Steal my marriage? Turn around and marry the tyrant to take the throne

Chapter 785: This matter must be reported to Concubine Chen (135 million)

The eldest princess has lived in the Cining Palace for so long, and Empress Dowager Liu knows her personality very well.

Neither the emperor nor Qingqing were good men and women, and no one knew how they gave birth to a child as kind-hearted as Yun'er.

Even though she missed her biological mother, she couldn't accept what Qingqing had done in her heart. The gap between mother and daughter was inevitable.

But Queen Mother Liu did not think this was a bad thing.

Qingqing is obviously an abandoned child, and it’s good that the eldest princess has separated from her from now on.

Empress Dowager Liu said, "I know about this, there is no need to delve into this matter."

"Yes."

Nanny Yuan continued, "That Concubine Chun...I wonder if she happened to say that when she met the eldest princess, or if she was thinking about something in her mind?"

Empress Dowager Liu did not take Concubine Chun seriously: "To put it bluntly, she is just a tribute from the Western Regions and will not amount to anything. If she wants to use Yun'er, she must have the ability to do so!"

……

After learning the news that Concubine Zhuang had been demoted, the Zhuang family did not plead for her, nor did they insist that she was wronged and asked the emperor to thoroughly investigate the matter.

Instead, he submitted several memorials in a row to apologize, saying that the Zhuang family had not taught their daughter well and asked the emperor to punish them.

Even the retired Master Zhuang sent a letter to the emperor by carrier pigeon.

In the letter, he did not act like an imperial teacher at all, his words were respectful and sincere, and there was also a hint of shame. He said that he had not taught his daughter well, which had caused so much trouble for His Majesty.

Imperial Tutor Zhuang also said that Concubine Zhuang had the audacity to deceive her superiors and subordinates and poison the concubines, which was unacceptable! The emperor was so gracious that he only demoted her from the fourth concubine to a concubine. This punishment was too light. She should be demoted to a commoner and sent to the cold palace to reflect on her mistakes.

Otherwise, since the Zhuang family had such an unfilial descendant, Master Zhuang would really feel ashamed to face his ancestors again.

Nangong Xuanyu couldn't help but think of the time when Jiang Shuren and Liu Shi made mistakes, the Duke of Zhenguo and the Duke of Dingguo used their family background to plead for her. Although it was called pleading, everyone could hear the threat in it.

Not only did Master Zhuang have many students throughout the government, but the Zhuang family also had great influence among the civil officials. When faced with the agreed matters, their attitudes were completely opposite to those of the Zhenguo Mansion and the Dingguo Mansion.

A heart of loyalty and patriotism!

As they did this, the emperor's anger towards Concubine Zhuang actually subsided a lot.

Now that the Zhuang family is officially being reused, even if everyone in the Zhuang family says so, the emperor cannot really punish Concubine Zhuang severely.

On the contrary, he praised the strategy proposed by Concubine Zhuang's uncle to defeat the enemy and gave him a reward.

This move was to tell others that what happened to Concubine Zhuang in the harem did not affect the Zhuang family's status in the previous dynasty.

At once, everyone understood the emperor’s meaning and were as enthusiastic towards the banker as before.

finally--

At the beginning of June, the issue of whether to fight or make peace with the Huns was finally settled.

The emperor officially issued an imperial decree, appointing General Zhou of the Zhou family and his son Zhou Yuxi to lead the army to fight against the Huns!

After the news spread, the atmosphere in the capital suddenly became tense!

But more people are filled with excitement!

After all, the Huns had repeatedly harassed the borders of the Great Zhou. Which person in the Great Zhou didn't want to completely defeat them and promote the prestige of the Celestial Empire?

Of course...the families of the soldiers can't help but worry.

But despite their concerns, they still strongly support this matter.

Defending one's country is the greatest honor for men!

Shen Zhinian in the palace also received a letter from Zhao Yungui.

She was already four months pregnant and thought her husband would be with her to give birth to the child. Unexpectedly, the Great Zhou went to war with the Xiongnu and both Zhou's father and son had to go to the battlefield.

It would be a lie for Zhao Yungui to say that he was not worried or upset.

But she knew from the beginning that she married into a military family, and that they would go to the battlefield sooner or later. Even if they died on the battlefield, it was normal...

Zhao Yungui could only pray in his heart that this battle would be a victory!

Shen Zhinian remembered that in his previous life, there had also been this battle between the Great Zhou and the Huns.

The Xiongnu were cunning, always running deep into the grassland when they couldn't win, and then taking advantage of their advantage to ambush the soldiers of the Great Zhou. After they had recovered, they would come back again.

So back and forth.

Even so, the Great Zhou won in the end!

Although it was only a narrow victory, both Zhou's father and son returned safely. At that time, Zhao Yungui's child had already been born, and when Zhou Yuxi returned home, she held her sweet and soft daughter in her arms.

However, Shen Zhinian couldn't tell Zhao Yun Guiming about these things, so he comforted his good friend in the letter.

……

Side hall.

Concubine Sun’s belly is already eight months old, and the bulge looks a little bigger than that of an ordinary pregnant woman.

Zhu Er looked at her round belly and asked curiously, "My lady's belly is so big, are you pregnant with twins?"

Concubine Sun gave Zhu'er a glare and said, "Nonsense."

"If it was twins, Doctor Tang would have definitely found it out long ago. How could he not know about it now?"

Zhu Er smiled shyly: "I was just curious because my lady's belly was so big. I have no intention of questioning the medical skills of Doctor Tang."

Tang Luochuan frowned, looked at Concubine Sun and asked, "Young lady's belly is bigger than that of an ordinary pregnant woman because she ate too much and the fetus has grown too big."

"When I came to check your pulse ten days ago, this was not the case. Has your lady eaten too much again during this period?"

Although ten days is a short time, the fetus in the late pregnancy grows very fast. If Concubine Sun eats too much, this situation will occur.

Zhu Er shook her head: "No, Doctor Tang."

"During this period, this servant and Nanny Lin have strictly controlled the young lady's diet. Nanny Lin has checked the portion size of her meals every time."

Lady Sun looked a little guilty...

Tang Luochuan looked at her with a sharp gaze: "For the health of my lady and the heir, I hope you will tell me the truth."

Lady Sun lowered her head and said, "I just occasionally...occasionally, I eat a little behind people's back..."

"Only a little bit really!"

Zhu Er opened her mouth in surprise: "My lady, I have been serving you all the time, and you still find a chance to cheat?!"

"And every little bit you say is a lot, okay..."

Nanny Lin also frowned: "Lady Sun, the fetus is too large. The mother will suffer a lot during delivery, and there is also the risk of dystocia."

"Imperial Doctor Tang has told you many times, why don't you listen?"

Zhu Er also felt a bit disappointed: "Aren't you afraid that Concubine Chen will be angry if she finds out?"

Lady Sun lowered her head in shame: "I didn't want to do that either, but I don't know why, I just can't control myself..."

"If I don't eat more, I'll feel itchy all over my body and I can't hold it in. It's really uncomfortable..."

Zhu Er sighed deeply: "My lady, your health and that of the heir are the most important!"

Nanny Lin also said seriously: "It seems that this old servant must report this matter to the Royal Concubine Chen."
