Chapter 219 Secret Resistance
"Empress, I really don't know!" Peng Daxing's forehead has been sweating coldly.
Empress Su snorted coldly, "Don't you know? Aren't you the imperial doctor responsible for consulting Concubine Li and often goes in and out of Changqing Palace? She is pregnant. How can you not know that she is pregnant?
"This... The last time I questioned the Empress Li, I really didn't show my happy pulse. Maybe I'm not good at medicine..."
"Do you still want to deceive me?" Empress Su stared at him with a sneer, "You have worked for Concubine Li secretly. In the past two years, you have tried your best to make Concubine Li pregnant with dragon seeds. Don't think that I don't know anything. Peng Daxing, you have to figure out that in this harem, this palace is the largest, not her concubine. You get the greatest benefit from who you work for, you should know better than me, don't you?"
Peng Daxing secretly complained in his heart. If the Empress continues to interrogate like this, in case he can't help leaking his mouth, won't the Empress Li swallow him alive?
"Queen, as a imperial doctor, I just did what the imperial doctor should do. I'm sorry for being stupid and don't understand what you mean..."
"Don't understand? OK, then I will make the words clearer so that you can completely understand. Empress Su walked up to him and stared into his eyes, "I am not afraid to tell you the truth, and I have also investigated the matter investigated by Concubine Li. Although the imperial hospital hid it from the emperor's face, I still knew that because of that disease, the emperor had no fertility..."
Peng Daxing has realized what she wanted to say, and cold sweat flowed down his cheeks. "This... The emperor's illness is that the hospital envoy and Dr. Tang are in charge. I did not participate in the consultation research, and I don't know the details..."
"It doesn't matter if you don't know it clearly. The important thing is..." Queen Su's eyes darkened. "Since the emperor is infertile, who is in Concubine Li's belly? You must know, right?"
"Empress...Empress, you can't say such words indiscriminately. Empress Li is the emperor's concubine, and she is naturally pregnant with dragon seed!" Peng Daxing was really shocked and couldn't help staging. Although he had also suspected this problem, he did not dare to think deeply. After all, no one dares to determine whether the emperor is sterilized or not.
There was a chill in Queen Su's eyes, "Have you heard that the emperor asked me to go to Xizhao to make protons, so that I don't pay attention to the queen of this palace? I tell you that it is not so easy for the bitch to drive me out, and I will never let her succeed. And... I will definitely investigate where the wild species in her stomach came from. At that time, don't say it's her, but you, the imperial doctor in charge of the consultation, will be killed for the crime of bullying the king.
If you tell me the truth now, you are not guilty but also meritorious. You are a sensible person. You can't figure out what's going on, right?
Peng Daxing felt unprecedented panic and knelt down with soft knees. "Empress, I really don't know anything. Please let me go!"
"Well, it seems that you insist on protecting the bitch of Princess Li and against me?"
"Empress, I dare not fight against you, but I really don't know anything..."
"Enough!" Although Empress Su was determined to defeat Wen Caiqing, after all, she has been in the position for many years and knows strategies. She knows that if the pressure is too tight at this time, it will only be counterproductive. "I give you three days to consider whether to work for this palace or to follow the princess Li, you can choose. If you insist on resisting me, I can't stop you, but... don't blame me for not giving you mercy. You go!"
"Yes, I'm leaving!" Peng Daxing didn't dare to stay. He quickly got up and left.
When I got out of Fengzhi Palace, I found that the clothes on my back had been soaked in cold sweat. The Empress has begun to doubt. Do you want to inform the Empress Li?
He hesitated for a long time and finally decided not to tell Wen Caiqing about this matter. Telling her is equivalent to reminding her that she has the possibility of betraying her. Isn't it a way to die? That woman is not as straightforward as the empress. She will lie to the snake and kill him when she smiles.
After Peng Daxing left, Empress Su regretted giving Peng Daxing three days. Now, how can she have three days to waste? Maybe three days later, she will be forced to go to Xizhao.
No, before investigating the fact that Lifei is pregnant, we must find a way to make the emperor change his mind. Only in this way can she have the opportunity to repay her in her own way!
After thinking about it, he immediately came to the desk and wrote a few letters and gave them to her maid Zhu Hong and Biluo, "You go out of the palace immediately and send these letters quickly!"
"Yes!" Zhu Hong and Biluo promised to go out.
"Your Majesty, the Empress is the mother of a country and must not be a proton, otherwise it will lose the national body!" Several old ministers mourned, "Please think twice!"
"Think twice?" Jiang Shize sneered at his lips, "What do you want me to think? I said that you wouldn't allow me to make peace; now I have fulfilled your mind, intending to make peace, choosing a proton, and you have come to stop it again. Have you changed your mind? Do you want me to send troops?"
Several old ministers' expressions were stagnant and hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, you have misunderstood. This must be made up. I just don't think it's appropriate for the Empress to go to Xizhao. The empress's biological father is General Su, who has made great achievements in fighting for our Taici country. How chill it would be if General Su knew that you sent his beloved daughter to a foreign country..."
"Ha, haha..." Jiang Shize couldn't help laughing, "You are afraid of death, aren't you afraid of me, a living person? Do you think the queen is not suitable? So who is suitable? Is it the Empress Dowager?"
"Of course, the Empress Dowager is not suitable!"
Jiang Shize pulled the corners of his mouth without sarcasm, "Since they are not suitable, do you think I am the most suitable? Have you already thought that I, the emperor, should have rolled down from the throne?
Several old ministers suddenly panicked, "Your Majesty, I don't mean to do that. Please forgive me!"
Jiang Shize sneered, "Since you don't mean that, what crime do you want me to forgive?" Yesterday, he was forced to be anxious and confused for a moment before he said that he let Empress Su be a proton. He had already regretted it. After all, Empress Su was his wife. But these old ministers came to chatter again, but the guilt in his heart faded away. Looking at these old and frightened expressions, he felt very happy!
"Your Majesty..." Cheng Nianzhong spared no effort to persuade him, "Since ancient times, you may not like to listen to what the old minister said, but it's really inappropriate to let the Queen be a proton. Please think twice before you decide on the proton candidate.
"Well, I finally understand that what you say is reasonable, and everything I do is wrong. Then what else do you want me to do? You can sit on this dragon chair and make a decision!" Jiang Shize left these words and went away angrily. A group of ministers looked at each other and lamented.
Jiang Shize retreated early in anger. In order to avoid those ministers from being chased to the imperial study, he went straight to the harem. After a few laps, I felt a little calm and thought of Wen Caiqing, "Lou Ming, let's go to Changqing Palace to see Lifei!"
"Yes, your Majesty!" Lou Ming hurriedly agreed.
"Congratulations!" Hyman didn't know what Wen Caiqing asked her to do, but he had heard the news that she was pregnant and congratulated her first.
Wen Cai's eyes are full of smiles, "Thank you very much!" After a pause, he said, "I'm coming to you. I have something to ask you!"
"If you have something to do, just order it. Please don't afford it!"
Wen Caiqing smiled and glanced at Chun'er. Chun'er realized it and hurriedly took a stack of paper manuscripts and handed it to Hyman.
Hyman took over and took a brief look. The drawing on it seemed to be a design drawing, but it was very different from what she drew, but he didn't know what Wen Caiqing meant by showing her.
"When the Shangfu Bureau heard the news that I was pregnant, I drew some patterns to show it to my palace overnight, saying that it would be used by the future prince, but I didn't think it was very good." Speaking of this, Wen Caiqing frowned slightly and seemed to be really dissatisfied. "I have always been very satisfied with your craftsmanship..."
