My dad wants to kill me!
This thought flashed through Gu Shao’s mind quickly.
It’s not that Gu Shao suffers from paranoia, but all signs indicate that the emperor and the crown prince are the most suspicious.
You see, the current queen has no children yet. Even if she has a child, the biggest threat to her is still the crown prince, so Gu Shao has to take the back seat.
As for other concubines, those who have children haven’t even established their own children yet, so how can they start to eliminate threats?
As for those who don’t even have children, unless they are desperate, no matter how angry they are, they can only curse behind their backs.
Besides, his mother was a royal concubine after all, and ordinary people couldn’t reach here.
But if it was the crown prince, it doesn’t make sense.
If the crown prince really wanted to kill him, he would not have saved his mother. He would have just avoided that road and done nothing but watch the mother and son get into trouble.
…Gu Shao took note of this account.
While thinking, the nanny gradually recovered from her panic and became rational: “Madam, the auspicious time is almost over, let’s hold the third baptism ceremony for the little prince first.”
We can’t just keep dragging it on like this until the emperor comes.
When she noticed that she was crying, the little baby next to her seemed to feel something and looked like it was about to cry but didn’t. Concubine Rong wiped away her tears almost subconsciously.
“I’m sorry, I’m sorry. It’s mother’s fault. It’s mother’s fault.” Concubine Rong felt extremely guilty because she had caused him to start worrying about her.
Soon, order was restored in the main hall, and the baptism ceremony was carried out in an orderly manner.
Then Gu Shao saw the original owner of Shu Lan Zhai.
Zhao Chongrong originally didn’t want to come because she was afraid of causing trouble, but she couldn’t pretend to be blind, right?
Zhao Chongrong had no choice but to ask her maid to pick out a pair of bracelets and brought them to the main hall.
It was a pair of plain silver bracelets. Although they were made of plain silver, the patterns on them were extremely beautiful and had good meanings. It was obvious at first glance that they were carefully selected styles.
There are two bells on it, which jingle when shaken, and it is lively and cute.
This was a gift that Zhao Chongrong had prepared for her daughter. However, the incident happened suddenly and there was really no other gift that could be given to the child. After thinking about it, Zhao Chongrong asked the maid to take it out from the warehouse.
As a result… Concubine Rong didn’t appreciate it at all.
Concubine Rong didn’t know the inside story, she just felt that the silver bracelet was too plain, and the pattern was only popular a few years ago.
Concubine Rong has seen a lot of fine things, so ordinary things are naturally not to her liking.
Is this Zhao Chongrong trying to fool her?
However, on such a happy day, Concubine Rong was too lazy to argue with the other party.
“Alright, I understand, you can leave now.”
Noticing the indifference and undisguised contempt in Concubine Rong’s eyes, Zhao Chongrong almost crushed the handkerchief in her hand.
“…Yes, Your Majesty.”
She lowered her head, and the original expectation gradually turned into cruelty and resentment without knowing when.
“…………”
Seeing that a pair of bracelets was about to cause a bloody murder, Gu Shao hurriedly reached out his hand: “Ah, ah.”
The little baby seemed to be attracted by the bell in front of him, and his eyes were full of eagerness.
Concubine Rong was stunned. She didn’t expect that her son would be so unambitious. He was so interested in just a pair of silver bracelets.
Zhao Chongrong was also stunned. She didn’t expect that the child in front of her would like it.
For a moment, the silhouette of the little baby overlapped with that of his daughter.
In my dream, if my daughter could be born safely, she would be fair, tender and ignorant like this.
Zhao Chongrong’s dissatisfaction gradually dissipated.
Seeing this, the nanny nearby took a quick check and found nothing unusual, so she nodded to Concubine Rong. After getting Concubine Rong’s consent, the nanny gave the bracelet to the little prince in the cradle.
Unfortunately, at this time, Gu Shao was a useless person who couldn’t even hold a bracelet.
With a “click”, the bracelet fell back again.
Gu Shao: “…”
Concubine Rong couldn’t help but burst out laughing.
Zhao Chongrong’s eyes trembled slightly.
“Didn’t you say you were leaving? Why are you still standing there?”
Hearing this, Zhao Chongrong seemed to gain courage, and on impulse, she spoke: “My Lady, can I hold the little prince in my arms?”
Concubine Rong paused while teasing her son.
The maids and the others also looked at Zhao Chongrong.
The atmosphere seemed a little weird for a moment.
Just when Zhao Chongrong thought the woman would definitely refuse, who knew that Concubine Rong actually agreed.
It’s just that the tone isn’t very good.
“Be careful not to fall, or you’ll get hurt.”
As soon as the swaddling clothes fell into her hands, Zhao Chongrong had no idea what the other person was saying.
The child in my arms is so small and soft, and looks so cute.
Gu Shao originally wanted to be intimate with the lady in front of him, and he could see that the other party was not being false at the moment.
However, just as Gu Shao was about to make his move, Concubine Rong narrowed her eyes instantly.
Gu Shao got scared at that time.
The child stayed quietly in Zhao Chongrong’s arms for a while, and before Concubine Rong’s patience was about to run out, Zhao Chongrong reluctantly returned the child to her.
“Thank you, Your Majesty. I will take my leave now.”
This person must have experienced something before.
But what does this have to do with me?
In just a moment, Concubine Rong forgot about Zhao Chongrong.
After the third bathing ceremony, two days later Concubine Rong was able to walk normally again.
Other people’s palaces are definitely not as comfortable as her own. Being able to endure such a shabby environment for so long is already Concubine Rong’s limit.
As soon as she was able to get out of bed, Concubine Rong immediately asked the palace maids and eunuchs to pack up and leave.
Zhao Chongrong was the only one left. Without the baby’s occasional crying, she actually felt a little uncomfortable.
The Shu Lan Zhai seems to be even quieter than before.
Gu Shao originally didn’t understand why his mother disliked Shu Lan Zhai so much. Gu Shao felt that the environment of Shu Lan Zhai was already very good. The furniture was all made of solid wood and was new. What was so unbearable about it?
Until he came to Qiuwu Palace.
As soon as he entered the door, he was stunned by the hot air that hit him in the face.
There’s actually a ground dragon here!
Even the incense burned in the incense burner is priceless agarwood.
The walls around are painted with pepper mud, which looks warm and luxurious.
“Little thing, from today on, this is where you live.”
The side hall was prepared as early as when she became pregnant. The Ministry of Internal Affairs spent countless amounts of good materials. Now that September has passed, the flavor has almost disappeared.
If it were someone else, they would only feel delighted when seeing such a luxurious palace. However, when Concubine Rong asked the Ministry of Internal Affairs to renovate the side hall, she secretly made many people jealous.
However, Gu Shao felt as if he was facing a formidable enemy.
The palace is nice, but… the walls are painted with cinnabar!
Anyone who has been to school should know what cinnabar is.
So now the question is, how should he tell his mother?
Completely unaware, Concubine Rong was still holding her son, enthusiastically introducing the various arrangements in the room, and inhaling the poisonous gas around her.
Gu Shao: “…”
Help, help.
The other side.
Finally, Concubine Rong left. The things in the main hall needed to be taken apart and washed. The maids and eunuchs were busy for a while.
Zhao Chongrong was the mistress of a palace after all, so it was impossible for her to use things that had been used by others.
It is the same even if that person is a royal concubine.
Zhao Chongrong sat there absent-mindedly, not knowing what he was thinking about.
Soon, her thoughts were interrupted.
It turned out to be Zhao Chongrong’s personal maid, who accidentally discovered something while giving orders.
“Huh? What is this?”
She subconsciously stretched out her hand and a bright red pill appeared in her palm.
When Zhao Chongrong heard the noise, she looked over unconsciously.
