Chapter 594 - 594-A Cicada in Winter
Xiao Ning held Xiao Baoxin’s hand tightly, treating her as a life-saving straw. Without much effort, Xichun took the daily life note from the female historian. Sure enough, it was the imperial doctor who had gone to Jiaofang Hall to check for a safe pulse before the new year. About a month, less than two months.
Imperial Physician Liu knew very well that Imperial Physician Zhou had probably figured it out.
However, the reason why it was not reported was rather interesting.
The Imperial Academy of Medicine was a neutral place and rarely participated in political competitions. Some were blind and got involved because of wealth. Even if they won, they would inevitably be punished.
At the very least, he had no chance to be a doctor for generations.
In the chaotic times of the previous dynasty, there was no lack of people who chased fame and fortune. In the end, their families were destroyed and their people died. From then on, that person’s family was abandoned by the new dynasty and their clansmen were not allowed to practice medicine.
The imperial family of Daliang had always been wary of the Imperial Academy of Medicine, and they were extremely strict with it.
All these years, the Imperial Academy of Medicine had always maintained the attitude of ’don’t bother me’. They didn’t want to be the scapegoat. They didn’t care about the outside world and only wanted to save those who needed to be saved. Some of them couldn’t even match up to who was in the court.
Imperial Physician Zhou was very familiar with Imperial Physician Yang. His medical skills were superb, especially in gynecology and typhoid.
It was not impossible to feel a small slippery pulse.
Imperial Physician Liu shut his mouth tightly, not revealing any special intentions.
No matter who it was, anyone who had the guts to target the Empress was not someone he, a small imperial physician, could contend with. He had better keep his mouth shut and run away if he could.
Someone come.” Xiao Ning was silent for a while before she finally took a deep breath and looked at Nianxia, who had calmed down.
Who knew that Xiao Ning’s glare would cause Nianxia to choke to death again. “Mother…”
Before she could kneel on the ground, Emperor Yong Ping ran into the Jiaofang Palace with his dragon robe, shocking everyone. Their eyeballs almost fell out of their sockets.
Nianxia choked again and fainted from the shock.
Emperor Yongping: Why is he so happy?
“Zitong! Are you pregnant?” The Emperor leaped onto the bed. The people around him did not enter his eyes. They were like air. Only Xiao Baoxin looked at him. Oh, he was still so ostentatious.
“I heard from Xuancheng that there’s still blood. His body was not comfortable Imperial physician, what happened?”
Xiao Ning had been married to Emperor Yong Ping for more than four months, but she had never seen him so happy. His gums were exposed, and he was dancing with joy.
At that time, she couldn’t help but cry.
“What’s wrong?” Emperor Yong Ping was so angry. Did he just lose his child?
He then looked at Xiao Baoxin.
Xiao Baoxin,”What kind of look is that?”
Did she think that she was a demon who would beat up the Empress and cause her to have a miscarriage?
Xiao Ning was also speechless. Damn it, it had affected her crying. Before she could squeeze out her tears, it was interrupted. She couldn’t connect, okay?
“Your Majesty!” She gritted her teeth and her face was contorted.” Your Majesty, you must seek justice for me. Someone…” Someone wants to harm ChenQie.” It was easy to say this.
She was not stupid.
Xiao Baoxin had been pregnant for a month, and he could tell whether it was a man or a woman. Why couldn’t the imperial doctor tell when it came to her?
Even if she was scared, she had to take this opportunity to let the Emperor clear out the people around her and use this opportunity to warn them first.
“Who is it?” Emperor Yong Ping was furious.
Imperial Physician Liu: Don’t look at me. What does it have to do with me?
Whoever was willing to give birth to a prince could do so!
“Reporting to the emperor, should we ask the imperial physician to check the diet and daily clothes in the Empress ‘palace? Just now, the Empress had lost a lot of blood.”Xiao Baoxin remonstrated.
Nianxia, who had just woken up, thought to herself,’Damn it!
She fainted again.
– Alright, this counts as a confession. Xiao Baoxin winked at Xiao Ning.
If he had only heard Nianxia’s voice before, he knew that she had done something to Xiao Ning, but he didn’t know where she did it. Now, he knew that she must have done something to her food and clothes, causing Xiao Ning to have a miscarriage.
The eldest princess of Xuancheng was anxious.” Royal brother, this is your first child. You have to treat it seriously!”
Emperor Yong Ping could also tell at this moment that Xu had not fainted from joy at all. He had fainted from fear after being caught by someone, right?
“Men, dig three feet into the ground and search the entire Jiaofang Palace carefully!”
Duo Fu was Emperor Yong Ping’s trusted eunuch, so he brought the eunuchs of Taiji Palace to inspect the place carefully. Even the palace maids and eunuchs of Jiaofang Palace gathered together to interrogate them.
Emperor Yong Ping held Xiao Ning’s hand tightly, feeling mixed emotions.
It was not easy for her to get a child, but she actually got the first move. Even if one used their butt to think, they would know which families had the qualifications and ability to tamper with it.
“Is the Empress ‘body still tight? Can the child be saved?” Emperor Yong Ping stared intently at Imperial Physician Liu.
Imperial Physician Liu broke out in a cold sweat.”Your Majesty’s body is weak.
She might have eaten too many blood-activating things…! can only do my best…”
If Xiao Ning had been pretending before, she was now showing her true feelings and crying.
The moment these words came out, there was a 70% to 80% chance of a miscarriage.
“Bring the judge to Jiaofang Palace and all the imperial physicians
here!”Emperor Yong Ping instructed.
Not long after, the court judge brought six on-duty imperial physicians with him.
Xiao Baoxin didn’t know whether to leave or stay. He went to the side hall with the eldest princess of Xuancheng to rest. When he heard the news again, Duo Fu had already escorted Nian Xia out of the main hall. Under the sunlight, Nian Xia’s face was pale and his lips were trembling.
In the end, Xiao Ning didn’t see Xiao Baoxin again, and Emperor Yong Ping didn’t even let him see Xuancheng.
Empress Xiao’s blow had been too great and she had already stopped.
“Lady, who do you think it is?” Xuan Cheng whispered into Xiao Baoxin’s
ear,””Did someone really attack Aunty?”
Until now, Xuan Cheng was only suspicious.
“There are only a few families that need to take action.”She extended four fingers at Xuan Cheng.
Fourth Concubine.
Those who have the ability to do so, but those who have no grudges with the Empress, there is no need for them, nor is it worth it. The four concubines who entered the palace to serve the emperor were different. Each of them came from an aristocratic family. The family had the ability and needs.
At least in the case of the eldest son, whoever had the advantage was very likely to have the upper hand.
Therefore, only the few families who had entered the palace and were conferred consorts had the need to do so. Moreover, they had the ability to cover up the sky with one hand and even hide it from the empress and emperor.
Xiao Ning knew very well that if Xiao Baoxin hadn’t made a mountain out of a molehill and called the imperial physician, the child in her belly would have come quietly. If it didn’t, it would have come quietly. She would just take it as a small life and not take it seriously.
Xiao Ning was afraid.
For the first time, she was as quiet as a cicada in the harem.
She didn’t even know who was behind this. Any one of the four concubines was possible, and any one of them had the ability.. That person knew everything about her like the back of his hand, but she didn’t even know who the person who wanted to harm her was!
