Chu Qingyao thought for a moment before agreeing to enter the palace. When she reached the palace, the Empress Dowager had already left, leaving only the Emperor with a sullen face. The moment he saw Chu Qingyao, he thought of Royal Feather Guard, whose life and death had been unknown last night, and angrily said, "Prince Zhi's Concubine, if you can't save my child, then I will plunder your Prince Zhi's Mansion."

Just as Chu Qingyao was about to step forward, she withdrew her foot. Her eyes were filled with a chilling intent, like the eternal ice on a snowy peak. She enunciated each word slowly, "This wangfei is unable to fulfill the emperor's request. I'm truly sorry, this wangfei will leave immediately."

"Someone, seize her for me." Prince Zhi's Concubine, I am willing to sacrifice my mother and son to punish your Prince Zhi's Mansion for this great sin. " Xuanyuan Xiao wholeheartedly wanted to find trouble with Prince Zhi's Mansion. If he invited her over, how could he let her go so easily?

Suddenly, someone shouted from outside. "Your majesty, please have this subject meet the empress. Why is her life so bitter!" Right Prime Minister Lin Yanan rushed in with tears streaming down his face, directly kneeling on the ground.

Behind the Right Premier, the Third Prince and Seventh Prince, as well as several officials who had good relations with Lin Fan, filed in. Xuanyuan Xiao was furious, "Who let you in? This is the empress's quarters, don't you know? "

"Father, this son and the seven royal brother s heard that the Queen was about to be born, so they came together to welcome our little royal brother together. As for the ministers after that, they all come from the same side. " Third Prince's words sounded as if they were true, but he'd long since heard that the empress had a hard time giving birth.

Seventh Prince also asked, "What happened to royal father? The room was so quiet. Was the little royal brother born? Bring it out for us to see. "

Xuanyuan Xiao clenched his teeth and waved, "Shut up." He then turned to look at the Minister of the Right. "Minister of the Right, what are you planning by leading your subjects into the empress's chambers?"

"Your Majesty, I was in the middle of a discussion with the ministers, and when I heard that the empress was in danger, everyone followed. Your Majesty, this subject would like to ask, how is the Empress? Children... Have you been born yet? "

Xuanyuan Xiao saw that Chu Qingyao was almost gone, and immediately shouted: "Prince Zhi's Concubine, come back for us." Chu Qingyao did not really think about leaving, she had come here for Lin Wanru, and not just for nothing.

As soon as the emperor shouted, she immediately returned with a respectful attitude. "What orders does the emperor have?"

Xuanyuan Xiao was furious, why bother asking, calling her back was to let her save the Queen, so he pointed at her and said, "Hurry and save the Queen."

Chu Qingyao sneered, "Just to save the empress?"

Xuanyuan Xiao was secretly annoyed, afraid that she would reveal the fact that he had given up on Lin Wanru, so he nodded, "Since I am already stillborn, I will try my best to save the Queen."

After receiving his promise, Chu Qingyao quickly ran towards her room, saying as she walked, "Third Prince, Seventh Prince, please guard the door for me."

"Don't worry imperial aunt, we will definitely not let anyone in." The Third Prince expressed his stance. Whether or not Chu Qingyao could see, the Seventh Prince also nodded.

At this time, the midwives were shouting loudly, "Not good, Prince Zhi's Concubine, come in quickly and take a look!"

Chu Qingyao rushed in, and the moment she entered, she could smell a thick stench of blood. While she ordered people to open up the windows to air the room, she checked on Lin Wanru's condition. The situation was not good. He had entered a state of shock. Furthermore, his pulse was getting weaker and weaker. He was about to lose his pulse. If he did not throw away his family property immediately, he could die at any moment.

"All of you, leave." She gave a shout that startled the four midwives.

"Princess, if there's anything you need help with, please feel free to tell us. We're all gone, who's going to be your assistant?" A midwife's lips trembled. She was afraid that she would be executed if she left the room.

"No need. If you don't leave, I'll have someone come in and drag you out." Chu Qingyao was enraged, if these people were to continue delaying, Lin Wanru would definitely die.

At this moment, all she saw was a critically ill patient who was about to be rescued. She had long forgotten about the injuries on her body. She reached out and pushed the four midwives out, slamming the door shut so that they were not allowed to be in the outer room.

Now that she was the only one left in the room, she took out some disinfectant to disinfect the room as she walked. She prepared everything as fast as she could and started the procedure of throwing away the womb.

Outside the room, the Right Premier was still kneeling on the ground, his heart aching. "Your majesty, why is the child in the empress's womb stillborn?" Was it poisoned? "

Imperial Physician Meng raised his eyebrows. He knew that there was a type of medicine that had no effect on adults after being given to pregnant women. However, it would cause children to have difficulty with their hair and shoulders. Even if he was born, he wouldn't be able to live for long.

The other ministers had also heard the emperor's words. They had been whispering to each other, but when the Right Premier finished, they all pricked up their ears and waited for the emperor to reply. Xuanyuan Xiao's eyes reddened, and his heart ached a little. No matter what, he was still a child who carried countless of his hopes. "Why are all of you looking at me? If we find out that it was indeed the medical Sect who did this, we wouldn't let them off even if we were to turn into a malicious ghost. " With just one sentence, he had pushed the blame for the death of the baby onto the medical Sect.

He had never expected anything from this child. He was currently acting, and the more he acted, the more realistic his image was. There was nothing more pleasing to him than hearing that the Emperor's son had been stillborn. If not for the location, he would have laughed towards the sky in celebration.

"Your majesty, how can the medical Sect bully my Tian Qiong?!" He was tearful and indignant. "Your majesty, this subject has already ordered people to visit famous doctors everywhere. No matter what price they have to pay, they must treat your majesty."

The grief in Xuanyuan Xiao's heart lessened, and just as he was about to say a few words of thanks, he saw the four midwives trembling. He frowned, "What are you guys doing out here, go help Prince Zhi's Concubine."

"Your majesty, it was the Prince Zhi's Concubine who chased us out, saying that we were in the way."

"Someone, drag these four people out and shoot them with your staff." Since they were stillborn, it meant that they were not able to deliver the babies. Everyone involved was to be put to death.

"Your majesty, spare me!" Some of the midwives kneeled down repeatedly, hoping to survive. Xuanyuan Xiao bellowed, "Drag him down and cover his mouth."

Seeing the guards coming over with a murderous intent, one of the guards suddenly rolled her eyes. A pungent smell came from below her. After being dragged away by the guards, the ground was left with a patch of yellow.

Xuanyuan Xiao's eyes darkened, in truth he did not trust Chu Qingyao at all, but at the moment, he hoped that Chu Qingyao would be able to cure Lin Wanru to death. This way, he would have a reason to convict the roasting king, and when the time comes, he would be able to capture his entire clan. No matter how he thought about it, he forgot that he and the roasting king were originally of the same origin.

Xuanyuan Xiao looked at Imperial Physician Meng, "Imperial Physician Meng, are you sure the child in the empress's womb is gone?"

The Imperial Physician Meng kneeled down, "Your Majesty, this subject will make no mistakes." The fetus was perfectly fine and already dead. How could he have made a diagnosis when his pulse was so obvious?

This caused the Right Premier to burst into tears again. Xuanyuan Xiao waved his hands in annoyance, "Shut up, the Empress is not dead yet! What are you howling for? " With resentment in his heart, the Right Premier quietly wiped away a few tears and looked down at the ground. Those who were envious of his daughter before she entered the palace were all secretly rejoicing now that she wasn't their daughter.

Two hours later, Chu Qingyao brought out a child that had been dead for a long time. Her face was ashen, it was obvious that she had suffocated to death in her stomach. She wrapped the child well, and no one noticed that the child was missing a hand, a congenital disability.

"Prince Zhi's Concubine, is the child still alive?" The Right Premier was the first to ask.

Chu Qingyao ignored him and said to the emperor, "Your majesty, the child lost its breath in his mother's womb. It took too long for him to be born, so he died from suffocation. Moreover, this child was poisoned, so it's hard for him to survive. " Since it was the Empress Dowager's old hag who did it, she drew it out.

After the Emperor heard this, he looked at Imperial Physician Meng with bloodshot eyes. "Meng Defeng, I want you to pay with your life for my son!"

The Imperial Physician Meng was even more disappointed as he said in a cold voice, "Your Majesty, please explain to me what this subject has done wrong."

Xuanyuan Xiao laughed coldly, his voice sounded like a ferocious ghost, "The empress's body has always been treated by an imperial physician, so why was it that no one noticed that she was poisoned? And today, the people in the empress dowager's palace haven't been able to see you for a long time. How do you explain that? "

Imperial Physician Meng's face was cold. "Back then, when the Empress was pregnant, she personally indicated for the Imperial Physician Zeng to take care of her body. This subject does not know of this. Furthermore, today, the empress dowager said early in the morning that her body was not feeling well, and sent for this subject. When this subject was at Changle Palace, no one from the empress dowager's palace went to seek medical help, and it was only when this subject was about to leave that I saw a palace maid.

Xuanyuan Xiao asked sternly, "Where is the palace maid that went to report to us?"

"Your servant is here." A little palace maid who had been crying in fear was pushed out shakily. "Your Majesty, Qianning Palace has already sent three groups of people to the empress dowager's side since morning. All of them were chased back, and in the end … In the end, if the Emperor didn't send someone over, the Imperial Physician Meng wouldn't be able to come. "

He didn't want the child in Lin Wanru's stomach to be born into one thing, but to be poisoned to death by that old thing, the empress dowager, was another matter altogether. It seemed like she was more vicious than him! However, he wanted to use this opportunity to get rid of the crown prince.

So he purposely shouted loudly at the palace maids, "Is it just a bluff? Could it be that the empress dowager could deliberately harm her own grandson? No matter what, he is of the same royal bloodline as the crown prince. "

He purposefully mentioned the Third Prince to remind everyone that the Emperor had once promised that the Queen's child would be made Crown Prince as soon as he was born. If anything happened to this child, the one most likely to make a move would be the Crown Prince.

The ministers were each more intelligent than the last. How could they not sense such an obvious hint? For a moment, the gaze he shot at the Third Prince became strange and unfathomable.

"What does Right Prime Minister mean by this? If you want to pour this dirty water on my head, I swear I will ask you for an explanation. "

Chu Qingyao brought the child to the Right Premier, and sarcastically handed the child over, "Minister, don't you want to hug your grandson?"

The Right Minister jumped up from the ground, furious. He pushed and said, "Take it away, quickly take this unlucky thing away."
