While drinking tea, Lin Zan looked at Concubine De again. In the original book, Concubine De did not play an important role. All we knew was that she was the most special person in the harem.

On the surface, she seemed to be favored by the emperor, and no matter who was made the empress, Concubine De's position in the palace would remain unchanged.

But after getting to know her, Lin Zhan discovered that the Emperor did not seem to visit Concubine De's palace often, but this did not hinder Concubine De's status in the palace.

Perhaps it was really because Concubine De’s father and brother guarded the border and had made great military achievements.

It’s so good to have a powerful mother’s family, Lin Zan couldn’t help but think in her heart, while Jun Beiqi listened to her thoughts silently and raised his eyebrows.

The three of them tasted tea at their own leisure. When they finished, Concubine De stood up first and prepared to leave. But before leaving, she said to Lin Zhan, "While I am temporarily in charge of the affairs of the harem, if you want to investigate anything, go ahead. I will back you up, so you don't have to be afraid."

Such domineering words made Lin Zhan feel more at ease. He nodded vigorously and took a token from Concubine De's hand.

Finally, Concubine De left. Lin Zhan happily played with the token in her hand. Jun Beiqi said beside her, "I will also investigate this matter. If I find anything, I will let Xiao Haizi tell you."

"Then I would like to thank the prince first." As the saying goes, one more person means more ways, so Lin Zhan naturally would not refuse and said thank you.

On the other side, although Concubine Qin, who had just suffered a miscarriage, was weak, the anger on her face was unabated, and she smashed everything next to her to pieces.

"How could that bitch Liu Qiuchan have such a good life? I lost a child, but she was only confined to the palace. Why didn't the emperor punish her and take the life of that bitch?"

Concubine Qin stood there, unable to figure out what was going on. Finally, she put her hands on her belly, her face full of sadness, and tears flowed uncontrollably.

"Your Majesty, you just had a miscarriage, you can't cry!" Xing Yuan, who was standing next to her, hurried over and wiped the tears from the corners of Concubine Qin's eyes with a handkerchief.

Concubine Qin couldn't care less about all these things now. She was filled with resentment but had no place to vent. "It doesn't matter if I had a miscarriage. I still can't pull Liu Qiuchan down from the position of empress. Not only the position of empress, but also that bitch Concubine De, who actually let her take advantage and get the job of managing the harem."

The more she spoke, the angrier she became, and she threw all the supplements that others had given her onto the ground.

Just at this moment, the eunuch who was on guard outside came to report that the Emperor had come to see Concubine Qin.

Seeing the mess on the ground which was too late to clean up, Concubine Qin's mind raced so much that she fell to the ground, pretending to faint.

Just at this moment, the emperor stepped in and was shocked to see the miserable scene in the palace. "What on earth is going on?"

"Your Majesty, it's bad. Concubine Qin has fainted." Xing Yuan, who was standing next to him, said loudly and tactfully. The emperor naturally summoned the imperial physician to take Concubine Qin's pulse.

The imperial physician came in a hurry. Concubine Qin was lying motionless on the bed, and the emperor was standing beside her with a gloomy look on his face.

"Your Majesty, Concubine Qin just had a miscarriage. She is experiencing great emotional fluctuations and is physically weak, which is why she fainted. Concubine Qin cannot be stimulated during this period of time, otherwise it will be harmful to her body." The imperial physician said respectfully.

The emperor waved his hand wearily and let him go. At this time, Concubine Qin woke up slowly. Her eyes were red and tears were welling up in her sockets. She looked at the emperor with grievance and pity.

"Your Majesty, my heart aches when I think about the baby in my belly going far away before ever seeing this world!" Concubine Qin cried bitterly and pounded her belly with her hands, as if she was resentful of something.

How could the emperor not know the complaints in her heart, so he could only comfort her softly. "You should have a good rest. I will order the doctor to make you a prescription to replenish your body. Everything will be fine."

After saying this, the emperor turned and left, and Concubine Qin could not stop him.

Concubine Qin seemed to sense the emperor's indifference towards her for some reason, and she was wondering, could it be that the emperor was still concerned about the Qin family due to the Qinghe river embankment breach some time ago?

For a moment, the situation in the palace became extremely complicated.

A few days passed, and Lin Zan, holding the token of Concubine De, quietly investigated the miscarriage of Concubine Qin in the palace, but found nothing.

Today, Lin Zan came to the Imperial Hospital again, which was a rare occasion. Since the last smallpox incident, Lin Zan had not been to the Imperial Hospital for a long time.

When she came to the Imperial Hospital this time, Lin Zan had to pay a visit to the director according to the rules, so she went upstairs, but in a corner she saw Qin Fei's maid Xing Yuan, who was talking secretly with an imperial physician.

Seeing this scene, Lin Zhan subconsciously hid aside, wanting to hear clearly what the two people were talking about, but because she was too far away, she couldn't hear it clearly.

The two men exchanged a few words and then separated. Lin Zan keenly sensed that something was wrong, so he did not go to find the dean, but followed the imperial physician.

I have some impression of the imperial physician Lin Zan. His surname is Fu, and everyone calls him Imperial Physician Fu. What Imperial Physician Fu does every day in the palace is to check the pulse of the concubines in each palace.

When Lin Zhan thought of this, his mind was shaken and he murmured, "Doctor Fu, do you think he knows something?"

At this moment, someone suddenly patted Lin Zhan on the shoulder. Lin Zhan was startled and looked back, and found that it was his senior brother Qin Shang.

"Junior sister, what are you doing here?" Qin Shang followed Lin Zan's gaze and looked in the direction of Doctor Fu with some curiosity.

Doctor Fu, who heard the sound, seemed to look in this direction as well. Lin Zan was afraid that the matter would be exposed, so he quickly pulled Qin Shang's hand and ran to the side.

"Brother, I have something else to do. Let's talk another day." Lin Zan said to Qin Shang hastily and ran away.

However, he did not expect that when Lin Zan returned to the place where Doctor Fu had just stood, he found that Doctor Fu had already left the palace and returned home.

At this moment, Lin Zan had an idea and remembered that the Imperial Medical Service had a time book that recorded the whereabouts of imperial physicians in detail. If he wanted to know the whereabouts of Imperial Physician Fu, he just had to check the time book.

"I'm so smart!" Lin Zan chuckled, turned around and found Qin Shang, and asked him to go to the director's room to steal the time book for him.

At first, Qin Shang naturally disagreed, but Lin Zhan pulled out his trump card. "If you don't go, I will secretly tell Master that you treat other people's illnesses, and Master will definitely not forgive you."
