"Qiuhua, you know perfectly well it's fake, so why are you still so worried!"
Hearing Jiang Jingyue say that, Qiu Hua shook her head.
“My lady, I know that what you said about bleeding is false, but what the imperial physician said must be true! After all, this is the result that the imperial physician came to after taking the pulse.”
Qiu Hua's words made Jiang Jingyue burst into laughter.
"Qiuhua, don't worry, this is fake too. The baby in my belly is perfectly healthy and there's nothing wrong with it."
As soon as Jiang Jingyue finished speaking, Qiu Hua's eyes widened in disbelief.
She hadn't expected that pulse diagnosis could be faked. In that moment of stunned silence, Jiang Jingyue burst into laughter.
"Alright, you don't need to worry anymore. The pulse will return to normal in a few days. The little princess and the little prince are both healthy."
Qiu Hua finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Otherwise, when she heard what the imperial physician said, she was completely distraught. She was genuinely afraid that something might happen to her mistress and the baby in her womb.
No one knows better than her how difficult it has been for her mistress to get to where she is today. Back in the Jiang family, her mistress had never been happy.
Once inside the palace, the emperor treated her well, and she even had a child. Qiu Hua was overjoyed to see her mistress becoming happier day by day.
She couldn't imagine what would happen to her mistress if something went wrong with the baby in her womb.
Fortunately, what the imperial physician said turned out to be a false alarm.
"My lady, you really scared me to death! I was crying when I was outside. I was so scared!"
Seeing Qiu Hua like this, Jiang Jingyue couldn't help but want to laugh.
"You! You just can't handle things. I told you beforehand, and you still managed to scare yourself to tears. Only you would do that."
At this moment, Qiu Hua felt a little embarrassed. She hadn't expected that she would feel like crying when she thought about the suffering her master had endured in the past.
"Master, you're making fun of me! I was just worried! Otherwise, why would I cry? You know how strong I am usually."
Jiang Jingyue nodded, and then couldn't help but laugh.
Seeing Jiang Jingyue laugh, Qiu Hua couldn't help but laugh too. The two looked at each other and finally covered their mouths to laugh.
After laughing, Qiu Hua was still a little worried, after all, the imperial physician had said it was very serious.
"Your Majesty, are you sure there's nothing wrong? Then why would the imperial physician say that? He wouldn't make a mistake when taking your pulse!"
This is all thanks to the system, but this is something that definitely can't be told to Qiu Hua. Jiang Jingyue can keep this to herself.
So, Jiang Jingyue looked at Qiu Hua and began to deceive her with a serious expression.
"Qiuhua, do you still remember when we were still in the Jiang family, I would disappear whenever I was sad?"
Qiu Hua nodded immediately. This was the thing that impressed her the most. Every time her master was bullied by the eldest young master and the second young lady, she would hide away.
During that time, she searched for people every day, but what was most despairing was that she couldn't find them at all.
She could only wait, because Jiang Jingyue would come out at night. Thinking back on this, Qiu Hua felt even more sorry for her mistress.
"My lord, how could I possibly forget this matter? But what does this have to do with your current pulse?"
Jiang Jingyue definitely had to nod.
"Of course it's related. When I went out, I was looking for an old Chinese medicine doctor to learn from, which is why you couldn't find me. The reason my pulse is like this now is because I pressed a few acupoints as that old Chinese medicine doctor told me."
After Jiang Jingyue explained it this way, Qiu Hua suddenly understood.
She really hadn't expected this reason, and for a moment she looked at Jiang Jingyue with a face full of surprise.
"Master, how are you so amazing? You can even do something like this. I really admire you."
Jiang Jingyue felt a little guilty after being praised like that, mainly because all of these things were made up by her.
"Qiuhua, are you relieved now? These acupoints won't last long after you press them; they'll recover in a few days."
Hearing that things would recover in a few days, Qiu Hua nodded, truly relieved.
At this moment, Qiu Hua also remembered the important matter. If she hadn't been so worried, she would have explained everything to Jiang Jingyue long ago.
"Your Majesty, what should we do next? Judging from the Emperor's expression, he seems to be preparing to investigate. Should we...?"
Qiu Hua gestured to Jiang Jingyue, who immediately understood what she meant and nodded.
"Since His Majesty wants to investigate, then we'll help him out by secretly leaking the evidence you found recently to him."
Qiu Hua hesitated when she thought about the evidence. The main reason was that the evidence they found pointed to Consort Xian as the culprit, but they all knew that.
The culprit behind those medicines in their palace was not Consort Xian; the real culprit was someone else.
"Your Majesty, the evidence is not yet complete. If it is leaked to the Emperor like this, won't the Emperor misunderstand?"
Jiang Jingyue knew, of course, that if she handed the evidence to Mo Yuhan like this, Mo Yuhan would definitely misunderstand.
This was exactly the effect she wanted. Since she couldn't find any connection between this matter and Zhao Furong, Jiang Jingyue decided to let Consort Xian reveal it herself.
"It's alright. If the Emperor misunderstands, let him misunderstand. Once the Emperor gets this evidence, he will definitely go to Consort Xian. We'll go with him then. I have a way to get Consort Xian to testify against the mastermind in person."
Upon hearing Jiang Jingyue's words, Qiu Hua's eyes lit up immediately.
"Master, do you really have a solution? What are you planning to do?"
Jiang Jingyue was still somewhat hesitant about what to do next.
"Qiuhua, go and find out again if Consort Xian has any secrets or weaknesses. If so, find out as soon as possible and come back to tell me."
Qiu Hua also knew that this matter had to be investigated thoroughly. If it wasn't investigated thoroughly, there would be no way to bring down Consort Xian, let alone bring down the Imperial Noble Consort behind her.
