Chapter 354 Seeking Help from Rongpin
Chapter 354 Seeking Help from Rongpin
"What else is there? Please tell me clearly, Mammy."
Although she was worried about her master's stomach, she continued to speak after seeing that her master was in good condition:
“But after all, the midwives were all sent by the Ministry of Internal Affairs. I don’t think Concubine Irgen Jueluo is that capable enough to bribe all four midwives.
So she is also gambling, gambling that she will not be discovered, and the gender of the young master is the key to whether she is willing to take the risk. "
At this point, Concubine Socholo must be very clear about why Irgen Gioro is so concerned about the gender of the child. If it is a prince, she would take any risk. But if it is just a princess, it is not worth it for Irgen Gioro to take action.
"Madam, what should I do?"
"Even if the master can fight against the concubine of Irgen Jueluo alone, he cannot be perfect. Any omission will endanger your life and the life of the young master."
Concubine Suochuolo raised her eyebrows. "So Mammy wants me to ask for help? But who should I ask for help?"
"The best candidate is naturally His Majesty. Although we don't have any evidence now, the baby in your belly is His Majesty's bloodline. He will definitely not sit idly by."
"No, no." Concubine Suochuolo said firmly: "Mammy, you don't know, before... In short, I guess I am not a good person in the eyes of the emperor. I have a lot of tricks and never tell the truth. If there is no evidence, he probably won't believe me."
Now that she knew that Irgen Gioro had no good intentions, Concubine Sochorolo could no longer understand that she had been plotted against by Irgen Gioro.
"Then, the Empress Dowager?"
"No, that won't work. If she has seen through Irgen Jueluo's plan but hasn't said anything yet, it means she has other intentions and is unreliable. If not, then she will probably be like His Majesty and won't believe me."
Although Concubine Suochuolo did not know the true nature of the Grand Empress Dowager, her intuition told her that she was not reliable. The Emperor might just not trust her, but he would definitely not harm his children. However, the Grand Empress Dowager...
Nanny Zhao did not understand her master's fear of the Empress Dowager, but she could not make a decision for her master and could only think of other ways out.
She hesitated and said, "Perhaps, we can ask Rongpin for help."
"She?" Concubine Suochuolo was unwilling. She had looked down on Ma Jia before, thinking that she was just a little luckier. She was still upset because she didn't give her face.
Nanny Zhao advised: "If it's not Concubine Rong, then the only candidate left is Concubine Hui." Otherwise, would they have to go find the Queen, or a group of concubines who are not as good as Irgen Gioro?
Of course, the Empress Dowager, who was like an invisible person, was simply ignored by them.
"But Rongpin, even though she saved Huipin's child, that happened in front of His Majesty, with many people watching. There's no guarantee that she wasn't just putting on a show." Concubine Socholo was a little worried.
In the eyes of Concubine Suochuolo, all women in the palace were competitors, and it would be foolish not to harm others, let alone save other people's children. Judging others by herself, she did not think that Ma Jia was sincere.
"Master, why should we worry about whether Rongpin is sincere? After all, she was the one who said that, wasn't she? Since she doesn't want to see the heir to the throne get hurt, then whether she loves the heir or has other intentions, she will help protect the young master.
Otherwise, if His Majesty knows that we asked her for help and Rongpin ignored us... Having a good reputation in the palace is not always a good thing. It often becomes a burden. Once the reputation does not live up to the reality, it will backfire."
"Madam, your idea is too good, but, haven't you ever thought that Rongpin would pretend to be submissive, agreeing to protect me on the surface, but secretly using others to get rid of me and the child."
"Of course I have thought about this, so why don't we find the two concubines Rong and Hui at the same time, so that the two can check and supervise each other."
"I am afraid that in order to eliminate future competitors in advance, the two will not only not check and balance each other, but will collude with each other. One Irgen Jueluo is enough to make me anxious, how can I cope with two more concubines?"
In fact, Nanny Zhao also understood that her idea had many loopholes. It was equivalent to handing the lives of the master and the young master into the hands of others. Life and death all depended on the thoughts of Concubine Rong and Concubine Hui.
But, is there any other way?
In fact, the safest thing to do is to seek the protection of His Majesty. Anything like there is no evidence and that he will not believe it is just an excuse. Since this is related to the royal heir, how could His Majesty not take it seriously? Even if he is sure that it is his master who is causing trouble, he will not sit idly by.
It's just that the master is unwilling to take the risk. After all, although Concubine Irgen Jueluo is targeting the young master, no one knows whether she has already done it.
If, by some chance, the lady gave birth safely and Concubine Irgen Juelu did not take any action, then even if she was not charged with deceiving the emperor, she would be completely out of favor.
It all depends on what the master wants. Unfortunately, the master obviously does not have the determination to cut off his own arm. He wants to save the child, but is unwilling to risk everything he has. So other than letting the young master take risks, what else can he do?
This is how it is in the palace. Even if one has great skills, one may not be able to rest easy. For those who are unable to protect themselves, every step they take is like walking on the edge of a knife, with a bottomless cliff below.
Zhao Mama felt a little regretful. She shouldn't have spoken, but now that things had come to this, she couldn't turn back. She could only bite the bullet and persuade:
"Master, we really don't have much time. You will give birth in more than two months. Time is so tight, and I am incompetent. I can't guarantee that there is no danger around you.
It's fine for the ones in our own palace, but I really can't help the midwives sent by the Ministry of Internal Affairs."
Zhao Mama almost said, "It's time to get to this point, what else do you want?" This is not okay, that is not okay, you really have no idea of your own abilities and situation.
If only, if only the master could wake up earlier and guard against Irgen Juelu concubine, why would they be so passive?
The evil ambition of Yiergen Jueluo concubine did not just appear today. Before she came, the people around the master were also aware of her malicious intentions. But no matter what, the master did not believe it.
But it’s not that the master trusts Concubine Irgen Juelu so much, but he has that mysterious self-confidence and believes that Concubine Irgen Juelu will rely on him and dare not do anything to him.
Concubine Sochorolo heard the complaints in Nanny Zhao's words, as well as the signs that she was ready to quit her job. This was not acceptable. The situation was already difficult, and if she didn't have a helper, she and her child would be in even greater danger.
