In the past, Concubine Hua would never be so sensitive, but now that she was pregnant, she thought the emperor would be as happy as she was. Unexpectedly, not only was the emperor not happy about it, but he seemed to hate her very much. She could not understand and could not accept it...

"It's such a hot day. Why don't you stay in the palace to rest?!" The emperor raised his head and looked at Concubine Hua. After just one glance, his face seemed to become even darker.

"Your Majesty, I am pregnant with the heir to the throne. Aren't you happy?" Concubine Hua was also very brave. She actually asked such a question...

After hearing this, An Lingrong quietly moved aside, so as to avoid the emperor's anger and implicate herself...

The emperor looked at Concubine Hua without saying a word. Concubine Hua also looked up at the emperor. For a moment, the palace was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.

"Pa!" As expected, the emperor couldn't help himself and slapped Concubine Hua in the face.

"Your Majesty, rest your anger."

"Your Majesty, forgive me!"

An Lingrong and Concubine Hua stood up and knelt at the same time. The emperor spoke:

"Wanpin lost her child because of you, and you still dress like this! You even asked me why I am unhappy! You dare to say that you don't have ulterior motives!" The emperor spoke coldly, and Hua Fei lowered her head.

Wanpin! Wanpin! It’s Wanpin again!!!

She lost her child, so she didn't even have the right to dress herself up! ? She was just a concubine, not the queen, so she had a miscarriage, so did the whole palace have to mourn with her? !

Hua Fei was furious and raised her head and said, "Your Majesty, I can swear to heaven: 'If it was I, Nian Shilan, who caused Concubine Wan's miscarriage on purpose, I, Nian Shilan, will not die a good death! ' As Hua Fei spoke, she stretched out three fingers and swore to heaven.

The emperor glared at Concubine Hua after hearing this, but he said nothing, and his face became even darker...

An Lingrong knew that he must have been thinking of the Huan Yi Xiang that she had personally given him. The pain of shooting himself in the foot was so intense that he couldn't even find an excuse to vent his anger, and he felt so aggrieved...

"You can go back. From now on, you are not allowed to come here without an imperial decree!" The emperor's expression calmed down a little, he retracted his gaze and spoke coldly.

"Your Majesty..." Concubine Hua wanted to beg again...

"Su Peisheng!" The emperor scolded coldly, and Su Peisheng hurried forward and said, "Empress Hua, please..."

Seeing this, Songzhi hurriedly stood up and went forward to help Hua Fei up, and helped her out...

At night, in the Palace of Tranquil Longevity.

The emperor was still reviewing the memorials in front of him by lamplight when Su Peisheng walked in and said, "Your Majesty, Imperial Doctor Zhang and Xia Qian are waiting outside the door."

"Dr. Zhang, please come in." The emperor spoke, put down the pen in his hand, and Xiao Xiazi offered him a cup of tea and left.

"Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you. May the emperor be blessed with good health." Imperial Doctor Zhang entered the study and knelt down to pay his respects.

"Why is Concubine Hua suddenly pregnant? Nothing has gone wrong for so many years, what's going on this time?!" The emperor took a sip of tea and looked at Doctor Zhang.

"Your Majesty, I really don't know about this matter, but there is still musk in Concubine Hua's body, so this pregnancy should be..." Doctor Zhang said, with fine beads of sweat on his forehead, and he didn't dare to look up.

In fact, he should have looked up. If he had looked up at this moment, he would have seen the emperor nodding slightly...

"Then this baby of Concubine Hua will be left to your care. You must not reveal any of this matter. Also! You must not let her get hurt!" The emperor looked at Doctor Zhang who was kneeling below with a deep gaze.

"Wei Chen will do his best." Doctor Zhang said as he kowtowed. The emperor raised his hand and let him go out.

Xia Qian came in, knelt down and saluted, and the emperor asked him to stand up.

"Have you found out? What's going on?" The emperor looked at Xia Qi with sharp eyes.

"Your Majesty, we have found out that there was a young palace maid who served flowers and plants next to the Koi Lake. Her brother got married a few years ago, but he had never gotten pregnant. Later, she got a prescription from somewhere, and her sister-in-law got pregnant soon after. When the young palace maid talked about this with the palace servants who were serving flowers and plants with her, Concubine Hua happened to hear it, so she asked for the prescription, and then she got pregnant." Xia Qian replied with a bow.

"Have you shown the prescription to Imperial Doctor Zhang?" The emperor's expression was still calm. With Imperial Doctor Zhang's previous words, he felt relieved.

"Not yet." Xia Qian bowed and said.

"Ask Su Peisheng to take it to Doctor Zhang for a check." The emperor put down the teacup in his hand, looked at Xia Qian, and asked, "Is there anything suspicious about the little palace maid?"

"Your Majesty, I personally went to his home to check and also visited the neighbors. It is indeed as the little palace maid said..." Xia Qian continued to bow.

"Go away." Since this matter would be resolved anyway, and Concubine Hua only got the good prescription by chance, the emperor did not want others to be involved and make the matter a big deal, so he spoke.

"I'll take my leave." Xia Qian bowed and left.

Yanxi Palace.

"How do you feel? Are you feeling unwell anywhere?" In the Yanxi Palace, An Lingrong and Fu Cha were drinking tea and talking.

"As for me, I eat well and sleep well." Fu Cha touched his belly, with a smile on his face that didn't seem fake.

"That's good." An Lingrong looked at Fu Cha's round belly with a smile on her face.

"According to the date, Huan Chang will give birth next month." Fu Cha looked at An Lingrong and continued to stroke her belly.

"That's right. The weather will be cooler in another month, and I'll be more comfortable during the confinement period..."

An Lingrong recalled what Meng Zhaoxing had said before. This time, the birth would be difficult, and she didn't know who would be blamed...

"Why bother with her? It's her fault for accepting the emperor's favor in such a way that she can't stand up to public scrutiny. I hope she can learn a lesson and know her own limitations!" Fu Cha started talking, and An Lingrong smiled and said, "You, you're even more powerful than Concubine Xin now...

"I heard that Concubine Hua went to ask for an audience with the emperor yesterday, but was turned away by the emperor?" Fu Cha asked curiously.

An Lingrong nodded and said, "The whole palace was furious because of Concubine Wan's miscarriage, and no one dared to approach the emperor. But she dressed up gorgeously to meet the emperor..."

"It's something that Concubine Hua can do. With her personality, I'm afraid she won't be interested in anyone else's affairs except the Emperor and the Queen Mother.

Now that she is pregnant, won't she be even more arrogant? However, she never expected that even though she is pregnant, the emperor still doesn't treat her as before...

Tsk tsk tsk, after what happened yesterday, let’s see if she will dare to have eyes and head in the future…”

Fu Cha said this while holding An Lingrong's hand, with a smug look on his face.

"By the way, I heard that she got a good recipe for pregnancy from somewhere else, which is why she got pregnant. I've asked someone to find out for you. Tell me, what do you want to give me to thank me?"

"I don't need it for now." An Lingrong waved her hand to refuse.

"Why? Are you still afraid that I will harm you?" Fu Cha straightened up and looked at An Lingrong with a frown.

"Of course not, but I'd better wait a little longer, until you give birth to the baby safely..." An Lingrong said with a smile as she reached out and touched Fu Cha's belly.
