The Empress Dowager watched this scene in shock, feeling both heartache and astonishment. "Nian... Nian Nian?"
Suddenly, a great light shone over the vast marshland, and everyone involuntarily closed their eyes.
In that instant, the pink light dissipated, and Chen Zhixian, whose face had been pale, gradually regained her rosy complexion. The blood on the bed also disappeared little by little!
Everyone stared in shock at this scene that seemed to have happened, yet also seemed to have happened nothing at all.
Suddenly, several incense burners in the room overturned simultaneously, as if a strong wind had swept through, but the other things around them remained completely still.
Immediately afterwards, the sound of incense burners overturning began to echo in the courtyard, growing fainter and fainter.
Inside the house, Huo Chengche immediately looked into the courtyard and found that not all the incense burners had fallen over. There were five incense burners in Chen Zhixian's courtyard, but only the one next to the garden had fallen over.
The young man's eyes sharpened, and he immediately ordered, "Someone, go and check immediately what has been overturned, record it, leave someone to guard it, and if there aren't enough people, immediately go to the Inner Court to send more people. Make sure to find out and guard all the overturned items as soon as possible!"
"yes!"
At Huo Chengche's command, the palace servants around him, the Empress Dowager, and Chen Zhixian all ran out.
Inside the room, Luo Dangdang was the first to react, and quickly nudged the imperial physician beside her, "Quickly go and check on Consort Yuan, see if the imperial fetus has been saved!"
The imperial physician took the Empress Dowager's pulse in a daze, initially showing disdain. But after a short while, his eyes widened, his mouth gaped open, and he looked at the Empress Dowager with trembling astonishment.
"Your Majesty the Empress Dowager..."
The Empress Dowager had already taken the crying baby into her arms to comfort him. Upon hearing this, she immediately said, "What's wrong? How are Consort Yuan and the Imperial Heir? Tell me quickly!"
"Your Majesty, Consort Yuan is safe! And the imperial heir in her womb is also safe!"
Upon hearing this, the Empress Dowager almost wept with joy. She hugged the little baby tightly in her arms and kept whispering, "Niannian, thank you Niannian. Your Majesty knows that you saved my grandson..."
The little boy nestled in his grandmother's arms, looking at his godmother still asleep on the bed, tears welling up in his eyes, and asked in his childish voice, "Your Majesty, are godmother and my little brother and sister alright?"
"It's alright, it's alright..." The Empress Dowager gently wiped away the tears welling up in her eyes with a handkerchief. She raised her head, her gaze sharpening as she looked at the incense burner that had inexplicably overturned on the table beside her.
"Imperial Physician, Imperial Preceptor, quickly examine these incense burners! I want to see who has such malicious intentions, daring to use the imperial heir to frame my Nian Nian!"
The imperial physician immediately accepted the order and left, and Luo Dangdang followed to examine him.
"There seems to be nothing wrong with this incense..." The imperial physician examined it, but still looked puzzled.
Since several people in the palace fell ill, the imperial physicians, under Emperor Chongjin's instructions, had already inspected all the incense burners and utensils. If there were any problems, they should have been discovered long ago.
Luo Dangdang also went forward to check, but still couldn't find anything wrong.
Outside, the concubines all looked displeased. They had just been too smug and mocked Princess Fuying, only to have the situation turn around so suddenly.
They were hoping that the imperial physician and the national advisor wouldn't find anything, so that it wouldn't prove Xiao Chanian was innocent, and their complaints wouldn't matter.
Otherwise, if Princess Fuying is truly innocent, then once the Empress Dowager and Emperor Chongjin are done with their business, they will probably investigate their nonsense!
Just as the concubines were eagerly watching the imperial physician and the Grand Preceptor shake their heads repeatedly in the inner chamber, a young eunuch rushed in overjoyed, knelt down at the door of the inner chamber with a "thump," and shouted,
