Rumor Has It That I’m Pregnant with His Highness’ Child

Chapter 338 Shu Guifei's Calculation

Xiao Wanyan succinctly repeated what Liu Zhi said just now, and finally said.

"Concubine Shu Gui must have deliberately pretended to be unconscious, taking the opportunity to delay the time so that someone could quietly send the lark out of the palace.

As long as we can't find Lark, we can't do anything about her. "

Yu Weiwei thought for a while and said: "Skylark is a person in Biquan Palace, she was suddenly sent out of the palace, wouldn't the Queen Mother have any opinions?"

Xiao Yan patiently explained.

"You don't know the situation in the palace.

The Queen Mother was the cousin of Concubine Shu Gui, and the two were very close on weekdays.

Yunque is just a little palace maid, far less than the status of Concubine Shu Gui in the heart of the queen mother.

Even if something happened to her, the queen mother wouldn't care. "

It sounds cruel, but this is the real situation in the palace. In the eyes of the superiors, the eunuchs and maids are like ants under their feet.

No one cares about the life and death of ants.

Yu Weiwei remembered that she had seen Empress Dowager Deng's closeness to Concubine Shu in Biquan Palace. She thought that Concubine Shu would have a sweet mouth, but now she realized that the two of them were cousins.

In this case, her strategy of asking the Queen Mother to come forward to put pressure on her won't work.

Yu curling asked: "Then what do we do next?"

Xiao Lian: "Go and track down the whereabouts of the skylark first, and see if you can intercept the person?"

The group hurried out of the palace.

Inside the Jingque Palace.

Willow Branch helped Concubine Shu to sit up.

"Prince Concubine, the servants have already done what you said. Prince Lang can only leave when he can't see Yunque's people."

Concubine Shu slightly nodded: "You did a good job."

At this time, the sixth prince, Shen Rui, came.

He hurried to the bedside, concerned.

"My son is even anxious when he hears that his mother and concubine is ill. What's wrong with you? Is it serious?"

When Concubine Shu saw her son, her eyes softened involuntarily.

"Don't worry, Ben Gong is fine, sit down and talk."

Willow branches brought the round stool and put it by the bed.

Shen Rui sat on the stool, still looking at Concubine Shu, seeing her pale, very distressed.

"My son heard that you were sickened by the king of Langjun. The servant of the king of Langjun is too much. He has a little power in his hands, and he doesn't even care about you, so my son is going to be ruthless. Teach him a lesson, vent your anger for the mother and concubine!"

When he was done, he got up.

Concubine Shu Gui hurriedly stopped him: "Don't be impulsive, Prince Lang is highly trusted by the emperor. If you do something to him, the emperor will definitely not spare you lightly."

Shen Rui was not reconciled: "But you have been sickened by him, so let's just forget about it?"

Concubine Shu Gui glanced at Liu Zhi.

Willow branches understood and retreated with the others.

Only Concubine Shu and Shen Rui were left in the house.

Concubine Shu said slowly.

"Rui'er, you are already an adult, and there are some things that this palace can't hide from you.

Prince Lang is investigating the case of Concubine Yue, and now he has found Ben Gong's head.

If he is allowed to continue the investigation, Ben Gong is likely to lose his life. "

Shen Rui said without thinking.

"Let him check! Anyway, you haven't done anything, Mother Concubine. No matter how he checks, it will only be a waste of time in the end!"

Concubine Shu Gui looked at him with a complicated expression.

Shen Rui's heart skipped a beat when she saw it.

He asked subconsciously.

"Could it be that Concubine Yue's death really has something to do with you?"

For so many years, Concubine Shu has always protected her son very well.

She tried her best not to let Shen Rui know about the things that were hidden in the dark.

But it can't be hidden any longer.

Concubine Shu took a deep breath and said slowly: "You were just born back then, I don't know how favored Concubine Yue is, if she and the child in her belly are allowed to live, both Ben Gong and you can only be their foil. Whether it is the current position of the imperial concubine in this palace, or your qualification to compete for the throne in the future, it will no longer exist."

Shen Rui looked at her blankly, unable to speak confidently.

"So you killed Concubine Yue?"

Concubine Shu felt very uncomfortable admitting that she had killed someone in front of the child.

She subconsciously avoided Shen Rui's gaze and said in a low voice.

"I don't want to be a foil for Concubine Moon forever, and I don't want you to be an idle prince in the future.

Any stumbling block that stands in our way, this palace will remove it.

Concubine Yue is like this, so is Prince Lang. "

Shen Rui received too much information all at once, and felt that his brain was not enough.

He asked nonchalantly, "What do you want to do to Prince Lang?"

A ruthless look appeared in Concubine Shu's eyes.

"It turned out that Ben Gong wanted to lead the suspect to Empress Wen.

As long as Empress Wen dies, the seventh prince will no longer be a threat, and you will be the future heir.

But you shouldn't, you shouldn't, kill a prince of Langjun halfway!

He ruined Ben Gong's plan and pointed the finger at Ben Gong.

This palace must not allow him to live any longer. "

Shen Rui had never seen a mother-in-law like this before, and he couldn't help trembling in his heart.

he said cautiously.

"King Langjun has no conclusive evidence, and he cannot convict you."

Concubine Shu sighed: "You are still too naive.

A person like Prince Lang, once doubts arise, will definitely find out.

Although this palace sent the lark out of the palace today, but this is only a temporary solution.

Without the skylark, Prince Lang will continue to investigate from other aspects.

Once let him find out the truth, this palace is over.

Rui Er, you shouldn't want to see your mother and concubine die, right? "

Shen Rui hurriedly shook his head: "Of course not! Concubine Mu must live well. Anyone who wants to hurt Concubine Mu is my enemy!"

Hearing this, Concubine Shu felt very relieved.

"Good son, this palace did not raise you for nothing."

Shen Rui said hesitantly, "But Prince Lang is not an ordinary person. He is very skilled, and he is greatly used by his father. It is very difficult for us to deal with him."

Concubine Shu Gui had already calculated this.

she whispered.

"Of course we can't directly take action against Prince Lang, this matter has to be done under the guise of others."

"what do you mean?"

Concubine Shu's eyes lit up, and she slowly told her plan.

"In a short while, the mission of Chen Kingdom will arrive at Yujing.

At the beginning, it was because the Prince of Langjun stabbed the bar horizontally that the Chen Kingdom's plan to attack Liaodong County completely failed.

Those Chen Country people must have hated Prince Lang.

We can cooperate with the Chen Guo mission.

We are in charge of providing opportunities, and they are in charge of killing people.

After it was done, they left Yujing, even the emperor couldn't do anything about it. "

Shen Rui hesitated: "But after all, they are from the Chen Kingdom, wouldn't we be able to connect the enemy inside and outside?"

Concubine Shu glared at him.

"What nonsense? The embassy of the Chen Kingdom is here to seek peace. I heard that the emperor is planning to have a relationship with them. They are no longer enemies. How can they talk about the enemy inside and outside?"

Seeing that her son was still a little hesitant, Concubine Shu continued.

"You take a long-term view. Your cooperation with Chen Guo this time is equivalent to establishing a friendly relationship with them. When you compete for the throne in the future, maybe Chen Guo can help you."

Thinking of the crown prince, Shen Rui felt like he was pouring hot oil in his heart, and he suddenly became hot.

He nodded vigorously: "Just do as the mother-in-law said!"
