“Mother, what happened? “Why are you in such a hurry to summon me into the palace?” As he rushed over, the First Prince inquired.
“Naturally, something big happened.” After the Empress finished speaking, she waved her hand to dismiss the palace servants.
She had him sit beside her and told him about the white potatoes. “The Third Prince discovered this, and it’s another great achievement. If this continues, it’ll be bad.”
“It can’t be. Hasn’t father always been suppressing the Zhou family?” The First Prince was shocked.
“But the Emperor has not yet chosen a crown prince, and the Third Prince’s power in the court is no less than yours.
“He is to be your most powerful opponent; you can’t let him go on like this.”
The First Prince nodded his head in agreement. It would be detrimental to him if the Zhou family regained their position in the court.
“Mother,” he asked, “you just said that the person who found the white potato was Gu Chengrui, right?”
“Yes, it’s the third son of Ping Yang’s family. If I remember correctly, he was the one who invented the waterwheel last time, but we repressed it and pushed it onto someone else’s.
“Why don’t you send someone to investigate him? If there’s anything good, then snatch it. If not…” When the empress said this, she made the gesture of touching her neck.
The First Prince narrowed his eyes and said, “Indeed, the Gu family used to support my fourth brother with Princess Ping Yang, but now Gu Chengrui has sided with my third brother.
“If he isn’t useful to us, then we can’t keep him.”
“Yup, you have to think carefully about arranging the people going over. Last time, the seventh son of the Su family suffered a great loss at the hands of the Third Prince. We can’t follow in his footsteps.”
“I understand. I’ll get back to my work then. I’ll come over to have dinner with you tonight, as I want to taste the sweet potatoes that father has been praising to the heavens.”
“You only know how to take advantage of your mother.” The Empress scoffed jokingly.
“Remember to bring Yanran along,” she said. “She hasn’t come to the palace to pay her respects in a long time.”
When the First Prince heard her mention his wife, his expression immediately became impatient. However, he also knew they still had to rely on the Prime Minister’s power, so he could only nod and answer, “Alright, I’ll get going then.”
On the other side, the Fourth Prince had also received the news. He immediately summoned the seventh son of the Su family into the palace and ordered him to take advantage of the drought to send some people to Yunhe County to monitor Gu Chengrui.
The Emperor’s mother was the only person happy in the palace because she was the Third Prince’s only backer.
In Shanghe village, the weather was good today. In the morning, Zhou Ying cut sweet potatoes in the courtyard to dry them. Suddenly, she heard a scream from next door, which almost made her cut her hand.
At the thought of Qiu Niang, who was about to give birth, she put down her knife and ran over.
She saw Da Hua trembling in the yard and quickly went into the house to take a look.
She noticed Qiu Niang on the ground, biting her lower lip and sweating profusely.
She quickly walked over and helped her stand by the bed. “Qiu Niang, are you about to give birth?”
“I think so…” Qiu Niang nodded her head with difficulty.
“Lean against the bed first; I’ll call for help.” Zhou Ying turned around and walked out. She patted Da Hua’s shoulder and asked, “Da Hua, do you know where your mother is?”
Da Hua raised her head and nodded in panic. “Yes.”
“Hurry up and inform your mother. Tell her that your aunt is about to give birth and ask her to inform the midwife.”
“Oh, oh.” Da Hua responded and ran out in a panic.
Zhou Ying stopped a child running by the street and asked him to go to the Qian clan land and call Qian Jiawang back.
She then returned to the house to support Qiu Niang and slowly walked into the house..
