Chapter 56 Needing Heart Medicine and Doctors

Emperor Qingling stood up and looked at the Queen Mother coldly: "Empress Dowager, let's go, come with me to see the Fourteenth."

The sight of him made even the Queen Mother feel frightened.

The Queen Mother wanted to refuse, but she couldn't.

She had no choice but to frown under the pressure and walk away. In the palace, Emperor Qingling looked at Concubine Shu, who was pale on the bed, and said in a deep voice: "Mr. Zhao, I will give you one last chance to cure Concubine Shu. If she has Leave a scar and I will kill you!"

Doctor Zhao quickly said: "I obey the order."

After Emperor Qing Ling left, Imperial Physician Zhao stood up carefully and wiped the sweat from his forehead.

Then he walked towards the bed and was almost scared to death.

Concubine Shu on the bed was clearly awake, her eyes were vacant and lifeless, looking at the top of her head, silent.

Dr. Zhao was surprised: "Mother, you're awake!"

After the words fell, Concubine Shu's eyes flashed with tears.

Her voice was as ethereal as dust and could not be caught: "How is the child in my womb?"

Doctor Zhao was frightened, and quickly knelt down and said: "Mother, don't worry, the emperor's heir in your belly is fine, everything is fine. Please relax, don't worry about me. Weichen will prescribe two pairs of anti-fetal medicines for you. Just eat it and you’ll be fine.”

Concubine Shu looked at him sideways and said calmly, "Get up."

Doctor Zhao nodded: "Yes."

He stood up under the indifferent gaze of Concubine Shu, sweating profusely.

Concubine Shu's voice sounded again: "I want you to prepare a pair of abortion pills."

Doctor Zhao suddenly raised his head, shocked.

He knelt down with a plop: "Your Majesty, think again! The Emperor already knows that you are pregnant with the Emperor's heir, and there is a broad road ahead of him, so why do you want to take it upon yourself..."

He didn't dare to say the next words.

The outside world thought that Concubine Shu was gentle and gentle, but from what he saw and heard in the palace during this period, he really couldn't tell how docile Concubine Shu was.

She knew what she wanted best, and then planned step by step. Although there were twists and turns, she achieved her goal.

She doesn't care about the process, she wants the results.

In his opinion, Concubine Shu was very wise.

Why are you so confused now?

Concubine Shu frowned: "Is the queen happy?"

She has not forgotten that she asked Imperial Doctor Zhao to pay attention to whether the queen was pregnant that day, but she has not had a chance to ask about it in the past few days.

Imperial Physician Zhao trembled, and lowered his voice: "Concubine Shu, the Queen is indeed pregnant. However, the fetus is unstable and has not been reported to the outside world. In addition, the Queen is in confinement again, so she happens to be pregnant. In Jingren Palace, the same tonics and donkey-hide gelatin cakes are provided every day, and Dr. Lin also prescribed a lot of pregnancy-preserving medicines for the empress. The minister guessed that the empress would not be able to give birth to this fetus."

As soon as these words came out, Concubine Shu's eyes widened.

She frowned: "Do you know what the crime is when you curse the fetus in the Queen's belly like this?"

Imperial Doctor Zhao immediately knelt down and kowtowed: "Everything Wei Chen said is true. If Concubine Shu does not believe it, you can go and verify it yourself. But, Concubine Shu, everyone in the palace now knows that Wei Chen is from Concubine Shu's side. If so, If you ask other people, I'm afraid it will cause unnecessary speculation, and it may even bring trouble to the Queen."

Every word he said seemed to be thinking about Concubine Shu.

But Concubine Shu knew full well that he was surrendering to her in disguise, telling her that he was the only one worthy of trust in this palace.

Concubine Shu said calmly: "I know, please go and prepare abortion pills for me."

Imperial Physician Zhao knelt down and did not dare to get up: "I don't dare."

He thought that Concubine Shu had given up on this idea, but he didn't expect that after going round and round, she actually brought up the matter again.

Concubine Shu looked at him displeased: "How dare you not listen to what I say?" This was the first time that she used her status as a concubine to pressure someone, and her voice was inevitably a little soft.

Unlike the previous threatening way of Concubine Chun, Concubine Shu's voice was too soft.

But there is a gentle knife hidden inside.

It seemed that if he really admitted that he didn't listen to her, she would order his head on the spot.

But even so, Imperial Doctor Zhao still did not dare to let go, and only said: "Shu Guifei, you know better than Wei Chen how much the Emperor cares about you. If he knows that Wei Chen prescribed abortion pills to you, the Emperor will definitely ask for Wei Chen." I hope that Concubine Shu will let me go, as well as the imperial heir in your belly."

He knew better than anyone else that the fetus in Concubine Shu's belly was in good health. If the fetus was taken care of well, the fetus would land safely at full term.

Relying on the status of Concubine Shu and Princess Zhixin in the heart of the emperor, the prime minister's family was able to gain a firm foothold in the previous dynasty.

From now on, let alone Prince Heng, even the emperor will be polite to the prime minister.

But if the baby was stillborn, the emperor would definitely investigate carefully. If it was found on him, let alone staying in the Imperial Hospital, even this life would be just a luxury.

Concubine Shu was lying on the collapse, her heart was filled with despair, and she said solemnly: "I also want to let him go, but who will let my Ying'an go?"

She was reluctant to open her eyes just now, so it wasn't because she was really unconscious.

But she didn't know how to face the emperor.

He was determined to keep Ying'an in the cold palace, and even the Queen Mother's intervention was of no avail.

That was the only flesh and blood between her and him, how could he be so cruel!
  If he knew that she had to give up her unborn child for Ying'an, would he let Ying'an go for her?

Even if she loses her favor, releasing Ying'an from the cold palace and letting her be raised by her side will be more satisfying than leaving a two-month-old baby to live in the cold palace.

Whenever she thinks of Ying'an crying in the cold palace, her heart will twist like a knife. Doesn't the emperor's heart hurt?
  Only then did Dr. Zhao understand why Concubine Shu pretended to be asleep and refused to wake up, and why she asked him for abortion pills. She was gambling, hoping to use the fetus in her belly to secure a future for Princess Zhixin.

Although he did not accompany him, he heard about most of what happened outside the palace.

If even Concubine Shu, a mother-in-law, gave up on Princess Zhixin, then Princess Zhixin's life would probably be over.

He knelt down, kowtowed and said, "Your Majesty, Wei Chen has a plan. Please listen to Wei Chen's words."

Concubine Shu looked at Imperial Physician Zhao with scrutiny in her eyes.

"You say it."

If what he said was not good, or if he didn't say it to her heart, she would just ignore it.

Dr. Zhao said: "Heart disease requires heart medicine. Why did the emperor keep Princess Zhixin in the cold palace? The empress must understand that it is the truth to prescribe the right medicine."

Concubine Shu gave Imperial Doctor Zhao a meaningful look.

There was silence in the hall.

After a long time, she said: "I know, please go and prepare anti-fetal medicine for me."

Doctor Zhao breathed a sigh of relief and quickly stepped back: "Then I'm going to prepare some medicine for you. Your Majesty, please take some rest."

With these words, he withdrew.

Concubine Shu said: "Help me call Nanny Chen in."

Imperial Physician Zhao nodded: "Yes, Madam."

"Mother, are you calling me?" Nanny Chen's eyes were red, as if she had just cried.

She walked in from outside the hall wiping tears. The air pressure around her body was also very low, and she was in a bad mood.

Concubine Shu frowned: "What do you look like crying in the Yangxin Palace? Let me hold it back!"
