Chapter Eighty-Three: The Imperial Heir
"The queen mother, the concubine's daughter's body, how can such a country doctor touch it?"
"The queen mother, the dragon fetus of the concubine mother, has always been in charge of me and Imperial Doctor Lu, if the queen mother has any questions about the imperial heir, you can come and ask the two of us."
Imperial Physician Zhang said, holding a copy of Sheng Guifei's pulse case these days.
handed the pulse case to Dr. Hu, and Dr. Hu looked at it.
"Queen Niangniang, since the concubine Niangniang was pregnant, her body has been a little unwell, and she has always been seriously ill and minor in the past two days, and I and Imperial Doctor Lu have prescribed medicine to the concubine Niangniang."
"If the concubine takes this prescription, in just a few days, the condition of the concubine will definitely be alleviated."
At this time, it was still Imperial Doctor Zhang who had just spoken.
Empress Zhao has also heard of this Imperial Doctor Zhang of the Tai Hospital, and I heard that the medical skills of the Imperial Doctor Zhang are the best in the entire Tai Hospital.
and is also one of Sheng Guifei's henchmen.
got the grace of Sheng Guifei, and showed off his power in the Tai Hospital all day long, and he didn't even want to take the judgment of the Tai Hospital in his eyes.
"Imperial Doctor Zhang, Dr. Hu was personally invited in from outside the palace at the behest of the Empress Dowager's mother."
"If the concubine doesn't believe what the concubine said, she can go to the Baoying Palace in Shangqing in person, see the queen mother and her old man, and ask her the old man in person, but I don't know if the concubine went to see the queen mother for such a trivial matter, will it disturb the queen mother and her old man's Qingxiu?"
Miao Niangzi had a faint smile on her face, so she opened her mouth for Queen Zhao and relieved the siege.
Sheng Guifei was silent, and looked at Miao Niangzi in front of her with a sneer.
Seeing that Concubine Sheng had never opened her mouth to defend herself, Miao Niangzi looked at Dr. Hu in front of her, so she introduced Dr. Hu's medical skills to Concubine Sheng.
"Dr. Hu is outside, and he is also a well-known gynecological saint. The Empress Dowager knew that the concubine was unwell these days, so he asked a doctor and another doctor. ”
"Seeing that the imperial doctor of the Tai Hospital couldn't see the illness of the concubine, the queen mother told Aunt Fu and invited Dr. Hu to come over to see the concubine."
Miao Niangzi said this to Concubine Sheng, and turned her head to Doctor Hu beside her.
"Doctor Hu will go forward and take a good look at the concubine! Look at the lesion of the concubine Niangniang, where is it?"
Doctor Hu got the order, bowed to Sheng Guifei who was lying on the couch, and walked up.
Concubine Sheng still didn't speak, and glanced at the maids waiting in the hall, asking them not to come forward to stop them, and let Doctor Hu come up to check her pulse.
As Miao Niangzi said, Dr. Hu was specially invited into the palace by the Queen Mother.
Therefore, if Sheng Guifei is unwilling to let Dr. Hu see a doctor, Sheng Guifei will indirectly offend the Empress Dowager Li, who invited Dr. Hu into the palace.
Although the Empress Dowager Li doesn't care about things and has retired to the Baoying Palace in Shangqing, in the end, the Empress Dowager Li is still the mother of the official family, and even if the official family sees the Queen Mother, she is also commensurate with the queen mother.
The official family has always been benevolent and filial, and the queen mother is supported by the world.
Offending the Queen Mother is equivalent to offending the official family.
Such a stupid thing, Sheng Guifei will not do it for the time being.
Imperial Physician Zhang didn't dare to act rashly at this time, so he could only look at the doctor Hu who was invited into the palace from outside the palace to see the concubine.
I saw that there was nothing wrong with the concubine's face.
Could it be that the concubine already has a plan in her heart?
Imperial Physician Zhang originally wanted to ask the concubine Niangniang, but he was afraid that there were still others in the house, so he closed his mouth.
"Since it is the Queen Mother who has Aunt Fu invited the doctor from outside for the palace, let this doctor come over and take a look for the palace! It is also good to let the palace know that in the end, it is the doctors of the palace hospital who should be more refined in their medical skills, or the medical skills of Dr. Hu outside the palace. ”
Sheng Guifei smiled at Empress Zhao and Miao Niangzi, and said.
Hearing what Concubine Sheng said, Empress Zhao immediately told Doctor Hu.
"Doctor Hu, since the concubine has said so, please ask Doctor Hu to take a good look at Concubine Sheng!"
After that, Dr. Hu had already knelt beside Sheng Guifei's bed, put one hand on Sheng Guifei's pulse, and began to diagnose the pulse.
"The queen mother, the concubine Niangniang's pregnancy has been more than three months, if it is another half a month, presumably by that time, the fetal image will become more and more stable."
As soon as Dr. Hu said this, not only Queen Zhao was shocked, but even Miao Niangzi and Aunt Fu on the side were also shocked.
What the hell is going on?
Could it be that Concubine Sheng is really pregnant?
Empress Zhao couldn't believe her ears, and asked Dr. Hu again.
"Doctor Hu, have you read carefully? The concubine is pregnant, is it really three months?"
Doctor Hu leaned down, knelt on the ground in front of Empress Zhao, and replied one by one.
"Back to the queen's mother, where does the villain dare to deceive the queen. The concubine Niangniang's pregnancy has indeed been more than three months, and after some time, the fetal image of the concubine Niangniang will be stable. ”
Listening to Dr. Hu repeat Fang Cai's words again, Empress Zhao was stunned and didn't react for a moment.
It was Miao Niangzi who pushed Queen Zhao, and Queen Zhao reacted.
glanced at Concubine Sheng who was lying on the couch, and said to Dr. Hu, who was still kneeling on the ground.
"Since Dr. Hu said that the concubine is three months pregnant, the concubine will stay in the palace honestly these days, right? Not only can you not go anywhere, but you have to pay attention to your diet these days. ”
As soon as Empress Zhao's words fell, she explained to the palace maids and grandmothers who were waiting in the house, and she was optimistic about Concubine Sheng's womb.
Empress Zhao and her entourage returned to Kunning Palace.
Yu Niangzi got the news and followed Queen Zhao back to Kunning Palace.
"Explain it well! Is Sheng Guifei really pregnant, or is she fake pregnant to compete for favor?"
Mrs. Yu knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Queen Zhao vigorously.
"Ask the queen for forgiveness! The concubine really didn't know, it turned out that Sheng Guifei was really pregnant. ”
When Yu Niangzi's words fell, she seemed to have thought of something again, and hurriedly stood up and said to Queen Zhao, who was sitting at the top.
"Queen, this is impossible! Absolutely impossible! The official family didn't have a chance to be Sheng Guifei three months ago, how could her pregnancy be three months?"
"The concubine went to the Imperial City Division a few days ago, and transferred Sheng Guifei to record the luck of these days, and found that three months ago, the official family was sick, and there was no one around to serve him, lest he be too sick."
"Although Concubine Sheng went to the palace of the official family that day and accompanied the official family, the official family was weak and did not have sex, so Concubine Sheng's pregnancy was definitely not from the official family."
Empress Zhao didn't believe Yu Niangzi's words this time, so she instructed Xiao Han, went to the Imperial City Division, and recorded the luck of the official family these days.
Empress Zhao searched carefully and found the record of the official family three months ago.
only to find out that the official family was really sick three months ago, and it was not light.
On top of the Lin Xing record, there was also the imperial doctor who saw the official family at that time, and wrote down the pulse case.
According to the analysis of the imperial doctor's pulse, the body of the official family that day was indeed not suitable for intercourse.
It can't be completely ruled out that the official family didn't listen to the imperial doctor's advice and insisted on having sex with Sheng Guifei.
If the official family really didn't have sex with Sheng Guifei, where did the imperial heir in Sheng Guifei's womb come from?
Could it be that it was really Sheng Guifei, who smuggled men from outside the palace into the palace, planning to borrow seeds to have children?
This matter is by no means as simple as it seems on the surface, so it is better to send someone to the Queen Mother first, and see how the Queen Mother plans to decide after hearing it.
If you rashly go directly to Concubine Sheng's Qingning Palace, I am afraid that she will be reversed again.
When the time comes, he bites a few of them, saying that the Lin Xing record taken out by the Imperial City Division is forged, so what can I do?
Xiao Han got the orders of Empress Zhao, and immediately went to the Baoying Palace in Shangqing to ask to see Empress Dowager Li.
In the Buddhist hall behind the Baoying Palace in Shangqing, Empress Dowager Li sat inside, listening to the lectures of several great monks.
"The Queen Mother, Xiao Han next to the Queen Mother came over, saying that the Queen Mother had something extremely important, and asked Xiao Han to come over, and planned to inform the Queen Mother."
Today, Empress Dowager Li invited several great monks to preach the scriptures.
They are all famous monks in the city's Great Xiangguo Temple.
It is rare to enter the palace to preach the scriptures, and the Empress Dowager Li is really unwilling to give up this precious opportunity.
"What is the important thing about the queen, I want Xiaohan to come to see the mourning family in person."
Empress Dowager Li turned her head and asked Aunt Fu, who was waiting behind her.
When asked by Empress Dowager Li, Aunt Fu immediately stammered a little.
"Queen Mother, listening to the meaning of Miss Xiaohan's words, it seems that it is for the imperial heir in the womb of the concubine."
Hearing Aunt Fu say the word "imperial heir", Empress Dowager Li straightened up all of a sudden, and was carried by Aunt Fu, walked out of the meditation room, and went to the small hall next door.
"What happened to the imperial heir in the concubine's womb? Could it be that the concubine is really a fake pregnancy to compete for favor and coax the official family and the mourning family?"
Empress Dowager Li didn't know that Concubine Sheng was pregnant, so she asked.
"The Queen Mother, the noble concubine, is indeed three months pregnant. It was only when the queen mother transferred the file in the hands of the Imperial City Division that she found out that three months ago, the official family had a sudden illness, and the imperial doctor's pulse case said that the official family was not suitable for sex. ”
"But I can't say for sure, whether the official family had sex with Sheng Guifei in the end. The queen couldn't make up her mind, and she didn't dare to go to the Qingning Palace to verify it, so she came to the old slave and asked the queen mother to decide. ”
"If the real official family and Sheng Guifei have not had sex, then Sheng Guifei's womb has been pregnant for three months, this matter is really too strange, and there may be some calculations hidden in it."
Aunt Fu didn't dare to deceive Empress Dowager Li, and gave everything that Xiao Han said to her, 1510, to Empress Dowager Li.
When Empress Dowager Li heard Aunt Fu say this, she also felt that something was faintly wrong about this matter.
"Does the official know about this?"
Mrs. Li's face was faint, and she asked Aunt Fu who was waiting beside her.
"Back to the Empress Dowager's words, the official family does not know about this matter for the time being, these days ago, the government affairs were busy, and the official family convened ministers in the Funing Hall all day long, and it has not been a few days since they set foot in the harem."
Aunt Fu finished talking and asked Empress Dowager Li again
"The Queen Mother wants to inform the official family about this matter?"
Empress Dowager Li's face was full of sadness, and she sighed secretly in her heart, but still said.
"Don't let the officials know about this matter first, and when you go down to find out, it's not too late to find out about the officials when the time comes. Just one point, when you go down to investigate this matter, you must avoid the Imperial City Division. In the Imperial City Division, they are the eyes and ears of the officials. If you're not careful, you'll get the news out. ”
"If you really know that the child in the concubine's womb is not from the official family, it is a wild seed outside, even if the concubine is favored by the sixth palace, it can't be kept, and it is better to get rid of it as soon as possible. The royal bloodline does not allow others to be confused. ”
