Being a cannon fodder female supporting role is not as good as marrying a lucky villain

Chu Yunyi was only worried for a while, then smiled and waved his hands: "Xiao Wu is still young, father will never put the burden on him, and now everyone in the court, who doesn't know that I am father's last The prince you value?"

The eldest prince and the second prince died, and even the only fourth prince who was close to his age also died. Among these princes, he was the only heir to the throne.

Seeing his swearing appearance, Gu Qingqiu felt anxious but didn't know where to start.

The emperor seemed to attach great importance to Chu Yunyi, but she always felt that something was wrong. If she really valued someone, how could she only let Chu Yunyi do those trivial things?Almost all other important matters in the court were in the hands of the emperor alone.

That's all right, the emperor is Chu Yunyi's biological father after all, and after a hundred years, the throne will definitely be handed over to his son, but ever since she learned from Yuntian that there was something strange about the emperor's pill, she has suspected Another thing, that is - someone wants to rebel!

She once made side attacks on Mr. Zhuang. Mr. Zhuang obviously didn't know about it. He was afraid that he had hidden the emperor's attackers very deeply. Even Daoist Chen, the emperor's most trusted person, was one of his people!

"Qingqiu, what are you thinking? Why is your face so ugly?" Chu Yunyi stretched out his hand involuntarily, and gently stretched out his hand, trying to smooth the wrinkles on Gu Qingqiu's forehead.

The moment he stretched out his hand, Gu Qingqiu subconsciously raised his eyes and looked at him.

That Yingxiang's words echoed in her ears again, she tried to see the affection for herself through Chu Yunyi's eyes, but from Chu Yunyi's swollen eyes, she couldn't see any emotion.

Chu Yunyi's eyes were extremely soft, but under this soft surface, he seemed to be a wooden man with no other emotions.

Gu Qingqiu's heart was half cold, but against Chu Yunyi's gaze, she even raised a gentle smile: "I was just thinking, when will His Highness be able to sit in that position."

"Father is old." Chu Yunyi smiled meaningfully.

Only when this matter was mentioned, did Chu Yunyi's eyes show some real emotion.

Gu Qingqiu sneered in his heart. Sure enough, in Chu Yunyi's heart, power was the most important thing. As for himself, he didn't take it seriously at all!Even for that Yingxiang, after her death, Chu Yunyi never showed much sadness.

Thinking of this, Gu Qingqiu felt quite satisfied. She raised her eyes, looked at Chu Yunyi, and said softly, "Your Highness, I will always be by your side."

Seeing the deep affection between the two, Ban Xia not only didn't feel warm, but a chill rose behind her back.

Such a situation is indeed a bit scary.

However, at this moment, a person walked in quickly, it was Eunuch Sun, the chief eunuch of the East Palace.

His face was quite flustered, he even forgot to shout, and ran straight in, until he faced Gu Qingqiu's cold and stern eyes, he just woke up like a dream, and knelt down on the ground with a "plop".

But even so, he stared at Gu Qingqiu's cold eyes and said loudly: "Chu Zhaoyi is pregnant! The emperor is overjoyed and rewarded the sixth palace! He also made Chu Zhaoyi a concubine!"

Hearing this, Gu Qingqiu immediately stood up: "What did you say?"

"Concubine Chen is pregnant!" Eunuch Sun squeezed out an ugly smile, "This is a happy event!"

Whether it is a happy event or not, only they know what they think in their hearts.

For Donggong, this is definitely not a happy event.

The emperor was old, and he should have been powerless in sexual matters, but suddenly Chu Zhaoyi became pregnant. As a result, some courtiers might have to change their minds again. Supporting a prince is not as good as supporting yourself. How about a grandson and nephew?

Although on the surface, the Eastern Palace is still the safest and the most sacred, but the emperor's mind has always been unpredictable to everyone, and the emperor can make people pregnant. Doesn't it just prove that the elixir refined by Chen Daochang Does it work wonders?If he can really prolong the life of the emperor, maybe when the emperor dies, their grandsons and nephews will have grown up!

After the news of Chu Zhaoyi's pregnancy came out, the entire court was shaken. Eunuch Sun hurried over because he noticed some unusual movements.

Seeing that Chu Yunyi and Gu Qingqiu both looked solemn, Eunuch Sun knew that he had guessed the two masters' thoughts correctly, so he hurriedly said: "What should I do? I was conferred the concubine just because I was pregnant. ...It's still Concubine Chen... This has never happened before!"

"The adults from the Ministry of Rites wrote a letter saying that this matter is not in accordance with the rules of etiquette, but the emperor insisted on it all the time. He scolded several adults who wrote the letter, and his attitude was very firm. Now the imperial edict of concubine concubine has been issued."

Chu Yunyi gritted his teeth tightly, his eyes were as dark as the deepest ink, "The elixir refined by Daoist Chen...does it really have such a miraculous effect?"

Eunuch Sun shook his head with a wry smile: "I don't know the specific situation. The Zhaixing Pavilion where Daoist Chen is located is guarded by the imperial guards. Even the eunuchs and maids who go in to sweep the floor will be screened several times. Not even a mosquito can fly." Going in, the servant only knows...the emperor is very concerned about Chen Daochang."

Although the emperor is stupid, he is not an idiot. If Chen Daochang was really a fraud, he would have died countless times. Eunuch Sun's words are enough to prove that he is useful to the emperor, and he is not young!

Chu Yunyi took a deep breath, but felt extremely dizzy.

"Think of a way to let me and Daoist Chen meet."

As soon as Chu Yunyi opened his mouth, Eunuch Sun's face suddenly became embarrassed.

But before he could speak, Chu Yunyi said again: "No matter what method you use, you must let me meet Daoist Chen! I want to see what kind of abilities he has!"

Eunuch Sun didn't dare to refute any more, so he could only nod his head: "This slave has written it all down."

Only now did he notice Yingxiang's body: "This is..."

"Yingxiang tried to misbehave with His Highness, and after I found out, she committed suicide in fear of crime."

When Gu Qingqiu's cold voice sounded, Eunuch Sun immediately lowered his head. He was far more afraid of Gu Qingqiu than Chu Yunyi.

Chu Yunyi was immersed in his own thoughts, and he didn't have time to notice this strangeness at all. He frowned, his eyes were full of uneasiness, and the powerlessness of things beyond his control was spreading in his heart.

And Gu Qingqiu's mood at the moment was not much better, she clenched her hands tightly, trying to say something, but finally returned to calm.

No one knows better than her how tricky Concubine Chen's pregnancy is this time!She believed in Yuntian's ability, so she believed in what Yuntian said.

Since the emperor can no longer make people pregnant, how did the concubine Chen get pregnant?Unless it's... she's having an affair with someone else!

Whenever Gu Qingqiu thought of this, his body trembled unconsciously.

"Qingqiu, what's the matter with you?" Chu Yunyi immediately stepped forward and gently embraced her in his arms.

There is concern in his eyes. From outsiders' point of view, he really dotes on Gu Qingqiu very much, but Gu Qingqiu does not want to look at him again. Every time he looks into his eyes, in Gu Qingqiu's mind, there will be a fragrance Those words before dying.

She didn't want to remember these words again, so she simply lowered her head and said in a muffled voice: "I'm fine, but I'm a little worried about your current situation, Your Highness. The title of Concubine Chen...is not a good omen."

Hearing this, Chu Yunyi's eyes darkened, and soon he patted Gu Qingqiu's hand again: "Don't worry, it's just an unformed fetus. In this world, you can't give birth without being pregnant. of."

Gu Qingqiu pretended to be scared and shrank into Chu Yunyi's arms. At this moment, she was thinking in her heart, what method should she find to expose the matter of Concubine Chen?

She closed her eyes, the thoughts in her mind were spinning quickly, but she never showed a single point on her face.

Seeing that Gu Qingqiu was silent, Chu Yunyi patted her on the shoulder lovingly: "Don't worry, with me here, I will definitely make you the most honorable woman in the world."

Gu Qingqiu smiled, leaning on Chu Yunyi's arms reliantly.

But Ban Xia could see very clearly, there was only indifference in her eyes.

She has heard these words a lot.

……

Carrier pigeons flew from various Zhuangzi in the suburbs of Beijing and flew to various places.

"County Lord, there is a letter from Beijing."

Chunyu took off the anklet on the carrier pigeon's leg, and the ciphertext on the letter was quickly deciphered by her, and she immediately handed the letter she had written to Gu Ning to read.

Every time Gu Ning looked at a sentence, his eyes became more dignified.

"Chu Zhaoyi is pregnant?" Gu Ning couldn't believe it, "She was even made a concubine? The emperor really dotes on her."

It's just that the matter of being pregnant is so strange no matter how you look at it!

Thinking of this, Gu Ning turned his attention to Yue Rong: "What is in the Longevity Pill that Daoist Chen gave the emperor? Can people really get pregnant after eating this Longevity Pill?"

Her intuition was very keen, and after hearing this, Yue Rong had no time to prepare, and Gu Ning caught the trace of astonishment on his face very quickly.

Without waiting for Yue Rong to answer, Gu Ning nodded: "I see, it seems that people are not allowed to conceive, because there are people outside the concubine Chen."

Yue Rong opened his mouth wide, and even wondered if he had just said something.

Chunyu sneered at the side: "The county lord is always smart, you didn't say anything before, but the county lord still caught you in contact with General Lu's people."

When the old matter was brought up, an unnatural line crossed Yue Rong's face. He looked away and said in a muffled voice, "I just didn't expect the county lord to react so quickly."

"There are still many things you don't know!" Chunyu's eyes were full of complacency, "The county lord is very good at seeing the road. I didn't find your trace at the beginning, but the county lord found the road you walked at a glance. !"

Hearing that, what Yue Rong thought of was Gu Ning's various behaviors when he was in Yunshan, and he couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "Yes, it was thanks to the county lord that I found the private treasury of the first emperor."

Hearing the topic of the two getting further and further away, Gu Ning coughed lightly: "Okay, now is not the time to talk about this."

"The imperial city is heavily guarded, and there are guards patrolling everywhere. Concubine Chen is just the daughter of a seventh-rank official. How can she have such a great ability to have an affair with someone?" Gu Ning raised his eyebrows, "It won't be Is it also part of the thank you banquet plan?"

"This is definitely not what adults did!" Yue Rong shook his head quickly, "Perhaps Chu Zhaoyi had an affair with the Imperial Army."

Gu Ning squinted his eyes, and took a careful look at Yue Rong. Seeing that he was flustered, he just didn't want to let himself misunderstand that Xie Yan was unscrupulous, not guilty, so he looked away.

"No, no, what are you so excited about?" Gu Ning said softly, "I was wondering, do you want to use this to do something?"

Yue Rong thought of something and suddenly slapped his head.

Facing Gu Ning's puzzled gaze, he said softly: "This subordinate just thought of it suddenly, almost all of the Forbidden Army are old acquaintances of General Pei, could it be...they discovered what happened to Chu Zhaoyi? The reason why they spread the news is that they want to use Chu Zhaoyi's pregnancy to divert the emperor's attention?"

Hearing this, Gu Ning narrowed his beautiful eyes lightly, and said quietly: "There is some truth to it."

This was indeed something that the Eldest Princess would do—the emperor sent someone to assassinate Pei Anlin, and she retaliated back and made the emperor put a green hat on his head.
