Liu Zhensheng had always wanted to get rid of the child in Shen Ning's belly, but she had been suppressing it.

She is not a fool, how could she not know what the Liu family thinks.

Liu Zhensheng wanted to rebel. He had already arranged everything and was waiting for his troops to arrive at the imperial city.

To Liu Zhensheng, Xiao Junhe was just a puppet without real power. He was only one step away from becoming the emperor of Qin.

If Xiao Junhe had lost his foundation, became inhumane, and could not have children, then the child in Shen Ning's belly would be the only heir to the royal family.

Get rid of this child, as long as Xiao Junhe dies and there is no heir to the royal family, then Liu Zhensheng can not even use a single soldier, he does not need to march to the city, he only needs to sit on the throne in an upright manner.

…

The emperor stayed at Concubine Ning's residence, and the news soon spread in the palace.

"Concubine Ning is really good at it. Your Majesty doesn't even want to take another look at us."

"Tch, what's the best way to do it? It's not to rely on the child in your belly. Let me tell you, I heard from others that your majesty may...not be able to have any more children, so the child in Concubine Ning's belly is... We are now the only independent seedling in Qin."

Several concubines gathered together to chat and gossip.

"Greetings today, do you hear what the Queen Mother means? If anyone dares to touch the child in Shen Ning's belly, the Queen Mother will be the first to not forgive him lightly."

"It seems that Your Majesty is serious..."

The concubines sighed, with regrets on their faces. The emperor was a very talented man, and he was once the God of War general of the Qin State. Many women had thought about marrying him, but he became disabled.

It’s really a twist of fate.

"Concubine Ning is pregnant. The Queen Mother even exempted her from getting up in the morning to greet her and allowed her to rest more in the inner hall. We are not so lucky."

"Isn't Concubine Ying so arrogant? The eldest palace maid was beaten to death with a stick. The Queen Mother also punished her by kneeling for three hours. She is still kneeling there now."

In Cining Palace, Concubine Ying, who was kneeling, clenched her hands angrily.

This Shen Ning! What’s so great about this is that it’s not because of the baby in her belly.

"Ying'er, send a letter for me to my cousin." Liu Yingying is the child of Liu Zhensheng's cousin, and Liu Zhensheng arranged for her to enter the palace.

She was so angry that Shen Ning started to be arrogant and put her down just because she was pregnant. Of course, she had to find a way to get rid of the child.

It happened that what Liu Zhensheng wanted most was to get rid of this child, so he naturally gave his full support.

…

Shen Ning's bedroom.

"Empress, what are you embroidering?" Chuntao walked to the side and asked with a smile.

Shen Ning asked Chuntao to take a look. "Can you see what it is?"

"Mandarin duck?" Chuntao smiled. "Your Majesty, I only envy mandarin ducks, not immortals. I want to be with Your Majesty for the rest of my life."

Shen Ning's hand holding the needle stiffened, and her eyes flashed with disappointment.

As Xiao Junhe is an emperor, how can she truly be a couple for the rest of her life?

After all, you have to share your husband with someone else.

"Empress... Your Majesty left today and asked you to get more rest. He is special to you, so don't think too much about it." Chuntao comforted in a low voice.

"It doesn't matter." Shen Ning didn't care. Xiao Junhe deliberately let people release the news that he was inhumane, just to avoid these concubines.

Thinking of Xiao Junhe's resentful expression last night, Shen Ning felt amused.

Seeing the young lady smiling, Chuntao was also happy. "Miss, let me go for a walk with you."

Shen Ning thought for a while and nodded.

"That's fine."

She couldn't stay in the inner hall all the time, she had to go out for a walk.

…

Royal Garden.

Concubine Ying was forced to kneel down and sit in the pavilion on the ground with a bad expression.

"Your Majesty... the General has sent you a message." The eunuch came over and whispered in Concubine Ying's ear. "No matter how you use it, get rid of the child in Shen Ning's belly. If you have any questions, the General will give it to you." Carry it."

Concubine Ying's eyes lit up. With Liu Zhensheng's words, she knew what was going on.

Liu Yingying sneered and threw the bait in her hand into the pond. "I heard that there are many wild cats near this pond recently?"

"Yes, then Huo Sinian has been feeding those wild cats since he entered the palace, which will cause the fish pond to overrun with wild cats." With Concubine Ying, there was Concubine Li.

Huo Sinian is the daughter of the Huo family and one of the three concubines.

Liu Yingying narrowed her eyes. "I asked you to do something."

Concubine Li was sent to the palace by Liu Zhensheng to help Liu Yingying. Hearing her words, he was stunned for a moment, and then became a little scared. "Sister... if the Queen Mother finds out about this."

"I know it was Huo Sinian's cat that caused the trouble. What does it have to do with you and me?"

Li Bin nodded clearly. "My sister is still smarter."

In this way, you can kill two birds with one stone.

"Ah, isn't that Concubine Ning?" Concubine Li glanced into the distance and saw Shen Ning and the maid eunuch walking in the imperial garden.

Liu Yingying gave Li Bin a thoughtful look. "Go."

Of course you should seize such a good opportunity.

…

Royal study room.

Xiao Junhe looked at the zhezi in his hand and sneered. "What's the difference between reading these zhezi and not reading them?"

These are all things that tend to follow the trend.

"Your Majesty, the Liu family has taken action. They are secretly deploying troops recently. Three thousand people have been stationed outside the imperial capital."

Obviously, the Liu family will take action sooner or later.

Liu Zhensheng was still dragging his feet, so he must be afraid of the Queen Mother.

"Have someone send the news to the Queen Mother." Xiao Junhe said calmly.

Now, it's time to watch them fight each other internally.

"Yes." The secret guard nodded.

"The soldiers and horses of the Huo family have also been secretly mobilized. The third prince...it's not that King Chen has already persuaded the old general of the Huo family. Once the Liu family moves..." the secret guard whispered.

Xiao Junhe nodded.

If the Liu family really rebels, they will still have to rely on the Huo family.

In this case, Huo Sinian... he had to walk around.

It's just...I'm afraid of wronging Shen Ning and causing her to misunderstand.

…

Royal Garden.

Shen Ning watched the fish by the pond and fed them some fish food.

A maid came over and bumped into Shen Ning in disbelief.

Fortunately, Chuntao had quick eyes and quick hands and did not knock Shen Ning into the water.

"Your Majesty, please forgive me, Your Majesty, please forgive me." The maidservant knelt on the ground in panic, crying and begging for mercy.

Shen Ning frowned and looked down at the powder on her body. Although the smell was very light, she was proficient in pharmacology. This was a fishy powder.

This powder attracts surrounding carnivorous creatures.

Such as wild cats.

"Which palace are you from?" Shen Ning asked lightly.

"This slave...this slave is from the palace of Concubine Li."

Shen Ning sneered, Concubine Li was a loyal follower around Concubine Ying.

She was worried that she had no place to attack the Liu family, so she sent them to her door herself.

"Your Majesty, please spare this slave. I know I was wrong." The maid kept kowtowing.

Shen Ning raised her finger and pointed at the powder on her clothes. "What is this that you sprinkled on me?"

The palace maid looked at Shen Ning in horror, and was discovered by her.

"Your Majesty... Your Majesty, you are not a slave. I don't know."

The maid wants to make excuses.

"I'm just watching you sprinkle this powder on me, and you still want to make excuses?" Shen Ning spoke again in a deep voice. "Little Yunzi, send the person to the Criminal Punishment Department and torture him severely."

As soon as she heard the words of the Shenxing Secretary, the palace maid turned pale with fright, and she knelt down in horror and begged for mercy. "My Majesty, please forgive me. My Majesty, please forgive me. I brought some fishmeal from the royal kitchen and accidentally sprinkled it on you."
