Become a winner in life after binding the childbearing system

When Xiaoji came to Li Guiquan with instructions from his master, Li Guiquan was sweating profusely as he dealt with the mess caused by the Emperor.

It's a real mess. The emperor is vomiting blood and needs treatment, but other things still need further arrangements. Even though the emperor has explained how to deal with it, orders cannot be just given out; people still need to carry them out seriously.

Li Guiquan was so busy that he ran back and forth between the Qianqing Palace and several palaces in the harem. When he saw Xiaoji coming out of the side hall, his heart skipped a beat: the imperial concubine had woken up.

Oh my goodness, the Imperial Concubine is not going to cause trouble like Concubine He in the Qimei Palace, is she?

Li Guiquan was trembling with fear, but he still forced a smile on his face as he greeted Xiaoji and showed concern for the imperial concubine who was recuperating in a side hall.

Xiaoji pulled the corners of his stiff lips and said, "Thank you, General Manager Li, for your concern. The queen has woken up, and Imperial Doctor Lu said that her health has improved.

The Empress thought that the Qianqing Palace was busy and the Emperor couldn't do without Li Zongguan's care, so she planned to return to Furong Palace to recuperate. "

Li Guiquan's eyes sparkled. He never expected that the imperial concubine was really his benefactor. She offered to leave at this time, which was a great help.

"Please ask Miss Xiaoji to tell the queen that we will definitely take care of the matter of returning to the palace."

As soon as he finished speaking, Li Guiquan waved his wrist and told the eunuch to arrange the sedan chair and other manpower, striving to make sure that everything was in place so that Shen Yao could walk comfortably and sit with peace of mind.

Xiaoji: ...

How could Xiaoji not know that Li Guiquan had already made a plan? Even if he hadn't brought it up, the other party would have found a chance to arrange it.

It is indeed better for the master to explain it first, giving both parties a way out while saving face.

But in the end, it was his own master who was wronged. Everything went well when he first came, but in the end, he lost his body, hurt the relationship, and had to face the hustle and bustle in front of outsiders.

"As long as the emperor can understand my goodness, I won't feel wronged."

Shen Yao returned to Furong Palace in a sedan chair and was greatly relieved to see that the situation in the palace was good.

Xiao Ji frowned, "Master, you" just had a miscarriage.

Shen Yao patted Xiaoji's arm with a firm look in her eyes, "I know."

It cannot be said, even though the matter has been diagnosed by the imperial physician and is no longer a secret in the Qianqing Palace.

Xiaoji took a deep breath, turned around and went to the small kitchen to get medicine and soup for his master.

Xiaofu also rushed over after hearing the news. While caring about his master's health, he also gave a detailed report on the situation of the two little masters.

"Xiaofu, Sheng'er and Xi'er are left to you. If I want my health to get better, I need to rest for a while, and the emperor still has things to deal with in the past.

Don’t let Sheng’er and Xi’er go out for the time being. Send the palace affairs to Lanxin Palace and hand them over to Concubine Xian. I’m afraid someone will take the opportunity to cause trouble, causing Concubine Xian to worry more.”

Xiaofu nodded when she heard that, and comforted her master with words, telling him to rest and recuperate. She and Xiaoji would take care of these trivial matters and would make sure they would not disturb the master.

“Well, you are a loyal servant who protects your master, it is good that you have such thoughts.

I will take care of the palace affairs, and let the Imperial Concubine rest in peace."

Even though she had been promoted from second-rank concubine to first-rank concubine, Zheng Shiyi's attitude towards the outside world remained unchanged.

Her relationship with Shen Yao is neither close nor distant. Even though Shen Rong has married into the Zheng family and given birth to children, the two of them are still clearly distinguished in the palace.

It is also at times like this that Zheng Shiyi would show a little bit of concern, like a breeze brushing across your face. If you don't feel it carefully, it's hard to understand anything.

All we can say is that both of them are cautious enough. As high-ranking concubines in the harem, their every move attracts attention.

The court officials, the emperor, and the concubines, the three forces are intertwined, who dares to stand out?

"Your Majesty, there was chaos in the Qianqing Palace today, and Concubine He in the Qimei Palace had a miscarriage. Is there someone plotting against this?"

The maid sent Xiaoji away and turned to talk to Zheng Shiyi about the unusual things in the palace.

Zheng Shiyi smiled and nodded. "Not only the concubines in the palace are jealous of the royal heir, but even the previous dynasty is jealous too." It is normal for someone to take action, and what happened today is simply a chain of events.

Although she had no idea what exactly happened in the Qianqing Palace, she could infer that what happened in the Qianqing Palace today was no less serious than what happened to Concubine He who had a miscarriage in the Qimei Palace, simply from the fact that the imperial concubine was wrapped tightly and carried back in a sedan chair, and that the imperial physicians from the Imperial Medical Bureau were called to the Qianqing Palace.

"Think about it, under what circumstances would the imperial concubine give up her palace duties?"

It’s not that the imperial concubine covets power, but that as an imperial concubine she needs to hold real power.

The maid continued to think over what her master had said, and finally brought the topic to the topic of offspring.

After all, the imperial concubine had given birth to two healthy royal heirs, so it was not impossible for her to become pregnant again.

Zheng Shiyi: …

Zheng Shiyi sighed, "It would be fine if she was really pregnant." Their two families were allies. If the imperial concubine's son ascended to the throne in the future, Zheng Shiyi would even be guaranteed retirement. "What I'm afraid of is not pregnancy, but miscarriage."

Same as Qimei Palace.

Maid:……? !!!

"Your Majesty, this shouldn't be possible." All the people in the Qianqing Palace are the emperor's people. Who would dare to attack the imperial concubine on the emperor's territory?

Zheng Shiyi had more thoughts than the maid, including the fact that the emperor had become increasingly absurd and arrogant in recent years. In the end, she did not voice out the more horrifying speculations in her mind.

Main Hall of Furong Palace

The system talked to Shen Yao about Concubine Xian, "You are so smart. You guessed that you might have a miscarriage through a few small things."

Shen Yao turned over with her back to the bed curtain, "Although Mr. Zheng is a scholar, he is not pedantic. He knows how to adapt and is well versed in how to protect himself."

The virtuous concubine was taught by Mr. Zheng and had a correct attitude since entering the palace.

The concubines in the harem have experienced ups and downs in the past few years. Has anything happened to Concubine Xian?'

She did not fight or compete, and relied on the help of her family elders and her own understanding and tact to secure a place by the emperor's side, and lived a better life than most of the concubines.

The system agreed, "Yes, there are many concubines in the harem, and only the host and the virtuous concubine can last long. He Chongyi can barely be considered half of it. "The others have long been stuck in the quagmire and cannot extricate themselves, not to mention that they occupy a considerable position in the emperor's heart.

Closing her eyes and relaxing, Shen Yao fell asleep with a peaceful heart.

Just because Shen Yao can sleep well doesn’t mean others can sleep well.

Main Hall of the Palace of Heavenly Purity

Yu Yu has been in a daze since he vomited the blood. The imperial physicians from the Imperial Hospital were busy giving him acupuncture and giving him medicine.

Hard work pays off, and Yu Yu's spirits finally improved a little.

However, Yu Yu would rather not be well, because the images in his mind kept haunting him, and the remorse he felt for miscarrying two royal heirs at once reached its peak.

The emperor cannot be wrong. The only ones who are wrong are those who have bad intentions.

Completely forgetting that it was because he could not hold back his anger and got mad at the imperial concubine that caused her miscarriage, the first thing the emperor told Li Guiquan to do was to thoroughly investigate the Qianqing Palace, including the memorials from the border and the court. "We must thoroughly investigate everything. I will never allow anyone to secretly interfere!"

Li Guiquan nodded in agreement. No matter what he thought in his heart, he must follow the emperor's orders.

Since they want to thoroughly investigate the Qianqing Palace and the memorials submitted to the public, the commotion will be huge.

When Shen Yao opened her eyes at dawn and drank the rice porridge that Xiaoji brought from the kitchen, the Yulin Guards had already been dispatched. All the officials from the three divisions in charge of the interrogation were called to the Qianqing Palace. They had only one core task, which was to investigate thoroughly.

Everyone:...

What is the standard for a thorough investigation? Is it to leave no room for error or to stop while the going gets better?

"You gentlemen are all the emperor's confidants. I believe you understand this matter better than me."

Li Guiquan's words were unfathomable, but a servant did not show any servile flattery. "The emperor wants the truth, so please take the trouble and don't let the emperor down."

Some things cannot be said directly, and it is normal to be tactful and euphemistic again.

The court officials who received the order left the Qianqing Palace together. They did not discuss with each other on the way, but tried to figure out the meaning conveyed indirectly by the emperor and Li Guiquan.

The emperor's intention was normal. He wanted them to make every effort to thoroughly investigate and rectify the court. Many people would be implicated in this wave. After all, there were too many memorials accusing the Shen family, and they had heard about it a long time ago.

Li, the chief steward beside the emperor, was unhappy with the words of a eunuch, but they still had to analyze the information revealed seriously.

"Your Majesty wants the truth?" What is the truth? Of course, it is to narrate the whole incident in an objective and fair manner.

"Don't let the emperor down." If you disappoint the emperor, it may bring you unexpected disaster. The strategy of hiding when necessary cannot be used all the time, and it certainly won't work in the current situation.

The advantage of very smart people is that they like to think a lot, and the more they think about it, the more profound it seems.

In reality it may just be a casual remark, but in their eyes it is not so.

"Sir, shall we investigate?"

"Check! As court officials, we should help the emperor solve his problems."

"Sir, where should we start?"

"Everything from beginning to end, without missing a single thing," it would be best to record everything they said.

…………

Sometimes, human potential is endless, and you will reap rewards if you push yourself.

The first results came out inside and outside the Qianqing Palace. Li Guiquan was so ruthless that he could tell the gender of even a mosquito that flew by, let alone hide a person.

Sure enough, the eunuch who invited the imperial concubine over had ulterior motives, and Concubine He did not have a natural miscarriage. The masterminds behind all this were none other than the emperor's good brothers outside the palace.

"Hmph! I think they just won't give up." It's not enough to kill one of them. They continue to fight against me. Their positions in the clan government are indispensable.

He directly ordered the Yulin Guards to take the man and throw him into the clan house. The emperor learned the lesson from Prince Cheng and first charged him with the crime of murdering the royal heir.

These princes must be dissatisfied. How can they prove that they arranged it when a little eunuch speaks without any evidence? Maybe someone else deliberately framed them, or someone staged it themselves.

As early as the incident with Prince Cheng, the emperor had already fallen out with several of his cheap brothers. They would quarrel with each other during court sessions every day, and would try to trip them up and cause trouble whenever they got the chance.

Now that the emperor has done this, the other princes cannot be cowardly even for the sake of their relatives. They must engage in verbal battles with the emperor, manipulate public opinion, and even stir up a few debates among the people, just to make the emperor fearful.
