Chapter 680
At the same time, the news about Qin Zhao's pregnancy also spread in the harem, which soon disturbed the Cihe Palace and the Hall of Mental Cultivation.
When Xiao Ce came to Jinyang Palace with great interest, Qin Zhao didn't know what to say.
She just wanted to test how the various palaces in the harem responded, but she wanted to miss Xiao Ce.
How disappointed would Xiao Ceruo be when she learned that she was pregnant and that it was fake news?
Xiao Ce didn't give Qin Zhao a chance to explain, and directly asked the imperial physician to take Qin Zhao's pulse. Qin Zhao refused when he saw the battle, "Can the emperor let the others retire?"
Seeing that Qin Zhao's reaction was so indifferent, Xiao Ce sank, and the smile on his face faded.
Seeing this, Qin Zhao knew that he wanted to understand something.
When the others stepped down, Qin Zhao said, "I'm sorry, but my body is not up to par."
Xiao Ce quickly returned to normal: "Let me know who is spreading the rumors behind my back, and I will never give up."
Qin Zhao hurriedly said: "The emperor doesn't have to make a big deal about this. I don't think it's a big problem. It's better to take it lightly. This matter is over, and the emperor should not know about it."
She also wanted to use this incident to test everyone's reaction. If Xiao Ce made a big move, it would make many people shrink back.
"Are you sure?" Xiao Ce felt that this was not like Qin Zhao's temper of revenge, not to mention the fact that Qin Zhao was unable to conceive, and someone made a fuss about it.
"I'm pretty sure. Just think of it as accumulating blessings for yourself. Maybe one day God will feel sorry for me, and for the sake of accumulating blessings, he will give me a child." Qin Zhao replied sternly.
Seeing that she was so determined, Xiao Ce let her go.
"Is the emperor disappointed?" Qin Zhao was worried about Xiao Ce's feelings.
Xiao Ce didn't know how to answer. When he first heard the news, he believed it to be true and was overjoyed, but he never thought that it was false news.
He didn't want to lie to her, and he didn't want to make her feel bad.
With Xiao Ce's expression, what else does Qin Zhao not understand?
"It's okay for the emperor to be disappointed this time, maybe there will be good news next time." Qin Zhao showed a hearty smile.
Xiao Ce patted her head and said softly, "You don't have to be under pressure. Even if we don't have children in our lives, I think it's enough to have you."
Qin Zhao leaned into his arms, his nose was sour.
He is the emperor, how can he do without children?
At this moment, she suddenly felt that if another woman could give birth to a child for him, it might be a good result.
The two embraced each other quietly for a while, and finally Qin Zhao pushed Xiao Ce away and said, "Your Majesty, don't tell me about this, I don't want to be a joke of the whole harem, just let this matter go quietly, and the Emperor can be satisfied. Is this my little request?"
Of course Xiao Ce agreed, and he accompanied Qin Zhao to talk for a while before returning to the Hall of Mental Cultivation.
After that, Zhang Jixiang sent a lot of rewards to Jinyang Palace. As soon as the news came out, the news about Qin Zhao's pregnancy spread even more.
Originally, Qin Zhao was a unique existence in this harem. If he was pregnant with an imperial heir, would that be okay?
Seeing the news from the Cihe Palace getting worse, Xiao Ce even rewarded Qin Zhao and doubted whether Qin Zhao was really pregnant. But she didn't like Qin Zhao, so she wasn't so happy when she heard the news.
Recently, Xiao Ce often stayed in Zhong Cui Palace, but Wu Xirou didn't move, but Qin Zhao came out with good news, which made her very dissatisfied.
The Empress Dowager Guo was restless here, and the Empress Dowager of Shoukang Palace was also curious about whether this was true or not, so she went to Jinyang Palace for a visit.
Qin Zhao respectfully greeted the Empress Dowager. The Empress Dowager was so anxious that she directly explained her intentions.
"I'm disappointed with the maiden, but I didn't get pregnant. This time, someone with intentions deliberately used this way to see my joke. I told the emperor to let this matter continue to ferment and see who was in the game. I didn't make it clear to the empress right away." Qin Zhao answered honestly.
The Queen Mother was full of hope in the future, and of course she was disappointed when she heard Qin Zhao's answer.
But after all, she is an old man who has been immersed in the harem for many years. She quickly returned to normal: "I didn't get pregnant this time, so I will work hard next time. If God blesses you, you will be able to spread branches and leaves for the royal family one day."
"I think so too. But please don't talk about this matter, I want to see the reaction of other people in the harem." Qin Zhao said sternly.
"Okay, I'll listen to you, Ai's family will not get involved in this matter." The Empress Dowager sat for a while before leaving Jinyang Palace.
When the Empress Dowager was far away, Baozhu returned to Qin Zhao and said, "If the Empress Dowager asks about this, how should the girl answer?"
The Empress Dowager Guo would not speak as well as the Empress Dowager.
"The empress dowager hates me, so she definitely wouldn't come to ask me about it. At most, she sent Nianyun to ask. I can't lie to the empress dowager, can't I get rid of a Nianyun?" Qin Zhao replied in a low voice.
Baozhu thinks what she said makes sense.
It turns out that Qin Zhao guessed right.
Early the next morning, Nianyun came to Jinyang Palace to meet Qin Zhao. In the end, Baozhu came out to answer, saying that Qin Zhao was vomiting early in the morning and had no energy to see the guests, so please read Yunyun at your own discretion.
Nianyun had to inquire about the news from Baozhu: "What did the imperial doctor say when he came to diagnose Miss Qin yesterday?"
"Master Wu prescribed some medicines to replenish the body, and told the girl to take a good rest and don't get angry easily. As long as she takes good care of herself, the girl's body will be fine." Baozhu replied in a low voice: "The girl still needs someone to wait on her side, aunt walk slowly."
Not waiting for Nianyun to answer, she has returned to the dormitory to serve.
Nianyun didn't see Qin Zhao, so he could only guess from Baozhu's words that Qin Zhao was really pregnant, otherwise Qin Zhao wouldn't vomit early in the morning.
She returned to the Cihe Palace and reported the matter to the Queen Mother Guo.
"It's vague, and it doesn't get to the point." Queen Mother Guo made a decision after listening.
Nianyun felt that the Queen Mother Guo's words came to the point, but she still couldn't understand: "If Miss Qin is not pregnant, she will just say that she is not, why bother to make trouble all over the city? The servant thought that it should be pregnant, but Miss Qin It's just making fun of it."
The Empress Dowager Guo frowned: "Let's see what tricks Qin Shi is playing. If she is pregnant, it is also a merit. If Qin Shi is pretending to be mysterious and using the emperor's heir as an article, Aijia won't forgive her!"
Nianyun replied in a low voice, feeling that Qin Zhao didn't have the courage to make fun of the emperor.
Qin Zhao asked Baoyu to pay attention to the movement of the harem. Baoyu knew what happened in the harem without inquiring carefully.
"This matter is getting bigger and bigger. Everyone says that the girl is pregnant with the imperial heir. The slaves are afraid that if this continues, things will get out of hand." Baoyu's heart was a little heavy.
This is a major event related to the emperor's heir, and the girl actually used this kind of thing to test the reaction of the concubines and concubines in the harem.
Although the emperor also knew that the girl was not pregnant, the Queen Mother Guo was not so easy to pass up. In the future, when Empress Dowager Guo knows that the girl is not pregnant, will she not take the opportunity to punish the girl?
