Chapter 6: Confidence
Forced to Ascend the Throne after Transmigrating
Even the two maids and Su Xin were shocked by this sudden change.
The nanny was horrified and subconsciously looked around. Seeing that there was no one around, she breathed a sigh of relief and then advised with a panicked look: âMadam, you must not say that!â
This world has many restrictions on women, as if women are born to be gentle and considerate, to take care of their husbands and children, and to devote their entire lives to their husbands and children to be basically qualified.
Mammy is now over 40 years old. She has been exposed to this kind of education almost every day since she was born. After a long time, she feels from the bottom of her heart that this is the right thing to do.
Others even more so.
Therefore, even though she knew that Concubine Rong was brought up in great pampering, the nanny still felt that she was too willful.
âYou are a mother now, so you canât be as willful as before.â It was because it was Madam Wei who sent them that the nanny had the courage to advise her.
Whatâs more, this is the bloodline of the emperor, extremely noble. What if someone with ulterior motives hears it?
Or if the little prince grows up in the future and someone tells him about it, wouldnât it be easy to hurt the relationship between mother and son?
Gu Shao on the side: ââ¦â
Sorry, I already heard it.
However, he was not as dissatisfied as the nanny. In his opinion, it was a problem if a woman still loved the culprit madly after going through so much hardship and being tortured for ten whole months.
Before she can be a mother, she must first be herself.
This was what Gu Shaoâs mother taught him when he was four years old. She also said that she didnât like him very much when he was just born, but later she saw that he was so cute that she gradually poured her affection on him.
Gu Shaoâs memory lasted for more than 20 years.
And this time, he has confidence in himself and will make his mother fall in love with him again!
He knew too well what kind of children people liked, and after many experiments, no elder could escape his control when they were young.
The elders all praised it when they saw it!
Itâs just that the other kids are not so happy, because every time he comes to their home as a guest, their parents will find fault with them for no reason.
Later, when the term âgreen teaâ appeared, friends automatically thought of Gu Shaoâs face.
When this guy was young, he was a walking green tea spirit with long eyelashes!
Gu Shao has always been shameless. He felt aggrieved for only a brief moment. After cheering himself up, he continued to open his big watery eyes and looked pitifully at Concubine Rong in front of him.
After hearing what the nanny said, Concubine Rong was shaken for a moment.
She thought it might really be her problemâ¦
There wonât people in this world who hate their own children!
Concubine Rong was a little at a loss, and when she turned her head, she met Gu Shaoâs eyes.
The little baby seemed to be frightened by her sudden roar, and its tiny body couldnât help but shrink a little.
His tears were about to fall, but they couldnât. Just when Concubine Rong thought he was about to burst into tears, she saw him waving his arms and shouting again.
âAhh.â
Even fear could not stop him from getting close to her.
In an instant, the usually spoiled Concubine Rong was overwhelmed by overwhelming guilt.
ââ¦Bring the child here for me to see.â
Look, Concubine Rong doesnât even use the word âthis palaceâ.
Su Xin was overjoyed and quickly placed the little prince next to Concubine Rong.
It was the first time she had such close contact with him. After looking at him for a long time, Concubine Rong couldnât help but frown and suddenly said, ââ¦Ugly thing.â
She couldnât believe that the little thing that crawled out of her belly could be so ugly.
âLike a little monkey.â
âCould it have been replaced secretly?â
ââ¦â After only a moment of stiffness, Gu Shao quickly recovered his energy.
Donât worry, mom. Itâs okay, mom!
I will look good soon!!
Seeing that she was finally willing to get close to the little prince, the nanny at the side couldnât help but burst out laughing: âNo way, all babies are born like this. The little prince is already a very good-looking child. Ordinary children are not even one-tenth as good-looking as him when they come out of their motherâs womb.â
Although this statement is a bit exaggerated, it is true.
Concubine Rong was skeptical.
Gu Shao soon couldnât resist the sleepiness and fell into a deep sleep.
Before closing his eyes, he did not forget to put his face against his motherâs face, not willing to miss any opportunity to act coquettishly.
How could Concubine Rong resist this? When she felt that fragility and softness coming towards her, she subconsciously held her breath, feeling annoyed and conflicted for a moment.
âBy the way, where is Su Yue?â Because she had taken a nap before and the little thing was making trouble nearby, Concubine Rong realized belatedly that her dowry maid was missing.
The moment the words fell, the others fell silent.
Although they knew that it was not appropriate to let the queen worry about anything after she had just given birth, but because it was a matter of life and death, Su Xin and Su Qiu immediately ignored all that and knelt down with a plop.
âPlease, my lady, save Su Yue!â
Only then did Concubine Rong realize that something had happened to Su Yue.
The ten boards from the Ministry of Internal Affairs are not that simple, especially since it is an order from His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. When Su Yue comes out, she will be skinned alive if she is not dead. If she is unlucky, her life will be ruined if she gets disabled.
Although His Royal Highness the Crown Prince punished Su Yue, he also saved her life.
Concubine Rong really didnât know what to say at this moment. She just asked the eunuchs around her to tell the servants in the Imperial Household Department to be gentler and just to show their appreciation.
Because of her family background and the fact that she just gave birth to a child, I believe the Ministry of Internal Affairs will not refuse.
âBut if thatâs the case, will His Royal Highness the Crown Prince⦠be unhappy?â Su Xin felt a little uneasy.
Concubine Rong doesnât care about this at all. She must protect the people she wants to protect.
âWhen Su Yue comes out, I will give her the jewel hairpin at the bottom of my dressing box as a reward. I will also grant her another monthâs leave and give her ten taels of silver to her parents and brothers outside the palace.â Concubine Rong never treated the people around her badly.
After hearing this, Su Xin and Su Qiu wished they were the ones who rushed out at that time.
After everything was arranged, Concubine Rong couldnât wait to ask, âWhere is the emperor? Why canât I see him?â
The Queen Mother did come before this, and after seeing that the Queen was resting and was not seriously injured, she sat for a while and then left.
The Queen made this trip out of dignity, but the Emperor never showed up from beginning to end.
I heard from the people in front that the meeting should have ended long ago.
The Emperorâ¦probably didnât come on purpose.
The nanny and the maids looked at each other, not knowing whether they should tell the truth. They were also afraid that if they told the truth, the imperial concubine would be sad.
Just at this moment, the little prince who was originally sleeping soundly suddenly moved.
Gu Shao was awakened by hunger. He found that the child really could not tolerate hunger and needed to be fed every one or two hours.
At this time, it had been more than three hours since he last ate.
Seeing the little baby in front of her gurgling as if in great pain, as weak as a little mouse as if he would die in the next second, Concubine Rong immediately panicked: âWhat happened to him?â
At this time, Concubine Rong no longer cared about whether the emperor came or not.
Even though she liked the emperor very much, she was now completely attracted by the little thing in front of her.
âThe little prince must be hungry.â Seeing this, the nanny did not panic but breathed a sigh of relief.
Soon, the entire delivery room was in chaos.
At the same time, in Chengming Palace, Emperor Jingwen was lying on the dragon bed in his pajamas, unable to fall asleep.
Itâs not that he has no feelings for the imperial concubine, but he had no choice but to treat her like this.
Emperor Jingwen felt both annoyed and enjoyed it when he thought that whenever he favored any of his concubines, the woman would become jealous and throw a tantrum at him.
Although she is arrogant and unreasonable by nature, she cannot leave himself for a moment.
I hope she wonât be too sad this time. She shed a lot of tears during the confinement period, which may hurt her eyes easilyâ¦
