Chapter 110 Shen Wan is poisoned
Although the fragrance was not strong, it went straight into Liu Jinshu's nose.
She really couldn't stand it anymore, so she quickly covered her chest and retched a few times.
For a moment, everyone's attention was drawn to Liu Jinshu's retching sound.
The sound of her retching was really too loud.
The ladies and gentlemen who were having their meal felt uncomfortable when they heard the retching sound.
Even Emperor Showa and Empress, who were dining in high positions, were affected by it.
The queen gently wiped the corner of her mouth with a handkerchief, put down her chopsticks, and looked in the direction of Liu Jinshu.
On the other side, Liu Jinshu was still laughing, completely ignoring the gazes of the people around him.
She didn't have the reserved demeanor of a lady from a noble family at all, and looked just like a rough person.
The queen slammed her hand on the table in anger.
"Miss Liu, are you dissatisfied with the meal I prepared? You actually lost your composure in public!"
Upon hearing this, Liu Jinshu looked towards the queen who was sitting high on the throne.
Her face was pale.
Kneel on the ground immediately.
"Your Majesty, I didn't mean it. Ugh!"
"I am truly in great pain."
The queen really couldn't stand her rudeness.
None of the ladies from prominent families in Yanjing would lose their composure at a banquet.
After all, Liu Jinshu grew up in Yongzhou. Not only does she not know etiquette, she doesn't even have the modesty of a girl.
"Someone, bring Liu Jinshu away to me!"
"What kind of people are these Liu family members? I shouldn't have invited you to come."
Su Yanqiu, who was sitting in the men's seat, quickly stood up.
"Your Majesty, my cousin has only just returned to Yanjing. I don't understand the Yanjing customs and have lost my manners in front of Your Majesty. Please forgive me!"
The Queen looked at Su Yanqiu coldly, "This is your mother's family. Since you just arrived in Yanjing and don't know anything, why are you so competitive?"
"Not only did he steal the Emperor's poetry collection for a competition, but now he's disturbing everyone's enjoyment in the Imperial Garden! Can't you see everyone is having dinner?"
The Queen was already unhappy with the marriage between Prince Rui and Shen Wan, and now she was taking out all her anger on Liu Jinshu.
Su Yanqiu bowed and said, "Please forgive my cousin, Your Majesty. From now on, I will not allow my cousin to attend any gatherings in Yanjing."
The queen shook her sleeves and looked at Liu Jinshu who was still covering his chest.
Liu Jin covered his chest with his hands, looking very embarrassed.
Could it be that she is pregnant?
"Liu Jinshu?" asked the Queen.
Liu Jinshu immediately fell to the ground, "Your Majesty, I didn't mean to do that. Please forgive me!"
The Queen said coldly, "I'm asking you, why are you vomiting? Could it be that you're pregnant?"
Liu Jinshu hesitated and didn't dare to look at the queen who was sitting in the high position.
Then the queen's mocking voice was heard again.
"I forgot that you are the Prince of Qi's concubine. Could it be that the fetus in your belly is the Prince of Qi's?"
"Sister, please don't talk nonsense!" Concubine Gao was displeased.
"No matter what Jing Che does, there's no way he can make Miss Liu's body bigger. Besides..."
"Noble Concubine Gao, please stop defending the Prince of Qi. Could it be that you've forgotten what happened at the Emperor's birthday banquet?"
"My niece is pregnant with Jing Che's child. Judging from the way Liu Jinshu looks now, she must be pregnant too."
"This Jing Che really has many offspring."
"Someone, go get the doctor!"
A young palace maid hurriedly left the imperial garden and went to call the imperial physician.
Concubine Gao looked embarrassed by what the Queen said.
She looked at Liu Jinshu who was kneeling below, feeling quite dissatisfied.
If this fool was really pregnant, His Majesty would definitely let her go to Prince Qi's Mansion.
This idiot is a disaster. He brings bad luck wherever he goes.
"Who knows if the baby she's carrying is our Jing Che's child."
"I heard that when the eldest daughter of the Su family got married, Liu Jinshu and the Prince of Huainan also had physical contact."
"We can't let Jing Che be the scapegoat."
The Queen ignored Concubine Gao.
She wished that the idiot Liu Jinshu would go to Prince Qi's Mansion.
"Whether it is or not, the imperial physician has come to diagnose it, and everything is clear now."
Not long after, a palace maid hurried over with Doctor Zhang from the Imperial Hospital.
Doctor Zhang finished taking Liu Jinshu's pulse and then bowed.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Miss Liu is indeed pregnant."
"Looking at his pulse, it should be more than three months."
"More than three months?" Concubine Gao frowned.
It was five months ago that Prince Qi and Liu Jinshu were at Princess Yanning's residence.
"Your Majesty." Concubine Gao looked at Emperor Showa.
"The fetus in Liu Jinshu's belly cannot be Jing Che's."
"Jing Che and Liu Jinshu only had one contact at the Spring Banquet. They haven't had any contact since then. Now the month doesn't match. I hope Your Majesty will understand."
Emperor Showa glanced coldly at Concubine Gao.
"Noble Concubine Gao has always lived deep in the harem. Does she really know your son well?"
"Has Concubine Gao forgotten what happened on Father's birthday?"
He looked coldly at Liu Jinshu who was kneeling below.
Liu Jinshu lowered her head, clutched her dress tightly, and did not dare to look at the three people in the high seats.
She herself didn't know whether the baby in her belly was from the King of Qi, the Prince of Huainan, or Yun Yi.
In addition to having contact with her at Princess Yanning's residence, the King of Qi had contact with her several times in private later.
And Yun Yi.
So now she really has no idea about the identity of the baby in her belly.
It is impossible to go to the Huainan Palace right now.
Yun Yi abandoned her again because of what happened to her in the Huainan Palace.
Her only way was to get close to the royal family and the King of Qi, so that the child in her womb could become a superior person in the future.
Emperor Zhaohe asked: "Liu Jinshu, I want to ask you, whose child is in your belly?"
Liu Jinshu knocked her head heavily on the ground, "Your Majesty, the child in your belly is the Prince of Qi's child."
"Your Majesty, I beg you to understand. His Royal Highness the Prince of Qi treated me well not only at the banquet at Princess Ning's mansion, but also..."
She did not continue speaking, but looked at Emperor Showa who was sitting on the high throne with tears in her eyes.
"You'd better not lie to me!" Emperor Showa said coldly.
Liu Jinshu's voice choked with sobs: "I am but a little girl. I lost my virginity to His Majesty the Prince of Qi, and now I am pregnant. I beg Your Majesty to grant my unborn child a chance to live."
"The child in my belly is also your Majesty's little grandson!"
As she spoke, she kowtowed again.
Seeing this, the queen on the side showed a look of joy on her face.
On the contrary, Concubine Gao's face was almost distorted with anger.
"Your Majesty, the child in Liu Jinshu's belly is truly the Prince of Qi's."
"Since Liu Jinshu is pregnant, why not let her enter the Qi Wang Mansion as his concubine and continue the royal family's lineage?"
Emperor Showa was silent for a moment.
"In that case, do as the Queen says."
"Come here, send Miss Liu to rest, and have the imperial physician prescribe some medicine to nourish her pregnancy."
"Wait for this child to come down and then testify his kinship with Jing Che through blood. If he is truly a royal heir, I will reward you. If not, I will give you five horses..."
"Miss Shen, what's wrong with you?" Emperor Zhaohe's words were interrupted by a voice.
A loud female voice reached everyone's eardrums.
Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw Shen Wan, who was wearing a light blue skirt, lying on the table, her lips were almost purple, and she was completely asleep.
“Miss Shen seems to be poisoned!”
