"What do you think of what happened today?"
The emperor did not answer Su Peisheng's words, but asked.
When Su Peisheng heard the emperor's words, how should he respond?
"My slave, Yudun, was so anxious just now that he couldn't think clearly."
The emperor listened to Su Peisheng's words but didn't pay attention: "Those people can ambush into the palace and seem to want to assassinate me, but I am not stupid. Those people are so cruel that they try to assassinate the queen."
"No, if it hadn't happened suddenly, Concubine Qian wouldn't have given birth prematurely. Concubine Xi wouldn't have been injured, and Concubine Xi wouldn't have had fetal contractions."
Su Peisheng sighed and said, "I don't know if the Empress is having a bad year, so she always blames her for everything."
"Wherever he goes for her, he is clearly going for the throne and the emperor's heir."
Su Peisheng's words spoke to the emperor's heart.
"I am a little too tolerant towards them."
The emperor looked very unhappy: "Early tomorrow morning, go and call Lao Qi over."
"This slave understands."
When Su Peisheng saw the emperor lying down, he put out the candle and went out.
Nian Shilan woke up relatively late the next day.
When Nian Shilan got up, he beheaded Songzhi and said that the emperor had summoned Prince Guo to the royal study in the morning, but he has not come out yet.
"How is Concubine Qian doing?"
Nian Shilan ignored Prince Guo's affairs.
"Just now, I asked Xiao Lizi to go and see her,"
Songzhi knew that Nian Shilan would be thinking about Liu Yinyin when she got up, so she sent someone there early: "Concubine Qian woke up once in the night. When Xiao Lizi went there in the morning, Concubine Qian was still asleep. But listen to pity I mean, Concubine Qian is in pretty good condition."
"What about seventh brother? How is his condition?"
Nian Shilan nodded and asked after listening to Songzhi's words.
"Although Seventh Brother is born prematurely, the wet nurse means that Seventh Brother is already full term, so there won't be any big problems, as long as he takes good care of him in the first few months."
Hearing Songzhi say this, Nian Shilan was really relieved.
"I'll clean up later and let's go to Chengqian Palace."
Nian Shilan has not visited Zhen Huan since yesterday. Although she knows that she is fine, she still has to go and see her to feel relieved.
"Your Majesty, the imperial doctor has told you to rest. You were frightened again yesterday. Why don't you have a good rest in the palace today?"
Songzhi was still a little worried when she heard that Nian Shilan was going out.
Nian Shilan naturally knew what Songzhi was worried about.
"Don't worry, we are only going to Chengqian Palace and won't stay too long. After all, Concubine Xi also needs to rest now, so I will come back after a short while."
When Nian Shilan arrived at Chengqian Palace, Shen Meizhuang was already there.
"Greetings to the Queen."
When Shen Meizhuang saw Nian Shilan coming in, he quickly stood up and saluted.
When Zhen Huan saw Nian Shilan coming in, she turned pale and said, "I'm so rude, I can't get up to pay my respects to the empress."
"Just lie down and take a good rest."
Nian Shilan reached out to pull Shen Meizhuang up while talking to him: "You are now a hero of our Qing Dynasty."
"Thank you, ma'am."
Shen Meizhuang stood up and said with a smile: "I heard that your Majesty was pregnant, and I was thinking of going to Yikun Palace to see your Majesty later, but I never thought that your Majesty would come first."
"I was always thinking about Concubine Xi, so I came here after having breakfast. But after just one look, I am always worried."
Nian Shilan walked to Zhen Huan's bed as he spoke and said, "If not for too many things that happened last night, and I had fetal contractions again, I would have come here last night."
Zhen Huan smiled weakly: "It was so dangerous last night. It's lucky that the empress only had fetal contractions. At that time, I was afraid that the assassins would stab the empress. Fortunately, there was no danger. However, I didn't do anything early in the morning. I heard Liu Zhu say that Concubine Qian gave birth to her seventh brother safely, so she is really happy."
"Yes, but Concubine Qian suddenly had a miscarriage, and was disturbed by the fetal gas. She fainted several times during the birth and almost died. I'm afraid it will be even harder to get pregnant again in the future."
Nian Shilan shook his head and said, "Fortunately, I saved my life."
"Having a child is inherently dangerous. We all have experienced it and we all understand."
Shen Meizhuang said empathetically: "Now that the seventh elder brother is premature, Concubine Qian is even more distressed."
"Yes, but the wet nurse also said that Brother Seven is already full term. Although he was born prematurely, it will not affect anything. Just take good care of him."
After Nian Shilan finished speaking, he looked at Zhen Huan and said: "Okay, let's not talk about her anymore. Let's talk about you. You need to have a good rest next. All etiquette will be waived. Why don't you go first?" Send it to me, don't worry about anything."
"Thank you for your consideration, but there is no need. Luyue can stay in Chengqian Palace. My concubine looks at Luyue and feels better."
Listening to Nian Shilan's words, Zhen Huan knew that Nian Shilan wanted to help her, but she still didn't want her daughter to leave her side. Fortunately, Nian Shilan didn't insist.
"I heard that the emperor has sent Prince Guo to the imperial study. I'm afraid he will start investigating what happened last night."
Nian Shilan deliberately talked about Prince Guo. She wanted to know Zhen Huan's attitude.
But unexpectedly, when Zhen Huan heard about Prince Guo, her expression did not change, but she had some doubts.
"Didn't I hear that Prince Guo doesn't participate in government affairs? Your Majesty sent Prince Guo to him. What can you find out?"
"I don't know about this."
Nian Shilan really didn't know: "When the assassin broke in last night, Prince Guo was not at the banquet, but when the Queen Mother came later, he came with the Queen Mother."
"Prince Guo has always been unruly."
Shen Meizhuang answered.
