Chapter 218 Another Trick
Baoying nodded: "It is my ignorance, I understand, thank you for your advice."
"Okay, you're pregnant now, go back and rest." Xia Dongchun said lazily, "If you need anything, just tell me."
"Yes." Baoying took the palace maid Jingque back.
After that, everything was peaceful for a while until the Mid-Autumn Festival in August, when the emperor returned.
The entire Zhen family was convicted and Zhen Yuandao was also sent to prison.
But this news did not have much impact on Xia Dongchun.
After all, her relationship with Zhen Huan was not that good, and her family had no friendship with the Zhen family. At most, she could only sigh that things in the world are unpredictable.
I just heard that because of Zhen Huan's pregnancy, no one dared to tell her about this matter for the time being.
As autumn approaches, the weather gradually turns cooler. Baoying has been in a bad mood recently and always feels uncomfortable. When Xia Dongchun finds out, he can't help but feel worried.
After all, Baoying is a member of her palace, and the baby in her belly is hers to take care of. If something really happens to her, it would be bad.
"Chan Yi, go to the Imperial Hospital and ask Imperial Doctor Xu and Imperial Doctor Wen to come over and check on Baoguiren together." Xia Dongchun originally wanted to ask Xu Zhiyun to come, but after thinking about it, he decided it would be better to ask the two imperial doctors to come together.
Xia Dongchun did not call Baoying to come over, but asked Chanyi to go with her and bring the imperial physician back to report when the time comes.
The room was separated by a screen, and a thick blanket was spread on the floor next to the couch. Ling Yuan was sitting on the floor playing, with a wet nurse watching over her.
Xia Dongchun was leaning on the couch, flipping through the account book that had been sent to him.
Recently, the Queen always used the excuse of having a headache to leave all these matters to her, so that she had a headache from looking at the account books all day long.
After reading the account book, Xia Dongchun put it aside and rubbed his brows: "Yunling, is Lan Cheng's face completely healed?"
Yun Ling bowed: "Lan promised earlier to send someone to tell her that her face has healed and she is waiting for the time when the queen is free to come and thank her in person."
"Mother, mother, I want to eat jade bean cake." Ling Yuan on the ground stretched out his little head and looked at Xia Dongchun on the couch.
Xia Dongchun looked at her daughter's chubby little face and felt a little worried. She was now having a hard time holding Ling Yuan.
But then he thought, being able to eat is a blessing, and for a girl, round and smooth pearls are also beautiful, so he said, "Okay, okay, I'll ask the kitchen to make it for you later."
About an incense stick of time passed, Chan Yi came with Xu Zhiyun and Wen Shichu.
"Your humble servant pays his respects to Queen Zhao. May Her Majesty be well." Xu Zhiyun and Wen Shichu both saluted.
Xia Dongchun: "Please don't be polite, my two lords. I asked you to come here to ask about the precious baby's pregnancy. She has been in a bad mood these days."
"This..." Xu Zhiyun and Wen Shichu looked at each other, not knowing whether they should say it.
Yin Zhu reacted very quickly. With a roll of his eyes, he sent the rest of the palace maids and eunuchs away. The wet nurse also left first, holding Ling Yuan.
Xia Dongchun: "You two adults, just say whatever you want to say. Since I called you here, I naturally want to hear the truth."
After hesitating for a moment, Xu Zhiyun spoke first: "My queen, it seems that someone mixed a banana into the precious man's pregnancy-preserving medicine."
"Oh? What's that for? I remember that bananas are not poisonous."
Since he had already spoken, Wen Shichu continued, "Your Majesty is right. Bananas are not poisonous, but they are cold in nature. Pregnant women should not eat them. Otherwise, it may affect the fetus at best and cause stillbirth. At worst, it may lead to dystocia, and it is very likely that both mother and child will be harmed."
"How could something like this get into the pregnancy-preserving medicine for a precious person?" A thought flashed through Xia Dongchun's mind quickly, but it was so fast that she didn't have time to react, and the thought disappeared again.
"I know you will report today's incident to the emperor, but we should not alert the enemy. In order to find out the person who framed our precious person, I would like you two adults to explain the interests involved to the emperor." Xia Dongchun explained.
"Yes." Xu Zhiyun and Wen Shichu agreed.
"Then I'll trouble you two masters." Xia Dongchun gestured to Chan Yi to send Wen Shichu out, "Master Xu happened to be here, why don't you ask for Ping An's pulse for me today."
It was obvious that he had something to say to Xu Zhiyun alone.
Xu Zhiyun also understood, nodded and bowed, and stayed in the hall.
"If this banana is taken for a long time, what kind of child will my precious give birth to?" Somehow, Xia Dongchun thought of the stillborn baby that Fu Cha had given birth to before.
Xu Zhiyun paused for a moment, thought for a moment, and replied: "I'm afraid that even if the baby is born, it will be a stillbirth, and there will be bruises on the body of the dead baby."
Xia Dongchun's pupils shrank slightly, and after a long while, she nodded: "I understand, you can leave now."
"Yes, I'll take my leave." Xu Zhiyun walked out.
"Yunling, come with me to the Palace of Tranquil Longevity." This matter cannot be kept secret. Instead of waiting for Yinzhen to come and ask in person, it is better for Xia Dongchun to take the initiative herself to avoid someone using this matter to throw dirty water on her.
Yun Ling hurriedly ordered the sedan chair and followed Xia Dongchun to the Yangxin Palace.
When Xia Dongchun arrived, Wen Shichu had just left the Yangxin Palace.
When Su Peisheng saw Xia Dongchun, he could guess why she came, and he bowed and saluted: "Madam Zhao Fei, please wait a moment. I will go in and tell you."
Xia Dongchun nodded.
Soon, Su Peisheng came out: "Your Majesty, the Emperor wants you to come in."
"Thank you, eunuch." Xia Dongchun didn't have time to say more. He left Yun Ling outside and went in.
"Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you. May your Majesty be blessed with good health." Xia Dongchun saluted.
Yinzhen: "I heard that there was a problem with the pregnancy-preserving medicine for the precious lady?"
"Your Majesty, yes." Xia Dongchun replied, "Precious lady has been in a bad mood recently. I thought that no matter what, I would have to ask the imperial physician to take a look. Who knew that the check would actually reveal a problem. However, I have asked the imperial physician Xu. According to the imperial physician Xu, fortunately, precious lady did not use much. As long as she stops taking it now and takes good care of herself, the heir in her belly can still be healthy."
