Just before the guards were about to drag the man away, he struggled to break free and knelt in front of Qiao Yu:
"I, the head maid of Fangfei Pavilion, risk my life to ask the Imperial Concubine to save my Madam."
Ying San didn't understand what was happening in front of her, but she knew that protecting her master was her duty and mission, so she stepped forward and knocked the man unconscious without waiting for Qiao Yu to say anything.
"stop."
Qiao Yu was not happy with Ying San's self-willed decision, but she didn't say much. She just glanced at her coldly and then turned her attention to the palace maid kneeling on the ground:
"I remember you. You were Yun Ya's former personal maid, named..."
Seeing that the other party still remembered her, the palace maid excitedly said, "My servant Caizhi, the one I served before was none other than Commoner Jin."
When Xiao Dezi saw that Caizhi was the palace maid who had served the one who had harmed his own queen, he immediately cursed her with disgust, not to mention that both of her two masters had harmed the imperial concubine:.
"You shameless girl, you dare to ask my queen for help for that person from Fangfei Pavilion?!"
Caizhi's face turned pale, and Qiao Yu pretended to remember who that person was in Fangfei Pavilion. His face turned pale and fragile, which made people feel distressed.
Seeing his master like this, the protective Xiao Dezi would not allow Caizhi to continue. Just as he was about to take action, he saw Qiao Yu raise his hand to stop him:
"What happened to your queen? How can I save her?"
The maids who were serving beside them were so disappointed to see that their master had softened her heart again that they shouted in unison, "Madam!"
Caizhi then said tremblingly, "Concubine Qiu is over a month pregnant... Please help my concubine, Concubine."
"You said Concubine Qiu is pregnant?!"
The woman who had just been dignified and elegant now had a hoarse voice and took a step back unsteadily. Fortunately, Zhu'er was quick to support her.
Xiao Dezi was furious and kicked Caizhi to the ground. Caizhi was in great pain and sobbed while holding her abdomen.
"Your Majesty, please don't listen to this girl's nonsense. You can't be sure that this crazy woman is thinking of some vicious way to drive a wedge between you and the Emperor."
Zhu'er knew that Caizhi was arranged by her mistress to be with Concubine Qiu. Otherwise, how could a concubine who had fallen out of favor and was imprisoned expect to be served by palace maids? However, she did not know that Qiu Ziqian's pregnancy was also part of Qiao Yu's plan. She hurriedly whispered to comfort her:
"Your Majesty, what Xiao Dezi said is true. There is no imperial physician serving in Fangfei Pavilion. How can Caizhi, a mere maid, know whether Concubine Qiu is pregnant or has some other illness?"
Seeing that Qiao Yu ignored her, Zhu'er winked at Xiao Dezi and asked him to drag the man away quickly.
At this moment, Caizhi no longer cared about the pain and quickly shouted:
"Your Highness, I was specially selected by Concubine Yao to serve the Second Young Miss because I know some medical knowledge. You have been managing the Hua Mansion since you were a child, so I dare not lie."
Let this slave girl be one step faster:
"My Lady, please don't listen to her nonsense..."
How could Zhu'er, who grew up in Washington, not know that what Caizhi said might not be false? But that was why she wanted someone to drag Caizhi away immediately.
"We'll know if this is just a lie if we ask the imperial physician to take a look. Xiao Dezi, please ask the imperial physician Du to come over and tell him that I'm ill."
"yes."
The imperial concubine gave such an order obviously because she did not want to alarm the emperor. Xiao Dezi wiped the sweat from his forehead. His master and the emperor had come this far with great difficulty.
Harmful!
When Doctor Du heard that Qiao Yu was unwell, he quickly took the medicine box. Firstly, she was the favored imperial concubine, and secondly, she was Yun Jue's sister, so naturally he had to serve her attentively.
"Eunuch, isn't this the direction to the Lanchao Palace?"
Xiao Dezi trotted ahead with a look of anxiety on his face: "Oh, Master Du, please don't ask any more questions. Just come with me. The Queen is still waiting for us."
Doctor Du felt something was wrong but didn't ask any more questions. He quickened his pace.
Imperial Physician Jiang had just returned from the Cining Palace to check Ping's pulse when he saw the two men running in a panic, not knowing where they were going.
"Master Du, are you going?"
There was no time for greetings. Xiao Dezi was so anxious that he almost cried, "Master Du, please be kind."
Du Ziyi was not the type to put on airs. Seeing how anxious Xiao Dezi was, he felt that something must have happened to Qiao Yu. He was filled with worry and had no choice but to apologize to Doctor Jiang:
"The Imperial Concubine has summoned me. I will explain this to Lord Jiang in detail when I return. I will take my leave now."
When Doctor Jiang heard that it was Lan Chao Palace who summoned the imperial physician, he dared not stop him. He stroked his mustache and said anxiously, "Then Sir Du, please go quickly."
After both parties bowed and said goodbye, Imperial Physician Jiang looked at the direction they were going and realized something was wrong. He would go to the Lanchao Palace every day to check on the imperial concubine's pulse. Although the imperial concubine was not in good health and had a deficiency of qi and blood, she would get better if she was slowly nourished.
But Du Ziyi looked so anxious, that direction was...Fangfei Pavilion!!!
Thinking of this, Imperial Physician Jiang felt as if the sky was about to fall. Last month, the Emperor secretly ordered him to prescribe a sterilizing decoction for Concubine Qiu, and told him that if he told anyone about it, he would be killed.
Imperial Physician Jiang subconsciously touched his neck and felt a chill on his back. Even at his age, he still had to jog quickly towards the Yangxin Palace.
"Hua Yunlan, please let me go. I am pregnant with the heir of the royal family. Do you still want to murder the heir of the royal family?"
After listening to Caizhi's suggestion, Qiu Ziheng took the risk of letting her ask Qiao Yu for help. Although that woman would not save her, she was very happy just thinking about making that woman mad.
But the current situation doesn't seem like the other party is coming to save him, but rather wants to get rid of him as soon as possible.
Qiu Ziheng didn't expect that the other party would not even care about the royal heir, but she knew very well in her heart that even if Qiao Yu killed her and the child in her belly, that man would not blame her beloved at all, so she protected her belly so tightly.
