"Report to the emperor that the concubine Li is not pregnant."
"Reporting to the emperor, the result of my pulse diagnosis is also the same. The concubine Li is not pregnant."
"Report to the emperor..."
A total of ten imperial doctors came, which is almost all the doctors in the imperial hospital, and their answers were exactly the same. They all said that Empress Li was not pregnant, her pulse was strong, and she was in good health, not at all. There is a pulse condition of a pregnant woman.
Hearing what these imperial doctors said, Ling Jing's face darkened inch by inch. She never thought that these imperial doctors would say that she was not pregnant. How could it be possible? Could it be that the high technology she used has failed? Impossible, how could this be
Ling Jing wanted to explain something, but the emperor didn't give her a chance to speak at all. He didn't even look at Ling Jing, but looked at Song Yuyi who was standing at the end.
Last night, Imperial Physician Song gave Ling Jing the pulse. It was also Imperial Physician Song who swore that Ling Jing was pregnant for one month. He is a master in gynecology. He diagnosed almost all pregnant concubines in the harem. In the past, he never There has never been any mistake, how could there be such a big mistake this time? Could it be that he was really bribed by Ling Jing, and that's why he was in cahoots with Ling Jing and joined forces to deceive him
Imperial Physician Song has worked as an imperial physician in the palace for so many years, and has had many contacts with the emperor. He also has some understanding of the emperor's character. After seeing the expression on the emperor's face, imperial physician Song immediately knew that the emperor was I became suspicious of him, thinking that he and Ling Jing had teamed up to deceive people.
But Doctor Song can guarantee with his head that last night he did diagnose the pulse of pregnancy. He didn't know why Ling Jing's pulse was completely different from last night after one night. It was just this weirdness. The emperor may not believe what he said, Song Yuyi thought about it a thousand times, and quickly figured out how to explain it.
"My Majesty, this is my mistake. Last night, I did diagnose that Concubine Li was pregnant. At the banquet last night, Concubine Li's pulse was like rolling balls. It was indeed a slippery pulse. The minister can use the head of the item as a guarantee."
It has come to such a point, Song Yuyi still said such words, the emperor almost laughed at what Song Yuyi said, he looked at Song Yuyi who was kneeling on the ground, and said in a cold voice.
"Since you said that Zhou Wanrong is pregnant, why are all the imperial doctors now diagnosing that she is not pregnant? Are you better than all the imperial doctors? Or is it just one night? The child just disappeared out of thin air?"
Seeing that the emperor seemed to be angry, Song Yuyi kowtowed heavily to the emperor, and then quickly explained: "The emperor calms down, I don't mean that, the concubine Li did have slippery pulse last night, but today I can be sure In other words, Empress Li is not pregnant, and her body is full of qi and blood, and it is not the pulse of a small childbirth, so yesterday's pulse is a wrong diagnosis by the minister."
After a pause, Physician Song continued: "However, a woman who has never been pregnant is diagnosed with Huamai. This kind of thing is not an exception. If a woman desperately wants a child and keeps hinting If you are pregnant, there may be a false pregnancy, and if you are a false pregnancy, the pulse condition is the same as that of a real pregnant woman, but this pulse condition does not last long and will return to normal soon."
Doctor Song said with certainty that Ling Jing wanted a child very much, that's why she lied to herself. This also caused his pulse to mutate, causing her pulse to become the same as that of a pregnant woman. In one night, her pulse returned to normal, that's why the pregnancy pulse was detected yesterday, and today's pregnancy pulse disappeared quickly.
After hearing what Song Yuyi said, the emperor was dubious, and felt that the reason he said was too unbelievable to be believed. The emperor couldn't confirm whether Song Yuyi's words were true or not, so he turned his attention to other people. Those imperial doctors are waiting for their answers.
The other imperial doctors affirmed what the Song imperial doctor said. They told the emperor that although there were very few cases of false pregnancy like the concubine Li, there were records in the books, such as some unofficial histories in the countryside and other cases. Cases of this kind of false pregnancy have been written in the works written by some doctors who are alive.
In the end, the emperor chose to believe the words of Imperial Physician Song - with so many doctors testifying together, the probability of Imperial Physician Song lying is not high, but even if he believed their words, the emperor's trust in Imperial Physician Song would have dropped a lot. Because the imperial doctor of Song Dynasty diagnosed Ling Jing as pregnant yesterday, he would not announce Ling Jing as a noble concubine in front of so many people. He had already said that he wanted to be a noble concubine, but now Ling Jing is not pregnant. Isn't this letting him slap himself in the face
My face was all lost because of Song Yuyi, how could the emperor still have a good impression of Song Yuyi
Because of the death of two maidservants in the sleeping hall, Ling Jing was temporarily placed in the side hall next to it. With so many imperial physicians, the space in the entire side hall seemed extremely crowded.
The emperor waved his hand and signaled the imperial doctors to leave. They already knew what they needed to know, and it was useless for the imperial doctors to stay inside, instead it made them laugh.
Seeing that those imperial doctors were about to leave, Qi Wang took a step forward and whispered something in the emperor's ear. After hearing what Qi Wang said, the emperor was slightly taken aback and thought for a while After that, he immediately looked at the imperial doctors, and then he pointed to the imperial physician Song to let the other imperial physicians leave, while the imperial physician Song went to check on the two dead maids.
Hearing the emperor said that he wanted to check the cause of death of the two dead maids, the expression on Song Yuyi's face dimmed instantly. He knew that if he really went, he might lose himself in the Tai Hospital in the future. s position.
He is an imperial doctor of the imperial hospital, who is specialized in taking the pulse of the ladies in the palace, and now he is assigned by the emperor to check the cause of death of the maid, isn't that just a job for a servant girl? Those women in the harem taboo this matter, who will let him continue to see a doctor
Doctor Song knew that the emperor was venting his anger, but the pulse condition last night was indeed diagnosed by him. If he really counted it, he had committed the crime of deceiving the emperor, and it was thanks to the emperor's kindness. Otherwise, such a big mistake would have occurred. It is normal to be beheaded. Song Yuyi had nothing to say, and obediently followed the eunuch appointed by the emperor to the bedroom.
After leaving some people, the space in the side hall finally became a little more spacious.
Ling Jing, who was still crying loudly, stopped crying, as if she knew she had made a mistake, she lowered her head, not daring to say a word.
Seeing Ling Jing like this, the Empress also felt a little bored, but the Empress also knew that Ling Jing had unrivaled beauty and was backed by a son like the Sixth Prince at her knees. , but if you don't keep it all, Ling Jing will win over you in the end. At that time, will you still be able to defend yourself
So it's best to step on Ling Jing completely now when she has lost the emperor's heart, otherwise she will have a day of resurgence sooner or later.
Thinking of this, the queen said: "Sister Li Fei, I don't know what else you have to say now, didn't you swear before that you had the emperor's flesh and blood in your stomach, and that this palace deliberately framed you? Why don't you speak anymore? Bengong wants to hear, what else do you have to say?"
Ling Jing, who was sharp-tongued before and refused to budge an inch, did not say a word at this time. She also knew that she would be cowardly when she should be cowardly. Now this is not a good time to confront the queen. Previously, she relied on herself 'I'm pregnant', I was a bit arrogant when facing the queen, now the feng shui turns, it's the queen's turn to be arrogant.
Appropriate showing weakness will help the emperor feel sympathy for her, so that he will forget what he did before. What Ling Jing has to do now is to endure. The more arrogant and domineering the queen, the more weak and pitiful she will be. This appearance can always soften the emperor's heart.
Even if the emperor has never softened his heart, it doesn't matter. After all, she didn't say that she was pregnant, but Song Yuyi's pulse diagnosis was wrong. In this matter, she is also a complete victim, no matter how bad it is She can also keep her position as Concubine Li, even if she doesn't have the emperor's favor, it doesn't matter, she still has the strong backup of King Xin, as long as she works hard on Qi Wang, the emperor won't have a long life up.
Thinking of this, Ling Jing calmed down even more. She lowered her head and let the queen bully her, but she refused to say a word.
Seeing that the queen would continue to speak, the emperor raised his hand to stop the queen from continuing to speak.
Seeing the emperor like this, the queen felt a little bit in her heart. Could it be that the emperor was really persuaded by Ling Jing's pitiful appearance, had he forgotten what Ling Jing had done before
She wanted to say something, but seeing the emperor's cold expression, she still didn't say what she wanted to say. The queen sighed secretly, and looked at Ling Jing who was leaning on the bed with some gloom.
Is an unparalleled beauty face really so important? As long as she looks good, can the emperor give up her principles and pamper her unconditionally
Thinking of this, the empress can't help feeling a little bit dispirited. She herself has never been loved so wholeheartedly by the emperor, but now she is obtained by a worthless person like Ling Jing. The emperor is very suspicious. He has known the two for many years, and the emperor has never Putting complete trust in yourself, even if you dote on it, it is nothing more than respect for your first wife. It is really hard to say how sincere you are.
If it wasn't for the fact that the emperor was still standing here and did not leave, the empress would have already wanted to leave this Zhaoyang Palace and return to her own Kunning Palace.
Of course, the emperor didn't know what the empress was thinking, he just glanced at Ling Jing who was leaning on the bed, but he didn't go forward to comfort him as the empress thought.
"De Mao, you ask someone to show me Zhou Wanrong, and you won't let her have any contact with the outside world."
After giving these instructions, the emperor walked out of the side hall and headed towards the sleeping hall.
And Qi Huang followed behind the emperor, and walked towards the sleeping hall together with him.
The emperor glanced at Qi Huang, but after all, he still didn't say what he wanted to say.
Earlier Qi Wang said something in his ear, which made the emperor doubt in his heart, probably because of what Qi Wang said, the emperor felt that the original vague memories in his mind suddenly disappeared. It became clear, but those memories that suddenly became clear made the emperor break out in a cold sweat, feeling that this matter had become more and more unpredictable.
In fact, according to the emperor's original intention, he didn't want to continue to investigate this matter. However, there are too many mysteries in this matter, and the emperor always feels a little uneasy. Know what's going on
So the emperor didn't stay longer in the side hall, but came out of the side hall and walked towards the bedroom where the two dead servant girls were.
"Brother Huang, can you confirm that the person who was with you a month ago was Zhou Wanrong? Or even longer ago, when Zhou Wanrong first entered the palace, was it her who was with you? Have you never Have you ever wondered who the sixth prince's real mother is?"
The words Qi Wang said resurfaced in the emperor's mind again. He wanted to expel these words, but they were deeply engraved in his mind. No matter how he tried to expel them, he couldn't expel them. Get it out of your own mind.
The emperor didn't have any doubts before, but when Qi Wang said these words, the emperor fell into deep doubts, and the memories that he thought were very clear became blurred , The clearer memory in his mind is only the first few pictures, but after that, those pictures became blurred, and he felt that the people in those blurred pictures were very different from Ling Jing.
If the person with him was not Ling Jing, who would it be? If the sixth prince is not Ling Jing's flesh and blood, who could it be
The sixth prince is the child born to Ling Jing. As the saying goes, if you raise a child like your mother, the appearance of the son will always be somewhat similar to that of the mother, but the appearance of the sixth prince is completely different from Ling Jing. Ling Jing is a world-famous beauty. Her appearance is rare in the world. If the sixth prince is really her child, then the appearance of the sixth prince should have inherited some of Ling Jing's beauty, but the appearance of the sixth prince is not satisfactory.
If it wasn't for the fact that the sixth prince's face was somewhat similar to his own, the emperor might have doubted the origin of the child, but the sixth prince's appearance was somewhat similar to his own, so the emperor thought that the child was more like himself. A little more, it's normal to not look like Ling Jing.
But what Qi Wang said made the emperor fall into suspicion. He began to feel that the face of the sixth prince became a little familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere before. During the middle, the emperor's eyes could not help but fall on the servant girl lying on the ground.
When he saw the maid whose face had been cleaned of blood, the emperor was stunned.
These two servant girls are the personal palace ladies next to Ling Jing. They usually follow Ling Jing in and out, and they are always close to each other. , was completely covered by her halo, making it impossible for people to see their existence.
But now there is no Ling Jing in this bedroom, the appearance of that servant girl caught the eyes of the emperor, when he saw her face, the emperor quickly recognized that servant girl as Ling Jing's personal maid, Hongmei, but her appearance is five points similar to that of the sixth prince.
The sixth prince who was supposed to be Ling Jing's child had nothing but similarities with Ling Jing, but the appearance of the sixth prince was like that of the palace maid next to Ling Jing. What kind of coincidence could this have caused such a result
Those who can sit on the throne are not fools. Seeing Hongmei Aoxue, who had been dead for a long time, the emperor felt that his body had become stiff. Write.
How is this possible
The emperor didn't want to admit this absurd fact, so he looked at Song Yuyi, who had already examined the two court ladies, and asked a question regardless of his own image.
"Physician Song, are these two maids of honor Huanghua eldest daughters? Do they have any signs of giving birth?"
Doctor Song: "... Your Majesty, how do you know?"
According to common sense, these maids in the palace belong to the emperor. Even if the emperor has never favored them, they cannot be with anyone casually before they are released from the palace. Because of the possibility of being favored by the emperor, almost all of them kept their virginity in case of emergency.
The two dead ladies, Hongmei Aoxue, were no longer virgins, and both of them had signs of giving birth, but Song Yuyi, who had been in the imperial hospital for so long, had never heard of it. The emperor favored these two court ladies.
After examining the two maids, Song Yuyi was still hesitant, wondering whether he should tell the emperor about it, but he didn't expect that the emperor would come to ask him about it before he said anything. The emperor came because he knew what was going on with these two maids, and the imperial doctor Song did not dare to ask more questions, and directly answered the emperor's question.
"My Majesty, it is indeed as you said."
Previously, the emperor still had a faint hope in his heart, but he didn't expect that everything was just as he had guessed, that these two court ladies were really...
What a Zhou Wanrong, what a concubine Li, it seems that she pretended to be pregnant and pretended to be addicted, and actually came to deceive him one after another. Do you really think that the emperor is so stupid
The emperor who was extremely angry turned around and strode towards the outside of the dormitory. When he saw Qi Wang standing outside the dormitory, the emperor couldn't help but ask.
"Huian, how did you know about this?"
This matter involves the secrets of the palace, and he, the party involved, is not very clear about it, how did Qi Wang know? Could it be that he was really with that Zhou Wanrong...
Thinking of Ling Jing's expression when she looked at Qi Wang earlier, some not-so-good guesses emerged in the emperor's mind.
Ling Jing refused to be with her, and she was always lacking in interest in serving the bed. When she couldn't get rid of it, she found two maids to take her place, so between her and Qi Wang...
