Ma'am, she only wants to be promoted

Both Qingzhi and Qingdai were a little embarrassed to be comforted by Lu Wanning in turn, and it was not good to continue to entangle in this matter.

"Master, Xu Jieyu should be giving birth soon, right?" Qingzhi said.

"Well, it should be just a few days." Lu Wanning said.

Xu Jieyu didn't know if she got advice from an expert. She was very low-key and stable after her pregnancy. Since she was eight months old, she took leave with the empress, and she didn't go to ask for peace. She just stayed in her own room all day long. Feed in the palace.

Now that I have been pregnant for more than nine months, I should give birth in a few days.

"If Xu Jieyu can give birth to a prince this time, she should be able to be promoted to Zhaoyi, right?" Qing Dai asked.

Lu Wanning smiled and said, "Xu Jieyu didn't get promoted after she became pregnant. I'm afraid she will be promoted no matter if she gives birth to a princess or a prince."

"It's a pity that Xu Jieyu is still just a Jieyu now. Even if she is promoted, she is just a Zhaoyi, and she still can't raise her own children." Qingzhi finished speaking with some regret, thought for a while, and then asked Lu Wanning, "Master, what do you think?" Who will the emperor give birth to the child Xu Jieyu gave birth to?"

Lu Wanning shook her head. She often couldn't figure out what the emperor was thinking. Nowadays, the only concubines who are qualified to raise children are Consort An, Concubine Jing, Concubine Noble and Empress. Before Ming Jieyu's children, she thought that the emperor would give them to Concubine An Come to teach, but the emperor handed it over to Concubine Ming.

She is not sure who the emperor will entrust the child in Xu Jieyu's womb to raise, but it will definitely not be entrusted to the queen and noble concubine.

As Xu Jieyu was about to give birth, the attention of the people in the harem turned to Xu Jieyu.

In Zhaoyang Palace, the imperial concubine teased a parrot with a very beautiful fur under the eaves for a while, then withdrew her hand somewhat dispiritedly, and went back to the house.

He took the handkerchief from Hong Jian, wiped his hands, picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea, then asked Hong Jian, "Is Xu Jieyu still alive?"

Hong Jian shook her head and said, "Not yet, but it should be soon."

The concubine nodded.

Hong Jian looked at the imperial concubine's expression, and tentatively said: "If Xu Jieyu's child is a prince..."

The noble concubine shook her head, and said with an ugly expression: "If Xu Jieyu's fetus really gave birth to a prince, the emperor probably wouldn't have entrusted me to raise him."

The noble concubine actually regrets letting Lu Wanning enter the palace at the beginning. Lu Wanning still has no pregnancy letter up to now. Seeing that it is impossible to conceive this year, she has made a lot of troubles, but the child of Lu family blood has not been born. I have also lost the grace, and it is really not worth the loss.

Hong Jian sighed and said nothing more.

Two days later, Luo Chengjing stayed at Linglong Pavilion again.

In the past few days, I don't know whether Luo Chengjing feels that Lu Wanning has suffered from Zifu's affairs, or Zheng Meiren can't go to bed after giving birth. Luo Chengjing came to Linglong Pavilion very diligently.

At night, Lu Wanning and Luo Chengjing were about to take a rest, but Lian Yongwang's whispered report came from outside, "Your Majesty, the little eunuch in Xu Jieyu's palace just said that Xu Jieyu started it."

"Understood." Luo Chengjing looked back at Lian Yong, looked at Lu Wanning in his arms and said: "My concubine, let's rest first, I will go and have a look."

Lu Wanning stood up knowingly, and said, "The concubine waits for the emperor to change clothes."

Waiting for Luo Chengjing to get dressed, Lu Wanning sent Luo Chengjing outside the Linglong Pavilion. Luo Chengjing glanced at Lu Wanning who was reluctant to part but said nothing, reached out and gently touched her cheek, and said: "Go in, after nightfall It's cold outside, I'll see you again tomorrow."

Lu Wanning immediately showed a bright smile, "The concubine will go in after sending the emperor away."

Luo Chengjing didn't say anything more, turned around and strode away.

Lu Wanning watched Luo Chengjing's figure disappear into the night, turned around and said to Qingzhi and Qingdai indifferently: "Let's go, let's go in."

Qingzhi and Qingdai looked at each other, followed Lu Wanning into the courtyard, and returned to the house.

"Master..." Qingzhi looked at Lu Wanning who was about to rest after entering the room, and called Lu Wanning hesitantly.

Lu Wanning looked at Qingzhi and Qingdai, and said amusedly, "What expression do you two have? Why don't you hurry up and wait for me to change my clothes."

Qingzhi and Qingdai were relieved to see Lu Wanning smile.

While helping Lu Wanning change her clothes, Qing Dai said: "Master, don't worry too. The emperor has come to our Linglong Pavilion very diligently. After you don't use that medicine next year, you will be able to conceive a dragon heir sooner or later."

Lu Wanning took that contraceptive drug again at the end of April this year, Qingzhi and Qingdai also knew about it.

It will be two years since Lu Wanning entered the palace next year, according to Qingzhi and Qingdai's thinking, the master should have a child.

But Lu Wanning still can't tell what the situation will be like next year. She is just a little beauty now. Even if she has a child, she can't raise it by herself. It's better not to give birth to her. , and moreover, there is the imperial concubine watching over her.

Of course, the most important thing is that the emperor may not want her to have a child. The military power in the Lu family is too heavy now. It would be fine if she gave birth to a princess. With so many military powers.

If the Lu family can hand over all the military power in their hands, she can consider stopping the medicine, conceive and have a child.

But without thinking about it, it is impossible for the Lu family to hand over the military power in their hands so easily.

After all, there is still a big difference between a marquis with real power and a loyal and brave marquis with no title.

This was also something that Lu Wanning slowly figured out after entering the palace. She even suspected that the imperial concubine had never been pregnant before, and that the emperor was not able to give birth after finally becoming pregnant. Did the emperor also play some role in fueling the flames?

Concubine Wu Gui had been by the emperor's side for so many years, but she hadn't figured out the emperor's temperament, let alone the situation.

If the imperial concubine sees the situation clearly, she should be her high-ranking imperial concubine, instead of dreaming of having a prince with the blood of the Lu family.

After she figured it out, she never thought about having children again.

Thinking this way, Lu Wanning didn't explain too much to Qingzhi and Qingdai, just said "hmm."

Lu Wanning was lying on the bed again, Qingzhi and Qingdai were afraid that Lu Wanning would not be able to fall asleep for a while, but they were still waiting for Lu Wanning to talk to Lu Wanning when Lu Wanning could not fall asleep, and Lu Wanning had already fallen asleep.

Hearing Lu Wanning's steady breathing, Qing Dai shook her head, "Master is really..., I'm afraid only Master can sleep so peacefully in the harem right now."

Xu Jieyu started it, there must be many people in the harem waiting to see the result of Xu Jieyu's delivery.
