Yikun Palace

Concubine Hua sat in her seat with an extremely sad heart. She stuffed pickles into her mouth desperately. Before she could swallow the last one, she stuffed the next one into her mouth.

Such a scary scene made Songzhi a little panicked.

"My Queen, please stop eating. It's bad for your health!"

Concubine Hua did not listen to Songzhi's advice, but continued to stuff pickles into her mouth.

Finally, she couldn't bear it anymore and vomited on the ground with a wow sound. Songzhi hurried forward to serve Hua Fei, but unexpectedly, Hua Fei stood up crazily and laughed, "Songzhi, look, I'm vomiting, I'm vomiting, am I pregnant? Go call the imperial physician, go call the imperial physician!"

Songzhi has been with Concubine Hua since she was a child. Seeing such a master, she felt even more distressed.

"My lady, my lady, you will have it, child."

Hua Fei sneered, tears streaming down her face. "I was once pregnant too, with a fully formed male fetus."

The more Hua Fei spoke, the sadder she became. She felt as if her heart was being tightly gripped by a huge fist, making it almost impossible for her to breathe.

Memories from many years ago surged into Hua Fei's mind like a tide, as if the child's death happened just yesterday.

That was Nian Shilan, a pain she would never forget in her life.

Concubine Hua suddenly changed the subject and cursed angrily, "It's all because of that bitch. If it weren't for her bowl of pregnancy-preserving medicine, how could this palace's child be gone?"

After saying this, Concubine Hua suddenly stood up, wiped the tears from her face, and walked out of the door angrily with Songzhi.

It was now late at night, and Jixiang was helping Concubine Duan drink her medicine.

When she noticed Concubine Hua at the door, she was so frightened that she almost dropped the medicine bowl on the ground.

Concubine Duan had long been accustomed to it, and there was even a hint of smile in her eyes.

Ever since Concubine Hua came to her palace and caused trouble, the Empress and Concubine Xian have added more people to her palace.

Today, she deliberately withdrew the guards just to let Concubine Hua come and make trouble.

Concubine Duan is also the daughter of a military general, although her family's current power is nothing compared to that of the Nian family.

But she still knew what was going on outside the palace. The Nian family had become so powerful, why didn't she add fuel to the fire?

It's time to tell Concubine Hua the truth about what happened back then.

After Hua Fei and Duan Fei looked at each other, Hua Fei slapped Duan Fei hard without saying a word.

Concubine Duan smiled bitterly, "For so many years, whenever the Queen loses her temper, she will come to my palace and make a scene."

Hua Fei was so angry that her teeth itched. "For so many years, whenever I think of that unborn child, I want to eat your flesh and drink your blood. You vicious woman, after the emperor ascended the throne, he actually honored you as a concubine. People like you should be banished to the cold palace."

Concubine Duan smiled sarcastically, then hinted, "Your Majesty is such a wise and virtuous monarch. If I were truly as evil as you say, how could His Majesty retain my position?"

But now, Concubine Hua had lost all her reason. Her eyes were red and she cursed with gritted teeth, "That's all because you, a bitch, bewitched the Emperor. Oh, and the Empress too. I'm afraid she was also involved. But I won't let you go."

Concubine Duan took a deep breath and continued to hint, "Back then, the palace was always strictly managed. If that bowl of medicine was really an abortion drug, how could it have been delivered to you? That bowl of abortion-preserving medicine was not made by me. The prince asked me to bring it to you!"

This is almost obvious, but Concubine Hua is now only willing to believe what she believes.

"If it weren't for the bowl of medicine given by the prince, and if it weren't for you being in the palace back then, you could be considered a peaceful person. But I never thought you could be so vicious and abort my child. I will not let you go."

Concubine Duan was so angry that she laughed. Concubine Hua was so stupid.

She didn't want to rehash the past with Concubine Hua anymore. "It's late now. If this incident today alarms the Empress Dowager, the Emperor, or even the Empress, someone who doesn't know would think that Concubine Hua is jealous because Concubine Wan is pregnant, and that's why she came to me and made such a scene. If anything happens to Concubine Wan's child in the future, the Emperor will inevitably suspect you."

Hua Fei interrupted with a sneer, "Nonsense! How could the Emperor doubt me? The Emperor trusts me the most. Don't try to instigate me like that."

Concubine Duan looked straight into Concubine Hua's eyes. "Is that so? You have indeed been favored over the years. But does the Emperor really trust you 100%?"

Concubine Hua felt a little guilty at this moment, and she avoided Concubine Duan's sight.

"No matter what, I am the most powerful Consort Hua in this palace, while you can only linger in this palace. Don't worry, I will not let you have an easy time every day from now on."

After saying that, Concubine Hua left angrily, but Concubine Duan looked at her departing back and just found it funny. Why did it look more and more like she was running away?

On the way back, Concubine Hua sat in the sedan chair and ordered Songzhi, "All the rewards in the palace are not allowed to be given to Concubine Duan. Give all the money to the Imperial Hospital and just say that she took the medicine. No one is allowed to treat Concubine Duan well. Do you understand?"

Songzhi knew that her master was angry again, so she could only nod repeatedly.

"Don't worry, Madam. We have been doing this for years, and we have always taken good care of it."

Songzhi knew very well that there was Concubine Xian in the past and there was the Queen now. Concubine Duan was still a concubine after all, so they could not go too far.

But it's okay to make things difficult for others, as long as it's not a big deal and there's money to pave the way, then everything will be fine.

The brothers Jiang Cheng and Jiang Shen are no longer around, and the imperial physician mentioned in Hua Fei's letter is no longer in the palace. Hua Fei plans to ask her brother to find an imperial physician outside the palace to take a good look at her.

However, Concubine Hua did not intend to tell Yixiu about this matter, but instead went directly to the emperor for help.

The emperor felt a little guilty, but he knew that if he found an excuse to refuse, Concubine Hua would find another opportunity to ask again next time.

He smiled and agreed, but said, "This is against the rules after all. If the Empress and the concubines knew about it, they would inevitably criticize me. But I have thought of a good idea. The Empress Dowager is not in good health right now. I think it would be better to invite an imperial physician from outside the palace under the pretext of treating the Empress Dowager. Let him examine the Empress Dowager first, and then he can examine you."

Hua Fei was deeply moved. She looked up at the emperor with joy and said with a smile: "I thank you very much for your consideration. I really don't know how to thank you."

While the emperor was trying to comfort Concubine Hua, he couldn't help but feel annoyed.

He really needs to talk to the Empress Dowager about how to stabilize this new imperial physician.
