The favored imperial concubine

Chapter 149

If it was said that the wounds on the back of Nian Xilan's head and wrists were nothing more than a trick used by Nian Xilan to get rid of the crime, Kangxi would never believe it.Kangxi clearly remembered that according to Liu Shengfang's diagnosis, the wound on the back of Nian Xilan's head must have been caused by someone hitting hard from behind. Wound.What's more, the wound on Nian Xilan's wrist was even more dangerous. If he came half a quarter of an hour later, even if Hua Tuo was alive again, he would not be able to save his Lan'er.May I ask how can someone in the world be so stupid to win sympathy with such a bitter trick that is tantamount to suicide?
Therefore, Kangxi cautiously avoided topics related to this matter, showed [-]% patience, and accompanied Nian Xilan tenderly and considerately, hoping to help her through this dark time as soon as possible, so that she would gradually forget about it. Misfortunes and injuries that occurred in the side hall of Xianfu Palace.

However, what Kangxi was most worried about happened.Although the wounds on Nian Xilan's head and wrists have gradually healed, the Xianfu Palace incident has caused irreparable damage to Nian Xilan's delicate and sensitive heart.His beloved Lan'er was actually afraid of his touch and courtship.

Whenever Kangxi thought of this, he felt very depressed.It's not that Kangxi has thought of using some tough methods to make Nian Xilan accept and get used to his touch again, but every time he sees Nian Xilan, his face turns pale with fright, and fear gradually appears in his empty eyes , Kangxi softened his heart, and hurriedly hugged the trembling Nian Xilan into his arms to comfort her, how could he be willing to let her suffer any more grievances?

Therefore, Kangxi, who was reluctant to let Nian Xilan be wronged, had no choice but to wrong himself.However, Kang Xigui was the emperor of the Qing Dynasty. Except when he was young and had not yet been in power, he was wronged by the powerful minister Obai, how often did he endure other people's grievances?Kangxi's mood was not going well, and the ministers in the court and the surrounding palace people were often reprimanded by Kangxi, and the ninth elder brother Yinzhen and the tenth elder brother Yin'e were also taught a lesson by Kangxi.

Kangxi originally wanted to slow down the matter a little bit, but he didn't expect an unexpected major event to happen.

On this day, when Liu Shengfang was taking Nian Xilan's pulse, he suddenly showed a look of panic. He couldn't believe it and changed hands twice to check Nian Xilan's pulse. trembling.

Kangxi's heart trembled, but he didn't want to make Nian Xilan worry any more, so he quickly gave Liu Shengfang a warning look, and pretended to be relaxed and said with a smile: "I just promised you, after you heal Concubine Xi's eyes , I will reward you with the only copy of the ancient prescriptions in the medical book stored in the imperial hospital. Is it possible that Concubine Xi's eyes have finally improved, so you, a slave who is obsessed with medicine and obsessed with medicine, are overjoyed with joy, and you actually gave it back to me? I'm trembling out of nowhere!"

Liu Shengfang came back to her senses, and quickly echoed: "What the emperor said is very true! The eyes of the concubine Xi have indeed improved. As long as you persist in using the medicine, you will be cured in a short time. The servant was really overjoyed just now, and he was so happy that he lost his mind , let the Emperor and Concubine Xi laugh!"

Although Nian Xilan couldn't see the expression on Liu Shengfang's face at this time, she keenly heard that Liu Shengfang's tone of voice was a bit strange.Although Liu Shengfang tried his best to cover it up, Nian Xilan still noticed that Liu Shengfang seemed a little shocked and frightened.

Nian Xilan wondered why Liu Shengfang was so afraid, but she didn't show it at all on her face, she covered her mouth with a brocade handkerchief and said with a smile: "Master Liu is very skilled in medicine, and he has a good hand in treating stubborn diseases, so my eyes have improved so quickly. I was also filled with joy after listening to Mr. Liu's diagnosis. It is reasonable for Mr. Liu to be happy about this."

Kangxi followed Nian Xilan's words and chatted and laughed casually, then sent Liu Shengfang out.After that, Kangxi managed to suppress the anxiety and uneasiness in his heart, and accompanied Nian Xilan for meals and naps according to his usual habits.It wasn't until after Nian Xilan took a long breath and fell asleep that Kangxi ordered Li Dequan to take Liu Shengfang to the Qianqing Palace for interrogation.

As soon as Liu Shengfang entered the Qianqing Palace, he fell to his knees in front of Kangxi with a plop, pleading guilty with a sad face: "The slave deserves death, please forgive me!"

The uneasiness in Kangxi's heart became more and more intense. He frowned, took a deep breath, and asked in a deep voice: "How is Concubine Xi's pulse condition? You just say so. Could it be that the injury on Concubine Xi's head has changed, and her eyes... Can't you see it anymore?"

Liu Shengfang replied in a trembling voice: "My Majesty, just now the servant did not say anything false in front of Concubine Xi. The injury on Concubine Xi's head has indeed recovered very well. As long as you continue to take medicine to treat it, at most one month later , Empress Xi’s eyes will be healed.”

Kangxi frowned even more, and asked anxiously: "If that's the case, why are you so afraid? Could it be that something happened to Concubine Xi's body, and she got some serious illness that cannot be cured?"

Liu Shengfang gritted her teeth, kowtowed her head three times before replying in a trembling voice, "I report to the Emperor, Empress Xi's veins are fluent, like rolling beads, which should be smooth... It is undoubtedly the Xi pulse..."

When Kangxi heard this, he was overjoyed at first, but then he thought of all the things that happened recently and Liu Shengfang's reaction just now, and his heart gradually became cold again.

"How long has it been since Concubine Xi's pregnancy? Why was it diagnosed just today?" Kangxi's sharp eyes glanced coldly at Liu Shengfang, and there was a sense of blame in his gloomy voice.

Cold sweat kept dripping from Liu Shengfang's forehead, but he didn't dare to reach out to wipe it off. He thought about his words in his heart, and explained carefully: "The emperor said, the concubine Xi's pregnancy is still short, and she was seriously injured not long ago. Weak and weak, so the happy pulse is not obvious, so it is difficult to diagnose. Now the wound on the empress has gradually recovered, and she has been pregnant for one month, so the slippery pulse is gradually showing."

Kangxi's heart moved, he stared at Liu Shengfang with burning eyes, and suddenly asked: "Can you diagnose the exact date of Concubine Xi's pregnancy?"
