Concubine Sheng Chong

Chapter 226 The crime of murdering the emperor's heir

He Lan's expression froze, as if he was in great pain...

Wen Po was sweating all over her head, and said anxiously, "Your Majesty! Use your strength!"

Jiang Jinyan was relieved to see that she had regained some energy.

On the side, a palace maid in green came forward to change the handkerchief for He Lan, crying, "Your Majesty, you will be fine, don't worry! The nobleman will also find out the real culprit for you!"

Jiang Jinyan already knew that Yuwen had committed a crime and was replaced, but seeing this green-clothed court lady now, she felt a little uneasy.

He Lan opened his eyes, "Let the Holy Father find out! I can't let my child suffer for no reason..."

As she said that, she shouted again, and the steady lady shouted in surprise: "Three fingers have been opened!"

Jiang Jinyan looked at the maid in green with displeasure, "When are you still talking about this?! Hurry up and back down!"

Xiang Ming didn't expect that her provocation would not work against Jiang Jinyan, so she was shocked and had to retreat resentfully.

He Lan wanted to speak again, Jiang Jinyan said anxiously: "Your Majesty, stop talking, you'll be fine, wait until the child is born to talk about everything, don't waste your energy..."

But He Lan shook his head and insisted: "Jin Yan, you know that I am already confused, and because of His Majesty's favor, I am even more confused... But I also know that Ye Gui is the one that His Majesty really loves. If this matter is related to her, I don't know..."

Before she could finish speaking, she yelled again.

Jiang Jinyan supported her shoulders and comforted her in a low voice, "Your Majesty, stop thinking about it and you'll be fine."

He Lan's face became paler and paler, and the moon white pajamas on her body seemed to be soaked through, "Jin Yan..."

Jiang Jinyan hurriedly wiped the sweat from her forehead, "I'm here."

At this time, Emperor Yongning in the flower hall outside looked at Xiang Ming kneeling in front of him with an extremely cold expression, and asked in a deep voice: "Is this dessert sent by Wangyue Zhai?"

Xiangming's whole body was trembling, and she quickly raised her eyes to look at Wengui who was still choking.

Wen Chunxiao's eyes were red and swollen behind the kerchief that covered his face, but they carried warnings and threats!
"Yes, the servant will get it in person."

Wen Chunxiao started to cry again, "My lord! You have to decide for Sister Lan! If something happens to her...I can't live anymore! It's all me...why do you want to eat Wangyuezhai's Ruyi Cake?! "

Her crying made Emperor Yongning's heart tighten, "Tell the imperial physician, test for poison."

At Wangyue Zhai at this time, Ye Luo was standing under the corridor in thin pajamas, staring at the direction of Ningde Hall.

Mingzhu stepped forward and handed over a small moon-white embroidered cloak, "My lord, His Majesty has sent a message to tell you not to go, there will be wind blowing."

Ye Luo let Mingzhu put on a cloak for herself, but her pretty face was full of uneasiness at the moment.

"How could it be such a coincidence? How could it be?" She hurriedly turned around and asked again: "Has the nanny who went to inquire about the news come back?"

Mingzhu shook her head, "It must be that Lan Zhaoyi's place is not going very well, it has been more than two hours."

Just as he was talking, a woman stumbled in and rushed in, "It's not good! My lord!"

Mingzhu glared at her, "What are you doing in such a panic?!"

Ye Luo asked anxiously, "What happened to Ningde Hall?"

The nun breathed a sigh of relief, and quickly said: "Miss Zhaoyi is having a difficult labor! Even Miss Jiang was summoned into the palace by the Holy Majesty. When the old slave went, I happened to hear the Holy Majesty asking about Ruyi Cake, and the gentleman insisted on it." There is something wrong with the wishful cake sent by the little master!"

Ye Luo swayed.

Mingzhu quickly supported her, but her heart was completely confused!

This... If this is slandered by others, it is the crime of murdering the emperor's heir!
"What did His Majesty say?" Ye Luo almost shouted these words in a low voice.

The nanny shook her head, "The old slave didn't dare to stay longer, so he ran back to inform the young master! The young master... what should I do now?! Mrs. Wen Gui insisted that it was you, if the wishful cake was tampered with ……Would not it be……"

Isn't it over? !

Mingzhu glared at him fiercely, "Our young master is innocent! Your Majesty will not let the young master be wronged! Hurry up and back down!"

But Ye Luo's heart was getting colder and colder under the evening wind at night.

If he was found out to have poisoned Lan Zhaoyi and the eldest son of the emperor...then he would definitely die!He is really very good to himself, but will he believe in himself?

He is just an ordinary woman in his huge harem, why should he believe in himself?

What should I do?
The revenge of the Ye family has not yet been avenged... If I die like this, I am afraid that the Ye family will never be able to stand up again!
But what hurts me more is that the man will abandon me like a shoe...

Her body softened and she fell down.

"My lord! You will be fine! Your Majesty treats you so well... Your Majesty knows you, and you are so kind-hearted, how could you harm others?!"

Ye Luo was helped into the inner room as if she had lost her soul.

The pain in her heart prevented her from thinking about anything else, she sat up all of a sudden, and walked towards the dressing table with bare feet.

"My lord! What are you looking for? This servant will find it for you..."

Ye Luo didn't allow her to intervene, so she just searched for it by herself, and finally found a simple rosewood hairpin in the bottom drawer.

As long as you look closely, you can see the dragon pattern on it...

Just because he took a few more glances, Emperor Yongning gave him this hairpin that he often used.

She held the hairpin tightly, and she felt more at ease in her heart.

Soon, Wangyuezhai was surrounded by people, and even the eunuchs and maids were not allowed to come in and out!
When this news reached Ye Luo's ears, she was still sitting motionless in front of the dressing table, tightly holding the rosewood hairpin in her hand.

"My lord..." Mingzhu began to sob softly, "Will His Majesty...will..."

She didn't dare to continue speaking.

Ye Luo closed her eyes, "Go out."

Mingzhu hurriedly persuaded: "Little master! The Holy Majesty has not sent a decree yet, you...you don't..."

"Go out, let me be quiet for a while." Ye Luo's voice was very low, but there was no emotion at all.

Mingzhu had no choice but to back down.

When there were no other people in the house, Ye Luo got up and stood by the window, still holding the hairpin tightly in her hand.

I don't know when, I actually lost my heart and fell in love with this person I shouldn't fall in love with...

Will he trust himself?Will he still love himself?
In the Ningde Palace, Wen Chunxiao's cries matched He Lan's occasional shouts, and the palace fell into mourning.

However, Emperor Yongning only issued a decree to surround Wangyue Zhai, and did not send Ye Luo down.

Wen Chunxiao was very resentful in his heart, this Ye Luo is really a coquettish girl!To be able to fascinate the Holy One in this way!

Thinking of King Duan's order, Wen Chunxiao felt confident again.

Emperor Yongning's eyes were full of anger when he learned that the rest of the wishful cake was mixed with something that was not good for pregnant women, but it became more and more serious.

It wouldn't be Ye Luo, but what I can do is to protect her and prevent her from being wronged in the midst of the storm.

Not long after, Yu Tong and Xia He, who brought the Queen Mother's order, also rushed to Ningde Hall with a few nuns.

Xia He stepped forward and bowed respectfully to Emperor Yongning, while Yu Tong on the side relayed the Queen Mother's oral order that the imperial physician must keep the emperor's veins and Lan Zhaoyi safe.

Most of the nuns brought here were those around the queen mother who knew how to give birth, and hurried into the delivery room to help.

After listening to the verbal instructions, Emperor Yongning nodded, and cupped his hands in the direction of the Jingxin Hall: "I understand."

Seeing that He Lan was not feeling well, Jiang Jinyan hurriedly got up and left the delivery room. Unexpectedly, Xia He and Yu Tong also arrived.

Xia He is no longer as restrained as she used to be. Although she walked quickly, she was very imposing, "Sister Jinyan, what's going on inside?"

Jiang Jinyan said worriedly: "Your Majesty is exhausted, I'm afraid I have to change the prescription again."

Emperor Yongning said to Jiang Jin: "The imperial physician is already discussing the prescription."

Xia He pulled Jiang Jinyan to the side, "How could it be a premature birth? I was really sweating when I heard the news from the Queen Mother. This is eight months..."

Jiang Jinyan hurriedly said: "It seems that he took something to induce labor by mistake..."

Xia He was startled, "Has the Holy One sent someone to investigate?"

Jiang Jinyan shook his head, "I've been in the delivery room all this time, and I never knew about it."

At this time, the eunuch on the side entered the yard, "Report to the Holy Majesty, Wangyue Zhai has been surrounded, the cooks in the small kitchen have also been arrested, and the servants have sent people to search the small kitchen!"

Emperor Yongning nodded, and said sharply: "Let me continue to investigate."

Jiang Jinyan and Xia He looked at each other, Xia He frowned and said, "Mr. Ye Gui? Is this related to her?"

Jiang Jinyan also had no idea, shook his head, but hesitated for a moment before saying: "Mr. Wengui has long insisted that there is something wrong with Ye Guiren's pastries."

At this point, Emperor Yongning has not doubted Ye Guiren?She hasn't even been convicted yet... He Lan is right, Emperor Yongning really treats nobleman Ye differently.

If this matter was really done deliberately, it would be to take the opportunity of getting rid of the child in He Lan's womb to drag nobleman Ye into the water!
She secretly thought badly, "Are all the people sent by the Queen Mother reliable?"

Xia He hurriedly replied: "It will be fine. The Queen Mother is very careful in employing people, and those nuns are not afraid of delivering babies. Don't worry, Sister Jinyan."

Jiang Jinyan paused and said, "In that case, I'm going to have a look at that plate of pastries."

Xia He nodded, and said in a low voice: "I also believe that Ye Luo is not such a person, I also want to find out why."

The two quickly entered the flower hall on the side, and the imperial doctor found out that the wishful cake was mixed with rattan.

Although this herbal medicine is often added to the medicated diet to nourish the spleen and stomach, if a pregnant woman who is one month old accidentally takes it, it will be harmful to the fetus in the abdomen.

Jiang Jinyan picked up a piece of wishful cake and looked at it for a while, "Doctor Wu, you said that the rattan will be harmful to the fetus in the womb, so it will cause the empress to mobilize early?"

Imperial Physician Wu didn't dare to nod, and said anxiously: "I don't dare to be so sure, it's just that there is a possibility of influence, and I have only found out the reason so far, so I can only report it like this."

Jiang Jinyan was silent for a long time, and Xia He beside him didn't dare to disturb him, but just sat quietly.

Suddenly, Jiang Jinyan said suddenly, "No, although vines are not good for pregnant women, what if they meet Chuan hibiscus, which is even more contradictory?"

Physician Wu was shocked when he heard Jiang Jinyan say Chuan Jinpi, "That's going to be troublesome!"
