"Your Majesty, do you suspect that what happened today was directed and acted out by me?"

Tears fell as she spoke, and she looked extremely aggrieved and pitiful.

The effect of the medicine in Emperor Wu Ren's body had worn off by then, and seeing the beauty shedding tears, his heart softened.

"Don't think too much. I'm just worried that there's something dirty in your room, so I brought someone over to check."

Hua Shu leaned in his arms and sobbed, "Your Majesty, this is your and my first child. He hasn't even had the chance to see this world..."

Before she could finish her words, she had already burst into tears and her whole body could not help but tremble.

Emperor Wu Ren gently comforted her: "There will be children again."

Hua Shu didn't say anything and cried for a while before falling silent.

Upon seeing this, Emperor Wu Ren put her on the bed. Noticing the abnormal blush on her face, he quickly asked Imperial Doctor Sun to check her out.

After examining her, Imperial Physician Sun found that she had a slight fever. He told Emperor Wu Ren about it and went to the Imperial Hospital himself to prepare medicine.

When almost everyone had left, Qin Huai, who had remained silent from beginning to end, looked at Emperor Wu Ren and said, "Your Majesty, it is very unusual that you were drugged today."

After saying that, he glanced at Hua Shu and continued, "I have heard that Concubine Ren Rou is a medical practitioner. I suspect that what happened today is related to her."

His voice is warm and pleasant, which matches his face very well.

But to Hua Shu, who was "unconscious", the words sounded strangely familiar. She really wanted to open her eyes and take a look at his expression when he spoke.

But in the end she gave up this idea, because she didn't know Qin Huai at all. If she saw something, all her efforts today would be wasted.

As for Qin Huai, the sorcerer who was researching the art of longevity for the emperor, she had decided to let Chu Hengzhi investigate. If he could be used for her own benefit, that would be a good thing. If not, then she would get rid of him as soon as possible.

Emperor Wu Ren glanced at Hua Shu and said, "I think today's incident has nothing to do with Concubine Rou. If she had such high medical skills and scheming, she would not have been framed when she first entered the palace. Let's end this matter here."

Qin Huai opened his mouth but said nothing in the end, but his eyes were always on Hua Shu.

He really wanted to go forward and feel his pulse, but the emperor had already said that this was the end, so it was better for him not to cause trouble.

Soon, Doctor Sun came in personally with a bowl of medicine, and Caiyue and Rendong fed Huashu to drink it.

Emperor Wu Ren asked Qin Huai to go back first, leaving only Imperial Physician Sun and Imperial Physician He.

Qin Huai bowed to him and walked out. When he turned around, he couldn't help but look at Hua Shu again, his eyes were dark and unclear.

Hua Shu did not sleep all night because Emperor Wu Ren stayed with her all night and she did not dare to let herself fall into despair.

Fortunately, he left at the hour of Mao. Hua Shu said a few words to Caiyue and Rendong, and fell asleep as soon as he closed his eyes.

……

Another person who had not slept all night was Concubine Yi. She had been waiting for news from the prince in Lanyuexuan. Finally, she received the news that the emperor had stayed with Hua Shu all night.

She clenched the handkerchief tightly in her hand, wishing she could crush it into pieces.

Ever since Hua Shu entered the palace, they have been forced to retreat step by step, and they were even forced by her to change their identities to survive. Now she has even caused the Queen to have her Phoenix Seal taken away.

When Concubine Yi thought of the look in the prince's eyes last night, she felt a sharp pain in her heart.

After much thought, she decided to let the palace maid help her dress up. She was going to Chonghua Palace to pay her respects to the queen and ask her why there was oleander pollen in her box.

At first, she suspected the palace maid who came out to identify the queen, but after thinking about it carefully, she felt that it was impossible.

Because the Queen valued the box very much, she would never let anyone touch it except Nanny Zhang, so she wanted to ask what was going on.

When she regained her thoughts, she had already arrived at the gate of Chonghua Palace. Looking at the tightly closed palace gate, after the palace servant said that the queen was ill, she did not stay for long and took her people back to Lanyue Pavilion.

Unexpectedly, as soon as she arrived at Lanyuexuan, someone from Concubine Qi Hui's palace came and said that Concubine Qi Hui asked her to come over.

Concubine Yi did not hesitate. Now that she was apparently Concubine Qi Hui's person, she should get closer to her.

There was no conversation along the way, and they soon arrived at the gate of Concubine Qi Hui's palace. She was not living in Chenghuan Palace now, but in the smaller and remote Xiliang Palace.

Although this is not the cold palace, it is very close to it, and living here is no different from living in the cold palace.

However, Concubine Qi Hui still has her mother's family and Chu Yunxiao, so the emperor will give her some face.

Retracting her thoughts, Concubine Yi followed the palace maid inside. As soon as she entered, she saw Concubine Qi Hui sitting at the table with a livid face, and the handkerchief in her hand was almost crumpled to pieces.

Concubine Yi withdrew her gaze and bowed to her respectfully.

"Stand up and sit down." Although Concubine Qi Hui's face looked very ugly, she did not have the habit of taking out her anger on her subordinates.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Concubine Yi stood up but did not sit down. Instead, she stood beside Concubine Qi Hui and asked, "Your Majesty, are you worried about what happened last night?"

Concubine Qi Hui nodded, her face gloomy and she didn't say anything. She had no idea what happened last night, let alone participated in it.

Thinking about how she was almost banished to the cold palace last night, she unconsciously clenched the handkerchief in her hand.

Yipin had been with her for several years and could tell what she was thinking at a glance. She looked at her as if she wanted to say something but hesitated.

Seeing this, Concubine Qi Hui said impatiently, "Just say whatever you want to say."

After hearing this, Yipin thought for a moment and said, "Your Majesty, I initially thought that the Queen was responsible for what happened last night, but after thinking about it carefully, I feel that it was not her."

Concubine Qi Hui frowned and looked at her, asking, "Why do you say that?"

Yipin hesitated for a moment and said, "Your Majesty, if Nanny Zhang hadn't stepped forward to acknowledge the situation last night, the Queen would have been sent to the cold palace now. Since Nanny Zhang acknowledged it later, the Emperor still took back her Phoenix Seal. I think even if she is stupid, she would not be so stupid."

After hearing this, Concubine Qi Hui raised her eyebrows and looked at her: "You see things very clearly."

Yipin lowered her head and stammered, "Your Majesty, although I have only been in the palace for a short time, I have heard a little about what is going on there, so..."

"Go on, who do you think was responsible for what happened last night?" Concubine Qi Hui interrupted her.

Yipin hesitated for a moment and said, "Your Majesty, I actually suspect it was the Imperial Concubine, because I heard that Roupin was the Imperial Concubine's person, and the biggest beneficiary last night was the Imperial Concubine."

Concubine Qi Hui wanted to ask all these things when the Emperor asked the Imperial Concubine to act as the Six Palaces last night. What she couldn't understand was why Hua Shu was willing to use the child as a bargaining chip when she finally got pregnant.

After hesitating for a moment, she finally expressed her confusion.

Yipin hesitated for a moment, gritted her teeth and said, "Your Majesty, have you ever suspected that she was faking her pregnancy?"

After these words were spoken, Concubine Qi Hui's eyes turned cold. She stood up and grabbed Concubine Yi's neck, her eyes frighteningly fierce.

"who are you!"
