Jiang Tangxi's words were clearly a rejection of Jiang Jiayun. She didn't want to have too much entanglement with Jiang Jiayun.

When the Queen Mother heard Jiang Tangxi say that she felt a little tired, she immediately seized on the topic and said, "Jiang Tangxi, after you became pregnant, did you ask the imperial physician to take a look? This pregnancy is a big deal, and we can't be careless."

Jiang Tangxi said: "Your Highness, I know a little bit about medicine, so I didn't bother the imperial physician. I feel healthy and the baby is stable."

But the Empress Dowager refused to give in. She said, "That won't do. I still need to let the imperial physician take a look before I can rest assured."

After saying this, the Empress Dowager seemed to have been prepared for this and shouted, "Imperial Physician!"

The imperial physician immediately came in from outside, bowed to everyone in the room, and then stood respectfully aside, waiting for the Empress Dowager's instructions.

The old woman had prepared all this long ago!

The Empress Dowager spoke up, saying, "Imperial Physician, come and take a good look at Jiang Tangxi to see if the fetus is stable."

Jiang Tangxi thought, it wasn’t a big deal, it was just a pulse check.

So she stretched out her hand and placed it on the cushion on the table.

The imperial physician walked up to Jiang Tangxi and carefully placed his fingers on Jiang Tangxi's pulse.

He closed his eyes and carefully felt Jiang Tangxi's pulse.

After a while, the doctor opened his eyes and said to the Queen Mother with a smile: "Your Majesty, the princess's pregnancy is stable and she is already more than three months pregnant."

After hearing this, the Queen Mother simply said, "As long as the fetus is stable, it's good."

But there was no happiness in her tone, which made people feel a little strange.

At this time, Jiang Jiayun, who was sitting next to her, said, "Congratulations, sister. The pregnancy seems to be stable, which is a good thing. My father and I have been worried that your life will be difficult since it is your first pregnancy. But now it seems that the baby in your belly is very considerate. Also... your relationship with the prince is very good."

Although Jiang Jiayun said this with a smile, there was a hint of jealousy and provocation in her words.

This made the Empress Dowager standing by feel very uncomfortable, and her face became even gloomier.

After hearing what Jiang Jiayun said, Jiang Tangxi raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and said with a meaningful smile: "Jiang Jiayun, you are about to marry Xiao Yuxi, and you will soon be the Crown Princess! You are worthy of being my sister, the speed is really fast."

Jiang Tangxi's seemingly ordinary words were undoubtedly reminding the Empress Dowager that Jiang Jiayun was also from the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Sure enough, as soon as these words came out, the Empress Dowager's expression changed again instantly.

The power of the Prime Minister's Mansion in the court has always made the emperor extremely wary, and now the emperor is seriously ill, and all the important matters in the court are handled by Xiao Yuchen and Xiao Yuxi. After observing for a period of time, it is obvious that Xiao Yuxi is far less decisive than Xiao Yuchen in handling things.

And these two children from the Prime Minister's Mansion were married to the two most important princes in the court. How could this not arouse suspicion?

Jiang Tangxi is a coquettish person, but there is no guarantee that Jiang Jiayun is not.

The Empress Dowager's cold eyes immediately swept towards Jiang Jiayun, her eyes full of suspicion and scrutiny.

Jiang Jiayun felt a little uneasy when the Empress Dowager looked at her like that. She quickly lowered her head, not daring to look at the Empress Dowager.

Jiang Tangxi looked at the eye contact between the two and sneered in his heart.

She originally thought that the relationship between the two was as close as an iron wall, but now it seems to be just a pile of loose sand.

It seemed that Jiang Jiayun must have stirred up a lot of trouble behind her back when she was called to the palace tonight. However, no matter what, the child in her belly was Xiao Yuchen's. Based on her understanding of the empress dowager, even if she disliked her, she would not easily take action against her grandson or granddaughter, right?

As expected, the Queen Mother quickly changed the subject. She began to instruct the imperial physician, "Imperial physician, although the princess's pregnancy is stable, we must not be careless. Go and prescribe a medicine to stabilize her pregnancy."

When saying this, the Empress Dowager also deliberately emphasized the last few words: "abortion-stabilizing medicine."

When the imperial physician heard this, cold sweat began to appear on his forehead. His eyes flickered, as if he was hesitating about something.

Jiang Jiayun finally heard the Queen Mother say this, and a smug smile immediately appeared on her face.

She just didn't believe that Jiang Tangxi would be safe and sound now. She secretly thought in her heart that she must make Jiang Tangxi suffer a little.

She really couldn't stand Jiang Tangxi. Why did Jiang Tangxi, despite her humble status, receive all of Xiao Yuchen's love? Now even Xiao Yuxi's heart was with her.

Saying that you don't hate me or feel jealous is a lie!

Since childhood, what has she wanted?

This time is the same!!

When Jiang Tangxi heard what the Queen Mother said, she immediately said in a cold voice: "Queen Mother, I am a doctor myself, and I don't like taking medicine. Xiao Yuchen also knows this."

Jiang Tangxi's tone was firm, with no intention of backing down.

As soon as Jiang Tangxi said this, Jiang Jiayun jumped out and accused Jiang Tangxi of being disrespectful to the Empress Dowager.

She said loudly: "Jiang Tangxi, how can you speak to the Queen Mother like this? The Queen Mother is concerned about your health, and it would be fine if you don't appreciate it, but you still have this attitude, you are a traitor."

Jiang Jiayun's face was full of pride, as if she had already seen that Jiang Tangxi was about to get into trouble.

Jiang Tangxi looked at Jiang Jiayun, smiled and said, "I am telling the truth! Besides, I have seen the medical skills of the imperial physician in this palace."

There was a hint of disdain in Jiang Tangxi's eyes.

Then, she turned to look at the Empress Dowager with an innocent face and said faintly: "Could it be that the Empress Dowager doesn't know the medical skills of the imperial physician in the palace? Or does she want Xiao Yuchen's child to test the medical skills of the imperial physician in the palace for the Empress Dowager?"

Jiang Tangxi's words were extremely bold, directly exposing the contradiction.

After hearing what Jiang Tangxi said, the Empress Dowager was so angry that she trembled all over.

She slammed the table hard and said loudly, "Jiang Tangxi, you are such an ungrateful person. I was kind enough to care about your health, but you said such nonsense. Are you deliberately trying to sow discord between me and Prince Yu? And you said you had no ill intentions?"

The Empress Dowager's face turned red, and her angry look was a little scary.

Jiang Tangxi was not frightened by the Empress Dowager's aura. She straightened up and said, "Empress Dowager, I am just telling the truth. I know you don't like me, but you can't use this method to deal with me. The baby in my belly is innocent. You can't do something to hurt the child because of your prejudice against me."

She said that? She didn't believe that old woman could do anything else!
