Shunan Palace

The Queen Mother was listening to music when she suddenly heard that Old Madam Bo wanted to see her. She smiled and asked someone to come in. But when she looked up, she saw that Old Madam Bo and Madam Bo had red and swollen eyes, and red anger under their eyebrows.

The Queen Mother lost interest in listening to the music. She waved her hand and asked people to leave. She asked, "What happened?"

Old Madam Bo knelt on the ground, choking with sobs: "Please, Queen Mother, help me. I only have one grandson, and he was ruined by Xu Feng."

The Queen Mother was confused and asked someone to help Old Lady Bo up: "If you have anything to say, please speak slowly."

So Mrs. Bo told her the whole story.

There were some things she couldn't exaggerate because there were simply too many people at the scene.

"Empress Dowager, Xu Feng deliberately targeted the Bo family. He snatched the ball on the court and targeted Chuan Ge'er everywhere. Now he shot him and seriously injured him. He did it on purpose to cut off the Bo family." Mrs. Bo cried, but in her heart she wished to cut Xu Feng into pieces.

The Queen Mother frowned upon hearing this. The Xu family had indeed become more prominent recently.

The Xu family's brother and sister, one in the front court and the other in the harem, no one dared to provoke them.

Just when I heard the news that Concubine Xu was coming,

The Queen Mother sneered: "Concubine Xu is well-informed. She came just as the talents arrived."

After all, she was a favorite concubine, so the Queen Mother still gave her face and asked someone to invite Concubine Xu in. Concubine Xu had a smile on her face. When she saw the crying Old Lady Bo and Madam Bo, she said, "Queen Mother, I didn't know you had guests here. Why don't I go to the side hall and wait for you first?"

"Since you are here, please take a seat." The Queen Mother pointed to a chair beside her and said, "It just so happens that this matter is also related to your Xu family."

Concubine Xu bowed with a bewildered look on her face and sat down.

The Queen Mother saw Concubine Xu smiling continuously and frowned: "Concubine Xu, General Xu Feng has seriously injured Bo Yuanchuan, how can you still laugh?"

Concubine Xu was surprised: "Brother hurt Bo Yuanchuan, when did it happen?"

Seeing that Concubine Xu was pretending to be confused, Madam Bo repeated the process again: "Master Xu is clearly relying on someone's support to deliberately target Brother Chuan. Concubine, what deep hatred do you and your sister have against the Bo family that you want to humiliate the Bo family like this?"

Concubine Xu's face darkened. "I just learned about this matter. Madam Bo, please stop slandering me."

No one present believed this.

The Queen Mother asked quietly, "Is the Imperial Concubine coming?"

"In reply to the Empress Dowager, I felt unwell when I woke up this morning. The imperial physician diagnosed me just now and found that I have been pregnant for more than a month. The physician also said that this baby is very likely to be a prince. The Emperor is very happy, but he was temporarily tied up by court affairs and could not spare time, so he asked me to come and tell the Empress Dowager the good news." A look of grievance and anger flashed across Concubine Xu's delicate face.

Old Mrs. Bo and Madam Bo's expressions became increasingly ugly.

Concubine Xu became pregnant with the little prince less than two months after entering the palace.

In that case, today's lawsuit was filed in vain.

Sure enough, when the Queen Mother heard that Concubine Xu was pregnant, a smile appeared on her face: "The Emperor, too, you are pregnant, why do you have to run back and forth?"

"Empress Dowager, the Emperor is filial. Thinking that you have been depressed recently because of the Crown Prince, he asked me to cheer you up. He also said that there has been no heir in the palace for a long time. I have discussed with the Emperor that when a little prince is born in the future, I beg the Empress Dowager to help raise him. I... really have no experience as a mother. With your guidance, the little prince will definitely be smart and clever, which will also relieve your loneliness."

Concubine Xu's words made the empress dowager smile and be very excited. The empress dowager had raised the prince, but unfortunately something happened to him.

The Queen Mother was also annoyed by this.

It has been boring these years, but now that the emperor dotes on Concubine Xu, this little prince will definitely have a noble status in the future.

At the very least, he is still a prince.

Handing the child over to the Queen Mother for raising is, on the one hand, a way for her to develop feelings for the child and to add to the power of her mother's family.

The Queen Mother was overjoyed. Her anger just now disappeared in an instant. She took Concubine Xu's hand and said, "Did the imperial physician really say that you are carrying a little prince this time?"

Fearing that the Empress Dowager would not believe her, Concubine Xu invited the imperial physician to take her pulse in public.

The empress dowager's smile never stopped until the imperial physician said that it was indeed the little prince. She gave rewards and asked people to take good care of Concubine Xu.

"The first three months are the most critical, Concubine Xu, you can't be careless." The Queen Mother warned.

It seemed as if he had forgotten the two people who had complained, and his eyes were filled with Concubine Xu.

However, Mrs. Bo felt that the child came in a very clever way, just when they were complaining.

"Thank you for your concern, Queen Mother. I will be extra careful and cautious to protect the birth of the prince." Concubine Xu said with a smile.

The Empress Dowager stared at Concubine Xu's belly, wishing she could let the little prince come out immediately. As if she had thought of something, she sat back in her chair and looked at Old Lady Bo.

At this moment, Mrs. Bo wished she had never been here. It was simply bringing humiliation upon herself.

"There are winners and losers in the arena, and the rules were agreed upon in advance. Lord Xu really cannot be blamed for this matter." The Queen Mother sighed and changed her previous words. It was clear that her attitude was to keep the peace.

"Empress Dowager..." Mrs. Bo was dissatisfied.

Old Madam Bo forced a smile and said, "Your Majesty the Queen Mother is absolutely right. I was so angry that I forgot the rules. The men of the Bo family are brave and will not deny their mistakes."

Mrs. Bo looked at her mother-in-law in surprise. Didn’t she come here to complain? Didn’t she give up just because Concubine Xu was pregnant?

The Queen Mother was very pleased with Mrs. Bo's understanding and immediately said that she would ask the imperial physician to treat Bo Yuanchuan well and try to leave no regrets.

Concubine Xu beside her sighed and suddenly said, "It's no wonder that Madam Bo is angry. The Xu family is indeed responsible for this matter."

Concubine Xu looked at the Queen Mother and said, "Bo Yuanchuan is the legitimate son of the Bo family. He was about to reach the age of marriage, but he was seriously injured. If the Bo family is extinct, it will be the fault of the Xu family. Queen Mother, I want to compensate the Bo family."

The Queen Mother smiled at Concubine Xu and asked, "What are your plans, Concubine?"

Concubine Xu looked at Madam Bo, her eyes flashing with sarcasm, which frightened Madam Bo. She said, "I plan to find a few women with suitable appearance for men to be concubines for Master Bo, so that the Bo family can have more branches and leaves."

Mrs. Bo's mind suddenly exploded when she heard this. She stared at Concubine Xu in shock and was about to decline: "Thank you for your kindness, Concubine. The Bo family..."

But the Queen Mother agreed immediately: "Well, Master Bo is only forty years old, it's time for him to have more children."

"Then I will give Xi Que and Lian Yi, who are beside me, to Lord Bo. They are well-behaved and sensible, and have been with me for many years. If it were not for the purpose of apologizing to the Xu family, I would never be willing to let them go." Concubine Xu pointed at the two palace maids behind her.

The two men stood out, revealing their charming and seductive faces, which made Mrs. Bo furious. Once such people entered the house, how could the Bo family remain peaceful?
