Chapter 142 The Prince
"It was born!"

The maid ran out to announce the good news: "Concubine Shu gave birth to the little prince safely!"

Hearing this, Su Lijin breathed a sigh of relief.

The queen mother was overjoyed, and immediately rushed in, looking at the baby wrapped in swaddling clothes, with a smile on her face.

"Thank God, the grandson of Ai's family is safe and well, it's really the blessing of the ancestors."

Looking at the little baby lovingly, the queen mother seemed to think of something, and asked, "Concubine Shu is so fine, why did she suddenly give birth prematurely?"

She was really taken aback when she heard the news that Concubine Shu had given birth prematurely. Fortunately, she is fine now, so she couldn't help but pursue the matter.

The palace maid hesitated, glanced at the queen mother, and then at the inner room.

The Empress Dowager's expression was slightly stern: "If you have anything to say, just say it. In front of Aijia, you dare to cover up and be careful with your skin!"

Kneeling on the ground with a plop, the maid bowed her head and begged for mercy: "The empress dowager calms down, it's not that the servants dare not speak out, it's because the person who pushed the concubine Shu is the empress, the servants are really afraid."

"You said the Queen overthrew Concubine Shu?" The Queen Mother frowned.

The maid nodded again and again: "It was the Empress who pushed Concubine Shu, who fell to the ground and gave birth prematurely."

"Queen, you are really vicious enough to murder Ai's grandson!"

The queen mother smiled coldly, stood up, and left the bedroom angrily.

Outside the hall, Su Lijin was standing there, when the Queen Mother saw her, her chest was filled with anger, and she raised her hand angrily and slapped her hard!

Su Lijin's body flashed subconsciously, she dodged the slap, narrowed her eyes and said, "Queen Mother, what are you doing?"

The queen mother stared, and said angrily: "You don't know what the Ai family is doing? The Ai family will teach you a lesson, the woman who murdered the emperor's grandson!"

"The concubine murdered the emperor's grandson? Queen Mother, who did you listen to?" Su Li was so angry that she wanted to laugh.

Hearing this, the Empress Dowager glared at her angrily, pointing at Concubine Shu's bedroom: "You pushed Concubine Shu to the ground, causing her to give birth prematurely, do you still want to deny it? The Ai family never expected that you would be so vicious!"

It is clearly slander!

Su Lijin didn't need to think at this moment to know that it must be Concubine Shu who poured dirty water on her end, which caused the Queen Mother to regard her as the culprit.

Unexpectedly, this Concubine Shu wanted to be a demon just after giving birth.

Thinking about this point, Su Lijin sneered: "Queen Mother, Concubine Shu is clearly slandering her concubines. Everyone knows exactly how she fell down. If you don't believe me, you can ask other people!"

The immortal on the side looked angry, knelt down and said: "The Empress Dowager, Concubine Shu, she fell while walking on her own. This servant can testify that this matter has nothing to do with the empress."

"Your court lady will naturally cover for you, do you think Aijia will believe it?"

The queen mother snorted coldly: "Queen, you have no children since you entered the palace. You must be jealous of Concubine Shu for having a prince, so you want to murder the child in her belly!"

"The Emperor is here."

The eunuch reported outside.

······
At this time, in Yikun Palace, the Queen Mother was holding the baby in her arms, smiling lovingly.

On the other side, Su Lijin stood not far away, watching this scene a little bored.

Just now outside the hall, the queen mother let her stand beside her after she had taught her a lesson.

It is not difficult to see that the Empress Dowager intentionally let her watch their grandparents and grandchildren looking happy. She guessed that she should be envious of Concubine Shu for giving birth to the prince. If she stood here and looked at the little prince, she would definitely be jealous to madness.

He wanted to punish her with this torture method.

The empress dowager's way of manipulating people is quite poisonous, but unfortunately, she used the wrong person.

It may be effective for other concubines.

But she, Su Lijin, was not among them.

With a calm expression, Su Lijin looked sideways at the door.

Xiao Shengxun appeared in a black gold-patterned dragon robe, his black eyes were deep, and he couldn't really see the expression in it.

He glanced at Su Lijin briefly, then walked to the side of the queen mother.

"The emperor is here." The queen mother waved happily, and said triumphantly, "Come and see, your prince looks really cute."

Su Lijin glanced at Xiao Shengyun, and thought, he should love this child very much.

Her eyes dimmed for a moment that she didn't notice, but it disappeared soon, and those beautiful eyes were still moving.

Xiao Shengyun glanced at the baby, but didn't move closer, and said coldly, "It's as long as the Queen Mother likes it."

The queen mother was taken aback for a moment, and then said displeasedly: "What is this called, does the emperor not like his own children?"

Faced with this question, Xiao Shengyun chose not to answer directly.

Seeing him like this, the Empress Dowager felt a little dissatisfied, she glanced at Su Lijin who was standing beside her, and immediately snorted: "Your Majesty, you came just in time."

The Empress Dowager glanced at Su Lijin with disgust: "The empress has lost her virtue, she is really not worthy of being an empress, why not just abolish the empress today, and clean up the atmosphere in the harem!"

She said the word "abandoned empress" extremely emphatically, her eyes were full of disgust for Su Lijin, as if she felt disgusted even if she looked at it even more.

Hearing this, the corners of Su Lijin's lips curled up in a mocking arc, and her eyes turned to Xiao Shengjin.

"Queen Dowager, don't mention such a big matter as the Empress Dowager, don't mention it again."

"Your Majesty, the empress has lost her virtue and cannot afford to be the mother of a country. She stays in the harem, which will only make the harem restless. Today, if Concubine Shu was not so lucky, the grandson of the Ai family would have died! "

The Queen Mother said, her eyes were extremely angry, if it wasn't for the fact that the emperor was at the side, she was so angry that she wanted to slap Su Lijin again.

Xiao Shengyun frowned: "What does Concubine Shu's birth have to do with the Empress?"

Su Lijin smiled lightly, with a sarcasm on the corner of her lips, and said: "Yes, the concubine has said that, Concubine Shu's premature birth has nothing to do with the concubine, but the queen mother believes in slander, not in concubines and maids, so she insists on identifying It's the concubine's fault."

Hearing this, the anger on the Empress Dowager's face almost rushed to the top of her head: "Your Majesty, the Empress is really too vicious, she must be abolished today!"

A hint of impatience arose in his expression, and Xiao Shengyao said in a deep voice: "Abolishing the empress or not abolishing the empress is a matter of the general state of the country and should not be dealt with hastily. You must be exhausted today, Empress Dowager. If you don't go back to the palace to rest, don't bring up this matter again." .”

Faced with the empress dowager's reluctance, Xiao Shengyun always kept an evasive attitude. The empress dowager heard her temples swell, and said angrily: "Your Majesty, you have been bewitched by the empress! Why are you so confused!"

Su Lijin almost laughed out loud, but the Queen Mother said that she had become a demagogue.

If she really has that kind of witchcraft, that would be great.

She doesn't have to confuse the emperor at all, wouldn't it be better to confuse the queen mother and concubine Shu directly?Lest they make trouble for themselves all day long.

Seeing that Xiao Shengyun couldn't make sense, the queen mother gasped for a few times, the baby in the swaddle moved, the queen mother's eyes moved, and said directly: "In this case, the Ai family will not force you for the time being, but the matter of establishing the crown prince must be done quickly. , Right now Concubine Shu is giving birth to a little prince, and I am saddened to see that she is the perfect candidate for the prince."
