Chapter 486 Intentional Provocation
As soon as Lin Shuran and Wen Shi stepped into the Queen Mother's Renshou Palace, an eunuch ran in to announce the good news. The emperor was more impatient than they imagined. In an instant, the news that Concubine Yun was pregnant again spread throughout the palace.

"Is this true?!" The queen mother immediately stood up from the phoenix chair, staring at the eunuch who announced the good news and asked.

"It's true to report back to the Empress Dowager, and the Empress Dowager Yun is happy again!" The little eunuch bowed happily and replied.

"Okay, okay, this is really great. This is the good news that the Ai family wants to hear the most. There are rewards!" The concubine and wife were waiting, she was afraid that too many people would disturb Concubine Yun, so she took Aunt Chang to Concubine Yun's Palace first.

In the main hall of Renshou Palace, Concubine Jing and Concubine Xian were there, as well as other noble ladies in Beijing. When everyone heard the good news, they all took the initiative to congratulate Wen and Lin Shuran. The emperor's favorite, now that she is pregnant again, if she gives birth to a prince, then it's hard to say what her future position will be.

"When my wife was outside the palace, I often heard that Concubine Yun was gentle and kind, and she was very much loved in the palace. Today I saw it with my own eyes. It is true. The empress dowager was as happy as she was a grandmother for the first time when she heard the good news for the first time! "Among the sound of congratulations, Lin Shuran heard a discordant voice. Following the voice, she saw Mrs. Liu Rong, Mrs. Chen's young lady, standing beside Xianfei. Unexpectedly, she also entered the palace.

Concubine Xian is the daughter of the Chen family in Dongling. Although she was almost downgraded because of the Prime Minister Chen Yanzhi's incident, fortunately she is the biological mother of the fourth prince, and the Chen family in Dongling has clearly drawn a line from Chen Yanzhi. Only then did she keep her position in the palace, but she was also rejected by the emperor since then, and she was almost abandoned to the cold palace.

She can still hold on to the ups and downs for a while, and as time goes on, one day she will regain the emperor's heart, and her son will grow up. By then, Empress Wei will probably be gone, and the emperor will always have a new queen.

Concubine Xian deliberately showed disappointment on her face, then she looked at Concubine Jing and said, "Sister, don't mind, my brother and sister speak more straightforwardly. When my sister gave birth, and I gave birth to the emperor's son, the Queen Mother didn't take the initiative to go. I have visited in the palace, and this eccentricity is too obvious!"

Concubine Xian was sitting close to Concubine Jing, she deliberately lowered her voice when she spoke, but others didn't hear clearly, Concubine Jing just had a flash of deep meaning in her eyes, and then she replied with a smile: "My sister said this, what can I do?" Don't mind, it's up to the emperor and the empress dowager whoever they like, Sister Yunfei is a lucky person, she deserves to be favored."

"I don't believe you're not jealous!" Concubine Xian responded with a smile when she saw Concubine Jing's indifferent attitude, she couldn't help but mocked in her heart, and then said, "Sister said, Concubine Yun is indeed the most The lucky person, she has the Beichuan Lin family and the Wen family as supporters behind her, her father is the current imperial tutor, and her younger sister is married to Xu Junze, the most trusted general of the emperor. Her younger sister is also a good means. The Wangfu and Marquis of Wu'an's families are very close, not to mention that the third prince is entrusted to her to be raised, if she gives birth to a prince in the future, who can be compared with her. I don't dare to have any hope, I only hope that my son will grow up healthy and healthy and be crowned as a prince. Sister, don’t forget that the lost child of Concubine Yun, the Queen Mother is yours. From now on..."

Concubine Xian covered her lips lightly and smiled, she hesitated to speak and gave Concubine Jing a look, but Concubine Jing gave her a cold look, she knew that Concubine Xian was deliberately trying to provoke the relationship between her and Concubine Yun, Concubine Yun had a miscarriage back then, and she was just being used by others. The queen mother and the emperor forgave her after finding out what happened, and Concubine Yun did not blame her. She has been trying her best to make up for her mistakes over the years. She never entered her palace after this incident, and she knew that he still cared about what happened back then.

The Zhao family's royal rule is to establish a heir and not to establish an elder. Concubine Jing knows in her heart that with the abilities of her and her mother's family, she has never thought about this position, but her son, the second prince, is seven years old and is very smart and studious. , Ministers have already started to come to her, saying that they want to support her son to fight for the heir. The position of empress was never what she wanted, but would the position of heir apparent be what her son wanted?

Concubine Xian's words didn't move her, but they also cast a small stone in the lake of her heart, and then looked at Wen's mother and daughter who were surrounded by noble ladies to congratulate her, Concubine Jing's eyes also had a different look. that look.

Liu Rong, who was standing quietly by the side, was always secretly observing Concubine Jing's expression. When Concubine Jing looked at Lin Shuran and Wen Shi, a strange smile appeared on the corner of her mouth. She knew that human nature cannot withstand temptation. Who doesn't have ambitions and desires, jealousy and unwillingness in their hearts, and who would not want to fight for fame and wealth at their fingertips!

Lin Shuran saw Liu Rong, heard what she said, and saw Concubine Xian and Concubine Jing sitting chatting together and looking in her direction from time to time, the alarm bells in her heart began to ring, her sister was pregnant It is a good thing, but as the emperor's woman, it is not necessarily a good thing to be pregnant and doted on.

Especially at the palace banquet afterwards, the empress dowager and the emperor Zhao You cared and cared for Concubine Yun in every possible way, which naturally attracted the envy and jealousy of the emperor's other women. Lin Shuran was even more worried about her sister's situation in the palace .

So after the palace banquet was over, she asked people to invite Imperial Physician Mei, hoping that he would take good care of her sister when he was in the palace, and that the soups and medicines he ate must be carefully reviewed, so as not to be taken advantage of by anyone.

As an imperial physician who often walked around the palace, imperial physician Mei didn't know about the struggles among the women in the harem, so he promised Lin Shuran that someone would take special care of Concubine Yun.

Wen Shi also thought of this, and after the palace banquet, she talked to Concubine Yun alone about the mother-daughter relationship, telling her to be more careful in her diet and behavior in the future. , Concubine Yun also complied.

"Ma'am, the young lady of the Dongling Chen family has been very active in the capital recently, and she has established a lot of relationships. Moreover, the Dongling Chen family seems to want to take advantage of this opportunity to send someone to the palace. Nanjiang Ma There is also a beautiful girl coming to the palace." Lin Shuran asked Mei to pay attention to the whereabouts of the Chen family and Liu Rong, and Tianmei brought back news this day.

Mei also told Lin Shuran that Chen Zhengkun, the young patriarch of the Chen family, had gone to look for Xu Mingchen again, and was planning to trick Xu Mingchen recently, so that Xu Mingchen would follow the arrangement of the Chen family in the future.

"The Chen family really has no peace for a moment, go find out how they plan to deal with Brother Chen?" Lin Shuran ordered Mei with a sullen face.
