Empress Wu smiled slightly, then sat down beside Wan Zhen'er and said, "Your honor, please come to this palace today, I don't know what the so-called thing is." ”

When Empress Wu saw Xiangxue go to her palace, she said that Wan Zhen'er invited her to enjoy the plum blossoms. She felt bored for a while, but because Wan Zhen'er was pregnant, she didn't want to dismiss her, so she agreed to rush over.

Wan Zhen'er opened her mouth and smiled: "I invited the queen to come, and there was nothing else, but I just felt that such a good snow scene, such a good plum color, if I didn't share it with others, wouldn't it be a pity, so I invited the queen to come over and enjoy it together." ”

"Sister Guiren has a heart."

The queen's smile was too elegant, and in Wan Zhen'er's eyes, she only felt angry. Full chest. Despite this, she didn't show it, she chatted with the queen mother for a while, and then said to Xiangmei: "Xiangmei, I have been sitting with the queen for half a day, and I feel that my mouth is dry, you will bring two bowls of white fungus lotus seed soup to quench the thirst of me and the queen mother." ”

Seeing this, Queen Wu persuaded her with kind words: "We have been in this garden for so long, and my sister's body is not very good, so let's disperse and go back to the palace to drink white fungus lotus seed soup." As Queen Wu spoke, she was about to stand up, but Su Mei, the maid beside her, saw this and hurriedly stepped forward to help.

Wan Zhen'er shook her head and said, "How is this good, we haven't been out for a long time, my sister is having fun, isn't the queen mother with me?" ”

Empress Wu had a difficult face, glanced at Wan Zhen'er, and saw her and Xiao Yanran, it seemed that she really hadn't appreciated enough snow, so she had no choice but to agree: "Okay, in this case, this palace is accompanying the noble sister for a while, but it is enough for my sister to enjoy the snow scene for a while, if the queen mother of the two palaces knows about it and blames it, the palace can not afford it." ”

"Okay, let's listen to the queen's orders." "Xiangmei, what are you still doing in a daze, hurry up and bring two bowls of white fungus lotus seed soup, remember that the bowl in the palace doesn't need sugar."

When Xiangmei heard this, she glanced at Queen Wu and her palace maid Su Mei, and quickly went back to serve the white fungus lotus seed soup.

Empress Wu was talking without a match. After a while, Wan Zhen'er suddenly said: "I don't know if the queen feels a little cold, but for some reason, I always feel quite cold." ”

The queen had never been pregnant, and she didn't know what it was like to be pregnant. Seeing that Wan Zhen'er said that she was cold, she turned to Su Mei and said, "Su Mei, you hurry back to Kunning Palace, take the goose feather big coat from this palace, and put it on the noble lady." ”

"Yes," Su Mei agreed crisply, and went back to Kunning Palace to get goose feathers.

Wan Zhen'er stood up, walked a few steps in the plum blossom pavilion, and then walked down the steps, she walked straight to the plum blossom and said: "This cold plum stands proudly in the snow, and it can still come out and fall in the pavilion, it is really the same as the queen's mother." ”

Empress Wu didn't know what Wan Zhen'er wanted to express in her heart. She had no choice but to smile and say: "Sister noble, how can this palace be on a par with the eldest princess, this ancient cold plum that was moved from Huaimei Garden. ”

Wan Zhen'er said with a smile: "Standing in front of this plum blossom, I feel that the fragrance is pleasant, making people feel quiet in their sleep, and they just want to never wake up from now on, and the queen mother might as well come over and smell it." ”

Empress Wu only felt cold all over her body, and she didn't want to accompany Wan Zhen'er to suffer in the ice and snow, but seeing that she insisted on doing so, it was not easy to disobey her, after all, she was pregnant.

Empress Wu walked: "Wan Zhen'er smiled beside her: "Sure enough, as Wan Guiren said, the fragrance of this plum blossom is very fragrant." ”

As soon as her words fell, Wan Zhen'er caught a glimpse of Xiangmei holding two bowls of white fungus lotus seed soup, walking towards this side, she took Queen Wu's hand and put it on herself, and then took two steps back suddenly, and fell to the ground, at the moment she fell, she shouted to Queen Wu: "Queen Mother, why do you want to be so cruel to me, my child is also the emperor's child, can you bear to kill him like this, he is also a little life," Wan Zhen'er finished speaking, and then cried. Wan Zhen'er's words fell word for word in the ears of Xiangmei who came to send the white fungus lotus seed soup.

She was holding the white fungus lotus seed soup, carefully stepping on the ice and snow to this side, and suddenly saw the queen's hand on Wan Zhen'er, and then Wan Zhen'er fell to the ground, there was red blood, flowing out along her legs, staining her white dress and plain clothes, in the white ice and snow, the blood stains were red like rouge, and like a raging fire, very shocking.

Empress Wu didn't know what was going on, she pointed at Wan Zhen'er and shouted very fiercely: "Why do you take my hand and put it on you, and then pretend to fall yourself, why?" ”

Wan Zhen'er made a very painful expression and cried: "Queen Mother, you are the mother of a country, why would you do such a thing, even if you don't like my child, you shouldn't murder him, he is also the emperor's child, you hate me in your heart, I can not appear in front of you, but why are you so ruthless, even the emperor's child has to be killed?" Wan Zhen'er said as Dasheng began to cry.

Seeing this, Xiangmei hurriedly climbed forward and pounced on Wan Zhen'er, the two bowls of white fungus lotus seed soup in her hand were knocked to the ground, and there was a "pop" and soon formed ice cubes in the ice and snow.

She leaned down to Wan Zhen'er's side, shook Wan Zhen'er's body, and asked repeatedly: "Noble lady, are you okay, are you okay." ”

Wan Zhen'er's face turned pale, and she said to Xiangmei: "Xiangmei, my child, you must save my child, I feel as if something is falling out of my body, I think my child may be gone." ”

At this moment, Queen Wu didn't care about pursuing so much, she saw this situation, and was thinking about what to do, just at this time, Su Mei took a goose feather and came over.

Empress Wu grabbed her and said to her: "Quick, go and pass the imperial doctor, just say that the noble lady fell down in the ice and snow, and let the imperial doctor come to the baby." ”

Wan Zhen'er struggled on the side, and said to Su Mei: "You must ask Imperial Doctor Zhang, my fetal is from Imperial Doctor Zhang, and he knows best." ”

Su Mei answered and hurried away.

Wan Zhen'er looked at Su Mei's distant back, with a smile on her face that was not easy to be noticed.

Empress Wu stepped forward, looked at Wan Zhen'er, and said to Wan Zhen'er: "Sister noble, you don't have to worry, your fetus will definitely be fine, don't be excited now, everything is waiting for the imperial doctor to come." ”

Wan Zhen'er looked at Queen Wu with hatred, as if she had a deep hatred with her, and said: "My child was killed by you, if there are any three long and two short, I will let you compensate for his life." ”

Empress Wu was shocked in her heart, and said repeatedly: "How could your child be harmed by me, I haven't done anything to you!" ”

As soon as Empress Wu's words fell, Empress Dowager Zhou was already surrounded by eunuchs and palace maids, and hurried over.

She was taken aback by the situation in front of her, and quickly asked, "What's the matter?" ”

Wan Zhen'er pointed to Empress Wu's face, as if she was trying her last strength, and said, "It's her, it's her who killed my child, my child." ”

After saying that, he fainted.

Empress Wu looked at all this blankly, and it was only at this moment that she realized that she had fallen into a trap carefully designed by others.

She raised her head and said to the Empress Dowager Zhou: "Empress Dowager, things are not like that. ”

Empress Dowager Zhou didn't allow her to tell the difference, her eyes were full of anger, she stretched out her hand and gave Queen Wu a slap, and said: "If there is anything to talk about later, if Wan Zhen'er's child really has three longs and two shorts, you can't hold your grandson, I won't finish with you." ”

After speaking, a palace maid led Imperial Doctor Zhang in a hurry.

Imperial Physician Zhang stretched out his hand to take Wan Zhen'er's pulse, his face changed drastically, and he said to the Empress Dowager Zhou: "The Empress Dowager is very cold outside, so it's better to move the nobles to the palace first." ”

Empress Dowager Zhou agreed, and the palace maids and eunuchs came forward to carry Wan Zhen'er back to the palace, and Imperial Doctor Zhang also went with her.

Imperial Physician Zhang sat in front of Wan Zhen'er's bed, trembling to check her pulse, and Se Tieqing behind Mrs. Zhou also sat aside.

Seeing that Imperial Physician Zhang didn't speak for a long time, Empress Dowager Zhou asked, "What happened to my grandson?" If you don't say it, the mourning family will not be finished with you. ”

Imperial Physician Zhang glanced at the Empress Dowager Zhou with some embarrassment, and said, "Empress Dowager, please avoid it first, okay?" Weichen has tried his best to diagnose and treat Wan Guifei. ”

Empress Dowager Zhou glanced at Imperial Physician Zhang and said, "How sure are you that you can keep my grandson?" ”

Imperial Physician Zhang showed a look of embarrassment on his face, and he said: "Empress Dowager Qi, Wan Guiren was thrown to the ground, and the fall was very serious. According to Weichen, so far adults and children can only keep one. ”

Before he finished his words, the Empress Dowager Zhou had already preemptively said, "Protect the child." ”

She said it categorically.

At this time, Wan Zhen'er didn't really faint, she was so angry that she gritted her teeth when she heard Empress Dowager Zhou's words.

At this time, Empress Dowager Qian and Jian Huaizhen also heard the news.

Imperial Physician Zhang hurriedly saluted them, and stood aside with a solemn face without speaking.

Jian Huaizhen hurriedly asked, "Empress Dowager Zhou, how is Zhen'er's situation current?" ”

Empress Dowager Zhou was angry with Empress Wu in her heart, so she glanced at Empress Dowager Qian and said: "Empress Dowager Qian is looking for a good queen for the emperor, since she doesn't even let go of the concubine's children." ”

After speaking, he said hatefully: "Imperial Doctor Zhang just said that adults and children may only be able to protect one, and I have already ordered him to protect the child." ”

"What? Want to protect your children? ”

Empress Dowager Qian only felt that this decision was too cruel, she had always been soft-hearted and a good person, so she persuaded from the side: "It's better to protect the adults first, no matter what, now that the emperor is in the prime of life, it is a matter of time before he gives birth to Lin'er." If you protect the children first and not the adults, this is unfair to the nobles. ”

Empress Dowager Qian's words were quite provocative in the ears of Empress Dowager Zhou, she glared at her hatefully, and said: "You are still embarrassed to speak here, if you hadn't insisted on making this Shuntian Wu family the queen, how could there have been so many incidents today." If Wan Zhen'er and my grandson have any three strengths and two weaknesses, they are all made by you, the good queen mother. ”

Jian Huaizhen heard that the two were arguing, so he thought about it and said to the imperial doctor: "Imperial doctor, you try to protect both of them." If you can't keep it, you can keep who is who. ”

Imperial Physician Zhang listened to Jian Huaizhen's order, and raised his eyes to look at the Queen Mother of the Two Palaces.

When the Queen Mother of the Two Palaces heard Jian Huaizhen say this, she knew that it was not interesting to argue again.

It's just that Empress Dowager Zhou is indignant in her heart, and what she feels sorry for is naturally her grandson, and she doesn't care so much about Wan Zhen'er's life and death.

Wan Zhen'er always knew that the Empress Dowager Zhou was ruthless, but she had also followed the Empress Dowager Zhou for so many days, and she had experienced a lot of ups and downs with the Empress Dowager Zhou. Although this follow-up has a lot of scheming in it, she really didn't expect that the Queen Mother Zhou would be so ruthless, and at the critical moment, she would even ask for her own life.

On the contrary, it was Empress Dowager Qian's attitude that made her feel unexpected, she had always known that Empress Dowager Qian was a kind person.

She also saved the life of the Empress Dowager Qian last time, but that rescue was originally designed by her, and it had nothing to do with her, and she rescued her just to save herself, and now the Empress Dowager Qian wants to save her, but she has no selfish intentions at all.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but clench her fists, but she still pretended to faint and didn't dare to say a word.

At that moment, the Queen Mother of the Two Palaces and Jian Huaizhen walked out of Wan Zhen'er's bedroom together and waited in the main hall outside.

Wan Zhen'er saw that they were all gone, then she opened her eyes and said to Imperial Doctor Zhang, "Everything will go according to our plan." ”

Imperial Physician Zhang nodded, and said with a solemn face: "Okay." ”

At this time, the wall on the edge of the dormitory seemed to have eyes, and suddenly opened automatically, and an old woman came out of it.

This old lady is Wan Zhen'er's trusted person, and she holds a seven or eight-month-old dead baby boy in her hand and sends it to Wan Zhen'er.

Wan Zhen'er glanced at the dead baby boy with disgust.

Imperial Physician Zhang persuaded from the side: "Wan Guiren, you must not make any mistakes. ”

The old lady's real surname was Chen, and she was originally just an old palace maid who was bullied in the pulp washing room.

Wan Zhen'er once saw her being bullied, so she took her for her own use, and this old lady really did everything for Wan Zhen'er.

Wan Zhen'er heard what Imperial Doctor Zhang said, and her face was expressionless at all.

The old lady said from the side: "Noble lady, this is a major matter where life and death hang by a thread. No matter how resentful and disgusted you may be for this dead baby, you must show your motherly love later. If you can't even deceive people like us, how can you deceive the Queen Mother of the Two Palaces and the Eldest Princess? ”

The old grandmother's words reached Wan Zhen'er's heart, she nodded and said, "Okay, everything will be done according to what you say, Mama Chen." ”

It turned out that all this was a plan set up by Wan Zhen'er, Wan Zhen'er did not get pregnant after having sex with the emperor once, she just pretended to be pregnant.

She bought off Doctor Zhang and asked Doctor Zhang to prove her pregnancy, so that she would not lose her favor.

After pregnancy, giving birth to a child is a matter of time or time, she once thought of two methods, the first method is to steal the day and transport the child from outside the palace into the palace to pretend to be the emperor's child.

But this method is too risky, in case it is exposed one day later, she Wan Zhen'er will definitely lose her head, and she will be connected to all the people close to her.

After thinking about it, she felt that this method would not work, because if the child had any major illness or minor disaster, and was accidentally found out by the imperial doctor that he was not the emperor's biological son, it would be a matter of time before the catastrophe was destroyed.

What's more, the Queen Mother of the Two Palaces and Jian Huaizhen are both very shrewd people, how can she allow her to use the children outside as dragon wings.

Another way is to pretend to be a few months pregnant, deliberately pretending to accidentally drop the child, this idea works in comparison, Wan Zhen'er decided to do so.

But in this way, the favor she began to get was about to be lost again, and she was unwilling.

Thinking about it, she felt that the only person in the palace who could pose a threat to her was Empress Wu of the Shuntian Wu clan, as long as she could think of a way to make Empress Wu lose her favor, then there would be no one in the harem who could compete with her for the time being.

So she decided to put the responsibility for dropping the child on Queen Wu, so she designed the scene in the snow.

After she saw that it was snowing, she deliberately pretended to go to the plum pavilion to enjoy the snow, and then sent the palace maid to invite Queen Wu. Later, under the pretext of supporting the palace maid, when Queen Wu was not paying attention, she deliberately fell to the ground and let the palace maid see it.

In this way, the palace maid thought that it was really Empress Wu who pushed her, and she could also testify for her in front of the queen mother and the eldest princess of the two palaces.

As for the blood, it was originally chicken blood, which Imperial Doctor Zhang had prepared for her a long time ago, and he put the chicken blood in the blood bag, and when the time came, Wan Zhen'er only needed to puncture the blood bag, and it would be seamless.

Wan Zhen'er's plan is going very well, and now there is only one last pass left, that is, to let Mama Chen buy a stillborn from the people, and then carry the stillborn from the secret room of the dormitory into the dormitory, and use this dead baby to pretend to be the emperor's lost child.

Wan Zhen'er has also been thinking about this plan for a long time, and the secret room in the dormitory was secretly dug by her.

She is also well-intentioned, digging a secret passage in the dormitory and no one found out, which shows that she is concerned about this matter.

Wan Zhen'er deeply knows that she is now thirty-six years old, if she doesn't take the opportunity to grasp her youth, then there will be no place for her to regret it in the future.

She deeply remembered that day when she was driven out of the palace by Yu Mian's mother.

Because she was born as a prostitute, she was rejected by Yu Mian's mother.

At that time, she became a beggar, alone on the street and bullied by everyone, since then she has made up her mind, not only will she not be bullied in the future, she will be a person who can control her destiny, she will enjoy the glory and wealth, she will be powerful, she will one day trample Yu Mian's mother under her feet.

Wan Zhen'er's heart fluctuated at this moment, and she knew that the success or failure of the matter was in one fell swoop.
