Chapter 486: Coaxing the Child
Shen Ling looked at the emperor's children standing in front of her, the eldest was already about the same age as her, and had already started a family, while the younger one was still babbling, and the emperor was really old and strong.
She didn't have a good impression of this group of children, and even felt annoyed, disturbing her dreams all morning, and it seemed that she came to settle accounts for a trivial matter as big as a sesame seed, who else could it be if she didn't listen to their mother's words?
But Shen Ling was at most impatient in his heart, and he didn't show half of it on his face.
"Hua Niangniang, we heard that you are going to give birth to a prince for your father, but our lives as the emperor's children will not be guaranteed, but is it true?"
The eldest prince asked directly.
Shen Ling paused, there were some discrepancies between what she said and the emperor, but she couldn't deny it.
"Yes, so for the sake of your safety, your father and emperor have no plans to add younger brothers and sisters to this palace for the time being, you can rest assured that this palace will not let such a thing happen."
Shen Ling thought about it, and chose a relatively euphemistic way to admit it.
She looked at the princes and princesses in wonder, it didn't seem to look so much like the emperor, the left and right were far behind and the seven princes, and the indifference on their faces was simply carved out of a mold.
She couldn't help but think of the bloodline test that the teacher mobilized a few days ago.
Her previous bloodline medicine was specially aimed at Wang Guifei, and she couldn't really distinguish the bloodline, whether the other people were the emperor's biological sons, she couldn't be sure, Wang Guifei would not be an exception, and there were still many fish that slipped through the net and survived.
Shen Ling thought like this, when the princes on the other side saw her say this, they still couldn't guarantee that she would really do it, and when they tested their bloodline, they thought that the reason why they could avoid it was because the magic weapon they gave them worked.
But being a prince also has the disadvantages of being a prince, and now that it is really a life-threatening time, he must not expose it, at least let Shen Ling understand the truth.
After that, everyone is in the same boat.
"Niangniang, since you are a sincere person, then we will confess to you that most of us are not the biological sons of our father, so if you really have a prince at that time, don't kill us irrelevant people."
Their words carried a little pleading, and they also had the meaning of kidnapping and threatening Shen Ling.
If you want to pray for shelter so bluntly, it is not a prayer.
She was calm on the surface, and her jaw was about to hit the instep of her heart in her heart, how could such a shocking thing happen to the royal family?
It was as if she had discovered some incredible secret by mistake.
Shen Ling subconsciously took a sip of the water glass in his hand, trying to hide his shock.
"Why don't you speak?" They looked at Shen Ling with speculative eyes, for fear that she would leak it out, otherwise it would be a big deal.
Shen Ling waved his hand to indicate that it was okay, "I know about you, but there are so many people, can the emperor really not know?"
She felt that according to the emperor's suspicious nature, he should not be a fool, did she really not doubt the child? This is a bit ridiculous and generous.
What's even more smack-smacking than these Shen Ling is that Xiang Caiguo is even more chaotic than she imagined, if eighty percent of the remaining princes and princesses in front of her are not born to the emperor, then wouldn't the green hat on his head be piled up into a mountain?
The two princes standing in front of Shen Ling looked at each other and decided to tell her the truth, "Father is not without suspicions, he has also had several inspections in the past, but everyone has their own ways to survive the inspection of the high priest, Wang Guifei is unlucky, she has lost her future and glory like that."
There was disdain in their eyes for Concubine Wang's actions, which also made Shen Ling feel a little uncomfortable in her heart, not because of the latter, but because their faces were a little too ugly when they said these words.
Enjoying the benefits of these corruption as a matter of course, but also without the slightest reflection, but proud, but also laughing at others for being stupid, it seems that this is not only chaos in the country, but even the hearts of the people are rotten and turned into nothing.
Shen Ling didn't know
How should Dao hold back the anger in his heart, and he doesn't know how to face the cannibalistic eyes and threatening eyes of these people, so he can only pretend not to see the general nod, and the essence of everyone is still unwilling to have any mutual trust.
She lazily raised her hand and pinched her wrist, without saying anything else, she didn't have any common language with the princes in front of her, and she didn't care if they would be alive tomorrow.
She is extremely indifferent to strangers in nature, and besides, these people who suddenly want to trouble her or ask her for protection really can't think about it, and they have never understood what kind of femme fatale she is.
She still had a compassionate heart on her face, and even looked at the children in front of her with gentle faces, and suddenly seemed to think of something, "Can you have breakfast? It's too early for this palace to give you anything, if there is anything that is not well received, please tell this palace."
The corners of Shen Ling's mouth were crooked, and the gentleness in her eyes made people feel that she was the most beautiful fairy in the world, giving people a feeling that she was unattainable.
"Hua Niangniang doesn't have to be so polite, we just want to ask you to spare us today, and it's not easy to say this from your heart, I hope Niangniang can hide something, otherwise the sons will definitely die in the future."
So many lives were so easily confessed to Shen Ling, she didn't know what to say for a while, it was the heart of a child, and she felt that as long as she worked hard, she could accomplish everything.
Shen Ling smiled faintly, and did not answer their words directly, but instead led to other topics, "Then how did you hide from your father? Did your mother's family insist on this? Then you are indeed pitiful, and you have become a lever for power and profit at such a young age."
She said this on her lips, but she already knew everything in her heart.
In the final analysis, it was the ministers who thought about it, worked for their own interests, exploited the loopholes in those rules, and taught each other experience, pinching their noses to make the royal family recognize them.
The emperor was pinched by these forces, even if he was suspicious, he was embarrassed to tear his face with the courtiers, so he could only endure it for the time being, tell and accept these children.
The princes looked at each other and did not answer her words.
Shen Ling patted them on the shoulder as a sign of reassurance.
