Zhao Yuechan's face suddenly turned pale. She obviously didn't use any force, but just pushed gently. Why...
This matter soon spread throughout the East Palace, and even reached the ears of Queen Zhao, who was so angry that she vomited the medicine she just drank, "What kind of trash did you raise to bring this in!"
Go! Pass on my order and let Concubine Zhao shut up and think about it for... no, three months! Don't let her come out and embarrass herself, and send two imperial doctors to check on Jiang Baolin."
Nowadays, the situation in the court is unclear, and some people in the former court and harem are in panic.
This kind of matter was just a minor matter in the East Palace. Empress Zhao and the Crown Princess handled it properly and blocked any way for rumors to spread.
Moreover, Jiang Shuhua's situation is relatively lucky. She only had a slight movement of fetal air, which is not serious. She can rest peacefully for a month or two and be fine.
But unexpectedly, this matter was reported back to the Xie family. The second wife of the Xie family sent people to send a lot of medicinal materials in a polite manner, without saying a word about Jiang Shuhua's fetal force.
Not saying it doesn't mean that she doesn't know. The Crown Princess knows the current situation in the East Palace, so she is naturally very polite to the Xie family now.
When the prince saw that the Xie family valued Jiang Shuhua so much, he cared about Jiang Shuhua even more. He directly ordered that before the child was born, she should be exempted from the morning and evening examinations.
Then he sent palace officials to Zhao Yuechan's courtyard, severely reprimanded her, and fined her for half a year's salary.
For Zhao Yuechan, money is naturally nothing, but the most important thing is this face.
After this incident, everyone knew that she, Zhao Yuechan, was not that decent in the heart of His Highness, and Jiang Shuhua was not that shameless either.
What's more, Jiang Shuhua is still pregnant with this child.
If it is a boy, he is the eldest son of His Highness the Crown Prince.
Even if she only gave birth to a daughter, she would be the second woman to give birth to a child for the prince after the princess.
Jiang Baolin seems to be about to turn around.
There were many people in the palace who worshiped those who were superior and looked down upon those who were inferior. At this moment, the attitude towards Zhao Yuechan and Jiang Shuhua immediately changed drastically.
I don’t know how many people came to visit Jiang Shuhua’s yard that day.
Xizhu's face also showed a bit of joy, and he walked in lightly.
Jiang Shuhua was half lying on the bed, holding a bowl of medicine in her hand. When she saw her coming in, she raised her eyes and asked.
"They're all gone." Xizhu walked over, took the bowl in her hand away, and poured all the medicine into the potted plant. "Master, finally got through it?"
Jiang Shuhua just smiled and said nothing.
We have already reached this point, how can we do it if we don’t plan for ourselves?
She used to be optimistic about the third prince, but now she is not only the prince's lover, but she is also pregnant with the child, and has been tied to the same boat with the prince. Only when the prince ascends that position can she have a chance to get ahead.
"It's just that her surname is still Zhao. Regardless of whether she is His Highness or the Queen, this punishment is too light."
Jiang Shuhua smiled instead, "Why are you in a hurry? Take your time. You also said that his surname is Zhao. On this point, I can't compare."
After all, she is someone whose last name is not even Xie.
However, with Zhao Yuechan's mind, sooner or later something will happen. It would be a good thing to trap her now, as it would allow her to give birth to the child first and then plan her plans slowly.
Maybe we can even use that idiot to bring down the Crown Princess.
There are only two things that matter most now. The first is the child in my belly.
The second thing is to establish a good relationship with the Xie family.
"Have you managed to contact your second brother?"
Xizhu's face darkened a bit when he saw her asking about this, "Second Young Master said..."
She hesitated for a moment, then glanced at Jiang Shuhua, and suddenly said, "The second young master said that now that the master is a member of the East Palace, he should not have private contact with foreign ministers. It is a grave sin to give or take in private."
Jiang Shuhua's face turned ugly when she heard this.
I really want to break away from myself like this.
Her surname is Jiang, and Xie Langhua's surname is Xie. If the two of them have contact, it can be regarded as a private exchange.
But after all, she grew up in the Xie family. Everyone knew that they were a brother and sister. Even if someone discovered that they were exchanging letters, who would really say anything.
Xie Langhua used such an excuse to cut off relations with her!
Xizhu quickly comforted him, "Second Young Master has always been a bit off-kilter. Let's plan this matter slowly in the future! Master now has two bodies, so it's better to listen to the doctor, think less and take good care of the fetus."
"Don't worry! I won't be sad for them anymore. It's just that he ignores me and makes things more difficult for me." After saying that, he waved his hand and said, "You go down first! Let me think about it."
Xie Songhua stayed at Xie's house, but she did not cut off contact with the outside world. As soon as she came back, she asked someone to send a message to Zhuo Mansion. When she was free, she quickly wrote down her doubts and guesses and sent them to Zhuo Mansion.
Went to the envoy of Zhuo Yuan.
I quickly received a reply from Ambassador Zhuo Yuan.
As soon as he picked up the thick pile of letters, Xie Songhua felt excited and nervous at the same time.
After taking out the contents, I discovered that my master had actually begun to study these strange drugs that were secretly circulating in the market.
Seeing the various medicines in Zhuo Yuanzhi's stack of materials, Xie Songhua felt his scalp numb.
Wait until you see the end to see Zhuo Yuanshi’s own research conclusion.
These drugs circulating in the black market in Daqi are not ordinary drugs, but something that is likely to come from southern Xinjiang - Gu.
Seeing this word, Xie Songhua felt his scalp numb.
She had seen this kind of thing before, in TV dramas and novels.
As a medical student, she always felt that this was something created by the writers' own imagination.
Xie Songhua himself has never conducted in-depth research, and it turns out that this is a real thing.
Not long after, Xie Qionghua brought her a small box.
"Three hundred taels," Xie Qionghua said bluntly, "I haven't earned a penny from you."
She had been in poor health all year round and dragged her sick body here. Even if others saw her, they would treat her as if she was here to ask Xie Songhua to help with medical treatment, and no one would say anything.
After all, in the eyes of everyone in the Xie family, apart from having a bad temper, the eldest girl is actually the most worry-free one.
Xie Songhua felt a little heartache, and looking at Xie Qionghua's face, there was no room for negotiation at all, so he had to ask Aunt Lan to get the money.
After buying a house and adding a lot of things, she really didn't have much money left.
Xie Songhua squeezed the three banknotes hard for a long time, but they were finally taken away by Xie Qionghua, "You will have a huge dowry in the future, what does this little money count for?!"
I still have to save money for retirement! My brother, a prodigal, doesn’t know if he will be able to support his wife and children in the future, so I can’t expect him to support me!”
Xie Songhua couldn't convince her, but he didn't believe her lies either, "It seems like you haven't paid the medical bills for the surgery I gave you before!"
"You didn't ask for it!" Xie Qionghua said matter-of-factly, "I'm already fully recovered. Do you still expect me to make up for it for you?"
"you……"
Xie Songhua gritted his teeth, swallowed the bad breath in his throat, and directly swung the broom to drive people away.
After the people left, he carefully opened the small box.
After opening it, I felt that the three hundred taels were worth it. After all, there were six pills in the box.
Counting it down to fifty taels a piece.
No! It’s still too expensive!
Xie Songhua found the pile of letters written by Zhuo Yuanshi, and then opened the pills according to the above method.
