Chapter 735 Premature Birth
Shen Zhinian smiled faintly: "Whatever method, as long as it works, it's fine."
Handan nodded heavily: "Your Majesty is right. Now we just have to wait for the result of Xiao Zhouzi."
After staying in the palace for so long, even the simplest Handan has understood many things.
No one asked Shen Zhinian, since he knew that there was most likely something wrong with Concubine Hao's pregnancy, why he didn't report the matter to His Majesty?
If Your Majesty sends the chief judge of the Imperial Medical Bureau to take Concubine Hao's pulse, would Concubine Hao dare to refuse?
Those who can ask these questions are still too naive and not suitable for survival in the harem...
The palace is full of dangers. If you take a wrong step, you may end up in an irreparable situation.
Who knows if this was a deliberate trap set up by Concubine Hao and Concubine Liang, pretending to be weak and waiting for others to jump in.
If Shen Zhinian reported the matter to Nangong Xuanyu in a hurry, and finally found out that nothing happened to Concubine Hao, how would she end it?
By then, if Concubine Hao and Concubine Liang join forces again and say that Shen Zhinian has bad intentions and wants to use this incident to throw dirty water on Concubine Liang, wouldn't she be in trouble?
Even if Shen Zhinian didn't implicate Concubine Liang, he just said that he was worried about Concubine Hao's health and asked other imperial doctors to take her pulse.
But Concubine Liang had been in charge of Concubine Hao's pregnancy. Wasn't it obvious that Shen Zhinian didn't trust Concubine Liang by doing this?
She is one of the four concubines after all. How is it different from humiliation for her to be questioned by Shen Zhinian when she has done nothing wrong?
If the final result is that Concubine Hao is fine, everyone will think that Concubine Chen is bullying others by abusing her power, and her prestige in the harem will be greatly reduced.
Given Shen Zhinian's cautiousness, he would not take this risk easily.
Let's take a step back...even if it was really discovered that there was something wrong with Concubine Hao's pregnancy, how did Shen Zhinian know about this when no one in the harem knew about it?
Although everyone knew that Tang Luochuan was Shen Zhinian's man, the emperor might also have an idea of this.
But for some things, keeping it tacitly is one thing, and making it public is another.
From the perspective of the emperor, Tang Luochuan's loyalty to Shen Zhinian has reached this level. Today, he can help Shen Zhinian violate the taboo of the Imperial Hospital and investigate the heirs of the emperor who are in charge of other imperial doctors.
Who knows if he won't do something bad to other royal heirs and concubines for her tomorrow?
How could Shen Zhinian put his trump card out in the open and cause countless people to be wary?
Of course, the most important thing is that with Concubine Liang’s intelligence, if she really did anything to Concubine Hao’s royal heir, she must have thought of a way out.
Even if Shen Zhinian made the matter public, she might not be able to bring down Concubine Liang. She might even take the opportunity to turn the tables.
The best way is to find evidence quietly and catch Concubine Liang off guard!
……
Shuiyuexuan.
Concubine Hao lay weakly on the bed, her face pale without a trace of blood.
Her chin was extremely pointed, her limbs were also very thin, and only her abdomen was bulging high.
Perhaps she felt that her body was getting weaker, and Concubine Hao was extremely panicked.
I don’t know since when, Concubine Liang has become the hope and life-saving straw in her heart.
Seeing that Concubine Liang came to see her again, Concubine Hao pulled the corners of her lips with difficulty, revealing a smile, and looked at her with eyes full of attachment: "I can't stand up and salute Sister Liang, I hope Sister will not blame me."
"Good sister, you're welcome."
Concubine Liang held Concubine Hao's hands and sat down beside the bed: "Your health is the most important."
"There's no need for us to talk about those empty formalities between sisters."
Concubine Hao tightly grasped Concubine Liang's hand and said, "Sister Concubine Liang, I am afraid..."
"My body is so weak, can I really give birth to this baby smoothly?"
Concubine Liang smiled gently, with great appeal, and consoled her: "Sister Hao, what are you talking about? You are pregnant with a child of the royal family, and with the blessing of His Majesty's dragon energy, of course everything will be fine."
Concubine Hao showed a dejected look on her face: "But Your Majesty has not visited me for a long, long time..."
There are so many beauties in the harem, even if Concubine Hao is pregnant with the royal heir, it is impossible for her to see the emperor every day.
Nangong Xuanyu valued having children, so at the beginning, he would occasionally visit her.
But Doctor Xu said that Concubine Hao's fetus was unstable, and what she needed most was to rest and take care of the baby, and avoid getting emotional.
Which concubine wouldn’t be excited after seeing the emperor?
Since then, the emperor rarely came to Shuiyuexuan, but he would send some rewards every once in a while.
Concubine Liang smiled and comforted her, "Your Majesty is very busy with government affairs, so it is understandable that he cannot have time to visit Sister Hao."
"The things placed in Sister Hao's bedroom are all gifts from His Majesty. It shows that His Majesty still cares deeply about Sister Hao."
Chu Er also followed up: "Yes. The young lady's child is almost eight months old, and it won't be long before she is born. Once the prince is born, His Majesty will spoil you and your son to the sky!"
Concubine Hao's uneasy mood finally eased a little, and she showed a weak and shy smile: "How come you have also learned bad habits, and followed Sister Liangfei to tease me?"
Chu Er smiled and said, "What this servant said is the truth."
"My lady has always loved to eat sour food during her pregnancy. People often say that sour children will have spicy children. This must be a prince!"
"Then I shall begin to address you as 'Niangniang'."
Concubine Hao was so delighted that she felt much better.
Concubine Liang took the opportunity to have someone bring the pregnancy-preserving medicine and coaxed her to drink it.
Afterwards, Imperial Doctor Xu checked Concubine Hao's pulse and confirmed that she was safe.
Concubine Hao suddenly became nervous again: "How is it?"
"Doctor Xu, is my child okay?"
Doctor Xu's reply was the same as before: "Please rest assured, Concubine Hao. Although you are weak, the heir is fine."
"After the royal heir is born, my lady should take good care of herself during the confinement period, and her health will improve as well."
Only then did Concubine Hao nod with relief: "Thank you, Doctor Xu."
Doctor Xu bowed and said, "My lord, you are too polite. This is all my duty."
After a while, seeing that Concubine Hao had gone to bed, Concubine Liang got up and left.
"I respectfully send off Her Majesty Liang Fei!"
Chu'er looked at her back, his eyes full of gratitude.
The young lady's pregnancy has not been good. If it weren't for the careful care of Concubine Liang... I'm afraid this child wouldn't have survived until now...
Empress Liang is such a good person!
the other side.
After leaving Shuiyuexuan, Concubine Liang took Doctor Xu to a pavilion with a wide view.
Ruoli and Xiao Caizi immediately took the palace servants to guard the surrounding area.
The advantage of talking here is that you can have a clear view of the surrounding scenery and you don't have to worry about someone hiding in the dark and eavesdropping on their conversation.
Concubine Liang smiled faintly, and said in a very gentle tone: "You said a few days ago that Concubine Hao's heir is almost at the limit of her survival, and I'm afraid she will give birth prematurely soon."
