Chapter 753: Concubine Chen asked Doctor Tang to deceive everyone
Concubine Liang said gently, "No need to be polite, get up."
Then, she set her eyes on Chu'er and calmly probed: "I heard that Concubine Chen left not long ago and specially recommended her most trusted doctor Tang to Your Majesty to treat Sister Hao. Why do you feel relieved only when you see me?"
Chu Er seemed to be afraid that her next words would be heard. She looked at the door and made sure that no one was outside before she lowered her voice and said, "Madam Liang, our madam has given birth to the fifth prince. I'm afraid the most anxious person right now is Madam Chen. How can we trust her and the imperial physician she sent?"
"Our queen has always been worried that Doctor Tang would follow the orders of Concubine Chen and murder her. She even dared not drink the medicine prescribed by Doctor Tang."
"What a pity... Doctor Xu was framed by Concubine Chen and imprisoned in the Ministry of Punishment. Now we don't even have a single person we can trust..."
"You are finally here, Madam Liang Fei. I am relieved now."
When Chu'er said this, his tone was full of respect and dependence as always.
No one knows how much effort she put in to suppress the hatred in her heart!
Ruoli secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Before she and the Empress came here, she was worried that the Imperial Concubine Chen was so concerned about the Imperial Concubine Hao, and whether she knew something. What if the Imperial Concubine Hao was instigated by the Imperial Concubine Chen to rebel?
Now it seems that she is overthinking.
Concubine Hao regards Concubine Liang as her own sister, so how could she be bought by other people's small favors?
The corners of Concubine Liang's lips curved up: "Since sister Haopin calls me sister, I will naturally take good care of her."
"It's just that... the doctor Xu whom I recommended was considered by His Majesty to be of poor medical skills. I can't rashly send anyone else to take care of Sister Hao."
"The judge of the Heyuan Court is here. Even if the imperial physician Tang is extremely bold, he would not dare to do anything to sister Haopin."
The vigilance in Chu'er's eyes still did not fade: "I hope so..."
"But he is the concubine Chen's man, I can't believe him."
Concubine Liang turned her head and looked at the bed.
Seeing that the sleeping Concubine Hao had thin cheeks, pale face, and looked extremely weak, her eyes were filled with heartache.
It seemed that Concubine Liang could not bear to watch any longer. She turned her face away and pressed the wet corners of her eyes with a handkerchief. Her tone was distressed and a little apologetic: "Poor sister Haopin, you are so beautiful, how could you become like this?"
"It's all my fault. If I had taken good care of Concubine Hao and prevented her from getting a miscarriage due to the collision with Concubine Wu, she wouldn't have become like this..."
"Sister Haopin, for me and the Fifth Prince, you must get better soon!"
Ruoli gently advised, "Your Highness, you have been taking care of Concubine Hao for the past six months, doing everything yourself, and you have become tired and thinner. Who dares to say that you are not doing your best?"
"But Concubine Hao's unexpected miscarriage was not something you could have predicted, so please don't blame yourself..."
Chu'er stood by and watched the master and servant singing the same tune.
If it were in the past, she would definitely be extremely moved and wonder how could there be such a good person like Concubine Liang in the world.
It is definitely not Concubine Liang's fault that her own queen has become like this. It was others who caused her to have a miscarriage!
But after understanding Concubine Liang's true face, Chu'er was left with only a sneer in her heart.
This smiling tiger keeps saying words of self-blame, isn't it just to shift the blame to others?
Empress Liang and Ruoli knew that she would tell the Empress everything that happened in the inner chamber after she woke up, so they staged this drama in front of her.
Chu'er really couldn't continue to say compliments against her will, and she was also afraid that she had said too much and couldn't control the hatred that was showing, so she just lowered her head and wiped away her tears.
It’s not worth it to feel sorry for the queen.
I also feel sorry for them for trusting the wrong person.
After a long time, Concubine Liang seemed to calm down.
Her gentle eyes were filled with concern for Concubine Hao. She looked at Chu'er and asked gently, "How is Concubine Hao's health? What did the imperial physician say?"
"If there are any medicinal herbs you need, just tell me. No matter how precious they are, I will get them for Sister Haopin!"
Chu Er followed Concubine Hao's instructions and lowered her head and said, "Replying to Concubine Liang, Imperial Physician Tang said that although our Concubine had postpartum hemorrhage, fortunately the bleeding stopped in time and will not endanger her life. It's just that she will have to take good care of herself for a long time before her body slowly recovers."
"Although I don't trust Doctor Tang, your majesty has ordered him to treat our queen. I'm sure he wouldn't dare to commit the crime of deceiving the emperor even if he had ten thousand guts."
"Our queen has finally come to an end. Once she recovers, she will be able to raise the fifth prince."
"All of this is thanks to the care of Concubine Liang. I would like to thank Concubine Liang on behalf of our queen!"
Ruoli's expression changed instantly!
Although Concubine Liang's eyes flickered, she still looked compassionate and motioned for Ruoli to help Chu'er up: "That's good, that's good."
"As long as sister Haopin and the fifth prince are safe, I will be happy for her!"
Chu'er wondered how angry Concubine Liang must have been when she said this.
"Okay, I won't disturb Sister Haopin's rest. I'll go back first."
"When Sister Hao wakes up, tell her that I will come to see her tomorrow."
Chu Er said respectfully, "Yes."
Along the way, Ruoli refrained from speaking out of fear that walls might have ears.
When she returned to Changchun Palace, she finally couldn't help it and said anxiously: "Your Majesty, Concubine Hao is already the head of the palace. If she doesn't die, how can you raise the fifth prince?!"
"I have never heard of any friendship between Concubine Chen and Concubine Hao before. Why did she order Imperial Doctor Tang to save Concubine Hao this time?"
"Isn't Concubine Chen worried that Concubine Hao's position is getting higher and higher, and with the Fifth Prince by her side, she will become a big worry for her in the future?"
"I am increasingly confused as to what she is thinking..."
Concubine Liang slowly lit the sandalwood in her hand, bowed three times, and then inserted it into the incense burner in front of her. She then said, "Perhaps it was the Buddha's mercy that allowed Sister Haopin to survive."
"But who knows...did she really survive, or just pretend to survive?"
Having said this, the corners of Concubine Liang's lips slowly curved up, and her solemn appearance was quite similar to the Buddha statue behind her.
Ruoli was stunned and asked in confusion: "My lady, what do you mean?"
Concubine Liang said slowly: "Don't look at the young age of Concubine Chen, she is very cunning. Would she do something that is not beneficial?"
"Besides, since ancient times, how many women who suffered from postpartum hemorrhage could survive?"
Ruoli became more and more confused as he listened: "...You mean, Concubine Chen asked Doctor Tang to deceive everyone?"
