Chapter 148 Adopted Son
In the early morning light, all the concubines came to Changchun Palace to pay their respects to the queen. The queen had been ill for a long time, and finally got better. As for the reason, everyone knew the reason, and the way she looked at Su Yuning was also meaningful.

What is even more shocking is that Concubine Chen, who has always been domineering, actually got close to her, uncharacteristically, and even more puzzling.

Ignoring everyone's eyes, the two sat down, they didn't know what they were talking about, until the queen walked out, everyone stood up and saluted: "The concubine has seen the queen."

"Get up."

The queen's complexion was a bit haggard, but her gaze was fixed on Su Yuning. She felt that this woman was a little abnormal. Although she looked very similar to the former queen, the tenderness was so awkward no matter how she looked, it was more like pretending. from……

"Empress Empress, Your Majesty will come to see you later." Concubine Chen smiled with anticipation: "Our sisters can also enjoy the glory and see Your Majesty."

Xu Guiren on the side glanced sourly: "If you want to see His Majesty, you should go to Rongyue Palace. I heard that Your Majesty lives there even for a month. Who can compare to this honor..."

Before Su Yuning could react, Concubine Chen frowned, and spat at her fiercely: "Bah! You are so soft-spoken, how dare you gossip in front of the empress! Look at the palace today! you!"

The scene was chaotic, Concubine Chen bared her teeth and claws, Xu Guiren cried out, and Su Yuning pretended to stop her. The more the queen watched, the more bored she became, and finally couldn't help but say, "Enough!"

"Concubine Chen, this is the Changchun Palace, and the palace is still here! Even if Xu Guiren made mistakes, it's not your turn to teach me a lesson!"

"Xu Guiren, we are sisters in the harem, how can you deliberately exclude her like this? Also, you want to take care of His Majesty's affairs? It's against the sky? Go back and copy two menstrual books, and calm down."

With a turn of her phoenix eyes, she looked at the person behind Concubine Chen, feeling an inexplicable anger, perhaps because she had insulted the former empress: "Concubine Ning, although Xu Guiren's move is inappropriate, but it's because of you anyway." , the harem is never allowed to favor you, since you are a concubine, why did you deceive His Majesty to favor you?"

Su Yuning knelt down unhurriedly, with a mournful expression on her face: "Empress empress knows, this concubine really does not dare to be favored by His Majesty, and has been consoling her, but His Majesty refuses, and this concubine is really helpless..."

Those words made all the concubines glaring at her, except for her, everyone else is stupid, the emperor can't look down on any of them?
But no matter how everyone looked at her, Su Yuning remained calm. Yun Shen said that the more others hated her and insulted her, the more the emperor cherished her, so she said with reddened eyes: "Sisters, please don't give up. Angry, my sister just told the truth..."

In the eyes of the empress, this pretentiousness made her even more irritable: "Concubine Ning, why are you crying? Could it be that this palace bullied you?"

"No..." Su Yuning quickly wiped away her tears: "No, the concubine is just..."

Just at this time, the emperor strode in without even a biography. He pulled up Su Yuning, who was miserable on the ground, and said coldly: "When I'm not around, you bully Concubine Ning like this? You pretend to be kind on the outside, but you are so vicious behind your back!"

All the concubines who were watching the show were silent and said nothing, the queen naturally heard that it was the emperor beating her, so she got up and saluted: "Your Majesty, the concubine just asked how long the concubine was in accordance with the palace rules. I didn't expect her to cry, this matter has nothing to do with others, if His Majesty thinks it's inappropriate, punish the concubine."

"Your Majesty, the courtiers and concubines are fine, the empress is in better health, don't blame her..."

Su Yuning tirelessly pretended to be virtuous, but the emperor believed her, stroked her hand and said, "Forget it, today I came to see the queen's body, let's put this matter aside for now, if someone dares to bully my concubine in the future , I will not forgive you lightly!"

"Yes, Your Majesty..."

Amidst all the echoes, the empress only felt that her heart was extremely cold. The emperor sat beside her, and then she remembered to ask her a few words: "Is your body feeling better?"

The queen said dumbly: "Your Majesty, don't worry, the concubine is already much better..."

"Your Majesty." Concubine Chen suddenly stepped forward and said, "I have something to ask Your Majesty for permission."

The emperor turned his gaze to her, and said, "What's the matter?"

After a deliberate pause, Concubine Chen glanced at the queen, lowered her head and said, "This concubine is not in good health, and since the last miscarriage, it has been getting worse and worse. Therefore, this concubine wants to take His Royal Highness Yun Shen as an adopted son. Please Your Majesty agree."

A stone stirred up a thousand waves, everyone was naturally astonished, the queen glared at her even more, no wonder Concubine Chen was so excited today, it turned out that she had such an idea: "Absurd! Concubine Chen, how old is the difference between you and Yun Shen? How can you be his mother?"

Concubine Chen seemed to have come prepared: "Your Majesty, empress, although the concubine is young, she also wants to share the worries of His Majesty. Wouldn't it be a great thing if the estrangement could be resolved? Your Majesty, what do you think?"

"This matter..." The emperor frowned, and said in a deep voice: "We will discuss it later, after all, it is a very important matter, and I will have to think about it for a while."

Obviously unwilling to agree, Concubine Chen was not discouraged. She turned her head and glanced at Su Yuning. She understood, and slowly walked forward and said, "Your Majesty, I have something to say."

The empress was startled, the emperor was a little hesitant at first, if she was asked to say it, he would respond if he was not sure: "Concubine Ning, Your Majesty has already said..."

"I want to hear what Concubine Ning has to say."

Once the hammer was finalized, the queen was dumbfounded, and only listened to Su Yuning softly said: "Your Majesty, this concubine lost her parents since she was a child, and has no relatives. It was His Highness who rescued this concubine and brought her back to you. Now he is walking on thin ice in the royal city. Others can only call him His Highness Yunshen, others don't even know his ranking, the concubine is really heartbroken..."

She wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, "You know, he has been away from the royal city for many years and has suffered so much, but now he is back here, just asking for safety, His Majesty's mercy..."

Su Yuning sadly pleaded for Yun Shen. This scene was somewhat familiar to the emperor, and he was in a trance for a moment. Seeing this, the empress was palpitated: "Your Majesty! You can't be swayed by concubine Ning's few words, this is not a trivial matter!"

"Empress Empress, Sister Concubine Ning only said a few words, but how could she sway His Majesty? Is His Majesty the kind of person who is easily swayed?"

Concubine Chen's yin and yang were strange, and the queen was even more annoyed: "You!"

The emperor stood up suddenly, and said in a deep voice: "That's all! I have made my own decision on this matter, let's leave today, concubine Ning, you follow me to the Hall of Mental Cultivation."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Seeing the crowd disperse in twos and threes, the queen couldn't bear it anymore, she slumped on the chair and murmured: "Your Majesty...does he not believe in me anymore..."
