A concubine's daughter is reborn and I want to enter the palace!
Chapter 499 Things are going to change
When Concubine Shen's heir started the incident, Zhenzhu had already written a letter home and had it sent out of the palace.
General House
General Zhao walked around the room, "It's been so long since Lin'er gave birth, why hasn't there been any good news from the palace yet?"
Madam Zhao said, "Master, this matter cannot be rushed. Giving birth to a child is like stepping into the gates of hell!"
"Besides, this is Lin'er's first baby, so the birth will be slower. Let's wait a little longer."
General Zhao said impatiently, "I have been waiting for so long! If I wait any longer, Prince Anling will have to set off! Is there anyone who can lend me a hand?"
After he said this, Madam Zhao also thought of it and said, "Master, the emperor seems to want Prince Anling to set off today and go to the northern border..."
General Zhao took a deep breath. It was really nothing. Whatever he asked for, it was nothing. Whatever he was afraid of, it would come true!
At this moment, the counselor suddenly came in hurriedly with a happy look on his face.
When General Zhao saw the counselor coming, he signaled his wife to leave.
"What's wrong? Tell me!" General Zhao asked anxiously.
The counselor narrowed his eyes and smiled, "It was a letter from King Anling. He just sent someone to the tavern to hand his subordinates a letter saying that he did not really set out, but was lurking in the suburbs!"
"Just wait for the general's order, and he will lead his elite troops into the palace with you!"
After hearing this, General Zhao laughed out loud, stroked his beard and said, "Hahahaha, good, good!"
"Now this general can sit still and wait for Lin'er's good news!"
The counselor realized something and said, "That's not right, General. How many days has it been since the Queen gave birth? How come there's no news from the palace? Not only that, there's been no news from Miss Pearl recently!"
"Even if there is no news from the palace, Miss Pearl shouldn't keep silent. Whether it is easy to give birth or not, she should at least reply with a letter! They know that we are in urgent need outside the palace!"
After hearing what the counselor said, General Zhao felt confused and had a bad premonition.
She comforted herself and said, "It should be fine. Maybe Lin'er is giving birth in the palace and has no time to take care of her. Pearl is also busy taking care of Lin'er, so she didn't reply!"
The counselor still felt something was wrong.
"At the last palace banquet, the Emperor demoted Concubine Yu and relocated her in public. I had a feeling something was wrong. Xiao has always doted on Concubine Yu and entrusted her with all the affairs of the harem. But just because she offended our queen with a few words, he suddenly punished her!"
"If the Xiao family really cared about our queen so much, they would have dealt with that concubine Yu long ago. Why would they wait until now to deal with her suddenly?"
General Zhao was extremely confused after hearing this and didn't know how to explain it. He was just feeling thankful at the time and didn't think too much about it.
"Could it be that Xiao Rui knew we were going to take action? So he moved his beloved woman away in advance?"
The counselor nodded and said, "It's not impossible."
"It's bad, General! It's bad, General!"
A hurried voice was heard.
"Come in." General Zhao said with a frown.
They were discussing important matters. What bad thing could have happened again?
"What's the matter?" The counselor said, staring at the butler who came in.
The housekeeper trembled and said, "The emperor... the emperor issued an order... to demote our queen to a commoner... and temporarily confine her..."
General Zhao and his advisers said in unison, "What?!"
General Zhao wondered, "Could it be that Lin'er really gave birth to a princess, and the baby boy I had arranged in advance failed to be replaced by a princess?"
The counselor said, "That's not right, General. Even if she gave birth to a princess, she would be a meritorious official of Daqing. How can you demote her to a commoner?"
General Zhao asked, "What's going on?"
The housekeeper summoned up the courage to speak, "The queen, she faked a pregnancy to win favor, deceiving the emperor... She and Doctor Tan and Zhenzhu were all executed..."
"Fake pregnancy?!" General Zhao said
"Fake pregnancy?!!!" said the strategist.
General Zhao slapped his forehead and said, "Lin'er is so confused!"
The counselor said, "That's impossible. Doctor Tan is obviously one of our men, General. How can Doctor Tan not tell if it's a fake pregnancy? Your Majesty would never take such a risky move!"
The housekeeper said, "It is indeed a false pregnancy... I have inquired about it, and the midwife and the imperial physician who were present can all prove that the queen is not pregnant..."
General Zhao still couldn't believe it.
"Two months ago, Madam went to the palace to visit Lin'er and said that Lin'er's belly was pointed and it looked like she was having a boy. How come it suddenly became a false pregnancy?"
The housekeeper said, "The people who came said that the queen took medicine from the Western Regions... The general is the only one in Kyoto who has been to the Western Regions. Let the general go to the Yangxin Palace to meet the emperor tomorrow..."
The counselor was disheartened.
An idea suddenly occurred to him and he said, "I know, General! Xiao Rui must have predicted our actions and killed the queen's newborn baby! He also silenced Tan Chenwei and Zhenzhu! He also bribed everyone to say that the queen faked pregnancy to deceive the emperor!"
General Zhao was furious.
"Xiao Rui has such a cruel heart! He even killed his own child! Even a tiger won't eat its own cubs!"
The counselor snorted coldly, "He has so many children in his harem, how could he be missing this one born by the queen!"
"General, Xiao Rui is forcing us to take action!"
General Zhao was so angry that his head was spinning. He said, "Take action! We must take action! This is too hateful! He dares to ask me to see the emperor tomorrow. I will charge into the imperial city tonight!"
The counselor said, "Okay, with what the general said, I will send a letter to King Anling right away! Tell him to prepare for battle!"
After the letter was delivered, General Zhao gradually regained his senses.
"Xiao Rui must have known about it, that's for sure. But Lin'er is still in his hands. He asked me to go to the palace to see him tomorrow, so he naturally knew that I wouldn't dare to act rashly!"
"I'm afraid that if I take action, Lin'er will definitely die. He is threatening me with my daughter."
The counselor advised, "General, you have been planning your grand plan for so long. You finally arranged so many spies and informants in the palace, and sent the queen to the palace. Isn't it all for today?"
"General, please don't be indecisive! You can't catch a wolf without sacrificing a lamb! King Anling is still waiting for your signal to act!"
"After you kill Xiao Rui, kill all those who know about it, and pretend that there is an assassin in the palace. Then you go into the palace to rescue the emperor, and then find a baby and say that it is the queen's child. Assist him and become the regent! Then you will have the final say in the world!"
General Zhao hesitated. "Ignoring Lin'er's life, a tiger eats its own cubs. What's the difference between me and Xiao Rui..."
The counselor continued, "Is the general just going to swallow his anger? When he goes to the palace to see the emperor tomorrow, Xiao Rui will accuse him of being from the Western Regions? And then he will be demoted and have his power taken away from him?"
After hearing this, General Zhao's eyes instantly turned red.
"No! Take action tonight!!! Lin'er, don't blame your father. Your father is avenging you!!"
