Ever since Bai Yuzhi became pregnant, she had not experienced any symptoms of vomiting or nausea during the period when pregnancy reactions were most likely to occur. But now she is eight months pregnant. Logically speaking, pregnancy reactions that she had not experienced before should not appear suddenly.

So when they saw Bai Yuzhi spit out the tender fish belly meat, the Queen Mother and Emperor Qin Huan did not associate it with pregnancy reaction, but thought that the fish cooked today was not to Bai Yuzhi's liking.

"What's wrong? Is this fish not tasty?"

Emperor Qin Huan patted her back and frowned when he saw Bai Yuzhi clutching her chest with an uncomfortable look on her face. "Go, send someone to call the imperial physician."

The Queen Mother quickly gave her the shrimp crystal dumplings she had requested: "Your Highness, please have some of this. Don't you like it?"

Bai Yuzhi felt that something was vaguely wrong.

She forced a smile and took the shrimp dumplings handed to her by the Queen Mother. As soon as she took a bite, she felt nauseous again.

This time, the problem could not be solved by spitting out the shrimp dumplings. The feeling of nausea was too overwhelming to bear. She hurriedly got up and left the table and went to the back room to vomit.

Emperor Qin Huan hurriedly chased after her and handed her a glass of water.

At this moment, Emperor Qin Huan and the Queen Mother realized that it was not a problem with the fish, but a problem with Bai Yuzhi's own feelings.

The Queen Mother was very puzzled: "Why is she suddenly having morning sickness after eight months? This child is really making me suffer."

Emperor Qin Huan had no idea that morning sickness would be so uncomfortable. Seeing that Bai Yuzhi's originally rosy face had turned a little pale because of this ordeal, Emperor Qin Huan quickly carried her back to bed and let her rest.

"Whatever your Imperial Concubine wants to eat, I will order the Imperial Kitchen to make it again."

It is said that women with morning sickness will not vomit easily if they eat what they want, so Emperor Qin Huan asked this question.

But Bai Yuzhi knew that this was definitely not the so-called morning sickness. Her child was conceived after taking the fertility pill. If she had not done it on purpose, it would be impossible for her to have any adverse reactions.

Moreover, as long as she doesn't eat, she won't feel nauseous at all. This reaction is definitely not a normal reaction during pregnancy.

"I have no appetite. Let's wait for the imperial physician to come and see me."

Bai Yuzhi now suspects that Concubine Rong had given her some drugs without her knowing. That woman even has fake pregnancy drugs, so it is not difficult for her to come up with other ones. But can she really be so powerful that she can plant people in the Zichen Palace?

Ever since she was found to be pregnant, Bai Yuzhi had been living in Zichen Palace for food, clothing, housing and transportation, and the servants were all arranged by Emperor Qin Huan himself. If Rong Fei could find a loophole under such airtight protection, Bai Yuzhi had to be on guard.

When the imperial physician came, all the food on the table was not removed. It was still the same imperial physician Xu, who was responsible for the white jade body.

When Wang Chonghai went to the Imperial Hospital to find him in person, Doctor Xu was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat, fearing that there was something wrong with his fair body. He only breathed a sigh of relief after hearing that it was just sudden morning sickness.

"Greetings to His Majesty, the Empress Dowager, and Concubine Heng."

"Stop talking nonsense and come over to take my pulse."

Placing a handkerchief on Bai Yuzhi's wrist, Doctor Xu carefully felt her pulse. Bai Yuzhi casually reminded her, "I recently drank the pregnancy-maintaining medicine that Doctor Xu prescribed. I was fine before, but now I don't know what's wrong."

After emphasizing the three words "abortion-maintaining medicine", Doctor Xu immediately understood.

After taking her pulse, he replied, "Your Majesty, in my humble opinion, there's nothing wrong with Concubine Heng's health. This is the first time I've seen a woman's reaction to pregnancy until eight months. I wonder if Concubine Heng has consumed anything she hasn't tried before?"

This is the worry that there is something fishy going on.

Emperor Qin Huan and the Empress Dowager immediately thought of the small jar of bayberries. Emperor Qin Huan pointed out, "The Imperial Concubine just used some bayberries. Go and see if there is anything wrong with them."

The Queen Mother was anxious: "This, this I definitely didn't put anything in there that would harm the Imperial Concubine, how could this happen?"

Bai Yuzhi certainly believed that it was not the Queen Mother who did it. The Queen Mother was looking forward to the birth of this child even more than she herself, so how could she do such a thing?

But she did vomit after eating bayberry, which cannot be faked. It is very likely that someone else deceived the Queen Mother and put something in it.

Emperor Qin Huan did not say anything, but just asked Doctor Xu to go and take a look.

Doctor Xu examined it carefully, and after a moment, shook his head under the empress dowager's nervous gaze: "There is nothing in it, just ordinary bayberries that are sweet and sour and appetizing."

It wasn't just the bayberries. Doctor Xu also checked all the items in the hall and the food on the table one by one, and found nothing wrong. He could only guess that Bai Yuzhi was indeed experiencing pregnancy reactions.

"Although this situation is rare, I have heard that some women do experience it. I will prescribe a medicated diet to soothe the spleen and stomach. If Your Majesty can take it, it may provide some relief."

Emperor Qin Huan was upset and waved his hand to let Doctor Xu leave.

There is no doubt that Doctor Xu is an excellent doctor. It was he who diagnosed Concubine Jiang's false pregnancy, so there is a high probability that the things he checked are indeed correct.

Bai Yuzhi seemed to be thinking about something. The problem wasn't with anything else. There was nothing wrong with the food or the accessories, so it could only be someone playing tricks.

Of course, she couldn't say this to Emperor Qin Huan. After all, she had no way to explain to Emperor Qin Huan why she was so sure that she had no pregnancy reactions, so she could only eat the medicinal food prescribed by Doctor Xu.

But the medicinal food was fine when it was brought to her. But as soon as she took a sip, Bai Yuzhi couldn't help but spit it out again. After repeating this several times, even an iron man would feel uncomfortable. She leaned on the bed, and no matter how Emperor Qin Huan and the Queen Mother coaxed her, she couldn't eat another bite.

“Bang!”

The jade bowl in Emperor Qin Huan's hand was thrown hard to the ground, and the untouched medicinal food inside mixed with the jade bowl fragments splattered everywhere. Jin Tai and Yin Ting cleaned up the ground with trembling hands, holding their breath. No one in the hall dared to make a sound.

In fact, ever since Bai Yuzhi became pregnant, Emperor Qin Huan's temper has improved at a speed visible to the naked eye. At least he hasn't killed anyone recently. If he encounters something that doesn't go his way, he just punishes them with a few boards. In short, he tries to avoid bloodshed if possible.

After just a few months, the palace people had become accustomed to such a "benevolent" Emperor Qin Huan. However, it was not until Concubine Heng could not eat that they realized that his temper had not improved. It was because this evil dragon had been tied up by his wife and children that he stopped getting angry. Now, when Concubine Heng felt uncomfortable, he became that moody tyrant again.
