Chapter 13 Miscarriage
"Niangniang, do we want to go to Concubine Qi's palace to have a look?" Su Yun asked.
Nie Yan didn't want to go, but the movement outside was too big, and she couldn't pretend she didn't know.
"Let's go check it out. I want to see how many cows, ghosts, snakes, and gods there are in this palace. ”
Nie Yan instructed Su Yun to stay in Beichen Palace, and only took Wan Hui to Concubine Qi, but now that the palace is restless, Nie Yan has to prevent someone from using herself as a raft.
Concubine Qi's background is Jiangmen, her father has great military achievements, the first emperor was named the prince of Zhenguo, and her mother is the county lord of Beiqing Palace, and she can also be called Xiao Yu's cousin.
It is because Concubine Qi has been smooth sailing since she entered the palace, even Queen Xu has to let her score three points, so that Concubine Qi has always acted flamboyantly, and she has no fear after she is pregnant, and there are many people who want to offend.
According to the rules of the palace, pregnant concubines have a special imperial doctor to ask for pulse every day, and the fetal medicine is naturally the best to send.
Nie Yan remembered that when she saw Concubine Qi in the morning, she was still full of anger, and she didn't look like something was wrong.
With great care, Nie Yan stepped into Concubine Qi's bedroom, and the palace maid who led the way took Nie Yan to the main hall and retired.
When the eunuch at the gate of the palace saw Nie Yan, he saluted and hurriedly went to the palace to report, and after a while, Nie Yan entered.
In the main hall, Xiao Yu and Queen Xu sat high in the hall, and from below were Concubine De and Concubine Yun, but Concubine Xian and Concubine Hui were not seen.
"The concubine has seen Your Majesty, Your Majesty. I've seen the queen's mother, the mother's mother. ”
Nie Yan saluted. As for Concubine De and Concubine Yun, one is in the same position as her, and the other is still of lower status, so naturally there is no need for Nie Yan to salute.
When Xiao Yu saw Nie Yan coming, his frowning brows stretched a little, and he said, "No courtesy, I didn't recruit you tonight, and I thought you would have rested a long time ago." ”
"The concubine heard that Concubine Qi's sister was sick, where did she still have the heart to rest. I don't know if Concubine Qi's sister is okay now? Nie Yan asked cautiously.
Speaking of Concubine Qi, Xiao Yu's face sank a little, and Queen Xu said on her behalf: "The imperial doctor is still treating, but the imperial heir is afraid that it will be difficult." ”
Nie Yan looked sad and said, "May God bless me." ”
Empress Xu and Concubine De also agreed, asking for mercy from God. But everyone knows that the child in Concubine Qi's womb cannot be fine, and Concubine Qi may lose half her life because of this.
"Concubine Qi is fine this morning, why is it not good tonight?" Empress Xu asked.
Xiao Yu shook his head and said, "I don't know, after dinner, the people around Concubine Qi came to the imperial study to tell me that Concubine Qi was unwell, and I rushed to visit after I finished dealing with political affairs, but the imperial doctor said that Concubine Qi's fetus could not be saved." ”
It turned out that this was the reason why Xiao Yu didn't announce that he was sleeping, Nie Yan said in her heart.
Nie Yan didn't know that Xiao Yu was observing her reaction while saying this. But unfortunately, Nie Yan didn't show any expression.
Queen Xu didn't notice Xiao Yu's small movements, but secretly wondered who had helped her solve her big trouble.
Concubine Yun still watched coldly, as if everything had nothing to do with her.
It was Concubine De, who took all of this into account, and had a new plan for this concubine from a foreign country.
At this time, Concubine Qi's side had quieted down, and the big eunuch beside Concubine Qi came to report, saying that Concubine Qi wanted to see the emperor.
Xiao Yu naturally wanted to take a look, and Nie Yan also followed Empress Xu and the others over, and as soon as she stepped into Concubine Qi's bedroom, there was a strong smell of blood, even if she lit the incense burner, it would not help.
"Your Majesty, you have to be the master of your concubines!" As soon as Concubine Qi saw Xiao Yu, she disregarded her now weak body, got up from the bed and threw herself into Xiao Yu's arms.
Xiao Yu naturally couldn't let Concubine Qi do this, after all, he also knew that after the woman gave birth, her body was weak and she had to cultivate well, so he immediately picked up Concubine Qi horizontally and put her back on the bed.
When Empress Xu saw Xiao Yu's actions, although she was unhappy, she had to comfort Concubine Qi and said, "Sister look away, it's good to cultivate yourself." ”
Concubine Qi didn't appreciate it, and said: "Look at it, it's so simple, some people have never had children, how can they know the pain of a mother losing a child?!" ”
As soon as these words came out, Queen Xu couldn't hold back her laughter anymore.
The absence of children in the middle palace is a long-standing regret of Queen Xu.
From the fourth princess to the current queen, it has been several years. And there are many women around Xiao Yu who have come later, and they have all come out, but it is Queen Xu, and there is no movement.
Concubine Qi saw that Queen Xu's face was unhappy, and Xiao Yu didn't say a word, so she knew that she was wrong, and it happened that Concubine Qi saw Nie Yan here again, and she immediately had someone to vent to.
"It's you! If you enter the palace today, my child will lose his life today, it must be you, you demon girl has cast witchcraft to harm my child! ”
After Concubine Qi finished speaking excitedly, she pulled the corner of Xiao Yu's clothes and said with tears: "Your Majesty, please, concubine, beg you, kill this demon girl!" Avenge our children! ”
Xiao Yu's face changed, and he shouted: "Shut up! Do you know what you're talking about? ”
In the Chu Palace, evil things are taboo. Moreover, Nie Yan's identity is different from ordinary concubines after all, where can she be killed at will?
Nie Yan didn't expect Concubine Qi to identify her so directly, there was no evidence, no reason and no logic, how dare Concubine Qi just say that she was a murderer?
Empress Xu and Concubine De didn't speak, they were looking forward to Concubine Qi and Nie Yan fighting to the death.
Concubine Yun is also always a person who doesn't care about herself.
Nie Yan didn't plan to defend herself, as long as Xiao Yu was not a faint king, she would find out the truth and return her innocence.
And Xiao Yu's drinking of Concubine Qi also shows that Xiao Yu is not confused.
But obviously, Concubine Qi was determined to pull Nie Yan into the water.
"Your Majesty, don't you know that Nanzhan believes in shamans and practices witchcraft all year round? As a princess of Nanzhan, how could Concubine Shu not know witchcraft? ”
Concubine Qi's words made Queen Xu and Concubine De seem to have suddenly realized, and they echoed one after another.
"The concubine heard that the shaman of Nanzhan seems to have special powers."
"The concubine has also heard of it."
Concubine Yun still didn't say a word.
Xiao Yu sneered: "I don't know, you live in the deep palace, and you can also hear about Nanzhan's affairs?" I don't know where you heard it? ”
As soon as Xiao Yu said this, Queen Xu and Concubine De stopped talking and didn't dare to answer.
Only Concubine Qi, who didn't know if she had lost her mind because of a miscarriage, didn't notice Xiao Yu's gloom, and answered: "It was the palace maid around the concubine who told the concubine!" ”
Xiao Yu's face darkened, and he immediately ordered: "Someone who comes, will bring it if you meet!" ”
Empress Xu and Concubine De felt that Concubine Qi was too stupid, and they didn't hurry to clear up their connection with the outside of the palace, you must know that what the emperor was most afraid of was the harem colluding with the previous dynasty.
But Nie Yan thought of something else, which is also what Xiao Yu is thinking about now, who is the master behind this palace maid? Concubine Qi's miscarriage may not be just a simple battle between the palace and the concubine.
