my wife is wonderful

Chapter 99 Doubt
"Of course I know, you are more reliable than your father, it's just a reminder."

Geng Xingshuang's heart moved, "What did my father do again?"

Ruan hesitated for a moment, but still shook his head, "It's nothing, your father and the others will go together tomorrow, he always runs to Zhuangzi recently, and I don't know how much Zhuangzi's production can increase this year, if the increase is less, it's not worth it He spent so much traveling expenses."

Ruan Shi complained helplessly.

Daning Palace, Zhongyu Palace
"What do you mean by what the emperor said just now? Is he blaming our mother and son?"

Sitting on the side of the big kang by the window was a beautiful woman with exquisite makeup and elegant appearance. She leaned against the big pillow embroidered with snow-covered bamboo sea behind her, and frowned slightly, as if she was asking someone else , as if talking to himself.

Kneeling on the side of the kang, the little palace maid beat her legs rhythmically, even her breathing became a little lighter, but the hand that beat her legs didn't dare to lose the rhythm even for a moment.

"This old slave thinks, did concubine Yao say something in front of the emperor yesterday..."

Before Fu's mother finished speaking, she saw the imperial concubine and empress shook her head slightly.

"Although the emperor went to Concubine Yao's place yesterday, it was not the first time the emperor mentioned that. Do you still remember that the emperor said a word on the day of Duanyang?"

Fu's mother thought for a while, and asked tentatively: "Is it that sentence, the weather in Duanyang this year is really hot, and I don't know if the snow on Yuyao Mountain has melted?"

Concubine Zhong nodded, when she heard Emperor Shengning's words, her heart tensed up, and she was thinking about how to answer, but fortunately, the emperor's voice was not loud, as if he was just sighing secretly, and then was interrupted by Concubine Jie's words.

"Speaking of which, I still have to thank Concubine Jie that night."

Concubine Zhong Gui said slowly, with a careless laziness.

"Concubine Jie probably did it unintentionally at the time, she didn't seem to have heard what the emperor said."

Mother Fu recalled the scene at that time and guessed.

Concubine Zhong said: "Don't look at Concubine Jie's nonsensical words, she is very smart, that is Concubine Min, that idiot, she believes whatever she says."

"Then Concubine Xin..."

"Concubine Xin? She's just pretending. She doesn't have a son. If she had a son, we would have another formidable rival."

Concubine Zhong sighed, "Concubine Jie made jokes that day at Duanyang. She helped me this time, and she will definitely get it back in the future. I'm not afraid of that, it's just what the emperor meant just now...I'm afraid I can't pretend that I don't understand it anymore. .”

Tonight, Emperor Sheng Ning, who had not spent the night in Zhongyu Palace for more than a month, came directly to Zhongyu Palace with only his confidant eunuch Gu Laishhou without anyone telling him.

Concubine Zhong admitted in her heart that she was pleasantly surprised at the time, but soon, her rationality returned, and creating surprises was not like Emperor Shengning's usual way of doing things.

Sure enough, after a peaceful dinner, Emperor Sheng Ning asked how Ke'er was doing these days, and whether his cough had improved.

Ever since Ke'er got this cough when she rescued Wei Jin from falling into the water when she was eight years old, the imperial doctor had to personally report Ke'er's physical condition to Emperor Sheng Ning every ten days, and Emperor Sheng Ning didn't need to ask her at all.

Emperor Sheng Ning naturally asked, there must be his intentions.

Not waiting for Concubine Zhong to give her thoughtful, self-conscious and incomparably safe answer, Emperor Sheng Ning said again: "Two days ago, according to the imperial doctor, Ke'er's cough could not be cured, but after so many years of recuperation, he Her health has improved a lot, and the issue of heirs...Ke'er is still young, so there is no need to worry too much."

"Your Majesty, Ke'er is not young anymore. In fact, Ke'er himself is not too anxious. Although there are three ways to be unfilial, and having no descendants is the greatest, but we all understand that you will not blame Ke'er for this, Your Majesty. Although the concubine wants to hug her grandson , but I also know that this matter cannot be rushed, so I can only continue to wait."

Emperor Sheng Ning glanced at Concubine Zhong Gui and nodded in agreement.

"What you said is that the issue of heirs can't be forced. Naturally, I won't blame Ke'er for this matter. It's a good thing that his health is getting better now... It's just that when I dream these days, I always dream of a vast expanse of whiteness. The cold wind hits me from all directions, and I feel so cold that even my bones hurt. Every time I wake up, I feel a little empty in my heart, alas... I am old, and as long as my child is far away, I always feel worried , besides, Yuyao Mountain is a place of narrow escape, alas..."

Emperor Sheng Ning bluntly changed the topic from Wei Ke to the fifth prince Wei Jin, sighed for a long while in Zhong Yu Palace, and finally took a deep look at Concubine Zhong Gui, just like when she came, and walked away quietly up.

I only had a tasteless meal in this palace.

Emperor Sheng Ning's words were quite obvious, when Concubine Zhong asked what she meant, Nanny Fu understood in her heart, it wasn't that the imperial concubine didn't hear it, but she didn't want to understand.

Emperor Shengning was blaming the imperial concubine and the mother and son of the third prince.

Although it is said that the five princes went to Yuyao Mountain to pick the magic medicine Yuyao flowers that only bloomed once every three years, and only three flowers were bloomed at a time. It was Yao concubine's suggestion, and the fifth prince volunteered, but the fifth prince was after all for the third prince's cough just went.

And how Yao concubine thought of letting the fifth prince go to Yuyao mountain, Yao concubine herself is probably still confused up to now, but the emperor may not know it.

"The reason why our third prince has a cough is to save the fifth prince. Now that the fifth prince has grown up, in order to repay his brother's life-saving grace, he ventured to Yuyao Mountain to collect medicine. This is different from the empress and the third prince. What does it matter, empress, the emperor is a father, and it is normal to think of any son when he is not around."

Nanny Fu comforted Concubine Zhong Gui.

Concubine Zhong suddenly sat up straight, her expression suddenly became serious.

"Mommy, don't say vague words to comfort me. The emperor's attitude is not a trivial matter. If you let it go on, it will not only affect Ke'er's future, but maybe even your and my lives will be in the blink of an eye. In the meantime, I told you this because I want to hear your opinion on what we should do now to dispel the emperor's dissatisfaction."

Fu Momo immediately pleaded guilty, "It's the old servant's fault, please forgive me!"

Madam Fu knew that Concubine Zhong Gui was not patient, so she said immediately after pleading guilty: "Young lady, since the emperor is worried about the safety of the fifth prince, why not go to the temple to pray for the fifth prince! Then the emperor will at least be satisfied with our attitude .”

"Go to the temple to pray to gods and Buddha? To pray for the fifth prince?"

Concubine Zhong Gui stood up, paced slowly in the room, and when she sat down again, she had already made up her mind.

"Okay, let's do it like this! Now I can't think of a better way. If Concubine Yao is not so weak, let everyone in the palace know that she listens to me in everything, otherwise let her Say something nice for Ke'er in front of the emperor, and show that Wei Jin's trip to Yuyao Mountain is entirely their mother and son's own idea. Bengong and Ke'er only learned about it after Wei Jin left, which can also make the emperor suspicious. But if Zhong Yao really said these words in front of the emperor, the emperor would definitely think that Ben Gong ordered her to say that.

So, Zhong Yao being raised so weak by them is actually not all a good thing. "

"Your Majesty, don't worry too much. Although the Emperor loves the Fifth Prince, we can't say whether the Fifth Prince can come back this time. Even if he is lucky enough to come back, with the temperament of the Yao Concubine, she will definitely urge the Fifth Prince to assist our Highness."

In fact, Nanny Zhong felt that the imperial concubine and the third prince made a wrong move, or they moved too hastily.
