A concubine's daughter is reborn and I want to enter the palace!

Concubine Qing herself once asked herself why she didn't take the opportunity to get rid of Song Qingwan and her unborn child.

The answer is, compared to getting rid of Song Qingwan, it seems more meaningful to get rid of the Queen, who is a stumbling block!

The queen holds a high position of power and has given birth to the second prince. If the most favored Song Qingwan is eliminated, there will be no one in the harem to compete with the queen!

By using Song Qingwan's hand to get rid of the queen, and then getting rid of Song Qingwan in the next step, things would become much easier. Although Song Qingwan was favored, she had no family background, and she also had the fatal title of concubine's daughter!

Moreover, she was pregnant with twins this time, which were bound to be difficult to deliver. It was still unknown whether she could give birth to them and whether they could survive.

Another key point is that Concubine Qing has always suspected that the death of her eldest prince was related to the queen...

Outside Yufangzhai

The Queen first noticed Xia Lu. Xia Lu had always been serving the Emperor and doing things specifically for him. Therefore, the Queen felt that Xia Lu’s appearance here at this moment must be to assist the Emperor in his attempt to replace the former with the latter!

So the Queen said to the Queen Mother, "Mother, look, isn't that Xia Lu who is beside the Emperor? How come he came here when Concubine Yu gave birth?"

He hesitated to say, "Could it be... that you are here to help the Emperor as I thought..."

When the Queen Mother heard this, she immediately stopped Xia Lu.

"You, stop right there!"

When Xia Lu and his companions heard the sound, they immediately turned around and saw the Queen Mother, the Empress, and others had actually come here.

Xia Lu had to stop and pay respects. "Your servant pays respects to the Queen Mother and the Queen!"

The Queen Mother asked, "What are you doing in the Emperor's harem?"

Xia Lu had no choice but to say, "Her Majesty, I am here to accompany you at the order of the Emperor, and I have no other intentions."

The sharp-eyed queen noticed what Xia Lu was holding. Perhaps it was a dead baby that had been arranged in advance, so that after Song Qingwan gave birth to twins, one of the children would be replaced with another.

The Queen said, "Mother, what is the box in Xia Lu's hand?"

Then he lowered his voice and said, "Look at the shape and size of this box. It seems to be just right. It can hold a baby..."

After hearing what the Queen said, the Queen Mother said to Xia Lu, "Xia Lu, what is that thing in your hand? Open it and let me see it!"

Xia Lu would not open it easily without the emperor's order. Even in the face of pressure from the empress dowager and the queen, Xia Lu said calmly:

"Please forgive me, Queen Mother and Empress Dowager. I cannot open this box without the Emperor's order."

Before the Queen Mother could speak, the Empress was the first to shout, "You daring servant! How dare you disobey the Queen Mother's orders!"

Xia Lu said, "Your Majesty, please forgive me. I am working for the Emperor. Without the Emperor's order, no matter who it is, I cannot open it."

When the Queen Mother heard this, she became so angry that her face turned red and she gasped.

"Okay, okay, I see that you are all getting bolder and bolder, and you are taking me less and less seriously!"

"Someone, help me down. I want to go to Yufangzhai in person and see what the emperor will do when I get in front of him!"

As she spoke, a maid helped the empress dowager down from the sedan chair and walked into Yufangzhai.

The Queen followed closely behind, and when she passed by Xia Lu, she deliberately said, "If you make the Queen Mother angry and cause any harm, I will see how you will explain it to me!"

Then he glanced at the box in Xia Lu's hand and walked in.

Xia Lu followed the two of them and finally understood why the emperor said there was no rush just now. Fortunately, he didn't really bring it. Otherwise, if he confronted him in front of the empress dowager and the queen, it would really be impossible to resolve the situation!

"The Queen Mother has arrived! The Queen has arrived!"

Yingcan was squatting outside the door. When he heard the announcement, he stood up in shock. Why did the two of them suddenly come over? What should he do...

If they were not there, if the young lady really gave birth to two identical children, the emperor would definitely find a way to end the matter. But once the empress dowager and the queen arrived, the emperor would be powerless to do anything no matter how much he wanted to protect the young lady!

As I was thinking this, the Queen Mother had already left.

Yingcan had no choice but to bow and said, "I pay my respects to the Queen Mother and the Empress."

The Queen Mother ignored her greeting and said directly to the servant beside her, "Open the door!"

Yingcan hesitated and said, "Queen Mother..."

Before Yingcan could finish his words, someone opened the door and helped the Queen Mother in, with the Queen following closely.

Yingcan looked at the backs of the two people and her palms were sweating. Although the emperor had just driven her out, she still followed the palace maids behind the queen and walked in together.

Seeing such a huge commotion, Xiao Rui said, "Why did the Queen Mother come here suddenly? Come, please give her a seat!"

The Queen Mother sat on the chair and said, "Humph, if I hadn't come here, I wouldn't have known how lively it is here."

Xiao Rui looked at the Queen unhappily again, "Queen, did you go to Shoukang Palace specifically to invite the Queen Mother over? Yufangzhai is a remote place, and the Queen Mother is not feeling well. How can you tire her out like this!"

The Queen said, "Your Majesty, I heard that Concubine Yu was about to give birth. Concubine Yu's situation was more special than others. I was very anxious, so I asked the Queen Mother to come with me."

Xiao Rui looked at the Queen unkindly and asked, "How did the Queen know that Concubine Yu was about to give birth? I only found out about it when Concubine Yu's personal maid invited me here. How could the Queen predict it?"

"Or is it that there are the Queen's eyes near Yufangzhai?"

These words made the queen feel cold behind her back.

The Queen then pushed the blame on Zuo Wenyi, "It was Concubine Kang. Concubine Kang met the Emperor on the road and came to report to me. I was worried, so..."

The queen's voice became softer as she spoke further, because the person staring at her were Xiao Rui's cold eyes.

Yingcan and the palace maids stood aside, cursing in their hearts, this queen is not a good person, and Concubine Kang is also a good-for-nothing, they are really two-faced!

The Queen Mother spoke, interrupting the silence.

"How's it going in there?"

Xiao Rui shook his head. "I just came out from inside, and the situation is not optimistic."

The Queen Mother then sent for someone to come and ask, "Go and call a midwife to come out and answer the question."

At this time, a midwife was called out.

The Queen Mother asked, "How is Concubine Yu doing? Has she not given birth to a child yet?"

The midwife answered truthfully, "To answer the Queen Mother's question, the old servant and the Emperor have just said that Concubine Yu is thin and thin, her pelvis is too narrow, and she is pregnant with twins, so it is indeed difficult to give birth."

When the queen heard this, she deliberately said, "How about this? Mother, don't forget that the son of Concubine Ru was born late, so he died at birth..."

The Queen Mother could no longer sit still and ordered, "Quick! Find a way to have Concubine Yu give birth to the heir safely. Make sure to protect the baby!"
