They lived like this every day for half a month. Ni Yueshan opened the package and originally thought it was something sent by Jing Yuchen, but after opening it, she found that it was sent by Duan Gouqiong.
A small red leather whip, with the note saying, "For my future nephew or niece."
But the little red whip, Ni Yueshan felt, Duan Gouqiong thought the child must be a girl...
Ni Yueshan raised the corners of her mouth slightly, reached out and touched her abdomen, feeling very happy.
At this time, a servant came to report: "Princess, Miss Yu has been summoned to the palace by the Queen."
Ni Yueshan raised her eyes and asked, "Why tell her?"
"It is said that... Miss Yu Fei's jewelry is very good, and the Queen wants to hear her introduction in person."
"Okay, I got it." Ni Yueshan responded lightly, not caring much.
*
Inside the palace, the Queen was waiting for news from Prince Chen's Mansion, but after waiting for a long time, no one came to report anything. The Queen went from being indifferent at the beginning to being anxious.
"Why is there no news yet?" She looked sharply at Yu Fei who was sitting beside her.
Yu Fei looked innocent: "Queen, I followed your instructions and put the right amount and timing into the soup every time. Wu'er witnessed all of this with her own eyes!"
The Queen's eyes were sharp as she looked at Wu'er. Wu'er then spoke, "Reporting to the Queen, I have indeed witnessed her having sex many times. Logically, there should have been news that Princess Chen had a miscarriage. Could it be that Princess Chen's physical condition has delayed the effectiveness of the medicine?"
The queen felt a headache. She was in the palace at the moment and could not quickly find out what was happening on Ni Yueshan's side. She frowned and did not ask any more questions. She waited for a whole night.
Finally, unable to sit still any longer, he sent someone out of the palace at night to check on Prince Chen's residence. However, the report he received in the end was that Ni Yueshan was safe and sound, with no problems at all...
The Queen only felt more and more depressed. Yu Fei and Wu'er knelt on the ground at the same time and said, "Queen, this servant would never dare to lie to you!"
"I definitely put the medicine into the soup!"
Both of them looked terrified and helpless, not knowing why such a sudden change had happened.
The Queen stood up angrily and said, "Well, leave the palace tomorrow! Let's see what's going on with Ni Yueshan and why she's been able to keep the child until now!"
Yu Fei frowned in confusion and said, "Empress, if I leave the palace, won't that mean I'm being sent to Princess Chen, where she can kill me? If she has a miscarriage, she'll definitely blame me! It'll be hard for me to survive!"
Seeing Yu Fei's panic, the Queen finally said with a sullen face, "Well, let's keep you in the palace for one more day!"
Afterwards, the queen went to rest, and a triumphant smile flashed in Yu Fei's eyes.
The next day, the Queen was still waiting for news of Ni Yueshan's miscarriage, but Ni Yueshan was living her life as usual in Prince Chen's Mansion, still communicating with Jing Yuchen via letters every day, and she did not seem to be in any serious condition.
The queen was inevitably impatient and waited for another day, but there was no news...
The Queen looked at Yu Fei and Wu'er with increasingly stern eyes. Finally, the Queen pointed at Yu Fei and said, "If you fail to do your job well and let her child still live in this world, I will let your child die!"
Yu Fei knelt down on the ground in fear: "Empress, I am truly wronged! Everything I did was under Wu'er's surveillance. She knows best whether I have done my job honestly!"
But the queen doesn't want to hear whether someone is wronged or innocent, she just wants to see the result she wants!
By the second and third days, the Queen had made an exception and taken Yu Fei in for three days. She was angry, and Yu Fei and Wu'er were anxious.
Just as the Queen was losing her temper, a palace maid hurried in and reported to her, "Your Majesty, news has come from Prince Chen's residence that the Princess of Chen is having stomach cramps. The imperial physician has been sent for, and I heard she's screaming miserably!"
The Queen looked at the palace maid with a hint of surprise, which then turned into a hint of joy: "Are you telling the truth?"
"The Empress's news is absolutely true. Miss Qingdie from Prince Chen's residence has anxiously invited several imperial physicians to the residence. I heard from the servants that she has even had spotting!"
The queen was originally still worried, thinking it was just a common stomachache. Upon hearing this, all the sorrow that had covered her face dissipated. She raised the corners of her mouth slightly and said with satisfaction, "That's great!"
Afterwards, she sat down, and the look she gave Yu Fei and Wu'er also changed: "Alright, everyone, get up. Since Princess Chen has had a miscarriage, then... if you go back, you will only be punished. Stay in the palace and wait for news with me. Let's see if Ni Yueshan can get pregnant again in the future!"
As she spoke, a malicious smile appeared on her face. Kneeling on the ground, Yu Fei asked, "Queen, can that medicine also cause infertility?"
"What else? She's had a miscarriage now, and if she gets pregnant again in six months, do I have to repeat the same old trick? You're not tired, I'm tired!"
In Prince Chen's mansion, the servants were almost all busy. Many imperial physicians were invited, but they were separated by gender and were not allowed to observe directly. Only the midwife stood by the bed in the room.
The midwife sighed again and again: "This is bleeding heavily, what should we do! Doctor, come in quickly and take my pulse!"
"Princess Chen's clothes are disheveled, how can we go in? No, no!"
Without thinking, I refused, and then I saw blood flowing out of the room...
The servants hurriedly brought in hot water. Such a heavy amount of bleeding was enough to indicate that the child was most likely dead!
"Diagnosing the pulse with a hanging thread!"
Someone made a suggestion, and although the other doctors found it quite difficult, they had no choice but to do it this way.
Afterwards, the silk thread was pulled apart, and the imperial physician diagnosed Ni Yueshan from a distance. He only felt that the pulse at the wrist was weak, and the slippery pulse was intermittent. What was going on?
"The fetus is gone, so the slippery pulse should have disappeared, but it comes and goes?"
Several doctors exchanged glances, and one of them said helplessly, "Your skills are not good enough!"
Then he pushed the other person away, walked forward, and calmly felt the pulse, but the result was the same...
So does this child still exist or not?
"This pulse is too strange. Could there be something wrong with the silk thread?"
Several people agreed at the same time that it was a problem with the silk thread!
Afterwards, he asked his servants to quickly find new silk threads for hanging veins.
In Prince Chen's Mansion, a maid who had been quietly observing everything frowned and finally turned around and walked out.
She was about to leave Prince Chen's Mansion to report the news, but unexpectedly, a man came towards her. The man was wearing a tight suit and holding a sword in front of his chest. His face was very stern and sharp, and his eyes were looking straight at her.
The woman's expression changed instantly, and her mouth began to tremble...
