The reason for her pride was that the queen's child was destined to be lost.

When Concubine Xu thought of this, the corners of her mouth slowly rose, and her smile was filled with malice and ferocity.

Beauty Shen pursed her lips tightly. She always had a bad premonition, as if something was taken away from her.

I feel inexplicably lost.

Inside the hall.

As soon as Xiao Yan entered, he saw basins of blood pouring out continuously. The room was filled with a bloody smell, which was extremely horrifying.

When his eyes fell on the woman on the bed, Ning Yu's face was pale, his lips were pale, and beads of sweat were oozing from his clean forehead. He looked like a crabapple flower that had been knocked down by rain, weak and powerless.

Xiao Yan felt as if his heart was being pulled up by the scene before him, and a trace of regret suddenly arose in his heart.

Gone in the blink of an eye.

"How are the queen and the child?" The emperor frowned slightly, looking extremely ugly.

The imperial physician wiped the sweat from his face, plopped down on the ground, and not daring to look up at the emperor, he said tremblingly, "I am incompetent. I am afraid that the dragon heir cannot be saved. If it is a step later, I am afraid that the queen will also..."

The emperor's aura instantly turned cold, his face frosty and filled with anger, "I command you to protect the queen, otherwise you will be beheaded!"

The imperial physician held on and gave acupuncture to the empress. After an unknown amount of time, Ning Yu finally woke up.

The imperial physician felt relieved.

"Queen, you are finally awake. Are you still feeling unwell?" When the emperor saw Ning Yu wake up, he hurriedly held her soft hands, his eyes full of tenderness and worry.

Ning Yu seemed not to hear anything, staring blankly at the falling gauze curtain, and only spoke softly after a long while.

"Is the child gone?"

The emperor looked at the queen like a lifeless puppet, unable to laugh or cry. He subconsciously clenched Ning Yu's hand and uttered with difficulty, "It's okay. We can have another child if we lose him."

Ning Yu was overwhelmed with grief when she heard this. Her eyes welled up with tears. She threw herself into the emperor's arms, her voice choking with sobs. "Your Majesty, I don't believe it. I finally got pregnant, why did this happen? I just wanted a child, why did God treat me like this..."

Ning Yu spoke incoherently, and tears as big as beans rolled down her cheeks, hitting the back of the emperor's hand, burning it terribly.

The emperor was stunned for a moment, and a trace of regret and pity flashed in his deep eyes.

The emperor raised his hand and gently patted Ning Yu's back, again and again, very gently, "It's okay, I promise you, we will have children again."

Ning Yu just thought that the emperor was comforting her.

The imperial physician bowed and said, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, I have one thing I haven't told you yet. Logically speaking, although Your Majesty is pregnant with the heir, you are in good health and generally speaking, you wouldn't suddenly miscarry..."

Ning Yu suddenly raised her head, her expression filled with sorrow and pain, and clutched the emperor's robe tightly. "Your Majesty, someone must be trying to harm my child! Please, Your Majesty, help me!"

The emperor nodded slowly, a sharp gleam in his eyes.

After the emperor had comforted the empress, he looked at the imperial physician again with a stern expression, "Did you see anything?"

The imperial physician lifted his robe and knelt down. "The Empress's miscarriage is likely due to stimulation. May I ask, Your Majesty, if I may allow you to examine her in the palace?"

Xiao Yan raised his hand, "I agree."

Not long after, the experienced imperial physician quickly noticed an exquisite incense burner placed in the hall, with white smoke curling up and emitting a sweet and clear scent.

The imperial physician had the incense burner extinguished, slowly picked up a little white ash, and smelled it at the tip of his nose.

Soon, confident in his plan, he walked before the Emperor and Empress and reported, "Your Majesty, it was this incense that caused the Empress's miscarriage. This incense contains safflower and cinnabar. If a pregnant woman takes these two, it will definitely cause miscarriage or even death. However, if they are placed in incense sticks, the effect will be weaker and less noticeable..."

Li Xiang knelt down, her tone full of self-blame, "It's all my fault. If I hadn't found out, Your Majesty wouldn't have been implicated."

Ning Yu sighed softly, "This has nothing to do with you. Get up. We can't just throw away all the things sent by the Ministry of Internal Affairs. It's all my fault for not protecting the good child..."

Thinking of this, Ning Yu couldn't help but feel uncomfortable. With tears in her eyes, she looked up at the emperor and said, "Your Majesty, I beg you to avenge this child, my prince..."

Xiao Yan's eyes were full of pity, "Don't worry, I will definitely catch the murderer for you."

Lixiang suddenly said, "Your Majesty, the incense sticks and other items were sent by the Imperial Household Department, which is managed by the Imperial Concubine..."

Xiao Yan nodded and immediately asked Eunuch Fu to summon him.

Concubine Xu stood outside the door the whole time and did not leave.

It was not until she heard the faint sobbing of the queen that she finally understood that the queen's child was gone!

She couldn't suppress the ecstasy in her heart; her plan was finally successful.

But the next second, Eunuch Fu came out with a serious look, "Your Highness, His Majesty invites you."

Concubine Xu's eyelids couldn't help but twitch, but she quickly calmed down and walked in with a charming smile.

Seeing Ning Yu leaning weakly on Xiao Yan, the emperor lowered his eyelids, his face full of tenderness, and held the queen's hand tightly with his big hand, intimately, and kept whispering something.

The scene before her ignited the fire of jealousy in Concubine Xu's heart. She stared at Ning Yu hatefully until the emperor's cold voice rang in her ears.

"My Lady, are you still not going to salute?"

Concubine Xu clenched her fists, her heart filled with resentment and resentment. She had no choice but to bow to the Emperor and Empress, "Your Majesty, and Your Majesty."
