At this time, the sweat on Doctor Li's forehead gathered together and slid down his cheeks.
His voice trembled as he spoke, "Your Majesty, I have taken your Majesty's pulse. It shows that she is indeed suffering from a deficiency of Qi and blood, and there is no sign of poisoning or other suspicious pulse signs."
"But the Empress is bleeding from below, and the pulse signs of qi and blood deficiency after miscarriage are also correct. Perhaps it's because the month is short, so the pulse signs of pregnancy cannot be detected. But these symptoms are undoubtedly miscarriage." Doctor Li's voice was full of helplessness and bitterness.
Jun Zechen's dark eyes were filled with gloom and terror at this moment.
He suppressed his voice and said, "Come here and take a look at the rash on Concubine Chun Shu's body to see if it caused her miscarriage."
As he spoke, Jun Zechen reached out and took the stunned woman's hand out from under the quilt.
The series of red rashes on the fair skin look shocking and terrifying.
Doctor Li took a look and said hesitantly, "Your Majesty, this seems to be an allergic reaction?"
Miaoyun, who had been crying silently, finally calmed down at this time. She never thought that this palace dress would actually hurt her master!
Miaoyun lowered her head, hiding the cruel look in her eyes.
"Doctor Li, the master's skin is more delicate than others. This is the palace dress the master is wearing today. The master usually only wears brocade. Although the material of this palace dress is also worn by ordinary concubines, the master will feel uncomfortable wearing it. Doctor Li, would you like to take a look?" Miaoyun said with a sob.
Doctor Li quickly leaned over to smell the palace dress, then reached out and gently touched the fabric.
"There seems to be nothing wrong with this material, but it's certainly not as smooth as brocade. But even so, your rash shouldn't be this severe..."
Doctor Li frowned slightly and muttered to himself, with a hint of deep doubt in his eyes, his gaze wandering back and forth between the palace dress and Su Jingyao.
Then he reached out his hand and touched the embroidery pattern of the palace dress, rubbing his fingers on the embroidery repeatedly.
There was actually a very subtle tingling sensation.
Doctor Li's eyes widened, and he quickly said, "Your Majesty, the material of this palace dress doesn't seem to be a problem. It's just that the embroidery may have gotten something on it, and it's causing a stinging sensation when it comes into contact with your skin. Your Majesty's skin is already delicate, and you've worn this palace dress for such a long time, so this is why the rash has appeared."
When Jun Zechen heard Doctor Li's analysis, a surge of rage surged in his chest like a tide.
These women in the harem will do anything to win favor!
Jun Zechen's face was terribly gloomy, and he said in a cold voice: "Maybe you know what it is?"
"Your Majesty, this tingling sensation is quite similar to that of oleander sap, but also dieffenbachia and poinsettia have similar effects. I cannot yet pinpoint the exact sap that was used on the embroidery pattern."
"Did this juice cause Concubine Chunshu to have a miscarriage?" Jun Zechen continued to ask.
"Your Majesty, if this juice comes into contact with the skin, it will cause stinging, rashes, swelling, and other symptoms. If accidentally ingested, it can cause vomiting at best, or even coma at worst."
Doctor Li explained in detail.
"It was just skin contact, it shouldn't have caused your miscarriage."
"However, I have learned that Your Majesty wore her palace dress to attend the banquet after the Queen Mother's birthday banquet, and then stood on the high platform to watch the performance. Moreover, she fell afterwards. Your Majesty is less than two weeks pregnant, which is an extremely unstable period. In addition, Your Majesty had just given birth, so perhaps this is..."
Doctor Li spoke truthfully, his expression solemn and helpless.
Su Jingyao, whose eyes had always been empty as if they had lost all their luster, suddenly had tears bursting out of her dull eyes like a flood that broke through a dam and became uncontrollable.
She curled up her body, like a wounded little animal, and began to sob and cry, "Woo woo..."
The crying was so sad and heartbreaking.
When Jun Zechen heard her sad cry, he quickly turned his head to look over. Seeing her pitiful appearance, his heart sank suddenly.
Then he waved to the people around him and said in a low and majestic voice, "Everyone, step back."
After everyone left the bedroom, Jun Zechen took off his outer robe and got on the bed gently.
Then he held her in his arms. Su Jingyao sat at the root of his legs, and her two slender arms tightly hugged his neck.
Her whole body shrank into his arms like a weak vine.
"Your Majesty, it's all my fault. I clearly felt unwell a long time ago, and the baby in my belly was protesting, but his careless mother didn't pay attention, so he passed away..."
"I am not worthy of being his mother, wuwu..."
Su Jingyao cried and spoke intermittently.
When Jun Zechen heard her blame all the mistakes on him, the pain in his heart seemed to overwhelm him.
"It's not Yaoyao's fault. Yaoyao and I will have children in the future, and she will be reincarnated into Yaoyao's belly."
Jun Zechen lowered his head, and stroked the tears flowing freely on her cheeks with his slender fingers. His voice was gentle and soothing.
"Don't cry, I'm heartbroken."
"It's not him who will be the last one, Your Majesty, I feel so bad..."
Su Jingyao sobbed and her body trembled slightly.
Junze didn't know how to comfort her at this moment. He could only stroke her hair over and over again, and gently stroke her back again and again, trying to bring her comfort and support.
Until Miaoyun brought in the medicine that Doctor Li had ordered.
Jun Zechen took the medicine bowl and coaxed her softly, "Come, Yaoyao, drink the medicine."
Su Jingyao was tired of crying and drank the medicine in a daze.
This medicine has a calming effect. After Su Jingyao drank it, she fell asleep soon after.
After Jun Zechen slowly laid her flat on the bed, his face, which had been gentle and doting just a moment ago, instantly became extremely cold, as if it could condense frost.
He put on the black and gold dragon robe again and walked out of the bedroom.
There is never a moment of peace in this harem.
The poisonous juice that inexplicably appeared on the palace dress, the palace maid who inexplicably fell from the high platform of the Hall of Supreme Harmony, all of these things were linked together and were all aimed at Yaoyao.
How dare they?
There was a cold light in Jun Zechen's eyes, anger was burning in his heart, and a violent emotion that made him want to kill people was surging.
