Quick Wear: Crazy Female Supporting Role She is Bai Yueguang
Chapter 383: Shadow of Meizhuang (43)
The huge Jingren Palace was so silent at this time that you could even hear the sound of a pin drop.
The concubines of lower rank did not dare to talk nonsense, while the concubines of higher rank just wanted to watch the show.
The queen's face changed slightly, and she pretended to be calm, but her tightly gripped armor revealed her emotions.
She originally wanted to use the non-existent prince in her belly to drag Zhen Huan or Shen Meiyu into the water, making Zhen Huan bear the infamy and sin. Even if she gave birth to a royal heir, the child would only be hers.
She used this trick to kill the mother and take the son very easily. For the queen, only interests were the most important in her heart, and everything else was just a stepping stone for her.
There are so many wronged souls in the harem, could it be that all of them are seeking revenge on her?
But Shen Meizhuang actually ruined her plan. The queen was unable to take care of herself and began to think of a retreat.
Although Hua Fei is stupid, she has insight into people's hearts and knows that if she attacks the Queen, the Emperor may not punish her.
Anyway, she has been unhappy with the Queen for a long time and has been competing with her for so many years. If the Queen fakes her pregnancy, perhaps the Emperor will give her the power to manage the six palaces.
"Your Majesty, this is about the heir to the throne. The Empress has always been accommodating. How could she do such a thing? Could it be that someone is deliberately plotting against the Empress? After all, Wen Shichu is Concubine Wan's man."
These words were well-reasoned and there was no flaw in them. The emperor, who was originally angry with Concubine Hua, now calmed down and spoke in a cold voice.
"Come here, invite all the doctors from the Imperial Hospital to come and see the Empress and Concubine Wan separately."
Xiao Xiazi quickly accepted the order and said respectfully, "Yes, Your Majesty."
After Xiao Xiazi went to the Imperial Hospital, the emperor looked at his confidant Su Peisheng and said with gritted teeth.
"Su Peisheng, take a few people and write down the records separately. If the Queen is really faking her pregnancy, I will never forgive her. I will never allow such a thing to happen in the harem, and no one will be an exception."
Once bitten, twice shy.
At that time, the incident of Shen Meizhuang caused a lot of uproar and there was no peace in the court. The emperor knew that only when the harem was stable could he be at ease about the affairs of the court.
Moreover, whether the Queen's fake pregnancy was true or not, it damaged the reputation of the royal family.
The queen secretly winked at Jianqiu in the dark, and she was speaking lip language.
The master and servant were connected by heart. Jianqiu understood what the queen meant and quickly and quietly left Jingren Palace.
The Queen meant that she must ask the Queen Mother to come over, otherwise, the Queen would have a hard time protecting herself today.
The Empress Dowager has always been fond of the Queen. They are all members of the Ulanara family, so they are naturally protective of her. Perhaps only the Empress Dowager can break the deadlock.
Jianqiu racked her brains in Shou'an Palace, took out the Queen's phoenix seal, and finally asked for an audience with the Queen Mother, where she explained the matter.
The empress dowager knew that the matter was serious, so she changed her clothes and went to Jingren Palace wearing the fox fur coat that the emperor had given her not long ago.
The queen must be protected, but she also has to explain to everyone in the harem, otherwise if the news gets to the previous dynasty, the emperor will become a laughing stock.
The emperor values his reputation the most, and this matter must be resolved properly.
Zhen Huan took a sip of tea and spoke softly to Shi Qing.
"Sister Mei, tell me, is the Queen busy today?"
Shi Qing said calmly, "As long as the Empress Dowager is still alive, even if the Empress makes a huge mistake, it will be covered up. However, the power held by the Empress is uncertain as to who will have it."
The Queen was born a concubine and cares most about the power in her hands. Even if she is not implicated today, she may not feel comfortable if her power is taken away.
People from the Imperial Hospital arrived after a cup of tea, and all the concubines were asked to return to the harem, except Concubine Hua, Shi Qing, Zhen Huan and the Queen who stayed behind.
The emperor's voice was cold, "Empress, you and I have been married for many years. Do you have anything to say to me?"
The Queen looked at the Emperor calmly, her voice unhurried.
"Your Majesty, I believe justice is in the hearts of the people. The imperial physician who treated me was personally appointed by Your Majesty. Why would I lie?"
The emperor didn't say anything. Well, the Imperial Hospital will take care of it.
An hour later, the imperial physicians examined the Queen and Zhen Huan's pulses separately. Finally, Su Peisheng handed all the records to the Emperor and said respectfully.
"Your Majesty, everyone in the Imperial Hospital has examined the patients separately. The Empress is not pregnant, and Concubine Wan is almost six months pregnant. However..."
Su Peisheng's pause caused the emperor's dissatisfaction.
"Tell me everything, no matter how big or small. Don't hide anything."
Su Peisheng knelt down quickly, "Empress Wan's body has been poisoned. If she's not careful during childbirth, she'll bleed to death..."
"Your Majesty, someone wants to harm me..."
Zhen Huan bit her handkerchief, tears welled up in her eyes, and she cried like a pear blossom in the rain.
Shi Qing hurriedly supported Zhen Huan and started to play, "Huan'er, the emperor loves you the most. If someone wants to harm the heir, the emperor will definitely stand up for you!"
When the emperor heard the last few words of Su Peisheng's report, he suddenly remembered that on a rainy night decades ago, his Queen Chunyuan died of childbirth and hemorrhage.
Looking at the appearances of Zhen Huan and Chun Yuan, which were 60% to 70% alike, the emperor felt more and more upset. He was trapped in that rainy night and couldn't get out.
After so many years, even though I got a daughter named Huanhuan, it is not enough to make up for the regret in my heart.
Even if I could get Wanwan, who looked like you, to temporarily relieve my deep thoughts, it would still be like the clouds of Wushan.
The emperor walked to Zhen Huan's side and said soothingly, "Huan Huan, I will never let anyone harm your child and my child."
Xiao Xiazi hurried over and sent the panicked palace maid into the palace.
"Master, this woman just left Jingren Palace in a hurry, as if she was eager to burn something. This is what we found on her. It's a prescription and many medicinal herbs. I can't read, so please take a look, Master."
After saying that, Xiao Xiazi presented the evidence to Su Peisheng.
When Su Peisheng saw the medicinal herbs above, he felt horrified. These herbs were the ones that caused Queen Chunyuan to suffer from hemorrhage back then.
With trembling hands, he quickly showed it to the emperor, "Your Majesty, the medicine written here is the same as the prescription that Empress Chunyuan used to nourish her pregnancy."
But in the end, Empress Chunyuan died because of the prescription for nourishing the fetus.
Concubine Wan's pregnancy-nourishing medicine must have been tampered with.
The queen looked up in disbelief. No, she didn't do this! How could she be so stupid as to do something in her own palace?
Someone must be harming himself.
She looked at Concubine Hua, Zhen Huan, and Shi Qing with vicious eyes. Who on earth dared to bring up the past?
Queen Chunyuan is her trump card. Although her good sister has been dead for many years, she always arouses the emperor's love for her.
Every time the queen made a mistake, she used Chunyuan as a shield, and the emperor never blamed her. Today, she wanted to use the same trick again and let the emperor expose the fake pregnancy.
However, someone started from Jingren Palace, clearly wanting to bring up what happened in the past.
Shi Qing saw that the queen could not control her emotions. The queen, who seemed as calm as a chrysanthemum, finally could not sit still anymore. However, the play had just begun, so there was no reason to end it.
She asked Su Peisheng to take out the prescription. After reading the prescription, she knelt down with a thud and said coldly.
"Your Majesty, the prescription contains Chinese rhubarb, morning glory seeds, cinnamon bark, Chinese aconite root, and a small amount of musk, cloves, and other herbs.
If ordinary people use it by mistake, it will not cause any harm, but it is of no benefit to pregnant women, and those with weak bodies may have miscarriage.
Even if she makes it to the birthing day, she will still die from hemorrhage, Your Majesty!
Someone wants to harm Huan'er, and this matter cannot be let go."
