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

Gu Ruoruan was also curious about how the queen planned to prevent the women in the harem from having children.

The little girl pursed her lips and muttered: "Does Queen Liangliang want to be a little expert in abortion?"

Gu Huaijin's face was full of anxiety. He didn't know what the queen and concubine said inside, but even his grandson said it.

[Ding dong, your abortion order has been delivered. 】

Gu Ruoruan clicked her lips and looked at the young eunuch outside Fengyi Palace who came to report the news.

Gu Huaijin frowned, what about an abortion order?

The little princess is cute, but she likes to breathe heavily when talking.

It happens every time. I have to guess the first half of the sentence and the second half. It’s so uncomfortable.

After a while, the door was opened, and Concubine Zhao and the Queen came out.

Su Ye bowed forward and reported: "Mother, the concubine Shu from Chunxi Palace and Li Cairen from Changle Palace are one month pregnant."

"what?!"

The queen looked shocked before she finished telling Concubine Zhao that she would not let a woman in the harem get pregnant with a child.

Less than half an hour has passed, and there is news of pregnancy in the harem?

Concubine Zhao looked at her with a smile but not a smile: "Empress, it seems... I still need to seriously consider what you said to me."

Rather than placing your hopes on others, it is better to sit on the throne yourself.

The Queen's words seemed to win over her and the General's Mansion, but there was no guarantee that she would be like the Emperor when things were done.

"Don't worry, sister, I will give you a satisfactory answer."

The queen gritted her teeth and said.

Gu Ruoruan raised his head, his big eyes moving.

With a smile on her lips, Concubine Zhao asked someone to pick up Gu Ruoruan and leave Fengyi Palace.

Before leaving, the queen did not forget Gu Ruoruan and said specifically: "If my sister is bored in the palace, you can bring the little princess to Fengyi Palace. I welcome you at any time."

Concubine Zhao agreed, but she was thinking in her heart.

She would not come to Fengyi Palace. If she did come, the emperor would probably doubt her.

She didn't want to be exposed too early.

"Ruanruan, I will let Yunzhi go this time. Don't scare me anymore."

Concubine Zhao pinched her little cheek: "The Queen is not a good person. She wants to take advantage of the General's Mansion without even thinking about it. She is worthy of it."

Concubine Zhao sneered.

Returning to Chenghuan Palace, Concubine Zhao sat down and called Jinlan and others.

"Shu Concubine and Li Cairen are really pregnant?"

Concubine Zhao asked with surprise on her face.

She couldn't help but sneer when she thought of the Queen's vow to her that she would never let a woman in the harem get pregnant.

The Queen, finally couldn't hold it any longer.

If there is one person in the entire harem who hates the emperor the most, she is the queen.

"Concubine, do you want to work with Queen Liangliang?"

Gu Ruannuan nestled in her arms and raised her little head to ask.

Concubine Zhao had no intention of hiding it from her: "Ruanruan is obedient, my mother knows it well."

【How many? What does she have in mind? 】

[Are you planning to cooperate with Queen Liangliang to assist the unborn little grandson? 】

Gu Ruoruan didn't agree.

[The general's office holds military power. Unless my uncle and grandpa are willing to give up everything and return to their fields, otherwise... even if they support the emperor's grandson to rise to power, they will inevitably be jealous in the end. 】

[Unless..., the person who sits in that position can intimidate the court, and can suppress the ministers who have great achievements. 】

【Who can do it? 】

Gu Ruoruan had a lot on her mind, which was also what Concubine Zhao was worried about.

Concubine Zhao felt extremely sad when she saw her daughter being so thoughtful at such a young age.

What a good child, she must not let Ruanruan suffer any injustice.

After thinking about what Gu Ruoruan said for a while, I thought about it together with her.

The Queen wanted to use the General's Palace to deal with the Regent, but the Regent...

Every time she mentioned the regent, Concubine Zhao's face turned unnatural.

I have already started to think about what the emperor said.

"Master, after the emperor found out, he first went to Shu's concubine, and now to Li Cairen's."

Jinlan walked in and told Concubine Zhao the news.

Concubine Zhao was silent for a long time, and seemed to have made a great decision: "Jinxiu, go to the warehouse and prepare two gifts, and... the one my mother sent in years ago to send the Guanyin to Li Cairen. .”

When Jinxiu heard this, she knew what Concubine Zhao was thinking and immediately nodded to arrange the congratulatory gifts.

"Wait a minute, by the way, I want to tell the emperor that I will be waiting for him at Chenghuan Palace tonight and cook the old duck soup myself."

Concubine Zhao pursed her red lips and added another sentence before Jinxiu walked out.

Jinxiu's face was filled with joy until her mother-in-law figured out that she was planning to adopt the child in Li Cairen's belly?

Think about it, this is fine.

Li Cairen was of low status, had just entered the palace, and his natal family was unable to support him.

It was also her blessing that her master adopted the little prince she gave birth to.

In the future, with his own master around, the Li family would not be too difficult to get along with in the previous dynasty, and Li Cairen would not be at a loss.

"Ruanruan, my concubine knows that you don't like the Sixth Prince, but for the sake of our Zhang family and our future, I may have to adopt Li Cairen's unborn child."

If it's a little prince, then naturally it's best.

If it's a little princess, forget it.

Gu Ruoruan raised her little head and thought for a moment.

"Don't worry, mother and concubine. Ruanruan knows that she will definitely help mother and concubine take care of her little brother."

"Ruanruan is so good."

Concubine Zhao said with a soft smile.

Looking at the sky outside, it is no surprise that the emperor will come to Chenghuan Palace tonight.

Then he asked Jinlan to tell the people in the kitchen to make a pot of old duck soup.

That night, the lights in Chenghuan Palace were kept lit.

The emperor finished handling official duties in the Yangxin Palace and slowly arrived at the Chenghuan Palace.

Today, Concubine Zhao gave Li Cairen a statue of Guanyin as a gift. He found out in a short time.

In his heart, he really didn't want to come to Chenghuan Palace, but when he thought about it, the regent was still in the court, and the Zhang family and his son were about to return to Beijing, so he had to give Concubine Zhao some face.

After thinking for a long time in Yangxin Palace, I came to Chenghuan Palace.

Concubine Zhao has something to ask for, and she was particularly enthusiastic when she saw the emperor today.

The emperor felt a little dazed.

Looking at the smiling woman in front of him, his heart sank slightly: "Zhaozhao, why are you so proactive today?"

"Your Majesty, haven't I always been like this?"

Concubine Zhao pouted aggrievedly and blinked her bright phoenix eyes.

Gu Ruoruan, who was on the side, was eating her rice and looking at Concubine Zhao and then at the Emperor with her big eyes.

[Concubine, you are acting too obviously. Why can't Zha Zhalong see your little thoughts? He didn't see him, and his brows were so furrowed that he almost killed a fly. 】

Gu Ruoruan sighed helplessly.

In fact, she wanted to say that the emperor might not agree to let his mother-in-law raise Li Cairen's child.

It's a pity that she is young and there is no aura in this world, so she can only know what is going on in Chenghuan Palace. If it is further away, she will not be able to know.

How could Concubine Zhao not see that the emperor's brows were furrowed?

He had previously proposed that he should raise the children of low-ranking concubines.

Now that she agreed, if he couldn't give a good reason to refuse, she would keep messing around.

As for what the Queen would think, she didn't care.

Concubine Zhao poured him a glass of wine herself: "Congratulations, Your Majesty, another little prince will be born soon in the palace."

After the emperor sat down, the wine in his mouth was tasteless, but he couldn't help but frown.

It’s not Weiwei’s child. Everyone’s child is different.

However, Concubine Zhao's attitude made him unable to help but be wary.

"There has been no prince or princess born in the palace for a long time. I plan to make my concubine Shu my concubine, and Li Cai my concubine Li."

Before Concubine Zhao could speak, the emperor spoke.

There are rules in the palace that only concubines and above can raise children personally.

"Your Majesty, has the Queen agreed?"

The smile on Concubine Zhao's face disappeared and she sat down angrily: "The emperor also said before that he hoped that I would raise the children of lower-ranking concubines."

"Previously, I was worried that I would not be able to raise the sixth prince well because he was old. This time...I boldly begged the emperor to let me raise the little prince in Li Cairen's belly."

Concubine Zhao stared at him with sparkling eyes.

Under the dim candlelight, the beauty is as beautiful as jade, and her eyes are as charming as silk.

The emperor almost lost his mind and agreed to her.

"Your Majesty, you mentioned this before, and now that I have taken the initiative, why are you still hesitant? Could it be that...the Emperor deliberately deceived me?"

Concubine Zhao looked sad: "Did the emperor forget his promise to me? He said that when Prime Minister Wen falls, he will depose the queen, and then he will make me his queen and let his son inherit the throne."

"It's a pity that I'm useless. I haven't been able to give birth to a little prince for the emperor so far. My body was also injured when I was weak. I want to give birth to a lovely prince for the emperor myself, but I'm afraid I won't be able to achieve it in this lifetime."

Concubine Zhao became more and more sad as she talked, and her tears couldn't stop flowing out.

Gu Ruoruan opened her mouth slightly, and her heart was beating fast.

Is the mother-in-law acting good, or is she really sad?

Only Jinxiu, who had grown up taking care of her, knew best that her master might be really sad.

It was because I was sad for the little prince who had a miscarriage.

Her eyes also turned red, and she pulled Gu Ruoruan out of the house, leaving Concubine Zhao and the emperor alone to reminisce about their past friendship.

The emperor didn't speak for a long time, but he had already thought a lot in his heart.

Concubine Zhao stared at him sadly: "Your Majesty, are you still wondering why I refuse to raise the sixth prince?"

"What nonsense are you talking about, dear concubine? I...how can you blame you for this?" The emperor felt guilty after being told by Concubine Zhao.

Even the look in her eyes had a strange light.

But I felt very uncomfortable.

Of course, he has not forgotten what he said before to coax Concubine Zhao into fighting with the Queen.

But those were all lies to her. How could his empire be handed over to the prince she gave birth to?

This is equivalent to what is the difference between letting the Zhang family sit on the throne.

Thinking of the recent situation in the court, the Prime Minister's party has become more and more slippery. He has obviously made it obvious enough that the Prime Minister, that old fox, will never do anything to the Regent.

The matter of disaster relief fell into the hands of the regent.

The regent's reputation among the people originally exceeded that of the emperor, and he also held a guard camp that the emperor once had. If this happens, the regent's job will be done well.

It must have reached a higher level in the hearts of the people.

"Your Majesty also said that you don't blame me. Why did you look unhappy when I proposed to raise the little prince in Li Cairen's belly?"

Concubine Zhao said coquettishly.
