The imperial concubine favors the crown of the harem

Chapter 192
Everyone was still looking at the fourth prince, talking about it.

I saw that Concubine Yinggui had been tidied up inside.

Then he said in a slightly tired voice.

"Mother, let the Fourth Prince go to the wet nurse first. After a few days, when I feel better, I will talk to all the sisters."

As soon as she opened her mouth, the others felt embarrassed even if they wanted to stay.

So the two congratulated each other knowingly and interestingly, and then left.

And the fourth prince finally went to the wet nurse after being watched repeatedly.

Perhaps because of his health, he eats very well.

The wet nurses were amazed, it was rare to see a child who could swallow like this.

The wife of the minister was so happy that she couldn't close her mouth from ear to ear.

Concubine Yinggui was weak after giving birth and fell asleep not long after.

And when the entire Yueyue Palace was still immersed in joy, the sound of broken lamps came from Yuxiu Palace not far away.

Concubine Yi's face was very sullen at the moment, if she wasn't a woman, her aura might be beyond the reach of a general on the battlefield.

"My cousin is really stupid, he was used to it by his grandmother. He can be released after a period of reflection in prison, how dare he..."

The original expression of coldness on his face was now covered with dark clouds.

If this idiot cousin was in front of her, she would have kicked him to death long ago.

So as not to tarnish the Liu family's reputation!
Ruan Ming, who was standing beside him, looked indifferent, but his eyes were extremely sharp.

In his opinion, what the old lady did was really too much!

He even dared to bribe the jailer and let someone transfer the third son, and now the Dongchuang incident has been taken seriously.

Originally, there were only seven felonies, but now they have to become ten felonies.

It is also because the emperor is not in Shengjing City now, and this news may not have been sent to the imperial court.

If it is delivered, it is estimated that the imperial edict of death will be sent to the prison of the Ministry of punishment.

"How about the news from grandfather? Haven't sent it back yet? How long has it been, why is it so slow?"

"Ms. Hui, logically speaking, there should be a reply in about one month, but let alone replying to the letter now, the slave is a little worried whether Master Hou has received the letter or not."

Otherwise, with their Liu family's private line, it is impossible to be so slow.

There can only be two results. Either someone intercepted the information and never sent it out, or there was trouble in the northwest, and the Liu family army was unable to take care of it.

No matter which one it is, it is not what they are willing to see.

Concubine Yi had no choice but to suppress her anger, it's better to smooth this matter out now.

Otherwise, if you really make a fuss in front of the emperor, even if you move out of the entire Liu family, it may not help.

It may also involve the grandmother who "dispatches troops" behind her back.

If she was really involved, then the Liu family's prestige in Shengjing City might really be shaken.

"Who discovered this?"

"It's the grandson of the Ling family, Ling Yan, who just entered the official position not long ago. He is now working in the Criminal Ministry. It is said that he discovered it when he was inspecting the prison, but when he reported it, our people stopped him."

The Ling family?

Concubine Yi thought about it.

The Ling family is not a great family in the court, but it's nothing more than mediocrity.

Unexpectedly, now there is a grandson who is selfless and upright.

It's his aunt, isn't the girl from the Ling family the one who married into the Pei family?

Now, she is Concubine Yinggui's mother.

She is taking care of her daughter who is about to give birth in the palace.

So a series of thoughts ran quickly in Yi Fei's mind.

If they do something about this matter, it will definitely be fine to hold down the Ling family.

But if the Pei family is alarmed, I'm afraid it will be very troublesome.

The current backbone of the Pei family is the Minister of Rites.

This official position is not big or small, but it is admired by literati and inkmen.

If the whole body is dragged to the speaker, these people who are not afraid of death will really make things worse!

Therefore, we can only start with appeasement.

She kept thinking here, but Ruyi from outside quietly entered the door.

"Your Majesty, there is news from Yaoyue Palace that Concubine Yinggui is giving birth."

"Birth? So soon?"

"Ah."

"A prince?"

Seeing Ruyi's hesitation to speak, Concubine Yi already guessed pretty well.

If it was a princess, she would have already announced the good news when she first entered the door, so why wait until now.

"Yes, it's the fourth prince. I heard that the Inner Court Department has sent someone to send a message to the emperor."

"Okay, it's good to be the prince, our Great Wei has another legitimate heir."

Ruan Ming and Ruyi were a little surprised when the word "heir" came out of Concubine Yi's mouth.

Although it is in his own palace, but these words are a bit disrespectful.

After all, the emperor was still in his prime, so it was much too early to talk about the aftermath.

Everyone thought that Concubine Yi must be very upset when she heard the news.

Unexpectedly, she was very happy.

Turning to Ruan Ming, he ordered.

"Concubine Yinggui gave birth to the fourth prince. This is a hero of our Great Wei. You send someone to prepare two generous gifts, one to the Pei family and one to the Ling family. Tell them that the emperor is not in the palace now. Everything is up to the palace, if Mrs. Shi Lang is willing to stay in the palace to serve for a few more days, it is not impossible."

This is ambiguous.

What if outsiders thought it was some great glory?

But only the Pei family and the Ling family would understand that this was a dead end for them.

If it's just a princess, I'm afraid they will be willing to let it go.

But now he is the prince full of hope.

Even a fool can know how to choose.

Thinking that the troubles that caused her headaches would be solved easily, Concubine Yi felt that the newborn fourth prince felt that he came at the right time.

So before the Ling family stopped thinking about reporting this matter, she would definitely protect the safety of the Fourth Prince and Concubine Yinggui.

Otherwise, how could she take them as hostages, threaten the Pei family, and threaten the Ling family?
The fourth prince, who was sleeping soundly after eating and drinking as a baby, had no idea how many people's fates had been changed by his arrival.

The Ling family outside the palace is in a turmoil right now.

Ling Yan has an upright personality, and the reason why he was arranged to be the head of the Ministry of Criminal Justice is because he is easy to offend people because of his temperament.

Thinking that there are only criminals in the prison anyway, so if you offend him, you can offend him, and it doesn't hurt.

Who would have thought that he would be allowed to break through such a scandal of the Liu family, that would be fine.

Originally they were thinking whether to make a big fuss about this matter, but after Yifei's generous gift was delivered, even the Minister of Rites came to the door in person.

"Yan'er, this matter must never be exposed. Your aunt, your cousin, and the newborn fourth prince are all still in the palace. If they offend the Liu family, they will have no way out!"
