Concubine Xu struggled hard and knocked over the bowl of bird's nest. She knelt on the ground trembling and kowtowed to the Queen Mother at the top of the table: "Queen Mother..."

The Queen Mother stood up, looked down at Concubine Xu, snorted coldly, and walked away.

When the people had gone far away, Concubine Xu had already collapsed and sat on the ground.

Upon seeing this, Xu Feng rushed forward and helped Concubine Xu up. Concubine Xu was so frightened that she trembled with fear and collapsed in Xu Feng's arms, crying.

Xu Feng let go of Concubine Xu's hand only after her emotions had gradually stabilized.

"Can't they wait even a moment?"

Concubine Xu hated Empress Liu in her heart. She was still plotting against her even after her death. She also hated the Liu family. She raised her head and grabbed Xu Feng's sleeve and said, "Brother, the only way to prove that I am pregnant with a royal child is to do a blood test."

"Do you know what it means when this child is born?" Xu Feng said in a calm tone.

Concubine Xu forgot to cry and stared at Xu Feng without blinking. She saw sadness in his eyes. She was smart, so how could she not see the clues?

"Go with the mother and keep the son." Xu Feng uttered four words.

Concubine Xu shuddered all over.

"The current situation can't wait for you to give birth to this child." Xu Feng helped Concubine Xu sit on a chair beside him, and said earnestly: "The Queen has died, and the Crown Prince will definitely rebel at the border. The final result is only death. The Emperor's body is already at the end of its strength. Now, several major families are on the side of the Third Prince, and there is no doubt that he will take the throne."

Hearing this, Concubine Xu bit her lip unwillingly.

"The Third Prince has the support of Southern Liang, and hundreds of thousands of troops are eyeing the border covetously. What can you use to fight?" Xu Feng asked back.

That night, Concubine Xu sat quietly on the couch.

It was not until the next morning when the palace maid came to help her wash up that she was shocked to find that there was blood under Concubine Xu's knees and her face was pale.

"Empress!" the palace maid exclaimed.

Concubine Xu realized it belatedly and lowered her head. She took a look at the blood spreading on the edge of her skirt, and suddenly her eyes turned black and she fainted.

When she woke up again, the imperial physician was waiting by her bed. The severe pain in her lower body reminded her all the time that the child was gone.

Concubine Xu closed her eyes unwillingly.

……

"Concubine Xu had a miscarriage."

When the news reached the Third Prince's Mansion, Ning Xianyun was not surprised. The child should not have been conceived in the first place. The most taboo thing in the royal family is to be soft-hearted.

When Madam Liu told her the news, Ning Xianyun pretended to be very surprised.

"Noble Concubine Xu is unlucky and cannot keep this child." Madam Liu sat aside and rubbed Liu Xiangling's wrist with her hand: "No one can shake my daughter's future position."

Bo Yan'er also suffered a miscarriage.

When the maid came to Ning Xianyun with blood on her hand, she said that Bo Yan'er accidentally fell in the corridor and her stomach hit the stone pillar, bleeding on the spot.

"Why is it so sudden?" Madam Liu frowned, clearly showing her disbelief.

"Concubine Ning, my concubine has fallen unconscious and is bleeding profusely. If the bleeding cannot be stopped, her life may be in danger. You should go and take a look at her quickly." The maid said anxiously.

Just as Ning Xianyun was about to stand up, she noticed a flash of guilt in the maid's eyes. She suddenly stopped and shouted for someone to call a doctor.

"Concubine Ning, since you are in charge of the backyard, don't you go and see my concubine?" the maid asked.

Ning Xianyun frowned: "I don't know any medical skills, and your concubine and I don't get along, how can I help?"

I didn't expect Ning Xianyun to say it so bluntly, which shocked the maid speechless. She could only rack her brains to think of a reason.

Madam Liu soon saw the clues of her appearance. She raised her chin and said, "I am an experienced person and I know a little bit. Concubine Ning is also pregnant. It is really inconvenient. I will go with you to take a look."

Without giving the maid a chance to explain, Madam Liu asked the maid to lead the way.

The maid had no choice but to go on.

Ning Xianyun stood in the corridor and sighed. Northern Qi was becoming more and more chaotic.

"Master, His Highness will be back tonight, and we will be able to go back soon." Xue Yuan said.

Ning Xianyun shook her head, always feeling that something was wrong, but she couldn't put her finger on it. She rubbed her eyebrows and sent someone to keep an eye on Bo Yan'er.

"Go check Concubine Bo's every move today."

Xue Yuan was surprised: "Master, do you suspect that Concubine Bo is taking this opportunity to attack you?"

"It's hard to explain, but it's definitely not right." Ning Xianyun thought for a moment, then said, "Go to the Bo family and tell them that Concubine Bo had a miscarriage and suffered heavy bleeding."

Mrs. Bo was feeding medicine to Bo Yuanchuan, comforting him and telling him not to worry, that there would definitely be a way to cure it.

Bo Yuanchuan was so angry that he kept groaning: "They say that every time. The Bo family is now being suppressed to death and doesn't even have a chance to breathe."

"I'm your mother, how can I harm you?" Madam Bo said firmly. She looked around and muttered a few words to herself when she saw that no one was around. Bo Yuanchuan's eyes widened: "Are you saying that the third prince today is the evil child of the past?"

"Shh!" Mrs. Bo covered Bo Yuanchuan's mouth with her hand, her heart beating like thunder: "Don't say that, but this matter is indeed suspicious."

Bo Yuanchuan seemed to have thought of something, and slapped his thigh: "I said it, the Third Prince is a playboy, he is obviously uneducated and has not even learned the most basic Four Books and Five Classics. He is like a different person after escaping death, and he even schemed against the Crown Prince. This is not something that a idiot would do."

His emotions suddenly became a little agitated: "Mother, that little bastard suddenly replaced the identity of the Third Prince, and the Xu brothers and sisters just came to the capital. Does this mean that the Xu family can't escape either?"

Madam Bo nodded, her eyes gleaming with ferocity: "No one who hurts you will be able to escape."

Bo Yuanchuan's mood suddenly improved a lot. He took the medicine from Mrs. Bo's hand, tilted his head back and drank it all in one gulp. He didn't even feel the bitterness of the medicine anymore.

"I must torture Xu Feng a hundred times or a thousand times more severely!" Bo Yuanchuan was already impatient.

At this time, the maid came to deliver the news: "Madam, the concubine has had a miscarriage and her life is in danger. You should go and see her quickly."

Mrs. Bo calmly picked up the handkerchief and gently wiped the corner of her mouth: "It is hard for a woman to have a miscarriage, just bear with it."

This child is a bastard. Mrs. Bo will never let her give birth to it.

So she gave Concubine Bo some advice and protected herself step by step.

"Madam, no, it's the concubine who is really dying." The maid said in panic.

Mrs. Bo frowned, and she couldn't remain calm anymore. She glanced at the sky and said, "Let's go and take a look!"
