The queen has four sons and six daughters, and she can call the wind and rain

Yun Zhining suffered a head injury, but in return she was promoted two levels and was favored for a month. Everyone in the harem was almost envious, but the Empress Dowager had no objection both times. The Queen was busy taking care of Concubine An and Wanrong's pregnancy, and did not bother to care about these trivial matters. They could only stare blankly.

It was already August, and Concubine An was already more than eight months pregnant, and He Wanrong was already more than seven months pregnant. If both of them could give birth to their babies safely, the palace would have three more children this year, and the clan members would no longer scold the Queen during the New Year's Eve banquet. So the Queen focused on Concubine An and He Wanrong for more than two months, and some of the palace affairs were handed over to Concubine Shu.

It rained last night. When I woke up in the morning, the yard was a mess. The flowers in the garden were knocked to the ground by the wind and rain, and were crushed into mud and dust. Only the fragrance remained, while the branches and leaves were also destroyed. Yun Zhining pushed open the door, took a breath of the fragrance of the earth, and the heat in her body disappeared instantly.

"Morning, my lady."

"Xiao Yuanzi, what are you doing?"

"In reply to your Majesty, I plan to turn all these dead flowers and leaves into fertilizer, which can then be used to grow vegetables and flowers. The vegetables and flowers will grow better, and these dead flowers and leaves will also have value. It's killing two birds with one stone, so why not do it?"

Yun Zhining was happy.

"You are quite amazing. You can actually think of this and make the best use of everything. Not bad, not bad. Keep it up. Keep up the good work. I will tell Qingzhu later and I will double your salary this month from my monthly salary."

"I bow to thank you, Your Majesty."

"Okay, get up. If you do your job well in the future, you will get your reward."

"The slave obeys."

After taking a walk outside, Yun Zhining went to the small kitchen to think about what to have for breakfast. While she was thinking, Qingzhu ran in in a panic.

"My queen, something bad has happened. The little princess is sick."

Yun Zhining's face suddenly turned ugly.

In Yongshou Palace, Concubine De was coughing so hard that she couldn't speak, and her face turned red, so the palace maid had to answer for her.

"It rained when I went to sleep last night. The queen was worried that the nanny hadn't taken good care of the little princess, so she went to check on her. The little princess loved playing with the queen, so she wouldn't let the queen leave. The queen had no choice but to stay with the little princess. Who knew that the queen would fall asleep while staying with her? When she woke up, the window was opened. The queen and the little princess were both sick."

"Didn't you find out who opened the window?"

"Everyone was asleep at the time, no one knew what happened, and there was no way to investigate."

"Okay, I get it. Since Concubine De is ill, I will take Little Grape back to Qingning Palace first and we will talk about it after Concubine De gets better."

Concubine De waved her hands frantically and her eyes turned red from coughing.

The maid immediately understood what her master meant.

"Ming Deyi, don't worry. Although the queen is ill, the maids are still here. They will take care of the little princess. Ming Deyi doesn't need to worry at all."

"As the head of Yongshou Palace, Concubine De can't even take care of herself, let alone take care of Little Grape."

"Alright, stop arguing with me here. Little Grape is my biological daughter. I will take good care of her. Your Highness, don't worry."

After saying this, she turned around and went to look for Little Grape. Just as she carried Little Grape out, she saw Concubine De running out in disheveled clothes and raised her hand to stop her.

"Ming Deyi, I was careless this time. Please give me one more chance. I will definitely take good care of Little Grape in the future. I will never let anyone hurt her again."

"Please, don't take Little Grape away, please!"

Yun Zhining was speechless.

"Empress Defei, have you forgotten that I am Little Grape's biological mother? You are just raising Little Grape temporarily. The Emperor has not registered Little Grape under your name. You are sick, so it is legitimate for me to take Little Grape back to Qingning Palace. Even if I bring the matter to the Emperor and the Empress, I am still right. Do you think it's fun to do this?"

Concubine De did not say anything, but knelt down abruptly and kowtowed heavily.

In just a few seconds, a big swelling appeared on the forehead, which looked extremely pitiful.

People who don’t know would think that it was she who forced Concubine De to kneel down and kowtow.

Yun Zhining instantly became angry.

"Is Concubine De going to break up with me?"

"Ming Deyi, I really like Little Grape. Can you give Little Grape to me?"

"Give it to you?"

"Yes, give it to me."

Now that it has been said, Concubine De will no longer hide it.

"You are still young and favored. You may get pregnant with another child soon. If it is a prince, after the birth of the child safely, the emperor will definitely promote you to a concubine and let you raise the child yourself."

"A child needs special attention when he is just born. If Little Grape is with you, you will definitely ignore her. It is better to ask the emperor to register her under my name, and I will help you take care of her. In this way, you can take care of the second child wholeheartedly, and you don't have to worry about neglecting Little Grape and causing her some unnecessary harm."

Yun Zhining was amused by her.

"A second child?"

"If Little Grape is really registered under your name, will it still be my child?"

"Of course she will. You are her biological mother. She will never forget you. Even when she grows up, she will still be filial to you."

"But she is my daughter. She should be filial to me, not calling someone else mother and spending most of her time being filial to others."

Defei's face grew colder inch by inch.

"So, you're going to go against me?"

"I'm afraid that Concubine De is mistaken. It's not that I intend to go against you, but that you intend to steal my daughter."

"As a mother, how can I watch my daughter being taken away by someone else?"

"Okay, since you are so stubborn, don't blame me for being rude to you."

Concubine De lowered her eyes to Xiao Pu Tao, and a gentle smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.

"Little Grape, wait patiently for a few more days. Once your mother's illness is cured and the traitors in Yongshou Palace are dealt with, I will bring you back from Qingning Palace."

"Mother will never allow anyone to take you away, even if it's your biological mother."

"Bang bang bang!"

Qingning Palace.

As soon as Yun Zhining came back and settled Little Putao and the wet nurse, she sent someone to the Imperial Hospital to invite Doctor Chen to see Little Putao. She watched Little Putao finish drinking the medicine, and when she saw that Little Putao was fine, she went out to find a tree and kept hitting the tree with her fists to vent her anger.

Qingzhu, Madam Qi and others took turns to persuade her, but to no avail. They really had no choice but to ask Zhou Baozhu to go over and persuade her.

"Sister, tell me honestly, did Concubine De embarrass you?"

Yun Zhining dropped her hands weakly, tears streaming down her cheeks, and Zhou Baozhu's heart instantly tightened.

"What on earth did Concubine De do to you?"

"She asked me to give her the little grape."

"Give it to her, what do you mean?"

"What this means is that Little Grape will be registered under her name. From now on, she is Little Grape's biological mother, and I am just an insignificant person."

"How dare she?"

"She didn't dare, but she has already said so to me."

"What about you? Are you going to give Little Grape to her?"

"Of course not."

Yun Zhining reached out to wipe away her tears and sneered.

"Little Grape is the child I carried for ten months and gave birth to with great difficulty. She carries my future and hope. How could I possibly give her to Concubine De?"

"Don't worry, I have already thought of a strategy to deal with it. I will definitely not let her take Little Grape away."

"That's good."

Seeing that she had adjusted her mood, Zhou Baozhu finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"No matter what happens, I will be by your side. If you need me, just tell me. I will do whatever it takes, even if it means I will go through fire and water."

"Really?"

"Of course it's true. If you don't believe me, I swear to God. If I can't do what I said, just call me..."

Yun Zhining quickly covered her mouth and rolled her eyes at her.

"When did I say I didn't believe you?"

Zhou Baozhu chuckled.

"So, please tell me, Ming Deyi, how can I help you?"

"If you really want to help me, go to the kitchen and make a few sweet dishes so that I can be fully revived after eating them."

"Okay, I'll go right away."

In the small kitchen of Qingning Palace, Zhou Baozhu was making delicious food for Yun Zhining to make up for her wounded little heart, while in Yongshou Palace, Qi Yejing was sitting in front of the bed, watching Concubine De crying.
