Chapter 216 Consort Fucha
Just then, footsteps suddenly came from afar.
It looked like a group of people were walking in their direction.
Zhen Huan and Fu Yu Rao exchanged a glance, both feeling a sense of unease.
The two quickly composed themselves and resumed their nonchalant demeanor.
When they saw who it was, they were all quite surprised.
It turned out that Big Fatty Orange had brought Su Peisheng to the Imperial Garden again.
Big Orange was somewhat surprised to see Zhen Huan and Fu Yu Rao there.
"Huanhuan, Yu Rao, how did you two end up together?"
"Huanhuan, how are you feeling?"
When Zhen Huan and Fu Yu Rao saw the big, fat orange, they immediately stood up and bowed.
The chubby orange cat first reached out to help Zhen Huan up, then reached out to help Fu Yurao up, his gaze sweeping over the two of them.
Zhen Huan smiled and said softly:
"Your Majesty, I feel much better today."
Feeling particularly relaxed, I thought I'd take a walk in the Imperial Garden to clear my head.
Unexpectedly, as soon as I arrived at this place, I heard a melodious pipa tune that captivated me.
I was involuntarily drawn in by that beautiful voice.
Following the sound of the pipa, they unexpectedly encountered Consort Zhao.
Consort Zhao is truly a rare beauty! Your Majesty,
Your judgment is indeed excellent; it remains as good as ever.
Zhen Huan's words were somewhat sarcastic.
She remembered what Ulanara Yixiu had once said—"Wanwan is like you."
It was then that she realized she was nothing more than a substitute for Empress Chun Yuan in the Emperor's heart, which made her feel extremely humiliated.
She always had a high opinion of herself, believing that she was not only exceptionally beautiful but also exceptionally talented.
He even mocked Nian Shilan for using her looks to please men.
She later learned that she was nothing more than a substitute for someone else, which was a great irony.
What Zhen Huan didn't expect was that even her sister would suffer the same fate.
Thinking of this, her hatred for the emperor intensified.
The chubby orange cat was a little embarrassed for a moment.
But he is the emperor, how could he be wrong? The whole world belongs to him.
He simply chose two women he liked.
The big orange cat's smile only froze for a moment.
He then smiled and said, "Consort Zhao is still young, so naturally she cannot compare to Huanhuan."
Huanhuan's talent and beauty are unmatched in the entire harem!
Big Fatty Orange tried to smooth things over, but his eyes couldn't help but linger on Fu Yurao for a few more seconds.
Fu Yurao lowered her head slightly, avoiding the gaze of the chubby orange cat.
Their hearts were filled with disgust for the old emperor.
Zhen Huan naturally did not want to hear him belittle her sister like that.
So she smiled slightly and said softly:
"Your Majesty, I think Consort Zhao is both beautiful and talented, and she is very pleasing to my eye."
Upon hearing this, the chubby orange cat smiled and then chimed in:
"If Huanhuan says it's good, then it's naturally good."
Zhen Huan gently covered the corner of her mouth with a handkerchief and coughed a few times.
"Your Majesty, I have been out for some time now, and I feel rather tired."
"Let's go back to Suiyu Pavilion to rest first."
Zhen Huan spoke slowly.
The chubby orange quickly asked with concern, "Huanhuan is not feeling well, so let me take you back."
Zhen Huan quickly waved her hand, politely declining:
Your Majesty, my health is truly failing me; I fear I will be unable to serve you well.
"It would be terrible if the illness were to pass to the Emperor. Your Majesty should spend more time with Consort Zhao."
After hearing this, the chubby orange dog hesitated for a moment, but ultimately nodded.
"Then you must take good care of yourself when you go back. I will visit you another day."
Having said that, he turned to Su Peisheng and instructed him:
"Su Peisheng, quickly send Consort Wan back to the palace."
Zhen Huan curtsied and turned to leave with Jin Yue.
A few days later, Fucha Peiyun had just finished lunch and was preparing to rest for a while.
Suddenly, Xue'er rushed in, her face pale and panting, and reported:
"Your Majesty, something terrible has happened! Consort Shun of Yanxi Palace has started bleeding!"
Upon hearing this, Fucha Peiyun's heart tightened, and she quickly asked:
"Could we ask the imperial physician to come and treat him?"
How is the situation with the Nobleman?
Xue'er quickly replied, "We've already sent someone to fetch the imperial physician, but we don't know the specifics yet."
Fucha Peiyun frowned deeply, pondering to herself.
This Consort Shun conceived using a pregnancy-enhancing pill.
Normally, it is absolutely impossible for bleeding to occur.
Moreover, Consort Shun is usually very cautious, so why would she suddenly bleed?
Fucha Peiyun felt increasingly suspicious about the matter.
It seems some people can't hold back any longer and want to make a move against the children in the palace.
This Consort Shun was merely the first...
This Consort Shun was quite clever; she was able to detect the abnormality in time.
They even took the opportunity to escalate the situation, making sure everyone knew about it.
Given Consort Shun's cautious nature, she would never have taken any risks so easily.
But she was willing to take such a risk for the sake of the child in her womb, which shows how important the child was to her.
Fucha Peiyun couldn't help but sigh, "A mother's strength is boundless."
It has been a long time since any incident of harming imperial heirs has occurred in this palace.
She had just expressed her intention to save Consort Shun's pregnancy, but someone couldn't wait to make a move.
Thinking about it, it's because she's been too gentle all these years.
So much so that people completely disregarded her as the Empress of the Eastern Palace.
As for who was behind this, Fucha Peiyun knew perfectly well without even thinking.
She hesitated for a moment, then said to Xue'er, "Prepare the sedan chair, I'm going to Yanxi Palace."
Upon arriving at Yanxi Palace, all they saw was the palace itself, and there lay Consort Shun, clutching her stomach, lying on the bed, her face pale.
Xu Chengan is taking the pulse of Consort Shun.
When Consort Shun saw that Fucha Peiyun had arrived, she struggled to get up and bow to her.
Fucha Peiyun quickly stopped her, saying, "Sister, there's no need for such formalities. Just lie down and rest."
Fucha Peiyun hurried to the bedside, her face full of concern. Consort Shun's eyes reddened, and she said in a tearful voice:
"Your Majesty, I don't know why I suddenly started bleeding. Please, Your Majesty, do me justice for me and this child."
Fucha Peiyun patted her hand and comforted her:
"Don't worry, sister, I will definitely investigate this matter thoroughly."
At this moment, Xu Chengan stood up and said respectfully:
"Your Majesty, Consort Shun's bleeding is due to contact with something harmful to the fetus."
Fortunately, it was discovered in time, and the fetus is currently fine; it just needs proper care.
Fucha Peiyun's eyes sharpened, and she pressed for an answer:
"Do you know what kind of substance is harmful to the fetus?"
Xu Chengan hesitated for a moment, then said:
"It looks like safflower, but we need to investigate further."
Fucha Peiyun already had a suspect in mind, but without evidence, she couldn't act rashly.
She looked at Consort Shun and said gently:
"Sister, rest assured and take care of your pregnancy. I will send people to search Yanxi Palace carefully and find the person who harmed you."
Consort Shun nodded gratefully.
"What exactly happened? Who is so audacious as to harm the dragon fetus?"
