"No... She didn't faint just because she ate the food I prepared. How can you blame me?"
"But Your Majesty, since you are taking care of Concubine Zhu, you should know what she ate before and what she ate later, so as not to harm the fetus in her womb." The imperial physician explained.
Although Qiao Yuewen is not someone to be trifled with, as a doctor, I cannot tolerate Qiao Yuewen torturing a pregnant woman in this way.
The spicy salad Zhu Xianyue had eaten before contained chili peppers. Pregnant women can eat chili peppers, but the meal prepared by Qiao Yuewen for her also contained locust seeds. The combination of the two is harmful to the human body.
"How dare you teach me a lesson! I think you're really brave!"
Qiao Yuewen raised her hand to hit the doctor. She was arrogant and domineering, and never took anyone seriously.
But it would have been fine in the past, but now she had hurt the royal heir that Shen Jingyi had been longing for.
Shen Jingyi appeared in time, not only grabbed Qiao Yuewen's hand, but also slapped her in the face.
Qiao Yuewen was called into the wall and could not be dug out.
He doesn't hit women, but in his eyes, Qiao Yuewen is not a woman.
Although Qiao Yuewen has been practicing martial arts since she was a child, how can she be a match for a big man like Shen Jingyi?
She instantly felt that several of her bones were broken.
It seems that this time, Shen Jingyi is really angry.
In the past, Shen Jingyi would be more tolerant of Qiao Yuewen because her father and brother had served the country, but now, he hurt her deeply for Zhu Xianyue.
——Qiao Yuewen thinks so.
Little did they know that Shen Jingyi did this for Zhu Xianyue, but more importantly, for the imperial physician, for the people, and for the future of Ming Dynasty.
Water can carry a boat, but it can also capsize it. How could the imperial physician, who had dedicated decades of his life to the Ming Dynasty, be beaten by Qiao Yuewen? And for such a ridiculous reason?
Shen Jingyi snorted coldly and went in to see Zhu Xianyue.
"emperor……"
Zhu Xianyue woke up slowly and threw herself into Shen Jingyi's arms.
Shen Jingyi was stunned for a moment.
Among the concubines in the harem, no one except Zhu Xianyue would behave so inappropriately in public.
He should push Zhu Xianyue away and scold her.
but……
But Zhu Xianyue cried...
His tears soaked his dragon robe...
Even though she had a thousand faults, she still cried.
Shen Jingyi softened.
He wondered if it was because he was getting older that he felt more sorry for the little girl?
"Your Majesty, wuwuwu, I want to go to your side and accompany you, Your Majesty... I am afraid..."
She didn't blame Qiao Yuewen, she just said she was scared.
Gave face to the imperial concubine.
She has the virtues of a concubine of low rank.
Shen Jingyi understood that Zhu Xianyue was not unruly, but she knew when to follow the rules and when to be unrestrained.
She knew when to act and when to retreat. Although she was born a palace maid, some of her behaviors were more pleasing than those of concubines of noble birth.
"It was the Imperial Concubine's fault in this matter, but she did not mean to do so. I will demote her to the rank of noble lady and take away her power over the six palaces."
"Before you give birth, you will live in my throne room. I will watch over you day and night, and I will feel more at ease."
"I thank the Emperor on behalf of the children."
Qiao Yuewen had been a noble concubine for many years. If she were to suddenly become a noble lady, her food, clothing, and other necessities would be significantly reduced. Moreover, those who had been bullied by her in the past would take advantage of the opportunity to retaliate. Her life would not be easy.
What is more deadly than killing with one blow is cutting the flesh with a blunt knife.
Among the three concubines, the virtuous concubine Qin Shuqing is dead, the noble concubine Qiao Yuewen is not of any significance, and the only one left is the beautiful concubine Yelu Nanyin.
