Chapter 102 Concubine Mu has a miscarriage
When the queen heard this, she frowned slightly and a hint of dissatisfaction flashed in her eyes.
She gently put down the bowl and chopsticks in her hands, and said kindly: "Crown Princess, if you want to eat something, just ask. After all, you are pregnant now, and you can't just follow your mood. You still have to eat in moderation.
Don't let my grandson starve. Besides, as the daughter-in-law of the royal family and the crown princess, you should pay attention to your manners and rules. At this banquet, everyone was drinking happily.
You are the only one who has a poor appetite. Don't you seem out of place? Besides, didn't I specially ask someone to prepare a portion of 'plum blossom soup cake' for you? Have you tried it?"
Yan Qingwan was stunned for a moment when she heard this, then she knelt down in front of everyone and apologized: "Please forgive me, mother. I didn't mean to not eat. I just didn't have a good appetite today. I'm afraid I'll be disrespectful in front of you. Please punish me, mother!"
When the queen saw this, her expression froze. After sensing that the emperor beside her was obviously unhappy, she quickly waved her hand and asked Yan Qingwan to stand up.
The Queen said earnestly, "Well, if that's the case, then you should go back and rest early. I hope you can understand that as the Crown Princess, every move you make represents the dignity of the royal family. In the future, you should always be careful about your words and actions, so as not to give others something to talk about."
Yan Qingwan nodded repeatedly with tears of gratitude, then slowly retreated.
I had just returned to my seat, before I had time to sit down, when I heard a cry of pain not far away.
"My stomach hurts so much."
When Yan Qingwan heard the voice, he immediately raised his head and his eyes fell on the person who was speaking.
Only then did he realize that this person was the concubine Mu with whom he had just talked.
She looked surprised. What happened?
In just a short while, something happened to the person?
Could it be because of what I just ate?
Yan Qingwan's gaze fell back on the 'Plum Blossom Soup Pancake' on his desk, with a thoughtful look on his face.
At this moment, Concubine Mu fell to the ground with a pale face, covering her stomach tightly with both hands, and screaming in pain.
Princess An, who was sitting to the right of Concubine Mu, saw the blood on the ground and her eyes widened in shock.
One of the emperor's concubines nearby screamed, "There's blood...so much blood!"
The queen and the emperor who were sitting above stood up hurriedly.
The queen shouted anxiously, "Call the imperial physician! Call the imperial physician quickly!"
The eunuch next to him nodded repeatedly, then lowered his head and ran out hurriedly.
Prince An, who was not far away, saw that the one in trouble was his concubine.
He hurried over, knelt on one knee and hugged Concubine Mu into his arms, looked at her distressedly, and asked in a concerned tone: "Azhi, Azhi, how are you? Don't scare me."
Concubine Mu bit her lips tightly in pain, trying hard to suppress the discomfort in her body and not to cry.
However, tears still flowed down the corners of her eyes and fell on Prince An's robe, forming teardrops.
She stretched out her hand tremblingly and tightly grasped Prince An's sleeve. She raised her tearful face and looked at Prince An, her voice choked and weak, "Prince, Prince, I, am I dying soon? I...I...can't bear to leave you, Prince."
Her eyes were full of attachment and reluctance, which made people feel pity for her.
When Prince An saw her like this, his heart ached and he subconsciously hugged her tighter, trying to give her some warmth and comfort.
He said softly, "It will be fine. It will be fine. Don't worry, Ah Zhi. I will ask the best doctor to treat you. You will live a long life."
After saying that, Prince An turned his head and looked anxiously towards the door, urging loudly: "Where is the imperial physician? Why hasn't he arrived yet? Go and urge him!"
His tone revealed urgency and worry, and he hoped to get treatment as soon as possible.
Just then, the emperor and empress slowly walked over.
When the emperor saw the scene, his face became serious. He asked in a deep voice: "What is going on? What happened?"
His eyes scanned the surroundings sharply, as if trying to find out the truth of the matter.
Everyone felt the emperor's majesty and lowered their heads, not daring to look him in the eye.
The emperor's gaze finally fell on the queen, expecting her to give an explanation.
The queen's eyes moved slightly, and then she looked at Xunmei beside her.
Xunmei bowed slightly and said respectfully, "I will send someone to check it out right away."
After she finished speaking, she took a few steps back and turned to the corner.
Soon after, the imperial physician came in a hurry. After paying respects to the emperor and empress, he walked to Concubine Mu, half-knelt down, and examined Concubine Mu.
The people around watched this scene quietly.
After a while, the imperial physician reached out and wiped his forehead.
Seeing this, Prince An on the other side hurriedly asked, "How is it?"
The imperial physician's face darkened slightly. Hearing this, he looked at Prince An and said, "Concubine Mu's pulse shows heat stagnation inside her body. She is deficient in Qi and blood, and her heart and kidneys are weak. She is depressed and sluggish. It is a sign of miscarriage. Please accept my condolences, Your Majesty and Concubine Mu."
Upon hearing this, Prince An showed shock on his face.
He quickly turned his head and looked at Mu Fangzhi.
Mu Fangzhi also had a look of disbelief.
The two looked at each other, and then looked at the imperial physician.
Prince An asked anxiously, "Concubine Mu, did you fail to save the baby?"
Upon hearing this, the imperial physician shook his head regretfully.
Prince An showed disappointment on his face, and a trace of pain flashed in his eyes.
He took a deep breath, turned to look at Concubine Mu beside him, and said softly: "Azhi..."
Before he could finish his words, Concubine Mu suddenly hugged him and threw herself into his arms, crying loudly.
After Prince An came to his senses, he couldn't help but hug her and burst into tears.
When everyone around saw this scene, they were all stunned. They didn't expect that Concubine Mu was pregnant without knowing it.
Concubine Duan in the crowd was stunned for a moment, then turned to look at her sister.
Concubine Li felt her gaze and couldn't help but glance at her, then she looked away indifferently.
Concubine Duan suppressed the panic in her heart and quietly withdrew her gaze.
Yan Qingwan, who had been at his seat, saw this scene and suddenly said, "Imperial Physician."
When the imperial physician heard the call, he looked at the person who was speaking, then he cupped his hands and said respectfully, "Crown Princess."
Yan Qingwan ignored the eyes around him.
She reached out and picked up the already cold 'Plum Blossom Soup Cake' in front of her, walked slowly forward and handed it to him, and said in a deep voice: "Please ask the imperial physician to take a look. The reason why Concubine Mu had a miscarriage is because of this."
The imperial physician looked at the bowl of soup in Yan Qingwan's hand in confusion, then reached out to take it respectfully and tasted a little.
Then he looked at Yan Qingwan with a serious expression.
Then he turned around and knelt down in front of the emperor.
He said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, the reason is clear. This 'Plum Blossom Soup Cake' contains light bamboo leaves. This light bamboo leaves has the effect of clearing away heat and relieving restlessness, as well as promoting diuresis and relieving stranguria. However, pregnant women should avoid using it. If taken carelessly, it will cause miscarriage."
