Chapter 188 See you soon
Due to Concubine Hua's instructions this time, Cao Qinmo did not arrange any staff on her side throughout the process.
This has both advantages and disadvantages.
Because the imperial physician was not their person, and she and Concubine Hua did not have a say in the matter, Shen Meizhuang's guilt was not so severe.
It was also because Concubine Hua had recently shifted her target and was determined to deal with the Empress Dowager.
Despite this, Shen Meizhuang's chances of making a comeback in the future are slim, let alone being in charge of the palace again.
Yongzheng did not comment on the Empress Dowager's words.
"In that case, let's leave this matter to the Empress Dowager. Also, remove Shen from her position as a concubine."
"For the sake of the Empress Dowager, I will keep her as a noble lady. I hope the Empress Dowager can find out the truth soon."
The position of concubine was obtained because of a child, so naturally it will disappear because of the child.
Yongzheng had an expression that said, "I'll do whatever you say."
The Queen Mother wanted to refuse immediately.
Are you kidding me? She is already so old, why is she still concerned about investigating a case?
Isn't this what an emperor should do?
What do you mean by "for my sake"? I didn't say I would keep her status as a noble lady...
The Queen Mother secretly complained that this punishment was a difficult one.
Logically speaking, since Shen Meizhuang was accused of faking pregnancy to win favor, she shouldn't be demoted by just one level.
But the emperor said that he did it for her sake.
At that time, even if there are rumors in the outside world, people will say that the emperor did not punish Shen Meizhuang because the empress dowager stopped him.
He was a very filial person, but she herself became an old woman who used the title of Queen Mother to shield others at will.
The Queen Mother had a toothache and thought that it would be better if the same thing happened to Concubine Chen.
By then she will definitely demote her to the lowest position and reduce her to a commoner!
Then she was imprisoned in the cold palace.
In this way, she will become alienated from the emperor, and over time the feelings for him will naturally disappear.
Yongzheng didn't know that his mother was planning to target his wife.
He then stood up and prepared to leave.
But before leaving, he remembered something and said to Concubine Hua:
"From now on, you will be in charge of the palace. I am at ease leaving it to you."
Hua Fei, who had been in a trance, slowly raised her head.
Looking at the tall and handsome man in front of her, her hatred for the Queen Mother even diminished a lot.
Love brain!
After all, she wanted a child, a child of his!
There was a flash of emotion in Hua Fei's eyes.
Shen Meizhuang over there couldn't hold on any longer and her eyes rolled back as she fainted.
Frightened, Zhen Huan quickly went to support her.
As the two of them touched, he accidentally touched the hairpin on her head.
The golden hairpin specially bestowed by the Queen Mother fell to the ground.
There was a crisp "click" sound.
The Queen Mother felt extremely irritated when she saw this scene.
As a result, he began to dislike Shen Meizhuang even more.
After the emperor left, she gave a direct order that Shen Meizhuang be confined to Xianyue Pavilion and not allowed to leave until the truth was found out.
Then he walked out.
I feel like she shouldn't have come today. Not only did she lose her eldest grandson, but she also got into trouble.
Fortunately, Shen Meizhuang fainted, otherwise she would have been sad again.
Since the truth could not be found, he was kept under house arrest.
Isn't that equivalent to being banished to the cold palace?
the other side.
After leaving Xianfu Palace, Yongzheng went to Yongshou Palace immediately.
Although Shen Meizhuang's fake pregnancy today started off well but ended badly, it still aroused his vigilance.
He doesn't want anything to happen to his beloved.
When he arrived, Luo Yao was leisurely eating lychees.
To be honest, she was not interested in these lychees; there were too few of them!
And it’s not fresh anymore since it’s sent from below.
So it took me a long time to finish just one, and I actually wanted to eat something spicy.
For example, spicy chicken...
"The Emperor is here~"
Seeing Yongzheng coming, Luo Yao immediately dropped the litchi in her hand, stood up and walked towards him.
Yongzheng carefully held her waist, afraid of crushing the baby in her belly.
"Has Shenpin's problem been resolved?"
Luo Yao raised her head and saw that his brows were unconsciously furrowed, so she stretched out her index finger and pressed it.
"Your Majesty, please stop frowning..."
Yongzheng didn't care. He had long been accustomed to the other party's disrespectful attitude.
He took her to sit aside and asked:
"You know that too? But now she has been demoted to a noble lady, not Concubine Shen."
Luo Yao raised an eyebrow. She didn't expect the punishment to be so light this time.
When she heard the news from there, she was quite hesitant.
I hesitated whether to go to the theater.
Because when I go out, I have to change clothes and tidy up my hair, which is very troublesome.
Later she heard that the Queen Mother had passed away, and she didn't want to go over to see her face even more.
I might as well just wait for the people below to ask for the news, and then come back and tell her after it's over.
Unexpectedly, Yongzheng arrived first.
"Is that so? Then Concubine Shen's fetus...?"
Luo Yao asked even though she knew the answer, wanting to see what Yongzheng would say.
When Yongzheng thought of Shen Meizhuang's fake pregnancy, his expression turned cold.
Regardless of whether Shen Meizhuang did it herself or she was framed by someone else, one thing is certain.
That is, he was extremely disgusted by the other party's use of the royal heir to make a fuss.
He didn't have many children to begin with, and now one more is missing for no apparent reason.
This is not a wasted joy!
Yongzheng gave a brief account of what had happened there.
Luo Yao showed a look of regret.
"What a pity! The Emperor has lost another child."
I laughed in my heart.
In fact, it doesn’t matter how many children she has, because as long as her child is born, everyone else has to stand aside!
It’s better not to have one.
This would save her from having to find a way to get rid of the other party when competing for the throne after finally giving birth to the child.
How hurtful, don't you think?
Luo Yao took Yongzheng's hand and placed it on her belly.
He said:
"Fortunately, the two little guys are fine. I believe they will be able to meet their fathers soon."
"Now they are very active, and they kick me from time to time."
Yongzheng's attention was immediately diverted.
His palm covered her belly and rubbed it carefully.
"Really? Let me take a look."
He didn't dare to use any force for fear of hurting the fetus inside.
These are twins, and the imperial physician said that they are most likely twins, a boy and a girl!
So he looks forward to it every day.
If twins, a boy and a girl, could really be born, it would mean that God still favors the Qing Dynasty and bestows good fortune upon it.
With the twins as a boost, all of Yongzheng's unhappiness was swept away.
My heart and eyes are full of anticipation for the safe birth of the child.
What he couldn't have imagined was that what Luo Yao said that day, "We'll meet soon", really meant soon!
Probably the third day after the Shen Meizhuang incident?
Everyone has not yet recovered from the fake pregnancy incident.
Yongshou Palace was launched!
Luoyao became pregnant in March, so now in September, she is only a little over seven months pregnant.
Although it is said that the baby will not survive until the seventh month, this is still a long time away from full term.
