Chapter Twenty-Five: Happy Pulse?
"How's the side concubine?" Feng Sui ignored Xia Yuke and stared at Caidie coldly, as if he wanted to dig out the flesh on his body.
"The side concubine is pregnant, and the imperial doctor has knocked on it, but it's just ......," Caidie said tremblingly.
Feng Sui was surprised and delighted when he heard Caidie's words, and instantly understood Xia Yuke's worries, and at this time he couldn't wait to slap his two big mouths: "It's just that the side concubine is afraid that the fetus will be killed if the child doesn't sit firmly, right?" ”
"But you shouldn't have to hide this from me! I won't harm my children. Saying that, Feng Sui helped Xia Yuke up.
Xia Yuke said: "The concubine body should not hide it from His Royal Highness, but the concubine body wants to wait for the fetal statue to sit firmly before telling His Highness, otherwise His Highness's temperament will definitely call the imperial doctor to ask for pulse, water-like supplements, His Highness will always think, with you to protect the concubine, you will not let others hurt me and hurt my children." ”
Feng Sui instantly knew Xia Yuke's worries: "But Lone protected you for a while, and when Lone was not there, ......"
Xia Yuke got up and saluted: "Your Highness Mingjian." ”
Feng Sui helped her up: "Sit, don't kneel without moving, your body is precious now!" Then he thought about it and said, "What if you want to serve and sleep?" How is the concubine going to deal with loneliness? ”
This question stumped Xia Yuke, but he couldn't hide it, so he pursed his lips and laughed.
This little unpleasantness was pulled from the minds of the two into the "recycle bin".
"I'll tell you something!" Feng Sui suddenly said very seriously.
Xia Yuke saw that Feng Sui became serious, so he thought that there was something important on a regular basis: "Painting screen, you go and inform the small kitchen to prepare a few more plates of delicious food and bring them over, the concubine and His Royal Highness always have something to eat." Ling'er, you go to the inner hall to clean up, Your Highness will stay overnight. ”
"Your Highness, it's cold outside, let's go into the house!" Glaring back at Caidie, "You follow, serve outside the hall." ”
Caidie murmured, "Yes, Niangniang." ”
The two of them pulled into the inner hall, but this time it was different from usual, this time it was Feng Sui who helped Xia Yuke into the house.
"The day before yesterday, Lone went out for a training visit, Concubine Xian sent a leg to assassinate Lone, but the assassination failed, and Lone's line at Concubine Xian's place came to report today, saying that Concubine Xian united several ministers to make me miserable in front of her father tomorrow. What do you think of Concubine Ai? ”
"See the next one?" Xia Yuke was stunned for a moment, and then understood in a trance.
"Since I am participating in this world, the subjects of the world all praise the lonely and love the people like sons, and even some local people call Long live His Royal Highness the Prince!"
"But how can the word 'long live' be affordable by His Royal Highness today, no wonder the ministers will listen to her as a harem woman." Xia Yuke suddenly realized!
"Concubine Ai is waiting to watch the show!" Feng Sui smiled and took Xia Yuke to the dormitory for dinner.
After dinner, it goes without saying......
And so the days passed......
On this day, a small servant suddenly came at the door and patted the door anxiously and said: "Concubine Xia, the crown princess was punished by Concubine Xian to kneel in the lotus pond!" ”
Hearing this, Xia Yuke raised his head and asked, "Do you know why?" ”
The little maid paused and said: "I heard that it was because of a palace maid, it seems that it was because this palace maid collided with Concubine Xian, but Niangniang thought that it was the princess who hit it." ”
Xia Yuke sneered: "The two of them were in the same mood to trouble me a few days ago, I didn't expect to fight so quickly, go and take a look, it's always a matter of the East Palace."
When I walked over, I saw a lot of people gathered here from a distance, with the crown princess Song Yao kneeling on the ground, and two palace maids.
One of them, who was beaten with a blue nose and swollen face.
When Concubine Xian saw her coming, she smiled and said, "Concubine Xia is also here." ”
Xia Yuke just didn't hear this sentence and asked Concubine Xian to say goodbye as usual: "Niangniang Wan'an!" ”
"Come on, the province said that I bullied the people of your East Palace, yes" Concubine Xian said coldly, turning her head away from her.
The picture screen on the side leaned over and whispered: "Miss, this palace maid has served you before." ”
Xia Yuke was a little puzzled, frowned and glanced at the palace maid kneeling on the ground several times, only to find out that it was Huazhu who was serving her during the draft. Before Xia Yuke could speak, a eunuch shouted: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has arrived!" Her Royal Highness the Princess has arrived! ”
Everyone knelt down and saluted!
The prince said, "Get up, all of you!" ”
"Ah, blood, there is blood......" Feng Ying said, pointing to Song Yao's skirt.
For a while, everyone leaned over to look, and between the lightning and flint, Song Yao fell to the ground, "Ah, my belly, my stomach ......"
"Hurry up and go to Imperial Doctor Xuan," Feng Sui hurriedly said, "Carry everyone to the Prince's Mansion." ”
Xia Yuke frowned and glanced at the painting screen behind her, seeing that her expression was as usual, but she was faintly uneasy in her heart.
Everything happened so fast just now that he didn't have time to see it clearly, Song Yao was next to her, it stands to reason that as long as she didn't fall by herself, it was her, "Hua Zhu", her own palace maid, as well as Concubine Xian and her palace maid, one of them pushed her.
Everyone stayed in the side hall of the East Palace, and when they saw people coming in, they shouted together, "See the emperor." The emperor was also bored in his heart, waved his hand and sat down in the top position, and asked, "How is it?" ”
Feng Ying was obviously also a little shocked: "Back to my father, the imperial doctor is already treating him, and the other sons and brothers are not clear, Concubine Xian and Concubine Xia were present at that time." ”
The emperor asked, "Then tell me what the situation was, Concubine Xian?"
Concubine Xian said: "Back to the emperor, the concubine only knows the ...... of the crown princess" Speaking of this, Concubine Xian raised her head and glanced at Xia Yuke and continued: "She fell suddenly, and the concubine didn't see it clearly, but it was Concubine Xia who was next to her at that time." ”
Xia Yuke secretly said in her heart that it was not good, she knew that she was in trouble.
I don't know if this is a coincidence or a thoughtful design, one link after another, whether Song Yao is pregnant or not, whether she knows it or not, this is a good calculation of the time, and the child is counted on her head.
Without waiting for Xia Yuke to stand up and speak, the imperial doctor walked out of it, "Back to the emperor, the princess is still young, and the ministers are incompetent, ask the emperor for forgiveness!" ”
No matter what everyone thinks in their hearts, they only make a sad attitude when they hear the words.
When the queen first heard that the crown princess's fetus could not be saved, she couldn't help but feel a little regretful, adjusted her emotions, wiped her tears with a handkerchief, and said, "Your Majesty, the princess is ...... her."
The queen is naturally not the only one who knows how to do the best, the wall is down and everyone pushes it, there are no eternal enemies, only common interests.
Concubine Xian saw the slight change in the queen's face, so she said weakly: "Concubine Xia, she may not mean it......"
Song Meiren also said: "Yes, Concubine Xia is still young, but I'm afraid that she is lively and eager, and she didn't ......think about it."
"You've all seen it with your own eyes?" Feng Sui didn't wait for her to finish, and said coldly.
The queen saw that the emperor was expressionless, her pupils were dark, she couldn't guess his thoughts, and she didn't dare to say it too directly, "The palace maid who bumped into Concubine Xian before served Concubine Xia before. ”
Feng Sui believed in Xia Yuke, but this was not the time to come out, although Feng Ying, who was standing on the side, did not have a deep relationship with Xia Yuke, but in just a few contacts, he also knew Xia Yuke's personality.
Feng Ying stood up and said: "Father, but the sons don't think it's Concubine Xia, there were many people at that time, even if Song Yao fell, it doesn't mean that it must be Concubine Xia's fault, maybe it's someone else, after all, Concubine Xia is not the only one standing there." ”
For a moment, no one spoke......
After a long time, the emperor didn't know what he was thinking, so he raised his head and asked Xia Yuke, "Do you have anything to say?" ”
Xia Yuke walked out, knelt on the ground, lowered his head and said, "Back to the emperor, although Erchen was standing beside Sister Song at that time, he didn't see what was going on, but ......"
Speaking of this, he looked up at Feng Sui, looked at each other, and continued: "Erchen definitely didn't push Sister Song. ”
"Nonsense, you pushed it, you killed my child......" Suddenly, Song Yao ran out of the inner room and pointed at Xia Yuke and said.
"Father, father wants to be the master of his son...... Father, the children of the sons and daughters are wronged......"
"Take it down, cry and cry," the emperor waved his hand impatiently.
Song Meiren walked over and motioned to the palace maid and eunuch next to her, "Have a good rest, the emperor will definitely make decisions for you." ”
There is no exact witness, and even if there is a witness, what he said may not be true, and the most important thing in the palace is to be framed.
"Your Majesty, look at this ......" The queen seems to be very embarrassed, otherwise send those palace maids to ask? .
The emperor nodded and said, "That's fine, Sui'er, you go and let people bring those palace maids up." ”
Feng Sui heard the words and said: "Yes, father"
After a while, Awu came in with the previous palace maid
Under the emperor's instructions, since the queen couldn't say one thing clearly, she directly asked another thing: "Tell me, what was the situation at that time, why did the crown princess rush and hit the virtuous concubine?" It's better to confess your guilt as you know what will happen. ”
Hua Zhu has already been tortured, and when she heard the words, she shrank and said: "The slave doesn't know who rushed and who she hit, I only know that it was the slave who hit the virtuous concubine at that time, and the princess protected the slave and the maid and bumped into the virtuous concubine, and the virtuous concubine punished the slave and maid for kneeling, and the princess wanted to protect the slave and the maid, so she quarreled with the virtuous concubine, and let the princess also punish her for kneeling, the slave and the maid really didn't know that the princess was pregnant, and asked the emperor for forgiveness!" ”
"Since you don't say it, it's just that you collided with Concubine Xian, it's also a capital crime, come on, drag it down." The queen said with a wave of her hand.
Hua Zhu said again and again: "Tell me, the slaves and maids all say." He glanced up at Xia Yuke and said, "Master, please let go of the slave and maid's family for the sake of the slave and maid's loyal protection of the master." ”
As he spoke, he slammed into the pillar, and immediately broke his head and bled out, killing him instantly.
The queen and the others covered their mouths with handkerchiefs and waved their hands, and someone dragged the body out, and after a while, the ground was also cleaned.
If it weren't for the smell of blood in the air, I wouldn't have known that a person had just died here a few minutes ago.
When a man dies, there is no way to cure him
"Concubine Xia, what else do you have to say?" The queen asked,
Xia Yuke looked at Feng Sui quietly and said: "Erchen has nothing to say, if he wants Erchen to die to prove his innocence, Erchen is willing to die." ”
Feng Sui frowned and said, "Father, the son believes in Concubine Xia, and besides, this child has yet to be verified." ”
The queen frowned and said, "Sui'er, what do you say, what do you mean to be verified?"
Feng Sui said: "That's it...... Erchen has never had that aspect with Song Yao, how could she get pregnant? Besides, the side concubine is pregnant, and if she is not afraid of ridicule, her son takes care of the side concubine every day, this is the son's first child for fear of an accident. ”
When the queen heard this, she was overjoyed and angry, and said, "Sui'er, what you said is true? ”
When the emperor heard this, he was not calm, and hurriedly said: "Someone came to call the imperial doctor just now!" ”
After a while, Ah Wu led the imperial doctor in, and the imperial doctor hurriedly asked for peace: "Your Majesty Wan'an!" ”
The emperor asked, "If the widow asks you, you can tell the truth, otherwise the widow will have you on your head!" ”
Concubine Xian was not calm at this time, and thought, didn't this Song Yao tell her that she had a skin-to-skin kiss with the prince! Have you been lying to her?
The imperial doctor was also panicked at this time, he was so helpful to him because of the benefits of Concubine Xian and the crown princess, and the princess promised her that there would be no problems, what should I do?
When the emperor saw that the imperial doctor did not speak, he said: "If the widow is asking you, you will answer truthfully, otherwise, hum!" ”
The imperial doctor cowered and said: "Back to the emperor, the minister has checked, and the princess is indeed happy." ”
The emperor said, "Okay, you can wait on the side." ”
The emperor turned to Feng Sui and said, "Sui'er, you go and call the imperial doctor in the palace." ”
Feng Sui: "Yes, Erchen will send someone to invite him." ”
So Feng Sui sent someone to ask for a doctor.
The emperor shouted, "Someone has come to bring the crown princess." ”
After only seeing it for a while, she saw Song Yao being helped in, and she thought that the emperor was in a hurry to see her because he wanted to avenge her and let her see it with her own eyes, but she didn't know that she was walking towards the abyss step by step.
