Beibei reluctantly tugged on Yuan Guibi's sleeves.
, nodded: "Then you should come early tomorrow."
"Don't worry." Yuan Guibi smiled at Chu Yunning and turned to leave.
Looking at Concubine Yuan's back, Chu Yunning fell into deep thought.
When Beibei went to learn Chinese calligraphy, she invited Bi Xiu: "
From tomorrow onwards, you will accompany Beibei. I want to see how charming Yuan Guifei is and how she coaxed Beibei to stick to her so much."
"yes!"
At this time, the little palace maid came to report: "Chu Shang Palace, Concubine Mei is pregnant. Please go and have a look."
Chu Yunning frowned. The baby in Concubine Mei's belly was only more than seven months old. It was not such a good thing to have fetal force at this time.
Without thinking too much, Chu Yunning rushed to the hospital with the medicine box.
.
As soon as he arrived at the door, he heard screams coming from the house, and Chu Yunning's heart sank.
"Chu Shanggong, Li Meiren has a stomachache. Please go and have a look."
There are three pregnant women living under the same roof. Currently, two pregnant women have abdominal pain. What does that mean?
Chu Yunning went to see Concubine Mei first. Concubine Mei was holding her belly and wailing. Her lower body was already red. When she saw Chu Yunning, it was like seeing her savior.
"Chu Shanggong, save me!"
Chu Yunning put her fingertips on Concubine Mei's wrist, her brows furrowed, she still couldn't guard against it after so long.
"Don't worry yet, you are in labor."
Concubine Mei was very anxious: "What should we do? The child is only seven months old."
"You survived today, but the rest of your life's blessings are behind you. Listen to me." Chu Yunning sent someone to report to the emperor, and also had people surround the palace, not allowing anyone to enter or exit.
"Take a deep breath first to conserve your strength." Chu Yunning said as he directed the midwife to come, always paying attention to the fetus.
Fortunately, it was discovered in time, otherwise one step would have killed two people.
"Concubine Mei, there are only two ways before you."
Chu Yunning frowned. She had a good impression of Concubine Mei and did not want her to die.
Concubine Mei was frightened and cried when she heard this, and held Chu Yunning's hand tightly.
"The little prince's amniotic fluid has drained and there is no sign of finger opening.
, If you want the little prince to come out safe and sound, I have no choice but to perform an autopsy. From now on, you will never be able to obtain holy favors. If you want holy favors, you can only wait until your fingers are opened, and the little prince will inevitably be stillborn." Chu Yunning stared.
Asked with an eyebrow.
Mei Fei cried in fright, and after thinking for a while, she gritted her teeth: "
I beg Chu Shang Palace to grant me permission, I want the emperor’s son!”
The little prince is the greatest guarantee. What will happen if he has no heirs?
"Okay, since you can bear it, I'm ready.
"
"Chu Shang Palace, the lives of me and the little prince are all in your hands!" Concubine Mei was sweating profusely in pain and her face was pale.
Chu Yunning immediately asked someone to prepare scissors, alcohol and needle and thread.
"Chu Shanggong, is this possible?" the midwife was surprised.
.
"Everyone listens to me." Chu Yunning found someone he trusted.
: "When the child comes out, you are not allowed to hand it over to anyone. You must hold it with your own hands."
"yes."
After everything was arranged, Chu Yunning was ready to help Concubine Mei deliver the baby.
"Ah!" Mei Fei's scream pierced her eardrums.
Chu Yunning's hands were covered with blood, and she finally delivered the little prince an hour later.
The weak cry of the little prince came, and Emperor Mingwen
My hanging heart slowly dropped, and I asked anxiously: "How is the child?"
"Don't worry, Your Majesty, everything is fine with the little prince." Chu Yunning walked out with the little prince in her arms, soaked to the skin.
The little prince was born prematurely and weighed just over four pounds. He cried weakly like a cat and curled up.
, the whole body is blue and purple. Fortunately, it was discovered in time. Apart from being a little weak, which needs to be taken care of carefully, there is no other problem.
"Concubine Mei went through a lot of hardships to give birth to the little prince. It was really hard."
Being able to endure it without any anesthesia is very difficult for most people.
Emperor Mingwen waved his hand: "Come here and draw up a decree to confer Concubine Mei as Noble Concubine Mei..."
"It's not good, Concubine Mei is bleeding profusely." Po Wen ran out in a hurry.
Chu Yunning was shocked, turned around and went inside, and saw Concubine Mei dying, with a hairpin stuck in her heart and blood flowing all over the floor.
The palace maid was still lying on the ground, holding a dagger in her hand and stabbing her heart, she had expired.
"Damn it!" Chu Yunning tried to save Mei Fei but it was too late and she died.
Fortunately, the little prince was not handed over to others just now, otherwise even the little prince might not be able to be saved.
"Investigate, investigate carefully for me, dig deep enough to find out the truth behind the scenes!" Emperor Mingwen said angrily.
At this time, there was also movement in Li Meiren's belly. Chu Yunning rushed to see Li Meiren. She also had a seven-month-old belly, which was exactly the same as Mei Fei's symptoms.
"Chu Shanggong, I want a child, please save my child."
Li Meiren squeezed Chu Shanggong's hand tightly: "I know who is plotting behind this."
That person must not have thought that Chu Yun Ning could give birth to a child, dissect the child, save the little prince, and not be able to kill the little prince, so he underestimated Chu Yun Ning's arrangement.
As for the pear beauty, because she has a princess in her belly, she is not a target, but she just happened to meet her.
The situation of Li Meiren was much better than that of Mei Fei. It took only an hour to give birth to the baby. The little princess looked about the same age as the little prince. They were both premature and very weak.
.
Li Meiren's life is better than that of Mei Fei. After the child is born, the people around her will be guarded by people whom Emperor Mingwen can trust.
"Both children are very weak and need careful care
, there can be no more mistakes." Chu Yunning said.
Emperor Mingwen nodded and ordered that all the servants in the entire courtyard be imprisoned and interrogated one by one.
"Mei Fei and Li Meiren both caused the disease by eating food in their mouths.
Terrified."
She strictly controls who comes and goes. How did this person get in?
"This child is being raised in the Yizheng Palace. I want to see who dares to do something under my nose!" Emperor Mingwen said.
"yes!"
Because Li Meiren gave birth to the eldest princess, she was named Li Noble Concubine.
Chu Yunning came to visit Li Meiren: "You said before that you knew who framed her, what clues were there?"
Li Meiren looked evasive and shook her head: "I'm talking nonsense. I'm just saying this to ask you to save me. It's my fault, Chu Shang Palace."
Chu Yunning was not surprised by this at all, and said calmly: "Concubine Mei is half as smart as you and she won't die."
.”
"What about the little prince?" Li Meiren asked, and said regretfully: "It's a pity that the little prince lost his biological mother when he was born. The little prince and the little princess were born on the same day. If you don't mind, I am willing to raise the little prince."
Chu Yunning squinted at the noble concubine: "The little prince has a distinguished status. How many people are thinking about raising him. According to the rules, he must be a concubine or above. After all, the son is as valuable as the mother."
This sentence made Li Guifei's face turn red, and she was one step away from becoming the concubine.
If you can raise the little prince, you will have prosperity and wealth for the rest of your life.
Chu Yunning looked at her and almost had the word ambition written on her face: "My concubine, it's better not to worry about the little prince. There are many concubines in the palace who have never given birth to children. It would be good if you can keep the little princess by your side.
.”
Afraid that she still harbored illusions, Chu Yunning simply poured out a basin of cold water to extinguish her ambitions.
Concubine Li Gui immediately said: "How can that be done? The little princess is the child I gave birth to after a narrow escape. No one is allowed to take her away."
"If you don't want to be taken away, just be honest. With the eldest princess, Li Guifei's life will not be too bad for the rest of her life. Sometimes being too pushy is not necessarily a good thing."
Chu Yunning said coldly.
Concubine Li was so frightened that she immediately shut up.
Before leaving, Chu Yunning looked up and down at Li Guifei.
, as if he thought of something but couldn't catch his thoughts, he shook his head and left.
Emperor Mingwen personally investigated the murder case of Concubine Mei with unprecedented intensity.
Finally, on the third day, Concubine Li was found. It turned out that Concubine Li was jealous that Concubine Mei was pregnant with a little prince.
, he asked the maid next to him to pick apricots in the name of harming others, and while he was out, he found a way to reincarnate the fetuses of the two of them.
It was precisely because of Li Gui that the people behind the scenes were given the opportunity to take advantage of the chaos.
"It's so stupid!" Emperor Mingwen was furious and stripped Li Guifei of her title on the spot and threw her into the cold palace.
He deprived Li Guifei of the right to raise the little princess and took the two children to the Yizheng Palace to raise them.
Chu Yunning came to visit her two children every day, feeling pity and helplessness for losing her mother at such a young age.
"How is the child?" Emperor Mingwen asked. He looked very haggard in just two days.
"The little princess's health is better than that of the little prince.
"
Concubine Mei drank a large bowl of the rebirth medicine without any precaution, while Concubine Li only drank a small portion for fear of something happening.
, so the little princess is physically stronger than the little prince.
"Does the Emperor intend to keep the child in the Yizheng Palace?
?”
Emperor Mingwen remained silent.
It had only been two days, but already a minister had reported to find a mother for the two children.
In the name of visiting, the concubine in the harem was thinking about the custody of the two children, even if she got any one of them, she would be able to rely on them.
Especially Concubine Xia, she has already made it clear that she wants to raise the little prince.
She said that she dreamed of the little prince coming to her crying and shouting every night. It was the dead child who had returned.
No one believed this, and Emperor Mingwen repeatedly found excuses to refuse.
"Your Majesty, Concubine Xia is here."
No, someone outside the palace came to report that the imperial concubine has arrived.
.
Emperor Mingwen frowned, but before he could send him away, Concubine Xia had already come in carrying a food box.
"I, my concubine, pay my respects to the Emperor."
Emperor Mingwen's eyebrows furrowed, and Concubine Xia walked directly to the child, and approached with a smile on her face: "It looks a little older, but Chu Shang Palace is capable and can take good care of it."
"After all, I am someone who has been through this before and knows a little bit about it."
As soon as he finished speaking, Emperor Wen Ming said: "I don't trust anyone except you, the young prince. Chu Shang Palace's superb medical skills will definitely protect the young prince."
Chu Yunning's eyelids twitched.
"Your Majesty, do you mean to hand over the little prince to Chu Shang Palace to raise him?" Concubine Xia was surprised and looked obviously displeased.
"Chu Shanggong has given birth to a child and is skilled in medicine. It was Chu Shanggong who saved the little prince's life. Leave it to Chu Shanggong. I can rest assured."
To others, the little prince may be a treasure and a tool for self-reliance, but to Chu Yunning, he is a hot potato.
"minister......"
"Your Majesty, the little prince is weak. Chu Shanggong has to take care of the harem every day. How can he have time to take care of the little prince? I have nothing to do every day. Why don't I leave the little prince to my concubine to raise?" Concubine Xia said coquettishly.
Emperor Mingwen pointed to the little princess: "I will leave this child to you to raise."
"Does the imperial concubine miss the child, or does she want the little prince?"
Emperor Mingwen's face darkened, his question was clever.
, if you must have a child, why not a princess?
If you insist on wanting the prince, you have an agenda!
Concubine Xia immediately shook her head: "It is my blessing to be able to raise the little princess. I would like to thank you, Your Majesty."
I didn't dare to refuse, it was better than nothing. Besides, the little prince couldn't be raised by Chu Yunning all the time. After all, Chu Yunning would leave the palace sooner or later.
It's not too late to win over the little prince when he's older. At worst, he just needs to put in more effort over the years and visit the little prince often.
Emperor Mingwen's expression softened and he asked Concubine Xia to take the little princess away.
Concubine Xia reluctantly left, and Ergenzi finally became quiet.
Chu Yunning couldn't help it anymore: "Your Majesty, I am too busy to take care of the little prince. The little prince is too valuable."
, I don’t dare to make any mistakes, or I won’t be able to sleep.”
Emperor Mingwen glanced sideways at the sleeping little prince.
, said calmly: "This child cannot inherit the throne. When he is older, I canonize him as king and adopt him to Prince Lian."
As a son."
Chu Yunning was stunned: "Is this the emperor's eldest son?"
"So what, it's not my blood. Prince Lian has no children, so we can't cut off our relationship."
Hearing this, Chu Yunning was speechless. The prince's existence was just to block Youyou's mouth. Emperor Mingwen had already had other ideas in mind.
It’s just that I can’t mention it yet, an idea hidden deep in my heart.
"I can raise the little prince, but the emperor must guarantee that if something happens to the little prince, the emperor cannot blame me. I also swear on my life that I will never harm him and will do my best to protect him."
Tiger was still taking a nap, but she couldn't guarantee 100% that nothing would happen to the little prince.
Emperor Mingwen squinted at Chu Yunning: "You are very precious about your life."
"Your Majesty, can you agree?"
"allow!"
“What you say is unfounded.”
Emperor Mingwen glared at Chu Yunning: "You are getting bolder and bolder."
"I believe that the emperor is a wise king."
Stimulated by Chu Yunning, Emperor Mingwen had no choice but to write down the documents. Chu Yunning checked each word and then felt relieved.
After taking the little prince away, her cat-like cries made her heart itch and she couldn't help but tease him.
Beibei looked at the little prince and poked his face curiously.
"Mom, why is he so young?"
"He is just a few days old and is very weak. Beibei, you have to watch him."
Beibei nodded: "I have heard about Concubine Mei.
, Mom, don’t worry, I will definitely keep an eye on him, and when he grows up, I will teach him to read and write."
"good!"
At first she was worried that Beibei would reject the child, but now it seems that she was overly worried.
In order to protect Beibei's heart from changes, Chu Yunning was not close to the little prince, let alone ignored Beibei.
Bixiu takes care of the little prince most of the time.
.
"It's a pity that such a young child has lost his mother.
"When Concubine Yuan Gui came to visit Beibei, she glanced at the little prince from a distance and couldn't help but sigh: "This child looks very smart at first glance, and his features and eyes look like the emperor. When he grows up, he will definitely be a man of uprightness.
.”
Chu Yunning couldn't help but rolled her eyes when she heard this. What's the resemblance?
