Quick Travel: Who taught you how to attack villains like this?

When the queen woke up, she saw Concubine Shu smiling happily as she held the son she had given birth to with great effort. It was the first time she had seen such a loving look on her face.

Queen: "???"

No, this child is hers, right?

What is Concubine Shu doing?

Is there no place to vent this loving motherly heart?

Yu Yan noticed that the queen had woken up, and immediately came over, gently placed two pillows behind her back, and then carefully helped her up.

"Miss, how do you feel? Are you feeling uncomfortable?"

The Queen smiled and responded, "I'm fine."

She reached out and gently patted the back of Yu Yan's hand, indicating that she didn't need to worry.

At this time, Concubine Shu heard the noise here, turned around holding the child, with a hint of surprise and joy on her face, and said softly: "Oh, he's awake!"

Seeing this, the queen couldn't help but roll her eyes, raised the corners of her mouth, and smiled coldly: "Seeing you hug him so affectionately, someone who doesn't know would think this is your son."

There was a hint of sarcasm and dissatisfaction in his tone.

However, Concubine Shu didn't seem to care about the queen's sarcasm. She walked to the bed with the child in her arms and sat down, smiling and replied: "With the relationship between us, your child is just like my child, right? Sister, don't be jealous. Isn't it better to have one more person to love him?"

After saying this, she did not forget to tease the baby in her arms.

Queen: "..."

I didn't know before that Concubine Shu was not only arrogant and domineering, but also so shameless?

What's the relationship between the two of them? What kind of relationship? The one where they stabbed each other in the back before?

Perhaps it was because the Queen's disdainful look was too obvious that caused Concubine Shu's remaining conscience to emerge. She showed an awkward smile on her face, carefully handed the child in her arms to the Queen, and whispered, "Come, look at the child you worked so hard to give birth to, how cute!"

The queen lowered her head and her eyes fell on the red, wrinkled baby in her arms. Her heart tightened and she almost couldn't help crying.

The child's appearance was so beyond her expectations and far from what she had imagined.

In her imagination, her child is white and tender, as lovely as snow and jade, making people feel soft-hearted at the sight of him.

She turned her head and looked at Yu Yan with doubtful and worried eyes, and asked in a trembling voice: "Yan Yan, is this really my son? How can he be so ugly..."

Seeing the empress' tearful eyes, Yu Yan reached out and gently stroked her back, and quickly comforted her: "Don't worry, Queen! All babies are like this when they are born. They will grow up and become plump, white and beautiful in a few days."

After saying that, she gently pinched the little prince's cheek again and said with a smile: "Look at his little appearance, he will definitely be a handsome little prince in the future!"

After hearing Yu Yan's words, the queen felt a little relieved, but she couldn't help but ask worriedly: "Yan Yan, are you sure? I always think he is so ugly, is there any problem?"

Yu Yan smiled and shook her head, patiently explaining: "Don't let your imagination run wild, Queen. Every child is like this when they are born. It will be fine in a few days. Besides, he is in good health and cries loudly, which means he is healthy!"

As she spoke, she placed her fingers to the little prince's lips and teased him.

The little prince immediately opened his mouth and tried to bite her finger, causing everyone to laugh.

If it was someone else's words, the queen would definitely not believe it, but when it came to Yu Yan's words, the queen believed it without a doubt.

She finally felt relieved, and her eyes showed maternal love and expectation.

She gently rocked the little prince in her arms and said softly, "My dear, your mother will take good care of you and let you grow up healthy."

Concubine Shu was watching from the side and quickly nodded in agreement, "I will also protect him well."

This is the prince that their Duke Zhenguo Mansion wants to support!

Whether she can be a comfortable and carefree concubine in the future depends on this prince.

Seeing her smiling face, the queen lost her jealousy and stopped bullying her. She smiled and said, "You said it."

Concubine Shu nodded, "Yes, I said that."

The two of them looked at each other with smiles in their eyes.

The two people who had always been hostile to each other put aside their past prejudices and finally shook hands and made peace.

In the early morning, the sunlight shines on the glazed tiles of the palace, reflecting dazzling light.

Inside the court, the atmosphere was solemn and dignified. Civil and military officials stood neatly on both sides, their eyes focused on the emperor sitting on the dragon throne.

The emperor was wearing a dragon robe and a crown on his head. His face was majestic and his eyes were as sharp as an eagle, as if he could see through everything.

At this time, the eunuch's sharp voice sounded: "If you have something to say, please report it. If not, please leave the court."

After the words fell, the court fell into a brief silence.

Finally, the Minister of Rites took a step forward. His steps were firm and steady, as if he had a sense of mission.

After bowing to the emperor, he said, "Your Majesty, the Empress is the legitimate wife and the birth of a legitimate son is a great blessing for the country. However, the crown prince is the foundation of the country and is related to the country's future stability and prosperity. I implore Your Majesty to make the legitimate son the crown prince to ensure the orderly succession of the throne."

"I second the proposal!"

The words of the Minister of Rites caused a commotion in the court, and other ministers echoed them, expressing their support for making the legitimate son the crown prince.

They believe that this is an important measure to maintain royal orthodoxy and ensure long-term stability in the country.

For a moment, the court was filled with a tense atmosphere.

The emperor sat on the dragon throne, quietly looking at the ministers kneeling on the ground with an unclear expression.

His eyes were deep and complex, as if he was thinking about something.

After a long while, the emperor slowly spoke: "Yesterday the queen gave birth to a legitimate son, and today you petitioned to make him the crown prince. Do you think I won't live long? It's time to make a will, right?"

The emperor's voice was deep and majestic, echoing in the court and shaking everyone's heart.

Hearing the emperor's questioning, the ministers turned pale with fear, knelt down and kowtowed to apologize, shouting in unison: "We are terrified!"

Their foreheads were pressed against the ground, and they dared not raise their heads for fear of angering the emperor.

The entire court fell into deathly silence, with only the ministers' breathing sounds intertwined in the air.

The Grand Tutor was a veteran of three dynasties, highly respected, loyal to the court, and deeply trusted by the emperor. He slowly knelt down, straightened his body, looked at the emperor firmly, and spoke in a low and powerful voice.

"Your Majesty, last night when the Empress gave birth, I was dreaming and saw the late Emperor riding a huge golden dragon circling over the Imperial City for a long time. The dragon was lifelike, its scales gleaming with golden light, as if emitting endless majesty and power. Under the control of the late Emperor, the golden dragon soared in the sky, like a god descending from heaven.

Then, the late emperor stretched out one hand and waved it gently, and the five-clawed golden dragon rushed towards the Empress' Fengyi Palace like lightning. At that moment, the entire palace was shrouded in the light of the golden dragon, shining brightly.

After I woke up, I couldn't calm down for a long time. If I was the only one who dreamed of this scene, I might have regarded it as a strange dream, but this morning, I learned that all the civil and military officials in the court had dreamed of the same scene last night. This made me think deeply, is this the will of heaven? Or is it the spirit of the late emperor who showed up to warn us? "

The Grand Tutor paused for a moment, tears flashing in his eyes, and continued, "I believe that this must be the guidance of the late emperor's spirit in heaven. The late emperor has always been concerned about the future of the country. He hopes that we can make the legitimate son born by the queen the crown prince to ensure the stability of the succession to the throne and the prosperity of the country."

The Taifu's words were powerful, full of respect for the late emperor and concern for the future of the country.

His eyes revealed a firm belief that moved people.
