who is higher than herself, but because she can't get used to the heartless smile on Zhong's face, and she does whatever she wants in this palace with the favor of the queen mother.
Never bow to anyone, even if it is the emperor, she has never tried her best to please as much as herself, she always says that she is casual when she encounters anything, and she does not force it, but such a non-contentious character is really annoying!
Just like at this moment, the Zhong family has completely turned their attention to the graceful and luxurious peony in the palace, Concubine Shu definitely does not believe that the Zhong family will not know about her own fetus, but at this time, she has not even said a word of permission to retire.
"Sister Zhong~" The seventeenth county lord shouted her name from afar and rushed up, seeing that half of the harem concubines had gathered in the hall, and seeing the queen mother cast a disgusted look, he hurriedly retracted his playful appearance, and saluted, "Guanyi see the queen mother, the queen mother!" ”
"Come on." Zhong smiled and beckoned to her, the seventeenth county lord squeezed into the middle of the queen mother and Zhong, his hands tightly wrapped around the arms of the two of them, the habit of this childhood has not changed until now, but the queen mother was very happy to be coaxed by her.
"Concubine Shu! What happened to you? The maid on the side exclaimed, and was glared back by Concubine Shu, wiped the sweat on her forehead and didn't say a word.
"What? Shu Fei is not feeling well? The Queen Mother squinted her eyes, and did not hear any concern in her tone, and said in an aggravated tone, "Since you are not in good health, then go back and take care of the fetus, and don't forget that you are pregnant with a dragon heir as soon as there is a lot of excitement!" The dragon heir is the most important thing, it doesn't matter if you don't take care of your body, but the dragon heir can't have the slightest mistake. ”
"Yes......" Concubine Shu tried her best to hold back the trace of annoyance, and said with some trepidation on her face, "The concubine will retire." ”
It's just that the person hasn't taken two steps, so he planted forward, but fortunately, the maid on the side quickly blocked in front of her, but Rao was like this, Concubine Shu was still sweating in pain, and couldn't help shouting.
This shout frightened everyone in the hall, from the queen mother to the palace maids and eunuchs, panicked, this ...... If the fetus is not saved, who will bear the blame of the emperor!
Li Jingyao was discussing with Li Xun and Wu Weizhong about patrolling the city at that time, when he suddenly heard that Concubine Shu had an accident, and the twists and turns in his hands were so frightened that they fell on the dragon case.
On the way there, I heard that it was caused by the queen's birthday, so I simply canceled the birthday party in a fit of anger.
"How is Concubine Shu?" Li Jingyao's tone was very cold, and his eyes were a little threatening, as if to say, if you dare to say bad news, watch your head.
"Back to the emperor, Concubine Shu is fine, but she is a little frightened, just take a few pills." Imperial Doctor Zhang said and added, "It's just that during this period, don't stimulate Concubine Shu, Concubine Shu's health is not good, and if you continue like this, ...... continue."
Imperial Doctor Zhang didn't continue, but Li Jingyao already understood, seeing Concubine Shu's pale and almost complexion-colored face, Li Jingyao felt a little ashamed of her.
As the first concubine in the harem to be pregnant with a dragon heir, she naturally has no less cold words, and she is busy with court affairs these days, and she has indeed snubbed her, but she has never complained.
"The Queen Mother! The Queen Mother, the imperial doctor is treating Concubine Shu's illness, and she can't go in yet! The Queen Mother ......"
Li Jingyao saw that Concubine Shu, who was immersed in pain, suddenly twisted her eyebrows, for fear that the arrival of the Queen Mother would stimulate her, so she hurriedly got up and went out, blocking in front of the palace and saying, "My son has asked the Queen Mother to say goodbye." ”
"The mourning family heard that the emperor was going to cancel this banquet, but the mourning family really didn't understand that Concubine Shu had a fetal gas, what does it have to do with the queen? No matter how sorry the emperor is for Concubine Shu, he shouldn't spill his anger on the queen! In this harem, the queen is in power, not this little concubine! The Queen Mother looked very angry, and she was too excited when she spoke, and she couldn't help coughing twice.
Li Jingyao hurriedly helped the Queen Mother to the side and sat down, and said softly: "I didn't mean to deliberately criticize the queen, it's just that she, as the head of the harem, has no reason not to know that Concubine Shu is raising a baby these days." She knew that Concubine Shu was pregnant with an heir, and she wanted to be my virtuous helper, so she should take care of Concubine Shu, and now Concubine Shu has a fetal gas in her palace, no matter what, the queen has lost her due responsibility! ”
"Since this is the case, please ask the emperor to punish the mourning family together! Because Concubine Shu was summoned to the queen's palace to celebrate the queen's birthday, if the queen is at fault, then the mourning family is wrong on top of wrong! The Queen Mother said with a calm face and a sharp tone.
Li Jingyao was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly comforted the queen mother and said: "Don't be angry, don't be angry with the queen mother, you can't blame the queen mother for this matter, since the queen is the head of the harem, then she has the responsibility to remind the queen mother that Concubine Shu is unwell, how can she watch the queen mother summon Concubine Shu?" I also knew that this was not a big mistake, but that the banquet was canceled and there was no other substantive punishment, so it was a small lesson for the queen. ”
"Isn't that enough? The queen of the mother of the world was canceled because of the concubine, if this spreads, where do you let the queen's face go? What do you make the people of Qianzhou think? The Queen Mother got up indignantly and said, "No matter what, this palace banquet must continue!" ”
