Chapter 217 Return to the Palace
Xie Yu ordered that this matter could not be refuted.
The concubines didn't expect that Li Shiwen's childbirth would help the Queen return to the palace.
Originally, the Queen had been away from the palace for half a year and would not be back for another two months.
Now, the queen returned to the palace early, catching them off guard, and everyone had different thoughts.
Zhang Yuyan breathed a sigh of relief. She had finally helped the Queen return to the palace early.
She stood up and said, "Your Majesty, Sister Li still needs someone by her side. I will take Doctor Wu in first. Your Majesty has been guarding all night and must be tired. Go back and rest first. You can come back in the evening."
Xie Yu nodded slightly
"Okay, Zhaoyi Yan, I'll leave Concubine Lan here to you. I'm waiting for your news. If there is anything, send someone to report to Taiwu Palace immediately."
Zhang Yuyan nodded. Haha, when the emperor heard that Sister Li was pregnant with a boy, his attitude immediately changed.
After Xie Yu left, Chen Mi stepped forward
"Yan Zhaoyi has worked hard. If anything happens, just send someone to call me."
Zhang Yuyan whispered, "Thank you, Madam Mifei."
After Chen Mi left, Sun Manrou wanted to go up and say a few sarcastic words, but Zhang Yuyan had no intention of listening to her. She turned around and took Wu Renlang into the inner room.
Only Sun Manrou was left with a cold face, and she left angrily.
Zheng Jin was the last one to leave, and as he left, he looked inside.
When everyone left, only Li Shiwen's people were left in the palace.
In the inner room, Li Shiwen was lying on the bed. After taking the medicine, his complexion had improved a lot. It was not as pale as before, and his stomach didn't hurt as much anymore.
Chun'er had already conveyed to her what the people outside had said just now.
The emperor's words of "going to the elder to save the younger" made her see clearly the emperor's cruelty and indifference.
For the rest of her life, she just wants her children to grow up safely and doesn't ask for anything else.
When Zhang Yuyan walked in, Li Shiwen waved with a wry smile on his lips.
"Sister, I know everything you said just now."
Wu Renlang automatically stepped aside, and Nanny and Chun'er also stepped aside to make room for Zhang Yuyan.
Zhang Yuyan sat beside the bed, looking at Li Shiwen and comforting her softly.
"Sister, you don't have to take the emperor's words to heart. Now, our goal has been achieved. The emperor has already sent people to invite the queen. The queen will be here in the evening. Sister, don't worry. With a child, there is hope. The emperor's favor is elusive. It won't be a bad thing for you to see it clearly as soon as possible. There is no need to be sad about it."
Li Shiwen endured the pain in her stomach.
"I've seen through it a long time ago, but today, I've given up even more. From now on, I don't ask for anything except my child."
Zhang Yuyan nodded
"Sister, just think positively."
Palace
When Lin Junxue received the news that Li Shiwen had a difficult labor, she got on the carriage without having time to pack anything.
Before leaving, Lin Junxue told Qiao Xin and others to pack up their things and then set off back to the palace, and she went ahead.
Fortunately, Qiao Xin and her friends had already started packing their luggage in the past few days, so they moved very quickly.
Only two hours later, Qiao Xin and her companions also set out for the palace.
White sun
All the concubines are waiting for news in their own palaces. When will the queen return?
Can Lan Guiji give birth safely and smoothly?
Elegant Palace
Chen Xier, who had not yet arrived, learned that Lin Junxue was returning to the palace. She fell into a chair, her face as pale as a ghost, and her hands trembling.
She held on to the edge of the table until the armor broke and blood oozed out.
She spent a large sum of money to bribe the midwife and asked her father to trap the midwife's family.
It was to let Li Shiwen die with the baby in her belly on the day of delivery.
After all, he was one step behind and was discovered by Zhang Yuyan, the new imperial concubine, and his plan failed.
It even allowed the bitch Lin Junxue to take this opportunity to return to the palace.
Zi Shuang was so scared that he squatted down quickly and immediately called someone to bring medicine.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, why are you doing this? Even if the midwife failed, Concubine Lan Guiji is in labor now. It is not easy to give birth to the baby. Your Majesty will surely get what you want."
Chen Xier sneered grimly, becoming more and more crazy
"Got what I wanted? I planned so much, but what did I get in the end? Didn't it still let Li Shiwen escape? What if she had a difficult delivery? What if she really gave birth to a prince? What about the child in my belly? The child in my belly will no longer be the only one. How can I tolerate this? And the queen, she is actually going back to the palace, this bitch, bitch..."
Zi Shuang said cautiously, "My queen, the dragon fetus in your belly is the auspicious sign predicted by Master Qingxin. How can it be compared with the child in Lan Guiji's belly? Even if it is a prince, it is not as precious as the prince in your belly. Relax your mind. Besides, what does it matter if the queen returns to the palace? As long as the queen gives birth to the child safely, there is nothing she can't ask for."
Chen Xier put her hands on her belly, her eyes dark
"You are right, so what if the queen returns to the palace? Yes, you are right, I am pregnant with a prince."
Evening
Along the way, Lin Junxue hurried on his way, and the Ferghana horse was riding very fast.
Lin Junxue did not rest along the way, and finally arrived at the palace before sunset.
Gao Cheng was already waiting for Lin Junxue at the palace gate. When he saw Lin Junxue dressed in riding clothes, looking so heroic, he was stunned for a moment.
The Queen seems to be even more beautiful now. It seems that she is having a good time in the palace.
Lin Junxue got out of the car neatly. Gao Cheng came to his senses and hurried forward to greet her respectfully.
"Hello, Empress. You must have been exhausted after traveling all the way here. You should go back to the palace to wash up before going to Concubine Lan's palace. The Emperor just went there after dealing with the memorials. Concubine Mi, Concubine Chen, and Concubine Sun Shunyi, Concubine Shu, and Concubine Si are all here."
Lin Junxue waved her hand and strode in, with Gao Cheng following quickly behind her.
Lin Junxue had a blank expression on her face. As she walked, she said, "No need, Eunuch Gao. I will go directly to Concubine Lan's palace. How is Concubine Lan doing now?"
Gao Cheng hurriedly said, "Empress, Concubine Lan is having a difficult delivery. Concubine Yan and Imperial Physician Wu have been watching her the whole time. Imperial Physician Wu just said that if she doesn't give birth within an hour, I'm afraid Concubine Lan and the baby in her belly will be in great danger. Your Majesty, you've returned just in time."
Lin Junxue nodded and didn't ask any more questions along the way.
As soon as Lin Junxue entered the hall, she saw Xie Yu sitting on the high seat, Chen Mi, Sun Manrou and others sitting according to their positions.
As soon as she appeared, Xie Yu's eyes lit up at the first sight of her. He immediately stood up and took the initiative to greet her.
Four months later, Xie Yu was amazed when he saw Lin Junxue again.
The other concubines were also extremely jealous. It would have been fine for the Queen to have been away from the palace for four months, but why did she come back at such a fast pace without looking at all embarrassed?
On the contrary, a simple riding outfit makes her look more graceful.
However, the Queen's appearance seemed to have become even worse in the four months since she left the palace.
Lin Junxue walked in step by step, looked at Xie Yu who stood up, and greeted him.
"Your Majesty's Blessing"
Chen Mi and the others also stood up and said, "Your Majesty, the Queen, may you live in peace and happiness."
Xie Yu reached out and helped Lin Junxue up. His eyes were as deep as the sea at night. He looked at Lin Junxue and held her hand with a little force.
"Queen, thank you for your hard work."
