Xiao Baoxin nodded and didn’t argue with the eldest princess of Xuancheng. After a while, Xiao Ning came out with a change of clothes. It wasn’t until this time that Xiao Baoxin looked carefully that he saw that Empress Xiao’s face was really not very good.
Therefore, it was true that she had overslept these past few days.
A normal pregnancy reaction?
“Empress, quickly lie down and rest.” Xiao Baoxin personally went over and helped Xiao Ning lie down on the couch.
Xiao Ning was flattered.
Although Xiao Baoxin didn’t say it explicitly, when they first met at Jiaofang Palace Hall, he made the other party wait for an hour. Xiao Baoxin’s expression wasn’t too good.
Xiao Ning had stayed in the Xie family before and had seen with her own eyes how much Xie Xian doted on his wife. She was the person that Xie Xian loved the most.
When had he ever made others lose face like this?
Although she had explained it, Xiao Ning knew that if this matter fell on a narrow-minded person, there might be a knot in his heart.
Although the two of them had gotten along well in the Xie residence and were food friends, now, regardless of their position or status, the two of them were unconsciously pulled apart.
Xiao Ning knew very well that the fierce reputation of Xiao Baoxin was only spread by rumors.
At least during their time together, she saw Xiao Baoxin’s forthright and magnanimous manner, and his progress was moderate. From her treatment of Wang Qiang, it could be seen that she had some loyalty.
However, helping her to the bed to rest…
How could there be such a thing?
She really did not know that Xiao Baoxin could be so considerate.”Sister-in-law, it’s not a big deal.”
The eldest princess of Xuan City giggled.” I always feel that after giving birth, my wife’s motherly love is overflowing. Her entire body is emitting a loving and warm glow. Sister-in-law didn’t see how anxious Eldest Niangzi was just now and urged me to call the imperial physician, afraid that it would be delayed.”
Xiao Ning’s heart skipped a beat, and her expression immediately turned ugly.
No matter how much motherly love Xiao Baoxin had, he was never one to make a mountain out of a molehill. Thinking about it, it was inevitable that things would go awry.
Fortunately, not long after, the imperial physician arrived. It was Imperial Physician Liu, who was taking Xiao Baoxin’s pulse. At one point, because Xie Xian had learned by himself, he was disheartened and almost left the world.
Fortunately, the judge gave him another blow. Even if he traveled the world, he still did not have Xie Xian’s brain. He forcefully returned the blow and did not manage to leave.
He had thought it through. No matter how smart Xie Xian was, he was just following the script and had no actual clinical experience.
Although he was not as smart as Xie Xian and had treated and saved people, he could still leave Xie Xian far behind. There was no need to belittle himself.
However, he had thought it through. When he saw Xiao Baoxin, the unpleasant past resurfaced in front of him. He had a purely physiological stomach cramp and a psychological urge to grit his teeth.
“Your humble subject greets the Empress.”
He forced himself to focus on Empress Xiao.
The main reason was that he had to force her. Xiao Baoxin’s face was naturally eye-catching. No matter how many people in the room were there, the highlight would always be her.
“The Empress ‘body is not comfortable, I’ll have to trouble the Imperial Physician to take a look.”Nianxia also stood beside Xiao Ning and took the opportunity to stay far away from Xiao Baoxin. She always felt that Madam Xiao was very evil, so it was better to stay away from her.
Imperial Physician Liu had just checked his pulse when he frowned.
After a while, the way he looked at Empress Xiao was not right, and the tip of his nose was sweating.
Xiao Ning held her breath, feeling a little uneasy.”The Imperial Physician can tell us the truth.”
“This humble subject congratulates the Empress…” Imperial Physician Liu lifted his shirt and knelt on the ground. He wiped the sweat from the tip of his nose and rubbed his face.” It’s a happy pulse, a great pulse of the ”
“Happy pulse?” The eldest princess of Xuancheng was not calm. This was her brother’s first child.”Are you saying that sister-in-law is pregnant?”
Xiao Ning wasn’t as reckless as the Eldest Princess of Xuancheng. She could tell from Imperial Physician Liu’s attitude that it wasn’t a good thing. She subconsciously covered her stomach with her right hand.
“Imperial physician, please speak your mind.”
Imperial Physician Liu:” I can see that Your Majesty’s pulse is indeed slippery, but her pulse indicates that she is severely deficient in blood. Her pulse…” Very weak…There are signs of miscarriage.”
” What?!” The Eldest Princess of Xuancheng suddenly stood up. “This is Imperial Brother’s eldest son, we can’t afford to lose him. I’ll go find Imperial Brother!”
He left the Jiaofang Palace in a hurry.
Xiao Ning was much calmer than the Eldest Princess of Xuancheng, but it was only on the surface.
Xiao Baoxin went over to hold her shoulder and actually felt that she was trembling slightly.
This was the child she had been dreaming of, the son of the first wife. Especially after the Fourth Concubine entered the palace, she tried to curry favor with the Emperor and showed off all kinds of favors to her. Xiao Ning didn’t care, but for the emperor’s eldest son, she still hoped that he would come from the middle palace.
Even though there were many middle-palace empresses who did not have a good ending, such as the plebeian Wang-
However, it was not necessarily better to have no children in the palace. What if Emperor Yong Ping perfectly inherited his father and lost his mind in his middle age? What would she do?
If you have a son, you must have someone to rely on. Even the Emperor did not dare to underestimate them, let alone those flirtatious sluts.
However, she never dreamed that she would find out that she was pregnant under such circumstances.
Can you keep it?” Xiao Ning asked,” Imperial doctor, please protect this child!”
Imperial Physician Liu hesitated. The Queen’s mother was so weak that he was not sure if she could survive. However, he could not say that. “This lowly subject must do his best.”
No one was a fool and could understand what he meant.
“How many months has it been?” Xiao Baoxin suddenly asked.
The blow was obviously too intense and stunned Xiao Ning. She had only cared about protecting the child and had neglected many details. Now that she heard Xiao Baoxin’s words and connected it with Xiao Baoxin’s actions just now, no matter how big the blow was, she could see it.
There was something fishy about her so-called miscarriage!
“Less than two months.” Imperial Physician Liu.
“A month ago, Imperial Physician Zhou of the Imperial Academy of Medicine came to check on the pulse of the patient!” Xiao Ning’s face was cold as ice.”
Imperial Physician Liu thought to himself that this had nothing to do with him. However, they were all colleagues. As long as it was not a competition between two forces that were incompatible with each other, they would usually hide from each other.
“.. At that time, the month was still young, and the Empress’s body was weak due to a cold in the palace. It was also possible that she did not diagnose it for a while.”
Xiao Ning didn’t listen to him.
As soon as she said her name, she immediately changed her words and said,”Xichun, go and compare the daily notes.”
Xiao Baoxin had targeted Nian Xia several times, and Nian Xia Shi had indeed stopped her from calling the imperial physician.
If she hadn’t found a happy pulse, Xiao Ning might not have taken it to heart. Now that she had found a happy pulse, she might even have a miscarriage. She had to be careful.
In fact, she had always been wary of others, but Xichun and Nianxia had been by her side since she was young. She had brought them out of Jiankang, so she had never suspected anyone but them.
Xiao Ning’s heart turned cold. If Xiao Baoxin’s targeting was not false, then…
Who else could she trust?
Xiao Baoxin!
If it wasn’t for her, she would have thought that she had a miscarriage and would lose her child without anyone knowing..
