Chapter 366 Concubine Rou and Concubine Rong compete for favor?
Concubine Rong was unhappy, but she also knew that if she kept pestering her, the emperor would be unhappy. If the emperor was unhappy, he would not be able to enjoy her good fruits, so she had no choice but to resign.
When he reached the entrance of the palace, he looked back and saw Concubine Rou holding a soup bowl and personally feeding the emperor soup. Her eyes turned red with anger.
For more than half a month, the emperor stayed in Concubine Rou's palace every night. Because Concubine Rou was very considerate and took good care of the emperor, she did not ask for anything from him. Concubine Rou, who was as gentle as water, just looked at him.
It was pleasing to the eye and made the emperor's headache much better.
Concubine Rong pretended to be sick and made trouble, but the emperor occasionally came and was intercepted by Concubine Rou.
Concubine Rong gritted her teeth, wondering why she hadn't noticed before that Concubine Rou was actually a vixen. As long as she showed a little bit of humiliation, the emperor would abandon her, a pregnant woman, and go to the vixen's palace.
Concubine Rong couldn't help it, so she went to Concubine Guigui and Concubine Hui to start a fight, but they seemed to have nothing to do with it.
Anyway, Concubine Rou can't give birth to a child. For concubines like them who have a prince, there is no threat at all, and they are not afraid that she will ascend to the position of queen.
Without a son to rely on, is that position so easy to sit in?
Concubine Rong, on the other hand, is relying on her own belly, but she still doesn't know how ambitious she is. If another prince is born, their life will not be easy.
Concubine Guigui and Concubine Hui were happy to see Concubine Rou snatching the emperor away from Concubine Rong. Not only were they not jealous, they even secretly helped Concubine Rou several times.
Concubine Rong was furious, but she couldn't figure out what tricks Concubine Rou used to keep the emperor firmly in her hands.
No, she had finally managed to win back the emperor's heart by relying on her strong belly. If she was so cold, even if she gave birth to a prince, she would still be unpopular.
"Mother Song, prepare that incense for me."
Nanny Song, whom Concubine Rong calls, was brought into the palace from her natal family and is Concubine Rong's true confidant.
Nanny Song was startled and hurriedly advised:
"Mother, you are pregnant now. You are still in the first three months, so you can't have sex. It's better to endure it. It won't be too late to worry about it after you give birth to the child."
Concubine Rong turned her head and glared at Nanny Song fiercely.
"Are you asking me to wait another eight or nine months?"
When she realized that the person next to her was Nanny Song, who had been following her for many years, Concubine Rong softened her tone again.
"Mother Song, it's okay. Please prepare some soothing incense for me. I just want the emperor to stay in my palace and I won't do that."
Mother Song understood Concubine Rong's thoughts and led the emperor to become addicted to Concubine Rong. If she allowed the emperor to sleep peacefully, it would not affect the fetus in Concubine Rong's belly, and she could also create an image of her being favored in the minds of others. It's just that.
…
"My Lady, that incense is too harmful to the body. You used it originally because you wanted to conceive a dragon seed, but now you have achieved your wish. If you use it again, I'm afraid the emperor's body will not be able to withstand it."
The expression on Concubine Rong's face turned a bit sinister.
"Hmph, he is going to abandon me, why should I care about his body? Promoting me to a noble concubine as soon as possible is the most important thing."
Otherwise, once the emperor really has some shortcomings, how can she be willing to be suppressed by those three bitches for the rest of her life?
Nanny Song was so frightened that she looked around. Concubine Rong was too careless. Can she say this openly? If the emperor listened to her, she would be beheaded.
But she also knew Concubine Rong's temperament and she couldn't persuade her, so she had no choice but to follow orders and prepare.
Concubine Rong put on delicate makeup, looked at the box of balm in front of her, raised her two fingers to apply some, and touched it on her neck, wrists, and clothes.
"Let's go and pay respects to the emperor."
After Concubine Rong and Nanny Song left, in the darkness, a little palace maid quietly left Concubine Rong's bedroom and hurried towards the Imperial Hospital.
When Doctor Zhang saw the little palace maid, he walked a few steps outside and found a secluded place.
The little palace maid hurriedly followed up, looked at no one around, and spoke in a low voice.
"Doctor Zhang, Concubine Rong, are using that incense again."
When Doctor Zhang saw her, he already had a suspicion in his mind, but when it was actually confirmed, his heartbeat could not help but accelerate.
Being a crown princess is really exciting. He has been an imperial physician for most of his life and has never done such a thrilling thing. He suddenly felt a little excited.
But he did not forget what the Crown Princess told him. He took out a small porcelain bottle and handed it to the young palace maid.
"I understand. The Crown Princess asked me to pass this on to you. Please go back quickly."
The little palace maid was stunned for a moment, then she took the small porcelain vase handed over by Dr. Zhang and gave a salute to Dr. Zhang.
"Thank you, Crown Princess, and thank you, Doctor Zhang."
Dr. Zhang waved his hand and looked at the little palace maid running away with pity in his eyes. This must be the one the Crown Princess was talking about, Can'er who was beaten all over with bruises.
Can'er sneaked back to the house where she lived. At this moment, everyone who slept with her was at work. She was the only one in the house.
She preciously opened the bottle cap and smelled it, it was like golden sore medicine. Chaner's big teardrops just rolled down her face, but she bit her lips tightly and did not cry.
In this cold palace, even crying is a sin. Her parents can't give her a trace of care, but the extremely noble Crown Princess still misses her, a little palace maid.
In the emperor's palace, the emperor's eyes were a little blurry. He looked at Concubine Rong as if he were looking at a seductive temptress, and even extended an invitation to him.
"Your Majesty, please go to my concubine tonight. I will serve you well."
The emperor pulled Concubine Rong to his side.
"No need to bother, just stay in my palace."
Seeing that the situation was not good, Eunuch Fu stepped forward to remind him.
"Your Majesty, Concubine Rong is still pregnant. Be careful of hurting the dragon seed."
Concubine Rong cursed in her heart, but she didn't dare to do anything to Eunuch Fu. Eunuch Fu had been with the emperor longer than those of them.
After hearing Eunuch Fu's words, the emperor's expression became clear for a moment. Concubine Rong raised her hand again and touched the emperor's face, just in time to let the emperor smell the fragrance on her wrist.
The emperor had already forgotten what Eunuch Fu had just reminded him. He stood up and was about to take Concubine Rong to Yunyu. However, Concubine Rong pushed her away. She backed away and said seductively:
"Your Majesty, here comes my concubine."
In her bedroom, she uses soothing incense so that old foxes like Eunuch Fu won't catch her clues.
At this time, the little eunuch outside came in to report.
"Your Majesty, Doctor Zhang is here to give you a safe pulse."
The emperor was a little irritable.
"It seems I didn't summon him."
It’s not the day to take the pulse regularly. If you don’t go forward or backward, why do you ask for a safe pulse?
"Your Majesty, Doctor Zhang said that His Highness the Crown Prince was worried about your health, so he arranged for him to come and take your pulse again."
Listening to the little eunuch's words, Concubine Rong clenched her teeth. Could it be that this prince had calculated the time and came specifically to ruin her good deeds?
If this is the prince's problem, it will be delayed because of her. When the emperor reacts, will she still have a good life in the future?
Concubine Rong weighed it again and again, and reluctantly said to the emperor:
"Your Majesty, the dragon body is important. You'd better let Dr. Zhang take your pulse first. I'm waiting for you back in the palace. You must come."
Concubine Rong said and withdrew. The emperor felt itchy, but he couldn't shake the prince's rare filial piety.
"Let him in."
Quickly check his pulse so that he can go to Concubine Rong.
