Upon hearing this, the emperor strode out and saw Xu Lingyi lying on the ground, with her maid helping her up.
"What happened to your master?" The emperor quickly squatted down to check.
"Maybe it's because the sun is too strong, the Queen is kneeling on the ground again." Chunhua said.
The emperor picked up Xu Lingyi and said, "Imperial Physician!"
Princess Minghua also rushed over at this time.
"Father, it's obvious that she's fine. She's only been kneeling for a short while, so she must be pretending. Besides, let's talk about Doctor Li in the palace. My mother has been poisoned, and she needs a doctor by her side."
Princess Minghua's disgust for Xu Lingyi reached its peak. She just wanted to make Xu Lingyi unhappy, and it would be best if Xu Lingyi died.
Little did she know that her behavior also made the emperor disappointed in her.
And disappointment can accumulate little by little.
Even as a parent, it is difficult to go back to the way things were after so many disappointments.
Princess Minghua saw the emperor abandon her and her mother, and stride out of the banquet holding Xu Lingyi.
"Father."
Princess Minghua shouted.
But today, for the first time in his life, the emperor didn't even look at her.
Princess Minghua hated Xu Lingyi even more.
This was the first time in her life that her father favored someone other than her.
It's not like she hadn't made things difficult for her father's concubines in the past, but her father never protected any of them, and he certainly wouldn't scold her for these women.
Now her mother had just been in trouble and she was very sad. Her father had left her here alone just for that woman.
Princess Minghua threw herself into the Empress Dowager's arms: "Grandmother, I am in pain. Father is only thinking about that woman right now. She just fainted, but my mother..."
The Queen Mother patted her back gently. "Grandmother is still here. Your father left because he knew I was with you. If you want to blame anyone, blame only this Xu. You know how much your father cares about you."

On the way, Xu Lingyi slowly opened her eyes.
"His Majesty……?"
"My beloved concubine, how do you feel now? You just fainted." The emperor hurriedly supported her and asked about her condition.
Xu Lingyi covered her head, her voice sounding weak: "I still feel dizzy."
"The imperial physician will be here soon. Let him take a good look at it," the emperor said. "I'm sorry for the inconvenience caused to my beloved concubine today."
Xu Lingyi didn't want to say that she was not wronged at this moment. She already had a child and no longer needed to be so understanding.
"What the princess did today was indeed inappropriate." The emperor continued.
Princess Minghua's behavior has become more and more outrageous recently. He loves his daughter and is very tolerant of her, but today he can't help but doubt his way of education.
Xu was his concubine and Princess Minghua's elder. Although he knew that he loved Xu the most, he still insisted on making her kneel down.
In the emperor's view, Princess Minghua was slapping him in the face.
What's more, he really likes Xu.
Xu was different from the women he had favored in the past. He didn't care about those women.
He could tolerate Princess Minghua's rudeness towards those women. He didn't care about those people, so he didn't think there was anything wrong with it.
But when Princess Minghua's outrageous behavior fell on Xu, he felt distressed and pity.
Especially when he heard that Xu Lingyi fainted today, his heart suddenly lifted up, fearing that something had really happened to Xu Lingyi.
It was also at this moment that he realized that Xu was different in his heart.
He then made up his mind to correct Princess Minghua's bad habits.
————
The imperial physician arrived very quickly. As soon as Xu Lingyi and the emperor returned to her palace, the imperial physician arrived.
"Imperial Physician, please hurry up! Concubine De and His Majesty are waiting for you. Given His Majesty's love for Concubine De, if anything happens to Concubine De, how will you and I be able to survive?"
The doctor's forehead was covered in sweat. He gasped and said, "It's already very fast, Zhang Zongguan. If you run any faster, my old bones will give out."
As soon as he entered the hall, the imperial physician was once again held tightly by someone.
"Doctor, please go and see my master." Chunhua didn't know that Xu Lingyi was pregnant. She simply thought that her master had really fainted and was extremely anxious.
The imperial physician quickly wiped the sweat from his forehead and resigned himself to his fate as he rushed inside.
As soon as he entered the hall, the emperor urged him to check.
But when he looked up, he found that the man's face was just a little pale and he didn't seem to have any serious problems.
As a result, he was hurried on the road, as if the Empress Defei was about to die of illness.
What is going on?
The next second, when he reached out to take her pulse, his expression became increasingly strange.
The emperor saw the doctor's expression change again and again, so he asked directly: "How is Concubine De? Tell me quickly!"
The imperial physician didn't dare to speak.
He actually diagnosed that Concubine De seemed to be pregnant.
He must have made a wrong diagnosis. Perhaps he was walking too fast on the road just now and he didn't calm down at all, so he even misjudged the pulse.
"Your Majesty, please forgive me. Perhaps my breathing has not yet calmed down, and I made a mistake in my diagnosis. Your Majesty, please allow me to rest for a while and then examine you again."
The imperial physician knelt on the ground. He had no choice. It was better for His Majesty to blame him than for him to make a wrong diagnosis.
The emperor said coldly: "I will give you some time to watch carefully."
"Your Majesty, I hope there won't be any problem with me." Xu Lingyi pretended to be afraid and spoke.
The emperor's heart was also lifted, but he still patted Xu Lingyi on the back and soothed her gently: "My beloved concubine is still so young, what could happen? Don't worry."
Xu Lingyi stopped talking. The two masters in the hall were staring at him, and the pressure on the imperial physician reached its peak.
