After transforming into An Lingrong, he became the King of Juan and was crowned the Sixth Palace.

The first person to check the pulse was still Dr. Liu Fan.

The emperor was vomited all over by Xingui Ren, so he went to the cubicle to change clothes first, which meant that there was no one else around Xin Gui Ren.

An Lingrong took this opportunity to say that Xingui's face was not very good and it was not suitable for the imperial doctors to see him, so she specially drew the curtain.

Therefore, Liu Fan checked Xingui's pulse through the tent.

Xin Guiren, who was hiding inside, used his other hand to press the acupuncture point where the pulse was diagnosed, making his pulse no longer so accurate.

As a result, Dr. Liu's first words made the concubines feel a little calmer.

"The Xingui man's fetal image is a little unstable because he took too many things that stimulate the spleen and stomach, which irritated the intestines and stomach and compressed the fetus."

After Liu Fan finished speaking, he glanced at Concubine Hua who was sitting there, asking Songzhi to put ice cubes on her forehead.

This glance was noticed by the queen.

The queen, who felt that there was something wrong with Concubine Hua and Concubine Xiang, said, "Mr. Jiang, please take a pulse to make sure that Xin Gui's pulse is as Dr. Liu Fan said."

Doctor Jiang took the order and went to the tent to check Ren Xingui's pulse again, frowning and thinking.

Not long after, he looked horrified, knelt on the ground, and said: "Go back to the Queen, please marry her, she is not pregnant!"

Everyone was shocked. Why did Xingui's pulse, which was relatively stable, disappear in the hands of Imperial Physician Jiang?
It happened that the emperor had changed into clean clothes, and at first he heard from Doctor Jiang that Xingui's fetus was dead.

Rushing forward and kicking Imperial Physician Jiang and Imperial Physician Liu each, Long Yan said angrily: "Quick doctors, don't talk nonsense."

When the queen heard that it was clear that Concubine Xiang and Concubine Hua wanted to frame Xin Guiren for a false pregnancy, she pointed at Liu Fan who was sweating profusely and said, "Liu Fan, you still don't plead guilty?"

Liu Wei held on and said, "Empress Mingjian! Xingui Ren's fetal pulse is not very stable, but Wei Chen did feel the pulse just now!"

An Lingrong chuckled and said, "Chief Doctor Jiang's brother is a national expert in gynecology. How can we allow someone like you, who has just entered the hospital, to be so presumptuous? Is it possible that you want to frame Doctor Jiang?"

"Your Majesty, please forgive me. The Queen will atone for my sins. I really don't know!"

Seeing the chaos here, Xin Guiren on the bed pinched her waist, her eyes were red with pain, and she cried and yelled about how her child was gone fine, and who was lying to her.

Everyone held their own opinions, and the emperor roared loudly before he became quiet.

The suspicious emperor first invited other imperial doctors from the Imperial Hospital to check Xingui's pulse, and sat by Xingui's bed to comfort him. He also sent people to search the residences of Liu Wei and Imperial Doctor Jiang.

He wanted to see if today's incident was caused by human nature or a misdiagnosis!
Upon hearing that the emperor had sent people to search the residence, Imperial Physician Jiang glanced at An Lingrong and said nothing, as if he was not afraid of searches or investigations.

As for Imperial Physician Liu Gan, he was already trembling with fear and would glance at Concubine Hua from time to time.

Cao Qinmo, who thought about the whole situation clearly, knew that someone was deliberately framing him for Wen Yi's birthday.

But when she saw Liu Fan looking at Concubine Hua from time to time, she suddenly fell silent.

She knelt down on the ground because of her beloved daughter, and took the initiative to express her sincerity to the emperor. This matter really had nothing to do with her.

The emperor, who was coaxing Mr. Xingui, looked at the concubine who was kneeling on the ground, and after signaling the palace attendants to pull her up, he said, "Whether it has anything to do with you, people will find out later, and the truth will naturally come to light!"

The emperor, who had just been deceived by Zhen Huan's favor, was very disgusted by people making fun of his children.

Therefore, he wanted to investigate this matter and get to the bottom of it!
The doctors from the Imperial Hospital arrived here quickly after receiving the emperor's order.

One by one, they checked her pulse and answered in unison that Ms. Xingui had no signs of pregnancy. She just ate too much and felt nauseated.

Hearing this, everyone's eyes were focused on Liu Fan, who was kneeling on the ground and shivering.

Immediately afterwards, Su Peisheng came all the way over again, bringing with him the 100 taels of silver notes in Liu Gan's room.

Seeing that the banknotes were found, Concubine Hua was already restless.

She didn't expect that Liu Wei was so stupid that he would make a fuss about Xinguiren's pregnancy and do it so stupidly.

So, she took the lead in questioning Liu Fan while he didn't react.

During the interrogation process, family members were even threatened.

So much so that when he was just about to say that Concubine Hua gave him the Liu Bian, he didn't dare to speak anymore and just knelt on the ground and kept begging for mercy, which made the emperor furious.

Everyone who was led astray by An Lingrong thought that Concubine Hua and Concubine Xiang's intention was that Xingui was pregnant today.

The emperor thought so too. He ordered Liu Fan to be killed immediately and sat there silently.

An Lingrong could tell from the rise and fall of the emperor's chest that the emperor was very angry, but it was not easy to directly operate on Concubine Hua and Concubine Xiang.

After all, it will be Princess Wen Yi's birthday soon. If Cao Qinmo is punished today, it will be embarrassing to hold celebrations in the future.

The same goes for Concubine Hua. Her brother was appreciated by the emperor in the previous dynasty, so it was not easy to alert others.

But as luck would have it, the ignorant imperial doctor asked Ms. Xingui what she had taken for dinner, gathered together to discuss it for a while, and gave the concubines a shocking answer.

It was the conflict between the diet and pharmacology here in Xiangbi, which ruined Xingui's body, and the scent of pollen, which gave the imperial doctor the pulse of pregnancy.

As for the result of Doctor Jiang's diagnosis of no pulse, it was simply that Xingui vomited everything out, which made him feel better, so naturally there would be no mistakes.

When the queen heard this, she covered her mouth, barely concealing her smile, and began to put pressure on Concubine Xiang.

Cao Qinmo knew that he could not avoid this trick, so he knelt on the ground and said that he did not understand pharmacology or the interests of food, and asked the emperor to forgive him.

Of course, the emperor did not forgive Cao Qinmo and directly stripped her of her title of Xiang, which meant that Cao Qinmo was not allowed to leave the palace again without his permission and could only take care of Wen Yi until her birthday.

As for Concubine Hua, although she didn't make a big mistake, she couldn't escape it.

The emperor randomly found Cao Qinmo, who was from her palace, as an excuse for the head of the palace to be lax in his supervision, and punished and rewarded him equally.

Concubine Hua naturally refused, but how could the empress and Concubine Qi let go of such an opportunity? After some clever words, the two "master and servant" were defeated in the end.

An Lingrong was very satisfied with the result, and then she whispered to remind the emperor about Xin Guiren...

The emperor thought for a moment and promoted Xingui to the rank of concubine Xin.

The farce ended here.

Walking on the path, Meizhuang sighed and said: "Lingrong, it's a good thing that you and I are sisters. Otherwise, if it were me, I wouldn't know how to solve the problem."

An Lingrong smiled and replied: "In this situation, it depends on the time and place. I can only blame Cao Qinmo and Concubine Hua for having too many calculations. I didn't expect that retribution would fall on me."

"If Concubine Hua hadn't roped in Imperial Physician Liu and stuffed banknotes into the residence of a new Imperial Physician in the Imperial Hospital, the Emperor would have had no reason to punish her."

Mei Zhuang thought about it, nodded, sighed, and went back to rest together.Not long after, it was June [-]th, which was Wen Yi's birthday. The weather was a bit hot, so the banquet was held in Fuli Hall.

Fuli Hall was built very early. It was originally a small garden where the Empress Dowager Zhaokang of the previous dynasty stayed in the Taiping Palace in her later years. The halls are all made of white snail stone, with carved sills on all sides, which are exquisite and clear.

Because it is not far from the lake, you can still clearly hear the sound of silk and bamboo orchestral music coming from the water pavilion of Fanyue Lake. The sound is clear and far away without any noise.

A golden dragon banquet table was placed in the middle, facing north and south, with the emperor and empress sitting side by side.

The queen was wearing a cyan blouse and a small ribbon on both sides. She sat next to the emperor with a serious look on her face, maintaining the right smile as always.

Although the emperor was polite and respectful to the empress, he did not have the same affection for Empress Chunyuan.

From north to south on the ground, banquet tables for relatives, wives and concubines were placed facing each other from east to west.

The palace rules are strict, and noble men are not allowed to meet with concubines except for important festivals and banquets.

Today was a family banquet for Wen Yi's birthday, so it was naturally informal.

Under the left hand of the emperor and empress are the seats for the nobles and their wives.

Sitting on the first seat on the right were Cao Qinmo, who was holding on with a bad look on his face, and Xin Bin, who had just been canonized as a concubine.

Today's banquet is not only to celebrate Wen Yi's birthday, but also to congratulate someone on his promotion.

Wen Yi is young, so the two of them are the real protagonists today. Even Concubine Duan, Concubine Jing and Concubine Qi, who are far above them, can only take second place.

Concubine Hua, who had fallen out of favor, sat at the third seat with An Lingrong, and the fourth seat was occupied by the nobleman Fu Cha and Yin Chang.

An Lingrong looked at Meizhuang, who was wearing a crimson embroidered "Spring Swallow in the Apricot Grove" brocade dress, an apricot-yellow gold thread gauze skirt, and gold ornaments inlaid with precious stones.

Pearls, emeralds, red gold are brilliant, and they are even more noble.

Meizhuang looks radiant and full of energy.

As for Cao Qinmo, she is wearing a lotus purple top, a skirt of emerald blue, gold branches, green leaves and flowers trailing the floor, and her head is full of pearls, which are also gorgeous and dazzling.

Behind everyone was a large group of palace maids, who kept filling up the wine barons with fine wine, which was the most flattering thing.

Concubine Hua had never seen the emperor since that night when she went to greet him. Today, she just put on a light makeup and sat silently.

When the banquet was about to begin, Concubine Duan came in, supported by two or three palace maids on the left and right, before she bowed tremblingly.

The emperor hurriedly left his seat and gave her a hand, saying: "The sun is so bright outside and you still rush here. It's not an urgent matter."

A smile appeared on Concubine Duan's pale face: "Wen Yi's first birthday is a big event. I will definitely come to congratulate you. I haven't seen Wen Yi for a long time."

Cao Qinmo hurriedly asked the wet nurse to carry Wen Yi to Concubine Duan.

The weather was hot, and Wen Yi only wore a colorful silk bellyband embroidered with red phoenix and sunrise pattern, which made her look even more like a pink ball.

Concubine Duan looked at Wen Yi's extremely gentle and kind expression, and stretched out her hand to hug him, but for some reason she stopped her hand.

She stared at Wen Yi for a long time, then smiled slightly and said: "I really want to hug Wen Yi, but I am afraid that I will throw her down instead, and my intention is weak."

Concubine Duan said to the palace maid supporting her: "Good luck."

The little palace maid named Ji Xiang hurriedly presented a gold lock and a gold eight-treasure necklace to Cao Qinmo.

It’s just a gold lock, but there is a thumb-sized emerald in the middle of the collar. It is watery and emerald green. Anyone with a discerning eye can tell at a glance that it is the fine, waxy and emerald jadeite produced in the Wonan Kingdom. It must be the product of Concubine Duan’s years. beloved thing.

Sure enough, the emperor said: "This collar looks very familiar, like the dowry you received when you entered the palace."

He added: "You are still a child, how can you give her such a precious thing."

Concubine Duan tilted her head to the side and coughed a few times, causing a strange flush on her face. Fang smiled and said: "Your Majesty has a good memory. It's just that I have been sick for many years, so it would be a pity to leave her alone. Wen Yi is so cute, so it is just right for her." .”

Cao Qinmo obviously didn't expect such a generous gift from Concubine Duan. He was surprised and happy, and quickly thanked Wen Yi: "More concubine Duan."

Concubine Duan gently stroked Wen Yi's cheek and sighed: "The last time I saw her, she was already so big when she was a full moon. With her delicate features, she must be a beauty when she grows up."

Cao Qinmo smiled and gave in: "Your Majesty, you are so complimentary. Please come and take a seat."

Concubine Duan stood talking for a while and was already out of breath and dripping with sweat.

The maids hurriedly helped her sit down.

This was the first time that An Lingrong had met Concubine Duan face to face since she had been in the palace for a long time. This was the woman who had served the emperor in the palace for the longest time.

Her appearance was not inferior to that of Concubine Hua, but her complexion was as pale as paper, and she was thin and cold. Within half an hour of sitting down, her body was limply leaning against the maid's body. Even the thin silk clothes on her body seemed unbearable. load.

Not to mention the red gold Jingfu long phoenix hairpin on her bun, which was so heavy that she couldn't even lift her head. She didn't look like the daughter of General Huben, who had been a descendant of generations of generals.

Looking at Concubine Hua next to her, she looked completely different.

Concubine Duan and Concubine Hua were both queens of the generals. In comparison, Concubine Hua had the demeanor of a tiger girl in generals. She acted decisively and fiercely, intimidating the harem, and she did not lose her charm even if she lost power.

At first glance, Concubine Duan looked like a very weak person. She was just frail and slender. Her body was so weak that she needed someone to help her move. She couldn't even speak a few words without being out of breath.

Concubine Duan nodded with everyone, looked at Meizhuang for a few times, and was slightly startled when she saw An Lingrong. Then she smiled meaningfully at An Lingrong, turned her head and said to the emperor with a smile as if nothing had happened: "The emperor has to do it again." What a few beauties.”

The emperor didn't say anything and just ignored it.

The queen said with a smile: "My sister has not seen anyone for many years, so she still has the same eyesight as before. It's just that she hasn't seen Wan Changzai, otherwise she would have stood up in surprise."

This was said carelessly, and everyone was just joking and not paying attention to it. Only Meizhuang took it to heart and planned to ask An Lingrong later what the queen meant by this.

On the table, there are famous wines and delicacies, fresh vegetables and game, the breeze blows the curtains, the melodious music of the konghou, and the sound of music, which makes people feel relaxed and happy.

Lihua Baijiu tastes mellow and sweet, but has great staying power.

After three rounds of drinking, An Lingrong's face became hot and her head felt dizzy. Seeing that everyone was having fun talking about the wine, she gave Jinxi a few words and quietly took Jinxi out to change clothes to sober up.

There is everything in the small pavilion, which is specially used for the concubines and their family members to change clothes and sober up.

When Baojuan saw An Lingrong coming in, she hurriedly came forward to greet her and was so busy that she fanned and handed over water.

An Lingrong took the wet handkerchief and covered her face and said, "The weather is strange. It's so hot in June."

Jin Xi smiled and said, "It is unavoidable that your Majesty is afraid of the heat. People in the previous dynasty valued your Majesty's wind-driven waterwheel, so they naturally wanted to entertain the ladies."

An Lingrong whispered: "Where do you want me to go socialize? Today is a good day for Xin Bin and Cao Qinmo. We just need to sit and drink and listen to the music."
