Chapter 333 Injury Examination
Hearing that cartilage powder would not harm the child, Shen Tang finally felt relieved.
Dean Zhao wrote a prescription, gave a few instructions, and then left.
As soon as Zhao Yuanzheng left, Zhao Mama, who was beside Queen Xu, came over. She first asked about Chen Tang's situation with concern, and then said, "Is the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess of Jingyang going to leave the palace?"
Although he was fine, he was frightened after all, and Chen Tang had no intention of attending the Golden Autumn Banquet.
The princess was also worried about Chen Tang staying in the palace.
Shen Tang nodded.
Zhao Ma said, "The Crown Prince's Consort is leaving the palace. The Queen will not keep you here, so she asked me to ask about the injury of the Princess of Qi..."
Chen Tang didn't know about Chen Xian's injury yet. She frowned and asked, "Princess Qi was injured?"
The Princess of Qi was injured, but the Princess of Jingyang knew nothing about it...
Madam Zhao nodded. "The Princess of Qi's arm was injured and she lost a lot of blood. She fainted. The imperial physician gave her acupuncture. When she woke up, she said that she had an argument with the Crown Prince's wife. The Crown Prince's wife got so angry that she stabbed her with a golden hairpin and she jumped off the boat and fled in a panic..."
Empress Xu did not believe a word of what Shen Xi said.
The Princess of Jingyang was of a calm nature and would not do anything to hurt the Princess of Qi in anger, but there were only two people on the boat at the time, Chen Tang nearly drowned, and was found to be pregnant. Queen Xu would definitely not torment Chen Tang, so she summoned Chen Tang for questioning and asked Nanny Zhao to ask her a question.
No matter what Shen Tang said, Queen Xu believed her.
Shen Tang's face was very gloomy.
Everyone in Kyoto knew that she could swim, and pushing her into the water would not kill her, but Chen Xi chose to kill her by drowning, using her ability to swim to exonerate herself.
But she didn't expect that even though they had made a thorough plan, Xie Guimo was always out of their plan. He arrived in time and rescued her when she was poisoned by the cartilage powder and had no strength to swim.
Shen Xi was left with no choice but to stab herself to exonerate herself.
Chen Tang looked at Nanny Zhao and said, "Please tell the Queen that if Princess Qi insists that I stabbed her with the hairpin, the people from the Ministry of Justice and the Dali Temple are in the palace today. Ask them to examine the wound to see whether it was me who stabbed her or she stabbed herself!"
"After examining the injuries, I will leave it to Concubine Ye to deal with."
Chen Tang only said this, she didn't even mention the matter of cartilage powder.
Because there is no need.
She would not give Shen Xi another chance to live.
She wanted the amulet in Shen Xi's belly to become her death knife!
She wanted to let Concubine Ye know how her nephew from her natal family cheated on her son, the Prince of Qi!
Chen Tang was talking about letting Concubine Ye handle it, not the emperor, so Nanny Zhao knew what was going on.
After bowing, Nanny Zhao left.
The princess looked at Chen Tang and sighed, "Before the child is born, it's better not to come to this palace."
Shen Tang nodded.
Using pregnancy as an excuse, no one would say anything to her if she didn't enter the palace.
"I'm going back home with Tang'er."
Xie Guimo picked up Chen Tang horizontally and strode out of the palace.
Besides, when Nanny Zhao returned, the Imperial Hospital had already prepared the pregnancy-maintaining medicine and gave it to Chen Xi to take.
Chen Xi had been pregnant for several months, so it was not easy for her to have a miscarriage, but the imperial physician still prescribed miscarriage-maintaining medicine just in case.
Seeing that only Nanny Zhao had gone back alone, Concubine Ye looked gloomy, "Where is the Princess of Jingyang?"
Madam Zhao said, "The Crown Prince of Jingyang fell into the water and was frightened. The Crown Prince of Jingyang took her back to the palace."
Concubine Ye said coldly, "She hurt Princess Qi, and the matter has not been investigated clearly. Who allowed her to leave the palace?!"
Madam Zhao said, "The Crown Prince's wife of Prince Jingyang said that if Princess Qi insisted that she was the one who stabbed her with the golden hairpin, then we should ask the Ministry of Justice and the Dali Temple to examine the injury. If it is really confirmed that she did it, you, Concubine Ye, will handle it."
Concubine Ye's eyes narrowed.
Chen Xi suddenly panicked.
Empress Xu had doubts in her heart, and now she was even more certain, "Then please ask the Minister of Justice and the Minister of Dali Temple to come and examine the injuries."
The maid turned around and was about to pass on the message.
Concubine Ye tried to stop her, "Are you going to let a stranger see Princess Qi's arms? Where do you want to put Princess Qi's reputation?!"
Queen Xu said, "How can we examine the injury if we can't see Princess Qi's arm? Are we going to investigate this matter?"
Chen Xian said, "If you want someone to look at my arm, then I won't check it. Second sister didn't hurt me on purpose..."
He complained as soon as he woke up. Concubine Ye was aggressive and wanted to examine his injuries. He then changed his words and said it was not intentional.
Using your reputation to shield yourself is not such an easy thing to do. The Crown Prince and Crown Princess of Jingyang are on guard. Zhao Ma said, "The Crown Princess of Jingyang said that they should take into account the reputation of the Princess of Qi. It is not appropriate to let the Ministry of Justice and the Dali Temple examine the injury directly. They can let the imperial physician examine the wound. The Ministry of Justice and the Dali Temple do not need to examine the injury personally, and they can also determine whether it was caused by someone else or by herself."
The Princess of Qi's injuries were bandaged by the imperial physician.
In the eyes of doctors and imperial physicians, there is no distinction between men and women.
Empress Xu said, "Then let's ask the imperial physician to come again."
In short, we must find out how this injury came about today.
The palace maid was about to leave, but after taking just two steps, Shen Ying fell to her knees.
Queen Xu asked, "What is Princess Qi doing?"
Chen Xian said, "I got hurt by accident..."
Queen Xu laughed angrily, "Accidentally?"
Concubine Ye scolded, "What's going on?!"
As if he was unaware.
Chen Xian knelt on the ground and said, "I went to find my second sister, hoping that she would forgive my parents. My second sister refused, so I pulled out my gold hairpin and prepared to die. She tried to take my hairpin, but I was afraid that she would snatch it away, so I accidentally stabbed my arm while fighting for it..."
Queen Xu also didn't believe this was the truth, but Chen Tang didn't even want to confront Shen Xie. No one could deny Shen Xie's words on behalf of Chen Tang, so they could only find loopholes in Shen Xie's words.
However, before Empress Xu could get angry, Concubine Ye punished Shen Ying first, "You relied on your pregnancy to confuse right and wrong and slander the Crown Prince's wife of Prince Jingyang. I feel sorry for you and want to stand up for you!"
"After the banquet, I will report this matter to the emperor in detail, and the emperor will punish me severely!"
"Why are you still kneeling on the ground? Isn't it enough to embarrass yourself? Go back to Prince Qi's mansion!"
The palace maid quickly helped Chen Xi up and left.
Concubine Ye said that she would hand the matter over to the Emperor for disposal. Empress Xu had nothing to say, so Concubine Ye walked away.
After Concubine Ye left, Empress Xu asked Aunt Zhao, "Is the case of Prince Jingyang's wife so serious?"
Madam Zhao said, "I think he's fine..."
Why did you leave the palace without coming here?
The Crown Princess of Jingyang knows how difficult Concubine Ye is. Isn't she worried at all that Princess Qi will slander her?
Her intuition told Queen Xu that the Crown Prince's wife was not the kind of person who would take a beating without fighting back, and the Crown Prince of Jingyang was even less likely to do so.
The Crown Prince's wife was rescued. When the Crown Prince of Jingyang saved her, his hands were shaking. It is no exaggeration to say that he regarded the Crown Prince's wife as more important than his own life.
The Princess of Qi almost killed the Princess of Jingyang and her unborn child. The Prince of Jingyang would never let the Princess of Qi off easily.
Queen Xu had a vague feeling that the calmer the situation was, the more turbulent the undercurrents were.
