Chapter 141: Confining in the Cold Palace
In the silent Hall of Mercy Stars, Lingxi fell to the ground, and Lingxi was gambling on the weight of the dragon heir in his belly in the heart of Emperor Yong'an.
Lingxi knew that she was nothing in Emperor Yong'an's heart, so she could only gamble with this fetus, which had just turned three months. It's her only leverage......
Emperor Yong'an stood on a high place, looked coldly at Lingxi's back, raised his hand and pointed at Lingxi, "I ...... it"
Lingxi groaned, leaned on his lower abdomen and stood upright, his face as pale as paper.
Emperor Yong'an's words were interrupted by Lingxi's moan, and there was a hint of hesitation in his eyes.
A little palace maid ran out of the inner hall, facing Emperor Yong'an Yifu, and said in a trembling voice, "Your Majesty, Concubine Wan Niangniang is awake and wants to see the emperor." β
Emperor Yong'an flicked his sleeves at Lingxi, turned around and went to the dormitory.
Seeing that Emperor Yong'an had entered the inner hall, Lotus Ye took Lingxi into his arms again, and tears slipped down in big drops.
Lingxi leaned on the lotus leaf's shoulder, and looked at the concubines in the hall with his eyes slightly openβthere was no one who did not set his eyes on their master and servant.
The concubine who was closest to her showed a little horror in her eyes; Concubine Ling, who was a little farther away, had resentment in her eyes, most like Lingxi had harmed her. Concubine Yu behind the concubine had a trace of worry in her eyes; And the noble concubine......
There were too many emotions in Xian Gui Concubine's eyes, and Ling Xi saw a little heartache in addition to hatred.
Heartache? There was a hint of sarcasm on Lingxi's face.
Is that heartache the last affection between sisters, or the mercy of the victor for the vanquished?
In fact, only Lingxi herself understood in her heart that she did not lose to the various conspiracies set up by Empress Zhu, nor did she lose to the betrayal of Xian Guifei. What she lost was Emperor Yong'an's true love for Wan Concubine.
Lingxi turned her eyes to look at Concubine Ying, and Concubine Ying's eyes looked at Lingxi, it was to look and explore, as if she didn't believe that Lingxi had been defeated like this.
Concubine Ren was also looking at Lingxi, although she was crying, her eyes were very clear.
Lingxi remembered that when Concubine Ren was in the Spirit Research Hall, she said that she would not help others drag Lingxi into the game, and now it seems that Concubine Ren has done it. Otherwise, how could he kill a noble concubine halfway and catch himself off guard.
However, Lingxi didn't point out that Concubine Ren could help her. Concubine Ren is a smart person, how could she make a feud with Empress Zhu when she was defeated in such a situation? As long as Concubine Ren no longer falls into the well, Lingxi will snicker in her heart.
And Empress Zhu, her eyes fell on Lingxi's lower abdomen, with a deep expression of thought.
Lingxi deliberately pulled the cloak and blocked Queen Zhu's sight, as if the child in her womb would disappear if Queen Zhu looked at it.
'Ding', I don't know where the incense bell is chiming again.
The lotus leaf crawled in Lingxi's ear and said, "Niangniang, it's not going to be three moments." β
Lingxi frowned and whispered, "Yi'er, I'm going to find my mother......"
The lotus leaf hugged the spirit rhino and cried.
"Crying for what?" Lingxi struggled to find a comfortable position in Lotus Ye's arms, protecting his lower abdomen from cold, "It's not time to cry yet." If you start crying now, won't you wash your face with tears in the days to come? β
Lotus Ye hurriedly wiped her tears and stopped her voice.
In fact, Lingxi still had a trace of luck in his heart. She saw the hesitation in Emperor Yong'an's eyes when she was moaning in her lower abdomen, and that hesitation was her lifesaver.
Lingxi's body was very cold, and the warmth that came from the lotus leaf made Lingxi's tense nerves relax a little. Lingxi's thoughts were in a trance again, and she imagined that the warm sun outside the hall was shining on her body, and it was scorching pain. She imagined that in the courtyard of the Lingxi Palace, the five princes were laughing happily under the gardenia tree. Knowing that the wings fluttering and chirping in the tall trees next to the cloister, there is the sweet scent of gardenias in the air......
'Ding'
The spirit rhino shook violently, opened his eyes, and the fragrance of wood hibiscus lingered in his nose.
She looked around and realized where she was. It's not summer at this time, it's not the Lingyan Palace, and there's no Five Princes here......
Seeing Emperor Yong'an coming out of the inner hall, Lotus Ye gently pushed the spirit rhino. Lingxi got up from the lotus leaf and knelt straight.
Empress Zhu glanced at the spirit rhino covering her lower abdomen, and suddenly said to Emperor Yong'an, "Your Majesty, no matter whether Concubine Ying is wrong or not, she is pregnant with a dragon heir after all. The concubine had an uninvited invitation, and asked the emperor to look at the face of the dragon heir in her womb and give a light punishment to the concubine. β
Lingxi looked back at Queen Zhu, who pleaded for her, and didn't know what trick Queen Zhu was playing.
But no matter what, the child in this womb is a talisman of the spirit rhino. After Queen Zhu's words were finished, Lingxi covered her lower abdomen, frowned again, and leaned on the lotus leaf.
Emperor Yong'an sat down on the throne and watched Lingxi be silent, but waved his hand to Imperial Physician Zhang, who had been kneeling on the side.
After Imperial Physician Zhang kowtowed to Emperor Yong'an, he immediately knelt down and crawled in front of Lingxi.
Because it is a special period, it is also free of many scruples. After Lotus Ye lifted Lingxi's left hand, Imperial Physician Zhang directly put the three fingers of his right hand on Lingxi's thin wrist.
Suddenly, Imperial Doctor Zhang's face changed.
Empress Zhu hurriedly asked, "But what's wrong?" β
Cold sweat dripped from Imperial Physician Zhang's forehead, and Imperial Physician Zhang did not answer Empress Zhu's words, but did not avoid suspicion and held up Lingxi's right hand, and concentrated on calling the pulse.
Looking at Imperial Physician Zhang's shocked expression, Lingxi's heart also twitched.
Could it be that the child in the belly can't be saved?
After Imperial Physician Zhang put down Lingxi's right hand, he crawled in front of Emperor Yong'an, kowtowed his three heads, and said in a trembling voice, "Your Majesty, the Ying Concubine Niangniang has no happy pulse. β
Imperial Physician Zhang's voice was like a sharp thorn, stabbing into Lingxi's brain, causing the blood on Lingxi's body to freeze instantly, and he couldn't react anymore.
"Imperial Doctor Zhang, you make your words clear." Emperor Yong'an looked at Lingxi and asked Imperial Physician Zhang.
Imperial Physician Zhang wiped the sweat from his forehead and replied, "Your Majesty, Concubine Ying is not pregnant, and Concubine Ying has no dragon heir in her abdomen!" β
"You talk nonsense!" Lingxi came back to his senses, trembled and shouted at Imperial Doctor Zhang: "There is obviously a March dragon heir in the belly of this palace, how can you say that there is no one?" β
Lingxi grabbed his lower abdomen with his hand, and his heart was completely panicked.
How could she not have children, she had not been to Kwai Shui for three months. She vomits, can't eat, and snooze...... These are obviously signs of pregnancy.
"Your Majesty, the old minister has been practicing medicine for thirty years, although the medical skills are not refined, but the old minister can still diagnose it......
"Imperial Physician Zhang," Lingxi stood up with the lotus leaf and pointed at Imperial Physician Zhang, "Don't think that you don't know what you're doing. The child in the womb of this palace, how can you say that there is no one! This palace doesn't believe you," Lingxi knelt down in front of Emperor Yong'an again, kowtowed to Emperor Yong'an, and said, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, the concubines don't believe in this nonsense-filled Imperial Doctor Zhang, please come to Imperial Physician Shi, Imperial Physician Shi has been taking care of the concubine's body for several years......"
The spirit rhino knelt on the ground, shaking like chaff.
"Your Majesty......" Empress Zhu said loudly, "Imperial Doctor Zhang is already old, and there may be some mistakes at hand. It is better to invite Imperial Doctor Liu and Imperial Doctor Shi to come together to diagnose and treat Concubine Ying, the royal bloodline must not be sloppy. β
Empress Zhu's words not only did not make Lingxi feel at ease, but made Lingxi feel horrified. She looked up at Empress Zhu's eyes, full of horror. She even wondered if Imperial Doctor Shi had already been bought by Empress Zhu......
The dragon heir in her womb, the dragon heir she has always regarded as the last straw......
No, it won't! Lingxi comforted herself in her heart, she was obviously three months pregnant, as long as Imperial Doctor Liu and Imperial Doctor Shi came to see her......
Two quarters of an hour later, at the behest of Empress Zhu, I went to invite the imperial doctor Ziwan to come back. However, Zi Wan was not followed by Doctor Shi or Doctor Liu, but Doctor Qi.
Ziwan knelt at the feet of Emperor Yong'an, looked at Lingxi, and said to Emperor Yong'an, "Emperor Qi, Imperial Physician Liu has been sick for three days, and he is not in the Imperial Hospital. Doctor Shi is not in the hospital either, and I heard that no one has seen him for a few days. When the slave maid saw that Imperial Physician Qi was there, she invited Imperial Physician Qi here. β
After listening to Ziwan's words, Lingxi sat down on the ground, and the last trace of luck in his heart was gone.
The imperial doctor that Ziwan can invite must be Queen Zhu's person, does the result need to be said?
Sure enough, after examining Lingxi's pulse, Imperial Physician Qi said the same words as Imperial Physician Zhang, and knelt in front of Emperor Yong'an and said, "When Wei Chen left the Imperial Hospital, he heard that he was going to diagnose the pulse of Concubine Ying, so he specially looked through the prescription prescribed by Imperial Physician Shi for Concubine Ying. Among the fetal protection prescriptions, Wei Chen found one, "Imperial Doctor Qi handed a prescription to Emperor Yong'an, and said, "The effect of this prescription is amenorrhea and vomiting......
Emperor Yong'an took the prescription, his teeth clenched, and the green tendons on his forehead rioted. Suddenly, Emperor Yong'an slammed the medicine prescription on Lingxi's face, and said angrily, "Concubine Ying, you are pretending to be pregnant and competing for favor, what else do you have to say!" β
Lingxi was so frightened by Emperor Yong'an that he didn't dare to open his eyes to see Emperor Yong'an's face. Her heart was full of despair, and without the dragon heir in her belly, she no longer had a bargaining chip to save her life.
Emperor Yong'an angrily said to Feng Gong, "Spread the word that the Ye family of Yongle Palace, murdering the dragon heir, fake pregnancy and competing for favor, the crime is extremely evil, and his heart can be counted." I remember that she is the biological mother of the five princes, and she is abolished as a concubine, and she is imprisoned in the cold palace for life! β
Lingxi opened his eyes and shuddered at the eyes of Emperor Yong'an who hated him so much, and then, Lingxi stabilized his mind.
She knelt up straight, kowtowed to Emperor Yong'an, and said, "The concubine is the order." But the concubine still has one more thing to ask for. β
Seeing that Emperor Yong'an was glaring at her, Lingxi kowtowed again and said, "You have no jokes, the emperor once promised a concubine one thing." β
Empress Zhu's face turned pale, and she said angrily, "Ye family, you are presumptuous!" β
Emperor Yong'an looked at Lingxi for a long time, and said, "I promised you, I said that as long as I keep the measure, I will promise you, you say."
Lingxi raised his head and looked directly at Emperor Yong'an, "The concubine doesn't dare to say anything that will embarrass the emperor. The concubine only asked the emperor to hand over the five princes to the Ruyi Hall of Qingle Palace to be raised by the concubines. β
"Quasi-......"
"Sin Concubine......" Tears slid down again, and Lingxi prayed, "Sin Concubine still wants to look at the five princes again." β
"You don't deserve ......"
