Chapter 261 The Imperial Concubine is Pure and Elegant (10)

Cui Li was indeed shocked after hearing this. She recalled the interactions between the two and the original owner. At most, they had some friendship. She never expected that they actually liked the original owner!

The two of them hid their thoughts very well. Perhaps they felt that Cui Li and Liang Sheng were in love with each other and did not want to say it out loud to cause Cui Li more trouble.

Looking at Emperor Liang's attitude, she understood that he certainly didn't know that these two people had secretly proposed marriage to the Cui family, otherwise how could he be so magnanimous and reuse his love rival?

Liang Sheng gently wiped Cui Li's cheek and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that her expression relaxed a little.

Liang Sheng: "Li'er, please wake up soon and stop scaring Ah Sheng."

Liang Sheng sat for half an hour, then hurried away to go to the imperial study to handle government affairs. He wanted to finish his work quickly and come back to accompany Cui Li.

Concubine Xu had trouble sleeping on the bed. Logically, she should have rested more since she had just had a miscarriage, but she was afraid of making a mistake at this critical juncture. Xi'e was the daughter of a family and the whole family was in her hands. Concubine Xu was not too worried that Xi'e would confess. As long as Xi'e insisted on not saying anything, Concubine Xu would not be too worried.

The queen and others went to the main hall to visit Cui Li.

Empress Ji: “Is Concubine Cui awake?”

The palace maid outside the door said respectfully: "Reporting to the Queen, the Imperial Concubine is still unconscious and has not woken up yet."

Empress Ji: "In that case, I and the other sisters will go back and rest for a while, and then come back to see the Imperial Concubine in an hour."

"Yes, I respectfully bid farewell to the Queen and all the ladies."

The queen, accompanied by many palace maids, returned to Chengqian Palace in a phoenix sedan chair. After a short nap, she woke up to hear that Gu Chongyi had captured a mysterious imperial physician.

Empress Ji: "Gu Chongyi? How could it be her?"

"Your Majesty, I heard that Gu Chongyi accidentally saw Doctor Xu leaving the palace in a hurry and felt something was amiss, so she sent for him to be arrested. Your Majesty has already interrogated Doctor Xu and is now bringing him to Concubine Xu."

Empress Ji: "Imperial Physician Xu? Wasn't he the imperial physician who took Concubine Xu's pulse? Could it be that Concubine Xu's pregnancy is fake? No, several imperial physicians took Concubine Xu's pulse and confirmed that she was pregnant."

Queen Ji reached out and helped the palace maid to undress her. After a quick wash, she prepared to go out.

Empress Ji: "Is Concubine Xu still in the side hall of Xiefang Palace?"

"Reporting to the Queen, Concubine Xu had a miscarriage and it is difficult to move. His Majesty has specially allowed her to stay in Xiefang Palace to rest for two days."

Queen Ji: "Let's go and watch the show."

Empress Ji had a premonition that Concubine Xu was going to be in trouble.

Sure enough, as soon as Empress Ji entered the side hall, she heard Concubine Xu kneeling on the ground and crying out for justice.

Concubine Xu: "Your Majesty, this is unjust! How could I collude with the imperial physician to frame the Imperial Concubine? The Imperial Concubine is of noble status, I would never dare to do that!"

Empress Ji was standing outside the hall. When she heard Concubine Xu say "noble status", she dug her long fingertips into her palms and stood there without saying a word.

Liang Sheng: "You're still quibbling! This imperial physician, Xu Chong, is from your clan, and is considered your distant cousin. Your pregnancy has always been in his care, and he has already admitted that your fetus is in an abnormal position and is weak, and you couldn't be born. It was you who asked him to prescribe medicine to force the fetus to stay."

Liang Sheng: "You didn't stay in the palace for a long time, but went to the Imperial Garden to meet the Imperial Concubine. You know your intentions!"

Liang Sheng: "Why did you immediately find the gardener and the eunuch who greased the imperial garden? That's because you wrote and directed all of this yourself!"

Concubine Xu: "I didn't! I really don't dare to frame the concubine! As for the child, Doctor Xu knows it best. My son was just weak at the time. If I give him a few more doses of medicine, he will definitely be saved! He is my future support, how could I possibly harm him?"

"Empress Xu, why don't you confess? Doctor Xu's entire family is under His Majesty's control. How could he dare to lie? Xi'e has already confessed. You were the one who orchestrated the incident in the Imperial Garden. Sister Cui is still unconscious. Poor Sister Cui is kind-hearted and willing to save you because she didn't want anything to happen to the child. But she had no idea that someone was so cruel that he would use his own flesh and blood as a scapegoat just to frame her!"

Concubine Xu looked up and glared at Gu Chongyi, crying and laughing at the same time.

Concubine Xu: "I am a vicious and cruel person?"
