After Xu Chen'an finished speaking, he looked straight at Situ Yao, but when he saw that Situ Yao didn't say a word and didn't even look at him, he could only bow to Situ Yao and leave.
Yes, he was wrong about this matter. Even if the child in Lin Xiaoxiang's belly was not Situ Yao's, which man would be willing to let others know that his woman was cheating on him?
So I just need to mention this sentence, and there is no need for Situ Yao to express anything to me.
After Xu Chen'an left, Situ Yao thought about his words carefully, then called the eunuch in charge of the signboards and asked him to get the roster for his usual sleeping hours.
After he looked up and found out when he had asked Lin Xiaoxiang to sleep with him, he summoned Xu Chen'an again.
Situ Yao threw the booklet in front of Xu Chen'an and asked him to calculate whether the time when Lin Xiaoxiang's baby was born and when he went there would match the time when she was in the palace.
There was no expression on Xu Chen'an's face. He just resigned himself to opening the booklet and looking for Lin Xiaoxiang's name and the date behind him. After careful calculation, he found that the child was indeed not Situ Yao's.
"Your Majesty, you went to sleep in Lin Da Ying's palace more than two months ago, but the baby in Lin Da Ying's belly has been more than three months old. This shows that the child is not yours. However, this is just my speculation based on taking her pulse and cannot be used as evidence." Xu Chen'an said.
Although he was very confident in his medical skills, he also knew that everything in this world required evidence.
He diagnosed the child at the wrong time, but that wasn't evidence.
At this time, he told Situ Yao about this matter just to see what Situ Yao was planning.
After Xu Chen'an told this, Situ Yao fell silent again. He had been prepared in his heart since he saw the date when Lin Xiaoxiang would sleep with him. So when he heard Xu Chen'an tell her that the child was not his, he was not surprised, but felt relieved instead.
But when Xu Chen'an asked himself what he was going to do about this matter, Situ Yao was still a little hesitant.
To be honest, he really didn't like being cuckolded, but he also knew the influence of the prime minister in the court.
No one would believe him even if he said something without evidence, and it would also give the prime minister an excuse.
Therefore, in order to appease the prime minister and temporarily ensure the stability of the court, Situ Yao had no choice but to conceal this matter.
"Let's leave this matter at this level for now and let nature take its course." Situ Yao said, but his brows were still furrowed, as if some problem was lingering in his mind.
Seeing him understand what he was thinking, Xu Chen'an said directly, "Your Majesty, please rest assured. After the child is born, we will do a blood test to find out whether this child is your biological child or not."
Lin Xiaoxiang's belly was more than three months old and had settled down at this time, so even though she made a fuss in Li Emi's palace for a while, it did not cause any damage to her belly, but she just looked a little weak.
"Hey, what do you think, is the baby in the master's belly a boy or a girl? If it's a boy, the master will be furious. She finally gave birth to a son but has to give the child to someone else to raise." At this time, several palace maids gathered outside Lin Xiaoxiang's palace gate, talking.
They all knew that their master had suffered this time and would not get out of bed easily, so they were so unscrupulous and dared to talk about it at the palace gate.
"Hey, what are you talking about? I think there's a high probability that she's pregnant with a girl," said another palace maid.
Hearing her say this, the others gathered around and asked, "How do you know the baby in your belly hasn't been born yet? Are you so sure it's a girl?"
The maid saw the others surrounding her and said proudly, "You don't know this. As the saying goes, sour boys make spicy girls. Ever since I became pregnant, my mistress has really enjoyed spicy food."
"Of course we have heard such things, but some people also say that the sour boy and spicy girl saying is not true at all." Another person sneered when he heard that the palace maid was sure that Lin Xiaoxiang was pregnant with a daughter just because of the taste.
The maid felt her authority was being challenged, so she gave the maid a cold look and said, "This is just one of the reasons. The master's belly is starting to show a little bit. Look at the pointy belly. It must be a girl."
While these people were discussing intensely, they suddenly heard a question: "Are you so sure that this lady is pregnant with a girl?"
Lin Xiaoxiang was originally resting in the palace, but when she heard the noise outside, she wanted to go out and take a look. Unexpectedly, as soon as she went out, she saw these people gathered together, and they said that she must be pregnant with a daughter. In an instant, anger spread in her heart.
She finally got pregnant, how could it be a daughter? Lin Xiaoxiang didn't want to have a daughter in her belly at all, so she didn't want to believe it and wouldn't believe it.
The palace maids were startled by the question, but they immediately came to their senses and found that the person asking the question was Lin Xiaoxiang.
"Your Majesty, please forgive me." For a moment, the palace maids were in chaos. They all knelt on the ground with their heads lowered, not daring to let Lin Xiaoxiang see them.
"Weren't you talking with great interest just now? Why did you stop when I came?" Lin Xiaoxiang had been demoted and had a miscarriage. Now she was even more angry when she heard what these palace maids said.
The palace maids did not dare to defend themselves. They just knelt on the ground, kowtowed their heads loudly, and kept shouting for the queen to spare their lives.
Seeing that they had nothing to say, Lin Xiaoxiang called Qinse over and said, "These maids are so bold that they dared to talk about me behind my back. Beat them, beat them hard, smash their mouths, and make them dare not talk about me again in the future."
As soon as the order was given, someone immediately came forward and hit the palace maids hard in the face.
As this incident fermented, all the palace servants in Lin Xiaoxiang's palace became panic-stricken. No one dared to appear in front of Lin Xiaoxiang unless there was something, for fear that they would accidentally offend Lin Xiaoxiang and be beaten.
This resulted in Lin Xiaoxiang often being unable to find people in a short period of time.
Especially that night, when Lin Xiaoxiang woke up in the middle of the night, she saw only darkness. She wanted to go to the bathroom, but there was no palace maid in the palace.
Logically speaking, there should be two maids left behind to serve her in the middle of the night, but there is not a single one of them to be seen.
