Zhen Huan is still in love, and her sister's goal is to become the queen mother

Chapter 255: Lady Zhang’s Illness

It was difficult for Concubine Zhang to keep her baby.

When Concubine Zhang was pregnant with Hongfang, she was depressed every day and worried too much during the confinement period, so her health gradually deteriorated.

The death of Hongfang dealt her such a heavy blow that Concubine Zhang went mad during that period.

And she had seen spotting when she was first diagnosed with pregnancy.

So many factors are enough to kill this tiny fetus.

But this noble lady was entrusted to Shen Meizhuang by the Emperor. If the child cannot be saved, Shen Meizhuang will not be able to escape the blame.

Even if there were various reasons, the emperor couldn't help but feel that Shen Meizhuang was not taking good care of her.

Now the position of imperial concubine is still vacant, and Shen Meizhuang doesn't want to leave a bad impression on the emperor.

Shen Meizhuang asked Song Qian to take care of Concubine Zhang alone, and paid for all kinds of precious medicinal materials out of her own pocket to feed Concubine Zhang. Shen Meizhuang also took every precaution to keep out those who wanted to attack Concubine Zhang's stomach.

At least we have covered the first three most dangerous months.

It’s been four months, and it’s time for the months to be stable.

Just when Shen Meizhuang breathed a sigh of relief, something went wrong with Concubine Zhang again.

"Hong Fang, my mother's Hong Fang!"

"All of you, get out of here. Don't touch my Hong Fang. You all want to take him away from me."

"Bitch, Ulanara clan, bitch!"

Listening to the constant abuse, Shen Meizhuang became numb.

When Ulanara was demoted to the cold palace, Concubine Zhang moved out of Yonghe Palace. The emperor thought that living close by would make it easier to take care of Concubine Zhang, so he arranged for her to live in Qixiang Palace.

At first, Shen Meizhuang had no objection, but as Concubine Zhang lived here for a long time, her condition became more and more abnormal.

On weekdays, Concubine Zhang was normal, still the weak and cowardly person she used to be, but once she was stimulated, even for no reason, she seemed to fall into her own world at any time.

It could be an unintentional word, an object, or even a dish that could make Concubine Zhang look dazed, and then she would become a different person.

In that state, Concubine Zhang screamed and screamed hysterically. She didn't let anyone get close to her and kept calling Hongfang while hugging a pillow.

It seemed as if Concubine Zhang really regarded the pillow as the child Hongfang, and at that, Hongfang was still an infant.

Concubine Zhang could not accept Hongfang's death, and felt very guilty for letting Ulanara take her son away.

Now, Concubine Zhang is very afraid that someone will snatch her son away. It seems that Ulanara has indeed left her with a huge psychological trauma.

However, Shen Meizhuang couldn't help but frown when looking at the situation in front of her.

Concubine Zhang was crying, her hair was messy because of herself, and there was a pillow on her pregnant belly.

In order to prevent Concubine Zhang from hurting herself, Shen Meizhuang did not allow her to wear any sharp accessories on a daily basis, and anything that might hurt her was not allowed to appear in Concubine Zhang's bedroom.

The things in Concubine Zhang's room are kept as simple as possible.

Because whenever someone showed signs of getting close to her, Concubine Zhang would take whatever she had and throw it at them.

"Get out of here! Get out! Don't even think about taking Hong Fang away from me."

"Bitch! Bitch! You are all in cahoots with the Ulanara clan."

Concubine Zhang looks like she's completely crazy.

Shen Meizhuang was watching her at the door, with two strong young guards guarding her.

Concubine Zhang is like this, sometimes lucid and sometimes crazy, and this happens every few days. It is harmful to her own body and is very bad for the dragon fetus.

Moreover, Shen Meizhuang was dissatisfied.

Concubine Zhang acted like this, and even an adult like her felt it was too noisy. What if Jinghe was still young and got scared?

Shen Meizhuang had long ago instructed Jinghe not to come to Concubine Zhang's place.

The people around Jinghe were also warned not to mention Concubine Zhang's condition in front of Jinghe, and they must protect the princess. If Concubine Zhang offended the princess, these palace servants would lose their heads.

At first, Shen Meizhuang sympathized with Concubine Zhang's pain of losing her son, but after enduring for three months, Shen Meizhuang's sympathy had been completely worn out.

And as for Hongjun, Shen Meizhuang felt a headache just thinking about him. If he knew that there was such an unstable factor in Qixiang Palace, he would probably try every means to send Concubine Zhang away.

As a son, he thinks about his mother and sister, but Shen Meizhuang has more to consider.

However, looking at Concubine Zhang's condition, she won't be able to raise the child by herself in the future, and I'm afraid the Emperor will choose a foster mother for her.

Shen Meizhuang didn't want to have anything to do with this noble lady anymore. She was being too weird.

Thinking of this, Shen Meizhuang nodded to the eunuchs waiting beside her.

The young eunuchs received the order and stepped forward immediately.

Concubine Zhang struggled and said, "What are you doing? You are so insolent! Get out of here!"

But those eunuchs were very strong, and when several of them worked together, it was impossible for a frail woman like Concubine Zhang to resist.

As Concubine Zhang was tied up and the pillow in her hand was taken away, her eyes became empty.

Seeing her like that, Shen Meizhuang also sighed with a complicated feeling.

It's also pitiful.

However, Shen Meizhuang waved her hand and said, "Everyone, leave."

"You two, keep an eye on Concubine Zhang."

Shen Meizhuang also left.

After waiting for a quarter of an hour, someone came to report.

"Mrs. Zhang is awake now."

Shen Meizhuang then rubbed her brows and said, "Untie her."

This is the fastest way to wake Concubine Zhang up. Every time Concubine Zhang falls ill and is ignored, it will take several hours.

During these hours she would make a lot of noise and smash all kinds of things, which was not only dangerous to herself but also to others.

Because Concubine Zhang often mistook people for Ulanara, she would beat and kick them in order to seek revenge, which was very dangerous.

There was no other way, Shen Meizhuang could only tie her up and have someone watch her.

This method was quite effective. After letting her stay like this for a while, she became sober.

Before, Shen Meizhuang was soft-hearted and felt that tying her up like this was a bit too much, but when Shen Meizhuang saw the destructive power of her illness, she compromised.

There was a little palace maid who was almost suffocated to death by her.

Many palace servants around Concubine Zhang found ways to leave, as no one wanted to lose their life.

Very few people were willing to serve Concubine Zhang, for fear that their lives would be in danger if Concubine Zhang fell ill.

Even though he was forced to serve Concubine Zhang due to Shen Meizhuang's power, he often did not dare to get close to her.

Only her personal maid was loyal and still served by her side, and she was the only one who had some memory of Concubine Zhang when she was ill.

Shen Meizhuang now only hopes that these ten months will pass peacefully and safely, and that Concubine Zhang will give birth to the baby and leave as soon as possible.

She was almost driven to collapse by Concubine Zhang.

She was not only torturing herself, but also the entire Qixiang Palace.
