Get pregnant quickly: Jiaojiao relies on giving birth and is favored by the boss

Chapter 365: Meeting the Ninth Thousand Year Old (10)
Pink and her sisters came back talking in a whisper. As soon as they saw Lin Yan, their voices disappeared. The three of them quietly moved to the side of a bed and sat together to continue their discussion.

"It seems like something happened in Changxin Palace? Lord Ling brought so many eunuchs there to investigate this matter, right?"

"I heard from my little sister that there was a palace maid who was favored once and was given the title of a talented person and lived in Changxin Palace. The main hall seemed to be Concubine Luo, I can't remember clearly. But the point is that this talented person fell into a well in the middle of the night."

"Ah? How could a living person fall into a well for no reason? And she is a talented person, why would she need to fetch water herself?"

The wells in the palace were usually used by palace servants. As the master, all you had to do was wait patiently at your position, and someone would naturally fetch water for you.

There is a well near Changxin Palace, because the area is relatively remote and close to the servants' quarters. The well is also used by the palace servants for drinking and washing. Water resources are precious, and every well has its own value.

But now, someone fell into the well, and it was the emperor's woman. No wonder the matter needed to be handled by Jiu Qiansui, because it did not seem to be an ordinary fall into the water.

Considering those palace fighting dramas and the jealousy of the women in the palace, how could one not suspect that this was man-made?
While Lin Yan was mending her clothes with needle and thread, she pricked up her ears to listen to the movements on the other side, trying to get some useful information.

Pink clicked her tongue twice. She looked at the two little sisters and said mysteriously, "I guess there must be someone behind this. Otherwise, how could someone fall in? And it's the middle of the night. Who would go to the well in the middle of the night?"

"Sister Pink, if that's the case, then doesn't that mean the master of Changxin Palace is the most suspicious?"

As soon as these words came out, several people covered their mouths and looked at each other in shock with wide eyes.

There were many conspiracies and intrigues in the deep palace, and many people lost their lives because of them. But for the little palace maids, these were too far away for them.

The bad things they had done were just suppressing their companions, and they had not yet hated them to the point of wanting to lose their lives. That was why they were so surprised when they heard these rumors.

Lin Yan didn't hear much useful information, but she could see that these people were bullies. She was obviously a bad person, but she met a worse person, so they seemed a little... obedient?
She sneered and warned, "It's best to keep your mouth shut in front of others. Keep your mouth shut and don't implicate me."

Talking about the emperor's woman behind his back, how can this sound outrageous? What's more, she is no longer a palace maid, but the master.

Servant talking about the master? This crime is enough to make them drink several pots of wine.

Pink wanted to say something to stab him, but seeing the half-smile on his face and the broken corner of the table that day, she finally just stammered a few times and closed her mouth obediently.

But there was nothing fun to do in the dormitory, so they could only talk about other gossips. They couldn't discuss their master's affairs, but it should be okay to say bad things about their colleagues behind their backs, right?
A master died in the palace. This matter could be a big deal or a small one, depending on what the superiors think.

How this person died is not the key point; the key point is that he died!

The queen was the head of the six palaces in charge of the harem, and under her care, someone died right under her nose. This was her dereliction of duty. The concubine had the job of assisting in the management of the six palaces, so she was also responsible for this matter.

The emperor first went to the queen's palace to complain, then came to Concubine Shu, said a few meaningless words, and left.

It would have been fine if he had just left, but he went to Concubine Li's place. Concubine Shu was so angry that she broke several vases. Although the floor was covered with carpet, the broken pieces of porcelain on it were unpleasant to look at and dangerous.

The palace maids in the inner hall knelt on the ground, and even the maids beside the Concubine Shu knelt on the ground, not daring to breathe. They could only shout over and over again, "Your Majesty, calm down! Your Majesty, calm down!"

"Your Majesty, the dragon baby in your belly is the most important. The imperial physician also said that you need to rest for the first three months. If for nothing else, for the sake of the little prince, I beg Your Majesty to calm down." The personal maid Luo Mei spoke cautiously.

She was brought out from the boudoir by the Empress, and was a maidservant in the dowry. But after entering the palace, she could no longer be called that, but a confidant.

She was the only one present who could speak at this critical moment. The friendship between them was incomparable to that of other palace maids.

Whenever she opened her mouth, Concubine Shu would listen a word or two.

Sure enough, after hearing the words "dragon son" and "little prince", Concubine Shu finally calmed down. She slumped down on the chaise longue, clutching the blanket tightly with both hands.

It seemed that only in this way could she regain her sanity.

She had no problem with the emperor scolding her. But she couldn't just turn around and go to her mortal enemy after scolding him! Wouldn't that be like trampling on her face?

Thinking of this, she couldn't help crying in grievance, "Luomei, will I be suppressed by that little bitch for the rest of my life? In the past, there was the Empress, and now there's this little bitch. Why is my life so miserable!"

Luo Mei crawled forward on her knees, stretched out her hands and rubbed her master's knees. She was extremely humble, as if she had no dignity at all.

"Your Majesty, that Lipin is just from a small place, why does your Majesty miss her so much? The emperor favors her only for the sake of temporary novelty. When the novelty wears off, how can the emperor still think of this person? Our majesty is a famous talented woman in the capital, how can she compare to her?"

The reason why she could enter the palace with others was not only because of the friendship in the boudoir, but also because she understood her master, knew what to say and when, and was a caring little maid.

"Your Majesty's main task now is to give birth to a little prince smoothly. With a little prince by your side, how can you not win the emperor's heart?"

After listening to her analysis, Concubine Shu couldn't help but nod her head in agreement. "You are right. I must take good care of my pregnancy and give birth to my son smoothly. This is the most important thing for me."

Looking up, he saw the group of palace maids kneeling on the ground and shivering, and he couldn't help feeling annoyed.

"Get them out of here, you idiots! I don't want to see them!"

Several palace maids hurriedly rolled out, not daring to stay for a moment, for fear that their master would attack them in the next second.

But those broken porcelain pieces on the ground have to be dealt with, so I'll just ask some unlucky guy to come in and deal with them later.
