It seems that someone in the harem violated his orders and did not drink the contraceptive potion sent to him this time. Moreover, the people around him did not tell him.
Generally speaking, such things are handled by the eunuch who is close to him. Shen Zhongbai easily thought of the last time the little eunuch next to him deceived him and let him go to Gu Zhiyao's palace. Apart from him, Shen Zhongbai really couldn't think of anyone else who was so bold and dared to do such a thing.
Shen Zhongbai called the little eunuch who had been standing at the door in, and said with a gloomy face, "Do you know what you did wrong? You are too courageous. I have kept you by my side for so long, but I have never I never thought that as someone close to me, you would bite me back and dare to hide such an important matter from me."
Shen Zhongbai felt vaguely that this matter must be related to the little eunuch beside him, so he immediately increased his tone and wanted to threaten him to see if he would directly tell the truth about the matter.
The little eunuch was shocked when he heard the emperor talking to him like this, but he still insisted that he didn't know anything and didn't know what Shen Zhongbai was talking about.
Shen Zhongbai didn't bother to play riddles with him and directly said what he wanted to ask. "Every time I ask you to watch the concubines drink the contraceptive potion with your own eyes, do you watch every one of them with your own eyes? Will anyone do anything to the soup after you leave?"
When the little eunuch heard what the emperor said, he almost knew that for such a long time, the only person who dared to bargain with him was Gu Zhiyao. Now that the emperor said this, it was very likely that there was something wrong with Gu Zhiyao.
"Your Majesty, it is true that once the servant just sent the soup over and did not watch the empress drink the medicine. However, the servant has already conveyed that the soup must be drunk. I don't know if the empress followed the emperor's instructions. Did as ordered."
The little eunuch didn't know how to explain it for a moment, but he remembered what Gu Zhiyao said to him that day. At this time, pretending to be stupid was the most important thing.
"That concubine, can't she be Gu Zhiyao? If I remember correctly, it was you who helped Gu Zhiyao deceive me last time and let me go to her palace. Otherwise, the following things would not have happened. You let me It’s hard for me to believe that this matter has nothing to do with you.”
Having said this, Shen Zhongbai almost knew it in his heart. It seemed that this little eunuch had indeed helped Gu Zhiyao do something for some reasons, but no matter what the reason was, he would not keep it. People continue to be by their side.
"You should also know my rules. Now that you have done something, I will not let you go so easily. Someone, drag this dog slave down and press him into the dungeon."
After Shen Zhongbai almost knew what happened, he would probably start to deal with Gu Zhiyao's matter now. In this palace, there must be no one with scheming ideas or backgrounds who can conceive their own children. What's more, I am still young. If I want to have children, there will be many opportunities in the future. In short, , this child’s mother must not be Gu Zhiyao.
Gu Zhiyao was feeling complacent in her heart, feeling that she had passed the test, but she never thought that there was a bigger crisis waiting for her.
Shen Zhongbai didn't think this was a trivial matter. So he came to Gu Zhiyao's palace in person. Gu Zhiyao did not expect that the emperor would come here in person. When he heard that he was coming, he was naturally overjoyed. Since the emperor left last time, the people in the harem, although their attitude towards her It got better for a while. But then it gradually became colder. After all, the emperor only came once.
But it was different now. She was pregnant with a child, and her status was no longer comparable to that of other women in the harem.
After Gu Zhiyao dressed up carefully, she hurried out to meet the driver, but she didn't expect that the person who came was angry.
"What's going on, Your Majesty? He seems unhappy."
Gu Zhiyao originally thought that Shen Zhongbai came here today because he wanted to say something important to her, but she did not expect that he did come with anger. "Why did I come here? Don't you have any idea?"
Shen Zhongbai sneered. To be honest, the woman in front of him was really good at pretending. In comparison, she actually liked Gu Zhihua more.
"You are the first person in the harem who dares to disobey my orders. When I let you enter the palace, I never thought that you would be so bold, and that you would dare to do such an important thing. Is it true that you are obeying the law and violating the law?"
Gu Zhiyao quickly understood what the person in front of him meant, but she still wanted to pretend to be confused, maybe she could get through it.
"So what do you mean, Your Majesty, by coming here today? Are you here to play riddles with me?"
"Remember that your father has done a lot of things for me, so I won't embarrass you this time. If you abort the child in your belly, I will let you live. Anyway, you can't have a child. Come down."
Shen Zhongbai will indeed not let anyone who has any purpose for him become pregnant with his child. Gu Zhiyao obviously didn't expect that Shen Zhongbai would know about this matter so quickly. I originally thought that it was Shen Simiyin who secretly leaked the news, but I didn't expect that it was Shen Simiyin who exposed the truth when he was getting medicine in the big hospital.
"Your Majesty, this is your own flesh and blood. Do you have the heart to strangle him like this?" Gu Zhiyao also wanted to use the family card, but she had never thought about the reason why the person in front of her could sit firmly on the throne. It's because he doesn't understand what family affection is. His brothers and feet were almost mutilated by him, how could he still care about such an immature child
"With so many concubines in the harem, is there still a shortage of this one child? You threaten me with this matter. Don't you think it's a bit ridiculous?" Shen Zhongbai only felt that Gu Zhiyao's statement was a bit ridiculous, When it comes to brains, he is indeed inferior to Gu Zhihua and Gu Qiang, and he would actually want to use such a clumsy method to threaten himself.
"I have put the words here. I have also asked the big hospital to prepare the medicine. The rest is up to you. Do you want your life or the life of the child in your belly? Anyway, You have to remember that no matter what, this child will not be born.”
Gu Zhiyao originally thought that with Shen Siyin's blessing, she would go very smoothly, but she didn't expect that the final result would still be like this.
"Madam, the medicine is ready for you."
Gu Zhiyao looked at the thick soup in front of her, still feeling a little unbearable, and wanted to make a final struggle, so she knocked over the bowl in front of her and fled to Shen Siyin's palace.
"Your Highness, please save me! I really don't want to lose the child in my belly."
Shen Siyin was playing with your potted plants in the palace when he suddenly saw Gu Zhiyao stumbling in.
He had reminded her long ago that his fetus was unstable and he must not do any strenuous activities. Why was he still so reckless? But after seeing Gu Zhiyao's panicked look, Shen Siyin realized that something important must have happened.
"What's wrong with you? Don't be anxious. If you have something to say, please speak slowly, okay?" Shen Siyin didn't understand what happened for a while, but he just felt that the person in front of him seemed to be emotionally unstable. She didn't dare to act rashly for fear of irritating her.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, he doesn't want this child and wants to abort him."
After hearing these words, Shen Siyin really couldn't sit still. After all, he was also a life, and he was already very lucky to be able to come to this world. Every life has its own spirituality, how can it be so careless
Shen Siyin didn't know what the purpose of the woman in front of her was to come to her, but she really didn't want her unborn little life to be ruined like this. Although he didn't like Gu Zhiyao very much, he was still ready to help her.
Shen Zhongbai already knew about Gu Zhiyao knocking the medicine to the ground, and he was even more angry. He heard that he ran to his sister. He rushed over directly.
"Brother Imperial, please don't be anxious. We can still discuss this matter, right?" Shen Siyin looked at Shen Zhongbai walking over angrily and thought to himself that he had never seen the Imperial Brother so angry before. With his appearance, it seems that the emperor brother is determined this time and does not want this child.
"Get out of the way, otherwise I will deal with you as well. You are protecting this sinner now. Do you know how the child in her belly came from?"
The anger in Shen Zhongbai's heart could no longer be suppressed. Indeed, who can bear it? Why was he so deceived by the people around him
"But brother, the child in her belly is your own flesh and blood. This is also your first child. Don't you have a little bit of compassion?" Shen Siyin still wanted to let his royal brother treat him. She was merciful. Although Gu Zhiyao was not a very good person, the child in her belly was innocent after all. Naturally, she still hoped that the emperor would not act so hastily.
"Where is she now? You hiding her now will not do her any good. If she is obedient now and drinks the medicine, maybe I can keep her alive. If she continues to resist, I will Not sure what I will do.”
