Chapter 300 301: About to give birth
Song Yunzhao felt that he could not expect Feng Yi to come back quickly. The world in the book has its own set of rules. Judging from her journey, many things that happened to her were indeed inexplicable. They had nothing to do with her. In the end, she was the one who was unlucky.
She has always wanted to eat other people's melons, but she has been on the road to being eaten by others.
How hopeless it is.
This time, she felt that according to the law of male protagonists, it is likely that Feng Yi will not be able to come back in time.
It is better to count on yourself than to count on him.
Song Yunzhao is a person who does what he says, and there are only two people in this palace who can compete with the Queen Mother, one is Concubine Shu and the other is Concubine Wan.
Concubine Wan doesn't have a good relationship with her, so she still has to count on Concubine Shu.
So, Song Yunzhao wrote a letter to the eldest lady, mainly to inquire about the recent movement of the right minister's family, to see if there is any interest that can be exchanged.
The eldest lady replied Yun Zhao was a little disappointed. The right minister has been very honest recently, and she didn't get involved in any right and wrong, and she didn't have room to play.
Since this is the case, they can only talk to Concubine Shu directly to negotiate terms.
Song Yunzhao was inconvenient to go out with his stomach full, so he had to let Nanny Yu go and invite Concubine Shu to Wangyou Palace.
Concubine Shu came on the second day. When she came to Wangyou Palace, she looked at Song Yunzhao's complexion, raised her eyebrows and said, "It seems that Song Zhaoyi's complexion is not bad."
Song Yunzhao asked Concubine Shu to sit down, and then said with a smile: "Miss Lao, I'm thinking about it."
Concubine Shu: …
Song Yunzhao smiled at her like this, always felt that it was not a good thing.
Concubine Shu has suffered a lot from her hands, so she can't help being a little more vigilant, "What's the matter with Song Zhaoyi asking me to come?"
It's better not to go around in circles, it's her who suffers from going around.
Song Yunzhao glanced at Concubine Shu, and said very sincerely: "It is reasonable to say that I need to ask for help from others. I should go to Zhaoyu Palace in person, but now I am really inconvenient. I can only ask my mother to come over. If I am impolite, please forgive me."
Concubine Shu sat up straight subconsciously, looked at Song Yunzhao and said, "It's all trivial, Song Zhaoyi doesn't need to take it to heart, you should say there is something wrong."
"Since that's the case, the concubine will speak up." Song Yunzhao stopped speaking politely, and looked at Concubine Shu with a serious expression, "The emperor told me that he would be back in a month, but seeing that the date is approaching, but there is no news, I am very worried."
Concubine Shu: …
Good mood.
No one knew about the news of the emperor's Weifu, but Song Yunzhao was informed in advance by the emperor, and even told her the return date.
Seeing Concubine Shu's subtle expression, Song Yunzhao sighed slightly, "I am in a gradual confinement period, and the emperor is worried about the child in my womb. Now I am also worried that the emperor will not return as scheduled, but I will give birth."
Concubine Shu understood that Song Yunzhao was worried that someone would harm her when she gave birth.
Also, the emperor is not here, the queen mother is the biggest in the harem, if the queen mother really does something, what can she do as a person who has entered the delivery room?
That's the meat on the cutting board.
This risk is too great. If Concubine Shu really fights with the Queen Mother, she is afraid that she will not be able to hold on.
She has no favor, no heirs and only one concubine, so she really doesn't have much confidence.
"If Empress Concubine Shu can help me this time, I will definitely ask for credit for your majesty when your majesty comes back, and this time I owe her a favor. In the future, empress will ask me for something, as long as I can help, I will never refuse."
Pray for her in front of the emperor?
Concubine Shu was a little tempted.
Song Yunzhao owes her a favor?
Concubine Shu was very tempted. After all, Song Yunzhao's previous idea had saved her father from several dangers. This kind of favor still has a lot of weight.
Concubine Shu knew that Song Yunzhao was very cunning, so she was able to promise such two conditions, it seemed that she was really worried about her safety.
Thinking of this, Concubine Shu suddenly said, "Aren't you afraid that I have bad thoughts about you?"
Song Yunzhao smiled slightly, "Even though your empress has a bit of a temper, she has always been a reasonable person. There is no conflict of interest between me and my empress, and there have been several successful cooperations. I don't think your empress will do such a thing. It is not good for you. After all, I am the emperor's first child in my womb. If something happens to our mother and son, the emperor will definitely seek justice for me. Your empress should not be willing to take risks."
Concubine Shu thought that it was rare that Song Yunzhao had good eyesight, so she snorted and said, "I'm too lazy to plot against you, and it's no good to bother."
"Your Majesty said so."
Concubine Shu got up, "There is a saying before, this harem is not my word, I can only promise you to do my best."
"Your Majesty must try her best, and my concubine is already grateful." Song Yunzhao said.
Concubine Shu nodded and left.
Song Yunzhao breathed a sigh of relief. She knew that Concubine Shu would not refuse, but she didn't expect that Concubine Shu had no other conditions. She was ready to be plucked by Concubine Shu, but she just left.
She's so cute, she doesn't cheat people at all, no wonder she was eliminated by the heroine in the book.
There are no absolute good people or bad people in this world, it’s mainly because of differences in standpoints.
As the delivery date is approaching, not to mention Feng Yunjin and others who come to visit every other day, even the Imperial Hospital has sent a female doctor to take care of her almost personally. They have to check the fetal position every day, which makes Yun Zhao also nervous.
It was the first time in two lifetimes that she gave birth to a child, Feng Yi was still not around, and there were still two big holes in the harem, the Queen Mother and Qin Xiyue.
Qin Xiyue knew that she and Song Yunzhao were not the same kind of people, so she didn't come here to be annoying. The queen mother also didn't care about Song Yunzhao, as if she didn't care about the child in Yunzhao's belly.
This caused the people in the harem to have a divided attitude towards Wangyou Palace. The concubines who had no relationship with Wangyou Palace kept her at a respectful distance, and those who were closer to Yun Zhao couldn't help feeling sorry for her.
Towards the end of the month, Song Yunzhao received the first letter from the emperor, and she was slightly relieved. She knew that the emperor was surrounded by guards, but there was no letter sent back, so she was naturally worried.
After reading the letter, Song Yunzhao was silent. There was indeed a big problem in the construction of the river channel. Feng Yi was furious, so naturally he couldn't take care of her side, and she was right, the emperor's return period would be extended.
Fortunately, she made two preparations.
The emperor said that he would ask Meng Jiuchang to take care of the Wangyou Palace so that she would not have to worry, and told her that Meng Jiuchang had the token he gave him, and if something happened, he would hand it over to her.
Song Yunzhao didn't expect Feng Yi to have such an arrangement, he was taken aback for a moment, then smiled, he still had a conscience.
When the labor pains broke out, it was in the middle of the night, Yun Zhao was awakened by the pain, and Wangyou Palace immediately lit up the lights and got busy.
