"Your Majesty..." Madam Yang, who was a Buddhist, wanted to persuade him, saying that Buddhists should not be offended, but was stopped by Concubine Shu.

Don’t offend His Majesty even if you offend Buddha.

[Hahahaha, my Aye is so handsome! Love you~ Heart~]

Bei Jingchu stretched out her short little hand and crossed her thumb and index finger to make a heart shape.

The emperor subconsciously imitated and stretched out two fingers. When he realized what he was doing, his face turned dark instantly.

In the waiting imperial study, one could hear a pin drop, and only the baby's milky humming could be heard.

Madam Yang knelt on the ground, and the coldness spread to her knees.

But the emperor did not tell her to get up, and Madam Yang did not dare to get up by herself, so she had to wink at Concubine Shu.

Shufei usually didn't dare to speak rashly, but she touched her belly and the presence of the child gave her courage.

"Your Majesty, my mother hasn't gotten up yet."

"I know."

The emperor, who was busy reviewing memorials one by one, answered calmly.

Shufei was suddenly deflated and felt a little aggrieved.

Doesn't she know why His Majesty is targeting her mother? Isn't it because he thinks what her mother said is not good for the eldest princess?

It was obviously the eldest princess who killed her child first.

......

The two of them spent their days like years, looking forward to the arrival of the eminent monk they had talked about.

As a result, the "high monk" knelt down tremblingly as soon as he came in, and kowtowed stutteringly: "Your humble servant, your humble servant pays homage to... pays homage to Your Majesty."

[Oh my god~ you are not a professional monk~]

Indeed, the monk was shaking like a sieve, without any demeanor of a great Taoist master.

"From what you said, my eldest princess will harm my unborn heir?"

After saying this, the monk kneeling below had an ugly expression, as if he was about to cry.

"This... this poor monk... is not the case. I, the humble man, saw that this lady was dressed richly and her daughter also married into a wealthy family."

"Every rich family has two concubines and two children. I just mentioned one at random."

"I just wanted to swindle some money, thinking they would come to me with the money and ask me to do something about it."

"Who knew these two crazy people... No, who knew that two nobles would want to kill people!"

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Yang's eyes rolled back and she almost fainted.

Eunuch Jiang ordered the palace maid to pinch her philtrum hard, and only then did she wake up.

[It's so funny, the guy just wanted to cheat money, but these two idiots wanted to kill him first. ]

[As expected, if someone wants to die, no one can stop him. 】

[Only I am blessed with a long life. If it were anyone else, their bodies would be cold by now. ]

The emperor thought it was right. If it were another child, the body would have been cold.

He would never tolerate anyone hitting a child.

Mrs. Yang, who finally came to her senses after being pinched hard on the Ren Zhong point, was shocked by the current situation.

Regardless of the imperial presence, with his mouth reddened from being pinched, he directly scolded the monk:

"You evil monk! You have caused us so much trouble!"

Murder the princess!

If the saying about bad luck is true, then there is a reason for it.

Perhaps the punishment could be lighter.

But this is definitely not the way it will end now.

The fake monk did not want to be accused of murdering the princess, so he retorted:

"I just want to cheat money, not kill people."

"Anyone with a bit of humanity would come to ask me what to do. Who would directly operate on a child?"

At this time, Xu Xinshu, who was summoned by the emperor, also arrived.

The emperor asked her, "Which temple is it that was said to bring bad luck to your husband and children?"

Thinking of that past event, Xu Xinshu trembled subconsciously, but she answered truthfully: "Tianyu Temple."

The monk was a little confused at first. There was more than one monk in their Tianyu Temple committing fraud, so he didn't know about Xu Xinshu's situation.

But when they heard the three words "Tianyu Temple", they knew that they had offended another noble person.

How could I be so unlucky? All the people I offended were important people.

As expected, the person sitting high up gave an order: "From today on, this kind of thing that harms people so much no longer needs to exist."

Then have someone drag the deceiving monk away.

In fact, when the emperor heard Concubine Shu say that Chuchu would bring bad luck to the fetus, he thought about it for a moment.

What if this sentence did not come from the mouth of this charlatan, but was spoken by the national fortune teller?

Would he give up this child to protect the other children?

In the past, the emperor would definitely be determined to sacrifice his own family to protect the greater good.

But now he hesitated.

Alas, the children you raise are different after all.

Even though he is the emperor of iron and blood, he is also a kind-hearted person...

After questioning, Xu Xinshu also left. The only people left to be dealt with in the palace were Concubine Shu and Madam Yang.

Bei Jingchu knew that Concubine Shu was pregnant, and as long as the fetus was still there, the emperor would not punish her.

But if he even let Mrs. Yang go, Bei Jingchu felt that when she grew up, she would definitely pull out the oxygen tube from her bastard father!

No, there were no oxygen tubes in ancient times.

Then give him rat poison!

hum.

Concubine Shu pleaded with tears in her eyes: "Your Majesty, my mother is also very anxious to protect her grandson. I will definitely not do it again in the future."

"If she is punished, I will be sad and the child will be hurt."

"I beg Your Majesty to show mercy and let my mother go this time."

The emperor hesitated a little, thinking that perhaps he could wait until Concubine Shu gave birth before taking any action.

But this thought only flashed through his mind, and what should not be ignored was the little guy's inner voice:

[Ahhh, I’m so angry! You’re so shameless, do you think you’re pregnant with a death-proof gold medal?]

[Even the death-free gold medal has a limit on how many times you can get it, so this fetus has unlimited times, right? ]

[Not only did I let the pregnant woman go, but I also let your mother go. Am I a clown? Was I poisoned in vain?]

Indeed, even if they cannot do anything to Concubine Shu, should they let the other culprit go?

"Shufei, please go back to the palace."

"Then... Your Majesty must promise me that you will not punish my mother."

It was only after she became pregnant that His Majesty became gentler and Concubine Shu forgot his previous cruelty.

Now that she suddenly thought about it, she didn't dare to imagine what her mother would face.

[I have learned it, but is this what you call pushing the envelope? The law is just a decoration in your eyes.]

The emperor said in a stern voice: "Come here, ask Concubine Shu to return to the palace. She is not allowed to leave the palace until the birth."

After all the trouble, he just put her under house arrest and ignored her unreasonable demands.

Of course Concubine Shu was unwilling, but the palace servant went straight forward to tie her up, avoiding her abdomen and carrying her back.

Madam Yang kept scolding them: "What are you doing, you lowly maids? Be careful! Don't hurt the heir in Concubine Shu's belly!"

The scene was in chaos. Concubine Shu was struggling violently, and it would take time for the palace servants to tie her up by force.

"Stop!" With a loud shout, an old woman in luxurious clothes walked in from outside the door.

Bei Jingchu knew that her cheap father was going to be angry.

In the original work, this tyrant has a perverted desire for control over power.

Specifically, even his biological mother, the Queen Mother, could not enter the Imperial Study at will.

So the emperor did not pay his respects to the empress dowager, but instead expressed his displeasure: "Isn't the empress dowager meditating in the Buddhist temple?"

"Why did you come back to the palace suddenly? Why did you come in without even notifying me?"

The Queen Mother knew the Emperor's rules.

But in an emergency, she came over angrily and said, "Why do I pray and chant scriptures every day? It's all to pray for the emperor to have a prosperous offspring."

"If I hadn't come in directly, what else would you have done to the pregnant woman who was carrying my grandson?"
