Chapter 702: The Stratagem in the Palace

Concubine Xiao held Han Shu's hand and said, "Sister, to be honest, there are countless concubines in the palace. In fact, what I admire most in my heart is you. You are beautiful, gentle and noble. Looking at the harem, no one can match your sister."

Han Shu hurriedly said, "I am ashamed of what my sister said. Who doesn't know that my sister is noble in her demeanor!"

Concubine Xiao finally said, "My sister is favored by the emperor and is gentle. My sister has been thinking recently that this harem cannot be messed up like this. For the sake of the emperor, the harem must calm down whatever it says." She looked at Han Shu and said with a sincere look: "Sister, my sister offended many people in the palace and it is difficult to control everyone, so my sister wants to... I ask to see the emperor in the past two days. After my sister gave birth to Lin'er, my sister will take charge of the harem and manage the affairs of the harem...!"

Han Shu was really surprised now, frowned, but she returned to peace in an instant.

She was extremely smart. When she heard Concubine Xiao’s words, she was surprised at first, but in an instant she guessed that this arrogant and vicious woman must have other plans. When her thoughts were changing, she had already stood up and pretended to be shocked: "Sister, this..."

Concubine Xiao also stood up and said, "What's wrong with sister?"

Han Shu shook her head and said, "My sister didn't hear what she said just now, and she didn't dare to listen to it..."

Concubine Xiao sighed, "Does sister think she is testing you?"

Han Shu said in his heart: "If you weren't a temptation, you'd really see a ghost." A look of panic appeared on his face and said repeatedly: "I dare not. But... but what my sister said, my sister really dared not think about it."

"Sister, don't be afraid." Concubine Xiao said seriously: "Sister said this sincerely. The so-called "Not just means" is not right. Although the emperor issued an order to take care of the harem, no one took it seriously for so many years. I can't accept everyone, otherwise the harem would not be as chaotic as it is today. My sister is now pregnant with a dragon seed. After giving birth to a son, the mother will not only be favored by the emperor, but the emperor in this palace will not dare to go against her sister. At that time, as her sister, she will be in charge of the harem, and no one dares to do anything wrong...!"

"Sister, don't say that." Han Shu said in panic: "I have never thought about such a thing..."

Concubine Xiao stepped forward and grabbed Han Shu's hand and said, "Today, only you and my sister are here, so there is no need to be a taboo about some words. My sister has outstanding talents, gentle temperament, and a prince above and a prince below. Even in the middle, my sister will also help her best, and she can command the harem. And... For legitimate reasons, my sister is willing to do a great favor to my sister!"

Han Shu guessed something in her heart, but pretended to be confused and said, "What does sister mean?"

Concubine Xiao looked around and confirmed that there was no one, and then whispered: "Sister, do you remember what year it was this year?"

Han Shu said: "It's been nine years of Pingguang!"

"That sister remembers, when the emperor was the crown prince, how many years has it been since the crown prince returned to heaven due to illness?" Concubine Xiao asked mysteriously.

Han Shu thought about it and then said softly: "Ten years...!"

Concubine Xiao smiled and said, "My sister has a good memory. It's been ten years since the death of the princess, and the emperor made a vow to not be granted a title for ten years. This year... has come!"

Han Shu pretended to be puzzled and said, "Sister, I don't understand very much!"

Concubine Xiao said quietly: "I have no master in the harem of Dayan, and I have been ridiculed by the world. The so-called dragon and phoenix show good fortune. My Dayan has dragons but no phoenix. There are so many gossips in the world, which has a great influence on the prestige of my Dayan royal family...!"

"The emperor is very affectionate and never forgets the crown princess. This is a very affectionate and nature act." Han Shu sighed lightly.

Concubine Xiao's eyes flashed with strange colors, but she still smiled and said, "What my sister said is, but... the ten-year period has arrived, and there must be a new master in this harem so that the harem can stabilize the harem and the country will be peaceful and peaceful. My sister has been thinking about it. In this harem, the one who has the ability to become the harem is the lord of the harem, so... my sister is willing to help her. In the past few days, she has recommended to the emperor and asked the emperor to make her the lord of the harem. After a country, the mother will be in the world...!"

After saying that, Concubine Xiao stared at Han Shu. From Han Shu's face, she saw her expected shock, and even saw Han Shu's rosy lips and couldn't speak.

After a while, Han Shucai smiled bitterly and said, "Sister has never liked to joke. Today... why did you tell this joke today? If someone else hears it, it will cause trouble."

Concubine Xiao said solemnly: "Does my sister think I'm joking?"

Han Shu frowned and said, "What my sister said today, my sister will never reveal a word. In my sister's heart, regardless of her qualifications or talent, my sister will win a hundred times better. In this harem, no one is more suitable for harem affairs than my sister."

Concubine Xiao shook her head and sighed: "I am very happy when my sister says this. But... I really shouldn't control the harem anymore... those gossips, like mountains, are so overwhelming that I can't breathe..."

Han Shu sneered in her heart, but said softly: "Those gossiping are nothing more than talking nonsense. If the name is not right...!" At this point, her voice was lowered: "If my sister becomes the queen, no one will dare to talk anymore."

Concubine Xiao's eyes flashed through the unconcealed joy, but she shook her head and said, "If it doesn't work, how can I succeed..."

"Why not?" Han Shu said calmly: "Apart from the deceased Crown Princess, my sister was the first to serve the emperor, earlier than anyone else. Moreover, over the years, my sister has been under various pressures to manage the harem in an orderly manner. Whether it is qualifications or talents, the position of the queen is the sister...!"

Concubine Xiao hurriedly said, "Sister... don't misunderstand, my sister really wants to help you..."

Han Shu had already said, "Sister, don't worry too much. What my sister said is from the heart. If you want peace in the harem, no one can take on this responsibility except my sister. I will enter the palace late. I am also a quiet person who is useless and must not have the ability to go... to sit in the position of queen..."

In the bamboo forest, the breeze caresses gently and the bamboo fragrance hits people. Two beautiful noble women are speaking in this beautiful environment, saying extremely hypocritical words.

Concubine Xiao helped Han Shu sit down again, and then sighed: "Sister, although I am determined to relieve my worries for the priest, I am just the priest..." Having said this, she looked at Han Shu, and wanted to speak but stopped, hoping that Han Shu could understand the meaning of her words.

Han Shu smiled faintly and said, "Sister, the emperor must be thinking about his sister in his heart, otherwise he would not have given the harem to his sister to take care of."

"After that being said, over the years... the Master rarely goes to Yongchun Palace... Sister, it's not easy for me to see the Master." Concubine Xiao sighed quietly: "The Master loves my sister. Whenever I have free time, I will be with you..."

Han Shu finally said: "Sister, do you need your sister to give advice in front of the saint?"

Concubine Xiao looked up and said, "What do you mean by sister?"

"Sister is willing to help me, but I really don't have the ability." Han Shu said softly: "Sister is thinking about her sister, and she must not ignore her sister. If her sister is willing, she is willing to give advice to the priest and ask the priest to make her the queen..."

Concubine Xiao waved her hand and said, "This...this is not possible. I am determined to recommend you, how can I...how can I ask my sister to recommend you in turn..."

"Sister just said that you and I are old sisters in the palace. We help each other, just to serve the emperor well." Han Shu's voice was soft: "Sister tells the truth to her sister, and she is grateful. For the long-term plan of the harem, she must give advice to the emperor."

Concubine Xiao held Han Shu's hand tightly and sighed: "I have only realized that my sister treats me sincerely for so many years." She stared at Han Shu: "If my sister really has this intention, I will not refuse. My sister swore here that if my sister can become the lord of the harem, I will definitely lead the harem with you and protect my sister's vitality..."

Han Shu sighed in her heart, if this woman really became the queen, I am afraid that the first person to be punished would be Han Shu.

At this moment, she finally fully understood that this woman came here to show her great care and was extremely intimate, just to think that she could speak for her in front of the emperor, and to peek at the throne of the queen.

Han Shu didn't know if she should call this woman so stupid.

Everyone is obviously the enemy of life and death, but they are going to come here to pretend, and they even want to use their help to ascend to the position of queen. She doesn't think about whether there is such a good person in the world?

Concubine Xiao asked about her well-being again. As she spoke, she promised Han Shu all kinds of benefits. After talking for a long time, she pointed to the jade porcelain jar and said, "Sister, don't forget to drink soup, it's a great tonic, and it's good for the fetus. The jade porcelain jar can keep warm and fresh..."

When Concubine Xiao left, Ling Yan'er came over immediately and felt relieved when she saw that Han Shu had nothing to do.

Han Shu slowly walked to the table, looked at the jade porcelain jar filled with ginseng soup, and a sneer floated on the corner of her mouth. Ling Yan'er gently opened the lid and used a silver needle to explore it, and then said softly: "There is no problem with ginseng soup!"

"She didn't come to harm me this time, she just came to beg me." Han Shu said lightly: "It's just that this woman is too ambitious, so she will harm me sooner or later...!" She paused and asked, "The Lord of the Lord should come here today, right?"

Ling Yan'er hurriedly said, "The little eunuch came over and passed the message just now, and the emperor may be here soon."

Han Shu sneered, "That's it." He waved to Ling Yan'er, whispered a few instructions, Ling Yan'er nodded and left quickly. After a moment, he came back and presented it to Han Shu with a small porcelain bottle.

Han Shu took the small porcelain bottle, opened it, and calmly poured a few drops of the juice from the porcelain bottle into the ginseng soup.

Ling Yan'er said anxiously: "Miss..."

Han Shu had already handed the small porcelain bottle to Han Shu and said lightly: "Find a place to bury it, don't let anyone find it..."

Ling Yan'er's eyes turned, as if she understood something, so she hurriedly took the small porcelain bottle and left quickly.

Han Shu then gently covered the jade porcelain jar, and it seemed that no one had ever moved. She slowly stepped onto the chair and gently stroked her bulging belly, muttering to herself: "I didn't care about you before, but in the future... I have a baby, you can't be at ease."

...

Before the sunset in the sky was set, the emperor had already arrived in Changchun. The palace back garden did not make anyone publicize it when he came, but went to the bamboo forest lightly.

At this time, I saw Han Shu lying on a chair in the bamboo forest. Although she had a body, her body was still graceful and delicate. She was covered with thin brocade silk and seemed to be asleep. Ling Yan'er drove away the butterflies that occasionally flew over.

Ling Yan'er was shocked when she saw Emperor Yan coming, and hurriedly got up and knelt down on the ground. Just as she was about to wake Han Shu, Emperor Yan waved his hand, went forward, and gently pulled Jinsi up.

Han Shu's beautiful face showed a sweet smile, as if she was still dreaming.

Emperor Yan looked around and saw the jade porcelain jar on the stone table. He looked slightly puzzled and asked softly: "Why are you drinking soup here? Don't get into the wind, which hurts Concubine Shu's body."

Ling Yan'er hurriedly explained: "Master, this is sent by the Imperial Concubine before. The Empress has not yet drunk the soup!"

When Emperor Yan heard the word "Niu Concubine", his eyes suddenly showed a sharp look. He carried his hands on his back and walked to the table. His eyes were staring at the jade porcelain jar. After a moment, he finally said in a deep voice: "Transfer to the Imperial Doctor!"
