Empress, she is rising step by step

Chapter 53 Miscarriage

Zhang Yuan responded repeatedly while wiping the sweat from his face while pinching his sleeves.

Hua Jingyun led Zhang Yuan to the Chunxi Palace in a hurry. The maids kept coming in and out, walking in a hurry, all carrying hot water and clean handkerchiefs.

Even though it was such a mess, there was no sound at all, only the rustling of the corners of clothes could be heard.

The screams of Lu Zheng kept ringing in the dormitory, which was different from her usual charming voice. At this time, it was like a beast wailing, piercing the clear sky.

"Yi Zhang, I leave it to you. This is the emperor's first child on the throne, and it must be safe."

Zhang Yuan knew that he had a heavy responsibility and did not dare to promise easily. He rolled up his sleeves and hurriedly washed his hands.

"Queen, don't worry, I will do my best." After saying that, he opened the curtain and entered the bedroom.

Hua Jingyun felt as if a stone weighing a thousand kilograms had been stuffed into her heart, weighing her down so much that she couldn't breathe. She held Qiu Ping's arm and slowly walked to the couch near the window and sat down.

"My dear, don't worry too much, maybe everything will be fine."

Hua Jingyun clasped his hands together and murmured "Amitabha" in a low voice, "I hope, I can only do my best and obey fate."

On the other side, Xu Tingyue and Yang Yunxi found an excuse and left.

The imperial doctor checked Zhu Ci's pulse and put it back in the medicine box. "Back to the emperor, Zhu Ci's body is filled with cold air, which causes a high fever that won't go away. Once you break out in a sweat, take a few medicines and you'll be fine. Don't be certain." Don’t catch a cold.”

"I understand." Shen Que held Zhu Ci's hand with one hand and waved to the imperial doctor.

Cui Lan led the imperial doctor out through the curtain, while Yan Qingshu sighed as she scratched the head of the bed.

"Sister Zhu is so pitiful. She kindly gave Concubine Shu something, but she was wronged by Concubine Shu. Now she is ill again. It's really heartbreaking to see her like this. Brother Emperor, I heard what you just said. I’m all sad, let alone wishing my sister good luck.”

She said with a stern face, "When Sister Zhu gets better, you have to apologize to her."

If another concubine had said this, Shen Que would definitely be angry, but Yan Qingshu was different. She grew up next to the Queen Mother, and she always pestered Shen Que and called her "Emperor Brother".

In his heart, she was like a family member. Anyone would harm him. But Yan Qingshu wouldn’t.

"I understand. Didn't I personally take care of your sister and wish her to atone for her sins? Don't keep moaning and groaning here. It makes me upset."

"Humph, brother Emperor is tired of Qing Shu. Qing Shu can just leave, so she won't be an eyesore here."

Yan Qingshu twisted around, took Cao Wenxi's hand and said, "Sister Cao, let's go see how Lu Yunv is doing. I'm afraid the Queen will be scared if she's alone there."

Cao Wenxi said nothing and allowed Yan Qingshu to pull him out.

When walking quickly to the door. She couldn't help but turn her head and glance at Shen Que, and her eyes instantly dimmed when she saw that he was pinching the corners of Zhu Ci's quilt thoughtfully.

She turned her head and bit her lip and left with Yan Qingshu.

Hongxiu fetched water and twisted the handkerchief to wipe it with Zhu Ci. Shen Que took it from her hand.

"Give it to me."

Shen Que took the handkerchief and gently wiped Zhu Ci's face.

Zhu Ci was drowsy and about to fall asleep, but was frightened by Shen Que's move and woke up instantly.

The emperor actually wiped her face himself? ! Why is it so unreal?

Although it is normal for a man to wipe the face of his sick woman, in this dynasty where naughty dogs are paramount, and the other party is the emperor, the meaning is different. He is indeed a seasoned love expert, and he really knows how to figure out a woman's thoughts. If this were to be the concubine's kind of love brain, she would probably be moved to the point where her nose would be flowing.

Zhu Ci snorted, her slender and thick eyelashes trembled, and then slowly opened her eyes.

Her eyes were confused for a moment, and she searched for a while before landing on Shen Que.

"Your Majesty?" Her tone was very doubtful.

"Is it you, Your Majesty?"

"It's me." Shen Que handed the handkerchief to Hongxiu and held Zhu Ci's hand firmly.

"You're awake. Are you feeling better? The imperial doctor said that you fell ill because of the cold air entering your body. I think you caught a cold from writing scriptures all night last night."

Of course Zhu Ci knew that she had to pay because she caught a cold. She deliberately left the window open all night when she was copying scriptures yesterday just to make herself sick.

This way her sudden fainting would not arouse suspicion.

"Concubine, she's feeling much better, but she feels a lot of pain all over her body, as if she's been run over by a carriage."

Zhu Ci coughed violently, tears falling from the corners of her eyes. She thought of something and quickly covered her mouth with her hands and turned away.

"Your Majesty, it is better to stay away from my concubine. If my concubine is infected with the cold, if it is transmitted to the emperor, then she will become a sinner through the ages."

"I am the emperor, and I will be protected by the real dragon. Everything will be fine." Shen Que put his hand on Zhu Ci's shoulder and pulled her body over.

Zhu Ci's lips were bloodless and slightly white, "How can you let the emperor take care of the concubine himself? How can a concubine be so virtuous? Can't the emperor be angry with the concubine? She sniffed and couldn't help but blush. Eye sockets.

"I already know it. I misunderstood you." Shen Que helped Zhu Ci up and ordered Hongxiu to get a soft pillow for her to put on her back to make it more comfortable.

"Why didn't you tell me the truth just now? I caused you to be wronged."

Zhu Ci held Shen Que's hand. His palm was warm, covered with a thin layer of calluses, and felt a little rough.

"Lu Cai Ren, after all, is pregnant with a dragon heir. It doesn't matter if the concubine is wronged, but if something happens to Lu Cai Ren and the child in her belly, the emperor will definitely be sad. The emperor will be sad, and the concubine will not be happy either."

She lowered her eyes, her eyelashes casting a shadow on her fair skin.

"Besides, I have been living with Lu Cairen for so many days. Although Lu Cairen sometimes speaks too frankly, I believe that she does not have any bad intentions. Concubine does not dare to talk nonsense about things that she is not sure about. The Emperor is upset."

Hearing what Zhu Ci said, Shen Que was slightly startled. She actually thought so because she was worried about the child in Lu Yunv's belly and was afraid that she would be sad. She would rather be wronged than tell the truth.

He actually doubted her for a moment just now.

Shen Que couldn't help but feel a little guilty, "She has already admitted to me personally that she poisoned the Peach Blossom Jade Face Powder because she was jealous of you. Who knew you were useless yourself, but instead gave it to Concubine Shu, who suffered from it?" It is an unreasonable disaster. I have demoted her status. You have been wronged."

"As long as the emperor believes in me, I will not be wronged." Zhu Ci shook his head, crying and laughing at the same time.

"Empress Shufei is really innocent. I'm afraid that Concubine Shu's face is... I really feel guilty. I hope Empress Shufei will be okay, otherwise my conscience will never be at peace in my life."
