Chapter 916
The Empress Dowager stood outside the delivery room like an ant on a hot pan, her inner anxiety like a surging tide, wave after wave crashing against her usually calm heart.
She got up and paced back and forth outside the delivery room.
They couldn't help but complain about the hidden conspiracies and schemes within the palace. Who was so heartless as to dare to harm Consort De?
"If I find out, I will tear him to pieces!"
It has been a long time since such a plot to harm the imperial heirs has occurred in the imperial harem.
"Investigate this matter immediately for me."
Granny Su had already investigated and identified several people.
"Your Majesty, the Empress's food is always prepared with great care. I have checked it several times, but today's bird's nest porridge seems to have been made incorrectly. It was originally prepared for Madam Yun, but for some reason, it was switched."
They simply checked the imperial kitchen for poison.
When it arrived, the stew pot was sealed with clay.
The purpose of this is to prevent anyone from touching the bird's nest porridge during the process and poisoning it.
This method has always been very effective.
"Who knew... that the bird's nest soup bowl would be switched?"
So, the other party wanted to poison Madam Yun?
The Empress Dowager was shocked and quickly sent someone to check on Fu Ning Palace, lest something happen to Lady Yun, she would have no way to explain it to the Emperor and Empress.
At the same time, she silently prayed, hoping that Consort De would be blessed by heaven and that Nan Yin could truly use her magic to ensure the safety of mother and child.
Every passing second felt like a dull knife slowly tearing at her heart, testing her patience and composure, her mind filled with fear and anxiety about the unknown situation in the delivery room.
With Nan Yin's full assistance, a clear and melodious cry, like heavenly music, broke the suffocating tension in Yongning Palace.
"Your Majesty, Consort De has successfully given birth to a princess."
Princess?
The Empress Dowager had someone examine him, and they insisted it was a prince!
How did she become a princess?
The Empress Dowager was somewhat disappointed.
She had always hoped to have a prince, and although she already had three princes, all three were very healthy.
But the Empress Dowager secretly hoped to have a few more princes.
"How is Consort De?" The Empress Dowager didn't even ask to bring her over to see.
It's clear how much they dislike it.
"Both the little princess and Consort De are still suffering from lingering poisoning, so they cannot come out to see the Empress Dowager for the time being," the imperial physician reported after examining them.
"The poison has stabilized. Only the legendary doctor with the 'ghost hands' can cure it."
In the delivery room, the little princess's rosy face resembled a peach blossom in early spring.
Nan Yin let out a long, weary sigh, her body swaying slightly as if she had used up all her strength.
"Your Majesty, please rest first! We can discuss anything else after Her Majesty the Empress returns to the capital," he instructed.
Qi Yumin glanced at the child, nodded, and finally fell into a deep sleep.
......
"Because I was poisoned?" Madam Yun seemed incredulous.
Someone actually wanted to harm her.
"The bird's nest was secretly switched by the guards," a maid from the Yun family whispered.
They have people in the palace.
They were all acting on the orders of the family head to protect Lady Yun and the three princes; they didn't care about anyone else.
We mustn't alert them; the only option is to switch to a different bird's nest porridge.
Unfortunately, the bird's nest porridge was delivered to Yongning Palace.
Madam Yun asked, "Are the child and Consort De alright?"
"Nanyin has been stabilized from the poison. She is fine for now, and is said to be a princess."
When Nan Yin returned, Madam Yun couldn't help but ask.
"Who does that child look like?"
