Mrs. Cui was so shocked that she didn't care about checking Cui Jingshi's situation, so she quickly knelt on the ground and confessed to the queen.

Cui Jingshi's move can be described as a loss of honor in front of the palace, and it is a big taboo.

Based on this alone, the queen is already merciful if she does not blame her, and she must have no chance to choose a concubine.

Seeing this scene, the girls next to them showed relieved expressions.

After all, with Cui Jingshi's identity and talent, she is the most powerful contender among the nobles present.

Now that she is out, the chances of others being selected are much greater, and they are naturally happy.

The queen was lenient and did not blame Cui Jingshi for her faux pas, but was concerned: "How is Miss Cui?" ”

Cui Jingshi was about to reply, but as soon as she opened her mouth, she felt her stomach churning so badly that she almost vomited again, and hurriedly covered her mouth with a handkerchief.

Mrs. Cui replied for her with a ashamed face: "Queen Xie cares, the little girl is just intolerant of the heat, and it is fine." ”

Although Mrs. Cui explained like this, Cui Jingshi's face was really ugly, her face was sallow, her spirit was sorrowful, and she looked sick.

These ladies were all summoned to the palace by the queen, and if something happened, she also had an unshirkable responsibility.

So, the queen said: "Imperial Doctor Xuan." ”

Mrs. Cui hurriedly excused herself: "Queen Mother, don't be so troublesome. ”

The queen soothed: "Mrs. Cui should not be polite, although it is just contaminated with the heat, it can be big or small, and it must not be neglected." ”

As he spoke, the Imperial Physician had arrived.

The queen ordered Cui Jingshi's mother and daughter to be taken to the side hall, and the imperial doctor treated her.

Zhen Yu whispered to Yan Ran: "Cui Jingshi really let go in order to marry the second prince, she is sick like this, and she has to come to participate in the selection of concubines." But now that she has lost her honor in front of the palace, she has not only lost her qualifications for selection, but also damaged her reputation, isn't it worth the loss? ”

Yan Ran smiled and didn't say anything.

After Cui Jingshi left the table, the banquet continued.

Two more girls wrote poems in turn, and the queen was very satisfied.

At this time, Fang took Cui Jingshi's mother and daughter to the palace maid in the side hall and returned, walked to the queen's side, and whispered to her.

The queen nodded slightly as she listened, and the smile on her face remained unchanged.

But Yan Ran found that her eyes were suddenly much sharper.

After listening to the palace maid's message, the queen got up and said to everyone: "There are some urgent palace affairs in this palace that need to be dealt with, please wait for a while, and come to this palace when you go." ”

All the ladies hurriedly got up and sent off the queen.

Zhen Yu's curiosity was aroused, and he said to Yan Ran: "Sister Yan, maybe something interesting will happen, let's go and take a look!" ”

Yan Ran had this intention, so he followed Zhen Yu.

Seeing that there were two little tails behind her, the queen pretended to be displeased and rebuked Zhen Zhen and said, "What are you doing here, go back and eat your meal!" ”

"Oh."

Zhen Yu responded obediently and stopped.

After the queen and her party entered the side hall, she pulled Yan Ran and quietly followed, hiding outside the hall to peek at the excitement.

The queen walked in, and several people in the hall knelt down and saluted together.

The little eunuchs worked together to bring a prince's chair, and after the queen sat down, she looked at the imperial doctor and asked, "Imperial Doctor Chang, are you guilty?" ”

Doctor Chang was asked about the crime, but he didn't dare to raise his head, but his voice was sonorous and powerful: "The minister doesn't know what the crime is?" ”

The queen said coldly: "You have diagnosed a slippery pulse for a lady who has not yet come out of the cabinet, ruining people's reputation, and you dare to ask what is the crime?" ”

Doctor Chang knelt on the ground and kowtowed, and replied without humility or arrogance: "Queen Mother, the minister has studied medicine since childhood, and has been practicing medicine for more than ten years, but it is just a slippery pulse, how can it be wrong?" If Mrs. Cui and Miss Cui have any doubts, they can ask other doctors to come for a follow-up! ”

Zhen Yu couldn't understand what he meant, and asked Yan Ran quietly, "Sister Yan, what is a slippery vein?" ”

Yan Ran replied softly: "Happy pulse." ”

"What?"

Zhen Yuden was shocked, almost screamed, and hurriedly covered his mouth, with an indescribable expression: "Cui Jingshi is happy?" Then she ......"

The impact of this incident on Zhen Yu was too great, so she didn't know what to say for a while.

Yan Ran silently paid attention to the movement in the room and did not speak.

The queen in the house didn't speak, but just moved her gaze to the Cui family's mother and daughter, and her gaze was extremely cold.

Doctor Chang swears so much, it is true that he wants to come to this slippery pulse.

If Cui Jingshi really married someone with a pearl, it would be a bad thing, and she dared to participate in the selection of concubines with an unclean body, which was an insult to the royal family.

This sin of disrespect is not something she can afford alone.

Mrs. Cui was so frightened that she immediately kowtowed and begged for mercy: "Queen Mother Mingjian!" The little girl is just contaminated with some heat and stomach discomfort, how can she button off a hat so big that she is pregnant, this is to force her to die! It is clear that this quack doctor has diagnosed the wrong pulse, and the blood is spurting people! ”

In the face of Mrs. Cui's accusation, Imperial Physician Chang was also quite angry, and replied: "The minister dare not assert what Miss Cui's conduct is, but the minister dares to guarantee with his life, this pulse is indeed a slippery pulse!" ”

Everyone didn't expect that Imperial Physician Chang's attitude would be so tough, and even Mrs. Cui was shocked, and her heart hesitated, and her momentum decreased sharply.

The queen groaned for a moment and asked Cui Jingshi, "Miss Cui, what do you think, do you need the palace to summon other imperial doctors to treat you?" ”

The queen was so tolerant and generous, saving Cui Jingshi enough face.

If Cui Jingshi is upright, she can ask the imperial doctor to consult to prove her innocence; But if she has a ghost in her heart, she will find an excuse to refuse.

In any case, this matter is not confirmed, and it can temporarily maintain its clean reputation.

Cui Jingshi only panicked for a moment after learning that she had a happy pulse, and then came the joy of being determined to win.

Cui Jingshi's face was calm and calm, and she asked the queen: "Queen Mother, the courtiers dare to ask you to hold your back, the courtiers have something to say to you alone." ”

Mrs. Cui thought that Cui Jingshi would defend herself in a righteous and strict manner, but what was her ambiguous attitude?

Mrs. Cui's heart suddenly chuckled, and a bad premonition swelled.

The queen was also curious about Cui Jingshi's attitude, so she withdrew from everyone according to what she said.

Yan Ran and Zhen Yu were outside the hall, and they didn't have time to dodge, so they had to cover their ears and steal the bell to look at the sky.

When Mrs. Cui saw that there were two people listening to the corner outside, she felt even more angry, and she didn't have a good face.

What Cui Jingshi said to the queen, no one knows.

But soon, the queen passed on the will and ordered someone to summon the second prince.

Zhen Yu couldn't understand this trend, and said strangely: "Cui Jingshi is pregnant, what is the second prince of Xuan doing?" Could it be that the two of them ......"

Zhen Yu paused suddenly, stunned by his own speculation.

Yan Ran gently squeezed Zhen Zhen's hand, and said lightly: "Don't be impatient for a while, wait and see what happens." ”

Because today is the choice of concubines for Xiao Zun, although there is a queen to check it, he also has to look at each other and make the final decision.

So Xiao Zun was originally waiting in the nearby palace, and when he was summoned by the queen, he arrived quickly, followed by Wen Rongan and Su Yu.

After all, his marriage is closely related to his great cause, and Wen Rongan and Su Yu, as his henchmen, also want to make suggestions for his choices today.

Yan Ran and Zhen Yu already knew the inside story, so they simply followed up generously and continued to join in the fun.

Although the queen glanced at Zhen Zhen reproachfully, she didn't say anything at all.

Although the little eunuch who went to summon him did not explain the ins and outs to Xiao Zun, Xiao Zun had already learned the inside story through other channels.

Yes, as soon as Xiao Zun entered the palace, he said to the queen: "Queen Mother, it just so happens that Yunzhi is also there, why don't you let him take the pulse of Miss Cui!" ”

Su Yu has a reputation as a little miracle doctor, and the queen still trusts his medical skills very much, so she nodded in approval.

Su Yu stepped forward to check Cui Jingshi's pulse, which took a long time, and finally came to the conclusion: "Miss Cui is not a happy pulse. ”

As soon as Su Yu said this, before Cui Jingshi could react, Imperial Physician Chang first expressed his dissatisfaction: "Master Su, this is obviously a slippery pulse, how can you say that it is not?" ”

Su Yu explained: "Miss Cui is indeed a good slippery pulse, but there are many kinds of slippery pulses, not slippery pulses or happy pulses. ”

Doctor Chang retorted: "Master Su, although you became famous as a young man, you have little experience. I have been a doctor for more than ten years, and I have diagnosed not thousands but hundreds. Whether this slippery pulse is a happy pulse or not, I will know as soon as I take it, and I will never make a mistake. ”

Mrs. Cui originally listened to Su Yu's words, and felt relieved, but she was blocked by Chang Taiyi, and said angrily: "Chang Taiyi, your medical skills are not good, and you have diagnosed the wrong pulse and admit it, so why bother with strong words?" ”

Doctor Chang was most reluctant to be questioned about his poor medical skills, and insisted: "Since I have different diagnoses from Su Gongzi, I also ask the queen to summon the Tai Hospital to come for a consultation!" ”

The queen was also a little depressed, she didn't expect things to develop to this point.

Because Imperial Physician Chang was sure that Cui Jingshi was pregnant, Cui Jingshi had already admitted that she was secretly married to Xiao Zunzhu, and the flesh and blood in her womb were royal blood.

But suddenly, Su Yu overturned the previous conclusion and said that Cui Jingshi was not pregnant at all.

The queen didn't know whose words to believe.

It stands to reason that the Tai Hospital should be convened now to consult Cui Jingshi to find out whether she is pregnant or not, and then think about it in the long run.

But it is about the private relationship between Xiao Zun and Cui Jingshi, and the face of the royal family, so it's better not to make a big fuss about this matter.

The queen sighed helplessly, and said to Doctor Chang: "Doctor Chang is a little restless, go outside and wait for ...... first."

Before the queen finished her words, Cui Jingshi suddenly knelt on the ground and pleaded: "The queen, the courtiers ask for a consultation for the courtiers from the Tai Hospital." ”

The queen was stunned, she didn't expect Cui Jingshi to suddenly make such a request.

Xiao Zun said: "Queen Mother, it is a matter of Miss Cui's reputation, and this matter should indeed be investigated as soon as possible, and Miss Cui should be innocent." ”

Cui Jingshi originally thought that Xiao Zun was here to support her, but after listening to it for a long time, she found that Xiao Zun was obviously shirking responsibility, and she still didn't want to admit her relationship with her at this point.

Cui Jingshi felt cold, raised her eyes to look at Xiao Zun, and sneered: "Innocent? Didn't my innocence have already been given to His Second Highness? ”

As soon as Cui Jingshi's words came out, it could be described as a thunderstorm.

Everyone was shocked and silent.

Xiao Zun's eyes narrowed slightly, and he smiled coldly: "Miss Cui, what do you mean?" ”
