After Concubine Hua left, Shen Meizhuang continued to perfect her plan against the Queen in her mind.

Just as he closed his eyes and thought, he heard heavy footsteps. As the footsteps got closer, the man's breathing became heavier.

She slowly opened her eyes, and what came into view was her uncle whom she had missed for many days.

Shen Meizhuang's eyes immediately filled with tears of grievance, her little mouth pursed, and then she wanted to sit up.

Wen Shichu and Hua Fei arrived almost at the same time, and he listened to their entire conversation.

He guessed that something would happen tonight, so he should have come earlier. Looking at the person who didn't even have the strength to sit up, the sweat and tears on his forehead intertwined together and flowed into his hair. He looked extremely fragile.

This made him feel very helpless. He sat down gently on the edge of the bed. At this moment, any words were pale.

Wen Shichu gently lifted the person up and held him tightly in his arms. Gradually, he could hear sobbing sounds and the clothes on his shoulders began to feel wet.

He blamed himself. Knowing that the fighting in the harem was cruel, why couldn't he think more about it?

It seemed that he had never done anything for Shen Meizhuang!

"Wen Shichu, why are you here just now?" Shen Meizhuang raised her face,

Big tears fell from her eyes, her pale smiling face had a red nose due to crying, and her round and plump lips were also soaked with warmth.

Suddenly, Shen Meizhuang frowned and breathed heavily, which scared Wen Shichu.

Wen Shichu immediately let go of the person and placed his fingertips on the fair wrist.

It was only after a long time that I realized that in addition to the signs of impending birth, there was also a trace of poisoning in her body. It was very weak and could easily be overlooked without careful examination.

Really so domineering...

In Changchun Xianguan, Yixiu sat at the head of the bed, staring at the sleeping Yinzhen with her bright eyes.

She has been looking at this face for more than 20 years, and now when she looks at it again, she still feels extremely nostalgic.

Looking at Yinzhen who was sleeping peacefully, Yixiu frowned slightly and immediately took out a handkerchief and wiped him gently to relieve the heat in Yinzhen's body.

Jianqiu walked in slowly at this time. Just as she was about to speak, Yixiu made a prohibiting gesture.

Only after he finished wiping the emperor did he walk out with Jianqiu.

Jian Qiu: "Your Majesty, not long ago, the guards at the gate came to report that Bitong Academy had sent a young eunuch. He was stopped by the guards at the gate and was not allowed in. After a short argument, the eunuch left."

Yixiu's eyes no longer had the gentleness she had in the room. Now, her face had completely darkened.

"Didn't I send people to guard the several intersections leading to Bitong Academy? How did someone still break out?"

Jianqiu remained silent and did not respond.

Yixiu sighed: "Add more people and don't let anyone in.

Originally, I only wanted to get rid of Ningpin's dragon fetus, but now it seems that even she herself cannot be saved."

Jianqiu was a little confused, but she would never contradict the queen.

I only heard Yixiu continue: "In the past, I thought that Ningpin was more intelligent than other concubines. Without the dragon embryo, no matter how capable she is, she can't make waves.

But now it seems that she has always known that it was me who attacked her, and has been on guard against me. There are also people watching me, so I can't let such a person stay."

Jianqiu: "My Lady, do you have any other plans?"

Yixiu shook her head: "No need. Today's arrangement is enough to kill Ningpin. But I am curious about what kind of poison Huafei used."

"Also, remember to ask the palace maid we found earlier to come out tomorrow to testify against Concubine Hua and Concubine Ning. We must give the Emperor an explanation about this."

Jianqiu nodded in agreement, "I have made all the necessary arrangements. Your Majesty, it is already late at night. The hot water is always ready in the bathroom. Your Majesty should take a bath and rest early."

After that, the two of them walked towards the bathroom.

Xiao Xia Zi, who was hiding in the dark, was frightened to death by the Queen's conversation. He had ruined the Queen's plan.

Seeing that the queen had left, he hurried into the bedroom while no one was around, knelt before the bed and called softly, "Your Majesty... Your Majesty, Concubine Ning is about to give birth."

Seeing the emperor frown slightly, Xiao Xia Zi called out twice again.

Yinzhen opened his scarlet eyes and frowned. Fortunately, he was a king with extremely strong self-control and never got grumpy when waking up.

Whenever there was an important matter in the previous dynasty, no matter what time it was, he would immediately stand up, bend over the desk and handle the official business.

Yinzhen asked in a hoarse voice, "How is Concubine Ning?"

Xiao Xiazi was still kneeling on the ground: "Your Majesty, Concubine Ning is about to give birth. Please come over."

Yinzhen raised his eyes and looked around before realizing that this was Changchun Fairy House.

Then he was about to get up. Seeing this, Xiao Xiazi immediately helped him up.

The prince in Concubine Ning's belly was the one he had been looking forward to for a long time. The imperial physician diagnosed it early on. This was also the first prince he had after he ascended the throne.

Yinzhen, who had drunk the hangover soup and had a nap before, still felt a little dizzy, but he was much clearer.

"Where are the people from Bitong Academy?" Yinzhen asked casually.

Xiao Xiazi was shocked. What could he say? He could only say that he had asked his eunuch to find Wufang and specifically told him that the guards of Changchun Xianguan would not let him in.

Isn't this just to please the Queen? Even he himself had to find an excuse to deliver something for the Emperor to get in.

Yinzhen was very puzzled when he saw that the person next to him did not answer for a long time and was biting his lower lip tightly.

He was just asking a reporting eunuch, so why couldn't he answer? So he asked again in a stern voice, "Where are the people from Bitong Academy?"

Xiao Xiazi was so frightened that she immediately knelt down: "Your Majesty... Your servant..."

"Say--" Yinzhen was angry.

Xiao Xiazi was so frightened that her calves were cramping: "Your Majesty, that servant was stopped outside."

After saying this, he was ready to die without saying anything more. He was also afraid! He was optimistic about Concubine Ning, but that didn't mean he had the ability to dare to offend the Queen.

If the queen wanted to strangle him to death, wouldn't that be easier than crushing an ant?

After hearing this, Yinzhen didn't say much, but his face became even gloomier. After he was dressed, he was about to go out.

Yi Zhengzhen happened to finish bathing and walked in. He looked at the emperor who had already stood up in surprise. He guessed that the guards did not stop him and asked someone to pass the news in.

Yixiu forced a gentle smile: "Your Majesty, it's so late, are you going back to the Qinzheng Palace?"

Yinzhen looked Yixiu up and down with a scrutinizing gaze and said, "Concubine Ning is about to give birth. I will go there first. The Queen should get herself ready and come back later."

Then, without saying anything more, he turned and left.

Yixiu didn't expect that the emperor was unwilling to wait for her even for this short time and left alone.

I don’t know how Concubine Ning is doing. The time is short. I just hope Concubine Hua’s medicine will have some effect!

Yixiu's eyes were filled with anger. "Investigate, investigate for me, how did this news get in? A servant who is so incompetent has no need to stay by my side."
