Chapter 693 Concubine Sun is Guilty
Therefore, Doctor Xu could only suppress the strange feeling in his heart, calm his mind and said: "Your Highnesses, Concubine Chen and Concubine Liang, Concubine Hao is just feeling unwell because of being tired today, and there is nothing serious."
"Go back and rest for a while, then it won't be a problem."
Concubine Hao did nothing today, she just went from Shuiyuexuan to Zhongcui Palace to pay her respects to Concubine Chen. And she even rode a sedan chair on the way here, how could she be so tired?
If this happened to someone else, no one would believe it.
But everyone in the palace knew that Concubine Hao's fetal condition had been unstable since her last miscarriage, and she had been bedridden for a long time.
It's normal to be a little delicate.
Although Concubine Hao felt a little unwell, she was not an imperial physician, so how could she know what was wrong with her.
Besides, her child had always been taken care of by Doctor Xu, and Concubine Hao trusted him very much. Hearing Doctor Xu say this, Concubine Hao also breathed a sigh of relief.
Although she wanted to speak for Concubine Liang, as Noble Lady Sun said, it was Zhang Changzai who proposed that Concubine Liang give up the power of the six palaces, and Concubine Chen had not spoken yet.
She didn't know whether Zhang Chang's action was instructed by Concubine Chen, but she couldn't care less about that at the moment. The royal heir was the most important thing.
Concubine Hao looked at Shen Zhinian weakly: "My Lady Concubine Chen, I would like to take my leave first..."
There was some suspicion in Shen Zhinian's eyes.
Looking at Concubine Hao's condition, she doesn't look like she's in good health.
"Is Concubine Hao really okay? This is a serious matter. Why don't we send other imperial doctors to take a look at you?"
Concubine Hao's eyes instantly became alert!
She doesn't trust Concubine Chen.
Or rather, ever since she became pregnant, she has been living in fear every day, and she doesn't trust anyone in the harem except Concubine Liang.
If Imperial Concubine Chen sends other imperial physicians to help her, who knows if they will take advantage of the opportunity to do something.
His Majesty dotes on Concubine Chen so much that even if something happens between her and the royal heir, I'm afraid His Majesty will not punish Concubine Chen for it.
"No, no need..."
Concubine Hao waved her hand and said, "Thank you, Concubine Chen, for your concern."
"But Concubine Liang and Doctor Xu have taken very good care of me. Doctor Xu has been in charge of my pregnancy, so I don't need to bother Concubine Chen and other doctors."
Ever since the news of Concubine Hao's pregnancy spread, Concubine Liang would visit her at Shuiyuexuan from time to time. Nangong Xuanyu also knew that Concubine Hao and Concubine Liang had a good relationship.
At that time, Shen Zhinian and Concubine Liang were both the fourth concubines, and the former had to take care of the fourth prince. So Nangong Xuanyu asked Concubine Liang to take care of Concubine Hao's heir.
Many people today felt that if Shen Zhinian was promoted to Imperial Concubine, she would seize the palace power of Concubine Liang, which was too overbearing and tyrannical.
If she were to forcibly interfere in the matters that Concubine Liang was in charge of again, rumors would probably spread in the palace again.
Shen Zhinian hid the dark color in his eyes and said, "In this case, Concubine Liang must take good care of Concubine Hao and the heir in her belly."
Concubine Liang nodded and said gently, "Please rest assured, Concubine Chen, I understand."
Shen Zhinian waved her hand and said, "Okay, it's getting late, and I'm tired, let's all go back and rest."
"Yes."
Everyone stood up and saluted: "Your servant/concubine, take your leave!"
Several low-ranking palace concubines breathed a sigh of relief only after they walked out of Zhongcui Palace.
They had gathered together in the morning and said bad things about Shen Zhinian, but were caught by Xue Fei, who then ordered them to be slapped in the face.
These people had been worried that if the matter got to the ears of Concubine Chen, they would be in trouble...
Unexpectedly, from beginning to end, Concubine Chen did not even look at them...
In the main hall, only Concubine Sun and Concubine Xue were left.
Concubine Sun picked up the teacup and took a gulp to calm herself down: "Luckily Concubine Hao is fine. I was really scared just now!"
"We are both pregnant, but I am still able to eat and walk, and I feel like I have endless energy every day. Why is Concubine Hao so delicate, as if she could be blown away by a gust of wind?"
"I don't even dare to talk to her now, for fear that any of my words would irritate her and cause a negative impact on the heir to the throne..."
Concubine Xue said calmly, "Lady Hao has not been in good health since her last miscarriage. It is not easy for her to go out today."
When she said this, there was a hint of worry between her brows.
Although Concubine Xue has no feelings for Noble Lady Hao, the child is innocent after all.
If another royal heir is born successfully in the palace, the second princess will have a younger brother or sister.
Shen Zhinian narrowed his eyes slightly, with a hint of suspicion in his eyes, and no one knew what he was thinking.
Everyone said that Concubine Hao had always been weak, and even from the time she became pregnant until now, she had been bedridden most of the time to take care of the baby. It was normal for her to be extremely weak at the slightest sign of trouble.
But for some reason, Shen Zhinian felt that something seemed to be wrong...
She put her doubts aside for the moment, looked at Concubine Xue, raised her eyebrows and said, "I heard that you punished several concubines in the palace today?"
Concubine Chen holds a high position, and this matter has caused quite a stir. If she still doesn't know about it, then she would have been sitting in this position in vain to assist in managing the six palaces.
Having said that, when Concubine Xue heard Shen Zhinian mention this matter in front of her, her expression was still a little unnatural. She looked away and said, "I just don't want them to mess up the harem."
She was not punishing them for the sake of Concubine Chen.
Shen Zhinian looked at Xue Fei's fair and cold face and said nothing.
This woman...is just as hypocritical as ever!
Even Concubine Sun covered her mouth with a handkerchief and laughed with her head down.
She finally understood why Concubine Chen liked to tease Concubine Xue so much, because Concubine Xue was really fun!
wrong!
She is the best ally of Concubine Chen, and she cannot let Concubine Xue steal the limelight.
Concubine Sun immediately touched her belly and said to Shen Zhinian, "Sister Concubine Chen, the baby in my belly just moved again. It's amazing!"
She wanted to use this opportunity to draw the attention of her sister, Concubine Chen.
As expected, Shen Zhinian did not continue to tease Concubine Xue, but looked at Concubine Sun: "Normal."
"When I was pregnant with Ah Xu for more than four months, I felt him moving in my belly."
"Your fetal movements should be very obvious now."
Lady Sun nodded her head like pounding garlic: "Hmm!"
"This child has been making trouble for me every day lately."
Next, the two exchanged experiences and interesting stories during pregnancy.
Concubine Xue sat quietly beside them, listening to the conversation between Concubine Sun and Shen Zhinian. Her usually cold eyes were also tinged with a bit of warmth.
Concubine Sun secretly glanced at Concubine Xue and suddenly felt a little guilty.
At this moment, she finally understood how those pregnant concubines in the past always used the excuse of the royal heir in their bellies to attract His Majesty's attention...
