Everyone was shocked when they heard this, and they all looked at Xia Luotong's belly, their eyes filled with disbelief!
Princess An is pregnant? Haven't heard of it? !
When did this happen? Why is there no news at all?
"How can it be!"
The Queen, Xia Zhihe and others subconsciously exclaimed. In their opinion, Xia Luotong had already taken Juezi Decoction, how could she be pregnant with a child? !
And if she was really pregnant, why did she have to hide it for so long? If I had told you earlier, wouldn't this matter have happened today?
If Xia Luotong is really pregnant, will Prince An not respond?
Thinking of this, they quickly looked at Wu Zechen and saw Wu Zechen glanced at Xia Luotong beside him as if he was surprised, but in the end he said nothing and continued drinking with his head slightly lowered.
From this point of view, coupled with some speculation, the queen, Xia Zhihe and others immediately concluded that Xia Luotong must be lying! Just to solve the current situation!
But before they could attack, Xia Luotong spoke first.
"How is it possible? Is it weird that I'm pregnant?" Xia Luotong immediately grasped this point and asked with anger on his face.
She couldn't say this to the queen, but she could say it to the Xia family!
When Xia Zhihe was asked this question, a hint of guilt flashed in his eyes, and there was a bit of embarrassment on his face. He was secretly annoyed that he had been too surprised just now and couldn't control it well.
But when Xia Zhihe thought that Xia Luotong dared to tell such a big lie in a desperate situation, he couldn't help but feel happy in his heart. Did this just put the opportunity in their hands?
He immediately said: "We are just curious. Since the princess is pregnant, how come no one knows about it?"
"It's just that I just got pregnant, so I haven't had time to say anything yet." Xia Luotong's eyes dodge a little.
Seeing this, Xia Zhihe became more confident and immediately said: "If the princess is pregnant with an heir, it will naturally be a great joy. Why not take advantage of the emperor's birthday party to invite the imperial doctor to come and confirm the matter, so that the emperor can be happy."
"Exactly." The emperor, who had never spoken before, now also spoke up.
As soon as the emperor affirmed, everyone knew that the emperor acquiesced in this matter.
For a moment, everyone present had different expressions, wondering what the emperor's intentions were.
However, Xia Zhihe's reaction also made many people confused. After all, Xia Zhihe didn't look happy. Instead, he looked serious, as if he didn't believe that Xia Luotong was pregnant.
Even the emperor spoke, but Xia Luotong looked even more nervous, and his face was not as calm as usual.
"I am indeed pregnant. How can I not be clear about my own body? There is no need to find a doctor."
At this point, he was still refusing. Not to mention the Queen, Xia Zhihe and others, even the people who were paying attention to what was going on here showed doubtful looks.
After all, even the emperor has spoken, and Princess An is still refusing. How can she be suspicious?
If she is really pregnant, what's the harm in having her pulse checked by the imperial doctor?
Xia Zhihe felt happy. In his opinion, after these repeated tests, this unfilial daughter was definitely lying! And I must have already known that I can't get pregnant!
It was precisely because he knew the condition of his body that Xia Luotong was so resistant to letting the imperial doctor take his pulse, in order to prevent the news that he could not get pregnant from spreading!
No more delay! Otherwise, there is no guarantee that Xia Luotong will come up with other countermeasures to deal with this matter after today's incident, and he might even fake a pregnancy to deceive others!
Xia Zhihe glanced at the queen and saw the queen calmly nodding towards him, and immediately made up his mind.
"Hey, Princess, don't hide it from everyone anymore. This kind of thing can't be hidden for long." Xia Zhihe sighed softly, and sure enough, he saw a flash of panic in Xia Luotong's eyes.
"I don't know what Mr. Xia is talking about."
If you listen carefully, you will find that Xia Luotong's voice seems to be a little more trembling, and his eyes are no longer as strong as before.
"The princess is not pregnant at all." Although it was a question, Xia Zhihe said it with certainty.
"Nonsense! I'm really pregnant! Just because Mr. Xia doesn't know, it doesn't mean I'm not pregnant!" Xia Luotong said anxiously.
"The reason why I say this is because you, Princess..."
Xia Zhihe paused for a moment. Seeing that everyone around him was paying attention to himself, a sneer flashed across his eyes, and then he continued: "Because Princess, you can't have children at all! You can't have children at all!"
What? !
Princess An is actually sterile? !
This news is quite exciting! No wonder Princess An’s belly has not moved even after being married into Prince An’s Mansion for so long!
There was a sound of inhaling, and all kinds of eyes suddenly converged on Xia Luotong, some sympathetic and some contemptuous.
Everyone was talking a lot. Although their voices were not loud, they knew that most of the things they said were not good things.
"You are slandering!" Xia Luotong shouted angrily, as if he was covering up his guilty conscience with anger.
At this time, the Queen, who had been silent for a while, suddenly spoke again: "Master Xia, you can't say this nonsense."
Although it was a reminder, the queen said it lightly, and it was obviously just for show.
"Queen, I am not just talking nonsense. When Princess An was in our Xia Mansion, a doctor once checked her pulse and said that she was physically disabled and would not be able to give birth to offspring in this life." Xia Zhihe said in a loud voice.
Seeing Xia Zhihe say such words so firmly, the more people believed his words, they felt that since the Xia family had already been informed by Princess An, they would naturally have no heirs!
The discussion became louder now, and even the bold ones pointed at Xia Luotong, and the discussion became more and more unpleasant.
"You can't have children!" The queen exclaimed in mock shock, and even the emperor and others on the side looked surprised.
Xia Luotong's face turned pale. He gritted his teeth and looked at Xia Zhihe and said, "It's really ridiculous. Even if Mr. Xia doesn't recognize my daughter, there's no need to curse me like this, right?"
"What's more, if I really can't conceive, does that mean that Mr. Xia is deceiving the king? He actually knew that his daughter was infertile, but he still concealed it and allowed his daughter to marry into Prince An's palace?"
A flash of embarrassment flashed in Xia Zhihe's eyes, but he had forgotten about this incident, but it was not a big problem. He thought about it and had the answer: "It was when the princess returned to the mansion after her wedding, and she was in Xia Mansion when she felt unwell. I found out by checking the pulse, but Xia Mansion didn’t know about this before.”
"Why don't I remember asking the doctor to check my pulse in the Xia Mansion?" Xia Luotong said through gritted teeth.
"It's not important." Xia Zhihe's eyes flashed slightly, "The fact is that the princess cannot give birth to offspring at all. This is an indisputable fact, so what you just said about the pregnancy, princess, is simply a lie!"
This daughter was about to give up, and Xia Zhihe didn't want to be conceited anymore, so he said with a stern and firm expression.
"You're talking nonsense..."
"That's enough! Send the imperial doctor!"
No longer giving Xia Luotong a chance to speak, the emperor called the imperial doctor with an angry look on his face and looked at Xia Luotong with an evil look.
