Huan Yehe pondered for a while and said: "This is hard to say! Let me tell the truth: This is the time to fight for the fate of the country. Because of the current situation, no one can tell what the outcome will be? I can only say , since the founding of the Rong family, even though he is so stupid now, he has not done many things that are outrageous, Fuzuo would not have declined so quickly... Ruru should not succeed."
"I think it's unlikely to succeed." Sheng Weiqiao sighed, "After all, Ruru only has a small number of people, and they may be a first-class big family on the grassland. But with our Damu's vast territory and large population, even if they If the fight is over, where can I see it?"
She didn't want to talk about such things that she couldn't do anything about. She breathed out and mentioned the previous words to Huan Yehe, "I have already written the letter to the queen you mentioned before and brought it here this time. But I have to trouble you to deliver it. In the hands of the queen... By the way, this method can still be used now, right?"
"The queen is still a queen, of course it can be used." Huan Yehe nodded, took the letter she handed over, put it into his sleeve, and said, "Speaking of this matter, I have something to tell you: I just received it The news from Chang'an is that Meng Guiyu has just announced the good news that Shu Zhaoyi is pregnant, and the imperial doctor is 90% sure that it is a boy!"
Sheng Weiqiao's eyes widened in surprise: "Shu Zhaoyi is pregnant?! She can actually give birth?!"
"There are not just one or two people who think so." Huan Yehe was not surprised by her reaction. "It is said that the Queen Mother didn't believe it at first, but she only confirmed it after she summoned the imperial doctor who specialized in serving her. ! Originally, the Queen Mother had a deep grudge with the Shu sisters. You know this. Now that the imperial concubine is dead, although Zhaoyi has not fallen out of favor, the emperor's prestige has also fallen into decline after this death! On the contrary, Meng Guiyu's reputation is increasing day by day. It's grand, it's a great time for the Queen Mother to deal with Shu Zhaoyi!"
"But because she is pregnant, and considering her grandson's face, not only can't do anything to her, but it is said that she even sent many rare and nutritious things to Leyi Palace, lest this old woman might become pregnant with great difficulty. , something went wrong, causing the emperor to lose his heir again!"
Sheng Weiqiao sighed: "I'm afraid the Queen Mother is wronged!"
"There's nothing we can do about it. Who says the emperor has no children?" Huan Yehe said leisurely, "But the Queen Mother only has to endure it for a few days. She doesn't really value Shu Zhaoyi. In the final analysis, it's for the sake of the heir. Just wait until October She is pregnant and Shu Zhaoyi gives birth to the prince. She will be of no use anymore. What will be done with her then? How about the Queen Mother? After all, the Queen Mother is here, and the little prince is not afraid of having no one to raise him! "
"Speaking of it, it's a coincidence that Shu Zhaoyi was pregnant this time!" Sheng Weiqiao mused, "If I hadn't been pregnant earlier, I wouldn't have been pregnant later, but now I'm pregnant... Otherwise, the Meng family had already planned to give the emperor an heir, so why not I gave Concubine Meng to Prince Guangling and gave birth to male heirs. Not to mention that the one who is pregnant now is Shu Zhaoyi, who has always been at odds with the Queen Mother. Even if she is the Queen, it may not be a good thing!"
"But now Ruru is pressing forward step by step, and Chang'an is in turmoil... Zhaoyi is happy now, which can be somewhat inspiring."
"Meng Guiyu had no confidence in stopping Ruru in the first place, but now that his eyes are set on the bone, Zhaoyi will not let anything happen to this baby."
"Originally, the emperor had no children. Many people said that this was because Rong's blessings and fortunes were declining." Huan Ye nodded in agreement, "Now that the emperor is over fifty years old, the favored Zhaoyi finally has something to show for it... This proves it. , Fuzuo is still deep, and there was emptiness under my knees before, but the time has not come yet.”
She sighed when she said this, "But this kind of words are actually just self-comfort... How much encouragement can a mere child, or a fetus that has not yet landed, inspire?"
Both of them felt anxious when they thought about Damu's future, but Queen Meng, who was in Chang'an Palace, was almost scared to death!
During this time, Lu Yin and Lu Xin, who had been waiting closely for her, were also very panicked: "Could it be because of improper diet recently? I heard that eating cold and spicy food will also cause delay! And there is also fatigue and so on. …”
No wonder they were going crazy, because Queen Meng's little day was already nearly ten days late!
This has never happened before to her!
No matter how lucky the queen is, she has to consider a possibility at this moment: she is pregnant!
"My diet has always been light, and I have stopped eating ice bowls this season. Where can I find something cold?" The queen trembled slightly as she picked up the rose water in front of her, but she couldn't drink it, so she just murmured. , "As for being tired... I stay here all day long now, occasionally visiting my aunt, and occasionally going to Leyi Palace to show off. Even though I have the power of the Sixth Palace, I don't have much to worry about at the moment. , what kind of fatigue method can you use?"
In this case, it's best to have a doctor take a look at it, and then you'll know whether it's an accident or something really happened.
The problem is that Queen Meng is not Queen Mother Meng who has been in the palace for decades. She has been suppressed by the Shu sisters in the past two years and has not had time to form her own team in the palace, so there is no reliable imperial physician.
Nowadays, if you have other physical discomforts, it is easy to call the imperial doctor.
This seems to be a happy event, but where can I invite people to come and see it
After all, although Empress Dowager Meng really wanted her to be pregnant, she was counting on her to be pregnant with Emperor Xuan Jing's child, not anyone else!
"Empress, how about this?" Xianyin thought for a while and whispered, "Didn't the Empress Dowager previously advise you to follow the example of Peng Bin and the others and serve Your Majesty? We will follow the Empress Dowager's wishes. Please excuse me. Go and spend the night in His Majesty's chamber... Of course, it's just one night. Your Majesty is very drunk at most times of the day! How can you know what happened when you are drunk? "
"Let's prepare in advance and arrange it for him!"
"When you come out the next day, you said you want to remember the history of Tong... How can you still doubt it if you are a lieutenant?"
"Wait until next month, and then we can summon the imperial doctor openly..."
Empress Meng interrupted distractedly: "The question is, if it is really there, how long has it been there? The imperial doctor will be able to see it!"
Xuyin was stunned, looked at each other with Luxin, hesitated for a while, and whispered: "Or... Is this slave trying to find a way to get a bowl of abortion pills?"
Although they know that this child belongs to Gongsun Xi, Luyin and Luixin actually don't care very much. After all, Gongsunxi is still young. If this child is gone, at worst, he will have a good relationship with Queen Meng in the future; and according to their private opinions The idea is that in troubled times, marriage is difficult to determine. Whether Gongsun Xi will get together with Queen Meng in the future is still a question. If the two of them don't get married in the end and have no children, it will be less involved.
It's just that Queen Meng turned the glass cup in her hand, but she couldn't make up her mind for a long time.
After a while, she sighed: "How can abortion pills be so easy to obtain? This is the palace! If the whereabouts are exposed, it may be someone else's fault... Don't make any move, let me think about it." !”
She thought about it for several days and finally decided, "I want to tell Meng Guiyu about this!"
Seeing that Luyin and Luixin immediately changed their expressions, they hurriedly explained, "I'm not betraying you and Ah Xi! I will tell Meng Guiyu that this child was in the palace before I was rescued by you from the imperial city. Because the rebel king Rong Jing withdrew the guards of Wangchun Palace, only Chunlai refused to leave, and some of the guards were so bold... Then you have killed the guard, and you thought that this matter would just go away, and your majesties would not summon me, right? So... that’s why I didn’t say it out loud!”
His voice lowered, "Meng Guiyu has no respect for His Majesty. I may not be useless to him at this moment. He will probably not expose me, but will help me hide it, and even... make mistakes!"
The queen had obviously been thinking about it over and over in the past two days. Her words were a little stumbling at first, but she became more and more fluent later on, "Now that Ruru has invaded, Damu's situation is very bad! Meng Guiyu said it two days ago The pregnancy of the Shu family’s maid has just been announced, and the purpose is to prove that the Rong family has not declined, and God is still on Damu’s side!”
"If this eye is connected to the bone, and I, the queen, have three strengths and two weaknesses, won't this good news be overshadowed?"
"On the contrary, I, the Queen, am also happy, and I am pregnant with His Majesty's flesh and blood. The royal heirs are promising to be prosperous. Isn't it more inspiring than Zhaoyi alone?!"
"The most important thing is that the good boy I am raising in the palace now does not have a deep blood relationship with Meng Guiyu."
"He doesn't have deep feelings for this child, and he actually doesn't have much trust!"
"It's just to get a young master who can be controlled by him!"
"If my child happens to be a boy when he is born, wouldn't he be more suitable than a good boy?"
"In terms of blood relationship, he is his nephew. In terms of pros and cons, I have such a handle in his hands... In the future, he will have to obey his advice, but it is much better than asking me to raise a child who has little relationship with me!"
The queen said this in one breath, narrowed her eyes and said, "This is much better than trying to figure it out on our own and risking being caught by others to get some abortion pills, or being discovered by the imperial doctor... It's much better! "
Xiyin frowned and said: "Mother, although what you said makes sense. But have you ever thought about it? Even if Meng Guiyu doesn't know who the biological father of this child is, he knows that he is your direct blood! Then after the child lands, you It also means that he has a handle in his hands. How can he be free to act freely from now on? Not only you, but also the county king, even if you have no choice but to put it in a trap from now on! "
He added, "Actually, the empress is still young, and so is Ah Xi."
The implication was that Queen Meng was asked to abort the child.
After all, Luyin and Luxin did not have 100% trust in the queen. Once the queen gave birth to a child and was controlled by Meng Guiyu, there was no way that they would sell Gongsun Xi, Dong Liang and so on because of the child.
Lu Xin thought so too, and reminded the queen: "Of course we don't have this kind of abortion, but if you have one, you may not have it!"
The Queen's decision that she finally came up with was opposed by them together. At this moment, her face was not very good. After hearing this, she asked listlessly: "Who?"
"Shu Zhaoyi!" Lu Xin said, "The Shu sisters were so arrogant and domineering before. Isn't it because of them that the golden beauties were given abortion pills by His Majesty himself? Since they have always been jealous and did not allow their concubines to continue heirs for His Majesty, then Could it be that there are such harmful things hidden in the palace? Even if not, she still has some background in the palace, and it is much more convenient than us to get abortion pills!"
"Anyway, since she asked Xianyin to send you a message about Jinyin Palace, she already has your handle. Now she wants something from you... Why not ask her to get you some medicine?"
Queen Meng was unwilling to have an abortion. After being hesitant at first, she thought more and more clearly in the past two days that her intention was to keep the child.
It's not like she didn't know the current situation, leaving a child would cause a lot of trouble.
But for the queen, who has grown up alone and has never received a wholehearted affection from any relative, it is really difficult to let go of a child with blood ties, regardless of gender.
Especially, the child's biological father was someone she liked and was obsessed with, and was willing to go into danger for him.
How could she bear this
However, now that Luyin and Luxin have the same attitude, she is thinking, "If I insist on not agreeing, they may not be able to screw me on the surface, but they may not be able to manipulate me in private... I have to think of a way!"
