Chapter 73 After the Marriage was Kidnapped 9
The emperor directly issued an edict that Concubine Chen was pregnant and did not need to go to the funeral.

No one really dared to say anything about this. After all, Concubine Chen was pregnant with the emperor's only child. If something happened, who would take the responsibility?

However, even if she was exempted from crying, Ning Yan would still go to report twice a day, kneel there and pretend to cry. The maid would prepare a soft cushion for her, and her skirt was wide so no one could tell she was sitting there.

Even the queen's family members did not dare to let her kneel for too long. After kneeling for about two quarters of an hour, they would find various excuses to ask her to leave. When the seven days were up, the queen's coffin was buried.

Empress Xiaoxian was probably the empress whose coffin had the shortest period of mourning in the history of Daliang State.

But no one dared to say anything. The father-in-law's family received a letter from the queen in advance and knew that she committed suicide. The suicide of a concubine would implicate her mother's family!
Moreover, the fact that the emperor only allowed the coffin to be kept for seven days showed that he already knew the truth. They were afraid of being punished by the emperor, so how could they dare to say anything more?
If the father-in-law and his family were all well behaved, the other ministers would not say anything.

The Queen's affairs passed uneventfully.

April soon arrived. Ning Yan took off her heavy palace dress and put on a light skirt. Her belly became more and more obvious. After all, she was due to give birth in a month.

Ning Yan was bored in the palace, so she came to stroll in the imperial garden.

She is now a key protected person. Whenever she travels, she is always surrounded by a large group of people, with at least a dozen palace servants serving her.

Those who wanted to get rid of the baby in her belly were dumbfounded when they saw this situation, but the baby in Concubine Chen's belly was almost nine months old, and if they didn't take action, the baby would have to be born.

So, several nails that had been planted in advance started a terrorist attack mode on Ning Yan.

Two young palace maids were cutting roses in the bushes. When Ning Yan and her group walked by, they suddenly raised their scissors and stabbed at Ning Yan. The palace servants immediately stepped forward to stop them. A fight broke out between them. The two palace maids were outnumbered and were kicked into the bushes by the palace servants. One died and the other was injured.

The emperor was so frightened when he heard the news that he left the ministers who were discussing the matter and rushed to the imperial garden. He held Ning Yan in his arms and checked her from head to toe. "Are you okay? Did they hurt you? Do you feel any discomfort in your stomach?"

Ning Yan felt that his arms were shaking as he hugged her, and hurried to comfort him, "The palace servants you arranged were very useful. They didn't let those two palace maids get close to me. Your Majesty must reward them well."

The two female secret guards arranged by the emperor did not retreat even after being stabbed in the abdomen by the scissors. They stood firmly in front of Ning Yan and later kicked the little palace maid into the rose bushes.

"Okay, reward! They will be rewarded handsomely for their service in protecting you."

The Queen Mother also rushed over after hearing the news, and was relieved to see that Ning Yan was fine.

To be honest, Concubine Chen is very obedient. She usually stays in her own palace or Mingzheng Hall and never hangs around outside.

This was the only time she went out that she encountered someone trying to knock the baby out of her belly. The person behind this was so despicable!
"Go, call the imperial physician, and have that palace maid rescued for me. I want to find out who wants to hurt my beloved granddaughter!"

The dead are dead, but the injured will never have a good life in the future.

When the palace maid was being treated by the imperial physician, some people wanted to silence her. Those people were caught by the secret guards sent by the emperor, and the mastermind behind the incident was soon found out.

"Prince Chu Rui of Prince Yong'an?" Chu Chengqian read the name, his mind in turmoil.

The secret guard found out that it was Chu Rui's concubine Ning Zhaozhao who did it. He remembered very clearly that it was this Ning Zhaozhao who knocked Yan'er unconscious and entered Chu Rui's backyard in Yan'er's place. Why would she harm Yan'er after she got what she wanted?
Is this something Prince Yong'an did?
But, who cares whether he has it or not!
Who made Ning Zhaozhao the woman of Prince Yong'an?
If one person makes a mistake, the whole family will be punished!

Soon, the Yongan Palace was surrounded. Don't say he was cruel. Because of Ning Yan's matter, he had been paying attention to the Yongan Prince.

Because Ning Zhaozhao rushed to become Chu Rui's concubine, she was despised by Chu Rui. I don't know how Ning Zhaozhao did it, but later Chu Rui changed his attitude and stayed in Ning Zhaozhao's courtyard every day. She even successfully became pregnant.

He had also heard the rumor that Ning Zhaozhao was destined to be a phoenix, and Chu Rui made her pregnant. It was probably because she was eyeing the chair under his butt, or even wanted to rebel. Otherwise, it would not make sense.

As an emperor, what he is best at is to nip danger in the bud. Once it is found out that things are as he imagined, no one in the Yong'an Palace will survive.

When Prince Yong'an found out why his family was surrounded, he just wanted to give his son a big slap in the face!

After marrying Ning Zhaozhao, such a scourge, she should be allowed to die of illness. Now that scourge has caused the emperor to be suspicious of her family. Do you really think that by killing the baby in Concubine Chen's belly, the emperor will be able to adopt Rui'er?
She should be cleaner then?
idiot!

And in Ning Zhaozhao's courtyard.

Chu Rui pulled Ning Zhaozhao's collar, and his words were filled with uncontrollable anger: "Ning Zhaozhao, who gave you the courage to harm the baby in Concubine Chen's belly? Didn't you say you could predict what would happen in the future?
Did you foresee this day?"

After saying that, he slapped Ning Zhaozhao in the face.

Ning Zhaozhao is now eight months pregnant. After being slapped, she fell to the ground, "Ah, my belly, my child!"

The maids were also panicking, "Madam Ning is bleeding, go and call the palace doctor."

Chu Rui was also a little dumbfounded. The baby in Ning Zhaozhao's belly was his first child, and it was very likely to be a son. Nothing must happen to the child!

"Quick, call the court doctor!"

Even if something happened at home, he still wanted to leave a bloodline. Although the mansion was surrounded, the mansion doctor was still there, and he rushed over quickly.

After taking the patient's pulse, he said, "Young Master, Concubine Ning is about to give birth." Moreover, it is very likely to be a difficult birth!
"We have to find a midwife quickly, otherwise Aunt Ning will be in danger."

The mansion already had a midwife, who had been in place since Ning Zhaozhao was six months pregnant. Now given the situation, Chu Rui was somewhat glad that he had acted early.

After a day and a night of tossing and turning, Ning Zhaozhao survived a near-death experience and finally gave birth to a baby boy.

The child weighed 5.12 pounds and did not cry when he was born. The midwife lifted the child's feet and slapped him. Then the child cried twice like a cat. After the palace doctor examined him, he concluded, "The little master is weak, but as long as he is taken good care of, he can still grow up."

The current situation in the Prince Yong'an's Mansion is not very good. Not to mention the newly born little prince, even the people in this mansion don't know how long they can live.
Chu Rui looked at the skinny baby in the cradle, and the joy of having a son was diluted.

Yes, so what if I have a child?
The emperor might execute the entire family at any time. How ironic!

Ning Zhaozhao has done a lot of harm to people!
