An Lingrong's Rebirth: Changing Fate from the Suiyuxuan

Chapter 224: Concubine Jing's Case

Liu Bin felt that what he said was "flawless". After all, he was the imperial physician who was specifically responsible for taking care of Shen Meizhuang, and on this point, he was even recognized by the emperor.

So, after he said this, even Concubine Jing couldn't blame him for anything, right?

Thinking of this, a hint of pride appeared in Liu Bin's eyes.

"Caiyue, is that so?"

Jingpin did not do as Liu Bin expected. After hearing these words, she immediately blamed Caiyue and let herself in. Instead, she put her aside and asked Caiyue whether the situation was true.

Jingpin's action naturally caused Liu Bin's dissatisfaction.

However, in front of the master of Xianfu Palace, Liu Bin knew when to advance and retreat. He suppressed his inner thoughts and did not show them at all.

"Of course not!"

After getting the chance to speak, Caiyue said to Jingpin bluntly, "Reporting to Madam Jingpin, the young lady has indeed had some morning sickness recently, but it is not as severe as Imperial Physician Liu said. Otherwise, even if the young lady did not want to make it public, how could we dare to hide it? She would definitely have asked the imperial physician from the Imperial Hospital to see her early in the morning, and would not have waited for Imperial Physician Liu to rush over himself!"

"You bullshit!"

Seeing that Caiyue was contradicting him again, Liu Bin's eyes widened immediately. He stepped forward and said confidently, "You said that Concubine Shen's condition is not that serious now, so why is she bedridden? This has clearly been delayed for a long time! I understand, it must be that you servants are not serving her diligently on weekdays, and you are afraid of being punished after being found out, so you keep stopping me!"

"Doctor Liu, are you confused?"

Caiyue seemed to be amused by Liu Bin's specious arguments. She took a deep breath and knelt down in front of Jingpin again, "Your Majesty! It doesn't matter if Imperial Doctor Liu slandered me, but the young lady is really fine!"

"That's enough, stop arguing."

Seeing that they each insisted on their own opinions, Jingpin was a little overwhelmed by the quarrel. At the same time, she did not want to disturb Shen Meiyu, so she took them to her own yard.

"Caiyue, you said that Concubine Shen did have morning sickness, but it wasn't as serious as Imperial Physician Liu said, so you didn't report it to the Imperial Hospital, right?"

Since the two people's statements were completely different, Jingpin felt that there must be something fishy and decided to get to the bottom of it.

She asked Caiyue first. Caiyue nodded and said, "Since the previous incident, the young lady has been frightened and can't sleep well at night. She often wakes up from her dreams. I stay by your side every night and know everything."

Having said that, Caiyue first glanced at Jingpin, then looked in the direction where Liu Bin was standing.

This glance was very straightforward, and Jingpin of course noticed the change in Caiyue's eyes, and at the same time a question also came to her mind.

"Doctor Liu, please don't rush to refute me. I have a question for you now. You just need to remember to answer whatever I ask. As for the right and wrong of this matter, I will make the judgment later."

When Jingpin saw that Liu Bin was about to refute Caiyue after she finished speaking, she immediately warned him.

Seeing that Jingpin had an incorruptible look on her face, Liu Bin felt embarrassed and nodded quickly to show that he understood.

Jingpin said, "You said earlier that you learned that Concubine Shen was suffering from severe morning sickness, and thought that the efficacy of the medicine you had prescribed earlier might have decreased, so you rushed over to check Concubine Shen's pulse so that you could adjust the medicine and prescribe a new prescription, right?"

Liu Bin felt guilty under Jingpin's stern gaze, but he remained calm on the surface and nodded, "Not bad!"

"Oh, then I have to ask you again, how did you know that Concubine Shen was not in good health? You are the imperial physician, and you have to be on duty at the Imperial Hospital on weekdays. In addition to going to various palaces to check the pulses of concubines on time, you are not allowed to move around without permission unless you are asked. Where did you hear these words?"

Jingpin had originally looked calm, but as she said this, her expression suddenly became severe.

"Your humble servant - Your humble servant heard the palace maid from Cun Ju Hall mention it unintentionally!"

Liu Bin was dumbfounded by Jingpin's questioning. Fortunately, he reacted immediately and said hurriedly, "Two days ago, I just checked the pulse of Concubine Shen. Then a maid from Cunju Hall came to get medicine. I took the opportunity to ask about Concubine Shen's condition. That's how I learned..."

"Oh?"

Jingpin raised her eyebrows, then looked at Caiyue beside her, "Is that true?"

Caiyue said, "Reporting to the queen, the one who usually helps the young lady to go to the Imperial Hospital to get medicine is a new little girl. She usually just cleans up and doesn't serve the young lady. If you say that Doctor Liu heard this from her, it can only mean that this girl doesn't work hard on weekdays, but secretly spies on the young lady!"

Liu Bin originally wanted to refute, but considering that he was now in a difficult situation, in order to quickly dispel his own suspicion, he remained silent.

It was also his fault for being careless. He thought his idea was perfect, but he ended up overlooking a crucial point.

After all, Shen Meizhuang is a concubine and the emperor's woman. Even if she is pregnant now and needs my care as an imperial physician, that is not a reason for me to enter and leave her residence at will.

Moreover, it was certainly impossible for Liu Bin to tell the truth about the source of the information he learned about Shen Meizhuang's physical condition.

What could he say?

Could it be that for Concubine Jing, all of this was Cao Qinmo's plan?

Although, Concubine Hua did place her own people in Xianfu Palace, and now they have been sold out by him, all this was to protect herself, as well as Concubine Hua and Cao Qinmo behind the scenes!

Liu Bin knew that since Jingpin had asked this question just now, it meant that she must have doubts in her heart.

But this is not important. They just need to get through this hurdle first. They will definitely have to deal with the "hidden agent" later. By that time, she will have escaped, and there will be no evidence to point to Concubine Hua as the mastermind behind all this. Then this matter will only become an "accident."

"Forget it, I know what's going on."

After listening to Caiyue's words, Jingpin was silent for a while, and then said to Liu Bin: "Since we just checked the pulse of Concubine Shen two days ago, let's not break the rules and do as usual. In addition, Doctor Liu, I also want to advise you that this Xianfu Palace is not a place you can just walk into casually. If you break the rules again next time, I will definitely report it to the emperor. Even if it is for your own future, you must think twice before you act!"

After saying this, Jingpin did not give Liu Bin a chance to speak and directly ordered the guest to be sent away.

Liu Bin watched Jingpin take Caiyue away and gritted his teeth, but dared not say much. After being sent out of Xianfu Palace, he turned and went towards Cao Qinmo's palace.
