Chapter 63 Unusual Red Date Soup

"First, take care of your health. You are still young, and you will eventually have children."

The queen gently helped Fucha up from the ground.

"Now that Concubine Shen is about to give birth, and Concubine Wan is also favored by the emperor, she will sooner or later be pregnant with a prince. If you give birth to a prince for the emperor, the palace will surely be bustling with activity."

"Yes, the Empress now visits Consort Shen in person at Cunju Hall every day, fearing that something might happen to her. The Empress Dowager has personally issued an order to protect her. However, judging by Consort Wan's frequency of sleeping with her, I guess she should be having children soon."

How could Jianqiu not know what the Queen meant? She seemed to be talking about the current situation in the palace unintentionally.

"Yes, Lady Wan must be pregnant soon."

Fucha muttered a few words softly, without any change in her facial expression, as if she was simply repeating Jianqiu's words.

The queen looked at her with a hint of deep meaning in her eyes. After comforting her a little, she left the Yanx Palace.

"Tui'er."

Fu Cha didn't know what she was thinking about. She habitually called out the name of her personal maid, and then she reacted.

Cui'er had been executed, and his child was born because of her.

She waved her hand and asked another maid, Hua Sui, to come forward. After whispering some instructions in her ear, she let her go.

A few days passed quietly like this. One day, Zhen Huan was chatting with Shen Meiyu in the palace when Hua Sui brought her a bowl of red date soup.

"Greetings to Lady Wan, greetings to Lady Shen. This is the red date soup made by my young mistress. She instructed me to send a portion to each palace. Thank you all for your concern for my young mistress during this period."

"Please thank your mistress for my kindness."

Zhen Huan watched Hua Sui put down the red date soup and leave. She exchanged a glance with Shen Meiyu and then turned her gaze back to the bowl of red date soup on the table in front of her.

The corners of their mouths both revealed a hint of sarcasm at the same time.

This Fu Cha family is really stupid. Has she started poisoning people using real names?

"Huan'er, do you think this was Fucha's idea, or was it that person who instigated it?"

Chen Meizhuang really couldn't understand why Fu Cha had such a naive idea that they would definitely be able to eat the food she sent.

Zhen Huan smiled, then picked up the bowl of red date soup and smelled it.

"Huanbi, go get Doctor Wen and tell him he hasn't taken my pulse yet."

"yes."

Under the guidance of Huanbi, Doctor Wen quickly arrived at Suiyuxuan.

He picked up the bowl of soup on the table, first put it to the tip of his nose to smell it, then scooped a small spoonful into his mouth and tasted it lightly, and the expression on his face suddenly changed.

"My lady, this soup contains a strong scent of musk. If you accidentally drink it, it will cause irreparable harm to women."

After hearing this, Shen Meizhuang's face turned pale. She thought that Fu Cha might have put something in it, but she didn't expect her to be so vicious.

She was about to give birth, and if she accidentally drank this bowl of red date soup, the consequences would be unimaginable.

"Jinxi, go and invite the emperor."

"Huanbi, go to Yikun Palace and tell Concubine Hua what's going on here. And ask her to check if there's anything wrong with the soup she received in the palace."

“Hurry up!!”

Zhen Huan gave serious orders to several people. This time she would never let Fu Cha have any chance of escape.

"Doctor Wen, is there any way you can make Sister Mei look..."

Before Zhen Huan could finish her words, Wen Shichu knew what she wanted to say.

"My lord, I have a plan..."

Wen Shichu had said before that he could no longer give Zhen Huan a stable life, so he would do his best to protect her, and he still thought the same thing now.

He picked up the medicine box he carried with him, took out a silver needle from it, and came to Chen Meizhuang.

"Doctor Wen, this may cause harm to Sister Mei's health."

“Don’t worry, my lady. This will only make your complexion look a little weaker than usual, and your pulse will be a little unstable, but it will not hurt your body.”

"Huan'er, don't worry, I trust Doctor Wen."

Shen Meizhuang firmly comforted Zhen Huan. She knew that this was their only chance to get rid of Fucha, and she would never let this person who was full of malice towards them stay by their side.

Then he stretched out his wrist very nimbly, making it easier for Wen Shichu to give him acupuncture.

After receiving Jinxi's message, the emperor immediately brought Su Peisheng to Suiyuxuan, with unprecedented anger on his face.

There is already a dragon prince missing in the palace, so there must not be any mistakes in Shen Meizhuang's pregnancy this time, otherwise he would confirm the rumors that he has little luck with having children.

"Mei'er, how are you? Is there anything wrong with your body?"

As soon as the emperor stepped into Suiyuxuan, he hurried forward to carefully examine Shen Meizhuang's expression. After seeing the other person's pale face, the worry on his face deepened.

"Hanhuan, what about you? Is there anything wrong?"

"Your Majesty, Sister Mei fortunately didn't have time to drink the medicine. I felt something was wrong with it, so I immediately asked Imperial Physician Wen to examine it. However, Sister Mei was frightened, and Imperial Physician Wen just said her pulse was a little unstable."

Zhen Huan explained to the emperor at this time,

"Your Majesty, fortunately Concubine Wan noticed it in time. She only tasted a little and didn't swallow it after realizing something was wrong. I will prepare some medicine for Concubine Wan to recuperate for a while. However, Concubine Shen was frightened and her pulse is very unstable."

Doctor Wen spoke worriedly about Shen Meizhuang's health problems, and every word he said pierced the emperor's heart.

"Doctor Wen, I want you to protect Mei'er's pregnancy no matter what method you use."

At this time, Shen Meizhuang, who had been arranged to lie on the bed, looked at the emperor weakly.

"Your Majesty, my child will definitely be born safely, right? Please protect my child."

Her pale face and trembling voice all revealed the fear in her heart.

"Mei'er, you will be fine. I'm here. I don't know who dares to hurt you."

"What the hell is going on? How could such a filthy thing appear in the soup? Check it out for me!"

Whether it was for his offspring or for his favorite concubine, the emperor was extremely angry at this moment.

"Your Majesty, I have brought the person you need."

Nian Shilan's voice came from outside the house.

Following her figure appeared the flower spike in Zhou Ninghai's hand.

"It was this palace maid who delivered a bowl of red date soup to every palace, saying it was on Fucha's orders. Unfortunately, the bowl at Suiyuxuan had some ingredients added to it for some reason."

"Your Majesty, please spare me, Your Majesty, please spare me!!"

"The Queen has arrived!"

Accompanied by Huasui's shouts, the Queen also came to Suiyuxuan.

"Oh, how did the Queen find time to come to the Broken Jade Pavilion today? Isn't it usually the most reluctant to set foot here?"

Nian Shilan, as usual, mocked the queen.

The queen did not take her words to heart and bowed to the emperor with a worried look on her face.

"I heard something happened at Suiyuxuan, so I rushed over immediately."

"Mr. Shen, is there anything wrong with your body?"

Looking at Chen Meizhuang lying weakly on the bed, the queen sighed secretly in her heart.

What a pity, this fetus is lucky.
