Yancao looked dignified, and had already thought carefully in her heart.

"Niang Niang, do you think that given how much the emperor attaches importance to the prince in your womb, you can easily...get rid of him?"

The emperor attached great importance to the prince in the womb of the concubine Chen. Even if the queen gave birth to a prince, he never cared about it. As soon as the concubine Chen became pregnant, she was carried from Zhaoyi to one of the four concubines. The Zhaoyang Palace rewarded her to live there.

And the servants in Zhaoyang Palace were also selected by the emperor's most trusted Li Dehai, and they were all loyal, even if the concubines in the harem wanted to do something, they couldn't do it.

Under such circumstances, if Concubine Chen could still have a miscarriage, she would really be pushing herself into the pit of fire—all the dangers had been sorted out by the emperor, and it was the mother's responsibility if she couldn't keep the child.

Hearing this, Concubine Chen's rosy face turned pale again.

"Is it the only way to give birth to him?" Concubine Chen murmured, "But I'm afraid!"

Yancao was also afraid, but seeing Concubine Chen's distraught appearance, she had no choice but to grit her teeth and act as the backbone of Concubine Chen, she said softly: "Mother, even Chen Daochang doesn't know who the child in your belly is. Yes, the other imperial physicians won’t even know about it, you might as well use your tricks and treat this child as yours and the emperor’s!”

Concubine Chen took a deep breath, she had also thought about the method Yancao said, but...but as long as she thought of her and that man's child calling someone else a father, she felt uncomfortable.

Seeing Concubine Chen's appearance, Yancao was so anxious that she wanted to put on Concubine Chen's body and make decisions for her.

"Your Majesty! What are you still hesitating about? If you don't make a decision at this time, you will never be killed alone in the future! The servants and other palace people in Zhaoyang Palace will be buried with you! Even Mr. Zheng! And Madam You have to be implicated!"

"Did you forget the promise you made in front of Madam before entering the palace?" Yancao said excitedly, "You said that you will definitely make Madam proud! Let Madam live a good life!"

Concubine Chen's confused eyes gradually became firm because of Yancao's words. She blinked, and her eyes gradually recovered: "Yes... I promised my mother."

She is just the daughter of a seventh-rank magistrate, but since she is the daughter of a magistrate, she can live comfortably in a small county. It was indeed like this at first, and she also has a childhood sweetheart fiancé, The two grew up together, and they were already discussing marriage.

But her father brought that vixen back to the mansion. Since then, her life has plummeted, and she has to use all good things first, and even her fiancé must be given to that vixen. In order to silence her, he even sent her to the capital and became one of the selected girls.

In the beginning, she was very favored by the emperor because of her beauty. The news reached her father, and even her mother's treatment improved a lot. She tasted the taste of power for the first time, so she began to be proud of her favor, but The emperor's love for her was limited, and she hated this disgusting old man very much.

Until that day, she met her longing fiancé in the royal garden.

It turned out that he didn't marry his concubine sister, he secretly signed up and became a forbidden soldier, he just wanted to be by his side!

She and her fiancé already had feelings for each other, they came and went, in the lonely deep palace, they actually became husband and wife, that's all, she was pregnant!

When Concubine Chen thought of those things, the emotions in her eyes were extremely complicated, both joyful and uneasy.

Seeing her like this, Yancao simply stepped forward and became the villain: "Your Majesty! You have to think clearly! The lives of all of us depend on you alone! Even if you don't think about yourself, you should think about us yes!"

"For today's plan, the only way to hide the secret is to make the wrong mistake! And...and General Zheng! You must not show mercy either!"

Yan Cao's words made Concubine Chen's eyes completely fragile.

"Yancao, do you really want to do this?"

"Your Majesty, there is no impenetrable wall in this world! In order to ensure that the secret is buried here, you must do this!" Yancao said seriously, "This servant is yours, and this servant will never betray you, but General Zheng is different, men I have always been ruthless, what if he uses this matter to threaten you in the future?"

Every word Yancao said was like a heavy boulder hitting Concubine Chen's heart hard.

Her eyes were full of confusion, and she didn't know what to do.

Seeing this, Yancao became cruel, and added another sentence: "General Zheng is young and promising, and I don't know how many women want to marry him! He will never guard you alone!"

The mist in Concubine Chen's eyes completely dissipated, she clenched her lower lip, and said in a low voice: "I can't hurt him."

"Your Majesty! You must let go of General Zheng!" Yancao said seriously, "In your eyes, the lives of hundreds of us are no better than General Zheng alone?"

Concubine Chen opened her mouth, and when she was about to speak, she heard hurried footsteps outside.

The palace people looked nervous and shouted at the same time: "General Zheng came with the imperial army, saying that he wanted to protect the safety of the empress!"

The voice of the palace man outside the door completely calmed Concubine Chen's wavering heart.

She looked at Yancao, and slowly shook her head under Yancao's gaze: "Yancao, I still can't do it."

Yancao heard the words, and sighed: "I have already guessed it, if you are so cruel, how can you suffer for such a long time? But empress, you have to think about it! You are kind at this moment, what will be left behind There will be endless troubles!"

"I don't care." Concubine Chen smiled miserably, "Mother is almost unable to survive this summer, once mother dies, I have nothing to worry about!"

"But don't worry, before I die, I will definitely send someone to settle you down! I will never let you be implicated by me."

Yancao shook her head: "Since the servant girl is with the empress, she will belong to the empress for the rest of her life. The empress gives birth to the slave servant, and if the empress dies, the slave servant will never live!"

Speaking of this, the sound of neat footsteps outside the door has stopped.

A moment later, there was a knock on the temple door.

Zheng Li's voice sounded: "Chen Concubine, my servant has followed the emperor's order and led troops to garrison Zhaoyang Hall for a day and a night. Please forgive me if I offend you."

Concubine Chen responded with a low voice, her voice was ethereal.

Zheng Li listened, feeling extremely distressed.

Late at night.

Concubine Chen was tossing and turning on the bed, as soon as she closed her eyes, she would think of the embarrassing face of the emperor after the incident was revealed.

When she thought of this, she couldn't sleep anymore.

At this time, there was a sound of cuckoo at the window.

The sound was very faint, but in the night, Concubine Chen could hear it very clearly.

A flash of joy flashed across her eyes, but after thinking about her current situation, she stopped when she was about to get up, should she go out?

This thought crossed Chen Fei's mind.

At this time, the window was opened from the outside, and a person jumped in directly through the window.

Concubine Chen let out a low exclamation, waking up the swallow grass guarded outside.

"Your Majesty!" Yan Cao was about to come in when she heard Concubine Chen's hasty voice, "Don't come in!"

Yancao just stopped when she raised her feet, her eyes were panicked, but after a while, she regained her composure. She knew why Concubine Chen made these movements, and that person might have seen Concubine Chen.

Thinking of this, she took a deep breath, put on her outer clothes and walked quickly outside the hall.

Tonight, she will never let anyone get close to here!

In the hall, under the faint candlelight, Concubine Chen saw the handsome face of the visitor.

The moment she saw him, the grievance in Concubine Chen's heart flowed out along with tears: "Why are you here? Didn't I tell you already? Let's not see each other again! If the emperor finds out, whether it is The Chu family or the Zheng family, I'm afraid there will only be one end!"

Zheng Li stood at the window, he closed the window gently, and then slowly walked in front of Concubine Chen, his eyes were full of pain: "I don't want to either! But the moment I saw you today, I knew that I would let you go!" No more!"

"Xiaoxuan, tell me, this child in your womb...is it..." Zheng Li paused for a while before saying the next sentence, "Is it mine?"

Hearing this, Concubine Chen immediately shook her head: "No! You guessed wrong!"

With her appearance like this, Zheng Li could only confirm the guess in his heart.

At this moment, Zheng Li was both excited and reluctant.

He lowered his head, and after a while, he suddenly said: "You give birth to the child, and with this child, your glory and wealth for the rest of your life... will be preserved."

"What glory and wealth!" Concubine Chen sneered, "Do you really think I care about these glory and wealth? I never cared about these things!"

Because of excitement, Concubine Chen's voice became hoarse.

Zheng Li smiled wryly. He came forward and gently wiped away the tears from Concubine Chen's eyes, "That's not what I mean, I know that you are always the most satisfied. Back then, a bamboo dragonfly could make you happy for a long time .”

"But you have already entered the palace, if you don't have a son and a half to rely on in the future, what should you do?" Zheng Li put his arms around her shoulders and said softly, "You don't have to worry, I will definitely hide this matter In my heart, let it rot in my heart!"

Concubine Chen cried and laughed, extremely embarrassed.

"To put it simply." She whispered, "You don't know how scared I am when I face Chen Daochang today! I'm afraid that my secret will be seen through by Chen Daochang!"

"It's not a pity for me to die, but you still have a bright future, and I can't hurt my uncle and aunt!" Concubine Chen threw herself into Zheng Li's arms and cried pitifully, "What can I do? Could it be that I can only regard this child as the emperor's child..."

"Xiaoxuan, don't worry, with me here, I will definitely protect your mother and child." Zheng Li whispered a word in Concubine Chen's ear when he said this.

Concubine Chen's eyes widened instantly, and she forgot to cry: "Are you crazy?"

"For you and the child, I am willing to give up these things." Zheng Li said softly, "Since the emperor removed the shadow guards, there is a great need for a group of people who are loyal to him. Opponent, as long as I am willing to let go of such things, the emperor will definitely agree to let me stay in the palace, and I will be able to protect your mother and child."

Concubine Chen's eyes were red with anxiety, worried that there were still people outside, she lowered her voice, and roared: "But you have become an eunuch! Why are you doing this?"

"As early as when you were selected as the show girl, I already thought that I might as well enter the palace and become a eunuch, so that I can be with you forever. Doing this now is just to realize the idea I had back then. That's all." When Zheng Li spoke, he seemed careless, as if this was a very common thing.

However, Concubine Chen knew that no one would send their children to the palace as eunuchs if they were not desperate. Eunuchs are the lowest in the palace. Even if Zheng Li can gain the emperor's trust, so what?That's just the second Li Dehai!

Concubine Chen thought of this, and eagerly pinched Zheng Li's sleeve: "No! I don't agree with you doing this!"

She took a deep breath, gritted her teeth and said, "I've made it clear, the child in my womb belongs to the emperor. I've never known you before, and I've never had any relationship with you!"

"Zheng Li!" She called Zheng Li's name, with a sense of determination, "I betrayed you! You live your life well! Don't do those stupid things for me anymore!"
