A palace full of cannon fodder reads my heart, and ladies are killing each other indiscriminately

"Bastard, haven't you already given birth to the prince? What's going on inside?"

Gu Yan was in a state of confusion. He was looking forward to this child very much.

Gu Ruoruan looked confused, with tears in her eyes. She stood at the door of the delivery room and asked, "How is my mother-in-law? Why is she crying so loudly?"

"Where's Sister Jinlan? Why didn't Sister Jinlan come out?"

A series of questions were asked that the palace maid guarding the door didn't know how to answer.

Just when Gu Ruoruan shouted to go in, Jinlan's eyes were red, she came out holding a swaddle, and knelt at the emperor's feet.

"Your Majesty, the imperial concubine gave birth to a stillborn fetus. Our master was stimulated by this and is bleeding heavily. The imperial doctor has already gone in to rescue her."

"Death? Stillbirth?!"

Gu Yan stared at the baby in Jinlan's hand in disbelief, never having the courage to take a look.

Jinlan's eyes were red, and she didn't seem to be faking it.

Even Gu Ruoruan was crying out of breath, which was heart-wrenching to watch.

The queen's face was not very good, and she frowned and looked at Gu Ruoruan worriedly.

She didn't believe it at first, but now listening to Gu Ruoruan's heart-wrenching cry, she began to believe it.

What's more, Zhang Zhaozhao couldn't fool them with a dead baby.

After all, a living prince is much more useful than a dead one.

It’s just...can Zhang Zhaozhao really not survive it?

She looked at Gu Ruoruan with some worry.

This harem is like a devil's cave that eats people without spitting out their bones.

Children without a mother concubine will eventually be adopted by other high-ranking concubines.

Now that Gu Ruoruan is only five years old, I'm afraid... once the imperial concubine leaves, the women in the harem will have thoughts they shouldn't have.

To be honest, she was also very excited.

He wanted to hold Gu Ruanruan under his knees.

Who doesn't miss a soft and smart little princess?

"Woo hoo hoo, I want to see my mother and concubine."

Gu Ruanruan cried hoarsely, hugging Gu Yan's thigh and bursting into tears.

"Where is Doctor Zhang? Why has there been no news for so long?"

Gu Yan was also anxious.

Only he himself knows how sincere he is at this time.

"Doctor Zhang has been inside trying to find a way to stop the bleeding. Your Majesty...our master...said that if there is anything wrong with her, I hope...I hope the princess can be remembered in the name of the Concubine Xian."

When the queen heard this, she began to give her last words. It couldn't be true...

Soon she looked at Gu Yan with suspicion.

Her eyes hurt Gu Yan.

Is the queen suspicious? Was it him who made someone move her hand?

Having just lost a prince, he immediately became furious: "Queen, what are you looking at me for? What are you thinking?"

The queen immediately knelt down with a look of panic: "Your Majesty, please calm down. I just feel sorry for the imperial concubine. She was obviously fine before. Why did she give birth to a stillborn child?"

Gu Yan's heart skipped a beat.

Yes, why did you give birth to a stillborn baby?

"Back to the Empress, the imperial doctor actually said a long time ago that our master's body contains a lot of musk. Although he can conceive the child safely, the prince may be weak and sickly. Our master..."

Jinlan raised her head, glanced at Gu Yan, and choked with red eyes: "But in order to be able to give birth to a child, the imperial concubine has been careful to protect her pregnancy during this period, hoping to receive God's mercy and give birth to a healthy prince... did not expect……"

The news was like a bolt from the blue.

Gu Yan vomited blood. No one knew better than him why Zhang Zhaozhao's body contained a lot of musk.

It turned out... that he had killed his own heir himself.
