Chapter 172 Fucha Family
"Suo Duo Luo lowered her head slightly and said, 'The Empress Ding has passed away, and I am deeply saddened. Although it is against the rules, I would like to ask for grace from the Empress.'"
"Let this concubine take a look at Xin'er's only bloodline left in this world. Although her words showed reluctance to let Dingpin go, An Lingrong still found it strange!"
"She didn't hear any sadness in Luo's voice, but since she was already here, there was no reason to stop her from seeing the princess!"
"An Lingrong nodded and loosened her arms around the princess. The princess has fallen asleep now, so it might be difficult to hold her. Madam, please come forward."
"After hearing this, Suo Diao Luo's face immediately showed joy. Your Majesty is so merciful. I thank you so much!!"
"After saying that, Suotiao Luo stood up and walked over, which immediately made An Lingrong frown. She subconsciously hugged the swaddling clothes in her hands tighter and asked with a frown: I wonder what kind of perfume Madam used, why does it smell so pungent?"
"Suo Luo smiled awkwardly, and said, 'Your Majesty, I'll atone for your sins. It's just some ordinary incense!' She said that, but she didn't mean to back down at all."
"An Lingrong leaned back. Madam, please don't be offended. I am allergic to perfume powder. Please step back two steps!"
"I will put the princess on the couch, and Madam can just take a look from a distance!" An Lingrong said this, and Luo Shi could no longer maintain the smile on her face.
"Madam Shupin, this......"
"An Lingrong didn't intend to let the other party speak. After hearing this, she raised her hand and said, Madam, there is no need to say more."
"He placed the princess on the couch, opened the swaddling clothes and indicated to take it away. Luo looked at it from a distance, and then immediately put the swaddling clothes back on."
"I feel a little unwell all of a sudden, so I'm afraid I can't keep you here to talk. If you don't have anything else to do, why don't you just stay here today?"
"After asking for Luo's money, she dared not do anything dirty with An Lingrong. She endured it again and again, and finally knelt down. Yes, in this case, I will not waste Madam Shupin's time."
"If you have the chance, please come to the palace another day to pay your respects to Her Majesty. I will take my leave and Qiufang will see Madam Fucha off for me."
"An Lingrong looked up at Qiufang and saw her nod imperceptibly before she knelt down and said, 'Yes!' As she watched Luo leave, An Lingrong waved the handkerchief in her hand."
There was a strange look on his face, "Qinglingxiang"!
"After a short while, An Lingrong finally identified the pungent smell on the other person. What on earth was it! Although the name has the word "fragrant" in it, the smell is particularly unpleasant!"
"Qinglingxiang itself is harmless, but if it is mixed with Shimengsan, its smell will be greatly weakened and it will also bring harm."
If people smell it, they will not be able to sleep at night, and even if they fall asleep, they may have nightmares, not to mention that the little princess is already weak.
"If you can't sleep for a few more days, it's hard to say whether the princess can save her life. Life will be difficult for her."
"An Lingrong was thinking these things in her mind, her brows furrowed tightly. Suo Diao Luo is the princess's grandmother and Dingpin's biological mother, why would she want to harm the princess?"
"Or is all this just my guess? An Lingrong is unsure and naturally doesn't want to take risks, so she desperately wants to get rid of Luo and leave."
"Outside the gate of Yanxi Palace, Qiufang received a signal from An Lingrong. Now let alone the things for Yanxi Palace, even if they are openly for the princess, they should all be taken and sent to Suo Diao Luo intact."
"Madam, my queen said that the little princess' daily food and clothing will be arranged by the Ministry of Internal Affairs, so you don't have to spend any money. Please take these things you brought back with you."
Suo Diao Luo was stunned again after hearing this, "Aunt Qiufang, what are you talking about? It's just something for the child, can it cost a lot of money? The little princess is the daughter of Concubine Ding, and it's only natural for me, Fu Cha, to give her some gifts."
"Qiu Fang knelt respectfully after hearing this. Madam, I understand what you said. But there must be some reason for your order. Please don't refuse."
"Seeing Qiufang's determined expression, Suotiao Luo couldn't think of anything to say for a moment, so she could only nod in confusion. In this case, I will obey your orders!"
"Qiufang raised her hand and said with a smile, 'Madam, take care!' After saying that, she took Luo's money and turned to leave. Qiufang immediately signaled Yangui to go back and quietly followed him."
"The palace road is long, but it has an end. There are many palace maids and eunuchs coming and going. Luo Shi will naturally not speak nonsense."
"The master and servant did not leave the palace immediately. Instead, they turned and headed towards the Imperial Garden. As they walked, fewer and fewer people followed them. In the end, only Luo and the maid who had just entered the Yanxi Palace with her were left!"
"The two of them stopped in a secluded place. A trace of helplessness and resentment flashed across Suo Diao Luo's face. She didn't expect that this Concubine Shu was so cautious that she couldn't even touch the princess."
Madam, if this cannot be done, then the second young lady...
"After hearing this, Suo Diao Luo sighed. She could only blame Yue Xin for being useless. She was persecuted by others as soon as she became pregnant, and now she passed away right after giving birth to the princess."
"But what if she is buried according to the rules of a concubine? Isn't she still a concubine? What help can it bring to the family?"
"If she wasn't useless, why would I bother to trade with others to compete for the opportunity to let Ning Xin enter the palace. Having said this, Luo paused, turned around and looked around. There happened to be a few rockery here, which was quite hidden."
"Biyu, tell me, Concubine Shu was fine at first, why did her attitude suddenly change? Did she discover something?"
"Biyu's face changed slightly after hearing this, but she still spoke hesitantly; Madam, this method is hidden, and others have never heard of it. Shupin is of low status, so it is unlikely that she would know it by chance..."
Having said that, I still find it odd...
Suo Tuo Luo paused again and asked, "When will they come?"
"Biyu also looked around. Madam must be coming soon. Let's wait a little longer!"
"Suo Duo Luo said with a cold look in his face, lowering his voice. I don't know how they will blame me when they find out that this matter has not been accomplished."
"After saying that, before Biyu could open her mouth, a voice suddenly sounded behind the two of them, Madam Fucha." Suoduo Luo's body shuddered, a flattering smile quickly gathered on her face, and she quickly turned to look at the person who came, "Aunt is here."
"Madam, you are too polite. I wonder how you are doing with what the queen asked you to do?"
"I smiled awkwardly at Luo's face. Concubine Shu is cautious. I really have no way to get close to the princess."...
"The man's face changed. So, the matter was not accomplished?"
"When Suo Diao Luo saw the change in the visitor's face, she became even more nervous. Aunt, please don't be surprised. It was because Concubine Shu didn't let me get close to the princess. Even when I looked at her, I only looked at her from a distance, so this is..."
"Madam, you should still remember what you promised the Queen? Now that things have not been done, why should the Queen bother to make plans for the Second Miss of your family?"
"Yes, yes, yes! Aunt is right, but Concubine Shu does not allow it, and I really have no choice. Please, aunt, say a few good words for me in front of the queen."
"As he spoke, he took the bulging purse from Luo's hand and handed it over. The visitor did not refuse and took the purse without hesitation."
He added, "After all, she is the princess's biological grandmother. How could she not even have the chance to hold the child? Since it is unsuccessful today, please bring a sign to the palace in two days."
"Even though Shupin is cautious, she can't refuse Madam again and again. After all, if the news of not allowing the princess to get close to her maternal family gets out, it won't sound good."
"I didn't really want to agree to the Luo family's request, but when I thought about the clan's plan, I could only nod my head silently and agreed."
"But after a moment, he spoke again: Aunt, I have an idea, but I don't know if I should tell it or not? The visitor looked at Suo Diao Luo coldly, Madam, please speak."
"A trace of calculating joy flashed in Suo Duo Luo's eyes. Aunt, I am an outsider after all. It is not easy for me to enter the palace once in a day, not to mention that Concubine Ding has passed away."
"It is even harder to find a reason to enter the palace. Why not ask Your Majesty to show mercy and let my Ning Xin enter the palace first! Ning Xin is the younger sister of Concubine Ding. It is normal for her to want to get close to her sister's daughter after entering the palace."
"This way, it will be easier to get close to Concubine Shu and gain her trust. It will also be easier and more convenient to do things."
After saying that, Suotuo glanced at the other party secretly and asked, "Aunt, what do you think?"
"Humph! That person's tone was somewhat sarcastic. Madam Fucha hasn't done anything yet, but she wants to get the benefits first?"
"Seeing that person's face turned cold, Suotuo Luo felt a little dissatisfied. Even if she was the Queen's person in the palace, so what? After all, she was just a slave. She didn't know her own identity."
"Now you are putting on airs in front of me? Thinking of this, Suo Diao Luo's face subconsciously turned unhappy."
"But then I thought, I need help from others now. Even if Soro Luo is unhappy, I can only hide it and never show it again."
Suotuo rolled up her sleeves and spoke again, "Aunt, you are joking. How could I have such thoughts? I just want to help the queen get things done."
"It is a deal that my queen has made with you to not let the little princess get well in Yanxi Palace. If this is done, your second daughter of the Fucha clan will have the possibility to enter the palace. If this fails, there is no need to discuss anything else."
"Speaking of this, the man sneered. It's been less than half a month since Concubine Ding passed away. You are so anxious to let the second young lady enter the palace to accompany the emperor. Aren't you afraid that it will get out and make the whole capital laugh?"
"How can your second daughter gain a foothold in the palace? The harem is not as simple as Madam imagines."
"After hearing this, Suotiao Luo's face turned very ugly. She knew very well that what the other party said was true! The fact that her eldest daughter was selected made the whole family very happy for a long time."
"Entering the palace is naturally a good thing. Moreover, since my daughter was made a concubine and is pregnant, my master has had a much better time in the officialdom than before!"
"I don't want my daughter to give birth to a princess, not just a princess. A dead person can't bring any help to the family."
"After all, although they share the same surname, Fucha, their Fucha is incomparable to the Maqi family. The so-called imperial favor and smooth career in officialdom are only due to their daughter's favor in the harem, which has enabled them to enjoy glory for a few times."
"But such a good life ended up like this after just a few days! Now life has become difficult, so naturally I want to send another daughter to the palace as soon as possible."
"In the hope of gaining the emperor's favor and living a good life at home for a few more days! At this moment, Suotiao Luo's face was extremely ugly due to the other party's barrage of words."
"I'm not confident enough to argue with the other party! I can only curl my lips and say, Auntie is right, I was just thinking too simple, please don't blame me!"
"Madam, you are too polite. I don't deserve it. Do you have anything else to say?" Mrs. Luo waved her hands repeatedly, no, no!"
"Your Highness cannot leave your aunt by her side, so I will not waste your time. Please take your time! In that case, I will take my leave first."
"After saying that, he turned and left. A moment later, only Luo's master and servant were left behind the rockery."
"She threw her handkerchief in anger, and took away Luo's handkerchief and angrily scolded him, saying, "You are just a servant, and you dare to talk to me like this? You really don't know what you are talking about."
Biyu was so frightened that her face turned pale. Madam, are you in the palace...
"The anger on Luo's face disappeared, and she threw her handkerchief in dismay. Forget it, go back early, and submit a sign to the palace in two days!"
"After the two left, a figure flashed behind the rockery. A young eunuch who was unfamiliar with the man looked in the direction the two had left with a startled look, then turned around and left in a hurry."

Suo Diao Luo followed the rules and went to pay her respects to Yixiu before leaving the palace!
Gyeongin Palace
Jianqiu poured more tea for Yixiu and said, "Your Majesty, Madam Fucha has left the palace!"
"She took the teacup and took a sip. I heard that she went to the Yanxi Palace in addition to the Qixiang Palace? Yes, she must want to see the little princess left behind by Concubine Ding!"
"Jianqiu responded, but was puzzled. She just didn't know why Madam Fucha entered the Yanxi Palace and left in a hurry within half a cup of tea."
Even the things that were originally intended to be sent to the Yanx Palace were delivered intact by Qiufang, who was beside Concubine Shu.
"This statement actually attracted Yixiu's attention. She raised her eyebrows and asked, "What do you mean? Did you take away all the things given to the little princess?"
"Yes! Our people cannot get into the Yanxi Palace, but Qiufang returned the things outside the Yanxi Palace. The eunuch saw it clearly. There was really nothing left."
"Although the Fucha clan that Dingpin belongs to is only a collateral branch, it is still a Fucha clan after all. Suo Diao Luo is the mistress of the family and the biological grandmother of the little princess. It is puzzling that Shupin is like this."
"Yixiu's armor scraped twice on the table. This is strange, but the little princess is the only bloodline left by Dingpin after all. I believe that the Fucha family will not leave her to Shupin so easily and let people keep an eye on her!"!
"Yes, don't worry, Madam. We are all under observation! Hmm, how is Sui Yuxuan?"
"Your Majesty, Concubine Wan is not in good health. The Emperor has even issued an order to have Wen Shichu stay at Suiyuxuan every day so that he can diagnose Concubine Wan's pulse at any time. I'm afraid this time...it will be difficult!"
"Jianqiu's voice was somewhat helpless. Zhen Huan had a miscarriage before, and this time she is pregnant again, which naturally makes the emperor feel more urgent!"
"Not only did she order Wen Shichu to guard Sui Yu Xuan, she also asked Su Peisheng to personally select two people to serve in Sui Yu Xuan. With this, the Queen's people really couldn't get involved at all, and Zhen Huan's baby was raised better and better."
"And the death of Concubine Chun also made Yixiu realize that Zhen Huan was not as easy to deal with as she appeared to be. So for a while, even though she hated the fact that this woman who looked 50% like Rouhuan was pregnant."
"But when it comes to abortion, I am powerless. Jianqiu's words obviously made Yixiu very unhappy. She pursed her lips tightly and shook her head after a long silence."
"Okay, you are so cautious. I want to see what Concubine Wan can give birth to! If she wants to give birth, let her give birth. Withdraw those people. There is no need to guard them anymore, lest they be discovered by others and cause unnecessary trouble."
"Yi Xiu's voice was cold, and Jian Qiu felt cold inside. Yes! Madam, I will make the arrangements."
Jianqiu bent her knees and was about to turn around and leave, but Yixiu seemed to suddenly remember something and spoke again: Wait!
"Your Majesty? How many months is Lady Wan pregnant?"
"Jianqiu calculated silently in her mind after hearing this, and after a moment she said, 'Your Majesty, Concubine Wan became pregnant after coming to the garden. It's almost November now, and Concubine Wan is about four months pregnant!'"
"Four months? The fetus seems stable. If that's the case, we can prepare a midwife for Lady Wan early. Who is responsible for these things?"
"Your Majesty, midwives are usually provided by the Ministry of Internal Affairs. I will prepare and find a few experienced midwives for Lady Wan, who will ensure that Lady Wan has a safe delivery."
Well! Do it secretly, don't let people have any handles! Don't worry, Madam, I understand!

"Empress"! In the Yanxi Palace
"An Lingrong was wiping Hongzhao's hand after chewing it, when Yangui walked in with an angry look on his face. I'm afraid that the matter of taking away Luo's family will have a result!"
"An Lingrong signaled the nurse to take the child away, and then she responded, "Tell me! What did you find out?" Yan Gui calmed down and said in a deep voice, "This Madam Fucha really has no good intentions!"
"She left our place and actually went to the Imperial Garden to meet someone. The eunuch I arranged heard it all. She came here today with the intention of making the princess uncomfortable."
"Yan Gui is quite eloquent, and he quickly recounted everything that happened in the Imperial Garden. However, An Lingrong was puzzled by what she heard. He wanted to harm the princess, but he didn't want her life."
