Chapter 123: Sickness



The imperial physician immediately stated that these things had no effect on the fetus.

But the Queen Mother was not in a position to listen at the moment.

She took up her handkerchief and wiped the tears from her eyes, crying to Xiao Shengxing beside her, "It's all the Queen's fault. Why did she let Concubine Shu leave the palace when she was fine? Isn't it better for her to just stay and take care of the baby?"

When he said this, he seemed to have completely forgotten who was the one who had been pestering him and insisting on following him.

Seeing that more and more dirty water was being thrown, Su Lijin simply squeezed to the front with red eyes.

She looked with heartache at someone lying on the bed, her belly already swelling with the baby's growth. Tears welled up in her eyes as everyone stared at her. "It is indeed my fault. Since this is the case, all the palace residents must fast and pray for the child in Concubine Shu's belly. No meat or fish is allowed. If anyone is caught, they will be severely punished."

Not only did he not open his mouth to defend himself, he also directly admitted it. The Queen Mother froze in place. She never expected Su Lijin to say that.

What was even more unexpected was that she would order everyone in the palace to eat vegetarian food.

Now everyone looked at Concubine Shu with a strange look in their eyes.

Since they can survive in the harem, they must have some brains.

She would not assume that it was the Queen who brought Concubine Shu out just because of the Queen Mother's one-sided statement. The latter was pregnant with the dragon heir and was highly valued. Even as the mistress of the harem, she could not do it without that person's approval.

The person inside obviously realized this, and even the sound of crying out in pain stopped abruptly.

Su Lijin disagreed and looked at the empress dowager with a smile.

"I will go to the Buddha and copy all the scriptures and place them next to Concubine Shu's pillow as a token of my appreciation."

I didn't let them take any advantage.

The person standing opposite wanted to say something, but Xiao Shengxing had already spoken and nodded with satisfaction, agreeing very much with Su Lijin's approach.

"That's great. Let's do as the Queen says."

This one sentence dispelled the Queen Mother's plan. She did not ignore the scrutiny of the person opposite her, and showed worry on her face, pretending to be worried about the child.

Little did he know that Su Lijin had clenched her hands and felt uncomfortable.

Does he care so much about the child conceived by Concubine Shu?

Just now, she was accused by the Queen Mother and she didn't say a word, but she nodded at this moment. Even if it helped her, Su Lijin would rather it didn't happen.

He almost bit his own teeth to pieces.

She looked at Xiao Shengxing with complicated eyes, feeling depressed and bitter in her heart, and did not speak again.

Not long after returning to her own palace, news suddenly came from Yiku Palace that Concubine Shu was suffering from severe morning sickness.

After all, she is now the pregnant queen in the palace, and her status is very noble. No one dares to treat her with respect.

Therefore, almost all the imperial doctors in the palace went to Yiku Palace as soon as they heard the news.

"Is Concubine Shu unwell?" The Empress Dowager was also very nervous after receiving the news.

She stood up subconsciously and walked out.

"No, I have to go and take a look. If something really happens, my grandson must not be in any harm!"

A large number of people soon arrived at the Yikun Palace.

But the only one missing was Xiao Shengxing.

It was as if he hadn't received any news.

But in fact, the main reason why Wei Shu did this was to let Xiao Shengxing know.

What a pity...

The reason why Su Lijin didn't come was not because she didn't want to. After all, she was the Empress of the Central Palace, and it would be against the rules if she didn't show up.

But at this time, Su Lijin was lying on the bed in Kunning Palace, her whole body was hot and her consciousness was blurred.

When Xianxian saw that Su Lijin looked unhappy, she reached out and touched her forehead.

"My Queen! My Queen, are you okay?"

Her expression changed drastically, and Xianxian subconsciously trembled. After she came to her senses, she grabbed her skirt and turned around and ran out in a hurry.

He must have caught a cold. It's still time to call the doctor.

Su Lijin, who was in a daze, actually heard Xianxian's call, but now she had no strength to respond.

I just closed my eyes and endured the pain.

Xianxian went to the Imperial Hospital in confusion, but found that all the doctors were not there.

After asking around, I found out that all the imperial doctors had gone to the Yiku Palace.

With disappointment in her eyes, Xianxian finally returned to Kunning Palace with her head down, to Su Lijin's bedside.

"My Lady, it's my fault that I'm useless and can't summon the imperial physician!"

She was muttering to herself but was mostly blaming herself.

Su Lijin gritted her teeth. She knew that if Wei Shu had spoken, the imperial doctors would have gone over without any hesitation.

But I really didn't expect it to be such a coincidence.

Catch up on the same day.

If I insist on calling the imperial physician now, I will be responsible for anything that happens.

It's also troublesome.

Forget it, just hold on and it will be fine.

After making up her mind, Su Lijin stopped thinking about other things and just lay in bed, slowly fighting the pain.

She didn't know how much time had passed, but her slightly clear consciousness gradually became blurred.

The whole person was hot and cold, and even fell into coma for a moment.

When she was half conscious, she felt a very warm hand placed on her forehead.

Then someone else put the towel on his head and wiped his arms with the wet towel.

Is it Xianxian?

He subconsciously thought of her. After all, before he fell into a coma, Xianxian was the only one guarding him.

Xiao Shengxing looked at Su Lijin, whose face was pale in front of him, and a look of heartache unconsciously appeared in his eyes.

The news that the queen was seriously ill soon reached Wei Shu's ears.

She frowned and looked hesitantly at the imperial doctors surrounding her.

Then, as if he had thought of something, he stood up and asked someone to prepare the sedan chair.

She wanted to go to Kunning Palace in person.

When I opened my eyes again, it was already the next morning.

Su Lijin felt that the soreness in her body had indeed improved a lot, and even the fever had dissipated a lot.

Xianxian was still busy at this time. Su Lijin saw this and said with a smile: "Xianxian, if you are tired, take a rest first, don't worry."

"And I still want to thank you for what happened yesterday. I..."

Xianxian looked at Su Lijin in confusion, but before she could say anything, the eunuch's voice came from outside.

"Your servant pays homage to Her Majesty the Concubine Shu."

A look of doubt appeared in her eyes, and Su Lijin couldn't help but raise her eyebrows slightly.

What does it mean that Wei Shu suddenly came to see me?

Before I could figure it out, the latter had already walked in.

"Empress." She bowed slightly, but also with a smug look in her eyes, relying on her belly.

"Get up, what is the matter with Concubine Shu coming to my palace all of a sudden?"

Su Lijin always likes to speak directly to the point.

What's more, Wei Shu never comes to visit someone unless he has something important to do.

Su Lijin also knew it clearly.

Wei Shu first looked at Su Lijin's expression before speaking.
