Chapter 501 Slap
This is... miscarriage?
Yuan Xiao nodded: "She said she had already seen blood, so she went to ask the imperial physician and the emperor and empress for help."
"Tsk." Shen Chuliu frowned: "Let's change clothes. Don't even think about having a good time today."
Lady Yao nodded: "This matter cannot involve the queen, right?"
"No way, let's talk about it after we go there." Shen Chuliu said.
Lady Yao nodded, and the two of them went to change clothes.
They were not in a hurry and waited until the emperor and empress arrived before going out and walking slowly towards Cuiyunxuan. Since they were close, they did not need to ride in a sedan chair.
After Shen Chuliu and Lady Yao arrived, naturally someone started to sing along.
In the inner room, Li Zhaoyi was crying loudly, but when she heard Concubine Jing say this, she bounced up like a spring.
He rushed out with disheveled hair, without caring that he was only wearing a thin shirt.
As soon as Shen Chuliu stepped in, she saw Li Zhaoyi rushing over, waving her long nails and cursing: "Shen Chuliu, you bitch! You vicious woman! You killed my child!"
Shen Chuliu got angry immediately. He didn't care what she looked like at all. He reached out and slapped her in the face, using his long nails to slap her.
Everyone was stunned. Li Zhaoyi was also stunned and hadn't reacted yet. Shen Chuliu slapped her again.
Li Zhaoyi was not able to stand firmly and staggered, and Shen Chuliu had already slapped her for the third time: "The emperor has convicted me? The queen has convicted me? What are you doing with your claws and teeth baring like a ghost?"
Her expression was incredibly calm. She was only wearing a light yellow dress today, and she didn't draw any eyebrows or eyeliner. She still had a pair of beautiful, even innocent almond-shaped eyes.
But at this moment, she looked at Li Zhaoyi quietly, and people actually felt a chill.
Li Zhaoyi was slapped three times in a row. She was stunned and even stopped crying. She almost sat on the ground with the help of her maid.
There are already red marks on her cheeks, and she will probably get swollen soon.
Concubine Jing's three slaps were without mercy, and each one was louder than the last.
"Your Majesty, how are you, Queen?" Shen Chuliu stepped forward and bowed: "I have lost my composure."
Qi Yixiu waved his hand and said, "Li Zhaoyi, you said that Concubine Jing harmed you. Please explain clearly."
He and the queen sat down, and everyone else sat down as well. Li Zhaoyi put on a cloak and glared at Shen Chuliu while crying, "She killed my child. Your Majesty, please help me."
The Queen tapped the table lightly and said, "I asked you to speak up. Can crying solve the problem?"
"Yes, the bracelet given by Concubine Jing was stuffed with medicine that can cause miscarriage. I wore it for a few days and then I had a miscarriage... The imperial physician can also prove it." Li Zhaoyi said.
Shen Chuliu's expression didn't change at all, he just looked at them.
The imperial physician stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, this bracelet... was indeed boiled in medicine. However..."
"Your Majesty, look, it's her, wuwuwu, she is jealous of me and probably harmed my child wuwu. Your Majesty..." Li Zhaoyi cried.
The imperial physician obviously hadn't finished his words.
Lady Yao bravely said, "Imperial Physician, but what?"
Seeing that the emperor did not stop him, the imperial physician said, "But this dose of medicine needs to be worn for a long time, at least three or four months before it can take effect."
"This is not surprising. Some people have poor physical constitutions, so the effect may take effect in such a short period of time." Concubine Qian Shu said.
The doctor was stunned, but he didn't dare to say no: "That's a possibility."
"emperor……"
"Okay." Qi Yixiu frowned: "Help her in, and you answer." Qi Yixiu pointed at Li Zhaoyi's maid.
The maid named Cuiluan quickly responded yes, and Li Zhaoyi was helped in unwillingly.
"I really can't live in peace during the Mid-Autumn Festival." The Queen sighed lightly: "Tell me what's going on."
“To answer your Majesty, our Zhaoyi…our Zhaoyi suddenly had abdominal pain, and when the imperial physician arrived, she had already…had a miscarriage…” Cui Luan knelt down, trembling with fear.
"Why do I feel like this girl is a bit naughty?" Rong Jieyu frowned: "You are not telling the truth, right?"
"Oh, you know that Concubine Rong stands on Concubine Jing's side, but you can't just ignore her, right? She's just a little girl, so of course she's afraid. How can she be so bold?" Concubine Qian Shu snorted.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, I am not lying. This is the truth." Cui Luan swallowed nervously.
"Can the imperial physician tell when this bracelet was boiled in medicine?" Shen Chuliu asked.
This is a gold bracelet. Since it has hollow patterns on it, maybe it can retain its medicinal properties?
The imperial physician hesitated: "I am not very knowledgeable, why don't you ask Imperial Physician Zhang to come? He is the best at this."
Qi Yixiu nodded and sent someone to invite them on the fourth day of the New Year.
People from the harem also arrived one after another.
Needless to say, those who saw Shen Chuliu beating people with their own eyes, and those who came later also heard people in front of them whisper about it.
So any newcomers who wanted to say something just shut up, as they couldn’t afford to offend them.
Soon, Doctor Zhang arrived.
Doctor Zhang placed the bracelet in an empty bowl, poured some water, and poured some medicine powder into it. After rubbing it for a while, he confirmed: "Your Majesty, this bracelet has just been boiled, and the medicine powder is still on the surface. And although this is a drug that can cause an abortion, if you really want to achieve an abortion, I'm afraid it will only work if you drink it."
Shen Chuliu smiled and said, "I feel relieved now. Has anyone seen Li Zhaoyi wearing the bracelet I gave her these days?"
No one spoke.
That is no.
"Your Majesty, Li Zhaoyi has slandered me wantonly, and I refuse to accept it."
"Please stand up, my beloved. I know you have been wronged, and I will give you justice." Qi Yixiu said.
Only then did Shen Chuliu stand up and sit down.
He glanced at Concubine Qian Shuliang coldly and mouthed two words: idiot.
Concubine Qian Shu understood and was about to stand up, but her maid pulled her back and her face turned red.
Qi Yixiu was amused and almost laughed out loud. He glared at Shen Chuliu.
Shen Chuliu pretended not to see.
Since it has been proven that the bracelet was freshly cooked, Shen Chuliu is no longer suspected. She gave it as a reward to Li Zhaoyi when she just revealed her pregnancy.
Since it has nothing to do with me, can't I just watch the show with peace of mind? "Since this has nothing to do with Li Zhaoyi's miscarriage, then what's going on with Li Zhaoyi?" Concubine Li asked.
"This, Empress Li Zhaoyi's illness was indeed caused by the medicine, but it was not this medicine." The previous imperial physician said hurriedly.
"Since Imperial Doctor Zhang is here, let him go and check on Li Zhaoyi again." Qi Yixiu said.
Doctor Zhang answered yes and went into the inner room.
Cuiluan didn't dare to speak since she heard what Doctor Zhang said. She was very scared. She had just come from the southwest and followed Li Zhaoyi. In fact, she didn't know anything.
"Your Majesty, Empress Dowager, from what I have observed about Concubine Li's current condition, I think she must have taken too much cold medicine. I wonder what Concubine Li took today?"
What did you use today? It's hard to say.
Today is Mid-Autumn Festival, and we eat quite a lot in a day.
