When she stepped into the Queen Mother's palace, she was dozing with her eyes closed in the yard.
After the serving nanny whispered something in her ear, she raised her eyelids and said slowly, "I heard that the queen has been very busy recently."
Jiang Ziyi thought to herself that something was wrong and bowed slightly.
With a smile on his face, he replied, "I saw Princess Lin in the palace a few days ago, and I thought of going out with her to take a walk outside the palace and get some fresh air."
"Then why did Princess Han come to the palace to see you?"
There was no emotion in the Queen Mother's tone.
But Jiang Ziyi knew that the Queen Mother called her in for questioning because she suspected her.
"Princess Han entered the palace because of the matter of Lady Lin. Lady Lin had previously wanted to marry a man who sold cosmetics at the market, but she refused to listen to repeated advice, so she asked me to help persuade her."
"Well, I have heard of what you said."
When Jiang Ziyi heard the Queen Mother's words, her heart tightened.
Even matters outside the palace could not escape the empress dowager's eyes.
Then, the Queen Mother said in a deep voice, "When you poisoned Concubine Liang earlier, I saw that you didn't cause any trouble, so I didn't say anything more."
"But now, you are hiding the matter of winning over the King of Han from me?" At this point, one could already hear the hidden anger in his words.
Jiang Ziyi couldn't help but sweat a few drops on his forehead, "I dare not, I haven't thought too much about this matter."
"You know how much you've thought about it." The Queen Mother snorted coldly.
"Don't think that I am old and useless."
"If you have any second thoughts, I can always find someone to replace you!"
After hearing a few words from the Queen Mother, Jiang Ziyi was already sweating profusely. It wasn't because she was afraid of something, but she had never expected that in this world, the relationship between her and the Queen Mother would be so utilitarian and without any emotion at all.
She bowed and replied, "I dare not."
Sometimes, it is necessary to admit defeat.
If she didn't admit her mistake now, it would increase the Queen Mother's suspicion. She estimated that the Queen Mother would deal with her before she could leave the palace.
Seeing that her attitude was still respectful, the Queen Mother softened her stance.
"Go back. If there is any news from the Han Wang family, remember to tell me as soon as possible."
"yes."
After saying that, Jiang Ziyi withdrew.
When she walked out of the Empress Dowager's Xiangning Palace, her legs felt a little weak.
This palace is really surrounded by enemies. Not only does the emperor dislike her, but the empress dowager doesn't like her much either.
Fortunately, it will be soon and her plan can be implemented soon.
At that time, you won’t have to look at anyone’s face anymore!
Maybe he had a falling out with Rong Jingyuan before, so he didn't come to see her again in the following days.
But Jiang Ziyi didn't care at all. It was just right that he didn't come. She was happy to have some free time!
One morning a month later, Bitao and Jiang Ziyi had just served a bowl of porridge to them. Jiang Ziyi had just scooped a spoonful to her mouth when she couldn't help vomiting.
She was too familiar with this feeling. She had occasionally felt nauseous in her previous world, but it was never this severe.
She mentally tapped the system.
Is this fake pregnancy powder even as effective as morning sickness? Is it really necessary?
System: [We have received your feedback. I will definitely report this to our R&D staff.]
Jiang Ziyi: ...
She slowed down, picked up the spoon again and prepared to drink the porridge, planning to wait until she finished breakfast before asking Bitao to call the imperial physician.
Bitao's mouth opened into an O shape.
"Mother, mother, mother, mother..."
"You, you, you..."
"Could it be..."
"Shh!"
Seeing Jiang Ziyi's gesture, Bitao quickly covered her mouth.
She saw the Empress calmly drink a bowl of porridge, then she clutched her stomach with a look of pain and said to her, "Bi Tao, there seems to be something wrong with this morning's porridge. I have some abdominal pain. Please call the imperial physician for me."
Bi Tao finally received the order and did not dare to delay any longer. She rushed to the Imperial Hospital to ask for the imperial physician.
When the old doctor was hurriedly rushing over with the medicine box, Rong Jingyuan in Mingfei Palace also received the news that the doctor was summoned from Qifeng Palace.
Ming Fei saw Rong Jingyuan, who was chatting and laughing with her, suddenly froze in expression.
Then, seemingly casually, he asked, "Did the Queen's maid tell us why the imperial physician was summoned?"
"According to Bi Tao, who was beside the Empress, the Empress had severe abdominal pain after eating porridge this morning, so she summoned the imperial physician."
Ming Fei couldn't understand the dark emotions in Rong Jingyuan's eyes.
She pursed her lips and pretended to be understanding and said, "Your Majesty, would you like to go and see the Empress?"
Rong Jingyuan: "Let's talk about it later."
This answer deeply hurt Ming Fei's heart. His Majesty had clearly said last time that he had fallen out with the Queen, so why was he still putting on a show?
Could it be that His Majesty really fell in love with the Queen?
She has been accompanying His Majesty without any competition for eight or nine years. She thought that she had finally endured it last time, but she didn't expect that she would still have to wait!
She also received letters from home asking her when she would be able to conceive an heir to the throne.
This put a lot of pressure on her.
In order to prevent the Jiang family from taking action against her, His Majesty had to avoid her on a daily basis and rarely came to her palace to spend the night.
Last month, the Queen Mother wanted to cause trouble for her, and in order to protect her, His Majesty had to confine her to house arrest for a month to avoid the Queen Mother's summons.
During this month, although His Majesty would visit her occasionally, he would not stay overnight.
She had no chance at all to sleep with His Majesty!
Whenever she thought of this, her resentment towards the Jiang family and the Queen deepened.
