Rebirth of the Beautiful Repaying Gratitude: Quick Transmigration and Childbirth System
Chapter 183: The Upright Emperor vs. the Widow (29)
Liu Qianyu cooperated closely, and Murong Di Ze tasted the sweetness. He couldn't stop and couldn't stop from then on.
Liu Qianyu also spoiled him and indulged him.
Murong Di Ze is getting more and more outrageous...
In this way, time passes quietly in absurdity and sweetness.
At the Mid-Autumn Palace Banquet, the emperor's words, "My Imperial Concubine and my children are my reverse scales, whoever touches them will die!" and the confirmation that the royal heir looked strikingly similar to the emperor as a child, quickly spread throughout the palace walls and beyond.
Like a gentle spring breeze, it completely extinguished the doubts about the royal bloodline.
There was a solemn atmosphere inside and outside the palace, and the rumors about the imperial concubine and the royal heir were curbed like never before.
Inside Yongfu Palace.
Queen Zhou Jinyu had a look of worry on her face. She was turning the beads in her hands and looking out the window with empty eyes.
The personal nanny Zhang walked gently into the hall, bowed, then slowly stepped forward and reported in a low voice.
"My Lady, there's a letter from the Zhou family. The elders of the clan discussed and concluded that..."
The nanny paused for a moment, observed the queen's expression, and continued speaking.
"Since it is difficult to achieve it openly, the clan suggests that we take a step back and discuss with the Imperial Concubine to adopt the Crown Prince under the name of the Queen. This will not only satisfy the Majesty's wishes, but also allow the Zhou family to save face."
Zhou Jinyu laughed and threw the beads heavily on the table, making a crisp sound.
"Save face? If I really do this, where is my face? What dignity will I have in this harem?"
The nanny knew the queen's temperament well, but she was helpless and had to continue persuading her.
"Your Majesty, the family's intention is also for the sake of the overall situation. Your Majesty has always attached great importance to the distinction between legitimate and illegitimate children. If the prince can be born to the Empress, it will be beneficial to Your Majesty and the Zhou family."
Zhou Jinyu closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and when he opened his eyes again, his eyes were filled with determination.
"Mammy, I won't give in! How can I give in so easily? Liu Qianyu is just an orphan from a merchant family! And a divorced woman! How can she take away everything from me?"
The nanny was anxious inside, but she remained calm on the surface.
"My lady, I understand your pain, but the current situation is not favorable to you. If I force it, it will only backfire."
Zhou Jinyu clenched her fists so tightly that her nails almost dug into her palms. She gritted her teeth and spoke each word clearly.
"Wait a little longer and see if there is a chance to kill her. Only by killing her can we solve the problem once and for all!"
When the nanny saw this, she was worried, but she also knew that the queen had a strong personality and would be difficult to persuade, so she could only step aside silently.
I secretly pray that the situation will turn around and prevent this proud queen from falling into an abyss of no return.

Queen Zhou Jinyu held the letter close to the candlelight and watched the flame devour it bit by bit until it turned into ashes.
"Madam, a month has passed, and Liu Qianyu has been staying in Liuli Fairyland every day, and I can't find any opportunity. My mother's family has sent me letters urging me to come back, and their words are full of anxiety and dissatisfaction. I can't delay any longer."
Nanny Zhang hurried forward and whispered words of comfort, her words full of loyalty.
"Your Highness, you are the legal wife. The Emperor has always followed etiquette and laws. No matter how big or small the matter is, the law comes first. Although the Imperial Concubine is favored and has a son, she is not the legitimate wife after all. As long as we act carefully and follow the law, we will be able to find a way out of this matter."
There was a gleam in Zhou Jinyu's eyes, as if she was touched by Nanny Zhang's words.
She pondered for a moment and gave instructions to Nanny Zhang.
"Mammy, go and tell the Imperial Concubine that I have something important to discuss with her and ask her to come to Yongfu Palace immediately."
"Yes, my lady. I will go and ask the Imperial Concubine to come over now."
Liu Qianyu took light steps and stepped elegantly into the magnificent and majestic hall of Yongfu Palace.
She was wearing an elegant green long skirt, the hem of which brushed the ground lightly and swayed in the wind, like a green lotus blooming in spring, fresh and refined.
The unique twin lotus birthmark on her forehead makes her even more charming amidst the interweaving of light and shadow.
Queen Zhou Jinyu sat on a high throne, wearing a gorgeous phoenix robe and surrounded by pearls and jade, showing her noble and inviolable temperament.
However, her sharp eyes could not hide her anxiety.
She watched Liu Qianyu walk slowly into the hall, her pace neither hurried nor slow, each step appearing so graceful and natural.
Liu Qianyu's face was calm, her eyes were indifferent and composed, and her voice was neither humble nor arrogant.
"I wonder what important matter has your Majesty summoned me to discuss?"
Since the emperor had given an oral order, the queen could not take it as a mistake for not performing the ceremony.
The queen took a deep breath, tried hard to suppress the anger in her heart, forced a smile on her face, and spoke in a gentle yet majestic tone.
"Sister Liu, you have worked hard to take care of the princes and princesses. Come, sit down first."
Liu Qianyu smiled faintly and was not in a hurry to sit down. She just waited quietly for the Queen's next words.
The queen secretly cursed Liu Qianyu in her heart for being ungrateful, but on the surface she still maintained the queen's demeanor and spoke slowly.
"Sister Liu, the Crown Prince is the future heir to the throne of our Red Flame Holy Dynasty. He should be born by the Empress to show his legitimacy. I intend to adopt the Crown Prince as my own. What do you think, Imperial Concubine?"
Liu Qianyu sneered in her heart, but her face remained expressionless and her tone was cold and firm.
"Your Majesty, what you said is wrong. The Crown Prince is your Majesty's son. His origin is noble enough. He does not need to borrow your name to add glory to it."
"Besides, the prince is intelligent and clever. He would be a wise monarch no matter who he is under."
The queen's face darkened and anger surged in her heart, but due to the situation and her status, she had to suppress her anger and try to convince others with reason.
"Royal Consort, please don't be ungrateful! If I hadn't thought about you giving birth to an heir to the royal family, why would I have discussed this matter with you? You should know what the status of the empress's legitimate child means to the prince!"
Liu Qianyu chuckled. The laughter was crisp and pleasant, but it carried a sharpness and sarcasm that could not be ignored.
"My queen, status and identity are not important to me. In fact, if you had not provoked me, we could still live in peace, and I would respect you as the queen. But you should never have the intention to kill me."
The queen's face suddenly changed and she denied it angrily.
"What nonsense are you talking about? When did I ever resort to such shady means? Don't slander me!"
Liu Qianyu pressed on step by step, her eyes sharp, staring directly into the queen's eyes with a cold tone.
"Your Majesty, do you really think I am a fool? Do I need to remind you of those assassination attempts? Your Majesty, it is time to settle some accounts."
The queen was so angry that she was shaking all over, but she was speechless and could only make up excuses.
"I don't know what you are talking about! But I am the queen. Even if the prince ascends the throne, I am the grand queen dowager, and he has to call me mother! I am the legal wife, and you are just a concubine. If a concubine makes a mistake, the mistress has the right to beat or kill her!"
Just when the atmosphere was tense, the voice of the system spirit rang in Liu Qianyu's mind.
"Host, the Son of Luck has received the news and is already here. He will arrive at the scene in two minutes."
Liu Qianyu curled up the corner of her mouth with a sneer and moved closer to the queen.
