I died tragically in my previous life, and I want to be an empress in my next life

"Concubine, Xuan'er, what's wrong with you?" Aunt Yun stepped forward and supported Pei Zhixuan.

"Aunt, I, I was just thrown to the ground by my sister, and now my stomach hurts so much." Pei Zhixuan said painfully, with beads of sweat appearing on her face.

"Princess, please talk nicely. Why did you resort to violence?" Aunt Yun said as she supported Pei Zhixuan.

Yin Liu also ran over and nervously circled around Pei Zhiyan to see if she was injured. After seeing that Pei Zhiyan was safe and sound, she breathed a sigh of relief and then turned to Aunt Yun, "Aunt Yun, did you see the princess take action?"

When Yin Liu asked this, Aunt Yun's face changed slightly, and she couldn't help but feel a little flustered. She hurriedly covered up her loss of composure, calmed herself down, then turned to Yin Liu and said coldly, "You are a maid, how can you interfere in what is happening here?"

Yin Liu was choked by Aunt Yun's words, but she did not back down. Instead, she continued, "Aunt Yun, I know I'm just a maid, but I also have my own eyes and judgment. What I saw was that the concubine fell down by herself, and the princess did not push her."

Aunt Yun's face turned red with anger at Yin Liu's insistence. She wanted to refute, but couldn't find a suitable reason.

At this moment, Pei Zhixuan suddenly let out a painful groan. Everyone looked at her and saw that her face was as pale as paper and beads of sweat the size of beans were sliding down her forehead.

"What's wrong? What's wrong?" Old Madam Pei also rushed to the scene at this time. Seeing Pei Zhixuan's appearance, she was so scared that she broke out in a cold sweat.

"Aunt, aunt, my stomach hurts so much..." Pei Zhixuan said in a trembling voice.

Upon seeing this, Aunt Yun hurriedly helped Pei Zhixuan up. Only then did they discover that there was blood on the hem of Pei Zhixuan's skirt.

Pei Zhiyan immediately ordered Yin Liu, "Go get the imperial physician."

Aunt Yun said at this time, "Don't bother the imperial physician. There is a court physician in the mansion. Quick, help the concubine to the inner courtyard to rest first, and then let the court physician come over to take a look."

Several maids immediately came over to help Pei Zhixuan up and slowly walked towards the inner courtyard.

Yin Liu had already left the house in a hurry after receiving Pei Zhiyan's instructions.

Pei Zhiyan followed behind, watching all this coldly. Haha, let's see how they act next.

Soon, the court doctor rushed to the scene. At this time, Pei Zhixuan was already lying on the bed in the inner room, her face pale and groaning in pain. The court doctor first felt Pei Zhixuan's pulse, and then glanced at Aunt Yun with a cryptic look.

Seeing the court doctor's hesitation to speak, he hurriedly asked, "House doctor, how is Concubine Xuan doing? Feel free to tell me."

The court doctor pondered for a moment, sighed, and then slowly said, "Concubine Xuan has had a miscarriage."

Aunt Yun's face turned extremely pale in an instant, and the handkerchief in her hand fell to the ground. She looked at the court doctor in disbelief and asked in a trembling voice, "Are you serious?"

The court doctor nodded and said in a heavy tone, "Indeed, Concubine Xuan's pulse has clearly shown signs of miscarriage. And judging from the bleeding, the child can no longer be saved."

When Aunt Yun heard this, tears welled up in her eyes. She stepped forward and held Pei Zhixuan's hand tightly, crying and saying, "Xuan'er, how could this happen?"

At this moment, Pei Zhixuan, who was lying on the bed, suddenly sat up. Her eyes were red and tears welled up in her eyes. She pointed at Pei Zhiyan and shouted, "It's all your fault! You vicious person!"

"If you are so unwilling to tolerate my sister, why did you let her enter the palace in the first place? You keep saying that it is for the benefit of the family, but now you are unwilling to tolerate me and my child for your own benefit!"

"You are so cruel! If you hadn't pushed me down just now, my child wouldn't be gone!"

Pei Zhixuan's hands tightly grasped the bed sheet, her body trembling, the grief in her heart could not be described in words. She kept crying, tears sliding down her cheeks and soaking the bed sheet.

"Pity my unborn child, what has he done wrong?!"

Prime Minister Pei was also furious at this time, and shouted at Pei Zhiyan, "You unfilial daughter, you are really outrageous! How could you do such a thing?!"

Pei Zhiyan watched all this coldly. This mother and daughter were really good at acting. If she didn't know what was going on, she would have believed it. Ha, let's see how you guys continue to act!

She spoke lightly, with a hint of disdain in her voice, "I didn't even know she was pregnant, and she was holding my hand just now. I just dodged instinctively, and she fell down."

When Prime Minister Pei heard what Pei Zhiyan said, his face turned blue with anger. He rushed towards Pei Zhiyan, pointed at her nose, and his finger almost poked her nose tip, "You evil girl! You still want to quibble at this time! Do you still want to use the title of princess to pressure your father?"

Aunt Yun also stepped forward to stop Prime Minister Pei. While wiping her tears, she said hypocritically, "Prime Minister, please don't be angry. The princess may not have meant it. She just feels sorry for Xuan'er's child. He is the heir to the throne."

Pei Zhiyan looked at Aunt Yun's hypocritical tears and couldn't help feeling sick. She glanced at the two of them coldly, and she had already made up her mind. She wanted to see how long they could play this scene.

Pei Zhiyan spoke again, her eyes firm and her demeanor calm. Even though she was facing her own father, she did not back down at all. "Prime Minister Pei, I did not expect this to happen. If I knew she was pregnant, I would never have argued with her."

The call of "Prime Minister Pei" made everyone in the room stunned. Although Prime Minister Pei was Pei Zhiyan's father, she was now the Princess of Jing and was listed on the royal jade disk. In terms of status alone, she was naturally higher than Prime Minister Pei.

This call of "Prince Prime Minister Pei" undoubtedly severed Pei Zhiyan's last bit of affection for him. In the past, she had never been so indifferent even when facing her father's harsh reprimand.

Prime Minister Pei was also stunned. This daughter had been disliked since she was a child. When she grew up, she brought shame upon himself because of what happened between her and Prince Jing before marriage. However, she had never disobeyed her father before, and today she dared to be so unreasonable.

His face turned pale, and he glared at Pei Zhiyan, but he couldn't say a word. He knew that Pei Zhiyan in front of him was no longer the little girl who could be easily scolded by him.

The atmosphere in the room suddenly became solemn, and the others stopped talking.

At this time, Yin Liu rushed over with the imperial physician Li from the palace, and when Aunt Yun and Pei Zhixuan saw imperial physician Li, their faces changed.
