Comprehensive Qing wear good luck

Chapter 183 Chang Zai's Promotion 13

In the harem, everyone is an enemy. If you are favored, it becomes a reason for others to target you. If you are not favored, you become an object of bullying and exploitation.

She was favored, while Concubine Jia was pregnant but received no pity from Emperor Qianlong. It was impossible for Concubine Jia to blame Qianlong, so he naturally took his anger out on her. There was nothing he could do about it, because she was a newcomer and her position was low!

"System, you just said that the baby in Concubine Jia's belly is not in good condition, right?"

"Yes, her frequent pregnancies are too damaging to the children."

"Will she be able to give birth to this baby?"

"If you take good care of it, it should be able to give birth, but it won't grow big."

Ji Huan's eyes flickered slightly, she couldn't hold it anymore!

Then Jihuan called Shuxiang over.

"This pregnancy of Concubine Jia is not good. Please have someone tell Nanny Chen and have her spread the news."

She told Nanny Chen in order to make her happy and give her more hope, and also to spread the word that she had no intention of harming the child, even if she couldn't raise the child. However, she was afraid that Concubine Jia would commit fraud!

What if Concubine Jia is the kind of ruthless person who dares to use her belly to frame others? She just had some verbal disagreements with Concubine Jia.

When Nanny Chen learned that Concubine Jia's pregnancy was not good, she was very happy. Then she began to persuade Concubine Shu as instructed, using her connections to spread the rumor that Concubine Jia's pregnancy was not good and she might not be able to give birth.

The news spread like wildfire.

When Concubine Jia heard the news, she was so angry that she threw a lot of things: "What's going on? Who spread the news that my pregnancy is not going to be good?"

"Your Majesty, the news started from behind the rockery in the Imperial Garden. I am incompetent and have not found out who did it."

"Forget it. I have good intentions. This kind of thing is indeed not easy to investigate. But I am afraid that this pregnancy of mine will make the emperor unhappy. The eighth prince was born at a bad time. I can only be responsible for this pregnancy myself."

Concubine Jia had already given birth to two sons safely, so she naturally had a trustworthy imperial physician. How could she not know that even if this baby could be born, it would be difficult to raise it? She originally wanted to find a scapegoat, but now it seems that she may not be able to find one.

When Qianlong came over, Ji Huan said worriedly: "Your Majesty, I met Concubine Jia privately a few days ago and paid my respects to her. I felt that Concubine Jia didn't look very well. Now there are constant rumors in the harem that Concubine Jia is pregnant. When I thought that it was Your Majesty's child, I felt worried. I am going to Yuanmingyuan soon. Why don't you call a few more doctors to check on Concubine Jia."

Qianlong: "Rumors? What rumors?!"

Ji Huan explained: "The emperor has been busy with many things in the past two days. Suddenly, there have been many rumors in the harem saying that Concubine Jia is pregnant and it looks bad. Although I am not very close to Concubine Jia, I can't help but worry when I think that she is pregnant with the emperor's child. Regardless of whether the rumors are true or not, it will not be wrong to find a few more imperial doctors to take a look."

Qianlong was pleased: "My beloved concubine is thoughtful. When Concubine Jia knows about this, she will also be grateful for your kindness. I will arrange for a few more imperial doctors to diagnose Concubine Jia's pulse."

"This way, I can feel more at ease."

The next day, Qianlong called Li Yu.

"What's the matter with the rumor in the harem that Concubine Jia is pregnant?"

"Your Majesty, I have just heard this rumor. I have just found out the truth and am about to report it to Your Majesty."

"Who spread it?"

"It's Empress Shufei."

"Is it Concubine Shu? Concubine Rou didn't interfere?"

"I have not found any trace of Lady Rou."

"That's right. She has only been in the palace for a short time, so she probably can't do it. Let's arrange two trusted doctors to go with me to see Concubine Jia!"

Since Concubine Jia can give birth, he can't just ignore her belly. That's his child. No matter what the calculations are, he really needs to know the details.

So, Noble Concubine Xian and Noble Concubine Chun took action to suppress the rumor, and Concubine Jia welcomed Emperor Qianlong and two imperial physicians.

Concubine Jia bowed and said: "I have met the Emperor. May the Emperor be blessed with good health and happiness."

"You're carrying a child, sit down and talk."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

"I heard that you were not pregnant well, so I brought two doctors to see you. Doctor Zhao, Doctor Zhang, come and check Concubine Jia's pulse."

Qianlong came suddenly and used two imperial doctors whom she had not bribed. Concubine Jia knew immediately that the imperial doctors she had bribed might be in trouble.

Although she was unhappy in her heart, Concubine Jia looked happy on the surface: "Thank you very much, Your Majesty, for your concern."

As she spoke, she obediently stretched out her hand and waited for the imperial physician to feel her pulse. The two imperial physicians took turns feeling her pulse and then told her that Concubine Jia's pregnancy was indeed not good and she needed to stay in bed and rest. Even so, the baby would be weak when born.

Although the imperial physician's words were vague, Qianlong still understood that the child might not grow up.

Although she was sad, Qianlong comforted her: "Take good care of your pregnancy. It's been a long journey to Yuanmingyuan, and my beloved concubine should rest in the palace."

Qianlong still wanted to save this child who might not grow up. Although the journey to the Old Summer Palace was not far, it still required a bumpy car ride. He thought that Concubine Jia should not go.

Concubine Jia paused and said, "I thank the emperor for considering me and my child. I will definitely take good care of the baby in my belly."

Qianlong thought about her situation and said, "My beloved concubine is thoughtful. I can rest assured now. By the way, who was the imperial physician who diagnosed Concubine Jia's pulse before?"

The second half of the sentence was directed at Li Yu.

Li Yu immediately replied: "It's Wang Xingde from the Imperial Hospital, Doctor Wang."

"Doctor Wang's medical skills are not good. Concubine Jia is pregnant and it is not appropriate for her to see blood. He will be expelled from the Imperial Hospital and will not be allowed to enter the Imperial Hospital within three generations."

Concubine Jia was reluctant to part with her trusted imperial physician, so she immediately said, "Your Majesty, Imperial Physician Wang..."

Qianlong interrupted: "My beloved concubine has a kind heart, I know, but Doctor Wang can't even tell the signs of my pregnancy. If such a doctor stays in the Imperial Hospital, it would be a waste of my salary. The doctor's poor medical skills have caused harm to people's lives. My beloved concubine, please don't ask for mercy."

When Concubine Jia heard Qianlong's warning, she dared not say anything more.

As we all know, Qianlong didn't like people disobeying him.

"Yes, I will obey your Majesty."

Qianlong patted her hands with satisfaction.

Since Emperor Qianlong had stamped the pregnancy as bad, Concubine Jia could no longer use this pregnancy to harm others.

In addition, she had lost an important imperial physician, and it would not be easy to bribe another one.

Also, she couldn't go to the Old Summer Palace. Qianlong liked to stay there, which meant that she might not see Qianlong for most of the next six months.

There are many concubines in the harem, each with her own merits. Although Concubine Jia is good-looking, there are always better ones. Not seeing her for a long time means that her favor is no longer as good as before.

After Jihuan found out, he happily ate half a bowl more of rice.

She didn't like people jumping in front of her. Originally, she hadn't thought of anyone like Concubine Jia, but there was nothing she could do. Who made her dance in front of her?

After Qianlong left, Concubine Jia frowned and said, "Go and find out for me who spread the news."

She suffered a heavy loss this time. It was so difficult to find a trusted imperial physician. She had been in the palace for many years and had only bribed one. Now she felt extremely insecure.

"Yes, ma'am."

On the other side, Shu Fei knew the result and smiled with satisfaction.

After knowing that her infertility was caused by the bondservant concubines, she hated these bondservant concubines in the harem to the core. When Concubine Jia was in trouble, she wanted to set off firecrackers to celebrate.
