I just want to live a happy life

Chapter 426 Gao Xiyue 25

"What did you say?" the emperor said expressionlessly.

The imperial physician wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and said, "Your Majesty, Concubine Yi was poisoned, and that's why the princess was born so weak."

The emperor took a deep breath, suppressed his anger and asked, "What kind of poison is it?"

The doctor hesitated: "This, this, I have only found out that there is poison, but I have not yet found out what the poison is."

The emperor said angrily, "Then go check it out quickly. It's really useless. When Concubine Yi was pregnant, I knew she was in poor health. You kept saying that she was fine. Now that she has given birth to the child, you have found out. If you can't find any results, you can get out of the Imperial Hospital."

The imperial physician hastily assured, "Yes, yes, I will investigate this as soon as possible."

Just then, someone hurried in from outside, and it was Zhenshu.

After Zhenshu came in, she bowed and before she could catch her breath, she said hurriedly, "Your Majesty, Empress Dowager, Concubine Jia has started, please go and take a look."

The emperor no longer cared about this and ordered people to take good care of the little princess and asked the imperial physician to find out what the poison was. Then he took the queen, who had been silent, to Qixiang Palace.

After arriving at Qixiang Palace, it was in a mess, with people carrying water and boiling water busy.

The emperor asked this question and went to the main hall of Qixiang Palace to wait.

After a while, Ruyi, who heard the news, also walked into Qixiang Palace. When Hai Lan saw her, she hurriedly called her sister.

The two of them walked into the main hall of Qixiang Palace and followed the emperor, waiting silently for Concubine Jia to give birth.

But after several hours, Concubine Jia still showed no signs of giving birth.

It was already very late, and the emperor did not stay here for long. He had to attend the morning court tomorrow, so he went straight back to the Yangxin Palace.

Seeing that the emperor had left, how could the queen stay here all the time and order Ruyi to watch over here?

Ruyi was somewhat dissatisfied, but she still agreed. She had already regarded Jia Guiren's child as a sure thing, and the emperor had also promised her to raise Jia Guiren's child. It would be fine for her to stay here and watch the child being born.

Ruyi waited with great anticipation, and Hailan did not leave but stayed with her sister.

By midnight, Concubine Jia still hadn't given birth. Ruyi could no longer bear it and kept yawning.

Hailan felt sorry for her sister: "Sister, you should rest here for a while. I will help you watch over her. If Jia Gui gives birth, I will call you sister."

Ruyi did not refuse. She grabbed Hailan's hand and said, "Thank you, Hailan."

Hailan shook her head: "Sister, you don't have to be polite to me, go and have a rest."

Hai Lan watched over her sister as she fell asleep on a small couch not far away.

Ye Xin on the side looked at the master, seeming to want to say something but hesitated, but finally did not say it.

Time passed slowly and it was already daytime.

The emperor had returned from the morning court. He asked if Concubine Jia had not given birth yet, so he had breakfast first and then planned to go to Qixiang Palace to check.

When we arrived at Qixiang Palace, there were already a lot of people there.

Not only the queen was there, but also Gao Xiyue and other concubines.

Not long after the emperor arrived, some sounds were heard from the hall where Jin Yuyan gave birth. As the midwife loudly said, "It's born, it's born," the emperor's face showed a little smile.

But soon, the delivery room became silent and very quiet.

The emperor noticed something was wrong, and the other concubines looked at each other without saying a word, especially Bai Ruiji, who kept twisting her handkerchief in her hands.

Emperor: "What's going on?"

After a while, a midwife came out of the delivery room and said, "Your Majesty, after Concubine Jia gave birth to a prince, the prince...died young."

The emperor looked at her with suspicion: "How is it possible? I just heard him crying, how could he die so quickly? Jinbao, go... go and bring the child over for me to see."

Jinbao: “Yes.”

Soon, he brought the child out. The child was wrapped tightly in a small quilt. He walked in front of the emperor but did not dare to let the emperor see him immediately.

Instead, he said, "Your Majesty, the little prince died when he was born. You, you don't need to see him."

Jinbao's expression was obviously not right, and there were so many concubines here, so it would be better for the emperor not to look at him.

But the emperor was very persistent. He reached out his hand and slowly lifted the swaddling clothes. After taking a look, he dared not look again and took a step back.

Jinbao quickly covered himself with the quilt, and no one else saw it except the emperor.

Even if the other concubines didn't see it, they realized something was wrong as soon as they saw the emperor's expression. They guessed that the child that Concubine Jia had just given birth to must not be normal.

Suddenly, they lost their curiosity. In this palace, there are some things that are better not known.

The emperor sat on the chair, and after a long while, he said, "Check it for me! Let the imperial physician check it for me. If it is unclear, let the imperial physician from the Imperial Hospital bring the head to me."

First, Concubine Yi gave birth to a weak child, and ten years later, Concubine Jia gave birth to a child like that. No matter how you looked at it, something was wrong.

Someone must have tampered with this.

After giving birth, Jin Yuyan did not fall into a coma. She thought she would give birth to a healthy baby, but how could she give birth to a child like that? Jin Yuyan didn't want to believe it.

She cried in pain. She couldn't understand how she could have fallen into the trap even though she had been on good guard.

Her child!

Her hope was gone!

And the emperor will definitely dislike her.

The emperor outside heard Jin Yuyan's crying, but was not moved at all. He snorted coldly and left Qixiang Palace directly.

Although he understood that Jin Yuyan must have been harmed to give birth to such a child, he still took his anger out on her, thinking that Jin Yuyan was really useless.

He was too lazy to coax her.

Gao Xiyue glanced in the direction of the hall where Jin Yuyan was. In fact, Jin Yuyan was poisoned by more cinnabar than Huang Qiying, but in order to prevent Jin Yuyan from discovering it, she did not let Jin Yuyan show any symptoms.

If it had been revealed, Jin Yuyan would probably have noticed something was wrong long ago.

Gao Xiyue does not regret doing all this. In the original plot, Jin Yuyan took advantage of the original owner many times, made the original owner take the blame many times, and then slapped the original owner in the face.

All these were remembered by the original owner, so Gao Xiyue would naturally help the original owner get them back.

Gao Xiyue naturally would not pretend to care about Jin Yuyan, but just left.

Ruyi did not leave. She was thinking about whether she should care about Jin Yuyan and give her some warmth.

But after thinking about it, she decided to give up. She was also a little annoyed. She had originally prepared to adopt Jin Yuyan's child, but who knew that in the end it would be in vain. Her expectations were in vain.

Since Jin Yuyan is worthless, what's the point of caring about her anymore.
