Chapter 692: Concubine Hao had another miscarriage (for [Book Friend Kitten])
Concubine Hao touched her belly, looked at Shen Zhinian and said, "My Lady Concubine Chen, this may not be appropriate, right?"
"The power to assist in the management of the six palaces was granted to Concubine Liang by His Majesty. For so long, Concubine Liang has been working diligently and has never made any mistakes."
"If you are going to take away Lady Liang's palace power just because you have been promoted to Imperial Concubine, it would be disheartening..."
Concubine Hao had pale cheeks, a thin body, and a bulging belly. She looked like she was not in good health.
The concubines sitting next to her wished they could stay away from her, for fear that if anything happened to her or the royal heir, it would be blamed on them.
Hearing what Concubine Hao said, everyone looked at her in surprise.
Concubine Chen is now the head of the harem, and Concubine Hao dared to talk to her like this? She is so bold!
She wouldn't really think that because she was pregnant with the royal heir, Concubine Chen wouldn't dare do anything to her, right?
That's a child, not a get-out-of-jail-free card...
Not right either.
There is indeed not much difference between the royal heir and the golden medal of immunity from death. No wonder Concubine Hao became bolder.
Those palace concubines who had received favors from Concubine Liang looked at Concubine Hao with admiration.
They are useless and dare not go against Concubine Chen for Concubine Liang.
Concubine Hao is really grateful!
They are really ashamed.
Concubine Hao seems to have always had this kind of personality.
Back when Liu was still a noble concubine, she was slapped in the face by Liu's order because she spoke up for Concubine Liang. She really knew how to repay a favor!
It was worthy of Concubine Liang to treat her like her own sister.
Shen Zhinian glanced at Concubine Hao with a half-smile.
I'm afraid that one day she will be sold out by Concubine Liang and she will have to help her count money.
Before Shen Zhinian could speak, Concubine Sun puffed out her belly and raised her eyebrows at Concubine Hao: "What are you talking about, Concubine Hao?"
"First of all, it was Zhang Changzai who proposed this. Concubine Chen never said that Concubine Liang would no longer assist in managing the six palaces."
"Even if you are dissatisfied with this, you should go to Zhang Changzai. What does Concubine Guan Chen want?"
"Every wrong has its perpetrator, every debt has its creditor. You can't even tell who to look for. Have you really become stupid for three years because of pregnancy?"
"Secondly, what Lady Zhang said makes sense. There is already the extremely noble Consort Chen in the palace, and you want the four concubines to help manage the six palaces. How can that be justified?"
"You don't accept it? If you don't accept it, just keep it to yourself! When you become the Imperial Concubine, it won't be too late to make decisions about the affairs of the harem."
snort!
Anyway, she and Concubine Hao were both pregnant, and their bellies were about the same size. Others were afraid of making Concubine Hao angry, but she was not afraid!
If Concubine Hao really wanted to act like a demon, she would just lie on the ground with her hands covering her belly. What would Concubine Hao and her men do to her?
"Puch-"
Someone couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Why didn't they realize before that Concubine Sun's words were so sharp?
If they didn't know that Concubine Hao had always been like this, it wouldn't be the first time she had done this for Concubine Liang. If they really agreed with Concubine Sun, she would have been stupid for three years after getting pregnant.
“…You! You!”
Concubine Hao pointed at Concubine Sun with a trembling finger, but she couldn't explain why for a long time.
She had not been feeling well since her last miscarriage. After spending such a long time in the bedroom nursing the baby, her complexion only now looked better than usual.
Being angered by Concubine Sun, Concubine Hao was so angry that her chest kept heaving and her stomach suddenly started to hurt.
Shen Zhinian and Concubine Liang's expressions changed.
The former did not want anything to happen to the heir on the day when all the palaces came to visit her. If so, not only would she be responsible, but Concubine Sun would also be blamed by Nangong Xuanyu.
The latter had always regarded the heir in Concubine Hao's belly as extremely important, and even asked Doctor Xu to use all his skills to keep Concubine Hao's child alive until now.
Seeing that Concubine Hao would give birth in a few months, Concubine Liang certainly didn't want to fail.
"Sister Sun, please stop talking."
Shen Zhinian looked at Concubine Sun with concern, then said, "Quickly call the imperial physician!"
Concubine Sun's expression suddenly changed.
As a pregnant woman, she had never had any bad thoughts about Concubine Hao's child. She was just angry that the other party didn't know right from wrong, so she couldn't help but say a few words.
The idea of lying on the ground just now was just a joke in her mind.
Would Concubine Hao really get into trouble just because of a few words?
Concubine Liang's eyes darkened, and she said, "My Lady Concubine Chen, Imperial Doctor Xu has been in charge of taking care of Concubine Hao throughout her pregnancy. Imperial Doctor Xu is the only one who knows all of her conditions."
Then Concubine Liang gave Ruoli a look and said, "Go to the Imperial Hospital and invite Doctor Xu."
Ruoli replied "yes" and left in a hurry.
At this moment, many people gathered around Concubine Hao.
Whether they were sincere or insincere, they said some caring words and asked gently.
As to whether these people really wish the best for Concubine Hao, or have other ideas, only they themselves know.
Zhang Changzai stood in the crowd, looking a little helpless.
After all, seriously speaking, this matter was all caused by her...
She looked at the people beside her blankly and murmured, "I, I really didn't mean it... I just admired Concubine Chen, so I said what I was thinking..."
However, at this moment, everyone's attention was focused on Concubine Hao and the royal heir, so no one had the time to pay attention to her.
Only one person glanced at Zhang Changzai inconspicuously, with a barely visible curve at the corner of his lips.
Soon, Doctor Xu was dragged by Ruoli and quickly ran to Zhongcui Palace.
"Oh my! Miss Ruoli, please slow down! I can hardly breathe..."
Ruoli said nervously: "Mrs. Hao's heir is very important, we can't wait!"
After entering the main hall, Doctor Xu breathed heavily and saluted to Shen Zhinian: "Your humble servant pays respect to the Emperor..."
Shen Zhinian waved his hand: "No need to be polite, just show it to Lady Hao."
Doctor Xu also knew that the matter was of great importance, so he said "yes" and walked to Concubine Hao to take her pulse.
In just a moment, Doctor Xu's heart sank!
Concubine Hao had another miscarriage!
He had managed to secure Concubine Hao's heir to the throne with great difficulty until now. If something happened at this critical juncture, wouldn't all his efforts be wasted?
On the way, Doctor Xu had already heard Ruoli's story.
Who living in the palace doesn't have eight hundred thoughts?
Doctor Xu naturally knew what to do.
Concubine Sun is Concubine Chen's person. If His Majesty knew that Concubine Hao was upset again because of Concubine Sun, he would definitely be furious! While blaming Concubine Sun, he might also vent his anger on Concubine Chen.
This is indeed a strategy that kills two birds with one stone!
However... Doctor Xu could not and did not dare to do so.
Because neither he nor Concubine Liang could guarantee that upon learning that there was a problem with Concubine Hao's heir, His Majesty would send other imperial physicians with better medical skills to treat Concubine Hao.
