Chapter 361 Brother finally becomes brother
Chapter 361 Brother finally becomes brother
Let me say this now, doesn’t the emperor have any doubts in his heart?
That was of course impossible, but the emperor was unwilling to doubt the queen.
Alas! I hope the Queen and the Queen Mother will not disappoint him.
The emperor at this moment was most thinking that the empress dowager was helping the queen cover up something, but he did not suspect that the empress dowager had any evil ambitions.
Imperial Doctors Kang and Meng arrived soon.
After they took the pulses of Jiang Chunxi and several concubines, they confirmed that Jiang Chunxi and others were pregnant, especially Sun Changzai, whose baby was almost three months old.
The emperor's face darkened, but he knew that now was not the time to be angry. When everyone present saw the emperor's gloomy face, no one dared to jump out and say anything at this time.
However, everyone labeled the queen as jealous in their hearts. It must be that the queen did not want to see the concubine give birth to a child, so she colluded with all the doctors in the Imperial Medical Bureau to hide the fact that the concubine was pregnant. In that case, even if the concubine lost the child, no one would think it was a miscarriage.
After all, I'm not pregnant, so how could I have a miscarriage?
The Queen was very panicked at this time. How could this happen? How could Concubine Jiang and others be pregnant?
The Queen Mother and her youngest son looked at each other, and both mother and son realized the seriousness of the matter. If this matter was not handled properly, the Emperor might notice their plan.
After the palace banquet, the emperor did not immediately question the queen, but asked Imperial Physician Xuankang and Imperial Physician Meng for details.
"Empress Jiang and others have traces of musk erosion in their bodies. I estimate that the ladies must have been exposed to musk for a long time. Although the fetus in their belly is not in any danger now, if left unattended, the fetus will be in danger at best and weak at best." This is the voice of Imperial Doctor Kang.
"Your Majesty," Imperial Physician Meng continued, "The dragon fetus in Sun Changzai's belly is already showing signs of miscarriage. If we don't quickly find out how Sun Changzai came into contact with musk, the dragon fetus in Sun Changzai's belly will be in danger!"
The emperor's face became gloomier as he listened: "Alright, you guys can leave first!"
"I'll take my leave." Imperial Doctor Kang and Imperial Doctor Meng bowed and left.
"Where is the queen now?" the emperor asked the eunuch beside him:
"Your Majesty," the eunuch replied, "The Queen sent the Queen Mother back to the palace, and she is still in the Queen Mother's palace."
"Go to Ningshou Palace." As soon as he finished speaking, the emperor stood up and walked outside.
At the same time, in the Queen Mother's Palace.
"Aunt, what is going on? Why are Concubine Jiang and the others really pregnant, but the imperial physicians of the Imperial Hospital concealed their pregnancy," the Queen said anxiously, "Aunt, did you do this in order to make Concubine Jiang and the others abort their pregnancies without them knowing it?"
"Aunt, you are so confused!" The Queen was really worried. "You didn't plan it this way before. Why did you suddenly change your plan? It's okay to change the plan, but you didn't even inform me. Now it's okay, right? The Emperor will definitely suspect me."
The Queen Mother really didn't want to talk to the Queen, who was such a fool, but in order to make the Queen, who was such a fool, willingly take the blame, she could only patiently say, "It is indeed my fault for not telling you in advance, but Luo Zi! This matter must not let the Emperor suspect me, otherwise Yi'er will probably be suspected by the Emperor."
In fact, the Queen Mother still can't figure out what happened. Even if the imperial physicians of the Imperial Medical Bureau betrayed her, it is impossible that all the imperial physicians of the entire Imperial Medical Bureau betrayed her!
What's more, without her order, the imperial physician would not dare to hide the fact that the concubine was pregnant!
So what is going on? The Queen Mother felt like there was an invisible hand controlling everything, which made her feel very uneasy.
"Aunt, what do you mean by that?" The Queen's eyes widened. "Are you asking me to admit to the Emperor that I have the intention of harming the heir to the throne?"
"Luo Zi! Auntie, there is nothing we can do. If you don't admit this, the emperor will suspect me and Yi'er. I don't mind, but Yi'er must not let the emperor suspect anything!" The queen mother grabbed the queen's hand, "You love Yi'er so much that you dream of standing beside Yi'er openly."
"So for Yi'er's great cause and your future happiness, you should admit this matter first. Don't worry, given the emperor's feelings for you, he will never depose you. Besides, I am still here. I will never let the emperor depose you from your position as queen."
Regardless of what the situation is, we should push the queen out first so that the emperor will not suspect her.
What could the queen say? After all, she couldn't let her cousin's great cause come to nothing.
"The Emperor has arrived." Just at this moment, the eunuch's announcement came from outside.
The Queen Mother immediately winked at the Queen, who then knelt down and cried, "Aunt, I was wrong. I just loved the Emperor too much, so I couldn't help but have evil thoughts. But even so, I haven't made up my mind yet, otherwise how could the baby in Sun Changzai's belly still be in her belly."
"You! How could you be so foolish?" the Queen Mother said in grief. "As the Queen, you actually did such a ridiculous thing. Are you worthy of my trust in you and the Emperor's love for you?"
"Queen! Queen, you really disappoint me."
Just as the Queen Mother's voice fell, the Emperor walked in from outside.
"Your Majesty, you are here," the Queen Mother burst into tears as she spoke. "I really didn't know that the Queen would do such a thing. Fortunately, she still has a conscience and has not done anything vicious to the Emperor's heir. Otherwise, I really don't know how to face the Emperor."
"Your Majesty, I was wrong," the Queen knelt and moved in front of the Emperor, "I just love you too much, so I couldn't help but have evil thoughts, but I am not a vicious person after all, I really can't do such a vicious thing as harming the royal heir, otherwise the child in Sun Changzai's belly would not be still staying in her belly."
"Queen, then tell me, what is the matter with the musk in the bodies of several pregnant concubines?" The emperor looked down at the queen with cold eyes and asked:
It is true that the emperor loves the queen, but it is also because of his love that he hates the queen's calculations even more.
"What?" the Queen Mother exclaimed. "Queen! Queen, what else have you done?"
In fact, the Queen Mother had thought of this a long time ago. With the medical skills of Imperial Physicians Kang and Meng, how could they not diagnose that Concubine Jiang and others had traces of musk in their bodies.
"I...I..." What could the queen do at this moment? She could only grit her teeth and admit everything. "Aunt, I was wrong. I shouldn't have been so jealous that I tampered with the palace where the concubines lived."
