Sister Sun had a miscarriage?
An Lingrong stood up in shock. The tea cup in his hand accidentally fell to the ground and broke into four or five pieces.
Fortunately, several people said that after a while, the tea was already cold, so there was no need to worry about burns.
Ignoring all this, An Lingrong asked hurriedly, "How could this happen? Okay, how could Concubine Cheng have a miscarriage?"
An Lingrong was usually quiet and calm, and this was the first time Shen Meizhuang and Zhen Huan saw her lose her composure.
However, considering that they usually have a good relationship with the concubines, and the emperor's new favorite mistress is indeed not a trivial matter, it is not surprising that they were shocked.
Since Shen Meizhuang knew that Sun Miaoqing had a false pregnancy, he knew that this day would come sooner or later, but he didn't know who Sun Miaoqing would blame for this.
He stood up and took An Lingrong's hand, "Don't be anxious yet, listen to Caiyue carefully."
"Caiyue, please explain slowly what is going on."
Caiyue said, "Reporting to my little master, Concubine Cheng had uneasy fetal movements today and sent someone to invite the Emperor over."
"The imperial doctor said that Concubine Cheng was worried so much that she had fetal convulsions and that she needed to take a good rest. So the emperor stayed in the Furong Pavilion to talk to Concubine Cheng."
"Later, people from Yangxin Hall reported that the former minister had something to ask for, and the emperor was about to leave. Unexpectedly, the Buddhist beads hanging on the bedside fell to the ground for some reason, and the emperor stepped on them without noticing."
"Seeing that the emperor was about to fall, Concubine Cheng rushed to help him, and they fell to the ground together with the emperor. At that time, he saw red."
"The emperor's leg was also injured. Concubine Hua and Concubine Jing have already passed away. My young master, you should go as well."
Shen Meizhuang nodded, "Go down and get ready, I'll be out soon."
The queen is still ill, so Concubine Hua is in charge of the harem, and Concubine Jing is in charge of her. Regardless of whether she has real power or not, if something like this happens, she must go.
Shen Meizhuang turned to An Lingrong and Zhen Huan and said, "You two chat for now. I'll go over and take a look first, and I'll talk to you in detail when I come back."
Zhen Huan said, "Okay, Sister Mei, go ahead and remember to be careful."
Shen Meizhuang replied, "I know, just don't worry."
After Shen Meizhuang finished speaking, he left in a hurry. An Lingrong kept walking back and forth in the room, unable to sit still at all.
"Sister Huan, this prayer bead is hung so well, why did it suddenly fall to the ground and be stepped on by the emperor?"
"Do you think this is really just an accident?"
Zhen Huan said, "I don't know either. I'll wait until Sister Mei comes back. If it's really an accident, there must be clues."
Although she is smart, she has been staying in Suiyuxuan these days and her knowledge is limited. A lot of information came from An Lingrong and Shen Meizhuang.
Although I don’t know the specific details, this thing sounds weird, but are Sun Miaoqing and the emperor so easy to be plotted?

After Shen Meizhuang arrived at Furong Pavilion, Zhang Mi was treating the injury on Big Fat Orange's hand.
Concubine Hua sat next to Big Fat Orange and looked in the direction of the dormitory with a solemn expression. There was a sound coming from inside, Sun Miaoqing's cry of pain.
"Concubine, see the emperor, see the concubine Hua."
Concubine Hua said, "Concubine Jing went in just now and never came out. You should also go and take a look to see what's going on inside."
Shen Meizhuang glanced at Big Fat Orange and saw that he had a cold face, his clothes were half-unbuttoned and his arms were exposed. He was sitting there without any superfluous reaction, but his eyes looked very hurt...
"Yes, I understand."
After Shen Meizhuang entered, Concubine Jing was talking to Imperial Physician Lu. When she saw Shen Meizhuang coming, she quickly called her over.
The two of them saw that Dr. Lu's hand was bright red and he was wiping it with a snow-white handkerchief.
Inside the gauze tent, Sun Miaoqing was sweating profusely in pain and kept wailing inside. There was a large amount of blood on the sheets and quilt.
It looks like a murder scene...
Shen Meizhuang frowned, this was too much of a pretense, wasn't it a false pregnancy? How could he bleed so much? Hemorrhage due to dystocia during childbirth, it’s nothing more than that!
I don’t know where she got all this from, it’s all dripping down the sheets!
Seeing such a bloody scene, Concubine Jing felt her heart tightening and she couldn't even take another look. After bleeding so much, are you really still alive?
"Mr. Lu, how is Concubine Cheng's condition? Can the child be saved?"
Dr. Lu said, "In reply to Concubine Cheng, Concubine Cheng has been frightened and worried these days. She has unstable fetal energy and needs to take medicine to rest."
"This time, in order to save the emperor, my stomach hit the pedal when I fell. So much blood was shed. This dragon fetus... please forgive me for my incompetence."
Shen Meizhuang said, "What about Concubine Cheng? Is she in danger?"
Dr. Lu said, "Your Majesty, please rest assured that Concubine Cheng has always been in good health. Although her condition is not very good now, her life is not in danger."
Concubine Jing said, "In this case, please ask Dr. Lu to treat Concubine Cheng properly."
Doctor Lu said, "Wei Chen understands."
After the two went out, Concubine Hua asked, "How is the situation? What did the imperial doctor say? Can Sister Sun's dragon fetus be saved?"
Concubine Jing said, "Reporting to the emperor, the imperial doctor said that Concubine Cheng had fetal dysphoria. When she fell, her belly happened to hit the footrest."
"With so much blood, the child cannot be saved. Fortunately, Concubine Cheng is strong, so her life is not in danger."
Big Fat Orange lowered his eyes and said in a low voice, "It's my fault for causing Concubine Cheng to suffer."
"I don't know, but when I got up, I suddenly felt dizzy, so I stretched out my hand to hold on to the bed frame."
"I was so flustered that I didn't notice the Thousand-Eyed Bodhi Beads hanging beside the bed. Concubine Cheng was also anxious to help me, so she fell on the footrest."
"Thousand Eyes Bodhi Bead String?"
Concubine Jing looked at the string of Buddhist beads placed beside her and said in surprise, "Isn't this what the Queen Mother gave to Concubine Cheng a few days ago?"
"How could...such a thing happen?"
Concubine Hua said, "I remember that this string of Buddhist beads was given to the Queen Mother by the late Emperor when the Fourteenth Master went on his first expedition. The Queen Mother used this string of Thousand Eyes Bodhi beads to pray for the Fourteenth Master every day."
"I gave this string of Buddhist beads to Sister Sun. I originally hoped that Sister Sun would be the emperor and give birth to a prince safely, but I didn't expect that such a thing would happen."
"The Queen Mother did not want such an accident. How sad it would be if the Queen Mother knew that her good intentions had harmed Sister Sun and the Emperor's child."
Hearing this, the fat man's lowered head turned slightly to the side, and the way he looked at the string of Buddhist beads made Shen Meizhuang frightened.
However, Concubine Hua felt particularly relieved. It was rare for her to take a good look at Concubine Jing, and she found that Concubine Jing's eyes were exactly the same as hers, but they were hidden deeper.
But no matter how deep the secret is, it still cannot be hidden from her because the two of them are from the same family.
Big Fat Orange didn't notice that he was dealing with these lawsuits in front of him, and he was just worrying about himself and losing another child.
Although Fang Guiren and Xin Changzai's children were gone, although he was also sad, it was extremely limited.
He had just ascended the throne at that time, and he had to guard against the death of his brothers. He also had to organize the court and place his cronies in important places. He couldn't devote much thought to the harem.
But Sun Miaoqing's pregnancy was different. He had high hopes for this child. Ever since he found out that Sun Miaoqing was pregnant, he had been looking forward to having an elder brother. Not only did he not have many sons, but also because he had children, his expectations could come true.
For this reason, he had endured Sun Miaoqing's various noisy and petty tempers in the past few months. He also had to take time to play the piano and read to her, saying that the children born in this way would be smart.
So much hard work and energy was put into it, but now it’s all in vain.
Or is it because of this string of beads that should not have existed long ago...
