Chapter 179 That woman's surname is Feng
“I’m not quite sure either. My brother keeps a close eye on people. I only saw him once from afar, and then I heard…” The Fourth Prince paused deliberately.
"What did you hear? Don't keep me in suspense." Qin Yeting's tone was impatient.
The fourth prince was silent for a moment before slowly saying, "I heard that woman's surname is Feng."
"What?!" Qin Yeting was stunned when he heard the news.
He glanced around to make sure Xia Yue wasn't there before quietly asking, "Which one?"
"Which other family could be involved? Of course, it's the Feng family."
"Nonsense! I'm asking whether it's the 'Feng' in 'Consort Feng' or... the 'Feng' in 'Feng Yun'."
If it's the former, then it's royal incest, a huge scandal.
If it's the latter, it's better than incest, but not much better.
Moreover, if Xiaoyue knew that her mother had caught the emperor's eye and was the very poisoned patient she was trying to save, the situation would only become more complicated.
"I don't know which one it is exactly; the emperor doesn't trust me that much," the fourth prince replied with a hint of helplessness.
In the royal family, he was at best an obedient dog.
Those who didn't obey are long gone.
"I advise you not to tell your wife about this before the truth is clear. Whether it's Consort Feng or Feng Yun, she will try to snatch the person away from the Emperor."
She is no match for the royal family, not even if the entire Feng and Qin families unite.
This is Country A, where imperial power is supreme.
The fourth prince offered a serious suggestion.
Qin Yeting nodded, indicating that he understood.
It is precisely because the imperial power of Country A is too strong that he cannot touch Gu Chen for the time being.
Gu Chen's backer is the emperor.
Otherwise, given what Gu Chen did to his little Yue'er, he would have died a hundred times over.
Now let's talk about Xia Yue.
When she came to visit Xia Jingjing, Xia Jingjing had just finished vomiting.
Her pregnancy symptoms were more severe than those of most pregnant women; she would vomit several times an hour.
The reason I was able to hold back in the palace was because I was afraid of being disrespectful to the emperor, so I took some medicine beforehand.
But every medicine has its side effects, so she didn't dare take it too often.
Upon seeing Xia Yue appear, even though Xia Jingjing hated Xia Yue intensely, she still pleaded on the surface, "Sister, you are a divine healer, please save me quickly."
“I’m not your sister,” Xia Yue said coldly.
"Okay, you're not my sister, you're my god, is that alright? I'm begging you, I'm really about to... ugh..." Xia Jingjing finished speaking and vomited again.
Xia Yue had someone clean up the filth on the ground before impatiently walking over.
As a doctor, she never looked down on her patients.
But Xia Jingjing is an exception.
The other person is not a patient, but an enemy.
She walked over to Xia Jingjing and took her pulse to examine her.
Upon examination, it was discovered that Xia Jingjing's pregnancy was extremely unstable and she could miscarry at any time!
Xia Jingjing's body has residual effects from a large amount of drug treatment, which can have a significant impact on the fetus.
Even if they are born, they will have congenital deficiencies.
"You're a miracle doctor, you can definitely save my baby, right?" Xia Jingjing was clearly aware of her own body, so she directly asked about saving the pregnancy.
Xia Yue looked at Xia Jingjing with disgust and said coldly, "I am a miracle doctor, not a god. I can't save you."
"Just name your price, as long as you can save my child."
"You should keep that money to save your life," Xia Yue said coldly.
Given Xia Jingjing's current condition, there is a very high chance she will die because of this child.
Unfortunately, in Xia Jingjing's opinion, Xia Yue was just making excuses because she didn't want to treat her.
In a fit of anger, Xia Jingjing actually threatened, "If you don't find a way to save this child, I'll frame you for the miscarriage!"
"Heh!" Xia Yue sneered. She hadn't expected Xia Jingjing to keep lowering her standards time and time again!
Shamelessness knows no bounds.
She was just coerced by Gu Chen, and now she's being threatened by Xia Jingjing. Why do all these people treat her like a pushover?
"Fine, bring it on then." Xia Yue said and left.
She couldn't even be bothered to prescribe basic pregnancy-preserving medication for Xia Jingjing.
After she came out, she ran into Qin Yeting, who was coming to find her, with the Fourth Prince by his side.
As soon as Xia Yue saw the Fourth Prince, she spoke frankly, "You should find a better obstetrician to take care of Xia Jingjing's pregnancy yourselves. That way, you might suffer less. I'm not going to keep you company."
The fourth prince had already heard from the obstetrician that the fetus seemed unstable.
Hearing Xia Yue's words, he lost even more confidence.
It seems this pregnancy is doomed.
He wasn't too sad, though. It was just an unborn child; once it was gone, it was gone.
Anyway, he's becoming less and less interested in Xia Jingjing.
On the contrary, his heart would involuntarily race every time he saw Xia Yue.
Especially those eyes...
It's a pity, she's already taken.
That master was someone he dared not provoke.
"Xiaoyue, now that you're done with your work, let's go together." Qin Yeting stepped forward, took Xia Yue's hand, and left.
"Please take care, gentlemen. I need to go see my concubine, so I won't see you off," the Fourth Prince said, bidding farewell.
Xia Yue glanced at the Fourth Prince, nodded in acknowledgment, and then left.
Once they were out of the car, with only Qin Yeting and Xia Yue inside, Xia Yue immediately asked, "So? Does the Fourth Prince know who the Emperor is hiding?"
"He said... he wasn't quite sure either." Qin Yeting didn't dare tell Xia Yue the truth, only gripping the steering wheel and looking guiltily ahead.
Xia Yue was quite disappointed upon hearing this.
