Chapter 77 The Man Behind the Scenes



Emperor Yongzheng frowned and asked in a deep voice, "What effect does this secret medicine have on the body of the person who takes it?"

“Normally, the impact should be minimal,” Doctor Yan replied immediately.

After a moment's thought, Doctor Yan added, "This secret medicine was originally intended for young concubines to use to frame other concubines. Young concubines will continue to vie for the emperor's favor."

Therefore, the impact is not significant. When the miscarriage occurs around three months post-miscarriage, it will be similar to a normal miscarriage. Afterwards, you simply need to have your pulse checked and prescribed medication by a doctor, following the typical post-miscarriage pulse diagnosis.

"This kind of secret medicine is usually taken by the person themselves to frame others. If you hadn't mentioned it, I would never have imagined that this kind of secret medicine could actually be given to someone else directly to frame them."

"Tsk tsk, that's really vicious. Luckily, this kind of secret medicine has been lost. So, doctors should really refrain from developing such strange medicines. Some doctors are just bored and always like to develop weird and wonderful drugs; it's truly a sin." Doctor Yan couldn't help but grumble again.

The wind is gentle and the moon is bright.

"Your Majesty means that it will take a month to find out whether I have taken the secret medicine." After the Empress finished speaking, her eyebrows were almost furrowed together.

Emperor Yongzheng frowned and said in a deep voice, "The effects of this secret medicine are indeed as Physician Sun said, enough to fool even the most sham doctors. We can only tell the difference after three months of pregnancy, to see if the pregnancy will end automatically."

The Empress's eyes flashed with coldness as she said, "If someone really gave me such a secret medicine, then their intentions are truly despicable."

Yongzheng nodded and said in a deep voice, "That's right. If it's true, the person's intentions are truly malicious."

After thinking for a while, the Empress said, "In that case, Your Majesty, why don't you let everyone know that I am two months pregnant with your imperial child?"

"Your Majesty, not only have you not punished me, but you are overjoyed and eagerly anticipating this child. If that's the case, those who want to frame me will truly be disappointed." The Empress paused, frowned, and continued.

After pondering for a moment, Yongzheng said in a deep voice, "Then for the next few days, I will have Imperial Physician Sun and Imperial Physician Wang come over every day to check your pulse."

"A few days later, I will have the entire Imperial Medical Academy come to check your pulse." Yongzheng paused for a moment, then continued.

The Empress's brow twitched slightly as she spoke, "In this way, the entire court and the harem will know that I am pregnant with the Emperor's child."

Yongzheng nodded and said nothing more.

Whether the Empress was given a secret drug to fake her pregnancy or she was truly pregnant with the Emperor's child, this time it remains to be seen.

This will inevitably cause a great upheaval in the imperial court and harem, and at that time, some monsters and demons will also have to jump out.

Not only can I take this opportunity to clean up the mess, but I can also use it to make some backup plans.

After the Emperor left Feng Qingyueming, the Empress couldn't help but carefully touch her belly and sigh, "Although I also wish it were true, the truth is that there are more falsehoods than reality."

Thinking of this, the Empress couldn't help but frown again. The person behind this was truly vicious.

If it weren't for myself and the Emperor...

Would I now be facing the grave crime of deceiving the emperor?

But something seems a little strange, considering I'm not young anymore!

Why is the other party so certain that this secret medicine will definitely work for them?

Could it be that the person behind the scenes was gambling on the wrath of an emperor?

But now it's not the time when the emperor first ascended the throne. Look at his pulse, which showed he was more than two months pregnant with the dragon's child; it's only been two days.

The emperor had already discovered that he might have been given a secret drug, and he even found out that this kind of drug could be detected after three months of pregnancy.

Furthermore, the emperor's control over the harem is extraordinary. Given his temperament, after a fit of rage, he would probably massacre the harem.

As for whether or not he should be punished for deceiving the emperor?

I'm already this old!

I still think the Emperor will definitely doubt the authenticity of the imperial fetus first.

"Your Majesty the Empress, Your Majesty the Empress."

Just as the Empress was thinking this, she heard Granny Chun's voice.

The Empress, regaining her composure, asked, "Granny Chun, what is it?"

Granny Chun bowed and said, "Your Majesty, I have thoroughly investigated the matter you asked me to investigate before, but strangely, I have not found any traitors among our Feng Qing Yue Ming."

The Empress waved her hand and said, "This matter is probably not that simple. Just keep an eye on it."

"Yes, Your Majesty," Chun Mama replied solemnly.

Over the next few days, the Empress summoned Imperial Physician Sun and Imperial Physician Wang to check on her pulse every day.

Suddenly, the entire harem was filled with restless activity.

On this day, the Emperor personally arranged a journey under a clear sky and bright moon, and ordered Su Peisheng to personally invite all the imperial physicians on duty in the Imperial Hospital to come and check the Empress's pulse.

All the imperial physicians concluded that the Empress was more than two months pregnant with the Emperor's child.

The entire Fengqingyueming area was filled with congratulatory remarks: "Congratulations, Your Majesty! Congratulations, Your Majesty the Empress!"

"Congratulations, Your Majesty! Congratulations, Your Majesty the Empress!"

Soon after, the news that the Empress was pregnant with the Emperor's child spread throughout the palace.

Xiao Zengzi was one of the servants who heard the news.

At first, these servants were so surprised and overwhelmed by the news that they couldn't believe it was true.

They were afraid they had misheard, and only after confirming with each other did they dare to return to the palace to report.

Xiao Linzi continued to grab Xiao Zengzi's collar and hurriedly asked, "Which imperial physician gave the result of taking your pulse?"

"Reporting to Eunuch Lin, the entire Imperial Hospital went to check on Her Majesty the Empress's pulse, and the final result was that Her Majesty is more than two months pregnant with the Emperor's child," Zengzi hurriedly replied.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Linzi knew that it must be true.

So he immediately released Xiao Zengzi and ran towards the main hall of Qingyun Yaxuan.

At this moment, Ituma Shushu was handling some palace affairs.

She had only dealt with half of it when she saw Xiaolinzi running towards her at an unusually fast speed.

In the blink of an eye, Xiao Linzi had arrived in front of Ituma Shushu.

Before Ituma Shushu could react, Xiao Linzi immediately bowed and said, "Your Highness Consort Shu, the whole palace is now buzzing with the news that the Empress is two months pregnant with the Emperor's child."

"What did you say?" she asked involuntarily, standing up abruptly.

"Your Highness Consort Shu, the entire Imperial Hospital went to check on Her Majesty the Empress's pulse today, and the final result is that Her Majesty is more than two months pregnant with the Emperor's child," Xiao Linzi continued.
