Chapter 375 Suspended Death
But all of this cannot be diverted from Qi Ru's will. The Empress Dowager Qi loves her niece, but she can't be too partial and ignore the emperor's will.

What's more, everyone knows why Mrs. Qi is here.

Lu Zhan has given Empress Dowager Qi a lot of face.

Empress Dowager Qi was about to leave with Qi, who was ashamed, but Empress Shen said: "So, is it true or not that Concubine Xian is pregnant?"

Baozhu hugged her little belly, and winked mischievously at Empress Shen, "The empress guesses."

"Of course not!"

Empress Shen breathed a sigh of relief almost inaudibly.

Empress Shen was observing Zhen Baozhu, and Zhen Baozhu was also observing Empress Shen. She did not miss the slightest expression on Empress Shen's face.

Empress Shen seemed to not want her to be pregnant.

This is actually quite normal, but the problem is that Empress Shen can't get pregnant by herself, and she never thought of arranging for her own to get pregnant.

She seemed to simply not want Brother Zhan to have a child.

Zhen Baozhu felt that she had discovered a great mystery, and after Queen Shen and her party left, she told Lu Zhan about the discovery.

Lu Zhan nodded, agreeing with Zhen Baozhu's opinion.

"I have guessed this before. Shen Yue is not toward her family, and actually she is not toward me."

"Perhaps before Shen Guogong and the Regent died, I might simply have thought that Shen Yue's ultimate goal was to support the youngest son to be the Empress Dowager who listened to the government behind the curtain, but looking at it now, it is obviously not the case."

"There are other people behind Shen Yue, this other people, and it is very likely that after I have no children, there are only a few people who will have the opportunity to ascend to the throne."

Zhen Baozhu counted on her fingers, "The First Emperor only had three children, the First Emperor, the Regent, and the Deposed Prince."

"The regent is the son of Lord Shen. The late emperor has died and has no heirs, so only the deposed prince remains."

"I heard that the deposed prince lived a happy life and was imprisoned in another palace. So far, he has three sons and five daughters."

"The only pity is that these emperors and grandchildren can only be imprisoned in other palaces for the rest of their lives because of the abolition of the prince, and cannot go out for a step."

"The waste prince has seen that the world is vast. The first emperor treated this elder brother not badly. He just locked him up and used everything for the best. The waste prince favors a palace man today, and a palace man tomorrow. He just feels happy and happy." .”

"But his sons were different."

Zhen Baozhu looked at Lu Zhan eagerly, "So the person behind Shen Yue is one of the sons of the abolished prince."

Lu Zhan nodded, "I guessed the same way, my Baozhu is really smart."

Lu Zhan said again: "Empress Shen is a person with a clear mind. He knew my feelings for you before, and he was willing to sell me. He will take care of you when we are still an alliance."

"Now they are targeting us repeatedly, trying to tear us apart."

"It's because she knows how important you are to me. My child can only be born from Zhuzhu. If I don't get along with you, I won't have a child in this lifetime."

"On the other hand, I'm afraid she still wants to trick you into killing the king."

The night was warm and cool, Zhen Baozhu's hand was cold, Lu Zhan held her hand and put it on his chest, "Baozhu, why don't we play a play with the queen.

Zhen Baozhu showed doubts.

"Whatever she wants, we will follow her wishes, so as to peel off the cocoons and push out the people behind her."

Lu Zhan himself is not a procrastination person, and he doesn't want to put his energy on internal fighting forever.

He wanted to make a quick decision, and he also wanted to give Zhen Baozhu the best of everything as soon as possible.

Zhen Baozhu said: "Alright, acting is my favorite."

"Actually, I was acting just now."

Lu Zhan scratched Zhen Baozhu's little nose, "I know, my Zhuzhu is fighting for me."

Everyone is a smart person, and what the Queen Mother Qi can see, Lu Zhan can naturally see too.

He was willing to pamper her, which was also very touching.

Lu Zhan couldn't lift his eyelids, "I'm a little sleepy, let's go to bed."

Zhen Baozhu curled up in his arms, "I'll tell you one more thing, just wait a minute, the elder sister of the imperial concubine wants to go out of the palace, she asked me to tell you."

Lu Zhan said, "Okay."

On the surface, he didn't pay much attention to the harem, but among several high-ranking concubines, there were people whom he placed.

He knew pretty much the conversation between Concubine Liang Gui and Zhen Baozhu.

Marquis Liang is actually working for him now, it doesn't really matter whether Concubine Liang is in the palace or not.

If Concubine Liang Gui wants to leave, he doesn't mind letting Concubine Liang go.

Although Concubine Liang is also his concubine, he can't give the other party anything, and naturally he won't ask for the other party, and is willing to give the other party freedom.

"You let her find a request and pretend to be dead to leave the palace. I will turn a blind eye to this matter, and it will be over."

Zhen Baozhu cheerfully replied "Yes".

In the next day, Zhen Baozhu happily told Concubine Liang the news.

Concubine Liang Gui was also very happy, "But how do I fake my death? Choking to death while eating? Drowning in water?"

Zhen Baozhu said: "Although Brother Zhan promised to turn a blind eye to this matter, but after all, there are still queen mothers and empresses in the palace. It would be bad if they take advantage of this, so even though it is acting, we have to I've done the whole play."

Concubine Liang nodded, "The emperor is willing to let me out, so naturally I won't make it difficult for the emperor."

But Concubine Liang Gui is really too excited right now, she can't think of any way at all.

She looked at Zhen Baozhu, "Sister, think of a way with me."

Zhen Baozhu said: "Sister Guifei likes to cook, so just pretend to be burned to death."

"Let brother Zhan find someone who is about the same size as my sister from the death row to replace my sister."

Concubine Liang Gui said: "This method is good, but the matter of seeking death for prisoners has to be done by my sister."

Zhen Baozhu said: "This is easy to handle. I will ask Mr. Ji to help find someone. Mr. Ji is kind, and he will not refuse if he thinks about it."

Ji Jing has a very good relationship with Baozhu's eldest cousin Xie Yongfu, and has always taken good care of Zhen Baozhu these years.

When Zhen Baozhu returned to the palace, she talked to Lu Zhan about it, "Generally speaking, it's always inappropriate for concubines in the harem to summon officials from the previous court without reason. Brother Zhan might as well allow me to go out of the palace, so that I can go home too. Look at A Niang and Jiaojiao."

Lu Zhan's face turned dark immediately, "You are the one who wants to go out of the palace to meet Ji Jing."

Baozhu nodded.

"No," Lu Zhan vetoed, looking a little unhappy.

"Turn off the lights, I'm sleepy."

Lu Zhan's hand holding Zhen Baozhu was a little tight, and Zhen Baozhu thought he was really sleepy, so he didn't say much.

When Lu Zhan got up to go to bed at dawn on the second day, Zhen Baozhu woke up very early.

Lu Zhan was not used to being served and dressed by palace people, so he put on the dragon robe himself.

"It's still early, if you're still sleepy, sleep a little longer."

Zhen Baozhu opened his sleepy eyes, "Brother Zhan, I want to leave the palace."

Lu Zhan's face darkened again.

"I want to see Father and Mother, and I want to ask Mr. Ji for help, so please promise me."

Lu Zhan hugged him fiercely in his arms, and said with gritted teeth: "It's just a matter of my words to find a death row prisoner. Why do you have to ask outsiders? Is it just a display?"

Zhen Baozhu seemed to have just recovered, and nodded belatedly, "It seems to be right."

Why didn't she think of it?

Looking at the confused little look of the person in front of him, Lu Zhan couldn't laugh or cry.
