"What does aunt mean?" Feng Shufei heard something about it.
"Concubine Yi is so favored. If she is promoted to the throne, it will not be a good thing for you." Empress Dowager Feng said softly: "One of An Baolin and the Wei family will have a male fetus. It would be better..."
She thought for a while and waved her hand: "You should go back first. The Ai family doesn't have to worry about you. You should be more sensible. Even if you can't have another child, you must take good care of the second prince. Don't let anything happen to him."
If the Feng family gave birth to a queen, it couldn't be in vain. She must at least protect the Feng family's wealth for the next three generations.
Even if Concubine Shu cannot go further, her children must not fall behind others.
On Shen Chuliu's side, a young eunuch from the palace who pleased her brought a bottle of blooming lotus flowers.
This lotus is half-opened, pink and white in color, and it is already August. Even if it is the latest lotus, it is probably the last few remaining.
Shen Chuliu couldn't help but appreciate it. It was just a farewell. Although such a thing was not expensive, it was really a heartfelt one.
It can be seen that she has been sleeping more recently than before, which is noticeable to others.
Asking Chisu to reward the eunuch, she smiled and said, "It's hard to find this for you. I like it very much."
The eunuch was extremely polite: "Such a flower, as soon as I see it, I will know that it is suitable for you, Shen Xiaoyi. You see, isn't it said that beautiful women deserve flowers, and you are the best match."
Shen Chuliu smiled and asked someone to send him out.
She also liked the flowers in the white porcelain vase: "As the saying goes, whether it's sunny or rainy in this palace depends on the mood of the Holy Emperor. Now, it's sunny in our Cuiyunxuan."
"That's what Xiaoyi said. We are not the most conspicuous, but we are still very good. I heard that Li Baolin's meal in Jiyunxuan was late several times. It was Concubine Feng Shu who scolded the people in the dining room. This is called It's a good idea to send him off." Zi Zhu said as if he was just chatting.
Shen Chuliu laughed when she said this. This girl is smart, but she is too responsible.
I gave her all my loyalty, but she was a bit like the crazy girl Xiren in Dream of Red Mansions.
"Although Li Baolin is just Baolin, she was pregnant with the emperor's heir. Although she had a miscarriage, there was something fishy about it. The emperor knew it all. The queen never treated her harshly. How could someone suddenly provide good meals?"
"Now that the Queen is pregnant, isn't it the business of Concubine Feng Shu to take charge of the palace? She made an omission on her own and went to discuss the dining room. It doesn't matter. Li Baolin is not a fool. How could he be won over so easily?"
"What Xiaoyi said is that Concubine Shu's methods are a bit superficial. But behind this is Empress Dowager Feng." Zi Zhu said.
"That has nothing to do with me. Anyway, you are not here to win over me." Shen Chuliu said.
"I'm just afraid. Now that Xiaoyi loves you more, I'm afraid that they will involve you in a fight with others." Zi Zhu said again.
Shen Chuliu nodded: "What you said makes sense. Just watch it first. You all should be careful and don't let anyone come to our place."
"Don't worry, Xiaoyi, the slaves will be careful." Zi Zhu said.
I thought something would happen, but something happened.
The next day, there was a rumor in the palace that the Queen's pregnancy was not stable, and a fortune teller had said that she would raise it with other children.
This is nothing. These days, it is a privilege for a concubine's child to grow up with his legitimate wife.
But then, it was reported that the Queen only wanted a child. As for the child's biological mother, she must be eliminated.
"These words are really heartbreaking. Don't you want them to have a good childbirth?" Yao Baolin whispered. Shen Chuliu shook his head: "The Queen would never have such an idea."
Yao Baolin also nodded: "Yes, if this isn't the intention of the Queen, who else? Hey... I'm afraid it's just in this palace. There's going to be a big fuss."
"We are all small people, and it is not the fault of others to make trouble for us." Shen Chuliu said.
"I am a nobody. Chu Liu, you are favored now. How can you say that you are a nobody?" Yao Baolin joked.
Shen Chuliu smiled shyly: "That's just average, far behind Li Baolin and others. Let alone compared with Li Jieyu and Yi Fei."
"Although it's not as good as Concubine Concubine, it's still good. After all, many people haven't been able to see the emperor yet."
The two people made a fuss and dispersed.
She was not distracted at first, but when all the concubines in the palace were called to Concubine Feng Shu's Fuyang Palace the next day, Shen Chuliu realized something was wrong.
The emperor should be in the previous dynasty at this time, not here. Besides, calling everyone there obviously meant something was wrong.
After everyone said hello, Qi Yixiu glanced at everyone: "Bring them here."
Shen Chuliu felt uneasy watching all this.
I saw a familiar eunuch being brought up. He had obviously been tortured for a round and was walking with a limp.
Shen Chuliu felt her heart skip a beat when she saw it. This eunuch was the same eunuch who gave her lotus flowers a few days ago!
There is no coincidence in the palace. Just think about it and you will know that this is a plot on her head.
Considering that her favor among the newcomers is not as good as that of Li Baolin or Lu Xiaoyi, it really shouldn't be believed that eunuchs have a discerning eye.
She watched calmly and saw the eunuch kneeling tremblingly: "This slave deserves to die..."
"Tell me again, where did these words come from in the palace?" Feng Shufei glanced at Shen Chuliu intentionally or unintentionally, but she was speaking to the eunuch below.
The eunuch said tremblingly: "Back to the emperor, back to Concubine Shu, yes... yes..."
"Say." Qi Yixiu frowned slightly.
He has always been kind to others, but once his face turns cold and serious, most people want to kneel down and beg for mercy.
"It's Shen Xiaoyi. It's Shen Xiaoyi who asked the slave to do it. A slave shouldn't be greedy for money..." The eunuch kowtowed as if he was pounding garlic.
Shen Chuliu sighed, after all, there was only one Shen Xiaoyi in the entire harem.
She stood up and went out: "Your Majesty, Concubine Shu, I have just arrived and I don't know what happened."
"Sister Xiaoyi is pretending well. Since you don't know, how could this slave have wronged you with his empty talk? He was tortured just now." Li Baolin smiled, completely malicious.
"Shen Xiaoyi, this slave deserves to die and shouldn't tell anyone. But the emperor asked, how dare this slave? This matter is not a big deal. Although you have spread rumors and hurt the queen, as long as you beg the emperor properly, it must not be a big deal. It's a big deal." The eunuch advised him with good intentions.
"I don't know. What evidence do you have to say that I slandered the Queen? Now the servants in this palace can talk to the master at will? Whether I have sinned or not is my business, but what do you have to persuade me? Just For this, you deserve to die." Shen Chuliu said angrily to the eunuch.
