No matter how angry Princess Mu was, she didn't dare to show it. No matter how crazy she was, she had to endure it and replied in a good voice: "It's probably because of a gastrointestinal problem. Granddaughter-in-law can just go out for a walk..."

But the Queen Mother said lovingly: "Don't be careless if you have gastrointestinal discomfort. It's better to see the imperial doctor for a closer look."

Many people's eyes fell on Princess Mu. Everyone knew that the Queen Mother was deliberately targeting Princess Mu.

It is also that Princess Mu is the daughter-in-law of the imperial concubine.

Everyone knows that the Queen Mother does not want to see the Imperial Concubine.

Princess Mu's face was filled with fever, and she felt that so many eyes on her were laughing at her.

She didn't dare to look at anyone, so she hurriedly bowed to the Queen Mother and said, "Thank you for your concern, Grandma Imperial. My granddaughter-in-law does not dare to bother Grandma Imperial. She will go and see the imperial doctor herself..."

After saying that, she turned around and left in a hurry, forgetting even her sister.

Zhao Yuwei also blushed and silently saluted the Queen Mother, and quickly chased after her.

Concubine Wan's beautiful eyes were full of excitement. It felt so good to sit on a mountain and watch a tiger fight.

As soon as she had this idea, she met Sheng Yunzhao's gaze.

Jiang Wanyin's heart thumped, and she looked away almost out of instinct, not daring to look at her.

When she realized what she had done, she was secretly angry and avoided her sight like this, as if she was afraid of her.

All the good mood was suddenly reduced.

Listening to the Queen Mother's concerned questions about Sheng Yunzhao's pregnancy, her eyes couldn't help but look at Sheng Yunzhao's bulging belly.

Jiang Wanyin's heart suddenly ached as if someone had grabbed her.

If there were no accidents, her child would have been this old...

but……

Thinking of that child, Jiang Wanyin's good mood plummeted.

At this time, the Queen Mother seemed to have something to say to Sheng Yunzhao, so she dismissed everyone.

"Mrs. Protector, what are you looking at?"

When Sheng Yunzhao heard the Queen Mother's inquiry, he looked away from Concubine Wan's back and said, "My maid is looking at Concubine Wan."

The Queen Mother's fingers subconsciously twitched after hearing this, but she had seen strong winds and waves after all. She smiled calmly and said, "Oh? What's wrong with Concubine Wan?"

Sheng Yunzhao said with a light smile on his face: "I am thinking about how beautiful Concubine Wan is."

The Queen Mother secretly breathed a sigh of relief. She thought Sheng Yunzhao had noticed something.

Then she heard the next sentence: "I don't know where Concubine Wan was raised. She is so beautiful. No wonder she became the favorite of the Sixth Palace in a short period of time..."

When the Queen Mother heard this, she thought to herself that you are a beauty yourself, so why should you envy her?

In her opinion, Jiang Wanyin's beauty was completely tailor-made for her son, a little more tacky.

And Sheng Yunzhao's beauty is noble and beautiful...

While looking at her like this, the Queen Mother's eyes were a little dazed, as if she saw the woman deep in her memory.

"The Queen Mother?" Sheng Yunzhao couldn't help but call out when he saw the Queen Mother looking at him in a daze.

The Queen Mother was brought back to her senses by her neither gentle nor serious voice, and she secretly felt funny. She was really old, how could she think of that woman...

She remembered the topic just now and said nonchalantly: "Being favored by the Sixth Palace is a bit exaggerated. In the harem, can you continue to be favored like an imperial concubine and make men inseparable? This is the real thing." The ability..."

The Queen Mother realized that she had said too much and decisively changed the subject, "The Ai family heard a few days ago that the Regent went to the General's Mansion to ask to marry you?"

Sheng Yunzhao's originally cheerful expression suddenly faded a bit: "The Queen Mother is well-informed..."

She knew that the Queen Mother would not miss the opportunity to test her.

The Queen Mother looked at her extraordinarily beautiful face for a moment, envy flashed in her eyes, and she said with emotion: "It's no wonder that the Regent has always been obsessed with you..."

Sheng Yunzhao's heart tightened slightly, but he said nonchalantly on his face: "He is not obsessing over it. The regent's temperament means that he will retaliate. It is obviously to take revenge on me.

As the saying goes, there must be monsters when something goes wrong. The Queen Mother might as well think about it. Is the Regent such a flamboyant person? Besides, what man would want to raise a child for someone else? "

The Queen Mother shook her head and objected: "You are still too young to understand a man's mind. From the night you were bitten by a poisonous snake, it can be seen from the Regent's behavior that he still has feelings for you."

As she thought, the Queen Mother was not easy to fool.

But she was well prepared, and her expression was still nonchalant as she sneered, "The Queen Mother is so wise and she should know that people's hearts are fickle, so how long can the old friendship last?"

The Queen Mother's old eyes flashed, and then she said earnestly: "Girl, what do you think so much about? After all, this is just your idea. How will you know if you don't try..."

"I've already tried it once and made myself extremely embarrassed. I..." Sheng Yunzhao said with a choked voice.

After a pause, Sheng Yunzhao sniffed, as if he couldn't speak anymore.

Then he raised his eyes, pretending to be strong, and asked the Queen Mother, "What do you think of me now?"

The Queen Mother was stunned, "Now..."

"Now I don't have my parents-in-law to make things difficult for me, and I don't have my sister-in-law to act mischievously. Not to mention how happy and relaxed I am on my own. Why should I cause trouble for myself?"

The Queen Mother was in a daze and had no intention of testing her love anymore, so she chatted a few more words with her, and specifically asked her to participate in tomorrow's autumn hunt, then sent Sheng Yunzhao away. .

As soon as they left, Hu Dezhong was about to speak when he saw that the Queen Mother's eyes were blurred, her expression was dazed, and she was a little confused, "The Queen Mother, what's wrong with you?"

After being interrupted from thinking about it, the Queen Mother still looked a little dazed and raised her old eyes, looked at Hu Dezhong and asked: "Have you noticed who Sheng Yunzhao looks like?"

Hu Dezhong was stunned by the Queen Mother's question and repeated, "Who does he look like?"

He first thought of Sheng Kuan and said in a deep voice: "Sheng Kuan has good facial features, probably because he has been on the battlefield, but his demeanor is a bit rough.

But He has a soft-tempered temperament. The important thing is his appearance. He is used to seeing beauties, but at most he is only average-looking...

No matter how much the Protector of the Country is the president, if she only picks out the merits of the couple, she may not be able to produce a child as beautiful as that. But the point is that the features of the Protector of the Country are not like those of the two. Could it be that..."

However, Hu Dezhong's unintentional remarks aroused suspicion in the Queen Mother's heart, "If you ask someone to investigate later, I believe some old people in the General's Mansion or He's close confidants may know more..."

Hu Dezhong was startled, "Does the Queen Mother suspect that Madam Protector is not Sheng Kuan's biological daughter?"

"The Empress Dowager didn't say anything, so I didn't think anything was wrong. After you said this, I thought about it carefully and felt more and more that Mrs. Protector and Sheng Kuan were not alike at all." Hu Dezhong said in surprise: "But Then if she’s not the daughter of Sheng Kuan, then who is she?”
