Traitor Concubine Growth Manual

Chapter 145

The carriage drove steadily towards the Princess Mansion. Gu Chushi in the carriage closed his eyes for a long time before he calmly said, "I would like to ask my son-in-law to find a good place for me. I want... to give Nan'er a quiet place to stay." place."

Qin Shu said softly: "If you are the prince's sweetheart, why don't you ask the emperor for orders and be buried in the imperial tomb? After a hundred years, the prince will always have a companion."

Gu Chushi's eyes were silent, deep and cold, and he opened them slowly, silently looking at the familiar scenery outside the window, and finally smiled: "She won't love that kind of place, it's like a cage ,no freedom."

She has lived in that small courtyard all her life, because of her identity, and even more because of his selfishness, now that she is dead, how can he lock her up with his love?
If she is not free physically and mentally, should her soul be imprisoned after death?
The moment he returned to the city, he asked one of his confidants to go to the Princess Mansion to seek Qin Shu's help. They were still allies, even though they each had their own ideas, on the surface they were still in a cooperative relationship.

Qin Shu really came to rescue him, and brought Nan'er back for him, leaving his whole body.

When Gu Chushi stepped into the princess mansion, Qingyang was called back to the room by Qin Shu, and there were only two big men left in the main hall.

Holding tea in his hands, Qin Shu asked him what was going on at the border. Gu Chushi said flatly: "The emperor was seriously injured and unconscious. It seems that he will not be able to recover for a few days."

He had seen with his own eyes how serious the arrow injury was, and he could also see the attitude of the imperial physician. Now that the emperor can't wake up for a day, he can't eat for a day. Unable to bear it, he starved to death.

Gu Chushi finally made a request, hoping that Qin Shu could lend him troops. He wanted to get rid of Mo Nineteen's cancer first, and then return to the border... Try to hurry before the emperor dies, because in time to go back, he There is enough time to make outstanding military exploits, and then return to Beijing to fight for the throne.

Qin Shu raised his eyebrows and said in surprise: "Borrowing soldiers? The prince also knows that I am just a son-in-law. Even though I have made military exploits before and was named the young supervisor of Si Tianjian, I am a civil servant after all. How can I use soldiers?"

The tea cup knocked on the table and made a crisp sound. Gu Chushi said lightly: "You and I know what the son-in-law did when he was ordered to rescue the disaster in Sichuan. Since we are allies, I only hope that you can Open the skylight and tell the truth, if he takes the position of the Japanese king, you will not lose your benefits."

Qin Shu's smile gradually deepened, and he raised his head to look at him with a smile on his face: "My lord is really powerful. The land of Shu is so far away from the capital, and you have inquired about the matter clearly. It seems that the throne is firmly in your hands. It's in your hand."

When there was a flood in Shu, it was thanks to the useless eldest son of the Zhao family that made the place a mess, but Qin Shu happened to appear at this time.

Natural disasters and man-made disasters, people panic, it is the time when people are panic, but he appeared there calmly, he did not panic, he personally led people to rescue and rescue disasters, and brought the court's salary to help the people, calming down the people of Shu like a god. flustered.

Isn't this the best time to win people's hearts?

Qin Shu put down his cup unhurriedly, and said calmly: "It's a pity that the capital is too small, and there are too many eyeliners. Even if I have soldiers and horses in hand, it is difficult for me to bring people under the eyes of the emperor. I am really sorry. This favor...I'm afraid I won't be able to help the prince."

How could Gu Chushi not know that he was prevaricating?Since he has the courage and ability to buy people's hearts, it is impossible to let his troops be far away in the land of Shu.His eyes were cold and sharp, but he said calmly: "My son-in-law and I know whether this can be of help. I hope you will think it over carefully and don't rush to make a decision."

Qin Shu smiled and said, "I think about it very clearly, I really can't help you with this."

He has been taking care of himself all the time, his expression is neither hasty nor impatient, and his attitude of drinking tea is very leisurely.

Gu Chushi finally lost his patience, slowly raised his eyes to stare at him, and said word by word: "Well, I won't play around with the son-in-law anymore. The soldiers and horses are not borrowed in vain, but at a price."

"cost?"

Gu Chushi laughed, and suddenly changed the topic: "I don't know if the son-in-law has noticed that the Qingyang princess's appetite is not good recently? I'm afraid it's because of a medical condition, but have you asked the doctor in the house to take a look for her?"

Qin Shu was startled, and then his eyes became dark: "What does the prince... mean?"

"It's better for the son-in-law to let someone take a look for the princess first, and all the reasons will naturally come to light." Gu Chushi's smile was meaningful.

Qin Shu did as he did, and called the doctor in the mansion to diagnose Qingyang's pulse, but the doctor shook like chaff and fell to his knees with a plop. While tremblingly begging for his life, he said in a trembling voice that Qingyang had been ill for three months. pregnant.

Qin Shu's face changed suddenly, and he looked back at Gu Chushi, who stood there firmly, and only said three words: "It's not me."

Qing Yang's face also turned pale, and he could only kneel in front of Qin Shu and beg him: "Father, I... I didn't do it on purpose, he said he would marry me, I... I'll go find him right now.... "

Qin Shu stepped back coldly, not letting her pull his hem, and only asked, "Whose child is it?"

Qingyang hesitated and refused to speak, and finally looked at Gu Chushi again.

Gu Chushi answered his questions with a brisk tone: "It's the Minister of the Ministry of War, and the Tanhua Lang from the year before last, Shu Chengen."

As soon as these words came out, Qing Yang's expression suddenly changed, and he looked up at Gu Chushi in shock: "You... how do you know?"

He naturally knew, because Shu Chengen was his man at all, if he hadn't been instructed by him, how could he approach such a savage princess that the famous nobles in the capital would not want to associate with?

Qing Yang couldn't guess it, but Qin Shu thought it through in an instant. Shu Chengen is not only the Minister of the Ministry of War, nor the Tanhua Lang from the previous year, but also a man with a family and a wife!
He coldly reprimanded Qingyang: "Go back to the room!"

Qingyang was still begging him: "Father, he said he would marry me back home, please don't embarrass him, let me talk to him—"

"Go back to the room, don't you understand me?" Qin Shu said word by word, his eyes as cold as iron, "Go and talk to him? What's the use of talking? He will abandon his wife and marry you as the first wife? Or are you going to marry him as a princess as a concubine?"

Qingyang's face turned pale, and he was still arguing vigorously: "But the person he loves is me—"

"Love?" Qin Shu looked at her with a smile as if he had heard some big joke, "He told you this? Qingyang, do you read too many dramas or listen to too many folk tales? Even if this is the case, it is not so stupid. Li Jia also swore at the beginning that he loved Du Shiniang deeply, what happened? Tang Xuanzong also said that he loved Concubine Yang wholeheartedly, what happened?"

His eyes suddenly sank: "Go back to the room, don't make me say it a second time!"

Finally, only he and Gu Chushi were left in the room.

There was a mocking smile on Gu Chushi's lips: "How can this be good? The princess is pregnant, and Mr. Shu is a family man. Based on what this king knows about him, I'm afraid it won't be so. Abandoning the wretched wife and marrying the princess as the wife is the right thing."

His wishful thinking was sound, and he had already expected that Qin Shu would have a counterattack one day, so he laid the groundwork early and took his daughter hostage.

Unfortunately……

It's a pity that Qin Shu also suddenly laughed, the heaviness on his face was gone, and he looked at Gu Chushi leisurely instead: "Even if the facts are the same as what the prince said, so what? The prince has watched a good show. It's a good game, but it's a pity that the pieces on the board are always disobedient, Mo Shijiu is like this, and so am I."

Gu Chushi's smile froze: "Don't you care about your daughter?"

"My daughter?" Qin Shu smiled softly and beautifully. When he looked at Gu Chu with pity this time, there was a strange brilliance in his eyes. I will sit idly by and ignore you, so I have no choice but to borrow troops from you, but it's a pity... the prince missed one point after all his calculations, and that is that Qingyang is not my biological daughter at all."

This time, Gu Chushi's face turned completely pale.

Qin Shu continued to speak softly: "At the beginning, the eldest princess was given wine mixed with drugs by me on the wedding night. From the beginning to the end, we never consummated the marriage at all. But she didn't know that at that time she was already pregnant with Zhuo Zhuo. Ding'an's child, it's a pity that even the current emperor doesn't know about this matter, I'm really sorry, it was a waste of time for the prince, and now it's finally miscalculated."

The snow outside the Great Wall is always much heavier than that in Kyoto. The snow on the ground is so thick that it is impossible to step on it after it freezes. The severe cold weather is unbearable for the soldiers.

The battle was fought for too long, and it seemed that victory was about to be won, but the emperor fell, so the battle was shelved for a while, and the strange thing is that the enemy did not take advantage of the victory to pursue it.

On the day that Prince Gong returned to the border, the capital also encountered the heaviest snow this winter. The snowflakes fell down like goose feathers, as if it indicated that the coming year would be a good harvest year.

On this day, three major events took place.

First, Prince Gong, who left the border for no reason and disappeared, finally returned to the battlefield. Only then did the army learn that he was ambushed by the enemy on the way back from the victory that day, and all twenty personal guards died. While the enemy army was waiting for the general's instructions, they waited for an opportunity to escape, but unfortunately they were also hit by the sword.

The imperial doctor saw it for him, although the wound was deep, but fortunately it was not fatal, after resting, he will recover within ten days and half a month.

Second, the empress, who was pregnant for ten months, finally woke up in the middle of the night in labor pains. While lifting the quilt to see the amniotic fluid traces on the bed sheet, she calmly called Dongyi Hanzhi to the imperial hospital to ask her stable wife and imperial physician.

The imperial physician had already expected that it would probably be these days, so there were always people on duty in the imperial hospital. Now when she heard the news, Wen Po, the imperial physician and the female doctors rushed to Yong'an Palace together, all of them looked nervous, but He secretly breathed a sigh of relief, at least he was looking forward to this day safely.

Both Rong Zhen and Zhao Ronghua came to Yong'an Palace, and even the queen mother (former queen) who had been ignoring the trivial matters of the harem also came.When Chu Yan saw them, her expression was very calm, she just smiled and said, "My son is fine, there is no need to worry. The delivery room is not very pretty, please ask mother, stepmother and concubine to wait in the main hall, everything will go smoothly."

The three women were all taken aback. They had only heard of visiting people comforting those who gave birth before. Where have they seen today's battle?This weak and weak queen actually comforted them not to worry, even though the amniotic fluid was broken, her expression was still so calm and calm... It was really weird.

What's even more ridiculous is that the three of them waited in the hall for a long time, but they didn't hear any movement. The footsteps of the maids and eunuchs carrying the basin to change the water kept ringing, but there was no movement in the delivery room. , The pregnant woman didn't say a word, it really made people sweat.

Rong Zhen stopped a medical woman who came out with a blood basin: "How is the queen?"

The doctor girl said in detail, it turned out that the queen had someone give her a clean handkerchief, and she was biting the handkerchief tightly, giving birth without saying a word, so she didn't make any sound at all.

Rong Zhen was sweating profusely feeling the pain under her body, the feeling that was about to tear her apart came too fast and too violently, this was a kind of pain she had never experienced before.

But it was also because of this that she had a first-hand experience of what it was like to be a mother.

It was a piece of flesh that fell from her body, and it was born after her ten months of pregnancy. This is probably the chill that blood is thicker than water and flesh and blood are connected.

She didn't cry not because she didn't hurt, nor because she wanted to be brave, but because she knew clearly that it was useless for her to cry when Gu Qi wasn't here.

Instead of wasting energy crying hysterically, it is better to save energy and try to give birth to the child.

Fortunately, her delivery went very smoothly. After only half a day, the cry of the baby finally came from the delivery room.The three women in the hall rushed to the delivery room together, and Mrs. Wen opened the door with a smile on her face: "Thank God, the empress gave birth to a little prince!"

Chu Yan closed her eyes with relief, and fell into a sleep after exhaustion.

At the same time, the third news finally reached the palace: the emperor died in the winter of the 27th year of the Xuan Dynasty.
