The Empress of Zhen Huan Reborn

Nian Shilan hadn't heard the emperor speak for a long time in his arms. She looked up in surprise and saw that the emperor looked solemn. For a moment, Nian Shilan's heart skipped a beat and she thought carefully about what she had just said, wondering if there was anything wrong.

Just when Nian Shilan was about to speak again, she suddenly felt a cold and sticky touch coming towards her legs. Nian Shilan was startled and suddenly lifted the quilt. The emperor was also startled by Nian Shilan's action.

A snake nearly half a meter long appeared on the bed between the two of them. Looking down, there was another snake of a similar size crawling towards the bed.

The two snakes have triangular heads, thick bodies and short tails, dark brown backs and circular markings on the sides of their bodies.

Snakes normally avoid people, but these two snakes were very abnormal. They spit out their tongues, twisted their bodies, and crawled towards Nian Shilan and the emperor.

Nian Shilan was so frightened that she screamed, "Ah!" The sound was so sharp that it not only woke up the guards guarding the gate outside the palace, but also made the two snakes become a little violent. They were seen crawling quickly towards Nian Shilan.

Upon seeing this, the emperor hurriedly took Nian Shilan and got off the bed, running towards the door.

At this time, Su Peisheng rushed into the hall with his guards. Seeing that the emperor was in a rather disheveled state and the imperial concubine was trembling with fear, he was a little stunned for a moment.

When the emperor saw the person coming, he quickly ordered, "Quick! There is a snake in the palace!"

When Su Peisheng and the guards heard the emperor's words, their faces changed drastically. A group of people hurriedly formed a circle around the emperor and the imperial concubine, protecting them in the middle.

Another group of guards entered the hall wearing swords to kill the snake. For a while, the sound of swords clashing against each other could be heard in the hall, mixed with the tearing sound of swords stabbing into the snake's abdomen. Hearing this, Nian Shilan was trembling all over outside the hall.

The emperor knew that Nian Shilan was frightened this time, so he quickly reached out to embrace Nian Shilan and whispered, "It's okay, Shilan, don't be afraid."

Nian Shilan looked at the emperor with tears in her eyes, "Fortunately, the emperor came today, otherwise, I would..."

Nian Shilan stopped talking halfway and began to cry softly again. The emperor of course understood what Nian Shilan had not said. If he had not come to Changle Palace tonight, Shilan would probably have gone to bed long ago. The consequences of the snake breaking into the palace would be disastrous.

The emperor tightened his grip on Nian Shilan's arm, "Shilan, don't worry, I will protect you."

When Nian Shilan heard the emperor's words, she really wanted to ask, "You always say you will protect me, but when have I ever encountered less danger?" But in the end, Nian Shilan swallowed the words and said nothing. She just lowered her head and sobbed softly.

The emperor was very frightened when he saw Nian Shilan in such a miserable and worried state. At this time, the guards in the palace came out. One of them was holding two snakes without any vital signs. He knelt down and saluted the emperor and said, "Your Majesty, the palace has been cleaned up. Your Majesty can rest assured and take the Royal Concubine back to the bedroom."

When Nian Shilan heard the guard's words, she hurriedly shook her head and said, "No need, I won't go back. I want to go back to Yikun Palace."

The emperor ignored Nian Shilan's words, just nodded and asked the guards to leave.

Nian Shilan huddled in the emperor's arms, clutching the emperor's nightgown tightly and refusing to let go. Seeing this, the emperor picked Nian Shilan up and said to her gently, "Don't be afraid. Follow me back to the Yangxin Palace."

The emperor held Nian Shilan in his arms and strode towards the Yangxin Palace. The emperor was sensitive to the fact that Nian Shilan's body had left Changle Palace, and he relaxed slightly. The emperor continued to comfort her, "Shilan, don't be afraid, it's okay."

Nian Shilan nodded somewhat weakly, and then felt a pain in her abdomen. The fingers that were grabbing the emperor's nightgown tightened again. Nian Shilan frowned and squeezed out a word from between her teeth with some pain, "My stomach hurts!"

When Nian Shilan's fingers tightened around his clothes, the emperor immediately realized something was wrong. Before he could ask, he heard Nian Shilan say that she felt uncomfortable in her abdomen. He was so scared that he quickly raised his voice and ordered Su Peisheng, "Go to the Imperial Hospital and bring all the doctors to me."

Then the emperor strode towards the Yangxin Palace, whispering comfortingly as he ran: "Shilan, don't be afraid, the imperial physician will be here soon, and you and the child will be fine."

Upon seeing this, Su Peisheng also ran towards the Imperial Medical Bureau in a hurry. He couldn't help but sigh in his heart, this is the good thing about the Imperial Concubine's Changle Palace, it is very close to the Emperor's Yangxin Palace and the Imperial Medical Bureau, which is enough to show how much the Emperor cares about the Imperial Concubine.

When Su Peisheng arrived at the Imperial Hospital and saw that the doctors on duty today were Imperial Doctors Zhang and Wen, he quickly stepped forward and said respectfully, "The Imperial Concubine was frightened just now. We are following the Emperor's order to trouble you two imperial doctors to go to the Yangxin Palace to treat the Imperial Concubine."

When Wen Shichu heard Su Peisheng's words, he looked at him in surprise, then lowered his head and said in unison with Doctor Zhang, "I dare not, I dare not."

After Doctor Zhang and Wen Shichu packed up the medicine box, they followed Su Peisheng to the Emperor's Palace of Tranquil Longevity.

After the two entered the palace, they bowed to the emperor and said, "Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you."

When the emperor heard their voices, he didn't even turn his head and said directly, "Come and see the imperial concubine."

Doctor Zhang and Wen Shichu hurriedly checked Nian Shilan's pulse one by one, and then they looked at each other and nodded, and Doctor Zhang reported back: "Your Majesty, I checked the pulse of the Imperial Concubine and found that she was suffering from palpitations and fright, so she had a miscarriage and unbearable abdominal pain. Now there are signs of miscarriage."

When the emperor heard this, he asked anxiously, "What should we do?"

Nian Shilan lay on the couch, looking weakly at the two imperial doctors, and said anxiously, "Imperial doctors, my child must be saved!"

Doctor Zhang looked at the Emperor and Nian Shilan and said, "Your Majesty, Royal Consort, don't worry too much. I will prescribe pregnancy-preserving medicine for you right away. But you should take care of yourself now and don't get frightened again."

After hearing this, the emperor quickly said, "I understand. Go and prepare a pregnancy-preserving medicine for the imperial concubine. Use the best medicinal materials. I want them and their child to be safe."

Doctor Zhang and Wen Shichu quickly agreed and stepped aside, where they discussed and considered the appropriate medicine.

At this time, Nian Shilan's tears were falling down her face. The emperor said softly, "Shilan, don't worry, the heir will be safe. Don't cry anymore, and take care of yourself."

Nian Shilan held the emperor's hand, tears welling up in her eyes, "Your Majesty, I am afraid of those two snakes..."

The emperor looked at Nian Shilan and assured her with a firm gaze: "Don't worry, I will investigate this matter thoroughly."
