After separating from my mother-in-law, I raised my children, built a house, and filled the granary

"Qingxia, don't forget the purpose of your entry into the palace."

Concubine Liu stared at the bewildered Xu Qingxia and looked at her quietly.

Xu Qingxia slowly lowered her hands from her belly.

She actually thought that if the child was born, she would raise the child well in the palace and spend the rest of her life with the child, which would not be a bad thing.

But she is not a woman who is ignorant of the world.

After entering the palace, she actually didn't want to make things difficult for Shen Yunwan every now and then, but she knew that Concubine Liu and Liu Yingyu wanted to see it.

She could only stand in front.

Now, is she going to sacrifice her child?

The sadness in Xu Qingxia's eyes could not be hidden from Concubine Liu.

Not long after Xu Qingxia returned to her bedroom, the stinging pain in her body made her break out in cold sweats.

I sent a maid to ask for the imperial physician, but I saw the personal nanny beside Concubine Liu.

Xu Qingxia's face turned pale in an instant.

"The Imperial Concubine has asked the young lady to invite Madam Lin to the palace tomorrow."

After saying that, Xu Qingxia was left alone in the huge bedroom. Her teeth were chattering, perhaps because of the cold or the pain.

She stroked her belly, feeling the life slowly slipping away.

Xu Qingxia lay quietly, no longer struggling, no longer hoping.

Even if she sent someone to find the emperor, what would be the use?

There are so many children in the palace that the emperor can't even remember them all, not to mention that the one in her belly was conceived through trickery.

What's more, her people couldn't leave the bedroom at all, or it could be said that there were no her people at all.

Shen Yunwan, who knew nothing about all this, was still at home preparing things for entering the palace tomorrow.

"The nobles in the palace must be eager to keep the lady in the palace. Didn't she just enter the palace not long ago?"

Nanny Li complained but she didn't stop working.

Shen Yunwan also had a headache because Concubine Liu and Xu Qingxia insisted on dragging her into the palace.

In her opinion, although they had made some troubles after entering the palace, they were just some small tricks that were not presentable.

Not painful or itchy.

Just a waste of time.

Before dawn, she entered the palace with Lin Chengfeng.

"After court, I'll take you home." Lin Chengfeng held the woman's hand and instructed her.

When the emperor comes to see him, he will definitely remind the concubines in the harem to be quiet and stop looking for his wife all the time.

Although Shen Yunwan always said that it was nothing, the tiredness and impatience between her brows still made him feel distressed.

With Xu Qingxia's intelligence, he was not worried that Yun Wan would suffer any injustice.

Moreover, he is now a favorite of the emperor. Although the concubines in the harem cannot interfere in state affairs, the distinction between the former and latter dynasties cannot be made so clearly.

With him around, the concubines were apparently kind to Shen Yunwan.

I won't trip you up openly.

When Lin Chengfeng saw the woman walking towards the harem, he went to court.

After leaving court, he was still called to the imperial study.

I don't know why, but I feel inexplicably uneasy today.

"What's wrong? Your wife is entering the palace, what are you worried about?" The emperor looked at Lin Chengfeng, who was a little uneasy, and suppressed his displeasure.

"Your Majesty, my wife is just a village woman. She can't offer any experience to the ladies in the palace. I'm afraid that my wife might displease them."

The displeasure in the emperor's eyes could no longer be suppressed.

As an emperor, he felt that so-called emotions would only affect his judgment.

If a man is always influenced by women, he will never achieve anything great.

Then, for some reason, I suddenly thought of Lin Xiangxi.

That young man, with such a cold mind, was actually thinking of bringing snacks for his mother.

Both Lin Chengfeng and Lin Xiangxi were led by the nose by the woman named Shen Yunwan.

A cold light flashed in the emperor's eyes.

He could allow women to do something, but he could not accept that the man he liked would be distracted by a woman.

Before he could respond, Ah Shun came over anxiously to report.

"Your Majesty, is something wrong with Concubine Xu?"

The emperor's face remained indifferent. There were too many women in the harem and he couldn't remember who this person was.

"It's Xu Qingxia." Ah Shun grew up with the emperor. Even if the emperor had no expression on his face, he could guess what the emperor was thinking.

When Lin Chengfeng heard it was Xu Qingxia, he put down the chess piece in his hand and asked, "What about my wife?"

He remembered that it was Concubine Liu and Xu Qingxia who summoned her into the palace, and she also brought a few boxes of toner.

It was said to be for Concubine Liu.

Every autumn, Concubine Liu would have allergies on her face. She used to take skin-beautifying pills and could get through it safely.

Now that the beauty pills are no longer produced, she can only entrust Shen Yunwan to make a few boxes of toner cream for her.

The emperor didn't look at Ah Shun, but stared at the chess piece that Lin Chengfeng had casually placed.

For some reason, the emperor felt a little irritable.

He hadn't felt this way in a long time.

Ever since he ascended to the throne of the emperor, even those noble families dared not look down on him.

Ashun, who focused his attention on the emperor, felt a pang in his heart. Is His Majesty angry?

Ah Shun followed the emperor's gaze, staring at the chess piece that Lord Lin had casually placed down, and began to make a guess.

He tried to wink at Lord Lin, but Lin Chengfeng's mind was full of his wife.

Could it be that his wife was bullied?

Before Lin Chengfeng could stand up, Ah Shun quickly interrupted him.

If Lin Chengfeng continues to disregard the emperor's authority, even if Madam Lin is innocent, she will be thrown into prison.

"Concubine Xu has her period, and Madam Lin is here."

"Let's go and take a look together, Lord Lin." The emperor returned to his expressionless face, as if the baby in Xu Changzai's belly was not his.

The things that are most abundant in this palace are women and children.

Lin Chengfeng followed behind the emperor.

As soon as I reached the temple door, I smelled a bloody smell.

At this moment, a group of people were kneeling in the hall.

Shen Yunwan was kneeling in the center of the hall, with several imperial doctors beside her.

"The Emperor has arrived!"

Everyone saluted the emperor.

The emperor helped Concubine Liu to stand up and sit at the top. He didn't even go in to take a look at Xu Qingxia.

Looking at Lin Chengfeng kneeling beside Shen Yunwan, a gloomy look flashed across the emperor's eyes.

Ah Shun stood aside and couldn't help but worry for Lin Chengfeng.

This Lord Lin usually seems quite shrewd, but why is it that when it comes to Madam Lin's affairs, his brain becomes so clumsy?!

"Your Majesty, Sister Xu had her period and lost the child. It was my fault for not caring for her well enough. Please punish me, Your Majesty."

Concubine Liu stood up from her seat and knelt on one side.

The reason why Liu Yingyan was able to climb to the position of imperial concubine was not only because of her Liu family background and extraordinary appearance, but most importantly, she had brains.

The emperor looked at the person kneeling at his feet and said in a low, cold voice, "The imperial physician is here too. Tell me what happened?"

The kneeling imperial physician trembled a little, "Your Majesty, Concubine Xu smelled musk and caused her to have a period."

"Musk?" The emperor looked at Concubine Liu.

"Your Majesty, when Madam Lin came to the palace to give me the toner today, Sister Xu was there too.

Sister Xu was curious and wanted to give it a try. I also asked Madam Lin if it was okay to touch a pregnant woman.

After receiving a positive response from Mrs. Lin, she allowed Sister Xu to try it, but she only asked her to apply it on the back of her hand.
