Chapter 169 Concubine in the Cold Palace 3

Smallpox in ancient times was actually equivalent to a terminal illness in modern times. There was no way to cure it and it all depended on luck. If you were lucky, you could survive it, but if you were unlucky, you could only wait to die. Moreover, smallpox was contagious.

After the imperial concubine learned about this, she fainted. She also understood that the main reason she could be so arrogant in the harem was because she gave birth to a good son. But if she could not protect this son, what hope did she have for the rest of her life?

The emperor's face looked a little ugly. He had difficulty in having children, and now he was in his thirties and had only one prince. If this child was gone, how would the former dynasty and the harem be explained?

The emperor did not want to give up the throne he had fought so hard to win to someone else so easily, so he could only order the imperial physician to treat the prince well. For the safety of the harem, he had to move the eldest prince to a remote palace for treatment.

After the imperial concubine learned about this, she cried and said, "Your Majesty, you moved the eldest prince to such a remote place. How can the palace servants serve him wholeheartedly? I hope Your Majesty can move him back. At least he can watch in front of us. The eldest prince has Your Majesty's power and will surely be safe."

The emperor's face was gloomy. "My dear concubine, you have overstepped your bounds. The eldest prince has smallpox, and there are so many concubines in the harem, not to mention the empress dowager."

The emperor actually valued his life very much, but he didn't say it. The only thing he could do was to send a few more imperial doctors and reward them with a lot of precious medicinal materials.

However, this smallpox incident was indeed a bit strange. How could it happen out of nowhere? There was no case of smallpox in the palace, or even outside the palace. It was really strange.

The emperor has ordered an investigation. At first, he suspected that it was the concubines who did it, but he still had no clue. He even traced the cause to his brothers. After all, the possibility of them profiting from the death of his only son was very high.

Everyone in the palace was in danger. On the one hand, it was because the emperor was investigating smallpox, and on the other hand, they were all afraid of contracting smallpox. Somehow, a rumor suddenly spread in the palace.

"Your Highness, the Imperial Concubine is born to be unlucky with children. To be more precise, she is unlucky with the royal family. Just think about it, the eldest prince is gone just like that.

Also, during the previous month of the noble lady's pregnancy, the imperial physician said that it was a little prince, but in the end the imperial concubine punished her and confiscated the baby.

Moreover, since the imperial concubine entered the palace, no little prince has been born in the palace, but she is pregnant. This is simply a star of misfortune."

"Now that you put it, it's possible. Every time I see the face of the imperial concubine, I always tremble."

"They are also two little princesses. They are lucky to be two girls. If it was a boy, he might follow the eldest prince."

"Yes, it's because the Imperial Concubine was unlucky and suppressed the Emperor's fate, causing the Emperor to almost lose his little prince."

…………

When the emperor heard the rumor, even if he wanted to send someone to investigate, he didn't know where the rumor came from.

The emperor naturally did not believe in these weird and superstitious stories. Besides, there were concubines in the harem who had become pregnant before, but they all failed to keep the baby. It was the imperial concubine who was lucky and gave birth to two daughters and a son.

But then, several strange things happened in the palace, and in the end even the emperor had to believe it.

It was summer, but thousands of moths and insects swarmed towards the imperial concubine's palace. At the same time, an unpleasant smell came from the imperial concubine's palace.

In this situation, everyone felt very nervous. It was obvious that the imperial concubine had offended the majesty of heaven, and so she was being punished.

If that was the only incident, it would be fine, but the most important thing is that the imperial concubine’s palace was actually punished by heaven. Yes, it was the legendary lightning strike.

Although there is a saying in ancient times that one should not talk about strange and supernatural things, the ancient times were extremely feudal and superstitious. Even the emperor believed in the imperial concubine, but when the eldest prince really died, even the emperor was shaken.

The Queen Mother specifically called the Emperor over and said, "Your Majesty, before, the Imperial Concubine was tyrannical in the harem, but I let her off lightly because she gave birth to the eldest prince. But now the eldest prince is gone. If the child of Concubine Yue could be born alive, it should be a healthy little prince.

Your Majesty, you are not young anymore. If Your Majesty does not have a little prince, the previous dynasty will be in chaos.

I went to ask the people of the Imperial Observatory to calculate it again, and found that the imperial concubine is indeed carrying evil spirits. Otherwise, let her practice in the harem with her hair untied, which can also be regarded as praying for the harem. "

The emperor lowered his head and finally agreed to what the empress dowager said. In order to prevent the evil spirit of the imperial concubine from reaching the two little princesses, the two little princesses were taken to another palace to be raised.

Originally, she should have been brought up by other concubines, but those concubines were afraid of the evil spirit of the imperial concubine, so they also began to resist the little princess.

When the imperial concubine learned that her son had died, she became crazy and kept shouting that it was impossible.

"Your Majesty, how can you be so heartless? I gave birth to a little prince for you!

Oh, right, where is the little prince? Hurry up and call him out. He is the most obedient...

My little prince is not only the emperor's first son, but also his only son. He is of noble status. How could he be taken away by a small disease like smallpox?

Someone must be doing this on purpose..."

But no matter how much the imperial concubine cried or anything else, she could only stay in her own palace. If it weren't for the two little princesses, this place would have become a cold palace long ago.

Most of the women in the harem were happy when the emperor lost his only son. This was because the imperial concubine had been showing off because she gave birth to the only prince. Not only did she lose the favor of many concubines, she even offended many of them.

Before, they had to endure it silently because they had no one to rely on. But now, the imperial concubine has become the only one doomed to failure. In order to give birth to a child, they all try their best to win favor.

Over in the cold palace, Su Tong smiled happily after learning that the imperial concubine got the retribution she deserved. He took advantage of his free time to go and see the emperor again. The legendary emperor had sword-like eyes and a tall stature, which was exactly what he liked.

If it was an old man of four or five years old, she would never get involved with such a person even if she couldn't complete the task.

Su Tong was bound to become a favorite concubine, give birth to a prince, become the empress dowager, and take charge of the government.

Fortunately, I have been well nourished during this period of time. With the help of the spiritual spring water, I am like a white and tender little glutinous rice dumpling, with soft and gentle eyebrows and eyes, and a layer of light seems to be shrouded from head to toe. I am the kind of gentle beauty who amazes the world at first sight.

Most of those who could enter the harem selection were the most beautiful beauties. The original owner's appearance might not be outstanding in the harem, but with her own temperament and flawless white skin, she could naturally be comparable to most of the beauties.

My health has improved, but how can I win favor?
