Everyone in the hall was stunned when they heard this. They looked at each other and all looked at Doctor Wen, waiting for his next words.
Doctor Wen knew that if he couldn't say the following words well, his life would depend on it. He fell to his knees and kowtowed heavily, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, the Second Young Lady is no longer perfect."
For a time, there was a lot of discussion in the court, and everyone speculated who the biological father of the child was. Xie Shaoheng, who was sitting above, his face darkened, and he clutched the corners of his clothes tightly. He acted so cautiously, how could she...
A trace of doubt flashed in Xie Shaoheng's eyes. Every time he gave the medicine to her, Linfeng was his most proud assistant and would never make mistakes. Or was there something wrong with the medicine...
Xiang Jinzhu looked at Shen Qinghe who fell to the ground in pain. Could it be that she had been colluding with Xie Shaoheng for a long time? No wonder Xie Shaoheng couldn't wait to bring her into his house after marrying Zhiyi.
I see
Emperor Jing was sitting on a high dragon chair, his face terrifyingly gloomy. He looked at Shen Qinghe below, the anger burning in his heart. It would be fine if it were an ordinary day, but today the Shen family let people from the Tianshu Kingdom watch the joke, and his old face was almost lost.
"Shen Qinghe, tell me, who is the biological father of this child?"
Now that the matter was so big, Shen Qinghe knelt on the ground, his face pale and his heart panicked.
"Yes, sister, you were kept hidden by that man. I believe that sister must not have done it voluntarily. If she was forced by the gangster, tell us so that we can give you justice." Shen Zhiyi walked leisurely from the side. He walked out, leaned down slightly, and chuckled.
Shen Qinghe knew in her heart that it was her who was responsible, but she had no evidence, so she could only suffer the loss of being dumb.
"Shen Qinghe, do you still want to hide it now?" Xiang Jinzhu's voice was cold and stern, full of majesty. She knew in her heart that this child was Xie Shaoheng's, and she knew that the suffering she had suffered because of her in her previous life had finally been repaid.
Pregnancy before marriage, the formality between men and women, no matter how noble Shen Qinghe was born, he would be dragged into the quagmire by this etiquette, and even if he got up, he would be stained with a pool of mud that could not be washed away.
What's more, these scandalous things have been brought to the attention of the Tianshu Kingdom. Dongling's rituals are well-known in various countries. Many poems and books come from Dongling. What's more, they even sent envoys to Dongling to learn some rituals and calligraphy. Now Shen Qinghe Dongling's face has been lost to the enemy country because of her.
"I would like to ask you, who is the child in your belly?" Concubine Duan stood up. Although she was afraid of the Shen family, she was even more afraid that Shen Zhiyi would marry Xie Shaoheng. In this way, King Hengyuan would gain the power of the Shen family. The position of crown prince must be his.
Everyone in the court was speechless at the moment. Many people noticed Shen An's expression, as if he was preparing to see his joke. Jiang Yubai was sitting on it, watching everything Shen Zhiyi arranged.
Xiang Jinzhu died early in her previous life, and she passed away before she had time to find evidence for many things. How could Shen Qinghe be so stupid in this life because of his clever methods? And her intentions, she seemed to be able to predict their intentions and methods at every step.
She knelt down and stroked her cheek like a loving mother. A hint of hatred flashed in her eyes, as if she wanted to crush her. Outsiders didn't know their situation, let alone Shen Qinghe. Angry heart.
Since she wants to act, I will accompany her.
"Although you are not my biological child, the Shen family treats you well. When did they treat you harshly in terms of food and clothing? If you have any grievances, the imperial concubine, His Majesty and all the courtiers can make the decision for you today."
This is true. Every time there is a banquet, the Shen family always brings the second young lady with them. They spend money lavishly on weekdays. When Mrs. Xiang said this, she must have been wronged in some way.
"Yes, sister, who is this child's biological flesh and blood? If you tell us, we will definitely make the decision for you. You have been taught etiquette in poems and books since you were a child. You will never forget this etiquette. Someone must have forced you to do so."
Her sharp eyes looked back and forth on Shen Qinghe, and when she saw that her face was pale and panicked, she took her hand and said, "If my sister is covering up, that would be a serious crime, and you don't want the child in your belly to die with you." Bar."
Then she leaned down and whispered in her ear with a voice that only two people could hear clearly, "If he is a prince, would your Majesty be willing to give up this royal blood?"
The child in her belly was a real grandson when she was born. She no longer had to look at the Shen family's face. She became Princess Hengyuan. With the power of Prince Hengyuan, what did she want?
She could also rely on the child in her belly. A mother is more valuable than her child. Now that her pregnancy has been exposed, if she does not tell the true identity of the child in her belly, even her own life may be in danger.
"It's... King Hengyuan." Her voice trembled, and every word seemed to be squeezed out from the depths of her throat.
The accusations in the court fell silent for an instant, and Xie Shaoheng's face became even more gloomy. He wanted to rush forward and tear Shen Qinghe apart with his hands. This bitch was so stupid that she insisted on telling the truth in this situation.
Xue Xiao, the eldest son of the Imperial Censor of Zuodu, sat next to him and felt a chill, and moved his position instantly. He knew the prince's temper, and would usually just joke and quarrel with him, but at this juncture.
It's better not to cause any trouble.
Prince Rui is a person who doesn't take things too seriously when it comes to making fun. He would be sorry for himself if he didn't make a few jokes when he takes this opportunity.
"It's still Wang Fengliu of Hengyuan who says he wants to marry Miss Shen, but he can't bear to part with Miss Shen's body."
These words pushed the two of them to the forefront. Shen Qinghe knelt down in the hall in panic. Her mind was in chaos. The pregnancy was completely beyond her expectation. She wanted to explain, but didn't know where to start. She secretly looked at Xie Shaoheng, only to find that he was staring at her, his eyes full of confusion and anger.
Concubine Duan looked pale, this matter was very difficult. The emperor's grandson was in Shen Zhiyi's womb, so he could neither beat nor punish him. Shen Qinghe was smart and pushed King Hengyuan out, making the concubine throw down her sleeves in anger and get down from the banquet.
Xie Shaoheng was her son and the person he valued most. Shen Qinghe suddenly appeared and speculated on her son's innocence for no reason. In her heart, Xie Shaoheng's innocence and reputation were very important and could not be slandered by anyone.
Emperor Jing looked embarrassed, and Shen Qinghe had unbearable abdominal pain. She bit her lower lip tightly, trying not to moan in pain.
Shen Zhiyi couldn't help but sneer at her little cleverness. How could it be so easy for a mother to be more valuable than her son? Now it is just confirmed that she and Xie Shaoheng are having an affair.
There were many ministers in the court whispering. For a moment, their scrutinizing eyes were focused on her face. Shen Zhiyi turned around and said, "King Hengyuan, you want my sister. When you asked His Majesty to betroth the daughter of the Shen family to you, you I have already fallen in love with my sister, so it must be that King Hengyuan was so impatient that he confused his memory."
Xie Shaoheng knew that this was not a good time to explain. No matter what he says, it will be used as an excuse or a cover-up.
"King Hengyuan intends to get married to the Shen family, and he also likes my sister, so it is normal for my sister to be pregnant. It is my sister who wants to win. Since she is the child of King Hengyuan, I will send her to the Xie family." Shen Zhiyi Standing in front of Shen Qinghe with a big belly, his expression was as cold as ice, and he spoke.
In this case, this is a consensual matter. If the woman behaves inappropriately, the man... naturally won't be much better.
Fu Ling has been with the young lady for so many years and has seen many young ladies being bullied by the second young lady. Now the young lady has been holding back for so long and slapped her hard. There are more cases of mothers leaving children in the backyard of the palace, not to mention Shen Qinghe. This caused King Hengyuan to lose face in front of the enemy country.
The young lady told herself that the concubine of King Hengyuan, Ling Fei, was a difficult woman to deal with, and her scheming methods could torture a living person to the point where he could no longer live or die.
When your concubine heard this, she was angry. Her son hadn't even married yet, so this ungrateful bitch actually wanted to give him a concubine? Just as she was about to speak angrily, Concubine Duan raised her hand to stop her.
"Is it possible that King Hengyuan doesn't want to be responsible for my sister?"
Concubine Duan sneered in her heart, Shen Zhiyi was using Xie Shaoheng as a shield. She wanted to see if Xie Shaoheng dared to take the blame?
Sure enough, when Xie Shaoheng heard this, his eyes instantly turned cold. He glanced at Shen Zhiyi lightly and said, "Second Miss Shen came to my house in the middle of the night and offered herself a pillow. I drank a few glasses of wine and made a big mistake."
Shen Qinghe was speechless. She didn't dare to refute. She didn't dare to offend King Hengyuan. If she could make him happy, it would be easier to marry her. She looked at Shen Zhiyi standing there and humiliated her so openly that she wished she could do it with her own hands. Kill this bitch!
How could she be like this if she hadn't added fuel and vinegar in the middle?
If she hadn't insisted on finding an imperial doctor, how could anyone have discovered her pregnancy?
Prince Rui didn't care, he chuckled, "Prince Hengyuan and the second lady of the Shen family are both the golden boys and girls in the imperial city. They were a match made in heaven, but now that there is such a misunderstanding, wouldn't it make people laugh? "
Cen Fengxing poured wine for the Prince Regent and looked at the good show in the audience. "Miss Shen is a little too courageous. She makes everyone in the palace look around."
This group of people are all officials of the imperial court. If anyone carefully considers Shen Zhiyi's words, even if they are not discovered now, they will realize something is wrong in the future. These words are completely targeting them and leading them by the nose.
The regent sneered. Now there are only a few people who can still sit firmly in their seats and have nothing to do with themselves. "Aren't you also brave? Don't think that I don't know that you have transferred the child-avoiding medicine from King Hengyuan's hands." ”
“Helping others is just a matter of doing one good deed every day.”
Prince Rui looked at Shen Qinghe, with a hint of cunning in his eyes, "Miss Shen, I have good intentions. Besides, who in the imperial city doesn't know that Prince Hengyuan has a deep friendship. Now that such a misunderstanding has occurred, wouldn't it make people feel that King Hengyuan started in chaos and finally gave up?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone was stunned. Starting in chaos and finally giving up is not a good word. If King Hengyuan is labeled like this, his reputation will be ruined.
Your concubine rushed over and accused Shen Qinghe, a bitch, of seducing her son for not following the rules of women.
Prince Rui didn't care about Xie Shaoheng's attitude. He picked up the tea cup leisurely and contentedly, "Your Majesty, your words are wrong. The second young lady of the Shen family is so beautiful and recommends herself as a pillow. It's strange that Prince Hengyuan is not moved."
Prince Rui's words fell on Shen Qinghe's heart like a knife. She stared at Shen Zhiyi, the anger in her heart almost engulfing her.
How dare this bitch stand there so arrogantly and trample her dignity under her feet!
She clenched her fists and dug her nails into her palms. The pain made her calm down a little.
Shen Zhiyi, just wait for me!
Shen Zhiyi knew that Prince Rui and Prince Hengyuan were eyeing the position of the crown prince, and she did not expect the speed at which they fell into trouble. How could friendship come from being born into an emperor's family? It was just for profit.
Jiang Yubai watched the game played by his apprentice in the audience. He learned it very quickly, but every move was dangerous. This was like him. He could calculate people's hearts in front of the public. Before, he was small and delicate. Got her.
The corner of Jiang Yubai's mouth raised slightly, and a hint of cunning flashed in his eyes, "Mr. Wen, how old is the baby in Miss Shen's belly?"
As soon as these words came out, Shen Qinghe and Xie Shaoheng felt cold at the same time. The anger and humiliation in their hearts made it almost impossible for her to calm down.
This child was most likely conceived in Jiyun Temple. Shen Qinghe went to Jiyun Temple to pray for the late empress and atone for her sins. The result was to have an affair with him. If Emperor Jing knew about it, he would definitely not let them go.
