Chapter 229: Exposed in Person
Chang Liang Di had long guessed that Xiao Jin Yan was in a hurry to go to He Huan Palace because she heard the news that Shen Chu Wei was pregnant. She smiled slightly and said, "I am also thinking of going to He Huan Palace. Would you like to go with Your Highness?"
Xiao Jinyan looked at her smug look, his eyes were cold and emotionless.
But for the sake of my uncle's face, some things cannot be said, and they cannot be too excessive.
His voice was still lukewarm: "Tomorrow is your enthronement ceremony, so you'd better prepare well, otherwise you will make mistakes tomorrow and make a fool of yourself."
In fact, Xiao Jinyan really wants to go on a business trip tomorrow and cancel the ceremony of enthroning the Crown Princess.
Chang Liangdi was stunned for a moment, thinking that tomorrow would be the enthronement ceremony, so she should be well prepared.
It was just a bit embarrassing to hear Xiao Jinyan say this.
"I understand."
Xiao Jinyan withdrew his gaze and strode towards the Hehuan Palace. He disappeared in a short while.
Chang Liangdi stood there, watching Xiao Jinyan's figure disappear around the corner. She was naturally sad to be ignored by her lover.
But when I think that I will be the Crown Princess tomorrow, what does it matter if I don’t like it?
She sneered in her heart again, Xiao Jinyan, do you really think Shen Chuwei is happy? In the end, it's just a false joy!
And the child I gave birth to is the eldest son, the legitimate eldest son, no one can compare to him.
Shen Chuwei is even less worthy!
Chang Liangdi withdrew her gaze, flicked her handkerchief, and proudly returned to Xinlan Palace.
Hehuan Hall
When Xiao Jinyan arrived, Shen Chuwei was eating oranges, which were picked from the backyard of Xiyun Pavilion and were particularly fresh.
Seeing Xiao Jinyan coming, she hurriedly put down the orange in her hand and stood up to greet him.
"Your Highness."
Concubine Xu had just stuffed a slice of orange into her mouth when she saw Xiao Jinyan coming. She quickly spit it out and stood up to greet him.
"Your Highness."
Xiao Jinyan saw that Concubine Xu was also there, "Everyone, get up."
"Thank you, Your Highness."
Xiao Jinyan came and sat down on the chair. Seeing a pile of orange peels on the table, his brows wrinkled. He raised his eyes to look at Shen Chuwei and asked, "What did Doctor Zhao Yu say?"
"Dr. Zhao Yu checked my pulse and said I'm pregnant." Shen Chuwei took out the prescription written by Dr. Zhao Yu and showed it to Xiao Jinyan. "Your Highness, look, I just said I was having nausea and vomiting, and he wrote me a prescription. It's actually a prescription to induce menstruation."
Xiao Jinyan knew very well whether Shen Chuwei was pregnant or not. They had never had sex since Shen Chuwei started her period, so how could she be pregnant?
If a doctor cannot even tell the simple pulse of pregnancy, he is not worthy of the position of doctor.
Xiao Jinyan held a prescription in one hand and glanced at the handwriting on it. They were all written by the same person.
It also made him more certain that Doctor Zhao Yu not only wanted to frame Concubine Xu, but also wanted to frame Xiao Jiu.
Concubine Xu looked at the scene in front of her in shock. Only now did she realize that His Highness Fangzi knew about the plan to have a child.
She was almost scared to death just now.
But now it seems that His Highness is not angry!
Xiao Jinyan raised his eyes and looked towards Concubine Xu.
Concubine Xu lowered her eyes in fear.
Xiao Jinyan didn't say anything because, as Xiaojiu said, Concubine Xu had no intention of harming her.
It is now almost certain that there is something wrong with Doctor Zhao Yu, and there must be someone directing him behind the scenes.
As soon as Concubine Xu saw Xiao Jinyan's attitude, she knew that Xiao Jinyan would take care of this matter. She asked impatiently, "Your Highness, are you going to arrest him now?"
Xiao Jinyan said calmly: "It's not the right time yet."
"I understand." Concubine Xu did not dare to ask more.
During dinner, Xiao Jinyan asked someone to invite Doctor Zhao Yu over to check Shen Chuwei's pulse again.
Liu Xi went to invite Doctor Zhao Yu.
Doctor Zhao Yu was preparing medicine when he was surprised to learn that His Highness wanted him to check Shen Liangdi's pulse.
Liu Xi smiled and said, "Doctor Zhao Yu, Your Highness is very happy that Concubine Shen is pregnant, but he is also worried that Concubine Shen has been tired these past two days and it will affect the fetus."
Having worked in the Imperial Hospital for a year, Doctor Zhao Yu could still understand what Liu Xi meant. He was just worried that something might happen since His Highness had slept with Concubine Shen Liangdi in the past two days.
"I'll be there right away." Doctor Zhao Yu packed up the herbs on hand, picked up the medicine box and hurriedly followed Liu Xi to the Hehuan Hall.
At this time, Shen Chuwei was lying on the bed, looking at Xiao Jinyan who was sitting beside the bed. She found that he had been staring at her for five full minutes, as if he wanted to see a flower before stopping.
She couldn't bear Xiao Jinyan's focused gaze and couldn't help asking, "Your Highness, is there something dirty on my face?"
Xiao Jinyan shook his head, "No."
Shen Chuwei's beautiful eyes were full of doubts: "Then why do you keep staring at me?"
Liu Xi hurried in to report, "Your Highness, Doctor Zhao Yu is here."
Xiao Jinyan raised his head and looked towards Liu Xi, and saw Doctor Zhao Yu walking in closely behind him carrying a medical box. He looked unfamiliar, about 30 years old.
Doctor Zhao Yu put down his medicine box and knelt down to salute, "May your highness be blessed with good health."
Xiao Jinyan said, "Get up and take a good look at Shen Liangdi first to see if she's alright."
"I will now take Shen Liangdi's pulse." Doctor Zhao Yu stood up and walked to the bedside. This was his second time taking Shen Liangdi's pulse. He took out the props and handkerchief with ease.
Xiao Jinyan sat beside the bed and watched, which made Dr. Zhao Yu feel very stressed.
Shen Chuwei glanced at Doctor Zhao Yu, and the pulse was not anything to look at. She then looked at Xiao Jinyan and found that he was very serious at this moment.
Xiao Jinyan waited for Dr. Zhao Yu to withdraw his hand, and asked knowingly: "How is it? Is the fetus safe?"
Doctor Zhao Yu lowered his brows and nodded: "Your Highness, Shen Liangdi is in good health, the fetus is stable, and there is no serious problem."
Xiao Jinyan's voice turned colder: "Really? You didn't diagnose it wrong?"
Doctor Zhao Yu's forehead began to sweat, but he did not dare to raise his hand to wipe it off. He just repeated what he had just said, "Your Highness, I am not wrong. Concubine Shen is in good health and the fetus is stable."
Xiao Jinyan said coldly: "Then why do I feel uneasy? You know that Shen Liangdi's pregnancy is my first child. If anything goes wrong, you can't afford it."
Doctor Zhao Yu only felt a chill on his back, and even his voice trembled: "Your Highness, I know. I will re-diagnose Shen Liangdi's pulse."
Xiao Jinyan: “No need.”
Doctor Zhao Yu secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He almost thought that His Highness had noticed something and was scared to death.
Shen Chuwei really admires Xiao Jinyan, whose acting skills are much better than theirs, and can be said to be flawless.
She and Xu Cefei couldn't hold back several times, and they used the excitement of chatting to avoid the possibility of exposing their secrets.
Xiao Jinyan ordered, "Liu Xi, go ask Doctor Wen Yu to come over and check Shen Liangdi's pulse."
"Yes." Liu Xi took the order, turned around and strode out.
When Doctor Zhao Yu heard that Doctor Wen Yu was asked to come, he felt so guilty that his legs went weak with fear. But then he felt a little relieved when he thought that Doctor Wen Yu was not in the Imperial Hospital today. He just had to get through today and he would be fine.
Doctor Zhao Yu comforted himself in his heart.
Liu Xi went to the Imperial Hospital and did not see Doctor Wen Yu. After asking, he found out that Doctor Wen Yu had left the palace today.
