The Marquise: I Earn My Own Worship

Two years after Kangger left home, good news came from Prince Chun's Mansion that the princess was pregnant.

When the news came out, the Emperor of Chu, the Empress and Concubine Ning were very happy.

The little guy was almost unable to survive, but now he has a child, which is really great news.

Rewards came one after another, and the queen even sent four palace maids to serve Princess Chun.

Every move for this child that everyone is looking forward to is handled with extreme caution.

The food that enters the mouth will be passed through three times before it is brought to Shen Shiwei. Once something is used, it is handled with the utmost care.

It’s not their fault for being so cautious, but the situation is too tense and they will fall into the trap if they are not careful.

In the past two years, the infighting among the princes has become more intense. Half of the intelligent grandsons that the Emperor of Chu valued in the past did not grow up and died at a young age.

In addition, there were countless imperial grandchildren who were killed or injured.

Some died in the inner house, and some died in "accidents".

The King of Chu changed his previous policy of suppression and sat back to watch the tigers fight. He put more energy into the war. No matter how much these rebellious sons struggled, they could not escape his control.

He felt that the older he got, the more spiritual he became.

He only regretted that he could not be ten years younger so that he could realize his ambitions.

This emperor, who is already seventy years old, has not shown any sign of hunchback. His body is still as great as before, and he holds his head high and stands upright. Time has made his imperial majesty even more powerful than before.

A slight glance could make the palace maid tremble.

Faced with this long-lived old father, the princes had a lot of grievances to express.

Especially the second prince, his health has not been very good in recent years.

He was quite portly, and as he was old he had to take several breaths after every step, so he always traveled in a sedan chair.

The sedan chair needed eight people to lift it up, and Prince An sat slumped in it, lying casually.

In the hot summer season, Prince An was gasping for breath while sitting in the sedan chair.

He was in a bad mood as he had just been criticized in the palace.

Whose grandfather is still being taught a lesson by his own father?

Prince An was unhappy but did not dare to show it.

This is the Imperial Palace, Father's territory. If he makes any move, Father will know.

If you have resentment, you can only hold it in.

After returning home, he went straight back to the house.

The room was already filled with ice basins, and the temperature quickly cooled down as soon as he entered. Prince An lay on the bed contentedly.

After recovering from his shock, Prince An began to think about his future.

Seeing that his father still had many years to live, even if he succeeded in seizing the throne, he would not be able to be emperor for many years.

Realizing this, he had a sad face.

His mother was of low status and was not valued in the palace, which made him an unpopular prince. He was not like Prince Chun, who was loved by his father in every way.

Because he grew up cautiously, he is much more sensitive than his other brothers.

When the eldest prince rebelled, he was the one who noticed the clues in advance and did some tricks.

My father has lived too long, so long that now he has the will but not the power.

Prince An sighed, the throne was like a bone hanging on him.

Even if he couldn't eat it, he still wanted to take a lick. He couldn't just watch others eat it.

After so many years, he has gotten used to it.

It’s more about holding on unwillingly. Which son doesn’t want to inherit his father’s business?

King An became annoyed, and then he thought of his younger brothers, King Li and King Xuan, who were suffering even more than him.

I can’t compete on my own, now it’s time to compete with my son.

My son is dead? It doesn't matter, I still have it.

Politicians will not grieve over the death of their offspring. At most, they will feel a little regretful as if they have lost a good seedling, and then turn their attention to new goals.

In those backyard houses, how many mothers' tears flowed from night to dawn.

The new mother Shen Shiwei suffered a lot. Since her pulse was diagnosed, she couldn't eat anything every day. She vomited after eating and vomited after eating.

She can't stand the smell of food that tastes slightly different, and she won't light any incense in the house.

It wasn't until five months that I felt better, but I still couldn't eat anything.

During the pregnancy period, many traitors were caught in the mansion.

Because of the good protective measures, those harmful things were disposed of before they were even placed in front of Princess Chun.

This continued until production.

Shen Shiwei's water broke while she was taking a nap and she was sent to the delivery room.

After waiting all night, the baby was still not born by the next morning.

Shen Shiwei's face was pale, her hair was messy, with a few strands stuck to her face, and sweat kept flowing down.

She had a ferocious look on her face and was biting the cork hard in her mouth.

"Princess, you can see the baby's head. Don't push hard yet. Just breathe in and out."

The female doctor was giving instructions from the side, her hands moving non-stop to comfort Shen Shiwei.

Following the doctor's instructions, Princess Chun gave birth to a child at noon.

The child is small and a little wrinkled, like a little old man.

Shen Shiwei looked at the child beside her and smiled. She closed her eyes, panting, and a tear rolled down the corner of her eye.

"Yes, it's a boy."

The palace maid announced the good news. The Emperor of Chu was with the Queen at the time. He stood up happily when he heard this.

"Reward, there will be a huge reward."

At the same time, good news came from the border that the Western Yi were defeated, and the Great Chu took the opportunity to encircle all the areas west of Yuehu Lake.

The Emperor of Chu was very pleased and loved his newborn grandson very much.

This child is a blessed one.

The Emperor of Chu personally named the child Chu Yuchen.

Chen means beautiful jade and precious treasures.

Kang Ge'er, who was far away at the border, heard that he had a nephew and sent back a box of jade, gold and silver.

The war was not over yet and he could not return to Beijing, so he asked someone to make a safety lock and gave it to his little nephew to bless him with safety.

Chu Yuchen was very strong, and he seemed to have grown up in just a few days, becoming white and plump.

Two wet nurses were not enough for him to eat, so two more were prepared.

The little guy grew strong and was often taken to the palace by Shen Shiwei to pay his respects to the Queen and the Imperial Concubine.

Sometimes, if she didn't come for two or three days, the Empress or Concubine Ning would send someone to inquire.

Originally, the two empress dowagers did not ask about these matters. But once they met him in the palace, they were very surprised and often asked people to send him over to see him.

The Emperor of Chu was filial, and seeing that the two Queen Mothers were rarely in a good mood, he asked the little guy to come over and keep the old people company more often.

After many times, the Emperor of Chu could often see this little guy in the palace.

Compared to the other grandchildren whose names he couldn't count, this little grandson was almost raised by him.

By the time the other princes realized something was wrong, this little guy had already won the favor of the most powerful woman in the harem.

Behind the little man stood the Holy Queen Mother, the Queen Mother Wang, the Queen, and the most favored Concubine Ning.

With their joint protection, no demons or monsters can get near him.

From being held in arms, to being able to stand, and then to being able to run.

Another two years passed.

The Holy Queen Mother passed away that year, and less than half a year after that, the Queen Mother Wang also passed away.

The King of Chu was deeply saddened and suspended court for three days.

Just at this time, news came that our army was ambushed by the enemy and the commander was missing.

The court was shaken and the people were in panic.

And this commander was none other than Duan Chengkang, a descendant of the Duan family.
