Chapter 36 Surprise
After the celebration banquet, the emperor was going to go to the queen, but what happened today really made the emperor not want to see the queen at all for a while.
The emperor thought to himself that he has not been to Chunfei for many days, and today he just has time to go and see how Chunfei is doing.
But before entering, I heard Concubine Chun coughing. The cough was serious. The emperor said a few words of concern at the door and left.
While walking on the road, the eunuch on the side held a lamp for the emperor. The eunuch walked behind the emperor. As he walked, the emperor said: "This pure concubine is so sick, can she still take care of the children?"
"I heard from my mother earlier that the child born from Ning Cai should be placed with Concubine Chun."
The eunuch listened to the emperor's words, with his head lowered and a smile on his face, he replied with experience: " How could this slave know?"
After hearing the humble words of the personal eunuch, the emperor stopped in his steps, glanced sideways at the little eunuch, and said with a smile on his face: "If you want to say something, Then I said, I don’t blame you.”
The emperor’s words have reached this point. It would be meaningless if the little eunuch hides it anymore. Serving the emperor is easy to lose his head. .
But this fortune is in danger, and he can't care about anything in his head for a while. As long as he can finish the things assigned by the noble, even if he leaves the Yangxin Palace in the future, there are other places to go. go.
"Mother Chun Fei raised up the Fourth Prince with one hand, so she is naturally experienced."
"But Concubine Chun Concubine's health is not as good as before. If she is asked to work so hard to take care of a child from scratch."
"It's really not appropriate."
As soon as the little eunuch said this, the emperor began to think about it. What he said was true. This newly born child is not easy to take care of. Besides, this newborn child is weak and it would be bad if he is infected with tuberculosis.
The emperor looked at the garden not far away. The moonlight was reflected in the water and the breeze was blowing gently, but he was a little worried.
If this child is not allowed to be raised by pure concubine, then who will be allowed to raise it? This issue is indeed one that needs to be dealt with.
“Concubine Jia has just given birth to a child, and I’m afraid she won’t be able to take care of her own child.”
“She has no time there.”
“The Queen is in charge. I have to watch the prince's homework and have no energy."
"As you said, pure concubine is not a good choice."
The emperor thought about several suitable concubines, but he never found a suitable candidate, which made him somewhat worried.
"Tell me, who do you think is more suitable?"
The emperor couldn't think of it, so he threw the question to the little eunuch holding the lamp. The little eunuch listened to the emperor's words, He then said: "I am a stupid servant, who knows who is suitable to raise Ning Cairen's child."
"But this child is a prince, so the mother's status cannot be too low."
The little eunuch didn't say it directly, but his meaning was already very clear. After counting, the most suitable person to raise a child is Concubine Yun.
Concubine Yun Guifei has no children and is free all day long. Moreover, she is deeply loved by the Queen Mother. If Ning Cairen's child can be raised in her name, the Queen Mother will definitely have no problem with it.
Ning Cairen can't say anything. Besides, Concubine Yun is from a good background and is very generous. There is no conflict with Ning Cairen.
Actually, the emperor knew all about the things in the harem, but he was too lazy to take care of them. He was very busy every day and had no time to take care of the palace battles.
If these women are willing to fight, then let them fight. As long as it's not too much, it doesn't matter. Even if the queen doesn't get involved, he won't get involved. Since the right to control the imperial palace has been given to the queen, all affairs in the harem will be under the queen's control.
"Go to Concubine Yun." The emperor said. After hearing the words, the little eunuch responded: "Okay."
Concubine Yun just returned to her palace and learned that Ning Cairen had given birth. Cui Xiu told her before that he wanted her to take custody of the child. As for why, she would tell her later.
Concubine Yun Gui believes in Cui Xiu. She naturally has her own reasons for doing this. When the time is right, Cui Xiu will naturally say it.
While Concubine Yun was thinking, the sound of announcement interrupted her thoughts. She looked out the window, and then the emperor came in.
"I am here to see the emperor." Concubine Yun Guifei saluted to the emperor, thinking in her heart, why did the emperor want to come to her today?
Aren't you going to the Queen's tonight? Why didn't you go? Could it be because of the celebration banquet just now?
"Get up and sit down." The emperor was not polite to Concubine Yun, and they sat face to face at the round table.
"You have been in the palace for many years and you still have no heirs. Do you have any complaints in your heart?" The emperor held the tea cup with one hand and took a sip of tea.
Concubine Yun Guifei heard the emperor's words without any sign of panic. She also took a sip of tea and said: "I don't have any complaints, but I do have self-blame."
"I, my concubine, come in. After many years in the palace, I have not given birth to a son or a daughter for Your Majesty. It is really my concubine’s fault. ”
Concubine Yun Gui's words played into the emperor's hands. Didn't the emperor know that this was not an inconsiderate act of Concubine Yun Gui.
In the early years, he deliberately guarded against Concubine Yun Guifei because the Xu Guogong Mansion behind her was feared.
So he sent someone to prepare medicine for Concubine Yun Gui. After drinking the medicine, she could not conceive so easily, so until now, Concubine Yun Gui has not had a child of her own.
Even the newcomer from Ningcai has a child. She has become a royal concubine, but has no children. How can this not be heartbreaking.
Thinking of this, the emperor felt even more guilty.
"No, it's not that you are careless, it's that I was careless."
"Now, do you want a child?"
The emperor said, putting the cup in his hand on the table, his eyes Guang looked at Concubine Yun. When Concubine Yun heard this, her eyes steadied and she thought, she didn't want her to have a baby before, but now she wants her to have one again after a sudden sentence?
Why does Lao Deng have so many things going on?
Concubine Yun Gui lowered her eyes, with a slight smile on her face, and her smile showed some casual kindness from time to time. These emotions were captured in the emperor's eyes one by one.
The emperor naturally knew that Concubine Yun was shy, so he did not tell her.
"We are a couple. If you want a child, I will naturally satisfy you."
A slight smile appeared on the emperor's face, and his eyes turned to Concubine Yun. He became gentle, as if he remembered something.
When Concubine Yun Gui heard what the emperor said, she subconsciously clenched the corners of her clothes with her hands on her legs, thinking to herself, hahaha, who is satisfying whom?
The emperor was not ashamed to say this at all. If he wanted her to sleep with him, just say so. It was too pretentious to do this.
Just when Concubine Yun was secretly complaining, the emperor said: "You can keep Ning Cai's child under your knees."
"What do you think?"
