A shrill rebuttal with a strong crying tone came from the direction of the inner room.

"Your Majesty, it's obvious that she is the one who wants to steal my child! She can't give birth herself, so she wants to steal my child. Wuwuwu, Your Majesty, you have to avenge our son!"

Perhaps the pain of losing her son was too deep, Concubine Li did not care about her extremely weak body, and stumbled from the inner room to the door as pale as a ghost.

"Even though I am not as virtuous as her, I am still the head of a palace. My family is not a small family, so why should I give my child to her to raise after ten months of pregnancy?

How can this be justified, Your Majesty?

I just went to argue with her, but the result was... wuwuwu, my child..."

At least she remembered not to offend the Emperor and the Empress Dowager. She cried through the door like a weeping beast, which was heartbreaking to hear.

The virtuous concubine reacted very quickly and knelt down to apologize.

"Your Majesty, I have never had such intention!

I said at the beginning that it would be enough for me to raise my Anu to adulthood in this lifetime, and I would never raise a child from another womb.

I still say this now. I, Xu Youran, will never raise a child born to someone else in this life!"

The virtuous concubine's words were so powerful that they could easily evoke the guilt hidden deep in the emperor's heart.

The virtuous concubine suffered from a difficult labor in order to protect herself from disaster. She gave birth to a sickly daughter, Fu Kang, after several near-death experiences. As a result, she was unable to have children again.

Among the four concubines of Guide, Shuxian and Xian, only the Xu family did not have a prince. And over the years, the Xu family had never intended to send a daughter to the palace to bear a child for the Xian concubine.

Compared to the Zheng family, who had ugly eating habits, the Xu family was obviously much more particular. And it was precisely because of this that the virtuous concubine and her daughter were three points more respectable than others in the eyes of the emperor and even the empress dowager.

Logically speaking, the emperor was willing to trust Concubine Xian's character. After all, she was the daughter of the Xu family who was carefully raised, and she was well-known for her noble character and thoughtful behavior over the years.

But people’s minds are fickle, and who knows whether their original thoughts will be different from their current thoughts?

The emperor was already quite old, and his princes had grown up. A new round of succession struggle had already begun to stir up turbulent waves beneath the calm surface.

Can the Xu family really remain indifferent?

"Your Majesty, don't listen to Xu's excuses!

She just pushed me to the ground in anger because she failed to get my son back, and killed our son!

Your Majesty, you must make the decision for me and my son!

The virtuous concubine is not virtuous and the Xu family is not loyal. How dare they deliberately murder the concubine and the prince…"

Concubine Li didn't know yet that someone had actually listened to the whole thing. So she started to cry and defend herself, and every word she said was to trample Concubine Xian to death.

The Queen Mother looked at her son's increasingly ugly expression, frowned slightly but said nothing.

He just called his silly granddaughter to him and grabbed her hand, making it clear that you can tear each other as much as you want, but no one is allowed to involve the princess.

The concubines around, seeing how the Queen Mother was protecting the Seventh Princess, began to think quietly in their hearts.

Concubine Xian couldn't possibly be a fool. She had a princess herself, and she would never let her daughter get involved in the mean tricks of the women in the palace. So let alone the Queen Mother's protection, even if the Queen Mother didn't express her opinion, Concubine Xian would never be stupid enough to involve the Seventh Princess.

After so many years of exposure to the imperial court, how could she not have eaten pork but also seen pigs run? She had a lot of words to defend herself.

"Your Majesty, I don't know why Concubine Li said that. But I have never said anything like trying to steal someone's son!

Concubine Li, I have lived an upright life. Don't try to accuse me of something I have never done.

You keep saying that I want to snatch the prince from your belly. When did I tell you that? Where did I tell you that? If you have evidence, show it to us. We can have a clear conversation face to face.

If the emperor finds out that it was really me, Xu Youran, who did the evil, let alone the title of virtuous concubine, I can even give you my life!

But if you wantonly accuse my Xu family without any evidence, I can only guess whether it was intentional on your part..."

"Xu, how dare you slander me! I did it on purpose. I will not use my own son's life to accuse you! You evil woman, you shall not die well!"

"Concubine Li, I understand your grief over the loss of your son, but please don't say such mean things. Again, if you have evidence, show it to me. If you can convince me, then I'll give you my life.

If you still rely on your misery to make trouble and wantonly insult the high-ranking imperial concubine, don't blame me for being rude to you!"

"What dare you do? You killed my child, and you still have the audacity to threaten me? Your Majesty, please make the decision for me."

The two palace concubines were separated by a door, and the husband said that he was right and the wife said that she was right. It was so exciting and intense that the little hair on Chu Daidaichou's head shook.

I don’t understand, so anxious!

Who is Xiao Hongfei's reason or Xiao Lanfei's reason? Xiao Hongfei is crying so hard in the room, why don't you cry, Xiao Lanfei?

Also, wasn't it the Little Red Concubine and the Little Blue Concubine who were fighting just now? Why did the Little Green Concubine standing next to them look so scared?

"They are just arguing peacefully. What does it have to do with you? Why are you trembling?"

This is the good thing about honest children: they ask whatever they want.

When Concubine Xian heard this, her eyes flashed and she raised her eyebrows and looked over.

The guilty conscience on Concubine Liu's face, which she hadn't been able to hide in time, was all seen by her eyes, so she immediately thought of a possibility. Could it be that this Liu was behind this?

"I am also a little curious. I am confronting Concubine Li. Concubine Liu, why are you so guilty?"

Concubine Liu was pointed out by the fool and now asked by Concubine Xian about it. She wanted to slap her mouth and curse wildly. But her face was full of a wronged expression as if she had been wronged.

"What does the virtuous concubine mean by this? I don't understand. And Seventh Princess, why are you involving me for no reason?

I know you have a good relationship with Princess Fukang, but there is no need to drag innocent people into exonerating Concubine Xian, right?

Your Majesty, I am wronged!"

Chen Fei was almost amused by this idiot, and quickly lowered her head further.

Liu was able to give birth to a prince smoothly and successfully ascend to the position of consort with this child. It must be said that in addition to her good luck in having a son, it was definitely related to the protection given to her by the original main concubine.

But what is Concubine Liu doing now?

Biting back at the benefactor?

Hahaha.

It's so interesting that Concubine Xian is so smart and clever, but she actually did something like raising an ungrateful person.

This incident was enough to make everyone laugh at her for three years.
