Mingyue felt as if a pair of big hands were firmly grasping her internal organs. She covered her stomach and her face turned pale with pain.
Suddenly, she felt a warm current coming from under her body.
She looked panicked and tremblingly said to Ji Chenan beside her: "Your Majesty, I seem to be bleeding from my lower body..."
Ji Chen pretended to look serious and asked Eunuch Lin to summon the imperial physician.
For a moment, the hearts of the court officials below were in turmoil.
It was just announced that the Imperial Concubine was pregnant, so there wouldn't be any problems...
Some even secretly laughed at Ji Chenan in their hearts, saying that even if he was the emperor, he was still destined to be childless.
The imperial physician came hurriedly with a medicine box. As soon as he took the patient's pulse, his expression changed drastically.
After repeated confirmation, he carefully whispered in Ji Chenan's ear: "Your Majesty, the Imperial Concubine's pulse is... this is... a sign of miscarriage..."
Ji Chen said with relief, "As expected."
Concubine Yue asked anxiously, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, what's wrong with me..."
Ji Chenan looked at her and shook his head with a sad face.
Mingyue's face paled. What did His Majesty mean by shaking his head? Could it be that her child... was gone?
An official below boldly stepped forward and asked, "Your Majesty, what's this, the Imperial Concubine?"
Ji Chenan shot a sharp glare at the official, frightening him so much that he retreated tremblingly.
Seeing this, Prince Jin knew that the medicine was taking effect, so he stepped forward and asked, "Your Majesty, is the Imperial Concubine unwell?"
The imperial concubine was fine when she came just now, how come something like this happened suddenly?
There was a lot of discussion in the audience.
"Oh? Does King Jin know something?" Ji Chenan narrowed his eyes slightly.
Ji Chenjing bowed and said, "I just saw that the Imperial Concubine's face turned pale and she was holding her stomach. I am worried... that the Imperial Concubine had a miscarriage..."
The words he threw out were like thunder.
Many court officials looked at Ji Chenjing, and there was even admiration in their eyes. He was worthy of being a royal relative, and he said things that they dared not say.
At this time, one person bowed and said, "Your Majesty, if you don't have children, you should consider adopting a child as soon as possible."
The court officials were shocked, as what this person said was even more weighty.
Ji Chenan looked at the person who spoke below, and it was the Imperial Counselor Jiang Ming.
As an old minister who had been in office since the previous emperor was in power, he had always been very bold in his words.
He once advised Ji Chenan to consider adoption as soon as possible. At that time, Ji Chenan also believed that he was destined to have no children, so he seriously considered Jiang Ming's suggestion.
But now it’s different. Not only does he have a child, but the child is about to be born.
But it’s not time to announce it yet.
Ji Chenan lowered his head and thought for a while before saying, "I will carefully consider Lord Jiang's suggestion. If there is still no heir after three months, I will abdicate and let someone more capable take over."
Not only was His Majesty not angry, he even said he would seriously consider Jiang Ming's suggestion! ?
The ministers' jaws dropped in shock.
Judging from Concubine Yue’s condition just now, she most likely had a miscarriage. If a woman wants to get pregnant again after a miscarriage, it will take her half a year to recuperate!
Ji Chenjing could hardly control his expression.
At this moment, he just wanted to laugh out loud. Ji Chenan had really dug a big hole for himself.
Ji Chenjing was also clear about his specific situation.
If his poison was truly cured, he would have summoned a group of women into the palace long ago.
But there was only one Concubine Yue in his harem.
Just as Qin Yao overheard at the time, it was indeed true that only the destined person could bear Ji Chenan's child.
And now, Concubine Yue, who is pregnant with Ji Chenan's child, has been drugged by him.
There was absolutely no way she could get pregnant again in three months.
The smile on Ji Chenjing's lips grew deeper and deeper. In his opinion, the throne was already in his pocket!
Mingyue listened to Ji Chenan's words and felt more and more sad.
What does it mean to abdicate and let others take over?
What would I do if he abdicated?
She was still dreaming of becoming the queen, but the imperial physician seemed to have just said that her child was gone?
She was anxious and heartbroken. Her child was gone, and she was afraid that she would also lose the position she had been promised. She fainted in panic.
The maid beside her panicked, but Ji Chenan acted as if nothing had happened and just said, "Help Concubine Yue back."
The maid could not hear any emotion in His Majesty's voice, as if the child that Concubine Yue had just miscarried was not his own flesh and blood at all.
But he didn't dare to think too much and quickly carried Concubine Yue down.
Ji Chenan really had no feelings for Mingyue at all. He made Mingyue pregnant just to make her a target.
Now, the target was hit, which was exactly what he wanted.
When everyone saw Concubine Yue being carried away, the atmosphere of the palace banquet became strange for a moment.
Originally, everyone gathered here to celebrate Concubine Yue's pregnancy.
Now that something happened to Concubine Yue on this happy day, everyone was on their toes for a moment.
Among the people present, only two people were happy.
One is Ji Chenjing and the other is Qin Zhun.
Qin Zhun also immediately recognized Qin Yao behind Ji Chenjing.
Seeing his daughter become calm and composed under the command of Prince Jin, he couldn't help but turn around and wipe away his tears with relief.
In the past, my daughter suffered a lot because she was too domineering and refused to listen to advice.
Now I finally learned my lesson!
He also guessed that Qin Yao was responsible for Concubine Yue's miscarriage.
If His Majesty fails to re-conceive Concubine Yue within these three months, then the throne will be occupied by His Majesty the Prince of Jin! By then, Qin Yao, who caused Concubine Yue's miscarriage, will be the number one hero! Qin Zhun can also share in the glory!
Qin Zhun almost couldn't suppress the smile when he thought that he could rely on His Royal Highness the Prince of Jin to rise to prominence in the future.
I couldn't help but sigh in my heart that it was a wise decision to choose His Royal Highness the Prince of Jin.
I wonder if he will still feel the same way in three months...
Let's put the hook aside for now. Ji Chenjing will definitely not make any rash moves in the next three months.
After all, if the throne can be transferred peacefully, the reputation of the next emperor will not be too bad.
Ji Chenan didn't believe that Ji Chenjing would easily ruin such a sure-win business.
However, Ji Chenjing will definitely target Mingyue again to ensure that she cannot get pregnant at all.
But this is not something he should worry about. After all, there is a three-month safety buffer period, and his child will be born in two months.
Mingyue is no longer of any use to him, and Ji Chenan doesn't care whether she will continue to be harmed.
When three months are up, we will bring back the real queen, smash the faces of these people, and then send them off together!
