My Ferocious Tigress Wife

Chapter 959: A Wise Person

Naturally, Consort Chu could not tell what Lady Chu was thinking of her. At least, she did not seem impatient. However, the Chu family would not go against Empress Dowager Xiao because of her.

“I’m afraid that Madam Xiao will attack Wulang. Otherwise, does Second Shen think that I’m really stupid to go to her place to cause trouble? If she doesn’t disgust me, why should I disgust her? A chicken that couldn’t lay eggs would use its stomach to bully others. I’d like to see if the Second Prince will be filial to her in the future.”

“I want to see if she is filial to her or her mother.”

“I won’t mess with her and let everyone know that we don’t get along. What if she has bad intentions and attacks me, Wulang?”

“Now, everyone knows that I am not on good terms with that Xiao clan. If she dares to touch me, Wulang, then she would be afraid of shooting at the rat and would have to take care of some face, right?”

Mrs. Chu: You’re not really stupid, I am!

I’ve been bullied by you and listened to your nonsense.

She was the mother of a country. Which prince would dare to disrespect his mother? Only the children you raised might be able to do so.

It wasn’t that the children of concubines were all so useless. Those who were really motivated, knowledgeable, and talented were not like Chu Jiu.

Empress Dowager Xiao was now the number one person in the harem. So what if she was her biological mother? If the Emperor dared to be unfilial, his reputation would be ruined. Even the history books would not let him off.

Attack the Fifth Prince?

Was it worth it?

What kind of identity did he have to be attacked by the empress dowager who was sitting on the fishing platform?

It was not that she was siding with Empress Dowager Xiao, but the Fifth Prince was not valued by the Chu family and was only two years old. What competitive power did he have? Was he worth the Empress Dowager’s loss of face and the risk of offending the Chu family to do such a thing that would harm others and not benefit herself?

” Times are different now. The throne has been decided. The Empress Dowager will not act rashly. Imperial Consort…” Just put your heart in your hip.

“Don’t worry.”

Consort Chu sneered.” Back then, she dared to take the risk of breaking up with the Emperor and attack Consort He Shu. She killed two people and even killed the Empress Dowager to avenge her son. Think about it. What logic is there in this person’s madness?””

“Wulang is my son, so I have to guard against him.”

“That guy is a lunatic!”

Madam Chu repeatedly comforted Consort Chu and promised to visit the Fifth Prince again in a few days before leaving.

Before leaving the palace, he even went to Jiaofang Palace to pay his respects to Empress Dowager Xiao.

Empress Dowager Xiao treated Madam Chu and Madam Yuan with good tea and snacks. Madam Yuan was Xie Xian’s aunt. She had seen her more than once when she stayed in the Xie family. Madam Yuan had always treated her well. Empress Dowager Xiao would not offend everyone in the Chu family for Chu Jiu.

Chu Yan was here.

Moreover, this was Xie Xian’s aunt.

“It’s not that this widow doesn’t want to go forward, but the knot in Consort Chu’s heart is already deep. If we bring the Fifth Prince along, she will inevitably be suspicious. This widow also sees that the Fifth Prince is still young and doesn’t want her to lose her composure.”

“The Empress Dowager is thoughtful,” said Lady Chu Yuan with a smile.”

It wasn’t appropriate to defend Consort Chu. The two of them were already at the point where their heads were about to be hit. It would be hypocritical to say too much.

Chu Yuanshi’s attitude had indeed entered Empress Dowager Xiao’s eyes. It was not tiring to talk to smart people.

“This widow has already seen Protector Chu two days ago and understands the Chu family’s attitude. Consort Dowager, you haven’t experienced much of the world, so it’s inevitable that you’re a little small. Even the late emperor had told this widow more than once…”

“Fortunately, there are many people in the Chu family who understand.”

Lady Chu took a sip of tea. Consort Dowager was not of high birth. Although she was under the name of her mother, she had never received a proper teacher from a noble daughter. Her father was also a playboy and was not up to standard. That’s why we have today.”

Empress Dowager Xiao smiled when she heard this. It seemed that Lady Chu did not receive any good words from Consort Chu and was full of complaints.

Of course, this was also to show her attitude.

“The Fifth Prince is still young. It’s understandable that the Imperial Consort is worried about her gains and losses. However, it’s definitely wrong to offend the Empress Dowager. Our Chu family is ashamed of this…In the future, I hope the Empress Dowager will teach me more and forgive me.”

Empress Dowager Xiao nodded.”

“I’ll thank the Empress Dowager on behalf of the Chu family.”

No matter how dissatisfied she was, she had still placed Chu Taifei under the protection of the Chu family.

Empress Dowager Xiao understood and chatted a little more with Lady Chu before ordering her to be escorted out of the palace.

In the next few days, Imperial Consort Chu summoned imperial physicians into the palace every day to take her pulse. She used all the imperial physicians she was familiar with when she was pregnant and had children. As expected, Chu Yuanshi entered the palace within three to five days. The Fifth Prince’s illness lasted for half a month before he was fully recovered.

Consort Chu was on guard day and night. The palace was guarded like an iron bucket. She had even personally tasted all the medicine given to the Fifth Prince. Only when the Fifth Prince recovered did she heave a sigh of relief. Then, she fell ill.

She lay in bed for another six or seven days, and the nanny who took care of the Fifth Prince caught a cold again, which infected the Fifth Prince.

In a fit of anger, Imperial Consort Chu chased Nanny out of the palace, suspecting that Empress Dowager Xiao had done something. However, she did not dare to go to the Jiaofang Palace to cause a ruckus. If Empress Dowager Xiao hit her again, she was afraid that her delicate body would not be able to take it and she would collapse. No one would take care of the Fifth Prince anymore.

She was filled with hatred and grievance. She cried all day long until her eyes were damaged.

###

Xie Wan gave birth to a son on the tenth day of the first month. His name was Zhuge Xuan.

Zhuge Fu had sent someone from afar to send this name back.

In fact, before Zhuge Fuji was born, Zhuge Fu had already sent a letter to his family in Jiankang City. He had already decided on the names of his grandchildren. It was just that there was a lot of war at that time. By the time Zhuge Shu received the letter, Zhuge Fuji had already been born. She was already six months old, so the names had already been decided.

Fortunately, there were still some names that he could use. Otherwise, when Zhuge Fu came back, he really wouldn’t be able to explain himself.

It was just a letter with the names of three young ladies and three young men. Zhuge Shu didn’t know what his father was thinking. How many years did he want to leave? He left the names of his six grandchildren. Did he mean that he would never see them again in this lifetime?

Ever since Zhuge Fu left Jiankang, Zhuge Shu had only received two letters from his father.

One was to name his grandson, and the other was a letter of good news from two years ago…Zhuge Shu had a brother, and the ninth princess of Rouran gave birth to a son for her father. His name was Shen Lang.

Zhuge Shu had mixed feelings in his heart. It was not that he was jealous of his father marrying a stepmother and giving birth to a younger brother, but that he missed him a lot. After a long time, his father had also entered his forties. If it wasn’t because of the Rouran Ninth Princess’s underhanded methods, how harmonious would it have been for him to reunite with his father’s family?

Unfortunately, Zhuge Fu had left Jiankang and traveled around as he had said. He had no fixed residence, so Zhuge Shu could not contact him even if he wanted to. Daliang had not been peaceful in recent years, and letters were hard to send.

Zhuge Shu was happy that he had a son and a daughter, but he couldn’t help but feel lonely when he thought of his father.

No one would have expected that on the day Zhuge Shu was holding his son’s one-month-old banquet, Zhuge Fu would quietly return to Jiankang with the Ninth Princess of Rouran.
