Rebirth with my ex-husband

Chapter 71

Su Yun first told her mother-in-law about inviting the eldest imperial concubine to the Marquis' Mansion.

After hearing what she said, Mrs. Gu was stunned for a moment, then she came to her senses and asked in surprise, "What do you suddenly want to do?"

Since her daughter-in-law came into the family, she has been very satisfied with her in every way, and gradually she has come to feel that her daughter-in-law is a calm and sensible person.

Now hearing her say this, my first reaction was that there was a reason for it.

Su Yun didn't know that her mother-in-law had gradually developed trust in her, so she just explained slowly: "Yesterday, my daughter-in-law talked to my husband about some things, and she had doubts. So after my husband and my daughter-in-law discussed it, they decided to invite the Grand Concubine to the mansion today."

Madam Gu's face was full of confusion: "What exactly is the problem? Do we need to ask the Grand Concubine to come here to solve it?"

"Mother, please wait until your daughter-in-law meets the Grand Concubine today and clears up her doubts before reporting the truth to me, okay?"

Mrs. Gu asked, "Did you discuss this with Xing'er?"

Su Yun nodded: "Yes."

Madam Gu thought for a while and said, "You and Xing'er are both people who think twice before acting. Since Xing'er has agreed, there is no problem. Go ahead."

Su Yun responded and walked out.

After returning to the courtyard, he arranged to make some cakes and asked Xia Ke to wait at the side door in half an hour for Doctor Fu to come and then invite him to Qinglan Garden.

At about 9 o'clock, Su Yun heard that the Grand Concubine had arrived, so he went out of the courtyard to greet her.

After they were ushered into the small hall in the courtyard and sat down, Su Yun apologized: "It was really too abrupt to send an invitation to invite the imperial concubine all of a sudden."

Xie Yiran smiled lightly: "Madam Gu, you are worrying too much. I have nothing to do in the mansion. I am also honored that Madam Gu invited me to come over for tea."

At this time, Chu Yi brought tea.

Two cups of tea were placed in front of them. Xie Yiran picked up a cup of tea and gently opened the lid, and a faint rose scent wafted out.

Xie Yiran looked at Su Yun in surprise: "Is it rose tea?"

Su Yunying: "This is a scented tea made from the stamens that were picked and dried at the beginning of summer this year. A little honey is added to this scented tea. It has the effect of soothing the liver and regulating qi, and beautifying the skin. Your Majesty may wish to try it."

Pregnant women are advised to drink less strong tea, so Su Yun prepared scented tea to entertain them.

After Xie Yiran drank the tea, he put down the cup. With a faint smile, he looked at Su Yun and said directly: "Mrs. Gu, you didn't just want me to come over to taste the tea, right? If you have anything to say, please speak up."

Xie Yiran's voice is gentle and can calm people down.

Su Yun thought for a moment, then asked, "Has the Grand Concubine heard about what happened to me in March this year?"

The Grand Concubine hesitated for a moment, but still nodded: "I have heard some of it."

Su Yun smiled helplessly and said, "I'm already married, and I don't want to talk about those things anymore. But these things are related to Concubine Chen. After careful consideration, I decided to tell the imperial concubine."

Speaking of that person, Xie Yiran frowned and asked, "What does it have to do with her?"

Su Yun could tell from the look on the eldest empress's face that she didn't think much of Concubine Chen. Seeing this, Su Yun continued speaking.

"My husband secretly investigated earlier. After Prince Dinghuai came to Jindu, the one he interacted with most was the young master of the Chen family. Later, I interrogated Prince Dinghuai and learned that he learned about me from the young master of the Chen family, and it was the young master of the Chen family who instigated him to propose marriage."

Liang Yong did say these words.

It was just that Gu Shixingdao found a use for Chen Minglang, so he suppressed the matter for the time being.

When Xie Yiran heard this, his face darkened slightly, and his tone was already filled with anger: "The Chen family is really so bold!"

First, Chen Minglang rode his horse to kill the little boy, and then Concubine Chen sent people to threaten and beat up the little boy's family. It was after knowing this that Xie Yiran began to treat Concubine Chen rudely.

The little boy's life was innocently lost because of Chen Minglang's play. It would have been fine if Concubine Chen did not reflect on her mistakes, but she also helped her brother do those unscrupulous things. She was too lazy to flatter such a virtuous person and did not even want to look at him.

If Su Yun could tell from the Crown Princess's expression just now that she looked down on Concubine Chen, then now she was filled with disgust.

Seeing this, Su Yun asked again: "Does the Grand Concubine know why the Grand Prince once expressed his feelings to Concubine Chen and why Concubine Chen refused?"

Xie Yiran looked at Su Yun and did not respond immediately. He only asked, "Does Madam Gu know?"

Su Yunyan said: "My husband told me."

Smart people always say half and keep the other half, but despite this, they can still understand each other.

The four looked at each other for a while, and they seemed to understand each other's meaning. Xie Yiran also nodded and said faintly: "I roughly know, it's because of Master Gu."

Xie Yiran seemed to know nothing in the imperial palace, but he also saw through everything.

Sometimes her husband would lose his temper in Xiyuan, usually late at night.

I'm afraid that Concubine Chen called out someone else's name.

She once found the words "Gu Shixing" in her husband's study. The paper with the name on it was riddled with holes, all of which were marks left by a dagger.

If you think about it, you will understand the relationship between the two.

At this point, Su Yun spoke frankly: "After I married my husband, he told me that he had already fallen in love with me. I don't know how Concubine Chen got to know this, and she was resentful, so she might have let her brother do such a thing."

Su Yun also decided to make this move after discussing it with Gu Shixing. After all, she didn't have much friendship with the Grand Concubine. If she directly said that she suspected that the Grand Concubine was pregnant and that someone might harm her, the Grand Concubine would not only not believe it, but would also not stay for long, and it would be awkward to see her again in the future.

Besides, the matter of Liang Yong was most likely a plot by the eldest prince. But the eldest prince was still the husband of the eldest concubine. So Su Yun did not mention the eldest prince at all, and only pushed the blame on Concubine Chen, waiting for the eldest concubine to save her child and her life, and then gradually see the true face of her husband.

Xie Yiran's gentle face had already turned cold, and after a while, she showed an embarrassment: "I'm afraid I can't help Madam Gu get justice."

Su Yun hurriedly shook her head: "I didn't say this just to seek justice. I brought this up just because I wanted to tell the Grand Concubine something else."

Xie Yiran was slightly surprised: "What is the matter that Madam Gu is talking about?"

Su Yun said: "I am afraid that I may be suspicious and offend you, but if I don't do that, I will have trouble sleeping and eating in the future."

As he spoke, he took out the prescription, placed it on the table, and gently pushed it in front of Xie Yiran.

Xie Yiran picked up the prescription with doubt in his eyes, opened it and read it from the beginning.

After reading it, he raised his eyes and looked at Su Yun in confusion.

Su Yun said: "I heard at the Duke's Mansion that the imperial concubine might be pregnant, and then I heard what my mother-in-law said at the Jinyue Temple. I was even more suspicious. But the imperial concubine also said that the imperial physician had examined her pulse, but I still felt that something was wrong..."

He paused for a moment, then continued, "As I just said, I was probably too suspicious. I vaguely felt that Concubine Chen could do something even more vicious, so when I went to the kitchen to thank the nun who was preparing the vegetarian dishes, I smelled the medicine and learned that it was the imperial concubine's medicine, so I asked the maid to take the discarded medicine residue and bring it to the clinic."

At the end of her words, Su Yun stood up, bowed slightly to the Grand Concubine, and said apologetically: "I am sorry for any offense."

Xie Yiran was startled when he heard her words. Although he felt uncomfortable, he immediately reacted and asked anxiously, "Is there a problem with the medicine?"

Su Yun stepped forward and pointed at a herb in Xie Yiran's hand: "This herb is Five Elements Herb. If a pregnant woman consumes it, she may have a miscarriage at best, or infertility for life at worst."

Hearing this, Xie Yiran's expression gradually calmed down. He put the prescription on the table and looked at Su Yun calmly.

"Madam Gu, I know you mean well, but some things are too long to explain, and I can't open my mouth to say it, but..."

Su Yun interrupted softly: "Princess, everything is possible, isn't it?"

Perhaps apart from the results of the imperial physician's pulse diagnosis, there were other reasons that made the eldest princess certain that she would not be pregnant, but Su Yun could only persuade her in this way.

Xie Yiran was slightly stunned when he heard this. After a moment, he heard Su Yun say, "No matter what, let's get someone else to feel the pulse again."

At this point, Chu Yi's voice came from outside: "Madam, the people are here."

Upon hearing this, Xie Yiran looked at Su Yun in surprise: "Are there others?"

Su Yun nodded and explained, "The Imperial Physician Fu is a master of women's diseases. The Imperial Concubine should know about this. I asked my husband to invite him in secret."

Xie Yiran was stunned for a moment, then reacted: "But please come and feel my pulse?"

Su Yun nodded again and asked for his opinion: "I don't know what the imperial concubine thinks. If she doesn't want to, I will have Doctor Fu sent out of the palace."

At the end of the conversation, he added, "Doctor Fu came here secretly, and he didn't know it was the imperial concubine. I will not tell anyone else, so please rest assured, imperial concubine."

Recently, many people around her said that her symptoms seemed like she was pregnant, and her period was more than two months late, so she consulted a royal physician with hope.

But after examining her pulse, the imperial physician simply said that she had lost weight due to her previous miscarriage, so it was normal for her current weakness to affect her menstruation. She just needed to take some medicine to regulate her body and rest for a while.

This imperial physician had been taking her pulse for years, so she had not been too suspicious. But after hearing what Madam Gu said today, she began to feel uncertain again.

After thinking for a while, she said, "Since the person is here, let's feel his pulse again."

Su Yun breathed a sigh of relief, and then asked someone to bring two half-high curtains that had been prepared long ago, and placed the curtains in front of Xie Yiran.

Not long after, Doctor Fu came in. Su Yun exchanged a few polite words with him and then asked him to sit down and feel his pulse.

After a while, Doctor Fu said leisurely, "The pulse is flowing smoothly, like beads rolling on a jade plate. It is a happy pulse."

Su Yun's tense breath suddenly relaxed.

The person behind the curtain was stunned. After a while, she simply opened the curtain and stared at Doctor Fu in front of her with burning eyes. Xie Yiran asked in a trembling voice: "Are you sure?"

When Imperial Physician Fu saw the Crown Princess, he was startled and quickly stood up and saluted.

She asked again: "Are you sure it's pregnancy pulse?"

Doctor Fu replied: "No doubt it has been about three months."

After getting the confirmed answer again, Xie Yiran's face became dull.

There was no response from Xie Yiran for a long time, so Su Yun looked up and saw that her eyes were gradually turning red.

Perhaps he couldn't help it, and he covered his mouth again, his eyes moist.

Doctor Fu cautiously reminded him, "But the pulse is a little unstable. If you don't take care of it, I'm afraid..."

After a slight pause, he slowly said the word "miscarriage".
