Chapter 712 - 712-Frightened

Translator: 549690339 |

Xiao Baoxin felt terrified just thinking about it.

Among the four concubines, except for Consort Chu and Consort Pan Xian who were pregnant, none of them were born. Consort He Shu was even worse off. She lost two lives and even her own life.

– Wait.

“You said Pan Xian is pregnant?” Xiao Baoxin was in a mess.

Xie Xian’s heart ached as he hugged Xiao Baoxin. This was a huge blow to her, and it had washed away her previous worldview. She did not even turn her head around, and she actually only understood what he was saying.

“Even if my brain wants to spin, I have to be able to do it.”Xiao Baoxin rolled his eyes.

However, this sentence contained too much information.

How did Xie Xian know about this?

At least in their circle, no one had heard about it. One had to know that once news of a concubine’s pregnancy was confirmed and her family knew about it, the entire upper class of Jiankang City would know.

“Does the emperor know?”

This question was heart-wrenching.

Xie Xian was obviously stunned. I don’t know if the emperor knows. Even if you knew, you wouldn’t tell me, right?”

“But you know.”

“Yes.”

Xiao Baoxin didn’t even want to ask. Just how many people had Xie Xian planted in the Palace? Did he use the harem as the Xie Clan’s backyard?

Of course, these were all the Xie Clan’s and Xie Xian’s strategic plans. Xiao Baoxin would at most curse in his heart and not say it out loud. That was Xie Xian’s arrangement. Xie Xian’s IQ was obviously higher than hers, so it was easy to conclude that she should shut up.

When the two of them washed up and rested, Xiao Baoxin was still not sleepy.

“Did you sleep too much today?”Xie Xian asked softly.

“Do you think the emperor knows that Shu Fei is the culprit behind the Empress ‘miscarriage?”Xiao Baoxin suddenly asked. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Xie Xian thought for a moment.” Not necessarily.”

“It might not even be Consort He Shu who did it?”

“Not her?” Xiao Baoxin sat up excitedly. Was there something wrong with her ears, or was there something wrong with her memory? “Didn’t you say it was her?”

“If it’s not her, who is it?”

Xie Xian stood up helplessly.” Don’t be agitated. You’re still pregnant. Don’t be so surprised-”

“Who is it?”

Xiao Baoxin was curious.

Don’t say that it was a human life after all, when Consort He Shu attacked Empress Xiao’s child, it was still an unformed little life, and Consort He Shu was never soft-hearted. Therefore, when she heard that Consort He Shu had lost two lives, she could only sigh and pity the child in her womb, and chill at the current situation in the palace.

And now, Xie Xian had flipped over his confession and actually said that it might not be Consort He Shu?

If it wasn’t her, then who was it?

A small harem actually had so many murderous maniacs?

Xie Xian sighed.” I only said that it might not be Consort He Shu, but the Liu Furen behind her, or rather, the He family.”

Xiao Bao Xin was stunned for a moment.” You think Consort He Shu is still young and might not be so ruthless?”

“In fact, what I want to say is that the He family might not give her such a ruthless person who can be ordered around. Of course, this is just my assumption.”

“Just like Imperial Concubine Chu, she was born in a humble family. The Chu family would not gamble on the future of the Chu family without seeing the situation clearly. After all, before Imperial Concubine Chu entered the palace, the Chu family had always been powerful.”

“The He family is completely different. The He family has already declined. If it wasn’t for the emperor ascending to the throne and pulling in his mother’s relatives, they wouldn’t have had any great achievements. These few years, it had always been Madam Liu of the second household who was in charge of the imperial court. She had sufficient reason to fully support Consort He Shu and even plot for the position of Crown Prince.”

“As for whether or not he would tell Consort He Shu about the arrangements in the Palace, this is something that no one knows.”

“The Empress is still young, and the Middle Palace might not be without children. They are actually already plotting for the position of Crown Prince?”

Xiao Baoxin felt that everything that entered Xie Xian’s mind would have all kinds of conspiracy theories. It was a brand new world that she would never have thought of before.

After all, Emperor Yong Ping had just ascended the throne. He was only fifteen or sixteen this year, right?

Xie Xian said calmly,””You can have no children or even have no concubines.”

Xiao Baoxin held his stomach and was once again shocked.

Then, she released her stomach and hugged Xie Xian tightly.”Fortunately, you like me.” Otherwise, he would probably plot against her to death. She would not even know how she died…

Well, he might know the truth, just a little bit. Or was it because she had maxed out on her innate skills?

Xie Xian laughed.

How should she put it? Fortunately, she liked him.

Otherwise, what was the meaning of his life?

Xiao Baoxin, who had maxed out his talent skills, was flushed red by these private words of love. Although he felt that Xie Xian’s world was very dangerous and terrifying, he was also very sweet.

” I think…” After a while, Xie Xian suddenly said,” “I might have to go out to sleep in the cubicle tonight.”

Xiao Baoxin’s eyes lit up. “In fact, there was no elder son to hinder this birth, so they did not need to be so self-restrained and polite.

That was not her personality.

Xie Xian could see through Xiao Baoxin’s thoughts. He wanted to, but the problem was that his body did not allow it.

Throw!

“My legs are weak and my body is a little cold. I might have caught a cold.”

In fact, Sikong was used to this feeling in the past. It was just that his body was cold, but after getting married, his body had become much stronger under Xiao Baoxin’s daily training. It had been a long time since he felt this way.

And it had to be today!

Today was the day Nora released the news!

He could only blame Emperor Yong Ping for being crazy and calling him into the palace. It was just that the weather had turned cold these few days, so he might have been recruited.

Xie Xian did not dare to stay in the room for too long and moved to the cubicle. Although Ming Yue was very familiar with it and cooked a bowl of ginger tea, Xie Xian’s illness still acted up aggressively the next morning. After a night, he even had a fever.

Mother Xie and Madam Yuan were alarmed in an instant. Before they could even send someone to the Imperial Academy of Medicine to invite the imperial physician over, Emperor Yong Ping heard the news that Xie Xian had fallen ill and immediately sent the imperial physician over.

The manor was thrown into chaos again.

Xiao Baoxin was pregnant, so she was naturally isolated. She was not even allowed to enter Xie Xian’s room.

After the imperial physician prescribed the medicine, he left. Xie Xian’s illness only recovered after seven or eight days.

At this time, the news of Consort He Shu’s death had already spread throughout the streets.

Although she was Emperor Yong Ping’s cousin, the two of them were actually not much different in age. Their birthdays were only two days apart. However, she was only fifteen years old, and her beauty was gone.

Emperor Yongping had already decreed that the imperial concubine should be buried according to her rank, and it was to be grand.

The only thing that made people suspicious was that Emperor Yong Ping had used some unknown method to appease the He family. He actually did not bite someone to death and secretly kill them. He did not beg the Emperor to issue an edict to investigate and treat it as an accident.

Other than the four eunuchs who carried Consort He Shu’s sedan chair that day, everything was the same as before.
