After saying these words, the hall became as quiet as an empty room once again.
Zhao Mingxi's face suddenly turned pale, "What did you say? Say it again? What happened to me...my child?"
The leader was the current envoy of the Taiyuan Hospital. When he heard what the Crown Princess said, he just glanced at her timidly, then hurriedly knelt down, not daring to say another word.
Mrs. Zhao on the side felt like the world was spinning. It took her a while to recover, but she still couldn't believe what she heard. "You mean, the child in the princess's belly is gone?"
The prince turned his eyes from the mother and daughter, and finally asked in person, "What is going on? Is the child stillborn, or has the fetus slipped earlier, or... there was nothing at all from the beginning to the end?"
Pregnant?"
When the latter words were spoken, Zhao Mingxi trembled involuntarily.
She finally understood.
It turns out everything was fake.
Mrs. Zhao couldn't believe it because she didn't know what her state was like during this time.
But Zhao Mingxi knew in her heart that something had been wrong with her during this period.
In other words, it was so satisfying that there was no pregnancy reaction at all.
No!
It should be said that since she became pregnant, her pregnancy symptoms have become less and less. Until now, except for her own little days, she is no different from a normal woman.
The Imperial Hospital Commander was so frightened that his beard was trembling, but he could not tell the conclusion he had come to, "Your Highness, the Crown Princess is not pregnant, but some qi and blood are not stagnant, resulting in irregular menstruation."
The prince's eyes turned to Zhao Mingxi again, "Princess, what do you say?"
Zhao Mingxi slid down from the chair, and before she could react, she was already kneeling properly.
She looked up at the prince sitting above you, "Your Highness, I didn't know this. I felt unwell, so I asked the imperial doctor to check my pulse. Then I found out that it was a happy pulse. Your Highness...
I know.
Even though His Highness was not present at the time, several imperial doctors consulted together, and the medical records of the Imperial Hospital are clearly recorded, and there is no way I could fool His Highness with such a matter."
Having said this, Zhao Mingxi felt chills in his heart. He gritted his teeth and continued: "If I really want to pretend to be pregnant to win favor, but if I don't have this belly, I don't have it. Even because I'm pregnant, I can no longer serve His Highness.
So, after ten months of pregnancy, where will I go to get a baby?"
"It's hard to say," Mrs. Huayang, who was sitting in the corner, suddenly said, "In the past, there was a civet cat replacing the prince. As the crown prince of the East Palace, you, as the princess of the East Palace, arrange some helpers to bring in a baby.
It’s not a difficult thing.”
Zhao Mingxi suddenly turned to look at the person who was speaking. Her eyes were sharp, as if she wanted to see through Mrs. Huayang's intention when she suddenly spoke.
Mrs. Huayang was completely unafraid of her frightening look at this moment, and just said lightly: "Princess, you should think carefully about what evidence you have in your hands! If you really have the intention of changing the civet cat for the prince, this will confuse the royal bloodline.
A great sin."
Feeling that the prince's eyes were getting colder and colder, Zhao Mingxi also felt that the chill in her body was getting heavier and heavier. She bit her lip and defended herself: "Your Highness, every doctor in the Imperial Hospital will keep detailed records.
, the pulse record, time, medication, and diagnosis are all clear.
If Your Highness doesn't believe what I say, you can send someone to get the medical records so that I can clear my name."
What was a nice little New Year's Eve banquet has now turned into a court hearing a case.
And they come one after another.
These sisters from the Zhao family...
Someone thought of this and couldn't help but turn their eyes to Ye Jinxi, who had been hanging his head after finishing his speech.
It seems that the backyard of the East Palace is no less generous than that of Emperor Yufeng.
That Concubine Zhao was still excusable, and most of the people present had heard about what she did after marrying into the East Palace.
But the fact that the Crown Princess had faked her pregnancy to fight for favor seemed a bit unbelievable.
After all, the Crown Princess has been married to the Crown Prince for many years. Over the years, she has never made any big mistakes. On the contrary, she has won a good reputation among many ladies of the court.
It is really unbelievable that such a person would be so comatose at such a time.
Zhao Mingxi's current request to the prince to check the medical records of Tai Hospital was naturally to prove his innocence.
But when things got to this point, no matter how you put it, her majesty as a crown princess was completely wiped out.
Of course, the prince had no reason not to allow it, and what happened here had already spread to the Tai Hospital. Someone had already brought over all the medical records that had been treated in the East Palace in the past few months.
But when I found the page where Zhao Mingxi was diagnosed with Ximai, I found that it had been torn out.
Not only that, but the person who diagnosed and treated Zhao Mingxi disappeared every time.
Zhao Mingxi immediately turned to the prince, "Your Highness, this is a wanton frame-up! I didn't know that I was not pregnant at all. Someone planted people in the Imperial Hospital to make me believe that I was pregnant, and that's how today happened.
This one comes out.”
As soon as she finished speaking, she heard Mrs. Huayang's voice again, "Why couldn't you have deliberately pretended to be pregnant, and then bribed everyone in the hospital to hide it?"
Zhao Mingxi couldn't care less about her respect for the old woman. She said coldly: "Why is Mrs. Huayang so sure that I must be a false pregnancy? I am already a princess, and I have never committed any crime in these years.
wrong.
As long as I continue to sit in my seat honestly as always, no matter who gives birth to the eldest son for His Highness, they will have to call me their legitimate mother, and in theory, they will all be my children."
Mrs. Huayang groaned when she heard this, turned to the prince and said: "Your Highness, please don't worry about what I said wrong. As I get older, I am a little careless when I speak, and I don't take into account the emotions of young people like you.
The main reason is that at such an old age, I have seen all kinds of ups and downs, so I subconsciously make my own judgments when faced with many things."
Although the prince did not like Mrs. Huayang very much, Mrs. Huayang was kind to Emperor Yufeng and he did not dare to offend her.
Even if Emperor Yufeng dies in the future and he ascends the throne as a matter of course, he probably won't dare to do anything to Mrs. Huayang. Just the word "filial piety" can weigh on him.
So when he heard her words, no matter how angry he was, he quickly softened his tone and said, "Madam, you are worrying too much. My mother has passed away, and my father has been bedridden. It is a great honor to have Madam's guidance."
Mrs. Huayang smiled when she heard this. She seemed to be in a good mood. Without even looking at Zhao Mingxi, she said to the prince: "I am an old person and my words are annoying, but I am looking at you."
Growing up, your father could barely be considered someone I grew up watching.
Tonight's wonderful New Year's Eve banquet turned out like this. I feel sorry for you. How powerful others think the Crown Princess Zhao family is, it doesn't matter to me.
Therefore, I can also say some things that others dare not mention. Your Highness should be worried about how to deal with the Crown Princess's false pregnancy at the moment, right?"
There was a hint of embarrassment on the prince's face, but he still nodded and said, "I'll be honest with you, it's true."
Zhao Mingxi is not Zhao Yuechan. Although the crown prince and the concubine are both concubines, their actual statuses are very different.
Zhao Yuechan can deal with it as he pleases, but the Crown Princess cannot.
What's more, the matter of false pregnancy has not yet been confirmed, so we should be more cautious, otherwise it will not only affect Zhao Mingxi's prestige, but also easily cause the East Palace to be discredited.
