An Lingrong's Rebirth: Red

Poor Shen Meizhuang was in so much pain that she couldn't even scream, but the Queen and Concubine Hua had no intention of even looking at her.

The two of them kept harping on the matter of Concubine Li, and were both thinking in their hearts how they could bring Concubine Li to their own palace.

Seeing that the Queen had been using Zhou Ninghai's excuse for blocking Concubine Li's mouth, Cao Qinmo immediately stepped forward and signaled Zhou Ninghai to let go.

The moment she was freed from the shackles, Concubine Li only had time to say "hmm" before Cao Qinmo grabbed her neck and blocked her mouth.

She leaned close to Lipin's ear and whispered something. Lipin immediately stopped struggling and began to tremble all over.

"Lady Cao, why are you pinching Lipin's neck? Did you do something bad and want to kill her to silence her?"

Cao Qinmo immediately let go of her hand and bowed to the queen. Without Cao Qinmo's support, Lipin collapsed to the ground like a weak shrimp, mumbling something like "there's a ghost".

Jianqiu reacted very quickly. She ran quickly to Lipin and helped her up while asking how could Lipin be so careless.

"Why me... there's a ghost, a ghost wants to kill me..."

"My Lady Lipin... who wants to kill you?"

"Xiao, Xiao Yinzi...he turned into a ghost, he turned into a ghost..."

Jianqiu glanced at the Queen from afar and wanted to support Lipin over, but unexpectedly she was stopped by Songzhi halfway. Both of them supported Lipin tightly and neither of them was willing to let go.

"It's not me...Zhen Huan! It's Zhen Huan!" Concubine Li suddenly started to struggle again. She waved her fists wildly, making Jianqiu and Songzhi dodge repeatedly.

"Zhen Huan, Zhen Huan is going to be killed, Concubine Hua, please save me, Empress, please save me... please save me..."

"Why would Xiao Yinzi want to kill Lady Lipin?" Jianqiu reluctantly grabbed Lipin's hand, and while Songzhi wasn't paying attention, she began to induce Lipin to speak out.

"Because, no! I can't tell you, I'll die, I will!"

Concubine Li cried for a long time but didn't say a single useful word.

At this time, the imperial physician had already arrived, and it was not appropriate for the Queen and Concubine Hua to continue arguing about this matter.

The Queen directly ordered that Concubine Li be brought back to Wuling Chunse. Even if Concubine Hua was unwilling, she had to listen to the words of the most powerful master in the harem.

Concubine Li was taken away by Jianqiu and Jiang Fuhai. The Queen finally calmed down and went to care about Concubine Hui who was still lying under the tree.

Imperial Physician Zhou and Imperial Physician Zhang were taking my pulse respectively, their frowned brows made people feel particularly worried.

"How is it?"

Imperial Doctor Zhang and Imperial Doctor Zhou looked at each other, and both saw affirmation on their faces before they slowly spoke back, "To answer the Empress, Concubine Hui and the heir in her belly are fine, all thanks to the good care she has taken."

Although the queen was disappointed, she still pretended to be happy. "That's really a great thing. Look at this noble lady Hui. She is so blessed."

Wen Shichu finally had the chance to step forward. He frowned and felt Shen Meizhuang's pulse, which made her feel terrified.

Fortunately, Wen Shichu took her pulse for a while and gave the same answer that everything was fine. Only then did Shen Meizhuang finally feel relieved.

"This on the clothes..." As Shen Meizhuang was helped up by everyone, the Queen saw the red palm marks on Shen Meizhuang's clothes. She was shocked and asked Doctor Zhang to come over and take her pulse.

"Let's check again. Could it be that Concubine Hui was injured? Why is there so much blood in her stomach?"

Zhang Mi was also startled, and immediately held Shen Meizhuang's wrist and examined her again and again.

But the pulse is indeed stable, and there is nothing wrong with it...

"Lady Hui, do you have any abdominal pain at this moment?"

After the intense pain just now passed, Shen Meizhuang no longer felt any pain. She touched her stomach and, as expected, felt bright red blood.

She screamed in surprise, attracting everyone's attention and seeing the bloody palm print.

Many people were whispering in their ears, discussing whether Hui Guiren was the mastermind behind the incident and was the reason why she was hit in the stomach by the white shadow.

"Empress, Concubine Hui's pulse is indeed stable at this moment, and there is no sign of redness in the stool or abdominal pain, so I think she is fine.

As for the red color on the fabric, it was just printed on.”

Zhang Mi picked up a little red, put it to his nose and sniffed it again and again, "This red thing is indeed blood."

"Immediately send Concubine Hui back to Bitong Academy." Seeing Shen Meizhuang's good luck, the Queen couldn't help but feel annoyed. She looked at Zhen Huan who was crying beside her, "Cai Xing, remember to check if Concubine Hui has any other wounds on her body.

If you find any problems, come to Wuling Spring Scenery immediately, understand?"

"I understand." Cai Xing held Shen Meizhuang tightly. She used a handkerchief to wipe the blood stains on Shen Meizhuang's clothes, but the blood stains had already seeped into the inside and could not be wiped clean no matter how she wiped.

"Sister Mei, I will take you back to Bitong Academy." Zhen Huan finally stopped crying. She took the initiative to help Shen Meizhuang get on the sedan chair called by the Queen, and returned to Bitong Academy with three imperial doctors.

Hua Fei wanted to argue with the Queen about Li Bin, but the Queen interrupted her with a wave of her hand, telling everyone to return to their own palaces and not stay outside for too long.

Ling Rong and Xia Dongchun were both very brave, so they did not feel scared when everyone ran over.

On the contrary, Fu Changzai was very timid and followed Xia Dongchun closely.

"Are you not scared, sister?" Jingpin saw Lingrong still standing there, thinking she was scared, so she walked over, "Such a huge noise, I think someone must have done it."

Ling Rong naturally agreed with Jingpin's statement, but she pretended to be frightened and held Jingpin's wrist tightly, "Sister, the white shadow disappeared directly, is it that Xiao Yinzi...really came back."

The white shadow did disappear suddenly. Jingpin was still frightened when she thought about it now, but she always felt that this was a human act. "Even if it was him, he would not harm my sister. Every wrong has its perpetrator. The one we should be afraid of is the mastermind behind the scenes."

"I'm always panicking." Ling Rong made up her mind and took advantage of the fact that she was frightened by the ghost to hide in Shuimu Mingse to take care of her pregnancy. She pulled Jingpin and begged, "Sister, can you accompany me to the tree to take a look? If it was man-made, I think there would be some traces left."

Jingpin had the power to assist in managing the six palaces. She really needed to thoroughly investigate the matter of the white shadow and restore order to the harem.

Therefore, he did not reject Ling Rong's suggestion, and the two of them slowly moved to the tree where Shen Meizhuang had just fallen.

The ground was very clean. The two men looked for a long time before they finally found a piece of white cloth on a stone under the tree.

Jingpin picked up the piece of cloth and looked through it for a long time but couldn't find anything special about it.

"I remember that there was a dark pattern of chrysanthemums on the mica white cheongsam worn by Concubine Hui, but there is none on this piece of cloth." Ling Rong stroked the material. It had a rough texture and didn't look like the kind used by the ladies in the harem.

"Then this cloth might be from that white shadow."

Jingpin walked around the tree a few more times but found nothing more.

"It's strange. If the white shadow was a person, how could it disappear so quickly? If it wasn't a person, how could it leave this piece of cloth behind?"

Jingpin looked around unwillingly, then raised her head to look carefully at the layers of green leaves on the treetops.

At this moment, the sky rumbled with thunder again, and the lightning flashed through the sky, which looked particularly terrifying. The next moment, the leaves began to rustle, and a heavy rain fell with a sudden breeze.

As the rain grew heavier, the two could no longer stay here and had to reluctantly return to the palace.

It was raining heavily, and the whole world seemed to be merged into one by the dripping rain.

After Jingpin and Lingrong left, a man suddenly jumped down from the tree, holding something in his arms, and walked away quickly.

All traces were washed away by the rain, except for the piece of white cloth still in Jingpin's hand.

I heard that the emperor went to Bitong Academy to visit Shen Meizhuang that night. He wanted to stay and accompany the frightened Shen Meizhuang, but because the thunder was too loud, he ran to Yuedi Yunju.

Not only was Zhen Huan not affected by the accusation, but she regained the emperor's favor, even more favored than Concubine Hui who was pregnant with the emperor's heir.

As for the Queen, she detained Concubine Li for the whole night but failed to get any useful information.

Lipin just kept repeating that there was a ghost. She looked dazed and stupid, and no one knew if she was scared crazy.

"My lady, I heard that Bitong Academy called over a dozen doctors early in the morning. Concubine Hui was suffering from severe abdominal pain, and no one knew what had happened."

Ling Rong was drawing her eyebrows in front of the mirror. She was quite nonchalant, "Then, Doctor Wen, have you been there?"

"Yes. But he is still only a healer, and is not qualified to go."

"Noble Lady Hui believes in him, and so does Concubine Zhen, so he can go." Ling Rong finally finished drawing her eyebrows. She carefully looked at her face in the mirror, "It's just that Noble Lady Hui is having a bad pregnancy, I'm afraid someone has done something to her."

Zhaoshui slowly combed Lingrong's hair. She occasionally glanced outside the door and spoke cautiously, "Baoque... also took action."

Ling Rong subconsciously looked at the flowers on the table. It took her a while to come back to her senses and look at the water in the mirror.

"What did you release this time?"

"Yesterday, they only used the powder that caused nightmares, but today they started adding some musk." Zhaoshui was quite worried. She lowered her voice and leaned close to Lingrong's ear, "My lady, Baoque must have already known about it."

Lingrong was also a little doubtful at this time. She touched her belly and really felt that she could not keep this precious baby.

But she still needed to test whether the master behind Baoque knew that she was pregnant.

"Call Baoque over to chat."

Zhaoshui helped Lingrong comb her hair, and after she was tidy, she called Baoque in.

Bao Que still didn't know what was going on, and ran in with a bouquet of flowers that arrived just in time.

"Look, my dear, the flowers are so beautiful. I'll change them for you, okay?"

Ling Rong nodded, and Bao Que immediately went over to replace the wilted flower in the vase.

"Bao Que, you have been following me for a long time."

"Since you came to this palace, I have been following you." Bao Que smiled adorably, holding the flowers carefully in her hands. "What's wrong with you today? Are you thinking about the past?"

"Yes. I've been having nightmares these past few days. I often dream about Baojuan, and I don't know why."

Ling Rong held her forehead and looked like she really had trouble sleeping. "Plus, I saw that white shadow yesterday. I was really worried that Bao Juan was back."

"No, young lady." When Baojuan was mentioned, even Baoque's face turned pale. She tightened her hands holding the flowers, "Baojuan... Baojuan did something wrong. It wasn't your fault."

Ling Rong raised her eyes to look at Bao Que. She glanced at the flowers and said meaningfully, "I'm afraid that although you know about it, others don't, and they are trying to harm me.

I was pregnant before, and she put musk in the charcoal basket. If someone else follows her example, it would mean that I will never get pregnant again."

Baoque bit her lower lip, glanced at the newly replaced flowers, and a hint of hesitation appeared on her face.

But soon, she smiled and said, "I will check it inside and out to prevent those harmful things from appearing.

What you need to do now is to take good care of yourself so that you can get pregnant like Concubine Hui soon."

"Okay," Lingrong also smiled, "Help me make a bowl of medicine from Concubine Hui. Although the emperor hasn't come for a long time, it would be good to recuperate."

Bao Que cried out "Ah" and ran out as if she had been pardoned. She didn't know that Ling Rong was pregnant. The musk placed on the flowers was just a precaution by her master behind her.

Just like the red musk beads on Concubine Qi's neck in her previous life, it was to prevent herself from getting pregnant again.

"It's been raining so hard these past few days, Bao Que has been running around so much that he's bound to catch a cold."

Zhaoshui was holding the newly replaced flowers, carefully checking whether there was any other powder sprinkled on them. Lingrong's words made her stunned for a long time, and it took her a long time to realize that the young master wanted her to deal with Baoque.

It has rained heavily in the past few days, and it is indeed easy to catch a cold, which can be fatal if it is severe.

After a few more days, Shen Meizhuang still couldn't sleep well. She had severe abdominal pain, but the imperial physician couldn't find out what the disease was.

The imperial doctors could only stay on duty all night long, fearing that something might happen to the royal heir.

Especially Wen Shichu, who almost lived in Bitong Academy, but with his medical skills he still couldn't cure Shen Meizhuang.

Seeing Shen Meizhuang so unbearable, the emperor was very anxious, but the imperial physician could not find out the reason. In the end, he could only listen to Zhen Huan's advice and call the Imperial Observatory to take a look.

However, the chief envoy of the Imperial Observatory was ill and did not arrive, just like in the previous life, so the deputy envoy Ji Weisheng rushed over instead.

He admitted that he often observed the stars today and found that the Purple Star was flickering unsteadily, and he was afraid that something serious might happen in the palace that would endanger the emperor's life.

Today, looking at the situation at Bitong Academy, I am afraid that the Dragon Heir has been hit by the Yin Qi in recent days. The Dragon Heir is connected to the Emperor by blood, which caused the Purple Star to show abnormality.

"Then how should we deal with it?"

When the emperor heard that his life was involved, he was naturally a little angry, but he was the king of a country after all, so he never got angry with Shen Meizhuang.

"I think we need to find a magician to exorcise the evil spirit for Lady Hui, so as to prevent the heir to the throne from getting sick and affecting the emperor's body."

With that said, how could the emperor not agree? On that day, a high monk entered the garden. He just stood at the gate of Bitong Academy and watched for a while, then he sighed softly.

"This is a ghost fetus."
