Become a winner in life after binding the childbearing system
Chapter 47 Cannon Fodder Concubine (47)
"Everyone is gone, and you still want to lie in bed pretending to be in labor?" Don't you think it's too deliberate?
The system's voice rang in Shen Yao's mind as punctually as an alarm clock.
Shen Yao's expression changed immediately, from sadness to indifference.
"Do I still need to pretend? This body is a miscarriage to begin with."
Shen Yao did not feel embarrassed at all when being exposed by the system, and she didn't even think she had deceived anyone.
After all, some people say that if a miscarriage is faked with medicine, is it not a miscarriage? The imperial physician gave a diagnosis.
The pulse was clear and clearly showed her physical condition.
There was even a lot of blood under her body after she fell. All of this is traceable. Why is she pretending?
The system was aware of its host's shamelessness and felt that such a reaction from the host was to be expected.
"Although the fake pregnancy pills do not harm the body, in order to avoid the slightest risk later on, the host cannot get pregnant within the next two years."
This was what the system had explained to Shen Yao again and again when she first took the pill.
Afraid that Shen Yao would forget, the system kept bringing up this topic over and over again.
Shen Yao rolled her eyes while lying on the bed. "You and I know Xiao Yanchen's situation well. If you want to get pregnant, you need external help. With the current medical level of the Dajing Dynasty, do you think those fertility remedies out there will be useful?"
The aftereffects are terrifying, and the concubines in the harem have suffered from them so many times.
"Don't worry, I used the fake pregnancy pill for a purpose. Look, the ban on Weiyang Palace has been lifted.
I think it won’t be long before I am cleared of all the false charges against me.”
By then, Shen Yao will be a brave man again and can go wherever she wants.
The system sighed, "How did the host think that Concubine Sun would come to Weiyang Palace?"
As the name suggests, fake pregnancy pills are drugs that allow people to pretend to be pregnant.
If taken directly, it will take seven to ten days for the human body to take effect.
In other words, Shen Yao had taken the fake pregnancy pills early on.
Sun Churuo's visit today just happened to fulfill Shen Yao's series of arrangements.
Shen Yao turned sideways, and at the same time pulled up the blanket on her body, "I didn't expect her to come over."
In fact, Shen Yao originally intended to use the fake pregnancy pills on other people.
Even for Xiao Yanchen, this is a possibility.
After all, fake pregnancy pills can maintain normal fetal breathing for about two months.
During this period of time, as long as Shen Yao finds the person he wants to attack, the probability of success is very high.
The reason why it finally fell on Sun Churuo was that Sun Churuo jumped into it himself, and Shen Yao just chose to go with the flow.
Furthermore, Sun Churuo herself had bad intentions, so she couldn't blame Shen Yao for plotting against her.
Everyone wins or loses based on their own skills, and Sun Churuo simply lacks the skills of others.
Shen Yao would not consider what would happen to Sun Churuo if he was tricked by her and was charged with the crime of murdering the royal heir. After all, it was all a game of winners and losers.
Closing her eyes and telling the system to shut up, Shen Yao relaxed and fell asleep.
Shen Yao slept very sweetly this time.
Maybe everything was moving in a good direction, and Shen Yao's daily life became regular.
The Weiyang Palace, which had been somewhat loose and uncontrollable, had returned to its previous order.
This is the charm of the emperor's visit. Even though Shen Yao's charges have not been completely cleared, the public opinion in the harem regarding Weiyang Palace has changed for the better.
In sharp contrast to the Weiyang Palace is the Changle Palace, which was in a state of disrepair.
First he lost his own son, then he came to the Weiyang Palace and caused Concubine Xi to have a miscarriage.
Thanks to the things Sun Churuo did, she was given the treatment of being confined in the palace as she wished.
What's even worse than Shen Yao is that Shen Yao's imprisonment in the palace was just an imperial decree, and it has no impact on her own status and offspring for the time being.
But on Sun Churuo's side, Xiao Yanchen might be extremely annoyed with her.
Not only was she demoted from the second-rank concubine position, she was also demoted all the way back to the fourth-rank imperial concubine.
He also removed the third prince Xiao Jin, who was born under Sun Churuo's paternal line, from the jade plate.
In other words, although Xiao Jin died, he did not die as Sun Churuo's biological son. His mother was Concubine Zhou Ningyan, who died early.
Sun Churuo:……? !!!
When Sun Churuo heard the news, he became even more devastated.
He pointed at the eunuch who delivered the imperial edict and accused him of falsely delivering it. He also threatened that he had caught Concubine Xi, saying that Concubine Xi was the culprit and that the emperor was shielding the murderer and was unfair to them mother and son...blah blah blah.
"Sun Jieyu has gone completely crazy," and it seems like she has no desire to survive at all.
In front of the palace people, he dared to say anything. Even if what Sun Churuo said was true, it would be regarded as nonsense, not to mention that what Sun Churuo said was false.
Qiuyue brought some medicine to her master, as her master had suffered a miscarriage and needed to recuperate.
Medicines like these need to be taken every day and cannot be stopped for the time being.
"Your Highness, the imperial doctors diagnosed Concubine Sun as having mental problems due to excessive stimulation. Don't take anything she says seriously in the future."
He is just a madman, no one will believe the nonsense he says.
Shen Yao smiled, blew lightly on the medicine scooped out with a spoon, put it into her mouth and swallowed it in small sips, "It's better not to take it seriously, at least you can live a little longer. If you take it seriously, that will be the end of Concubine Sun's life."
Who made Sun Churuo know too much? Many people, both inside and outside the palace, hoped that she would be eliminated as soon as possible.
This is the impact of being in a high position. Whether you win or lose, there will be a lot of shit behind you.
Shen Yao never does these things, perhaps because she finds them troublesome.
After all, it would be fine if everything succeeded. If not, being drained of blood and eaten of flesh would be the least of the consequences.
Qiuyue watched her master finish the medicine in his hand and quickly reached out to take it.
Then she served the tea for rinsing the mouth and asked in a low voice whether the master wanted to have a meal.
Miscarriage is harmful to the body. After waking up, Shen Yao has been recuperating in bed and would not get out of bed easily.
What's more, Shen Yao didn't tell anyone about this matter and just announced the big news directly.
Not only was Xiao Yanchen so frightened that he could not sit still in the Taiji Hall, but Qiuyue was almost frightened to death. She is still very nervous and gets worried whenever she faces Shen Yao.
Shen Yao had advised Qiuyue to calm down many times. Besides, she was a normal person and would not do anything dangerous again. It was unnecessary for Qiuyue to do this.
But whenever this is mentioned, Qiuyue is the kind of person who agrees with a nod, but still carries out her own requirements behind the scenes.
It was like Shen Yao was just talking about loneliness, and it didn't have any effect at all.
Later, Shen Yao simply stopped saying these words and let Qiuyue deal with it. It wouldn't do any harm to her anyway.
As a result, Qiuyue now serves Shen Yao as if she were taking care of a broken porcelain doll, more carefully than taking care of several children.
Returning the mouthwash cup to Qiuyue, Shen Yao rubbed her forehead and shook her head, "I won't eat yet. If you have any soup, bring me a bowl."
As for food, Shen Yao has lost her appetite recently just by drinking these soups and medicines.
Forget it, soup is more nutritious. I have endured these days and it was not easy for me to push forward this situation. I have to try my best to maintain it for the sake of my personality.
Qiuyue answered yes carefully, turned around and brought a bowl of delicious soup.
All the ingredients used are nutritious and all of them are top quality.
Many of these were orders issued by the emperor himself, and ordinary people could not enjoy this treatment.
Of course, most people don’t really want the treatment that Shen Yao received after having a miscarriage.
……
"If this is the only possible outcome of a miscarriage, then I would rather not have gotten pregnant at all."
"Tsk, even though you said that, I don't believe you don't envy the one in Weiyang Palace?"
"How can we not envy her? But how can we envy Concubine Xi? She has been in the palace for several years and has long given up on this idea."
"Everyone is like this. It's better to live a plain life like us than to be with that guy in Changle Palace. He lost everything and became a madman."
"Alas, everything is determined by fate, and no one has any control over it..."
There is constant turmoil inside and outside the palace, and there is only so much that people can do.
To put it bluntly, you still have to try to adapt, just like the mountain standing in the distance.
If the mountain does not come to me, then I will go to the mountain.
On the tenth day of Shen Yao's confinement, Concubine Sun of Changle Palace suddenly died.
When the body was found, it was already stiff and a white silk thread was hung on the beam of the hall, which scared the palace maid who came to deliver the meal in the morning half to death.
Because she was buried as a concubine, the entire funeral ceremony was extremely simple.
Even during this period, except for a few minor nobles and maids in Changle Palace, no one else was present.
On the eighteenth day of Shen Yao's confinement and the day after Sun Churuo's seventh day after death, the emperor suddenly took action in the court and arrested the entire Sun family and imprisoned them.
Just like following a vine, the Sun family is the vine that is not very thick but long enough.
There were quite a lot of melons growing on the vines. If you picked them up one by one, you could fill up the entire prison in the capital.
Xiao Yanchen once again showed his cold-blooded face, just like when he dealt with the Zheng family that year. This time, he was even more ruthless.
The entire Sun family was either killed or exiled, and other families also suffered more or less serious damage.
That’s not all. Just as the ministers were trembling in fear, they watched the emperor show his might.
Xiao Yanchen suddenly stopped and announced the cancellation of this year's draft.
Before, canceling the draft was to prevent forces outside the palace from dividing up the benefits. Those court officials who were related to them would definitely write crazy letters to ask Xiao Yanchen to revoke his decision, and they would also take the opportunity to ask the emperor to expand the draft and open the door to certain families outside the palace.
Right now, everyone is as honest as a quail and dares not say anything.
There are even those lackeys who would shout that the emperor's move is wise and that it should be so.
This smooth change in attitude was entirely due to Xiao Yanchen's decisiveness.
Xiao Yanchen was also very satisfied with his arrangements. He had never intended to compromise with these wealthy and powerful families. The imperial power should always be above the aristocratic families.
……
Taiji Hall Study
Xiao Yanchen opened memorial after memorial and closed them expressionlessly.
During this period, because Xiao Yanchen was quite ruthless in killing, many positions became vacant in the court.
Some of the idlers or unknown people have been promoted to good positions.
Even the Shen family, who were implicated because of Shen Yao some time ago, benefited from it.
The word "from" was removed from Shen Yao's father's official rank, and it became the third rank.
Of course, it is still a position with little value.
But for the Shen family, it was still enough to make them excited.
It's not just for the third-rank official position, but also for the hidden message it brings.
If the Shen family can get promoted and make money, then Shen Yao in the palace will definitely be safe.
The family’s greatest support is still there, which is a double blessing for the Shen family.
If it weren't for the fact that holding a banquet specially for this purpose was too high-profile, the Shen family might have invited all their relatives and friends to have a great time.
"These are all memorials for the empress's appointment. Prime Minister Zhou, what do you think of this?"
Xiao Yanchen raised his eyes and looked calmly at the Right Prime Minister Zhou Qinghuai who was standing in front of him in official uniform.
As a veteran who had been in the court for a long time, Zhou Qinghuai demonstrated well what it means to survive when answering the emperor's questions.
As long as he can adapt quickly enough, he won't have to worry about being punished by the emperor.
When Zhou Ningyan died, Zhou Qinghuai was able to remain independent and clean in the government.
What's more, the court is currently unstable and power disputes are beginning to emerge.
"I believe that establishing a queen is a state matter as well as a family matter."
Zhou Qinghuai threw out a universal golden sentence, and it was as if he had never said it after he finished speaking.
After hearing this, Xiao Yanchen cursed in his heart that this person was so cunning and slippery.
Anyone can talk nonsense, but what he wants to hear right now is something meaningful.
Because this selection was not held, the noble ladies who were originally eager to become queen were directly blocked outside the palace. So what should be done with the vacant queen position in the palace?
How to arrange?!
The simplest way is to elect a new queen and the problem will be solved.
"I wonder if Prime Minister Zhou has a candidate in mind?"
Xiao Yanchen looked at the other person with a smile, which gave him a hint of a smiling tiger.
Zhou Qinghuai bowed his head and replied, "I think the Imperial Concubine Xi in the palace is the most suitable."
Regardless of offspring or background, Zhou Qinghuai understood Xiao Yanchen's thoughts after having experienced Xiao Yanchen's decisive handling of court affairs several times.
I just can't stand the idea of someone from a noble family sitting on the throne, so I might as well choose someone from a smaller family.
It just so happened that the Imperial Concubine Xi, who was said to be the most favored concubine in the palace, stood out.
Zhou Qinghuai took advantage of the situation and proposed to make Shen Yao the new queen of Dajing.
Xiao Yanchen was pleased with this, but he still couldn't express his opinion too hastily.
"I will consider this matter again. Prime Minister Zhou, please step down first."
"I am leaving now."
Next, Zhou Qinghuai tacitly mentioned the idea of establishing a queen in the court, and every time he mentioned it, he did not forget to point out the candidate Shen Yao.
After doing this many times, others also understood what Zhou Qinghuai meant.
They began to follow Zhou Qinghuai's lead and petitioned to make Shen Yao the queen.
Xiao Yanchen: ...It wasn't easy, but he finally achieved his desired goal.
"I have thought about the matter of establishing a queen for a long time. Since it is what you all said, I have no reason to object, so I agree to it."
Come on, let’s just reveal our cards and make him the queen!
