Chapter 727: Pregnant!

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

“In the past year, Her Highness has fainted twice for no reason.” Si Zhengliang looked at the imperial physician and scowled coldly. “As an imperial physician, you can’t even find out the cause of the illness?!”

He dared not deal with Su Ji, so he bullied the imperial physician.

Imperial Physician MO looked conflicted, his Adam’s apple bobbed, and he could tell that he was very nervous.

Su Ji looked at Si Zhengliang, who was dressed in official robes. She recognized this face, but now that she looked at him again…for some reason, she felt that he looked more familiar.

Si Zhengliang was the first to bear the brunt, and the other ministers also began to make things difficult for the imperial physician.

From their conversation, they were already interrogating the imperial physician before she woke up. It seemed that at some critical moment, Su Ji suddenly opened her eyes, giving Imperial Physician MO some buffer time.

Imperial Physician MO calmed down, “replying to Lord Si, as mentioned, the Consort Dowager is indeed too worried about the government. She was overworked, which led to…

“Bullshit!” Lord Ning Bianyi cut him off. “The first time she fainted, she might have been overworked, but Her Highness hasn’t been involved in court for a year, she hasn’t recovered yet? Then it’s your fault!”

Not participating in the government for a year…

This was the first time Su Ji had heard of this. She narrowed her eyes.

Moreover, Ning Bianyi looked familiar to her.

Especially that crafty and unscrupulous look.

It really looked familiar.

These were all people she knew from the past. She didn’t think much of them before, but after a trip to the modern world, she felt like she had seen them somewhere before…

“I…” Imperial Physician MO lifted his sleeve to wipe his sweat.

Su Ji’s gaze fell on his expression for a few seconds.

“Imperial Physician MO,” Ning Bianyi pursued, “the Lord Wu said that he clearly saw you leave Her Highness’ bedroom in a panic today and only returned not long ago! Why did you leave the palace late at night? Who bribed you?”

Lord Wu, who was ousted: ‘

“Speak!” Ning Bianyi asked, “what illness does Her Highness have?” Si Zhengliang said, “hiding Consort Dowager’s condition is a capital offense!”

The two of them echoed each other and Imperial Physician MO broke out in cold sweat.

Ning Bianyi took a step forward.” didn’t even say anything when I interrogated you like this. Could it be that Consort Dowager has some unspeakable…”

“Bang!”

At this moment, the sound of porcelain shattering could be heard among the ministers. Ning Bianyi’s aggressive words stopped abruptly.

Su Ji flipped over the tea tray in the palace maid’s hands, and a few cups of boiling hot tea fell accurately beside Ning Bian’s feet.

At the same time, the hot tea splashed on his cloth boots.

A few seconds later, Ning Bianyi, who had yet to react, twisted his leg in a comical manner.

“Hiss-”

His toes were almost burnt!

“Hiding the illness is indeed a capital crime.” Su Ji looked at Imperial Physician Mo.

Imperial Physician Mo’s expression changed when he heard her say that. However, before he could explain, Su Ji gave him a reassuring look.

“But it depends on who I’m hiding it from.” Su Ji changed the topic. “Lord Ning, Lord Si, since when did I have to inform the two of you of my illness?” Ning Bianyi and Si Zhengliang were rendered speechless.

Su Ji continued, “Lord Ning, on the other hand, do you know that slander is a serious crime?!”

The sharp words and aura were directed at Ning Bianyi at the same time, and he almost instantly panicked. “Please forgive me, Consort Dowager!”

He cupped his hands in front of him to block his sinister expression.

She had inexplicably avoided them for a year, and now that they met again, she was still so eloquent!

The spy he sent had clearly reported to him that the devil concubine’s temperament had changed drastically. Her eyes were dull, and she was submissive. She had completely lost her ability to fight.

Let’s see how he’ll punish that spy when he gets back!

Consort Dowager had already woken up, and her expression did not seem to be too much of a problem. The officials had no reason to continue staying in her bedroom.

Just as she was about to serve her tea, Su Ji asked them to leave first, as did the nannies and beauties. On the contrary, she called out to Imperial Physician MO, who was planning to sneak away like an invisible person.

Imperial Physician Mo’s body froze, and the back of his head, which was facing away from Su Ji, revealed a sense of dejection as if a disaster was imminent.

When the nanny left, she closed the door, leaving only Imperial Physician MO and Su Ji in the room.

“Tell me.” Su Ji bent one leg and stepped on the bed while the other leg rested on the side of the bed. “What exactly is wrong with me?”

Imperial Physician Mo’s nervousness had long exceeded his usual level, and Su Ji had noticed it immediately.

Even if he couldn’t find anything, he wouldn’t be so nervous.

Therefore, he must have found out something..

Su Ji did not think that he could find out that she had been to the modern world once a year, so she was even more puzzled.

Imperial Physician MO was silent for half a minute before he knelt on the ground with a thud!

He stretched out his hands in front of him and supported his upper body. He did not dare to raise his head at all and his entire body was trembling.

“Spare me, Consort Dowager! Her Highness did not have any illness! Her Highness was just worried about the country and nothing else!”

“I don’t know anything! I wouldn’t tell anyone! Please spare this lowly official’s life, I have children..

However, the more he acted like this, the more suspicious Su Ji felt.

She had originally only wanted to sound him out, but now, if he did not tell the truth, she would not let him go today.

“I know that you have a family.” A sly glint flashed across Su Ji’s eyes. “If you don’t want anything to happen to them, answer whatever I ask.” Imperial Physician MO lowered his head, not knowing how to respond.

“I just want to know what illness I have.”

Imperial Physician Mo: ‘

After a minute of mental struggle, Imperial Physician MO was almost determined to die as he kowtowed to the ground, “it wasn’t an illness…it’s a pregnancy!”

He suddenly looked up. “Consort Dowager! Her Highness is pregnant!”

Su Ji met his gaze and froze, her pupils constricting.

Her usually cold expression couldn’t hold it in anymore.

What?

She took a few steps out of bed and stopped in front of Imperial Physician Mo.

“When did this happen?”

When did this happen? How did Imperial Physician MO know?!

His entire body was trembling. The late emperor’s concubine suddenly became pregnant. This was a death penalty.

“This matter is rather strange. I took Consort Dowager’s pulse every two weeks.

The last time was seven days ago. At that time, it was still a normal pulse.. However, yesterday, Consort Dowager fainted, so I came again to take Her

Highness’ pulse and suddenly noticed…”
