Chapter 738 How could Sister Liangfei harm her?
"I'm here to save you."
Hearing Shen Zhinian say this slowly and calmly, Concubine Hao just found it ridiculous.
Under the care of her sister Concubine Liang, she and her child were fine, just waiting for the right time to give birth to a little prince safely.
Do you need help from Concubine Chen?
Concubine Chen has four princes, and I’m afraid she doesn’t know how to be cautious. I wonder if she will give birth to a prince.
After all, the more princes there are in the palace, the less valuable the Fourth Prince becomes.
Of course, even if Concubine Hao thought so in her heart, she didn't dare to say it out loud.
And she didn't know what Concubine Chen's purpose was today.
Concubine Chen has absolute power in the harem. Isn't it easy to deal with her?
Concubine Hao is really scared now, so she can only calm the other person down first, hoping that someone will notice that something is wrong with Shuiyuexuan, and then notify Sister Liangfei to come and rescue her.
"Your Highness, Concubine Chen is joking."
Concubine Hao smiled and said, "I am not in any danger, so why should I trouble you, Your Majesty?"
"It's getting late. Your Majesty's health is important. You should go back and rest."
Shen Zhinian understood that even though she had a lot of control over the harem, it was still risky to come to Shuiyuexuan in person. If she was discovered, it would be hard to justify.
However, even if such an important matter was told by her in person, Concubine Hao might not believe it, let alone if it was told by a palace maid.
Shen Zhinian had no choice but to take the risk.
She didn't waste time talking to Concubine Hao, and got straight to the point and asked, "You've grown up so big, you must have seen some pregnant women. But have you ever seen a pregnant woman like you, who is skinny and has only a bulging belly?"
"Have you ever looked in the mirror and seen how horrible you look now?"
"Noble Sun was pregnant at about the same time as you, so why is she so healthy that she can even go for a walk in the Imperial Garden every day, but you can't even get out of bed?"
"Lady Hao, do you really think that all this is because you had a miscarriage?"
Concubine Hao bit her lip, not knowing what she was thinking.
No one knows your physical condition better than yourself.
In the past few months, Concubine Hao has been lying in bed to take care of her pregnancy. She has noticed that her body is getting weaker day by day...
She also had doubts in her heart.
But Doctor Xu said that her health was not good to begin with, and she was frightened by Concubine Wu's magic trick last time, which caused her miscarriage.
Also, when he went to the Zhongcui Palace to pay homage to the emperor, he was provoked by the words of Concubine Sun.
Once the baby is born and she takes good care of it, her health will gradually get better.
Doctor Xu is the imperial physician trusted by Concubine Liang. How could he possibly harm her?
On the contrary, it was Concubine Chen who came to her and said these words for no apparent reason, which showed that she had ill intentions!
But Concubine Hao didn't dare to offend Shen Zhinian, so she could only slow down her tone and say, "It's my own health that's not doing well. Thank you, Concubine Chen, for your concern."
"I am deeply grateful for your concern, Her Majesty the Imperial Concubine Chen!"
Seeing that Concubine Hao was pretending to be submissive, little Zhouzi was speechless.
Why is Concubine Hao so stubborn?
If she wasn't needed to deal with Concubine Liang, who would want to save her!
Shen Zhinian knew that it was not easy to make Concubine Hao believe that Concubine Liang was a venomous snake. She had expected the current situation and was not annoyed.
Shen Zhinian smiled and continued, "I asked someone to check the records of Doctor Xu's pulse diagnosis for you, as well as the pregnancy-maintaining medicine you have been taking."
"I actually discovered a shocking secret...I wonder if Lady Hao is interested in listening to it?"
There was a deep light in her beautiful eyes, but her expression was nonchalant, which easily aroused people's curiosity.
Shen Zhinian didn't believe that Concubine Hao really had no doubts about her own health.
Or did her trust in Concubine Liang outweigh the doubts in her heart?
This was also a test of Concubine Hao by Shen Zhinian, and the result determined what she should say next.
Noble Lady Hao knew that she shouldn't have believed Concubine Chen. The best thing to do was to end the topic and find a way to get Concubine Chen to leave quickly.
But for some reason, when seeing Shen Zhinian's serious look, all that came to Hao Guiren's mind were the words she had just said.
Yes, before she got pregnant, her health was not bad at all.
Why did she become so weak after just one miscarriage? It was as if she had been sucked dry by the fetus...
She was about the same age as Concubine Sun. Concubine Sun was well-fed with plump cheeks and could walk briskly despite her big belly.
Why couldn't she even get out of bed, let alone take a walk?
Could it be... Could it be that there really was something wrong with her body that she wasn't aware of?
Do not!
If there was a problem, Doctor Xu would definitely tell her. Why would he tell her again and again that she was not in the way?
If she suspected Doctor Xu, wouldn't that be the same as suspecting Sister Concubine Liang?
Sister Liang Fei was so good to her, yet she believed the slander of Concubine Chen and became suspicious of Sister Liang Fei. Isn't she too heartless?
Concubine Hao has always been grateful and would never do anything ungrateful.
But... thinking this in her heart, Concubine Hao still looked at Shen Zhinian and asked that question as if possessed by a ghost: "...What secret?"
Looking at Concubine Hao's expression, Shen Zhinian knew that her trust in Concubine Liang was not completely unbreakable.
Perhaps, it was not that Concubine Hao did not trust Concubine Liang enough, but that she did have some doubts about her own physical condition.
Then the next thing will be easy.
Time was running out, so Shen Zhinian didn't keep it a secret: "...The pulse diagnosis and the pregnancy-preserving drugs you used all show that Doctor Xu was taking a risk, using a method that would consume the mother's Qi and blood, disregarding your safety, to nourish the fetus."
"To put it simply... in his eyes, you are not a person, but just a vessel to nourish the fetus, a tool to provide nutrients to the fetus."
"If this continues for a long time, the result will be that... the fetus will develop well, but you will be like a withered flower, drying up little by little."
"Until... its usefulness is exhausted and it reaches the end of its life."
Concubine Hao's pupils suddenly shrank, and she subconsciously said, "Impossible!"
"Doctor Xu, what's your reason for doing this?"
"My Lady Concubine Chen, please stop exaggerating!"
Although Concubine Hao said this, she felt a little lacking in confidence.
Because she herself discovered that her physical condition was really just like what Concubine Chen said...
But Concubine Hao still didn't want to believe it.
How could Doctor Xu and Concubine Liang harm her?
It must be that Concubine Chen saw that her health was not good, so she carefully made up such a lie in order to make her fall out with Sister Concubine Liang.
She can't be fooled!
"Don't you know Doctor Xu's reasons?"
Shen Zhinian laughed mockingly: "I guess he did this because you couldn't keep your child after your last miscarriage."
