Chapter 691: I'm happy, I'm really pregnant this time
Dugu Liancheng had always been unable to do anything against Mu Ci, and this time he was at a disadvantage, so he had to let her go in the end.
Two days later, the news about Mu Ci's false pregnancy, instead of being suppressed, became more and more intense.
A group of courtiers headed by the Marquis of Ningchang were determined to find an imperial doctor to diagnose Mu Ci's pulse, and kept putting pressure on Dugu Liancheng.
Even though Dugu Liancheng dealt with the two officials, the effect was very little. This situation was very abnormal, and there were even rumors that Dugu Liancheng was a country-destroying king.
When Mu Ci first heard that Marquis Ningchang was taking the lead in making trouble, the first thing he thought of was that Dugu Lianyun had taken action.
Dugu Lianyun may be the driving force behind planning this incident.
The Marquis of Ningchang and the Zhou family were related by marriage. The Zhou family regarded Dugu Lianyun as their master son, and the legitimate daughter of the Marquis of Ningchang married the King of Zhou. This series of relationships had to make people think about the seriousness of this matter.
And she is the source of the trouble. If this matter is not handled well, it will definitely lead to disaster.
After thinking about complicated issues for a while, she felt dizzy again and yawned repeatedly.
"Your Majesty, you can go to sleep if you want. Leave the complicated matters to the Emperor." As soon as Yingchun saw Mu Ci's look, she knew that her sleepyhead was coming.
Mu Ci nodded and replied, "I don't know what's wrong with me these days. I feel very sleepy."
Sizhu looked at Mu Ci and hesitated to speak.
Mu Ci didn't see Sizhu's strange expression. She touched the bed and fell asleep.
Seeing Mu Ci's careless look, Sizhu couldn't hold back what she had been saying for a long time: "My queen, please don't sleep yet. I have something to say..."
Mu Ci looked at her with a confused expression.
Her expression made Sizhu couldn't help laughing: "Why does the empress look like a child?"
Mu Ci had a question mark on his face, "Is there any?"
She just felt sleepy, and her brain didn't seem to be as flexible as before.
"Your Majesty's confinement period has not come for some time." Sizhu sighed softly.
The emperor could not remember this incident. Although it was recorded in Tongshi, the empress was "pregnant", so the absence of the confinement was within the normal range, and this incident did not attract anyone's attention.
The emperor is confused, why is the empress so confused? She doesn't remember these so-called "little things" at all.
It took a while for Mu Ci to turn her head around. She looked at her belly: "You mean, maybe I'm really pregnant?"
"Otherwise? I can't think of other possibilities. Your Majesty's pregnancy symptoms came late." Sizhu paused and then said, "How about asking Mr. Zhang to come over and check your Majesty's pulse?"
Although the empress herself can diagnose pulse, it would be safer to ask Dr. Zhang to come over.
A flash of sharpness flashed in Mu Ci's eyes: "There is no need to ask Mr. Zhang for this matter, I can do it myself."
As she spoke, she sat upright and placed her fingers on her pulse.
After a while, she was surprised and happy. She took her pulse again and it was still slippery. She was indeed pregnant.
She thought again of Dr. Zhang's strange reaction last time.
At that time, she only thought that Dr. Zhang was good at acting, but it turned out that Dr. Zhang had discovered her happy pulse that time. But why didn't Dugu Liancheng know about this important matter?
Could it be that Doctor Zhang thought that both Dugu Liancheng and her knew the good news, so he didn't report it to Dugu Liancheng?
Dr. Zhang, who was in the Taiyuan Hospital, really found it unbelievable.
The emperor has been forced into this by the civil and military officials, why not simply ask the imperial doctor to check Mu Xiuyi's pulse, so that the rumors will be self-defeating.
It's just that others are very soft-spoken and dare not give advice to the emperor casually.
After he went to Yong'an Palace to check Mu Xiuyi's pulse that day, the emperor never ordered him to go to Yong'an Palace again. He once thought that the emperor did not value Mu Xiuyi's pregnancy...
In Yong'an Palace, the moment the four maids learned that Mu Ci was happy, everyone was filled with joy.
Mu Ci also found it funny when he saw them like this.
"Okay, keep a low profile. If you go out like this, even the blind will know that there is a happy event in Yong'an Palace. Don't make any announcement about my pregnancy for the time being. The emperor will keep it a secret for now." Mu Ci touched his belly, his eyebrows were gentle.
Shameless: "This child really knows how to take care of his parents' worries. He is a good boy."
Perhaps this was the child from the previous life who had not had time to be born and was reincarnated again, choosing the best time to come into her womb.
"Yes, he must be a well-behaved and sensible little prince, just like the empress." Sizhu's voice was high.
"But this slave girl is so happy that she can't close her mouth." Yingchun said, her mouth widening again.
Seeing their silly looks, Mu Ci also laughed.
Liu Xin was cleaning the outer hall, but could not enter the inner hall and could not know the situation in the inner hall.
She has never been so disgusted with her low status as she is now. If she were a first-class palace maid, she would be able to monitor Mu Ci's every move.
Just as she was cursing, Yingchun walked towards her with a dark face.
Something must have happened to Mu Ci to make Yingchun look so ugly.
Thinking of this, she found an opportunity and stepped forward to talk to Yingchun: "Aunt Yingchun doesn't look well. What's wrong?"
Yingchun seemed to have just seen Liu Xin. She sighed: "Isn't it because Empress Xiuyi is unhappy? Empress Xiuyi's pregnancy is a good and happy event, but why are there so many ministers making things difficult for the emperor? Empress Xiuyi knows that the emperor has been
The adults are in trouble and feel unhappy, so they lost their temper just now, so I will inevitably suffer."
Liu Xinji thought: "This is just a small matter in the first place, so why not just ask the imperial doctor to check the empress's pulse? Wouldn't the problem be solved easily?"
Is it because Mu Ci faked her pregnancy and felt guilty, so she didn’t dare to take a pregnancy test?
"What's so good about feeling the pulse here? Mr. Zhang has already taken the pulse for the Queen last time, and the Queen herself can feel the pulse. She doesn't know whether she is pregnant or not? Why bother?" Yingchun replied disdainfully.
Liu Xin sneered in her heart.
Mu Ci clearly didn't dare to let anyone check her pulse because of a guilty conscience. Did Yingchun really think she was a fool?
Nowadays, who in the entire harem doesn’t know that Mu Ci went out of the cold palace and pretended to be pregnant, thus committing the crime of deceiving the emperor?
She was thinking something in her mind, but the expression on her face was as usual: "What my aunt said is that since it is unnecessary, there is no need to find an imperial doctor to diagnose Xiuyi's pulse. It's just that the emperor is too embarrassed, and now he is jointly reported by all the adults. It seems.
Only if Empress Xiuyi accepts a pregnancy test can we stop everyone in the world from talking about it, and can the emperor no longer be in trouble."
After Yingchun listened carefully to Liu Xin's words, she nodded repeatedly: "It does make some sense. I'll go talk to the empress. Maybe the empress can solve the emperor's urgent need."
Liu Xin was dumbfounded when she heard this.
She just said it casually. Why is Yingchun so stupid? Do you really want to go to Mu Ci to make suggestions?
Didn't the imperial doctor know about Mu Ci's false pregnancy once he examined her?
Or is it that Mu Ci already has a way to deal with it and thinks he can get away with it?
She watched Yingchun return to the inner hall, and then left Yong'an Palace to report the news to Yao Feier.
Yao Feier was also a little surprised when she received the news from Liu Xin.
