In order to eat, I signed a contract with the system

Now Concubine Jing has not doubted the Sixth Prince's background. If she continues like this, sooner or later she will doubt the Sixth Prince's background, especially when she has a son. Maybe at the beginning she just wanted to have a child, and when the child is born, she will want to give the child the best.

Human greed is endless. Lingrong would not let it go just because Concubine Jing swore that poisonous oath and she has always behaved well. After all, in the plot, didn't Concubine Jing choose to report the affair between Cui Jinxi and Su Peisheng to the emperor in order to completely keep Longyue?

Lingrong didn't care before because she was sure that Concubine Jing would not be able to find any evidence. After all, the relationship between her and Prince Guo was completely different from that between Zhen Huan and Prince Guo in the plot. They seemed to be in true love, but in fact, they didn't leave any items that could prove their love. Even the letters they sent to each other were written by Lingrong using special materials, and the words would automatically disappear over time after they were read.

But this was no longer possible. The Sixth Prince, the clear evidence, had already been born. Although Ling Rong had a way to get away with the blood test, once the Emperor had such doubts, the Sixth Prince would naturally lose his inheritance rights. After all, a young prince with questionable bloodline would not be recognized by all the ministers in the court.

After thinking about it, Lingrong decided to tell Prince Guo that Concubine Jing knew about her affair with Prince Guo and used it to threaten her to help Concubine Jing. Lingrong also expressed her fear and helplessness in the letter that the Sixth Prince's background might be discovered.

Lingrong felt that as the biological father of the Sixth Prince and the other protagonist of the affair, she should ask Prince Guo to help solve such troubles. Even if he couldn't do it, his mother, Concubine Shu, would surely not let go of Concubine Jing, who might destroy her dream, after finding out.

The last day of the first lunar month was the day when Lingrong came out of confinement after childbirth, and it was also the day when the Sixth Prince was one month old. The Emperor attached great importance to the Sixth Prince, and issued an imperial decree early in the morning to give the Sixth Prince the name Hongche. Lingrong really thought it was interesting, as this name really sounded like a combination of the names of the two sons of Prince Guo in the plot, Hongzhan and Yuanche.

On the day of the full moon, the emperor came to Lingrong's palace as usual. Lingrong patiently cooperated with the emperor to chat for a few words about Hongche, and then thanked the emperor for his kindness. Then she very coldly gave the emperor the secret medicine again, took blood through an acupuncture and injected it into the machine, then slapped the emperor a few times to wake him up, and then pretended nothing happened and gave the emperor some self-entertainment.

The next morning, after seeing off the emperor, Lingrong had someone call Concubine Jing over. When Concubine Jing came, she brought a banknote with her. Lingrong took the banknote meaningfully, and then performed the same operation as last night, stunning her, pricking her with an injection, and drawing blood through the machine.

After finishing it, she woke up Concubine Jing and asked her to go back and wait for ten days. After ten days, she should come to her to get medicine. Then she should find a way to have sex with the emperor within three days. Concubine Jing didn't know what happened. She just felt like she was in a trance for a moment, and then when she woke up, she heard Lingrong say to get the medicine after ten days.

Concubine Zi Jing was so happy that she no longer thought about what had happened to her. She thanked Ling Rong repeatedly and promised again that she would never tell Ling Rong's secret to anyone.

Ling Rong didn't say anything, but emphasized: "This medicine must be kept secret, so after ten days, I will secretly feed it to you, and I won't give it to you to take yourself."

"Also, this medicine can only guarantee pregnancy, but it cannot guarantee safe childbirth or the gender of the baby. Pregnancy can be confirmed after ten days, and everything after that has nothing to do with my sister."

"If you fail to give birth to the baby this time, remember, there won't be a next time. Don't ever think of threatening me with that 'secret' again. I'm not a good person. I'm sure you understand that, okay?"

This was the first time that Concubine Jing saw Lingrong with such a mysterious and dark expression. She had always thought that Lingrong was a rebellious person who didn't like to interact with others. She was lucky enough to have a pretty face and some secret medicine passed down from her ancestors, which won her the favor of the emperor and led to her current status.

Now that she was facing Ling Rong's true nature, Concubine Jing finally realized how wrong she was. How could the daughter of a minor official be transformed from a small concubine to a concubine who gave birth to a prince in just one year? Was it possible that she could have done it by luck alone?

After warning Concubine Jing, Lingrong felt refreshed.

Lingrong originally did not want to treat Concubine Jing like this, perhaps because Lingrong had the "handle" on Lingrong, or perhaps because after several threats, Lingrong actually obeyed and did as she was told, allowing Concubine Jing to gradually gain the so-called "sense of control" from Lingrong. So every time she met Concubine Jing again, Lingrong could always keenly feel her contempt and disdain from Concubine Jing's expression, and this contempt and disdain was exactly what Lingrong could not tolerate the most.

Ten days later, Concubine Jing arrived on time. During these few days, Lingrong did not synthesize just one embryo, but cultivated several embryos and selected the female one from these embryos. After Concubine Jing came, Lingrong was very skilled in knocking the embryo unconscious and then waking it up. After Concubine Jing left, Lingrong destroyed the remaining embryos and washed the used utensils and recycled them into the shop to continue selling them.

Concubine Jing did have some tricks up her sleeve. She simply sent someone to the Yangxin Palace to deliver tea and snacks and successfully diverted the Emperor away from his new favorite, Concubine Chun. A month later, Concubine Jing invited the imperial physician and revealed the news that she was one month pregnant.

After receiving Lingrong's letter, Prince Guo became extremely worried. He was concerned about Lingrong's life in the palace and was also afraid that the Sixth Prince's identity would be exposed. For this reason, he was even absent-minded when he went to Qingliangtai to visit Concubine Shu.

Seeing his worried look, Concubine Shu asked, "Yunli, has anything happened to you recently? Why are you so worried?"

Prince Guo didn't want to tell Concubine Shu at first, but he couldn't resist Concubine Shu's questioning, and he was really depressed, so he finally told her.

When Concubine Shu learned that the newborn Sixth Prince of Concubine Jiao in the palace was actually her own grandson, it must be said that she was extremely surprised and frightened.

When she was a noble concubine, she wanted Prince Guo to get that position. However, due to the fact that the emperor doted on Yunli but did not care about him, Concubine Shu had to suppress her ambition and pretend to love the late emperor wholeheartedly. After all, without the late emperor's full support, without a mother's family and being the daughter of a foreign race, it would be impossible for her to help Prince Guo snatch the throne from the previous princes and nobles.

But how could Concubine Shu, who had been a favorite concubine, be willing to be a nun and stay in the temple forever without being able to go back? And Prince Guo, who was both civil and military, would not be willing to stay like he is now, in order to reduce the emperor's fear, he dared not take power and could only indulge in nature and be a rich and idle person.

After listening to Prince Guo's story about Concubine Jing in the palace possibly knowing the Sixth Prince's background, Concubine Shu pondered for a while, raised her eyes and looked at Prince Guo seriously: "Leave this matter to mother to solve, and you, Yunli, do you know what you should do now?"
