Almost everyone knew about Concubine Xuan's request for pregnancy-inducing medicine, so how could the Emperor not know about it.
The key is that he can no longer give Concubine Xuan a child.
He didn't dare to face the woman looking at him with disappointment.
Halfway through, he quickly broke away from Concubine Xuan and said, "I still have official duties. I can't accompany you tonight. Let's move on another day."
After saying that, she broke away from Concubine Xuan's hand, turned around and left.
Even though Concubine Xuan grabbed the emperor's hand, she was still pulled away. She called the emperor several times, but the emperor still led the people away.
She couldn't believe that this person was already at the door, just a few steps away from getting into bed, and yet he was letting people go.
She was stunned in place for a long time.
"Mother...are you okay?" the maid stepped forward and asked.
Will Concubine Xuan be okay?
She dragged the emperor to get there like that. It was impossible for the emperor not to understand, but he still wanted to leave. Why?
Why?
She doesn't understand.
"Am I ugly?" she asked the palace maid in disbelief.
The palace maid shook her head, "It's not ugly, and it's beautiful."
Although she is not extremely beautiful, she is still a good-looking woman and cannot be considered ugly.
"Then why does the emperor avoid me like a snake and a scorpion?" Concubine Xuan asked in shock.
She saw that the emperor's panic expression just now was really escaping from herself.
The grievances that Concubine Xuan had been holding back these days were now even more aggrieved.
"Mother, let's go back to the house first. It's cold outside." The slave advised.
Concubine Xuan cried immediately.
Concubine Lan came to see her in the morning and saw that her eyes were red and her eyelids were swollen. She probably cried a lot last night.
Concubine Lan was curious, "What's wrong with you?"
Thinking of last night, she couldn't hold back her emotions, "The emperor almost went to bed last night and ran away. He seemed to be avoiding me."
Concubine Lan was surprised and even more curious. She also noticed that the emperor had a problem. She asked the imperial concubine, but she couldn't find anything useful. The emperor didn't go to the other concubines at all. She really didn't know the reason.
Concubine Lan stepped forward and asked, "What was the Emperor's reaction last night?"
When Concubine Xuan was asked about her sadness, she became even more sad and sobbed, "The emperor seems to be afraid of sleeping with me."
Concubine Lan raised her eyebrows, thinking of something, and became more and more curious.
"What did he say?" Lan Fei asked again.
"What else can I say? Go and deal with official business. He is now as if he has been living in the imperial study or Cheng'en Palace. No one in the palace knows that I drank the abortion pill, but the emperor actually treated me like this."
Concubine Lan was determined now.
"It's the end of the year, and I'm really busy, especially on the matter of cleaning up the remnants of the vassal state and taking over the vassal state. The ministers have different opinions. It's normal for the emperor to be busy." Concubine Lan said with a smile.
Concubine Xuan frowned, thought about it, and could only accept this result.
Concubine Lan repeated her old trick again, contaminating Concubine Xuan with some pollen, and then left Yilan Hall.
Before dinner time, the third prince had a red rash again. Concubine Xuan quickly sent someone to invite the emperor again and took the same medicine as last time.
After the emperor came, he looked at the red rash on the third prince's body and fell into deep thought. Then he looked at Concubine Xuan. She looked at him carefully and enthusiastically.
The emperor averted his eyes.
Doctor Fang came in at this time, took the third prince, checked around, and said immediately, "Your Majesty, the third prince has come into contact with something sensitive, I'm afraid it's in the house."
The emperor frowned and looked at Concubine Xuan, "Do you know what's going on?"
Concubine Xuan really didn't know, she was also at a loss, and said quickly, "Come here, quickly look for something in the house to harm the third prince."
However, Imperial Physician Fang smelled it keenly, looked at Concubine Xuan, and said, "This fragrance comes from the Empress."
Concubine Xuan frowned, touched her body, and smelled it. There was indeed some fragrance on her sleeves. She had a fruity scented sachet hanging on her body. Even if she smelled it, she didn't feel anything wrong.
Doctor Fang stepped forward and smelled it carefully.
"The empress is wearing fragrant powder extracted from three types of flowers. It is the raw material used to make fragrant powder. However, it should not be smelled by young children. Children under one year old are the most frail and should not touch anything that can easily cause rheumatism. Especially unextracted floral raw materials are the most dangerous." Dr. Fang said extremely seriously.
As he spoke, he deliberately held the third prince farther away, his movements extremely suggestive.
Concubine Xuan was confused. She always only wore sachets with the scent of Limuzi fruit. It was precisely because of this sachet that the third prince liked to be close to her so much, but she did not use floral scents.
The emperor looked at Concubine Xuan with a gloomy look, and he decided that she was using the child to pamper her.
"Concubine Xuan, I am very disappointed in you." The emperor said coldly,
The emperor's words made Concubine Xuan panic. She hurriedly knelt down and wanted to explain, but the emperor took two steps back and said coldly, "Although the child is not your biological child, I can't stand it when you treat the child like this."
"Your Majesty, I don't have any concubines." Concubine Xuan was anxious.
"The evidence is conclusive, you still dare to say there is no evidence?" the emperor shouted angrily.
Concubine Xuan was so frightened that she shrank and did not dare to look at the emperor.
She didn't like this son, but she really didn't do that.
Thinking of Concubine Lan's enthusiasm in the past two days, she realized that she might have been tricked, and immediately knelt forward, "Your Majesty, it's not my concubine, it's Concubine Lan, she did it."
"Why did Concubine Lan do this?" The emperor asked through gritted teeth, wanting to see how else she could make it up.
Concubine Xuan was speechless for a moment, she didn't know.
"It must have been the instigation of the imperial concubine. She wanted to murder the third prince and let him die." This was the only thing that Concubine Xuan could think of, and the more she thought about it, the more likely it became.
When the emperor heard this, he closed his eyes in disappointment.
"Concubine Xuan, I always thought you were simple-minded, but I didn't expect that you would say anything in order to escape guilt. Just now you said it was Concubine Lan, and now you said it was Concubine Huang, why didn't you say it was me? "
"I don't dare, I have no reason to hurt the third prince!"
"You will do whatever it takes to invite favors!" the emperor shouted.
Concubine Xuan was stunned, "Does the emperor think so of my concubine?" Concubine Xuan was sad. She was thinking about giving birth to a child for the emperor, but the emperor felt that she had ulterior motives.
If you have any intention, you just want to have a child.
"Take the third prince out first. Concubine Xuan has no loving heart and is not suitable to raise a prince." After the emperor finished speaking coldly, he led others to take the child away.
Jin Xin was competing with Hong'er when she heard that the emperor was coming.
He immediately said to Hong'er in a cold voice, "Since you want your wet nurse so much, then you can leave. I think this is the end of our fate as mother and son."
Hong'er was nervous when he heard this and immediately raised his eyes, "Concubine, do you not want Hong'er anymore?"
"It's not that the mother-in-law doesn't want you, it's that the mother-in-law thinks that you don't need the mother-in-law. I won't talk about the pain of giving birth to you. After all, I grew up with you, but I can't compare to a wet nurse. The mother-in-law feels that we Not suitable for mother and son.”
After that, he was sent out and thrown into the side hall to think clearly.
It's been three days, and he's still fighting. You could say he's grateful, but the kindness is not to him. Call him ungrateful. He's not letting go, but he's fighting for the wet nurse.
Then don't let him get used to it. Let him know that the wet nurse usually gives him nothing more than a mouthful of milk.
