An Lingrong after rebirth

Chapter 238 Something Happened to a Precious Person

"Only Guigui was left standing far away with a gloomy face. Cuiyi didn't accomplish anything. How could she let that bitch from the Guarjia clan get hold of her?"

"How do you do things? Seeing that Guihui didn't care and was still speaking bluntly at the door of the skylight, Cuiyi was so scared that her face turned pale."

My lady, this is outside the Queen's palace gate. Let's go back first...

Only then did Zhengui come to his senses, and angrily supported Cuiyi and left quickly.

On the other side, Concubine Qi had a smug look on her face.

"A bondservant of the Wuya clan, you dare to take such initiative to me. This slap today is just to teach her a lesson. When she gives birth to the child, I will make her pay."

Jingtai said with a worried look on his face: My lady, after all, the precious people are the Empress Dowager's family. Will our behavior displease the Empress Dowager?"

"Humph, she was the first to start. I just slapped her back. Does she dare to report this to the Queen Mother?"

"But even though she said that, Concubine Qi's expression was obviously much calmer. After a moment, she waved her hands in annoyance. Forget it, forget it. She finally let out a sigh of relief. Let's go back to the palace."

.........

"Perhaps because he felt guilty, Guigui didn't dare to continue the attack after being slapped by Qi Guiren."

"I didn't even dare to mention this matter in front of the Empress Dowager. Half a month passed like this. On the fifth day of August, because the Empress Dowager also came to the garden, the Emperor and his wife discussed and decided not to return to Zijing City to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival."

"Looking from afar, the garden was already preparing for the Mid-Autumn Palace Banquet. Suddenly, news came out from Anlan Courtyard that Tianguang Yixiu had ignored the palace banquet and was only concentrating on teaching the two children calligraphy."

Seeing that the two children were writing more and more skillfully, Yixiu never lost the smile on her face.

"The palace door was slowly pushed open, Jianqiu poked her head inside and took a look. When she got Yixiu's look, she immediately made a gesture as if she had something to report."

Yixiu frowned slightly, but she also knew that if it wasn't something important, Jian Qiu wouldn't disturb the children when they were practicing calligraphy.

"He lightened his footsteps and walked out slowly. What's the matter?"

"Your Majesty, there's news from Anlan Court just now that the precious one has had a miscarriage. I'm afraid it's not good. As soon as these words came out, Yixiu immediately understood what Jianqiu meant."

"I guess Concubine Qi has made some moves. Has anyone in the Qinzheng Palace sent a message?"

Your Majesty, the eunuch beside your precious person went to the Qinzheng Hall first.

"Yi Xiu nodded after hearing this. I have to watch the two princes practice calligraphy and have no time to take care of other things. Since the emperor already knows about it, let her deal with it. You can just pretend that you have never reported this matter."

"Yes, I understand. Yixiu doesn't care, and the emperor happens to be busy with government affairs. The eunuchs beside the precious people have nowhere to go, so they can only go to the Empress Dowager's Louyue Kaiyunguan."

"Ever since Guirui got pregnant, An Lingrong has visited Yunyueguan less often. She still hasn't figured out what the Queen Mother's attitude is towards Guirui's pregnancy."

No matter how unclear it is, now is the time to figure it out.

"Yan Gui bent his waist slightly and stood not far behind An Lingrong. "My Lady, as soon as the Queen Mother heard the news, she went to Anlan Courtyard and looked very anxious."

"An Lingrong rubbed her aching wrist. After all, she was from the Empress Dowager's family and she was pregnant with the dragon fetus. It was normal for the Empress Dowager to be a little anxious. Is there still no news from the Qinzheng Palace and the upper and lower Tianguang?"

"Eunuch Su has already told the emperor that the results of the imperial examination will be announced in two days. The emperor cannot take care of other things, so he definitely does not have time right now."

"As for the skylight, there was no movement from top to bottom. It seemed that the Queen was only thinking about watching the two little princes practice calligraphy and didn't want to care about other things."

"Yan Gui responded, and then said, "The Imperial Concubine has left. No matter what the Imperial Concubine does, she is pregnant with the Emperor's child. As the Imperial Concubine in charge of the Six Palaces, I cannot just sit back and watch."

"Prepare the sedan chair, let's go take a look. With An Lingrong and Nian Shilan as the base, the concubines in the palace can only follow along. After all, not everyone has the majesty of the queen, and can not care about the life and death of the dragon heir in the belly of a noble lady."

"It took only a short while for An Lingrong's sedan chair to land at the gate of Anlan Courtyard. Speaking of which, in her past and present lives, An Lingrong has always been to Anlan Courtyard."

"This is the Siyi Library. It looks like it has a scholarly atmosphere. Holding Lian'er's hand, I stepped into the palace. The palace was also tense, but I didn't know why Nian Shilan hadn't arrived yet."

"But at this point, An Lingrong knew she couldn't just turn around and leave."

She walked slowly into the main hall, went up to the Queen Mother and knelt down, "I pay my respects to the Queen Mother. May the Queen Mother be blessed with good health and longevity."

"The Queen Mother was obviously very unhappy and naturally had no mood to talk. She just waved her hand and said, 'The Concubine is here. No need to be polite. Get up.'"

"Thank you, Queen Mother. I can hear some impatience in your voice, which you have never shown in front of me."

"An Lingrong was not surprised. She did not care about the Queen Mother's abnormality. After all, the person who got into trouble today was much closer to the Queen Mother than she was."

With the help of Lian'er, she stood up. Queen Mother, I wonder how the precious person is doing? The Queen Mother sighed and shook her head slightly. I'm afraid...

"An Lingrong showed a hint of surprise at the right moment. I heard from the servants below that the precious fetus seemed stable. How could it suddenly become like this?"

"After An Lingrong said this, the Queen Mother did not respond. Instead, Zhu Xi, who was standing beside her, knelt down towards An Lingrong. Madam Shufei, according to the imperial physician, it seems that the young lady may have eaten something wrong, which is why she is like this?"

this………

"An Lingrong, I was shocked, but I seemed to be concerned about the Queen Mother's presence, and I didn't know how to start my mouth."

"Just as the atmosphere in the palace became tense, footsteps were heard outside. An Lingrong took a step back and turned around to see Nian Shilan leading the way, followed by several lower-ranking concubines entering the palace."

"Looking up and seeing that only the Queen Mother and An Lingrong were present, Nian Shilan subconsciously frowned, but she had already entered the door, so naturally she couldn't back out."

She led the people to the Queen Mother and knelt down, "Your concubine/concubine pays respects to the Queen Mother."

"The Queen Mother was already upset because of the precious people's affairs, and now hearing the voices of Yingying and Yanyan, she felt even more irritated."

"But she has been in the inner palace for many years. Even if she feels this way, her face doesn't show it at all. Get up!"

Thank you, Queen Mother.

"Nian Shilan stood up and happened to meet An Lingrong's gaze. She saw that she shook her head slightly at her. She was stunned for a moment before she reacted."

She didn't speak immediately, but just lifted her skirt and was about to step aside.

"The Queen Mother seemed to realize that it was not right for everyone to sit properly, so she turned around and immediately ordered Zhuxi to give seats to the Imperial Concubine and the Concubine Shu."

"As for the others, we are still unsure about the condition of the precious person, so you don't have to wait here, just go back."

"The Imperial Concubine and the Shu Concubine have been managing the six palaces for many years. They are experienced in doing things and it is enough to have them around."

"Speaking of which, how many of those who came to Anlan Hospital this time really came to visit Guihui? Most of them came because Guihui has been arrogant and domineering since she got pregnant, and some of them just wanted to laugh at her."

"The rest probably heard that the Queen Mother had arrived early and were worried that this would cause dissatisfaction, so they had to come. Now that the Queen Mother has spoken, no one will say anything."

"After they bowed, they turned and left, but An Lingrong clearly saw the look of triumph on Concubine Qi's face, which she couldn't hide at all."

"Everyone left. Perhaps the Queen Mother's words had spread. From then on, for nearly an hour, no concubines arrived."

"They just sat there in silence, no one speaking, until Cui Yi hurriedly walked in, and then the expressions of the three of them changed."

"How is the precious fetus?" Cuiyi didn't need to speak. The Queen Mother spoke in a hurry, and Cuiyi fell to the ground and cried.

Queen Mother, my mistress...had a miscarriage...

"The Queen Mother had expected this, but when she heard this, she closed her eyes, as if she was unwilling to accept it."

Where did this happen?

Cui's doubtful voice sounded again, "Empress Dowager, the imperial physician said that my young lady was drugged with safflower, which caused her not only a miscarriage, but also a disease of bleeding. From now on... I'm afraid... she will never get pregnant again."

After these words were spoken, the Queen Mother did not speak immediately, and her expression hardly changed at all.

But An Lingrong, who was standing by, felt that the other party might not be so calm at the moment.

The disease of red discharge from the vagina is also called metrorrhagia.

"The menstrual period is endless. I'm afraid it will be like this for most of the month. If it continues for a long time, your body will naturally not be in good condition. I'm afraid your precious life will be ruined."

This also shattered the Queen Mother's hopes.

After a long while, the Queen Mother spoke, "Honghua, bring up everything your young master used today, and I will let the imperial physician report back."

"No need to go down, Cuiyi. As soon as the Queen Mother finished speaking, several people came in. One of them was wearing the uniform of an imperial physician, and he was here to check the pulse of the precious person today."

"I, the Imperial Physician, have come to Guo Su to pay my respects to the Empress Dowager, the Imperial Concubine, and the Imperial Concubine. Since the Empress Dowager is present, it is naturally not their turn to speak."

"Forget it, Doctor Guo, please don't be polite. Please explain to me in detail what is going on with my precious person."

"Yes," he responded. Guo Su continued, "Queen Dowager, the Eight Treasures Soup used by the noble lady was filled with a lot of safflower. The noble lady used a whole cup of this soup."

"That's why you had a miscarriage so quickly. This safflower comes from Sichuan Province. It has a great blood-breaking effect, which is why you hurt your body."

Cui wondered, was this eight-treasure soup taken from the imperial kitchen?

"Cui Yi had been kneeling without getting up. Suddenly she heard the Queen Mother's question and hurriedly replied. In response to the Queen Mother's question, since the young lady was pregnant, Anlan Courtyard has arranged a small kitchen."

This eight-treasure soup was made in the small kitchen today, and was not taken from the imperial kitchen.

"Bring up the person who made this soup." When the Queen Mother said this, Cui Yi kowtowed and said, "Queen Mother, this soup was made by me."

Absolutely no problem, you do?

"The Queen Mother seemed stunned after hearing this. An Lingrong looked at the other person's expression and suspected that it must be someone arranged by the Queen Mother. Such a person would naturally not do anything to a precious person."

"Since it was yours personally, why was it given a red flower, and you don't know how you usually serve it?"

"Maybe there was something wrong with the people I arranged, which made the Queen Mother very angry? He slapped the table, scaring Cui Yi so much that she trembled."

Please forgive me, Queen Mother. I did make this soup, but it takes time to make it. I was busy preparing things for the young master today and was not watching over her all the time. It is all my fault. Please forgive me, Queen Mother... "

Since you're not guarding it all the time, someone will take advantage of it, Zhuxi.

"It's hard to tell what the Queen Mother's voice is like, but Zhu Xi has served her for many years, so he naturally understands that his master is furious at this moment."

He hurriedly stepped forward and said, "I'm here!"

"Go and summon all the servants serving in Anlan Courtyard to the courtyard and interrogate them one by one. If you cannot find out the truth today, the servants serving in Anlan Courtyard today will no longer have to serve in the garden."

"You don't have to serve in the garden anymore. It sounds nice, but everyone can hear what the Queen Mother means."

"If we can't find out, I'm afraid no one in the entire Anlan Courtyard will be alive, except for the precious people."

"The Queen Mother has been in a state of reverence for many years. An Lingrong never thought that a nobleman's dragon fetus would lead to such a trick."

"It seems that I have to be more cautious with the Queen Mother in the future. An Lingrong's mind was full of thoughts. Zhu Xi had already received the order and left."

With Zhu Xi, the Empress Dowager's confidant, interrogating them, what kind of trouble can the people in Anlanyuan create?

"The Queen Mother and her friends were in the palace for only a few minutes when a man was escorted in, followed by several figures."

"Zhu Xi stepped forward and knelt down, saying, 'Queen, the person who drugged me has been found.' An Lingrong looked in the direction the other person pointed, but was startled?"

It’s this person?

"Before An Lingrong could think more, the sound of bamboo breath came again. The person tied up by the Queen Mother was the eunuch beside the precious person, named Lian Xi."

"Today, when he was not in the kitchen, several people saw him. He was the only one who entered the kitchen. I have already asked him and he was the one who planted the red flower."

Who is behind this?

The Queen Mother did not hesitate and asked the key point right away, "Queen Mother, Lian Xi said it was Concubine Qi."

When these words were spoken, everyone present, except An Lingrong, felt very surprised.

"Lady Qi, Zhuxi, take the cloth out of his mouth."

Yes!

"Zhu Xi responded with a sound, and with a wave of her hand, someone came forward and took the cloth ball out of Lian Xi's mouth. Even without the Queen Mother saying anything, Lian Xi was so frightened that he kept talking."

"It turns out that the other party is a gambler. He has been serving in the palace for many years. Not only is his monthly salary not enough to spend, he often scrapes together money just for the gambling table."

"It is people like this who are most likely to be bribed. Lady Qi discovered this and secretly bribed Lian Xi to commit the capital crime today."

"The Queen Mother had a gloomy face. She didn't expect that such a simple calculation would cost the dragon fetus in the precious human belly."

"You said it was Lady Qi who ordered it? Do you have any evidence? Who contacted you?"

"Empress Dowager, the person who contacted me was He Yuan, who was beside Lady Qi. He gave me 100 taels of silver and red...red flowers."

After Lian Xi finished speaking, without waiting for the empress dowager to speak again, Zhu Xi followed up with, "Empress Dowager, I have already sent someone to summon Concubine Qi and the eunuch named He Yuan."

"It must be almost time now! The Queen Mother leaned back, slightly closed her eyes, and did not speak for a while."

"The people kneeling on the ground did not dare to move for a while without receiving orders. It was not until the noble lady Qi entered the room that the temperature in the palace was restored to a certain extent."

"As soon as he entered the room, he saw the person kneeling on the ground, and his expression suddenly darkened. An Lingrong found it funny. The Queen Mother summoned him, so could it be that he didn't know what the matter was?"

Now he behaves like this?

She knelt down, and before Concubine Qi could open her mouth to greet her, the Empress Dowager spoke first.

"Lady Qi looked confused, but she knelt down without hesitation. Your Majesty, please forgive me. I wonder what I have done wrong? Please tell me clearly, Your Majesty."

"What did I do wrong?" You ordered the eunuchs around you to attack the precious person and kill the dragon fetus in her belly. Now you come to me and say that you don't know what you did wrong?
