The abandoned concubine is charming and charming, and the sickly prince breaks his waist

The person who came was a young girl, wearing ordinary palace maid's clothes, but her face was somewhat similar to Empress Liu, and she looked exactly like Empress Liu when she was young.

The girl stepped forward and bowed to Empress Liu, then turned to look at the Crown Prince.

"Your Highness."

Hearing this extremely familiar voice, the prince looked at the girl in front of him with an incredible expression.

After hesitating for a while, he asked, "You are Xue Qiong, why is your face..."

He was sure that the voice belonged to Concubine Yi, but her face was not.

Empress Liu winked at Nanny Zhang, who understood, bowed to her, went out, closed the door and stood guard outside.

For a time, only Empress Liu, the Crown Prince, and Concubine Yi were left.

Empress Liu walked to the side and sat down and said, "Come and sit down before we talk."

The prince also came to his senses at this time, and he and Concubine Yi sat below Empress Liu.

After taking a look at Concubine Yi beside him, the prince couldn't help but ask, "Mother, what is going on? Why did Xue Qiong's face become like this?"

Empress Liu glanced at Concubine Yi and said with a smile, "It's a disguise technique."

The prince also glanced at Concubine Yi and said, "I have already arranged to take her out of the palace today. It is just right that she has changed her appearance now."

Upon hearing this, Empress Liu looked at Concubine Yi and said nothing.

Concubine Yi pondered for a moment, looked up at the Crown Prince and said, "Your Highness, I don't plan to leave the palace."

When the prince heard this, he stood up and frowned and asked, "Why?"

You know, in the eyes of others she is already dead. If people find out that she is still alive, they will definitely suspect his mother, and then it would be a crime of deceiving the emperor.

Concubine Yi understood what he meant. She sighed softly in her heart. In fact, she also wanted to leave the palace with him. Even if she couldn't marry him, it would be nice to be with him.

But what the Queen said to her last night made it impossible for her to refuse, nor could she harm the Prince.

After thinking about it, Yipin smiled at him and said, "Your Highness, Hua Shu is determined to go against the Queen now. She is very cunning and her schemes should not be underestimated. What's more, she also knows medical skills."

"If I leave the palace now, Her Majesty the Queen will have one less person she can trust, which is not a good thing for Her Majesty the Queen."

The prince naturally knew what she said, but he didn't want her to take such a risk. Besides, she now had a face similar to his mother's.

Wait, a face similar to his mother's.

The prince suddenly thought of something. He looked up at Empress Liu in disbelief and said, "Mother, are you going to let Xue Qiong stay in the palace with this face?"

Empress Liu nodded, picked up the tea at hand, took a sip, and said something that made the prince no longer able to remain calm.

"Not only will I let her stay in the palace with this face, I will also let her get close to your father with this face."

"Mother! Are you crazy?" The prince shouted, and for a moment, he thought she was crazy.

She actually wanted Xue Qiong to be his father's concubine. Doesn't this completely block her future?

Empress Liu frowned, put the teacup heavily on the table and looked at him: "Prince, please be careful with your words and actions!"

The prince said nothing and looked at her with an unpleasant expression.

Seeing this, Yipin hurried forward and said, "Your Highness, don't worry about me. I am staying in the palace voluntarily."

"But…"

The prince wanted to say something else, but Concubine Yi interrupted him with a smile: "Your Highness, you should focus on the overall situation now, not on where I go."

Empress Liu snorted coldly when she heard this, "You are the crown prince, but you are not as good as a woman like Xue Qiong in distinguishing priorities."

The prince looked at the two of them and sat back down. After a long while, he said, "But, mother, isn't it a bit strange for you to let Xue Qiong approach father with a face that looks a bit like yours?"

Empress Liu stroked her face with her hand, then looked at Concubine Yi and said, "I want her to get close to your father in this way, so as to evoke my memories of him and me when we were young."

After saying this, a sneer appeared on her lips. Hua Shu thought that she could be the favorite in the harem just by having her peerless beauty.

Little did she know that Emperor Wu Ren was only attracted to her for novelty.

If there was a woman that Emperor Wu Ren truly loved, it was only her, whom he married by any means necessary.

At that time, Emperor Wu Ren had already married a wife. At a Hundred Flowers Banquet, he fell in love with Empress Liu, who was still a young lady in the boudoir, at first sight.

She was willing to break up with her family to marry him, even if she was only a concubine in the end.

Therefore, Empress Liu could be sure that if anyone was asked who the woman Emperor Wu Ren loved most in his life, it would be her.

It's a pity that no matter how much love there was in youth, it could not withstand the passing of time. In addition, when he ascended the throne and was surrounded by countless women, he forgot everything that happened between them.

Now, she wanted Concubine Yi to approach him with this face, to remind him of what had happened between them and to make him feel guilty about himself.

The Crown Prince and Concubine Yi both understood what she meant, but the Crown Prince felt that the plan was too dangerous.

"Mother, have you ever thought that if you give Xue Qiong to father, he will definitely guess your intentions, and then he might even end up making things worse."

Empress Liu heard his words and laughed, "When did I ever say I would personally give her to your father?"

She certainly wouldn't be stupid enough to send Concubine Yi to Emperor Wu Ren herself.

The prince frowned, and soon realized her intention: "My mother wants to borrow someone else's hand."

Empress Liu smiled and did not answer his question: "Cheng'er, Xue Qiong is fine now. You have to take advantage of the fact that Hui Fei, oh no, Hui Bin is under house arrest during this period to find a way to overthrow Chu Yunxiao."

The prince nodded and said, "Don't worry, mother. I have a plan and I am just waiting for the right time."

When Empress Liu heard what he said, she nodded with relief, and then the three of them began to look for the reason why yesterday's plan failed.

……

afternoon.

Emperor Wu Ren came to Xiaoyuexuan, and with him came the imperial physician Sun, who had been checking his pulse and was also someone he had trained.

Hua Shu lifted the quilt, got out of bed and saluted him.

This time, Emperor Wu Ren did not help her up, but let her get up by herself, and then asked Imperial Doctor Sun to take her pulse.

He strongly suspected that Hua Shu's pregnancy was fake, after all, there was the example of Concubine Li Shu.

Another reason was that after he thought carefully about what happened last night, he always felt that it was related to her.

Doctor Sun stepped forward, bowed to Hua Shu, and said, "Please stretch out your left hand, my dear, so that I can feel your pulse."

Hua Shu knew that Emperor Wu Ren was beginning to doubt her, and she also knew that Imperial Physician Sun was his man, and his medical skills were far superior to those of all the other doctors in the Imperial Medical Bureau.

She didn't want him to feel her pulse from the bottom of her heart, but Emperor Wu Ren was still here, so she had no choice but to bite the bullet and reach out her hand.

"Thank you, Dr. Sun."

"Your Excellency, you are too kind. This is my humble duty." After he finished speaking, Imperial Doctor Sun began to carefully check her pulse.

Rendong and Caiyue on the side were so nervous that their hearts were in their throats. They both knew that their master's pregnancy was fake. If it was diagnosed, it would be a heinous crime that would lead to the extermination of all nine generations of the family.

For a moment, the room was eerily quiet. After a while, Doctor Sun asked Hua Shu to change her hand.

After a while, he withdrew his hand and looked at Hua Shu with a serious expression.

Upon seeing this, Emperor Wu Ren's eyes darkened: "How is it? Is there anything wrong with the dragon fetus in Concubine Rou's belly?"

Doctor Sun was silent for a moment, and then said something that shocked everyone.
