Chapter 522: Pregnancy
Chapter 522: Pregnancy
Shuiyuexuan.
Chu Er applied medicine to Concubine Hao while shedding tears: "The Imperial Concubine is too overbearing. You just said a few words for Concubine Liang, but she ordered people to beat you like this..."
"Assisting the six palaces requires winning people over with virtue, not competing to see who has the harder fist. How could the Imperial Concubine do this..."
Noble Lady Hao hated her, but she knew that walls have ears, so she gritted her teeth and said, "Everyone in the palace knows that the Imperial Concubine is domineering, but she is the Imperial Concubine, what can I do to her?"
Chu Er wiped away her tears and said distressedly: "My young master suffered such an unprovoked disaster this time because of Concubine Liang."
"Empress Liang will not just let it go like this, right?"
Hao Guiren has always known that Concubine Liang is a good person. But Concubine Gui’s position is higher than Concubine Liang’s.
Against the Imperial Concubine, the Imperial Concubine Liang herself could hardly protect herself, so how could she vent her anger for her...
As the master and servant were talking, a young palace maid came in and reported, "My lord, Concubine Liang is here."
She has already offended the Imperial Concubine. If she doesn't maintain a good relationship with Concubine Liang, wouldn't it be easier for the Imperial Concubine to deal with her?
Concubine Hao hurriedly said, "Please come in!"
"Yes."
Concubine Liang was wearing a sky-blue palace dress without too many patterns, which looked simple and generous.
Only the cuffs and neckline are embroidered with wintersweet flowers with silk thread to avoid being too monotonous.
Seeing her, Concubine Hao immediately stood up and saluted: "Your Majesty, I pay my respects to Her Majesty Liangfei, Your Majesty..."
Concubine Liang quickly stepped forward and helped her up. There was a trace of guilt on her dignified and beautiful face: "Sister Hao, there is no need to be so polite."
"If it weren't for me today, you wouldn't have been slapped. It's because I'm useless and can't protect you..."
"Sister Hao, I'm sorry..."
Before this, Concubine Hao did feel a little uncomfortable. But Concubine Liang was one of the four concubines, and she actually condescended to come to Shuiyuexuan to apologize to her.
Concubine Hao fully felt the other party's sincerity and the importance he attached to her, and the slight unhappiness in her heart disappeared without a trace.
"What does it have to do with you that the imperial concubine is so domineering? Madam Liang Fei, please don't say that."
Concubine Liang took Concubine Hao's hand and sat down, saying gently: "Don't worry, sister Hao, you are doing this for me. I will never watch you suffer injustice."
"Because of what happened today, His Majesty has demoted the Imperial Concubine to a Concubine. She can't even protect herself now, so she won't have the time to bully you anymore."
After returning, Concubine Hao was treating her wounds and did not go out. She was not aware of what happened in Yongshou Palace later.
After hearing what Concubine Liang said, she was stunned for a moment: "...Wha, what?"
"The Imperial Concubine has been demoted to a Concubine Shu?!"
Concubine Liang nodded and looked at her with an extremely gentle look: "Sister, the grievance you suffered today was not in vain."
Concubine Hao knows her own limitations. Even if she has been favored by His Majesty a few more times, there are so many noble ladies in the palace. What does she count for?
She had offended the man in Yongshou Palace, and no one else would stand up for her. Only Concubine Liang was still thinking about her.
The Imperial Concubine had always been the most favored in the six palaces, and wanted His Majesty to demote her. Noble Lady Hao simply couldn't imagine how much effort Concubine Liang had put into this.
Empress Liang Fei...will never let down anyone who stands up for her.
Ruoli continued, "You may not know, Lady Hao, but now the power of the six palaces has returned to our queen's hands."
"I will remember your loyalty to you. From now on, no one in the palace will bully you!"
Concubine Hao cried with joy: "Good! Good!"
"Shu Fei is arrogant and domineering. She is not worthy of being the head of all concubines. It's better for her to be demoted!"
"I believe that under the management of the Good Concubine and the Virtuous Concubine, the harem will be completely renewed, and there will never be another incident of concubines fighting against each other!"
Looking at Concubine Hao's swollen cheeks, Concubine Liang said distressedly, "Okay, let's not talk about this for now."
"I have invited a royal doctor to treat my sister's wound first."
The imperial physician's surname was "Xu", and he was the one that Concubine Liang was used to using on a daily basis.
Doctor Xu stepped forward and bowed, then checked the injuries on Concubine Hao's face. After a moment, he said, "Your face has been treated and ointment has been applied. You just need to rest for a while and it will be fine."
Concubine Hao asked anxiously, "Will my appearance be affected?"
Doctor Xu shook his head and said, "Please rest assured, young lady. The bruises on your face only look harmless and will be gone once they disappear."
Concubine Hao breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good..."
During this period of time, she couldn't go out to see people, let alone sleep with the emperor...
Thinking of this, Concubine Hao's hatred for Concubine Shu increased even more!
Concubine Liang's eyes darkened, and she said in a gentle voice, "Since Doctor Xu has already made this trip, please check Sister Hao's pulse."
"Wei Chen obeys your orders."
Concubine Hao extended her wrist and said, "Thank you, Concubine Liang, for your concern."
"Then there is Dr. Lao Xu."
Doctor Xu said, "My lady, you are too kind."
He placed his hand on Concubine Hao's wrist, and then a look of surprise flashed across his eyes!
Doctor Xu seemed to want to confirm something, his expression suddenly became serious, and he carefully felt Concubine Hao's pulse.
Seeing Doctor Xu's expression, Concubine Hao also became nervous for some reason: "Doctor Xu, what's wrong?"
"But what's wrong with my body?"
Chu Er stood beside Concubine Hao, her eyes full of worry.
Concubine Liang asked with concern: "Doctor Xu, what's wrong with Sister Hao's body?"
"If you have something to say, just say it. Even if you need rare medicinal herbs, I can find a way."
Concubine Hao felt warmed at heart when she heard this.
Finally, Doctor Xu confirmed Concubine Hao's pulse and looked at her with a completely different look. He stood up, bowed and said respectfully, "Congratulations, Concubine Hao! Congratulations, Concubine Hao!"
"You have been pregnant for more than a month, but the pregnancy is still early. I have just carefully confirmed it."
Concubine Hao was completely stunned.
Chu Er's face was full of disbelief.
Concubine Hao is young and in good health. She has been favored so many times that it is only a matter of time before she becomes pregnant.
Although Concubine Liang was prepared for this, when she heard the news, a hint of surprise still flashed in her eyes.
After a long time, Concubine Hao finally reacted. She lowered her head and touched her belly, and asked happily, "Really?!"
"I am really pregnant with the royal heir?!"
Doctor Xu smiled and said, "Although I am not talented, I will never make a mistake in taking a pulse."
Chu Er immediately said, "Congratulations, young master! Congratulations, young master!"
"Wow, wow, wow... My young lady is finally going to make it! This is a happy event, I can't cry."
Concubine Liang held Concubine Hao's hand and looked at her with a smile: "Chu'er is right."
