"No, no need to check. I'm not sick. No need to check."
"Xingnan, be obedient. The imperial physician will just check your pulse and you'll be fine soon."
As he was talking, Daji was about to pull her quilt, but she suddenly shouted hysterically:
"All of you go out. I'm not sick. There's no need to check."
Yongping, who was standing aside, saw this and came to her bedside, comforting her softly:
"Xingnan, if we don't let them investigate, how can we prove that what we said is true? But don't worry, this matter will not be known to anyone except these people in the room. Be good and stretch out your hand."
Xingnan hid his hand in the quilt and refused to take it out.
Her look reminded Leng Yu of what Luo Lan had said, and Xiao Ningzi's innocent expression just now. It seemed that the pregnancy news was indeed fake?
Thinking of this, he covered his mouth and coughed lightly, then said seriously:
"Since Princess Xingnan is unwilling to allow the imperial physician to examine her pulse, I will follow Princess Yongping's wishes and execute Xiao Ningzi at 3:15 PM today. To prevent me from showing favoritism, I ask Princess Yongping to bring Princess Xingnan and Prince Daji to personally oversee the execution."
After leaving these words, he turned to Doctor Wang:
"Thank you, Doctor Wang. Please go back first!"
Princess Xingnan's mind kept switching the scene of Xiao Ningzi being beheaded, and she immediately wailed in pain.
"No, you can't kill him."
Yongping hurried forward and tried to cover her mouth, but Xingnan dodged him. She scolded him again:
"Xingnan, beheading him is already a light punishment. He deserves the death penalty for his crimes. The Empress knows that you have a kind heart, but you cannot speak for a sinner like him!"
"That's not the case. That's not the case. He's not wrong. I'm sorry. It's my fault. I shouldn't have lied to you. It's my fault. I'm not pregnant at all. I just wanted to get back at him. This has nothing to do with him."
When Xingnan said this, everyone present was stunned. Leng Yu looked at her with a serious expression.
"Princess Xingnan, this is no joke. You can't lie to protect Xiao Ningzi, right?"
Xingnan bit his lips tightly and stretched out his arms.
"If you don't believe me, ask the imperial physician to check my pulse. I'm really not pregnant. I just lied to the eldest princess for fun, but she took it seriously. Brother Ning really didn't bully me. He really didn't."
Her words made Yongping's face turn pale with anger, Daji looked embarrassed, and Leng Yu gestured to Doctor Wang:
"To prove Lord Ning's innocence, please ask Imperial Physician Wang to examine Princess Xingnan's pulse."
