In the next two days, Concubine Hua looked at the Sixth Prince without blinking, but no one was so blind as to approach him.

Everyone who came to the sky gave An Lingrong a symbolic greeting and pretended to be sad.

"Your Majesty, three of the people who harmed you died in the Ministry of Punishment. The Emperor is furious and wants to bring their families to justice. When the guards went to look for them, they found no survivors."

An Lingrong was not surprised by this result.

The Queen has been in charge for many years, so it is not surprising that she has people in the Ministry of Punishment.

"According to rumors, the teacups were replaced in the Qinzheng Hall that day."

Baoque added softly.

This news must have come from Xiao Xiazi, but it’s not easy to say it out loud.

An Lingrong's mind, which had been resting for several days, started to work quickly. Childless old women like Concubine Duan and Concubine Jing had set their sights on her Sixth Prince.

The pregnant queen hoped that she would die early, and even the Sixth Prince didn't want to stay.

As for Concubine Hua, it’s hard to say.

Although she was made a concubine, her situation was still difficult.

"You guys take turns to rest, don't burn yourself out."

She still doesn't have many people to use, so she has to find a way to bring her mother and others to the capital and train some people outside the palace.

"Thank you for your concern, madam."

The three of them kowtowed again to express their gratitude.

"Bao Que, thank you for your hard work and deliver the lotus pod sachets I embroidered to the Qinzheng Palace. Please thank the emperor for his grace on my behalf."

During the time she was in a coma, the emperor rested in the Qinzheng Hall for the first two days and spent the rest of the time at the Bitong Academy.

Although she could not sleep with the emperor during her confinement period, she always reminded him that he had a concubine who gave birth to the Sixth Prince and was always thinking about him.

It was a great joy to the whole world that An Lingrong woke up in time. Su Peisheng, who came to announce the imperial decree, followed Baoli in kneeling down to thank the emperor, and then went straight to the Qinzheng Hall.

"Your Majesty, I have good news to report."

The money and grain in the northwest were robbed, and Concubine Shu is on the verge of death. How can there be any good news at this moment?

However, the anxious emperor still sat up straight and scolded with a stern face.

"You little dog slave, you're trying to play tricks on me. Why don't you report back to me right away?"

"Your Majesty is blessed with great fortune. Under your protection, Concubine Shu has already awakened."

Su Peisheng reported happily.

"Good, good, good! Su Peisheng, Concubine Shu has made great contributions to raising the Sixth Prince. Reward...reward..."

The annual salary for a concubine is 300 taels, and the annual salary for a concubine is 200 taels.

If it weren't for Old Ten who messed up...

"Forget it, I'll go see her myself."

It is such an honor for the emperor to come in person.

There was a lot of commotion in the sky, so Taohuawu naturally got the news as well.

"My Lady, the one who is above and below the sky is awake."

Jianqiu reported carefully.

"What! He's still awake after being in a coma for seven days?"

The queen looked at Jianqiu in disbelief, trying to find any sign that she was joking.

"Your Majesty, there are rumors out there that the Emperor is blessed with great fortune and has blessed that person. He woke up just as he issued the imperial decree to confer her the title of Consort."

"Shufei is quite lucky. Jianqiu, how is the message I asked you to deliver?"

As soon as An Lingrong fell into a coma, she asked people to spread the news that the Sixth Prince had killed his mother.

The prince who brought disaster to his mother is destined to have no chance of becoming the emperor. Even if the emperor will protect him, the empress dowager, who has a grudge against him, will not like the child.

Jianqiu fell to his knees with a thud.

"Your Majesty, before our men could fully unleash their power, they were captured by the guards and thrown into the Ministry of Punishment."

The successive defeats made Jianqiu feel extremely panicked, and she knelt down before the queen.

"Miss, the most important thing for you right now is to take good care of the little prince in your belly."

"You are the Empress, the Emperor's wife. No matter how valuable the other concubines are, they are only concubines."

"I will never be able to surpass the wife in my life."

The queen wiped away her tears and helped Jianqiu up.

"You are right. I am the emperor's wife. Even in death, I am still the emperor's wife."

"Jianqiu, expose the fact that An Bihuai lost the grain and silver in the northwest."

She, Ulanara Yixiu, would never let it go like this.

As soon as the emperor entered Hanyue Tower, he first went to see the sleeping Sixth Prince, and then came to An Lingrong's inner room.

"Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you and thank you for saving my life."

An Lingrong fell into a coma after giving birth. Baoque and the others thought that the delivery room was not conducive to the queen's recuperation, so they cleaned her up a little and moved her back to her original place.

"I'm glad you've woken up, my dear. But how are you going to thank me?"

The emperor, in a good mood, rarely started to joke with others.

An Lingrong was stunned for a moment, then spoke in a gentle voice.

"I have no way to repay you. The only thing I can do for Your Majesty is to recover quickly and bear you many children."

"Okay! I think this is a good idea. My beloved, you must take good care of yourself."

He just went to see the Sixth Prince and he was very strong.

The other children born to Concubine Shu must be no worse.

The emperor was extremely happy at the thought that in the future a group of little kids would surround him and call him "Emperor Father".

Concubine Shu gave birth to a prince, and the Empress and Concubine Hui were both pregnant, so he would have more and more royal heirs.

Wouldn't it be wonderful if Huan'er got pregnant again?

It was a hot summer day, and An Lingrong had not washed herself thoroughly since giving birth. She was afraid of offending the emperor's eyes, so tears welled up in her eyes.

"Your Majesty, there is another reason behind my premature birth. Please help me."

A lot of things did happen before and after An Lingrong gave birth, and the emperor, who had regained his composure, immediately asked about it.

"My beloved concubine, if you have any grievances, please tell me quickly and I will definitely make a decision for you."

"Your Majesty, I was walking outside the other day. When I passed by the rockery, I heard a palace servant say that my father neglected his duties and caused the loss of grain and silver in the northwest."

"I was frightened and my abdomen is in constant pain."

"Your Majesty, someone is trying to use this to murder the heir to the throne. Please investigate."

An Lingrong never mentioned pleading for An Bihuai.

The emperor knew about this matter, and the imperial harem learned the news as soon as the report on the missing grain and silver in the northwest was delivered to the Qinzheng Palace.

He asked Su Peisheng to torture those who were gossiping that he caught during the day. It is better not to mention the result.

Now Xia Qi is ordered to keep an eye on the people in the harem to see who has connections with the previous dynasty.

These definitely cannot be told to Concubine Shu.

"Don't worry, my beloved concubine. I will have someone conduct a thorough investigation."

"Also, your father, An Bihuai, was implicated in the loss of grain and silver in the northwest. What does Concubine Shu think?"

Ancestral precepts say: The harem is not allowed to interfere in government affairs.

An Lingrong bowed to the emperor.

"Your Majesty, if my father has truly committed a serious offense, please punish him according to the law."

"Rong'er, do you really think so?"

If someone from one of the other concubines committed a crime, nine out of ten times they would cry and pester him for mercy.

Unexpectedly, this Concubine Shu was such a polite person, and he had no intention of severely punishing An Bihuai.

After all, Concubine Shu had said in person that An Bihuai was mediocre and could not be of great use.

"Your Majesty, as a child, I do not ask Your Majesty to forgive my father, but I do ask Your Majesty to give my father a chance to defend himself."

The Concubine Shu can have a father who is a criminal, but the Sixth Prince cannot have a family member who is guilty.

"Rong'er, your father is just an escort. I have ordered him to be detained. He will just have to suffer a little."

The matter of missing grain and silver in the northwest involved the harem, so the emperor had to handle it with caution.
