Who Did It?
Translator: 549690339
Consort Pan Xian was just a month pregnant.
Her period was shockingly accurate. This month, she was late by three days, and she was basically certain. She used the excuse of her body not feeling well and invited the imperial doctor to take her pulse. As expected, it was a happy pulse.
Initially, she had thought that there were only two days left. It was just in time for the Mid-Autumn Festival family banquet to release this news to add to the joy.
In the end, even a fool knew that this was not a good time to release the news.
Furthermore, Empress Xiao had a miscarriage, Consort Qi De was framed for miscarriage, and now Consort He Shu had two lives.
Even though Consort Pan Xian wasn’t born into a noble family and had never seen anything big, she still had basic intelligence. The things that happened in the palace one after another could be said to be coincidences. The royal family had offended the Child-endowing Empress, making you pregnant one after another and unable to give birth…She didn’t believe it!
One empress and two concubines were destined to die. Someone must have done something behind their backs. Who was it?
Consort Pan Xian looked exactly like her! As for whether it was the same person or different people committing different crimes, she did not know. In short, it would not happen naturally.
Empress Xiao did not sit down even after she came. She went to the inner room to persuade the Emperor. After all, it was not auspicious for a man to bleed in the delivery room.
Emperor Yongping asked, “Zitong, why is this?””
“She… How did Biao Younger Sister die?”
“I sent someone to check the sedan. There was a mark of someone sawing-off it. “Empress Xiao stood to the side and spoke softly. Her eyes didn’t even glance at Consort He Shu’s corpse, as if she didn’t exist.
In fact, she did not exist anymore.
In a sense.
Empress Xiao was delighted, but she couldn’t show it.
This was probably the only thing that made her happy after her second miscarriage after Provincial Governor Xiao’s death.
She looked at Emperor Yong Ping. As expected, Emperor Yong Ping quickly looked at her after hearing this.
It could be seen that the Emperor had such thoughts. The empresses and concubines in the Palace who were pregnant with the Emperor’s heir-of course, the empresses and concubines here really referred to the empress and the concubines. It was not that the other concubines of lower status were not pregnant, but they were all fine and lively. On the contrary, it was normal for the emperor to be suspicious if one of the high-ranking concubines fell.
“Who do you think it is?” “Zhang Tong?” Emperor Yongping asked. Who did it?”
Empress Xiao shook her head gently.
Then, he quickly raised his head and looked at Emperor Yong Ping. “Forgive me for being blunt, but I don’t know. Even if he said who it was, he had no evidence and was just guessing.”
“Then guess who it is?”
There was a young eunuch standing guard outside the door. He was trembling even more than Consort Pan Xian. He couldn’t imagine what kind of evil interest the Emperor and Empress had. When the Emperor was hugging Consort He Shu’s corpse, they were brazenly guessing who the murderer was.
Was it fun?
Are you really not afraid of ghosts looking for you at night?
It was fine if he wasn’t grieving, but what could he say in front of the dead? The little eunuch was the Emperor’s close relative, so he had seen how much Consort He Shu was favored by the Emperor when she was alive. Of course, she was second only to Consort Chu.
But so what?
If he died, he would die. He couldn’t even get peace and had to listen to Celestial Empress talk about it. It was also miserable.
Of course, this did not stop him from pricking his ears to listen to the empress’s conversation.
“An aristocratic family, or… The royal family.”
The Empress Dowager and Consort Chu had arrived. Consort Pan Xian had been keeping a small distance from the Empress Dowager’s side. She had quietly told the Empress Dowager when the Empress Dowager wasn’t around. Consort Chu was also present. Other than envy, she didn’t dare to have any other emotions. Imperial Concubine Chu felt awkward. She was the only one who had been pregnant with the four concubines. What was she? Was she just a piece of barren land?
However, when she thought about it, three of the four of them were not born, and one of them was even dead. She was actually not that miserable. After all, every miscarriage would hurt her body.
When they fought to the death, it was not impossible for her to pick up the slack.
It was Consort Pan Xian! She did not know if her fate was good or bad, but she just had to be pregnant at this time. The Emperor’s ‘eyeball’ had just died. Even if any of the concubines in the palace were pregnant, they would not be able to make the Emperor happy.
You’re a concubine. What are you trying to achieve by getting pregnant and giving birth to a child? Isn’t it because the emperor is happy?
The emperor is happy. Your son has a good life?
Therefore, she understood the Empress Dowager’s intention to hide it from the Emperor, at least not now. As for when to say it, it was as if she had said it too quickly, as if it was not in the eyes of this aunt and niece.
It was up to him whether he wanted to say or not.
He didn’t know if it was because he trusted her too much, or if he had predicted that she would report to the Emperor. Anyway, it was hard to figure out.
Fortunately, the Empress Dowager basically did not manage the affairs of the harem. She was now in charge of everything that the Empress was in charge of, so she was not afraid of the Empress Dowager playing tricks. She did not have ’ that kind of brain.
The Grand Empress Dowager’s old arms and legs had bled out from Consort He Shu. She had almost mobilized the entire Imperial Academy of Medicine to wait here. It had been almost four hours now. She really could not take it anymore. Furthermore, he was afraid that Emperor Yong Ping would have the shadow of the previous Emperor Yu Heng. He did not want to fall in love with whoever died and become like his biological father again.
Therefore, he didn’t urge the people around him and came over personally. The moment he entered the room and saw what the Emperor was carrying, his old face almost exploded. It was terrifying.
He urged her to put her down quickly. Investigate what should be investigated and arrest what should be arrested. Although it was late now, the person who died was not an ordinary person from a small family. She was a daughter of an aristocratic family. If it was necessary to inform, hurry up and inform her family.
The Ministry of Rites also had to send someone to inform them. After all, it was the Fourth Consort, so the funeral could not be sloppy.
“You don’t have to stay here. You’re covered in blood. It’s scary to see. Noble Consort, go and help His Majesty change his clothes first. It’s quite unlucky.”The Grand Empress Dowager handed the Emperor over to Noble Consort Chu and the funeral of Consort He Shu over to Empress Xiao. She then led Consort Pan Xian back to the Peaceful Life Palace.
Consort Pan Xian had thus settled down in the Peaceful Life Palace to raise her child. She did not even return to her own Long Autumn palace, shutting her doors and acting like a turtle hiding in its shell, afraid that she would fall into someone’s trap and lose her life along the way.
There was no need to talk about this later.
In Daliang, the Mid-Autumn Festival wasn’t anything special. It was just a gathering of people to admire the moon.
Some families didn’t even pass.
Originally, the Xie family did not celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival. However, because Xiao Baoxin had celebrated it when he was in the Xiao family, she married into the Xie family. Under the leadership of Xie Xian, the Xie family celebrated the Mid-Autumn Festival. Of course, they were just looking at the moon and chatting about the day.
In order to highlight the atmosphere, Xie Xian had people set up a table full of food in the courtyard. There were all kinds of round cakes, fruits, and snacks.
Although the moon was out and the sky was dark, it was the best time to watch the moon. In Yi An Hall, Mother Xie rarely slept late, so she was happy with the whole family.
At this moment, four generations were already living under the same roof. Six or seven children were running around in the courtyard, laughing and laughing. It was very lively.
After Xie Yan heard about Nanny’s experience, that children who were six or seven months old could walk, he had already let go of himself and officially started walking. Fortunately, he swayed a little when he walked three to five steps. Sometimes, when he saw that the ground was clean and there were no gravel, he would pretend to be unsteady and fall down.
