After dinner the next day, Shen Meizhuang and Zhen Huan went to the Yangxin Palace.

After listening to what Liu Bin said, the emperor ordered Hua Fei to be demoted to Nianpin.

After Shen Meizhuang and Zhen Huan left, Yongzheng summoned Su Peisheng and said, "It's getting late today. Let's go and convey the decree tomorrow!"

"Yes!"

"Go and spread the news that Liu Bin has been found."

"Yes!"

Su Peisheng looked at the emperor's expression and realized that the emperor still loved Concubine Hua!

Yongzheng slowly figured it out in his mind, the opportunity was given to Concubine Hua, whether she could seize it depended on herself!

The Yangxin Palace became quiet. After Yongzheng finished handling government affairs, he did not go to rest. Instead, he picked up a book and read it at random!

Su Peisheng looked at the Western clock and said, "Your Majesty, it's almost midnight. You should rest!"

"Wait a little longer." Yongzheng didn't even raise his head.

A quarter of an hour later, Su Peisheng walked into the palace, "Your Majesty, Concubine Nian requests an audience."

Yongzheng breathed a sigh of relief and looked up at him. "Has the imperial edict been passed down?"

"not yet."

"Then don't call me Nianpin!" Yongzheng threw the book on the imperial desk.

Su Peisheng was shocked, "Yes!"

Concubine Hua brought Jiang Shen into the Yangxin Palace and presented him with a prescription for treating the epidemic.

Early the next morning, Yongzheng went to Yonghe Palace for breakfast and summoned Zhen Huan to accompany him.

After Yongzheng left, Shen Meizhuang could no longer control her emotions. She gripped the teacup tightly, as if she wanted to crush it. Finally, she threw the teacup to the ground, and it instantly shattered into countless pieces, splashing tea everywhere.

Zhen Huan quickly stepped forward to support Shen Meizhuang, patting her back gently. She said with concern, "Sister, please don't be angry. You must take care of the baby in your belly!" After that, she turned to Cai Yue and ordered, "Quickly, go and ask Wen Changzai to come over."

Caiyue went to the next door like a gust of wind.

Not long after, An Lingrong slowly walked into the palace. She took one glance at the scene inside and knew what was going on. She sighed inwardly, but for now, she had no choice but to comfort Shen Meizhuang.

"Fortunately, this cup is not worth much. It's broken, so it's broken. Are you relieved, sister?" After saying that, she waved to the servants to go into the hall to clean it up to prevent it from being stepped on by others.

Seeing that the two of them were silent, he said, "Sisters, we knew in advance that the Liu Bin incident would not cause any substantial damage to Concubine Hua. Why are you still angry?"

Shen Meizhuang's voice was cold, "I am heartbroken. The emperor is so partial!"

Nian Gengyao is in the limelight now. For the sake of stability of the former dynasty, the emperor will not punish Hua, but he has to pretend because of the conclusive evidence. He uses the decree to demote Hua Fei to stabilize Shen Meiyu and buys Hua Fei one night. He is making fun of them!

Zhen Huan recalled the conversation between An Lingrong and Wen Shichu that day, "Go find Wen Shichu!"

After a while, Wen Shichu entered the hall and knelt on the ground, "Please punish the three young masters!"

It turned out that Wen Shichu had prepared a prescription according to the pathological symptoms described by An Lingrong, and also boiled several doses of medicine to feed to the young eunuch who was infected with the epidemic. It was effective, but unexpectedly, he stayed at the Imperial Hospital last night and fainted for no reason. He woke up early this morning in the Wufang room where the imperial physician was on duty, but the prescription had disappeared, and Jiang Shen had become the hero who developed the epidemic prescription.

"Your humble servant is ashamed to Miss Wen!" Wen Shichu was so ashamed that he couldn't even lift his head!

After listening to Wen Shichu’s story.

Shen Meizhuang said angrily: "This Hua Fei is simply unscrupulous!"

Zhen Huan said worriedly, "It doesn't matter whether my rank is demoted or not. I'm just worried that developing a prescription to treat the epidemic is a huge achievement. I'm afraid the emperor will restore her power to assist in managing the six palaces!" After saying that, she sighed helplessly.

When Wen Shichu heard that his mistake had led to such serious consequences, he felt extremely remorseful and kept kowtowing to apologize.

Shen Meizhuang quickly stopped him and asked anxiously, "Kowtowing like this won't help! Is there any way to salvage the situation now?"

Several people looked at An Lingrong.

"No!" An Lingrong answered bluntly.

Shen Meizhuang thought for a moment and said, "If I go to the Emperor and tell him that the prescription was developed by Imperial Doctor Wen, will he believe it?"

An Lingrong shook her head. "I'm afraid Doctor Wen will be accused of being too eager for credit. Besides, the Emperor is only concerned about whether the prescription is effective. As for who developed it, it doesn't matter!"

She gestured for Wen Shichu to get up, "Even if you didn't lose the prescription, the Emperor would have other ways to help Concubine Hua escape punishment. Get up!"

"Doctor Wen, please take my sister's pulse!" An Lingrong suddenly spoke.

Doctor Wen took out a pulse pillow and a silk handkerchief and came forward. After a moment, he replied, "Your Majesty and the Dragon Heir are in good health!"

"What else?" An Lingrong asked.

Wen Shichu whispered, "The Emperor will get what he wants!"

This sentence is equivalent to announcing the gender of the dragon heir.

An Lingrong thought for a moment and asked, "How do your medical skills compare to Doctor Zhang's?"

"Doctor Zhang is the chief judge of the Imperial Hospital, and his medical skills are superior to yours."

As soon as he said this, Zhen Huan and Shen Meizhuang both understood what he meant.

Since Wen Shichu was able to diagnose the gender of the dragon heir, then Doctor Zhang, as Shen Meiyu's personal physician, must have discovered it early on. Maybe the Queen also knows it now!

"Sister, we will no longer be involved in Concubine Hua's affairs. Right now, you and the child in your belly are the most important," An Lingrong said, looking at Shen Meizhuang. Concubine Hua was now powerful, and the Emperor favored her. Provoking her would only bring trouble. So, they had to protect Shen Meizhuang and the child first, and then make plans when the time was right.

Zhen Huan also nodded in agreement, turned around and patted Shen Meizhuang's hand, "Don't worry, sister, I have another theory about this matter, just wait a moment."
