The concubine entered the palace and the concubine was very attractive

Half an hour later, Kikuhei brought a middle-aged woman dressed in ordinary nanny clothes to Wangyueju.

"Chun Yue! Go and inform the queen! Nanny Lan Ji from Kunning Palace is here."

Upon hearing this, Chunyue put down the sweeping in her hands and hurried to the inner hall.

Soon Chunyue came to Juping with a happy look on her face.

"The Queen said to let Aunt Lanji in."

"Please in, Madam Lan Ji!" Ju Ping smiled faintly and waved to Lan Ji beside him.

"Thank you, Miss Juping, for leading the way." Lan Ji said in a hoarse voice.

"Mommy, you're welcome."

When the two arrived at the inner hall, they saw Nanxiang sitting on the couch eating snacks.

"Your servant Lan Ji pays respect to Her Majesty Shufei!"

Kikuhei squatted slightly and left the inner hall.

When Nanxiang raised her eyes, she saw a middle-aged woman squatting in front of her. She was wearing a gray palace maid's uniform and had a few ordinary silver hairpins with precious beads in her hair.

"Thank you for your courtesy, Madam. Please stand up." Nan Xiang said in a friendly tone with a faint smile in the corners of her eyes.

"Thank you, Concubine Shu!"

"Aunt Ruolan, do you still remember this old friend?"

Nanxiang spoke to Ruolan who was standing nearby.

At this moment, Ruolan's face was full of nostalgia, and her eyes showed the emotion of seeing her old friend again, and a little secret joy.

Lan Ji looked at Ruolan who was standing not far away, with a hint of surprise in her eyes. It was hard to tell whether she was excited or happy on her face. Only her slightly trembling lips showed that she was surprised and delighted to see Ruolan.

"Of course I remember. Sister Lan Ji helped me many times back then." Ruolan said with a smile on her face.

"Ruolan has also helped me." Lan Ji said modestly.

"Okay! I'll give you some time to reminisce about the past later." Nanxiang chuckled, interrupting the two people's reminiscing about the past years.

"I wonder why Madam Shufei asked me to come here?"

After hearing Nan Xiang's words, Lan Ji's expression instantly returned to its original state, and she looked neither humble nor arrogant.

"Do you know that I am pregnant with a dragon heir?" Nan Xiang asked in a deep voice, with a hint of authority in her tone.

"Of course I know. Madam Shufei has a great fortune and is deeply loved by the Emperor."

"Alright. I won't waste my words with you. I asked you to come here today just to have you give birth for me! Do you have the confidence?"

Nanxiang's voice was solemn and cold, without a trace of emotion.

"Your Majesty! I am just one of the inconspicuous midwives in Kunning Palace. How can I accept such an honor?"

Long before arriving at Wangyueju, Lan Ji had vaguely guessed Nanxiang's purpose, and she might have asked her to go over and ask about some matters regarding childbirth.

But she didn't know why Nanxiang chose her. She had to know that she had never been liked by others in Kunning Palace, and the reputation she had outside was not good.

Before she came, the maids compared her to mud that wanted to cling to power, which was wishful thinking.

They thought that Lan Ji was just lucky, and if Concubine Shu knew about it, she would definitely return empty-handed.

However, she didn't expect Ruolan to be here, and she also understood why Nanxiang called her alone.

However, she had not participated in childbirth for many years, and at most she had assisted during the time when the late emperor was still alive.

Now that Nan Xiang has entrusted her with such an important task, how can she accept it with peace of mind?

"But I heard that Nanny Lanji is an expert in delivering babies in the palace. She has great skills. Why can't she accept my request?"

Nanxiang's expression relaxed slightly, and an indescribable smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.

"Your Highness, I haven't taken over this for many years..."

Lan Ji squatted down and explained softly.

Nanxiang glanced at Ruolan who was beside her.

Ruolan immediately understood what she meant and said to the squatting Lan Ji angrily, "Don't I know what your level is? What's the point of hiding this skill? Are you going to take it to the earth?"

"Ruolan..."

Just as Lan Ji was about to say something, she was stopped by Ruolan's angry eyes.

She lowered her head, thinking about something.

"Lan Ji, I'm not saying anything bad about you. When did you become so self-deprecating? This is not like you."

Ruolan snorted coldly, her tone full of dissatisfaction with Lan Ji's delay.

"I haven't taken over this for many years. I'm afraid that my skills will become rusty and harm the queen." Lan Ji explained helplessly.

After hearing this, Ruolan felt better. At least Lan Ji gave a relatively acceptable reason.

"Auntie Lan Ji, did you hear that I was attacked by a cat a few days ago? It almost happened..." Nan Xiang said with some emotion.

"There are only a few people I can trust now. I heard that Aunt Ruolan has a good friend who knows how to deliver babies. That's why I asked Aunt Lanji to come today."

Nanxiang spoke weakly, her voice trembling, and her eyes turned red without her knowing.

"Lan Ji, you also know what kind of people those are in Kunning Palace! If the Queen falls into their hands, the consequences can be imagined." Ruolan sighed softly and expressed her concerns.

Nanxiang had a sad look on her face and glanced at Lan Ji in front of her out of the corner of her eye.

Through the conversation just now, she has roughly judged what kind of person Lan Ji is.

She must have a good heart, otherwise she would have been very happy to accept her invitation.

Nanxiang has already told Lan Ji explicitly and implicitly the purpose of inviting her, but Lan Ji has her own considerations.

This means that she really considered helping Nanxiang deliver the baby, but hesitated because of some concerns.

"I must know."

……

Jingren Palace.

"Your Majesty! Consort Shu from Wangyueju has summoned the nurse from Kunning Palace."

"Oh? She can't wait that long? I remember she's not even five months old yet."

After hearing Caizhi's report, Queen Chen frowned a little. Although her tone was calm, her heart was already in turmoil.

"It should be to prepare early!"

"Do you know which nanny she summoned?" Chen asked in a deep voice.

"She is a nanny of poor reputation. I heard that she is not well-received in Kunning Palace."

"What is Concubine Shu planning to do? Why did she invite such a person?"

After hearing this, Chen frowned even deeper.

She sent a message to the Queen Mother a few days ago and has now received a reply.

The Queen Mother did not deny her idea, but she did not agree with it either.

Because they all know that this is difficult and a wrong step could lead her to the abyss.

However, as a queen, she had no children, which would surely cause people to laugh at her in the future, and might even affect her position as queen mother.

She couldn't help but clench her fists, with a chill in her eyes.

……

Wangyueju.

Nanxiang tapped lightly on the tea table with her white fingers, looking at Lan Ji with a serious expression, a hint of thought flashing across her face.

By now, the fact that she summoned the Kunning Palace nanny should have been known to many people.

I don’t know how these people will react.

"This servant is willing to help the queen deliver the baby!"

Just when Nanxiang was worried, Nanny Lanji, who was squatting in front of her, finally gave her a positive answer.
