Chapter 193 The Miscarriage

"I don't know who is so rude. They really don't know their place. Your Majesty, please don't be angry. It's not worth it to do this during the New Year!"

Unexpectedly, a palace maid soon stumbled in: "Empress Chen, it's Empress Chen——"

Before the palace maid finished speaking, Emperor Yuan Yong's face changed drastically and he stood up and ran out. Dong Zhi hurriedly followed.

The Queen, who was about to say something, was stunned and speechless for a moment. When she came to her senses, she was embarrassed and blushed.

I felt extremely angry.

Even if something really happened to Concubine Chen, so what? The Emperor is the Son of Heaven, the ruler of a country. How can he behave so unbecomingly? Even she, the Empress, feels ashamed...

The Queen was worthy of being the Queen. She had cultivated herself to a high level of self-cultivation. A moment of embarrassment could not bring her down. Maintaining a dignified and graceful smile, the Queen Mother asked, "Your Majesty, why don't we go out and take a look?"

The screams and noise outside, the palace maids calling out "Empress Chen", and the emperor running out with a pale face, everyone in the hall, whether they heard or saw it or not, knew that something must have happened. However, since they were in the palace after all, they didn't dare to act rashly, otherwise they would have rushed out to watch the fun.

The empress dowager glanced at them indifferently, and a gleam of her eye concealed the sarcasm in her eyes. "Your Majesty, you are a man of deep affection and loyalty, huh!"

"Then let's all go out and take a look!"

"Yes, Queen Mother!"

The Queen personally supported the Queen Mother, and the concubines and royal relatives followed behind. As a large group of people surrounded them and they just walked out of the door, they saw the Emperor coming in with a woman in his arms, his face ashen.

Everyone was shocked!

"Empress Chen!"

"What happened to the Empress Chen?!"

"Oh! Oh my God!"

“…”

Emperor Yuan Yong carefully placed Xu Lanshan on the soft couch behind the partition in the right side hall and sat beside her with a gloomy face. "Has Imperial Physician Tang not arrived yet? Go and urge him! Hurry!"

Xu Lanshan's face looked a little bad, and she seemed a little panic-stricken. She lay on the couch, looking pitiful.

But she still had the strength to speak.

Xu Lanshan gently shook Emperor Yuan Yong's hand and said softly, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, don't worry. I... I have your protection, nothing will happen..."

Emperor Yuan Yong looked at her, not knowing what to do. At this moment, she still had the mind to tell such jokes!

If his protection was really so effective, she wouldn't be so unlucky.

However, seeing that Xu Lanshan still had the strength to speak, and that although her eyes were red, she didn't cry, Emperor Yuan Yong felt a little relieved. "Rest well, and don't worry about anything else."

"Um......"

Emperor Yuan Yong finally regained some of his sanity and looked at the empress: "Let's end the banquet and send everyone away. Mother, go back and rest."

The queen took the order and left.

She didn't dare to ask more questions, let alone say more.

The guests had already heard that the two teams of palace maids who were delivering fruit plates and snacks accidentally pushed and trampled each other, resulting in innocent people being harmed and accidentally causing Empress Chenfei to fall down the stairs.

Everyone looked at the long staircase and their scalps tingled.

Empress Chenfei is less than three months pregnant, which is the most vulnerable time. For such a beautiful and delicate woman to fall from such a high step, even if she doesn't hit the bottom, it would be very dangerous. It is hard to say whether the baby in her belly can be saved.

At this time, no one dared to speak, let alone ask any questions. If anyone dared to speak nonsense or ask any questions, it would be strange if the emperor would forgive them.

The emperor must be in a terrible mood right now.

I never thought that something like this would happen at this year's New Year's Eve palace banquet...

The guests left quickly, and the two teams of palace maids who had caused trouble knelt on the ground trembling in the corridor, but no one paid any attention to them.

The queen glanced at them but didn't say anything.

In the palace, Imperial Physician Tang had already arrived. After examining Xu Lanshan, he hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, Empress Dowager, and Consort Chen, Consort Chen has had a miscarriage. I'm afraid it will be difficult for her to move for the next two days. After she takes the medicine to stabilize the pregnancy and rest well for a few days, she can be moved back to Lianyi Palace."

Emperor Yuan Yong's heart tightened: "Are Concubine Chen and the child okay?"

"This - Your Majesty, it should be fine now, as long as tonight, tonight..."

As long as I can get through tonight peacefully, I'll be fine. Otherwise...

Xu Lanshan's tears fell one by one, and she tightly grasped Emperor Yuan Yong's hand: "Your Majesty! Your Majesty! You must save our child, you must save our child! Your Majesty!"

She was stunned and a little dizzy from the pain, so she didn't react at first.

Otherwise, she would have started screaming and crying out loudly the first moment, in short, the most miserable, horrible and pitiful way possible!

The crying child gets candy. Why didn't she cry when she was so frightened and hurt?

It’s a pity that I didn’t react in time. When I came to my senses and started crying, it was too late and it would have seemed too abrupt.

Xu Lanshan knew in her heart that her physique had been transformed by the palace fighting system and her foundation was very good. She thought she had a little miscarriage, but the system reassured her and guaranteed that it was fine, so she was completely relieved.

Don't worry, of course I have to play the victim to get some benefits!

Because she knew better than anyone that this was not an accident, it was murder.

Although she still doesn't know who the murderer is, it is certain that someone is deliberately trying to harm her.

The Empress? The Consort? Or someone else? Any of them are possible.

Since she can't find the real culprit, shouldn't she ask for some other benefits?

Seeing this, Emperor Yuan Yong was both angry and distressed. He didn't care about anything else and held her in his arms and comforted her again and again: "Don't cry, don't cry, Lan'er, you must be obedient. You can't be sad now, otherwise it will be worse for the baby in your belly. Don't worry, the child will be fine. I will accompany you tonight..."

The Queen's face doesn't look good. The Emperor should accompany her tonight.

But how could she say anything jealous at this moment?

Xu Lanshan gradually stopped crying and sobbed, "With the emperor's words, I feel relieved. I believe in the emperor and Doctor Tang..."

"Well, okay..."

After a while, after taking the pregnancy-maintaining medicine, Xu Lanshan felt sleepy and frightened. She fell asleep quickly due to fatigue.

Before falling asleep, Xu Lanshan sighed secretly, thinking that being a favorite concubine was really not an easy job.

In fact, she did not blame Emperor Yuan Yong. It is easy to avoid an open attack but difficult to guard against an arrow from the dark. No matter how powerful Emperor Yuan Yong was, how could he control everyone in the palace?

She was favored and pregnant, which blocked the way for countless people. There were so many people who wanted to deal with her, both openly and covertly! How could Emperor Yuan Yong possibly prevent them?
