Harem for a living

Chapter 86

Until the evening, Concubine Hu's child was not born. Chen Manrou originally planned to go to bed early at night. After all, Concubine Hu's life and death had nothing to do with her.She still has to think about the child in her womb, and she doesn't want to follow in the queen's footsteps at this moment.

However, thinking of saying hello every morning, Chen Manrou gave up the idea of ​​going to sleep.Although it is said that the queen has a miscarriage at the moment, she will definitely not want to see them tomorrow morning, but whether they will go or not is a matter of attitude.

Although she had an excuse of being frightened, she couldn't pretend that she didn't know about such a big event that happened to the empress. The best thing was to show her face at Yongshou Palace. Since she was going, she couldn't look too good.

Generally speaking, Chen Manrou seldom puts on makeup for weakness, after all, if you look carefully, you can still see some clues.Tomorrow will be a big test, and even a little bit of exposure may not appear.

So Chen Manrou could only stay up all night, and the next morning, her eye circles were a little red, and her eyes were also blue. As for her cheeks, she looked a little pale even without applying white powder.

"Please inform me, Concubine Hui is here to greet the empress." Wei Le stepped forward to say something to the little maid, who took a look at Chen Manrou, turned around and went in.Not long after, two people came out.

The one in front is Wuyao, the grand maid of Yongshou Palace, who has not slept for about a night, and now her face is a little pale, and she salutes Chen Manrou with a forced smile on her face: "This servant has seen Concubine Hui, and concubine Hui My lady, please greet me."

"Miss Wuyao, please, how is the empress? Is there something wrong with your body?" Chen Manrou hurriedly helped Wuyao: "I didn't wake up until night yesterday, and then I found out about it. Immediately come to visit the empress, but at that time all the palaces have already been locked, so I didn't come to disturb the empress, how is the empress now?"

"Thank you, Concubine Hui, for your concern. There is nothing serious about your body, but the imperial doctor said that after all, it hurt your body. It is best to take care of it for a month or two." Wu Yao said worriedly: "Master, Your Majesty died yesterday." I've been in a coma all this time, I'm afraid I won't be able to see Concubine Hui today."

"It's okay, I can't go in even if the empress is awake at the moment. If it's because I work on the empress, it's a serious crime." Chen Manrou waved her hand quickly and asked, "Is the imperial doctor prescribing a doctor?" Did you get the prescription? Was it prescribed by Imperial Physician Cheng or Imperial Physician Li? The empress is weak at the moment, and Miss Wuyao usually prepares some soup, medicine and porridge for the empress. I often heard that in the past, Food tonic is not as good as medicine, you ask Li Yuyi to prescribe some medicinal food prescriptions, so that your mother can take it for a while longer."

"It was prescribed by Imperial Doctor Cheng and Imperial Doctor Li after discussing it. Thank you, Concubine Hui, for your concern. This servant will definitely take good care of Empress Empress." Wu Yao said gratefully, and Chen Manrou explained a few more words. She continued to chatter, but felt Bei Ting touched her arm, and saw Bei Ting gesturing out of the corner of her eyes, Chen Manrou hurriedly closed her mouth: "It's getting late, and the empress can't leave her side, Miss Wuyao hurry up!" Go in, I should go back too."

"The servant girl will not keep Concubine Hui, and send Concubine Hui off respectfully." Wu Yao hurriedly saluted, Chen Manrou waved his hand, turned around and got on the sedan chair, the servants moved quickly, carried Chen Manrou and walked in another direction.

"Little Dingzi's eyes are really good today, so we didn't run into Concubine Yang Gui." When they arrived at Zhongcui Palace, Chen Manrou walked into the room and said with a smile, while Xiao Dingzi was joking: "That's right, Xiao Dingzi But I saw the imperial concubine through a palace wall, thanks to the bowl of porridge you gave me yesterday!"

"You are a good talker. If a bowl of porridge really has such a big effect, I will drink seventeen or eight bowls a day and stare at the palace wall every day." Chen Manrou squinted at Xiao Dingzi, before the cup stopped. With the help of her, she sat down on the beauty couch.

Duiyue hurried over and served a bowl of clear soup first: "Madam, there is news from Ci'an Palace that Concubine Hu has just given birth to the third prince, and both mother and child are fine."

"Mother and child are safe?" Chen Manrou was startled for a moment. Isn't this Concubine Hu's luck too good?The last time I fell into the water, I couldn't get rid of the child. Now it's difficult to give birth, and the mother and child are safe. In fact, Concubine Hu is the heroine, right?

"Mother, Ci'an Palace killed two stable women." Duiyue said softly next to Chen Manrou's ear: last night, our staff only received the news this morning.It was said that after the incident with the Empress Empress, the Empress Dowager Ci'an immediately sent someone to replace the Wen Po in Concubine Hu's room. "

Chen Manrou frowned slightly. It seemed that the Empress Dowager Ci'an must have sensed something was wrong.This person is also from the harem, and he is still a winner. He was dazzled by the victory before, but now he was poured down by the Empress Dowager Ci Ning, and he regained some wisdom.

"Afterwards, the Empress Dowager Ci'an asked people to arrest the original Wenpo and the nanny, and sent people to interrogate them until night. After the interrogation, the two Wenpos were shot." Xiangyue explained the matter as simply as possible. After reading it again, as for how the Wen Po and the nanny who went in later rescued Concubine Hu, it was more difficult to find out. They only knew that the Empress Dowager Ci'an sent someone to take a 300-year-old ginseng.

"When did our people go out to inquire about the news?" Chen Manrou suddenly thought of this question, asked immediately, and quickly explained to Yueyue: "I just went out this morning, Madam, don't worry, Concubine Yang Gui and Concubine Shu, as well as the palaces All the concubines want to inquire about the news from the empress's side, our people are fishing in troubled waters, and it is relatively easy to find out the news from the Ci'an Palace."

"Well, you tell me to go on. From now on, don't go out casually, let alone inquire about the news casually. Concubine Hu has already given birth, so the next step should be to liquidate the queen's wrestling. Who is unlucky at the gunpoint."

As she spoke, she sighed: "You all pay attention to yourself, your empress is not a favorite concubine whose words are especially useful."

He responded to Yue, and hurried out to explain various things.

Chen Manrou thought about Concubine Hu, and couldn't help but sneered in her heart. Concubine Hu is not innocent, otherwise, she wouldn't have started giving birth yesterday.It's a pity that the child's birthday was not on the same day as his father's after all.

Moreover, maybe, he will be rejected by the emperor.The emperor was sad for Zhonggong, and later realized that your concubine Hu gave birth safely, so why not die?How to put it, the son-in-law is the most honorable and important.

Rubbing her forehead, Chen Manrou yawned. She didn't sleep all night last night, and now she is so sleepy that she should not care about those things outside. Anyway, no matter how windy or rainy it is, it will not blow to her for the time being.

Accidents happened to two pregnant women one after another, and as long as I was the only one left, as long as I didn't take the initiative to step out of the Zhongcui Palace, I think there shouldn't be any problems.What kind of conspiracy and calculation, as long as that time has passed, it will be considered solved.

Here Chen Manrou went to sleep with peace of mind, and the queen woke up slowly. Nanny An had been guarding by the bed the whole time. Seeing the queen open her eyes, she immediately shouted in surprise, "Your Majesty, you're awake!" ?”

The queen reached out and touched her stomach, and after a while she asked in a hoarse voice, "The child was not kept?"

"Your Majesty..." Nanny An burst into tears. After the queen was carried back that day, she passed out from the pain. Even the little prince passed out later on, and personnel did not know about it.However, the queen has already thought of it, needless to say, she already knows that the child cannot be kept.Asking this again at this moment, it can be seen how sad it is.

The queen's eyes were fixed on the bed curtain without moving, not to mention rolling her eyeballs. For a long time, she didn't even move her eyelids.Nanny An grabbed the Queen's hand, her voice choked up: "Your Majesty, I know that you are suffering, but you have to take care of your body, you still have the Eldest Princess and Eldest Prince to take care of."

The queen blinked slightly, and Nanny An hurriedly continued: "Your Majesty, you have to cheer up, that person can harm the little prince in your belly, and maybe one day he will do something to the eldest prince. He's still young, and he still needs your mother to plan for him. You have the heart to watch, has the First Prince been assassinated?"

That's right, there is also the eldest prince, and his own Wen'er, if he doesn't pull himself together, what will Wen'er do?Since the old witch can kill the child in her womb, she can definitely kill Wen'er.

After killing the small one, the big one will follow.I still have to protect Wen'er, so I only have Wen'er and An'er left.

"Where are Wen'er and An'er?" Thinking about it, the Queen immediately turned her head and asked, and Nanny An hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, don't worry, the slaves and servants put the Eldest Princess and His Royal Highness in the same room yesterday. Lan and Mengliu are guarding the Eldest Princess and the Eldest Prince in the side hall closely."

"Mommy, have all the guards and eunuchs been arrested?" The queen didn't even think about asking anyone to answer, she closed her eyes and thought for a while, then she knew that what happened before was not a dream.

She hated, hated the person who did it behind the scenes, and hated herself. She knew that she was a thorn in the side of others at the moment, but she couldn't be foolproof and didn't protect her child well.

That child can already move. When she touches her belly, she will move twice to express her happiness.When she speaks, she will listen quietly.When she is happy, she will be happy too.He comforts her when she is sad.

That little ball is in my stomach, connected with my blood, connected with my heart, and I still think about making him a small dress and sewing a small purse for him after a while.

Gone, all gone!

"That's the guard eunuch, and the nearby maids. They were all arrested and sent to the emperor for interrogation. In a few days, the emperor will definitely give you an answer. Don't worry, ma'am, the emperor is a good man." , he has always attached great importance to you, Madam."

"Mother, you are still young, you will have children in the future, let's give birth to seventeen or eight little princes." Nanny An nagged and comforted her, the queen smiled wryly, and there will be seventeen or eight more children. so what?Neither is this one.

"Ci Ning, let's wait and see." The queen's eyes flashed cruelty, you killed my son today, and I will make you pay back thousands of times in the future!
