The Empress of Zhen Huan Reborn

When Zhou Ninghai heard Nian Shilan's question, he hesitated for a moment, then lowered his head and smiled, "I really don't want to. I don't want to experience the pain of broken bones again."

Nian Shilan sneered, "If you don't want to, why don't you dare look up at my eyes."

When Zhou Ninghai heard what Nian Shilan said, he was forced to look up, but his eyes were a little evasive.

Nian Shilan sighed and said, "I know you are worried that I will have no one around you while you recover. But Zhou Ninghai, you and I have been master and servant since childhood, just like Songzhi. I hope you can get better. I am also concerned about your leg disease because it was caused by my former willfulness. I sincerely hope that you can agree to the treatment. I can also promise you that you will be the only eunuch in charge by my side, and no one will replace you. You and Songzhi are both very important in my heart."

When Zhou Ninghai heard Nian Shilan's heartfelt words, he was a little dazed for a moment and didn't know what to say. Song Zhi, on the other hand, was so moved that she burst into tears.

Songzhi was very grateful that she had met a good master who always considered his servants and treated them as human beings.

While they were full of affection in the Yikun Palace, the Changle Palace was in chaos.

Su Peisheng returned to the Yangxin Palace and reported to the emperor about Fang Chunyi's backwardness. The emperor frowned, stood up and said, "Su Peisheng, go with me to take a look."

Su Peisheng followed the emperor carefully, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, why are there so many things happening in the palace recently.

When the emperor just arrived at Changle Palace, he heard Fang Chunyi yelling inside. The emperor frowned and looked at the palace maids in Changle Palace and asked, "Why is Concubine Chun yelling in the palace?"

The little palace maid was carrying a basin of blood and walking hurriedly. When she heard the emperor's question, she bent her knees and said, "Your Majesty, I'm afraid that Concubine Chun had a miscarriage. The imperial physician is treating her inside."

When the emperor heard that there was an imperial physician treating her, he felt relieved and said, "Since there is an imperial physician, tell her to stop yelling and save her energy."

When Su Peisheng heard the emperor's words, the corners of his lips twitched slightly. As expected, it really made a difference whether the emperor cared or not. When Concubine Xi and Concubine Hui gave birth to their children, they screamed and shouted, but the emperor was never so impatient.

The emperor felt that the main hall was a bit smelly and dirty, so he asked Su Peisheng to bring a chair and put it outside the hall. The emperor sat at the door, watching the servants busying around inside, without saying a word.

After a while, when Imperial Doctor Jiang came out, he saw the emperor sitting at the door and hurried forward and said, "Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you."

The emperor looked at Doctor Jiang with no expression on his face and asked, "How is Concubine Chun?"

Doctor Jiang lowered his head and said in a trembling voice, "Your Majesty, Concubine Chun had a miscarriage and lost the baby. In addition, Concubine Chun was injured this time. I'm afraid it will be difficult for her to conceive in the future."

The emperor hummed, his expression difficult to read, and said, "Take good care of Chun Changzai."

Doctor Jiang responded quickly, and then went to work at the emperor's signal. The emperor looked at Su Peisheng and asked, "What happened today?"

Su Peisheng whispered beside the emperor, "Today, I just thought that Changle Palace was not peaceful a few days ago, so I called Zhou Ninghai. I thought he was familiar with the environment of Changle Palace, so we went to check if there was anything missing in the palace. I was worried that it would be detrimental to the heir. When the servants were searching everywhere, the palace maid hurriedly came back to report that Concubine Chun had seen blood."

The emperor's face darkened when he heard this. "Why did you suddenly have bleeding? Have you found out the reason?"

Su Peisheng lowered his head and replied, "I don't know."

"This matter must be thoroughly investigated!" the emperor said in a cold tone.

Su Peisheng knelt down quickly and said, "I will definitely help the Ministry of Internal Affairs to investigate this matter."

At this time, Lingzhi came out, holding a plate of food and kneeling in front of the emperor, "Your Majesty, Chun Changzai got red after taking these snacks and tea."

The emperor was a little surprised when he saw the food Lingzhi presented. Lingzhi then added: "Since the Imperial Concubine knew that Chun Changzai was pregnant and assigned me to take care of her, she privately told me to take out some of Chun Changzai's daily food and put it separately, so as to prevent her from being harmed by the treacherous people without knowing why."

When the emperor heard Lingzhi's words, he nodded in appreciation and his expression became much more relaxed. He said, "Royal Concubine, you are thoughtful and you did a good job."

When Doctor Jiang came out of the main hall again, beads of sweat appeared on his forehead. He looked at the emperor and said, "Chun Changzai is safe now, but the issue of offspring is still..."

The emperor did not say anything, but just winked and asked Doctor Jiang to look at the food on the tray. He said calmly: "Doctor Jiang, take a look at these foods. Is there anything wrong with them?"

When Doctor Jiang heard what the emperor said, he also began to examine it carefully. Finally, he picked up the date paste cake and said, "Your Majesty, this cake is mixed with safflower and purslane, which is a sharp weapon for falling from the stage."

The emperor looked a little serious. Lingzhi beside him exclaimed and hurriedly confirmed again and again: "Doctor Jiang, have you checked carefully?"

Doctor Jiang nodded again and said, "I will never admit my mistake."

The emperor looked at Lingzhi's reaction and asked, "Are these foods prepared by the small kitchen in Changle Palace?"

Lingzhi nodded, then shook her head, looked at the emperor and said, "Your Majesty, these foods were prepared for Chun Changzai by her personal maid Ling'er in the small kitchen."

The emperor frowned, "Wasn't she punished by the Imperial Concubine to sweep the yard? Why would she go to the small kitchen to prepare food for Concubine Chun?"

Lingzhi looked at the emperor with some hesitation, then mustered up the courage to say, "To answer your question, Concubine Chun has been unhappy since Ling'er was assigned to sweep the courtyard. She felt that she had implicated Ling'er, so she was unhappy and refused to eat the food prepared by the servants. For the sake of the heir, I had no choice but to ask Ling'er to prepare the food for Concubine Chun, and she only started eating."

The emperor was somewhat impatient with Fang Chunyi's willfulness and angrily shouted, "Nonsense!"

At this time, Fang Chunyi woke up in the main hall and cried loudly, "Your Majesty, I want to see you! You killed my child, I want your Majesty to make the decision for me!"

The maids in the palace were all those who had accompanied Nian Shilan from Yikun Palace to Changle Palace. Nian Shilan never criticized them on weekdays, and from time to time he would subsidize them with some silver from his own small storehouse so that they could eat good food, so they were very loyal to Nian Shilan. No one told Fang Chunyi that the emperor was outside the palace.

When Fang Chunyi saw the maids standing still, regardless of his own weakness, he shouted, "Get out! Get out! What benefits did the Imperial Concubine give you to make you so cruel that you poisoned me and my unborn child!"
