Sheng Xiyan said with a proud smile:

"I can't help it. My husband is very strict. The emperor won't let me eat or drink other people's food or drinks outside. Isn't that infuriating? I am under the strict control of my husband."

There was a sigh at the scene. The emperor favors you alone, so whatever you say is fine.

A clear laugh was heard. The person who came was Princess Xueqiong. She was dressed in an exotic dress and golden bells tinkled on her ankles as she walked.

"Xue Qiong pays respects to Her Majesty the Queen, may you be blessed with good health and happiness."

"Princess, there's no need to be so polite. You'll be entering the harem soon, and today is a good opportunity for you to meet all the sisters. Please meet the Imperial Concubine first."

Xue Qiong turned her head and saw Sheng Xiyan. Their eyes met, sparking a cloud of smoke, and then they both smiled politely.

"Sister Imperial Concubine, your snow fox cloak is so beautiful. Does it even have a little hood?"

Xue Qiong walked up to Sheng Xiyan and stroked her snow fox cloak, looking like a cute little sister, just like Sheng Xitang would do at home.

Sheng Xiyan discovered that she had been pregnant in the Yangxin Palace and had become stupid, unable to tell whether the women in front of her were human or ghosts?

"Sister Guifei's hands are also beautiful."

Xue Qiong stroked Sheng Xiyan's hand. Her face was a little round, very cute and bright.

Everyone was talking and laughing, the atmosphere was very harmonious, and the plum blossoms were embellishing the place, like a picture of beauties in the harem.

At some point, a red-eyed mastiff suddenly rushed out from the west corner gate, its fangs exposed and saliva dripping from its mouth, and pounced towards the crowd aggressively.

The palace maids panicked and shouted, "Quick, protect the Queen!"

Mingyue stood in front of Sheng Xiyan and opened her arms to protect her: "Protect the Royal Concubine!"

Sheng Xiyan hugged her bulging belly tightly, her face pale and trembling.

She felt that the baby in her belly seemed to be startled by the sudden danger and was moving violently.

The Tibetan Mastiff rushed straight towards Sheng Xiyan's abdomen. Mingyue tried her best to block it, but was knocked back by the momentum of the mastiff.

Just as the mastiff was about to pounce on Sheng Xiyan, Xue Qiong pulled out a dagger from her long skirt and quickly stabbed the mastiff.

The mastiff dodged nimbly and rushed towards the other side of Sheng Xiyan.

The palace servants frantically fetched sticks and tried to drive away the mastiff.

Xue Qiong was not afraid at all. She stabbed the mastiff again with a dagger in hand.

In the chaos, only a cry of "Ah!" was heard.

Mingyue and another palace maid protected Sheng Xiyan and retreated to avoid the attack, but accidentally pushed her onto the stone steps next to her.

Sheng Xiyan felt severe abdominal pain, and light pink bloodstains oozed out from under the snow fox cloak.

"Empress! Empress!" Mingyue screamed in fright.

Xue Qiong stabbed the mastiff several times and finally forced it to retreat. The palace servants took the opportunity to beat the mastiff to death with sticks.

Gao Guirong and Lin Jieyu ran over and shouted anxiously, "Sister Sheng!"

Qingdai helped Empress Duan to stand up. Empress Duan frowned and asked, "Is the Imperial Concubine okay?"

Mingyue cried, "The imperial concubine fainted and is bleeding!"

Empress Duan feigned concern and ordered, "Quick, go call the imperial physician to come and see the imperial concubine!"

Xue Qiong squatted down and said: "Let me see the concubine, I know a little about medicine."

She put her hand on Sheng Xiyan's wrist, but her nails quietly scratched the Shenmen acupoint on her wrist.

Pretending to be panicked, "Oh no! The imperial concubine is in danger!"

She took out a pill and pretended to feed it to Sheng Xiyan.

Mingyue immediately blocked her way: "Princess, you can't give the imperial concubine random food!"

Xue Qiong said anxiously: "The imperial concubine is in danger. This pill is my Wusun secret medicine. It can keep her and Long Si safe!"

Empress Duan said coldly: "Mingyue, don't be mean-spirited. If the imperial concubine is really in trouble and delays treatment, the emperor will not forgive your duty of serving."

Gao Guirong said firmly, "Let's wait for the imperial physician to come. Don't take random medicines."

Xue Qiong frowned impatiently: "You people from the Central Plains are so nagging. If anything goes wrong, I'll take the blame!"

She tried to forcefully feed her the medicine, but Mingyue stopped her firmly: "Forgive me, I cannot move aside. The Emperor has instructed the Imperial Concubine not to eat anything given to her by anyone!"

Because she was the emperor's aunt, Empress Duan always had to give her some face, and the other concubines did not dare to persuade her anymore.

Suddenly, there was a noise in the distance, and Emperor Xuanwu was seen running towards them, followed by a group of attendants.

"The emperor is here! The emperor is here!" The palace servants all made way.

Xuan Ling rushed to Sheng Xiyan and saw her curled up on the ground, her face pale and blood oozing from under her cloak. His heart was in his throat.

The voice trembled: "Yan Yan!"

He carefully picked up Sheng Xiyan, and Mingyue opened her cloak: "Your Majesty, the Queen is having a miscarriage. It is my fault that I failed to protect the Imperial Concubine."

Xue Qiong knelt down and said, "It was your fault that I failed to protect the imperial concubine!"

Xuan Ling saw her holding a dagger. Without asking why, he stared at her with his scarlet eyes and grabbed her neck. "If anything happens to the concubine, I will slaughter the entire Wusun royal family!"

Xue Qiong said in horror: "Your Majesty..."

The concubines knelt on the ground: "Your Majesty, calm down!"

Xuan Ling was furious and said fiercely, "If anything happens to the imperial concubine, I will bury you all with me!"

At this time, the imperial physician hurried over.

Judge Wu knelt down to feel the imperial concubine's pulse, and after a moment he breathed a sigh of relief: "The dragon fetus is fine! Thanks to someone who sealed the imperial concubine's acupuncture points in time, the dragon fetus is safe."

Xuan Ling asked anxiously, "Where's the imperial concubine? She's bleeding, is she okay?"

"Your Majesty, rest assured. Although the Imperial Concubine has had a miscarriage, she is in good health. As long as she takes good care of the pregnancy, there will be no danger."

Empress Duan quickly said, "Your Majesty, it was Princess Xueqiong who saved the Imperial Concubine. She risked her life to protect her. It was truly touching."

Xuan Ling realized that he had wronged Xue Qiong and said coldly, "Give Xue Qiong a hu of East China Sea pearls."

Xue Qiong wept and said aggrievedly, "Your Majesty, I do not blame you. I only hope that the Imperial Concubine and the heir are safe. I am willing to die for you."
