Nangong Yan suddenly stood up and felt dizzy.
Nangong Yuan sneered, "Miscarriage?"
How come he didn't remember touching her?
Li Zhang's deep fear returned, and he spoke cautiously, "Your Majesty?"
Nangong Yuan glanced at him and said, "Go ahead."
"yes."
When the two arrived at the Yufu Palace, they heard heart-wrenching cries coming from inside.
Nangong Yuan was stunned.
Li Zhang was very worried because this was the emperor's first child!
How come, how come it’s gone just after I heard about it?
This wait lasted for a full half hour.
The imperial physician inside breathed a sigh of relief and came out. Seeing Nangong Yuan, he immediately knelt down and saluted, "Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you."
Nangong Yuan frowned, "Noble Concubine Mu..."
Before Nangong Yuan could finish his question, the imperial physician kowtowed and apologized, "Noble Concubine Mu sent someone here today, complaining of abdominal pain. I hurried over and discovered that Noble Concubine Mu was about to miscarry. I tried my best to save her, but I still couldn't save the baby..."
This is the emperor's first child, even if it is not his fault.
It is inevitable that people will be angered.
My back, which had not sweated at all after the thrilling experience, was now soaked in cold sweat.
The imperial physician had already prepared himself for the anger to be taken out on him, but for a long time he didn't hear Nangong Yuan speak.
He subconsciously looked up and saw Nangong Yuan turning a ring on his hand, but his eyes were fixed on the door, wondering what he was thinking.
He had no choice but to bow his head even lower.
Nangong Yuan pondered for a moment before saying, "Go down."
The imperial physician was stunned for a moment, and then a sense of joy at surviving the disaster burst out in his heart.
After everyone left, Nangong Yuan entered the bedroom next door.
Seeing the visitor, Mulan Yan couldn't help crying, "Your Majesty, please make a decision for our prince!"
Nangong Yuan chewed it carefully, "Ours?"
After hearing these words, Mulan Yan's tears fell even harder.
Yin Lian quickly whispered to comfort her, "Your Highness, the Imperial Physician just told you not to worry too much after a miscarriage. Please don't cry."
Mulan Yan's sobs gradually subsided, and she looked at Nangong Yuan with a pale face, "On the night of the fifteenth, Your Majesty was drunk, and you stayed in Yufu Palace."
Nangong Yuan frowned, "I didn't touch you that night."
Mulanyan laughed self-deprecatingly, "No? Every night in the palace there are records of all the sleeping arrangements. If Your Majesty doesn't believe me, just ask Li Zhang to check."
Li Zhang glanced at Nangong Yuan and seeing that he agreed, he hurriedly asked someone to get the booklet.
Nangong Yuan saw that it was indeed recorded. He rubbed his brows and asked, "Why didn't you say anything about it later?"
Mulanyan gave a bitter smile, "Will the emperor be happy if he knows?" She didn't want Nangong Yuan to reply, but just said calmly: "Your Majesty, this is not what you want, but the child is innocent. I beg you to seek justice for him."
Nangong Yuan looked at Mulan Yan deeply, "Fair?"
Mulan Yan stared at a certain place with resentment. "It was the Queen Mother who harmed me. Before going to Xiangguo Temple, I was so happy that I touched my stomach unconsciously. Later, the Queen Mother gave me some tea. It was after I drank that tea that the abdominal pain started."
"The Empress Dowager has arrived."
Two sentences sounded at the same time.
Nangong Yuan glanced outside and said lightly, "The Queen Mother happened to be here."
When Qingyin heard the palace maid report that Concubine Mu had a miscarriage, she hurried over. She didn't expect to hear these words as soon as she stepped into the hall.
She was a little confused and looked at Nangong Yuan and then at Mulan Yan.
Seeing that neither of them spoke, she had to break the silence and asked, "What's going on? Why did this happen so suddenly?"
Seeing her hypocritical appearance, Mulan Yan said resentfully, "Empress Dowager, why are you pretending here? Don't you know best that such a thing could happen?"
Qingyin was bewildered. "What do you mean, Concubine Mu? You've lost your child, and I'm just as heartbroken as you are."
"Heartbroken?" Mulan Yan snorted coldly, "The Queen Mother sent something herself, did she forget? Fortunately, the imperial physician has just checked and found that the tea leaves are mixed with some blood-activating medicine."
Nangong Yuan also looked at Qingyin with complicated eyes.
Qingyin suddenly turned around and looked at Nangong Yuan. Seeing him looking at her like that, a trace of sadness suddenly surged in her heart, "Your Majesty, you don't believe me either?"
Nangong Yuan subconsciously wanted to shake his head, but he held back. He said, "If the Queen Mother is innocent, no one would be able to frame her."
Qingyin turned her head away from him and looked at Mulanyan instead, "I didn't do it. Besides, why would I harm your child?"
Mulanyan's eyes lingered on Nangong Yuan and Qingyin, "Does the Queen Mother insist that I tell her? You and the Emperor..."
If Nangong Yi hadn't told her, she might still be in the dark.
One of them is the emperor and the other is the empress dowager.
How could you do such an immoral thing?
It was in vain that I still felt sorry for her because of what happened at Xiangguo Temple at that time.
It turns out that I was the fool who was deceived.
"Be careful with your words, Imperial Concubine!" Nangong Yuan warned.
Mulan Yan raised her head slightly, holding back the tears that were about to fall. "It is my fault for speaking out of turn, but Your Majesty, that is our first child. Are you really not going to seek justice for him? There are still some tea leaves left. If you don't believe me, just call the imperial physician to check."
After saying this, he said nothing more, with a sad look on his face.
Qingyin sneered, "That tea, I gave it to you for so long, it's normal for something to be inside. And I still accuse you of being the thief crying thief."
Mulan Yan was so angry that she started coughing.
Yin Lian patted her back quickly, and when the coughing subsided, she knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, please listen to what this servant has to say. The tea that the Empress Dowager sent over has indeed been good for a while, but the Imperial Concubine was unwell some time ago and didn't drink any tea, so the tea was properly stored in the cabinet in the Imperial Concubine's Palace. The Imperial Concubine has felt better these past two days, so this servant took the tea that the Empress Dowager sent over and brewed it for the Imperial Concubine to drink.
Unexpectedly, after drinking the tea for three days in a row, the Imperial Concubine suddenly developed severe abdominal pain today. The Imperial Physician smelled the tea and said there was indeed something wrong with it!
Nangong Yuan stared at her for a moment and was about to speak.
Qingyin had already spoken first, "Since the tea is problematic, then we'll investigate thoroughly. I'm a decent person, so I'm not afraid."
Nangong Yuan was silent for a moment and looked away, "Then let's investigate thoroughly."
Qingyin forced herself not to look at him, "Then I will return to the palace and wait. If the real culprit is not found, I will not leave the Cining Palace."
Mulanyan was stunned. She didn't expect that the Queen Mother would ask for house arrest herself.
But this is exactly what she wants.
She lowered her head and waited until the room was quiet before Nangong Yuan said, "Your Highness, please rest first. I will arrange for someone to investigate this matter thoroughly."
Mulan Yan subconsciously raised her head, staring into Nangong Yuan's calm black eyes, and couldn't help but feel sad again, "Your Majesty, are you really not sad at all?"
Nangong Yuan didn't answer.
Mulanyan pulled a self-deprecating smile at the corner of her mouth. She was unwilling to accept it and continued to ask: "If it is found out that it was really the Queen Mother who did it, how will His Majesty deal with it?"
