After Hua Fei was reborn, she became the white moonlight of Pangju

Chapter 100: Who is so vicious?

When Concubine Hua saw Doctor Chen’s serious expression, the smile on her face gradually faded.

"Doctor Chen, there are only you and me here, so feel free to speak up if you have anything to say."

Doctor Chen frowned and thought for a long time before he said slowly, "Madam, this Huan Yi incense is mixed with a lot of musk. You light it day and night, how can you get pregnant?"

Hua Fei's face turned pale.

"Doctor Chen, are you sure that this Huanyi incense is mixed with a lot of musk?"

Doctor Chen nodded solemnly, "I have been practicing medicine for decades. I guarantee with my life that everything I say is true!"

Hua Fei's face became increasingly paler and uglier. She leaned weakly on the chair and did not speak for a long time.

Doctor Chen knew that this fact was a great blow to her, so he asked cautiously: "Madam, who is so vicious?"

Concubine Hua came back to her senses, and her expression became extremely serious.

"Doctor Chen, what happened today must not be known to anyone else, not even my brother!"

"Your Majesty, why? Someone is trying to harm you!" Doctor Chen and Nian Gengyao have been friends for many years, so he was also very worried about Concubine Hua's situation.

Concubine Hua said solemnly, "The person who gave me this incense, let alone me, can't afford to offend even my brother who holds military power. You walk out of this room and pretend you know nothing. If someone asks you anything, just say that it's because of the root cause of my miscarriage that I can't get pregnant again. Do you understand?"

Hearing this, cold sweat broke out on Doctor Chen's back.

If they couldn't afford to offend Nian Gengyao, who held military power, then they could only offend the royal family. Which royal family wanted to harm Concubine Hua? The Queen, the Queen Mother, or...

The more Doctor Chen thought about it, the more scared he became.

After leaving Yikun Palace, Doctor Chen planned to go back to Qinghai directly. However, he was stopped by Aunt Zhuxi halfway.

"I heard that Doctor Chen is an excellent doctor, and the Queen Mother wants to see him."

Since it was the Queen Mother, Doctor Chen dared not not go. When he arrived at Shoukang Palace, Doctor Chen did not see the Queen Mother, but was arranged to stay in a small room.

Aunt Zhuxi asked, "What did Doctor Chen think of Concubine Hua's health?"

Doctor Chen thought of Concubine Hua's instructions and sighed, "Alas, Concubine Hua has developed a chronic illness after her miscarriage. I'm afraid it will be difficult for her to conceive a heir again."

Aunt Zhuxi was furious, "Don't talk nonsense! Concubine Hua is in her prime, there will be plenty of opportunities for her to conceive a heir to the throne!"

Doctor Chen knelt on the ground in shock, and said tremblingly: "Everything I said is true!"

He prostrated himself on the ground, knocking his head against the ground, not daring to move.

After a while, Aunt Zhuxi said, "Get up. Considering that it's not easy for you to come here, the Queen Mother has specially granted you 500 taels of gold. If you don't have anything to do in the future, don't come to the capital."

Doctor Chen thanked him again.

"Thank you, Queen Mother!"

Doctor Chen breathed a sigh of relief when he got on the carriage back to Qinghai with 500 taels of gold in his hand. Looking at the glittering gold and silver in his arms, he smiled bitterly.

"I never thought that the highest medical fee I ever received was because of telling such a lie."

Doctor Chen still felt scared when he thought about being alone with Aunt Zhuxi just now. Fortunately, he lied according to Concubine Hua's instructions, otherwise he would have to die in this deep palace.

The Hall of Nourishing Heart.

The sudden arrival of the Queen Mother caught the Emperor off guard.

"My Queen Mother, it's so cold, why don't you stay indoors and warm yourself by the fire instead of suffering here?"

The emperor put down the red brush in his hand, walked forward, and helped the empress dowager sit on the warm couch.

The Queen Mother glanced at the palace maids and eunuchs around her, and the Emperor understood and asked them to leave.

There were only the Empress Dowager and the Emperor in the room, and a burning charcoal stove that occasionally made crackling sounds.

"The Concubine Hua has invited Doctor Chen, a skilled doctor, to treat her. Does the Emperor know about this?"

The emperor paused for a moment and poured a bowl of ginger tea for the empress dowager.

"I just learned about this as well. Madam, do you think there is anything strange about this?"

The empress dowager looked at the emperor who seemed completely unaware of what was happening, sighed softly and shook her head.

"Fortunately, nothing happened and everything went well. Concubine Hua still believed that her miscarriage caused her infertility."

The emperor fell into a brief moment of contemplation.

"No matter how you look at it, I have let Concubine Hua down. If her brother wasn't Nian Gengyao, maybe I could be honest with her and have children with her."

"There are no ifs in this world. Although Shilan has a bad temper, he seems to have changed in recent days and often comes to my Shoukang Palace to pay respects. I think this child is not a bad person by nature. When the emperor is dealing with Nian Gengyao, please do not be too harsh on Concubine Hua because she has been with you for many years."

The emperor nodded, "Son knows. As long as Concubine Hua behaves herself, son will give her the honor she deserves."

The Queen Mother let out a long breath.

"Alas, Shilan is actually pitiful. Recently, when she came to my Shoukang Palace, she always blamed herself in front of me for not being able to give birth to a child for you. I felt upset when I heard it, but I couldn't tell her the truth."

The emperor lowered his eyes and twirled the Buddhist beads with slower and slower speed.

"This is my son's fault. He is incompetent and has to rely on Nian Gengyao, so he has to resort to this bad idea. My son has caused trouble for the Empress Dowager."

The Queen Mother waved her hand, with the corners of her eyes slightly red.

"No matter what, treat Shilan well. Alas, the women in the harem are all vying for fame, wealth, power and influence. I'm afraid Shilan is the only one who still has some sincerity towards the emperor."

These words touched the emperor's heart.

"The son understands, the son knows what to do."

Thinking that Concubine Hua would not be able to have children from now on, the Emperor felt a little guilty.

"My Queen Mother, I have an idea."

The Queen Mother wiped away her tears and became expressionless again.

"what idea?"

"Si'erge's biological mother is no longer around. How about adopting him to Concubine Hua?"

The Queen Mother frowned.

"Your Majesty, this is a good idea. However, the Fourth Prince's mother is of humble origin and is not liked by the Emperor. Will Concubine Hua agree?"

The emperor was also in a dilemma.

"Didn't the Empress Dowager just say that Concubine Hua always blames herself for not being able to give me a child? I will give her one."

The Queen Mother's brows furrowed even more tightly.

"Your Majesty is sincere, and I understand. But I am afraid that Shilan is too proud to accept the Fourth Prince. It will be embarrassing then."

"What the Empress Dowager reminded me of is that Concubine Hua has always been arrogant. I will first sound out the situation and see what Concubine Hua thinks."

"That's the best. Otherwise, if this matter gets out and Concubine Hua refuses to accept the Fourth Prince, how will the Fourth Prince survive in the palace? After all, the Fourth Prince is your own flesh and blood."

"My son understands. He will definitely handle this matter properly."

After hearing what the emperor said, the empress dowager felt relieved.

I hope that Concubine Hua can really accept the Fourth Prince as her adopted son.
