Chapter 57: Accidentally Provoking the Dark Guard, Begging for Mercy Every Night (7)

"Your Majesty is questioning the authenticity of my pregnancy with the heir, and I have no way to defend myself.

Why not wait and see if my belly will show signs of pregnancy in three months? "

The beauty, who was more than ten years younger than him, pouted her rosy lips, looked coquettish and had a bad temper, and was suspected of being pregnant with his dragon seed. Si Zhan did not feel angry at all, and only felt that Concubine Xiang looked really cute and adorable.

"In that case, then I will listen to Lady Xiang.

After three months, if it is confirmed that the pregnancy is real, I will announce it to the world."

This means that the news of Concubine Xiang’s pregnancy will be suppressed for the time being.

In order to avoid a misunderstanding that would cause him, the emperor, to be ridiculed by the world.

Si Zhan was calm and cautious. He gave some rewards to Concubine Xiang and also arranged for palace maids and imperial doctors to take good care of her.

But for the time being, there will be no treatment like the one that Lan Da Ying was given in the past, in terms of promotion in rank and granting her a palace.

Lin Shu was so angry that she cried secretly behind his back.

If she didn't feel bad about the points she invested, she would have wanted to abort the child immediately, give up her mission of having children in this world, and let Si Zhan be childless for the rest of his life!

the other side.

Si Zhan talked to the Queen Mother about Concubine Xiang being diagnosed with possible pregnancy.

The mother and son became more and more delighted as they talked.

However, the empress dowager did not favor her own niece, and always advised the emperor to take the opportunity to favor other concubines more.

What if it was because she had been a vegetarian and chanting Buddhist scriptures during this period that she was forgiven by the Buddha and his fertility was returned to her son?

The mother and son were united. After listening to the Queen Mother's words, Si Zhan nodded repeatedly and quickly put it into action.

*
A month later.

The news of more than a dozen concubines dying suddenly in succession could not be hidden in the palace at all and soon reached the ears of the ladies in various palaces.

Many people have discovered that before the dozen concubines died suddenly, they had all been called by the emperor!
For a moment, the timid ones were frightened to the point of falling ill and dared not even step out of the palace.

Lin Shu, whose belly was starting to show a little, was the calmest.

Several palace maids were serving her. On her left hand was sour fruit, and on her right hand was spicy food. She had almost everything she wanted, and she felt very comfortable.

The torture she suffered during her pregnancy was probably that she wanted to eat sour food at one moment and spicy food at another.

Seeing Lin Ran coming towards her, Lin Shu asked the palace servants to dismiss and the two sisters talked alone.

"I am flattered that my sister can come to see me every day.

I have some sour apricots and sour plums here, would you like to try some, sister?"

Lin Shu did not hide her pregnancy from Lin Ran. In this deep palace, she always had to have someone she could talk to.

Sisters are our own family, sharing honor and disgrace, which is better than that of others.

Lin Ran didn't like sour food, she didn't even look at the two plates of sour food, she sat down and said:
"I'm interested in eating some of your spicy food, but not the sour ones."

After listening to this, Lin Shu spoke subconsciously:
"Sis, since you like spicy food, maybe you will give birth to a daughter in the future?"

After saying this, Lin Shu realized that except for herself, it was impossible for other women in the harem to have children with the emperor.

Suddenly I felt a little regretful.

There's nothing I can do about it. After all, she traveled through time and space and has a system. She's definitely a favored daughter of heaven, and she's different from them all~

"Let's not talk about whether it's a boy or a girl," Lin Ran lowered her voice, "Sister, didn't you hear the rumors in the womb a while ago?"

"Of course I've heard of it..."

Speaking of this, Lin Shu felt a little angry.

It was her first time to come to the ancient dimension to give birth to a child for the emperor. She didn't expect that the emperor cared so much about his face.

Just because those women knew that he didn't respond to that matter, he wanted to kill those women who slept with him to silence them!

As a superior ruler, Si Zhan simply didn't bother to explain further to his subordinates. He just comforted their families and acted as if nothing had happened.

Observing the changes in Lin Shu's expression, Lin Ran lowered her eyes slightly and sighed: "I'm afraid that if I am also chosen to sleep with her, maybe the same fate will happen to me." "..."

Lin Shu was silent.

A slight sense of guilt welled up in her heart.

It was as if she had indirectly killed many people.

"So, sister, if the emperor wants to turn over my card to sleep with him, can you help me stop him?"

If even the heroine can't stop the hero, then Lin Ran seems to have no other options. She can't keep pretending to be sick, right?

Lin Shu thought for a long time and nodded: "I'll try my best, sister. I can't guarantee that the emperor will listen to me."

Lin Shu is bound to the childbearing system, which requires her to travel to various worlds to give birth to children for the male protagonist who has no descendants. But even if it is a mission, which woman is willing to share her man with others?

Lin Shu was actually very happy to help Lin Ran.

In order to save more women, Lin Shu began to plan in her heart that when the emperor's love for her reached its peak, she would persuade him to disband the harem and leave only her to bear children for him.

If the emperor could still treat everyone equally, Lin Shu was not sure she could get his agreement.

But now that the emperor can only support her, Lin Shu can be very confident.

After all, having so many beautiful women in the harem, whom the emperor can only look at but not eat, must be a torture for the emperor himself!

……

Now that the heroine agreed to help, Lin Ran felt that she could survive for a while longer.

Early summer has arrived and the temperature is pleasant. Lin Ran looks much better. Except when she has her period, it is not easy for her to pretend to be sick.

She appeared in more occasions, and even the Queen Mother knew that she had finally recovered from her illness.

This night.

The palace maid who served him personally had just left.

Lin Ran found that a black figure suddenly fell into her bedroom.

"who is it?"

Lin Ran lowered her voice, and a face she hadn't seen for a long time flashed through her mind.

"Replying to Lady Lin, it is me, a secret guard of the Dragon Guard Squad."

Through the soft and thin bed curtain, the other person came to her bed, leaned over and bowed respectfully.

The tall, dark figure seemed to blend into the night, simply because his voice sounded righteous and gave people a sense of security and reliability for no reason.

"Does Lady Lin still remember me?"

Lin Ran did not answer this question. She sat up, hugged the quilt, and said calmly: "What's the matter? Tell me."

This is not the place to ask about one's well-being.

If you have anything to say, just say it and leave!
Xie Fengye didn't mind her indifference, and said without changing his expression:
"Does Lady Lin know the reason why the imperial concubine suddenly died some time ago?"

Lin Ran was silent for a moment, and her bright eyes stared at him through the bed curtains:
"Are you going to tell me why?"

Her voice was tentative.

The other party should be calm:

"Well, the emperor couldn't perform the Zhougong ritual for some reason, and he killed those concubines to silence them."

"You told me this kind of thing... Is it okay? Aren't you afraid that I will report you to the emperor?
As soon as Lin Ran finished speaking, the other party suddenly laughed.

In this quiet environment, the low laughter from his throat seemed to be right next to my ears.

"I dare to say this in front of you, but I believe you will not tell the emperor.

This time, I am here mainly to tell you that the Fengluan Spring Grace Car is coming your way."

Remember the male (driver) host (machine) name: Xie Fengye
