"Your Majesty, I..."
"If you are not feeling well, please stop talking. You are carrying my child, so I naturally have to take care of you. After thinking about it, there is no one who can make you and me feel more at ease than the Xu family."
Su Jing looked like he was thinking about Concubine Xu, and no one could say a word to refute him. After all, every word he said was for Concubine Xu's good. In order to put Concubine Xu at ease, he also indirectly expressed his trust in the Xu family.
Concubine Xu could only thank the emperor for his grace. Su Jing gave the imperial physician some instructions for a long time before leaving. Looking at Su Jing's back, Concubine Xu's heart was in a tangled mess.
The emperor's reaction was beyond her imagination. She didn't know whether her goal was achieved or not as a result of this. She didn't even know whether the emperor's trust in Princess Jiaoyang would be destroyed after this incident.
However, Su Jing left in a hurry, and she didn't even know what he was thinking.
As a bedmate, a favorite concubine, and a woman pregnant with his child, Concubine Xu suddenly felt like a complete failure.
This feeling of frustration instantly turned into sadness, surging from my heart, and eventually turned into a sigh of helplessness and sadness.
Su Jing easily resolved Concubine Xu's troubles in the palace with just one sentence, and the matter didn't even reach A'man's ears.
However, after this incident, Concubine Xu continued to take action. Today she was allergic to the flowers in the palace, and tomorrow she fell because the stones under her feet were too slippery. Every time she attributed it to the problems of harem management, she was actually blaming A'man.
At the beginning, Su Jing would pretend to be nervous and go to take a look and ask, but later, he was simply too lazy to watch his tricks.
She was raised by the Xu family, and she didn't have much scheming in the first place. Now she can use limited means. There are many means, and you can tell what she is thinking at a glance.
What happened later was heard by Ah Man from time to time. At first Ah Man didn't care, but later he went straight to Su Jing.
"Father, I have never done these things." She was frank and honest. She felt that there was nothing to hide from her father.
"I know."
"That… "
"You know what's in her stomach, how could you possibly do anything?"
"Is that why you believe me?"
"Isn't this reason enough for me to believe you?"
"Even if I didn't have this, I wouldn't do anything to the baby in her belly. I wouldn't be that bad..."
"You are a child raised by me and your mother. I know what kind of person you are better than you do, so you don't need to explain."
These one sentence made Ah Man feel warm in her heart. Her father always believed in her. What she had worried about before, that she and her father would have a disagreement because of Concubine Xu, would never happen.
"As for Concubine Xu, are you just going to let her make such a fuss?"
"Let her do whatever she wants, and let's just pretend nothing happened."
"Then Father, should we give Concubine Xu some hope, for example, if there is a conflict between us?"
Su Jing looked at her cunning face and suddenly asked, "Have you thought clearly about what I asked you that day?"
"Almost clear."
"Then tell me about it."
"If the harem is not under my control but under the control of Concubine Xu, then it will be much easier for Concubine Xu to do many things."
"many things?"
"For example, what if Concubine Xu gave birth to a daughter? For example, the Xu family wanted to force the emperor to abdicate and wanted to bring someone into the palace."
After listening to Ah Man's words, Su Jing finally smiled, but there was more pain in his eyes.
Her daughter finally grew up to be the person he wanted her to be, but this was not what he and his wife wanted.
