Chapter 183 Nan Ruoqing's Miscarriage
At this moment, a graceful figure came into everyone's sight.
I saw a beautiful and graceful woman walking towards Emperor Suwen with light steps, like a fairy.
"Your Majesty, the person coming is Concubine Rong! Since the birth of the third prince, Concubine Rong has been living in seclusion. Not only has she never participated in any court banquets, she has never even shown up at family gatherings. Why does she suddenly show up here today?" The attendant at the side reminded softly.
After hearing this, Emperor Suwen suddenly woke up from his dream, and memories of Concubine Rong gradually emerged in his mind.
He couldn't help but recall that when he had just ascended the throne, in order to consolidate his power, he had to marry the current empress and this Rong Fei. At that time, the two had fought openly and secretly for the position of empress, causing a stir in the city.
Concubine Rong walked up gracefully, performed a standard etiquette to Emperor Suwen, and said softly: "Your Majesty, please don't blame me. I heard that the Regent Princess made great contributions to the treatment of the plague this time. I am full of curiosity and admiration for such a capable woman, so I came here presumptuously to see her style. If I am impolite, I hope Your Majesty will forgive me."
Emperor Suwen stared at the woman in front of him, and felt as if time had not left any mark on her beautiful face.
The once arrogant Concubine Rong has now lost her sharpness and become gentle and graceful. At this moment, she is like a flower blooming in spring, exuding charming charm.
"Come and sit next to me. I have neglected you over the years. Eunuch Liu is drafting an edict. I want to promote Concubine Rong to Noble Concubine Rong."
The eyes of the Third Prince, who was sitting in the corner, lit up. Yun Yuxi, who was full and satisfied, happened to see this scene. She couldn't help but think to herself, "It seems that this Third Prince is not simple. I'm afraid he is just pretending to be stupid."
Concubine Shu, looking at Concubine Rong sitting next to Emperor Suwen, was so angry that her face was distorted. However, her target today was Nan Ruoqing, so she quickly calmed down.
Yun Yuxi was whispering to Yan Wuque about her suspicions about the Third Prince when a crisp voice was heard.
"Your servant, the Third Prince's wife, would like to offer a glass of wine to the Imperial Uncle and the Imperial Aunt on behalf of my husband. I do not drink alcohol before, so I will offer tea instead. I hope the Imperial Uncle and the Imperial Aunt will forgive me."
Yun Yuxi slowly raised her head, and where her eyes fell, she saw Qi Yue, who was now the Third Prince's consort, standing gracefully in front of her, holding a delicate teacup carefully in her hand.
Yun Yuxi stared at Qi Yue in front of her, and a complex emotion surged in her heart, but she soon regained her composure. She nodded slightly to show respect, then picked up the wine in her glass and took a sip.
Then, she stepped forward, came to Qi Yue's side, reached out and patted her shoulder gently, and lowered her voice, whispering:
"Qi Yue, I really don't want to confront you. You have been pregnant for two months now, so you need to be extra cautious in everything.
After you go back, please tell the Third Prince that I already know his secret. As long as he is willing to pay me 100,000 taels of silver, I will keep silent about this matter. "
When the Third Prince's wife heard this, she was stunned and stood there in a daze. The words that Yun Yuxi had just said kept echoing in her mind. For a moment, her mind was in a mess and she seemed a little at a loss.
After a moment's hesitation, she turned around hastily and returned to the Third Prince with a slightly staggering step.
"Hmph! Are you short of money? I didn't expect Ming Hao to be so secretive. I'm afraid those spies I planted in Kyoto were all secretly removed by him." Yan Wuque raised the corner of his mouth and murmured in a low voice.
"Haha, one hundred thousand taels of silver? Do you think he will be so angry that he will be fuming?" A bright smile broke out on Yun Yuxi's face, as if she had accomplished something great.
Yan Wuque looked at her with eyes full of love and agreed softly, "Well, it turns out that you are the best at this." His words were full of praise and admiration for Yun Yuxi's wisdom.
Suddenly, a sharp and piercing scream interrupted the originally lively palace banquet!
Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw Nan Ruoqing's face as pale as paper, her hands tightly covering her abdomen, her body swaying, and finally she fell to the ground with a bang, unable to get up again.
Not long after, a shocking scene appeared - a pool of bright red blood slowly flowed out from under her body, like a blood-colored flower blooming on the ground, emitting a strong bloody smell.
Emperor Su Wen, who had been immersed in his own thoughts, finally came to his senses. He suddenly let go of Concubine Rong's hand and ran towards Nan Ruoqing like an arrow.
The eunuch Liu who was following nearby was so frightened that he shouted with a trembling voice: "Imperial Physician! Call the imperial physician quickly!" His terrified look made people feel that the situation was serious.
At this moment, the silent Consort Shu stepped forward and said to Emperor Suwen with a serious look, "Your Majesty, in my opinion, it would be better to ask the Regent Princess to come and treat Sister Qing. You know, the Regent Princess's medical skills are unparalleled, and are not inferior to those famous doctors in the Imperial Hospital."
Hearing this, the panicked Emperor Su Wen instantly regained some of his sanity. He quickly turned to look at Yun Yuxi and shouted anxiously:
"Sister-in-law, I'm counting on you this time! No matter what, please do your best to save Qing'er and the fetus in your belly. I have full confidence in your medical skills!"
The Queen also cast her gaze towards Yun Yuxi, with a hint of firmness and trust in her eyes, and said softly: "Regent Princess, just let go and rescue her.
If you need any medicinal herbs, please go to my private storehouse and get them. Please make sure that Concubine Qing and her son are safe and sound."
Yun Yuxi hurriedly walked over and quickly checked Nan Ruoqing, frowning, and finally shook her head and said to Emperor Su Wen.
"Your Majesty, the fetus in Concubine Qing's belly has been dead for a long time. According to the time, it has been almost three days. It did not die today. I ask Your Majesty to allow me to remove the dead fetus from Concubine Qing's belly. If there is any delay, I am afraid that Concubine Qing will be in great danger."
When Nan Ruoqing heard that the child was gone, she was so excited that blood gushed out from under her body. Her eyes rolled back and she fainted.
Concubine Shu patted her chest and breathed a sigh of relief, finally getting rid of that bastard.
Emperor Suwen said with a grim face, "You should treat Qing'er first, and then go to my Longwu Palace. I want to know who murdered my offspring."
"Royal brother, let Yu'er treat Concubine Qing first. This is a matter of great importance. Please investigate this matter thoroughly," Yan Wuque said to Emperor Suwen while rocking his wheelchair.
"No one who attends the palace banquet today is allowed to leave the palace. You are all suspects. When I find out, I will definitely exterminate all nine generations of his clan." After saying this, Emperor Suwen was so angry that he spit out blood.
The Empress was so frightened that she immediately ordered the imperial physician to examine Emperor Suwen.
The ministers knew that Emperor Suwen had always favored Concubine Qing from southern Xinjiang, and they were afraid that if they murdered her this time, it would be a capital crime, so people were in a panic for a while.
